Apart from, it is not C# code, it allways returns "false"!

Hi all,
Is there a way to create an outlook appointment (Outlook 2003) from ASP.net /C#/ or vb.net (framework 1.1) via active directory? For example a user A could create an appointment for user B while User B information comes from active directory.

regards,
hoomydoomy

User A needs access to B's Exchange mailbox, usually that is the main problem.
All you have to do is get the mailbox alias from ADS and then create the Appointment object via CDOEx or WebDAV. the folder uri of a user's calendar is:
http://servername/exchange/mailbox-alias/localizedFoldername

how to create multiple datagrid in runtime

5-Jul-07 22:57

You can use DirectoryInfo to iterate through the contents of a folder.

Not sure how you would determine which letter represents the CD drive, but you should be able to figure that out. Hope this helps. Smile | :)

you can do it by

DataGrid dg1 = new DataGrid();
this.Controls.Add(dg1);

on Form1_load method,but u have to check the locations of datagrids added
so that they should not overlap each other

Good day.

I've been working with C# for the last few months and really like it a lot.
TheCodeProject has really helped me progress quickly and get up to scratch quickly
by offering top quality post that are direct and easy to follow.

I've been working on a new project and was wondering how you you would customize a
form? I would like to give my form round corners or make the border transparent etc.

I've been looking around all over the pace but can't find anything about the topic.

I know TheCodeProject.com has brilliant programmers writing here so I'm sure someone can
answer my question.

Thanks in advance

How to store and retrieve enum values in Database

Hi.

I have some enums generated from xsd files, which I'll use intensively in my program.

One task involves storing data into a database, including these enum values. The field type of the database which is use for this table is text.

How should I store, and more importantly retrieve the values of the enums?

How could I convert from string to a custom enum type?

Thanks.

Hello,

As enum is int Type it makes no sence to store it as a text I guess!
I would cast it to (int)MyEnum.
But you should use fixed values for your enum, which is important for consistance after updates!

All the best,

Martin

Ok, so for example if I have this enum(mind the syntax):

Dog - 1
Cat - 2
Flying Squirrel - 3

and I store in the database values 1,2 or 3, is it possible after I retrieve these values to convert 1 to Dog, 2 to Cat and 3 to Flying Squirrel?

Thanks.

Hello,

Just do the casting in the other direction.

int dbvalue = ?;

FancyAnimals dbFancyAnimals = (FancyAnimals)dbvalue;

All the best,

Martin

Re: How to store and retrieve enum values in Database

Sure, simply cast them to the enumeration and it will work! Smile | :)

enum Numbers
{
	One = 1,
	Two = 2,
	Three = 3
}

class Program
{
	static void Main(string[] args)
	{
		for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++)
		{
			Numbers n = (Numbers) i;
			Console.WriteLine(n.ToString());
		}
	}
}

Cheers,
Vıkram.

I think he's talking about the names of the enumeration values. For instance:

enum Numbers
{
	One = 1,
	Two = 2,
	Three = 3
}

He wants to store "One", "Two", and "Three" in the database and somehow use them to get 1, 2, and 3. I used something like this at my previous company, but I don't remember now. D'Oh! | :doh:

Right. I want to store "One", "Two", "Three" and retrieve whatever values are required to correctly fill the enum variables in my program.

Sorry for the confusion.
