Re: Console App - Scheduled Task - Text File

Does the task scheduler display an error code next to the task when it runs? Also, check the Application event log around that time and see if there are any errors (although as Eddy mentioned, it's a very good idea to catch any exceptions and log them for later debugging - but the Event Viewer might display the exception as well).

Also make sure nothing else has the text file open when the scheduled task runs.

Searching Content of Documents in Database

Hi all,
If I were an employer searching for resumes which contain skill sets that match my search criteria, how is that done from a programmer's perspective. Can we actually go inside of text documents in a database and search their contents? If not, I will have to add a Skills field to the database so that it can be searched. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Maybe. It depends on the datatype. For instance, if they are stored as VARCHAR(MAX) then you can use something as simple as LIKE.

You might get better answers in the database forum.

Hi,

For a WinForm (C#) application, how can I have a search textbox similar to the facebook search textbox with a watermark text (type customker name)?

Thanks

You could check the properties of the textbox object to see what options are available. However your question is not very clear, please give more detail of what you are trying to achieve.

One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

You may wish to start here[^]. I'm guessing that there were changes to the interface implemented between the two versions, so you'll probably have the make some changes in the way you make your calls. I don't know actionscript, but I know COMs, so hopefully this can help you along the way.

That could be a firewall setting on the "server" (192.168.0.6). Disable the firewall completely for testing purposes; if it works, configure the firewall so that it accepts WMI.

Assuming this really is your first time using c# I suggest you google for "c# hello world". Which is a console app.

Are you sure that your program is running under the same user whose start menu you're looking at?

It's possible that you have Visual Studio running as an admin while you're logged in as a different user, and when you hit "debug," it runs the program as admin.

The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Most barcode scanners will provide the decoded barcode for any barcode they support. May be a better option than requiring a camera for your users.

Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS.
