As far as I know, you cannot connect to SQL Server without connecting to any database. So try to fill the Initial catalog (for example, master database).
If that does not help, please post the error message you receive.

Hello
Chopeen is right! You should connect to master database if you want to connect directly to the database, or any other INFORMATION_SCHEMA if you want to get info about existing databases. Yet, I must remind you not to edit/add/remove anything to the master database or any other default database. This is considered dangerous and inappropriate.

Hi
You can connect to a SQLServer without specifing any Database.Just skip the Initial Catalog part and every thing will be fine.
If you are using windows authentication you should not include user name and password(That's why we use windows authentication  )

well nima i've already tried this approach but it still doesn't work
could this problem be solved after i use MSDE? i'm not using it right now.
anyway thanks for your reply.

Hi
You should omit the whole part (there should be no Initial Catalog in your connection string) something like :
<br />
string connectionString="Data Source=.;user=sa;pwd=sa";<br />
That's it.
I'm not sure about MSDE I've used this on SQL Server 2000 and It's working fine (but I didn't check it using windows authentication)
Try connecting to your server using Visual Studio Server Exlorer and don't enter any database then take a look at its connection string.(It seems that using this way a connection to default database is established)

hello
i've solved the problem in another way.
string ConnectionString="Integrated Security=SSPI;"+"Initial Catalog=;"+"Data Source=.;";
thanks for your efforts.
however there is another problem.
an error occurs when i run the create database query that is
string sql="CREATE DATABASE my_db ON PRIMARY"
+"(Name=test_data, filename='C\\mysql\\mydb_data.mdf', size=3"
+"maxsize=5, filegrowth=10%)log on"
+"(name=mydb_log, filename='C\\mysql\\mydb_log.ldf', size=3"
+"maxsize=20, filegrowth=1)";
the error is
"invalid use of the option maxsize in the CREATE/ALTER DATABASE statement"
can u tell me what i'm doing wrong with the query??

what is the most important factor to consider when overloading and overriding in c#?
|
|
|
|
|
When overloading methods, one thing to keep in mind is consistency of the API.
For example, suppose we have a method DoSomething() that ultimately requires an integer parameter and, optionally, string and boolean parameters. One way we could do this is the following:
void DoSomething(int required1);
void DoSomething(string option1, int required1);
void DoSomething(bool option2, string option1, int required1);
While this technically works, it's not a consistent API. How often are users going to have to consult their documentation to remember the order in which parameters are expected? Even worse, imagine that your optional parameters are of the same type. How easy would it be then to accidentally swap arguments passed to the method? Yes, Intellisense helps, but it's not a substitute for a simple API and, besides, not everyone uses Visual Studio.
Consistency further applies to the default values of those optional parameters. In general, "missing" parameters should have the same default value in each overloaded method.
When overriding methods, an important thing to keep in mind is maintaining the semantics of the base class method. That is, when a base class marks a method as virtual it expects that method to behave within certain constraints, despite the fact that the derived class can theoretically do whatever it likes within that method. For example, in a file stream hierarchy it might be that the ReadByte() method throw an exception if called before the Open() method. For a Windows Forms control it might be that the overridden OnClicked() method in the derived class must call the base class method (in order for the Clicked event to be fired).
For the developer of the API, maintaining semantics means documenting, in detail, the expectations of derived classes with respect to overriding methods. For the user of the API, it means ensuring derived classes meet those expectations.

Can somebody translate this vb.net code to its c# equivalent.
Public Class ColorRange
Private _high As Color = Nothing
Private _low As Color = Nothing
Public Property Low() As Color
Get
Return _low
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Color)
_low = Value
End Set
End Property
Public Property High() As Color
Get
Return _high
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Color)
_high = Value
End Set
End Property
Public Sub New()
End Sub
Public Sub New(ByVal low As Color, ByVal high As Color)
_low = low
_high = high
End Sub
Public Shadows Function ToString() As String
Return String.Format("{0}, {1}", _low, _high)
End Function
End Class

I've never worked with VB.NET but after a quick glance at the code I think I could easily translate this within a few minutes. So why don't you feel able to do this? Don't be that lazy!

public class ColorRange<br />
{<br />
private Color _high = Color.Empty;<br />
private Color _low = Color.Empty;<br />
<br />
public Color Low<br />
{<br />
get { return low; }<br />
set { _low = value; }<br />
}<br />
<br />
public Color High<br />
{<br />
get { return high; }<br />
set { _high = value; }<br />
}<br />
<br />
public void New()<br />
{<br />
}<br />
<br />
public void New(Color low, Color high)<br />
{<br />
_low = low;<br />
_high = high;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public override string ToString()<br />
{<br />
return String.Formt("{0},{1}",_low,_high);<br />
}<br />
}
By the way I don't even know VB but figured the C# code out easily. So you could do it. Don't be lazy and give a try next time

thanks guys. I just started using c# from vb6. I have tried to convert it already. i just want to double check it if what i have done was right 
thanks

Well, i have created a localized version of the well known "DescriptionAttribute" attribute that derived from System.ComponentModel.DescriptionAttribue. This attribute loads the description from the resource file (you may see the SRDescriptionAttribute code in Reflector). However, when i switch a language at runtime - the old description still are shown and only descriptions that i access for the first time use the new language.
Unfortunately the "public override string Description" property is not even executed when an already loaded description is accessed again.
Any solution about how to make the system get the description again BUT NOT from the cache?
Thanks in advanced, ilan!

I have an app that launches another app. I dont want to return out of my function until the second app has exited. So Im using a while loop. But the first application needs repainting if you move the second app around on the screen. When I call invalidate in each pass it cleans up the garbage but does not draw controls. I see place holders of where buttons and other controls should be.
<br />
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();<br />
startInfo.FileName = "InstallIDS.exe";<br />
Process process = Process.Start(startInfo);<br />
<br />
while (!process.HasExited)<br />
{<br />
Thread.Sleep(500);<br />
this.Invalidate(true);<br />
}<br />

You need to start the second process within a seperate thread for the first to remain responsive. I would question why you need to design it this way though. Are there other actions taht the user can be doing while the second process is running? Perhaps starting the second process in a hidden window would work for you.
only two letters away from being an asset

Thanks for the reply. I dont want the user to interact with the first process while the second process is running. I have a function that disables all the controls. So I think I will use that with a new thread.
I was hoping to let the parent form look responsive even though they couldnt do anything until the 2nd process was done. Its and application that launches installers and it also can delete files.. so I dont want them clicking on a button that could delete parts of something that their currently installing..

hey guys - i need a wee bit of help here
i need to write an application that sits in the system tray. the application monitor a given application by passing it a handle to it. The application must then "look" for any Edit fields and check for a postcode. if it finds a valid postcode the application must then attempt to "auto fill" the other applications input boxes in?
Im guessing im going to need to do some Win32 Introp programming here....
can anyone point me in the right direction?

but if i don't change anything it isn't appear, do anybody know how can i fix this error?

Hello
This error appears when you try to rebuild your project while it's still runing. Close your application if you were running it. If not then you'd might need to rebbot and then rebuild again.
If this happens all the time, this means that you're application doesn't close when you close it. Maybe some thread is still alive and you didn't abort it. Otherwise if you try to build while the exe file is running, this is normal.

hello maryam, i think you dont have write permission on the drive you're trying to compile on "creating your .exe file" try to delete "Charge1.exe" from debug folders "you dont get a problem when you run it without changing the source code cuz you're running the compiled executable file!" to clean previous objects, try Build > Clean Solution, Build > Build Solution
good luck maryam

Hello everyone!
Back to C#, I don't wanna forget the language... 
Hey, anyways, the last time I used it I was in VS 2003, now I'm in 2005... I know 2005 uses .NET 2.0, but not many people have that, so how can I make it use 1.0 or 1.1? Thanks!
