Re: converting a visual C# code itno an .exe format

Just press F6, and if you dont have any compilation errors, you should find it in your solution's debug/bin folder.

unfortunatly, for people to run your app, the need to have the .Net redistributable run-time environment

I'm not sure about Vista although I would think they already have at least the .Net Framework ver 2.0 already packed. For XP. SP2 is usually equipped with .Net Framework 1.1, but to run later versions of .Net apps, you need to have the equivalant run-time environment.

I usually ask my clients to download this, and I suppose you do the same. It should run fine then.

well, one of the first things you learn about programing is that you COMPILE things.. things like code.. or resources.. yes.. you COMPILE them..
so tell me.. how did you learn c# without COMPILING any code?!..

life is study!!!

You should go out and buy a book on C#. This is the first of many basic things you'll find yourself getting lost on if you try to rely solely on online forums to learn a language.

In web. config:

<connectionStrings><br />
    <add name="ConnectionName" connectionString="blah blah blah"/><br />
 </connectionStrings>

In the app:

<br />
ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionName"].ConnectionString;<br />

I'm using MySQL for adb at the moment so i removed the connection string stuff

ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings will only help in reading the text in ConnectionStrings section.
To read in appsettings use ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.Get("Name")
Hope this helps

Wouldn't this work for you?

string cs = Form1.Properties.Settings.Default["connectionstring"];

Where you replace Form1 with the namespace of your application.

I am doing a windows application.. I was working well with it and suddenly a form shows error...

i am using stored procedures to insert and retrieve data ...and it seems that the stored procedure is correct..

in C#.net code

command.ExecuteNonQuery();

the error handler points to this and puts error

"Failed to convert parameter value from a String to a Int32."

sajan ss, This error says that you mistakenly provide String instead of int to stored procedure.

Could you give us more code for analyze.
I want to get the listing where you are filling the stored procedure parameters and signature of calling stored procedure.

There's not much you're showing from your code, but if you're sure the error is fired exactly from that line, then double check your stored procedure parameter values and make sure the types are matching.

Cheers,

The installer IS the uninstaller. Your program will get added to the add/remove programs list when you install it

Thanks for ur reply..

Yah i know that my program will get added to the add/remove programs list when i install it. But i dont want to uninstall it from control panel. I want to uninstall it from start menu.

Thanks

Just add a shortcut of the uninstaller to the right folder
Drive:\Documents and Settings\YourUser\Start Menu\Programs\YourAppFolder\Uninstall.exe //for a specific user "usually current by matching the current user System.Environment.UserName with the special folder"
or:
Drive:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\YourAppFolder\Uninstall.exe //for all users

ps. Of course you'll have to check your folders locations using System.Environment.SpecialFolder.ProgramFiles

All you have to do is add ashortcut with the command line to invoke msiexec</code. with the <code>/x option and the correct .MSI file name OR Product Code.

msiexec /x filename.msi

msiexec /x productcode
