What do you mean "it doesn't work?" Does it throw an error, does it return nothing? When posting a question be as descriptive as possible.

Anybody has can help me?
Have you tried setting a breakpoint on the return to see what the values in your permissions ArrayList? If it doesn't throw an error, maybe you aren't returning anything from your database.

Hello,
When I said it doesn't work, I get an NullReferenceException. But, if I put the same code somewhere else and try it in runtime, it works perfectly. It returns all the strings I want from the database. So, the code is right, but doesn't work in design mode, with the usercontrol.
I get the NullReferenceException at the line
ArrayList permissions = DataBase.GetPermissions();
Thanks
Peterson

Peterson Luiz,
I think you just answered your own question. By the sounds of it, you're trying to view information in design mode when you don't have a database connection.
Either, put the below at the top of your method to stop the method accessing the database:
If (DesignMode)<br />
return;
OR. When ever you call the object DataBase, check if its null and create a new instance.
Regards,
Gareth.

Hi,
How do we decide which data provider to use from ADO.NET?
How do I decide if I need to use SQLClient or Oledb data provider for my SQL Server database.
The answer that I got for this question from my collegues is that "coz SQL Client is optimized to be used for SQL Server", is that the only reason?
Regards,
Blumen

Hi Blumen,
Yes, the SQL set of classes are designed for SQL Server and the OleDb are for Access.

OleDB uses OLE DB providers underneath which can connect to SQL Server, Access, CSV files and so on. It was not solely or optimised "for Access" as you seem to imply.

So whats the point in having so many data providers, ODBC for example?

That is why I hate people who do the whole social networking thing, such as facebook or myspace. 95% of them are just pathetic, very un-intelligent people who are begging to be accepting and "definded" by anyone or anything. These are the people who have to add 100's of people to their "friends list," people whom they don't or barely know. They think that their MySpace page layout, graphics, and the sh*tty music they play there says a lot about their personality.

Have tried searching Google[^]? As I saw someone say yesterday, one of the most important skills a developer should have, is the ability to research on your own.

if i understand your question all you need to know is your current ip address and your subnet mask.

Short of using your subnet and attempting to ping all the possible combinations, there's no easy way.

Hi
I am working on a desktop application using C#.NET. I am using Crystal Reports for reporting. At a certain point in application I change the culture of CurrentThread.i.e
//System.Globalization.CultureInfo abc = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US");
//System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = abc;
This change is reflected in the application and of course in crystal Reports. When I set the Date Format of CurrentThread.
//System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern = this.DataSet.DataTable[0]["dt_format"].ToString();//this is date format e.g dd/MM/yyy
The change is reflected in tha application but my crystal reports donot reflect any changes. How can I make Crystal Report to take effect of this change. Is there a way this change can be reflected to crystal reports as well.
Can anybody help me what I should do?
I will be really grateful.

i have developed a windows service.
This service updates a sql express database. On running the service, the service gets hang and the event viewer shows .sqlexpection.
Is there any way i can debug an installed service. I dont have .net ide installed in the system where service is isntalled. More over the sql express database is in another system. Can you tell me what should be the connection string, if the server name is dev-sqlx and db name is report
thanks and regards

You'll likely have to introduce a Thread.Sleep() in the service code to give you enough time to attach your debugger to the process.
I've never tried to debug a service remotely. You can google for the connection string.

i just want to activate the debugger before the service crashes.. is there any specific way in windows to activate this?
|

Put a System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch() call in your code where you want the debugger to start.
