Dear Expert,

Is there any solution or Programming method to develop reports without using Crystal reports in C#.

You can use SSRS SQL Server Reporting Services with Report Builder. Also I have used ActiveReports several years back and would say it was once of the best experience. At the time I was working on a project replacing Crystal Reports with it.

I wonder if I can use some classes to develop reports, I need a dynamic report, that user can request same report in multiple design.

Active Reports would be my recommendation. But I would suggest that you download a free copy and test it before you buy the full version.

Choke cough spit you are really living up to your sig. Imagine inflicting Access on the poor bastard as a reporting tool, what a nightmare. Not as bad as CR but still has to be one of the lousiest choices.

Best way to Sync data

Hi,

I have a WinForm C# application with MySQL backend on the server in the company. The application needs to sync with a database on Web.

I thought of adding a is_synced field for the fields needs to be updated but then how can I sync? do I need to SELECT using the first mysql_local_connection and loop through avalable records then connect within the loop to mysql_cloud_connection and do the INSERT?

--> connect to mysql_local_connection
--> SELECT records need to be synced

--> While looping
--------> connect to mysql_cloud_connection
--------> INSERT or UPDATE
--> end loop

is this the best way to do it?

Thanks,
Jassim

If you want the best way to do this, then make sure your data is bound (Use binding[^]) and the Mode for binding is set to TwoWay, also that you're application is capturing every key stroke event and is updating the source by the target data (input). And once user has finished the work, commit the changes back to the database (this would ensure less latency delays).

Then you will be able to ensure (hopefully) that the data is synchronized among your Win Forms application and you MySQL database.

If you do not use data binding, then chances are that you're going handle events, create another background object to hold the data, then inside that class use other interfaces to commit data changes to database and so on. So, better is to use bindings.

comparing the columns of two tables

I'm sorry if I'm wrong section...
I'm doing an application in C#. I have two tables "Audience" and "Schedule" in the database. These tables have the column "Number", which store different values. I need to select from the first table "Audience" in the column "Number" all the values that are not found in the column "Number" table "Schedule" and results displayed in dataGridView. Tell me please how to make a select? how to write a SQL query?

Re: comparing the columns of two tables

Peter Leow3-Apr-15 3:01

Use NOT EXISTS in the WHERE clause of the SQL, e.g.

SQL

SELECT * FROM audience a
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT * FROM schedule s WHERE a.number = s.number)

You can only have on DataReader open per Connection. Close the previous reader, or open a new connection.

You should also wrap the SqlConnection, SqlCommand and SqlDataReader objects in using blocks:

using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
using (SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Graphik", con))
{
    con.Open();
    using (SqlDataReader dr = com.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection))
    {
        ...
    }
}

This ensures that the resources get cleaned up even if there is an exception.

Also, unless you're using .NET 1.0 or 1.1, you should replace ArrayList with List<DbDataRecord>:
List<T> Class (System.Collections.Generic)[^]

Merge with uEye cam capture program c# with c# socket programming (Server Only)

Hi sir's/mam's

My question is somewhat simple to all i think but here is my problem. I have 2 program in c# using Visual Studio to program this software . But my problem is now i don't know how to merge/implement this both software and make it work.

2 programs are :
1 : uEye ActiveX Demo
2 : c# Socket threading socket programming (server only)

What Should it work for? (if you gonna ask)
=> it should work for connecting from client to server . the client will send a message , (probably an hexadecimal code), and the server will read and accept instruction to capture a picture and save it into the server's file folder it self.

so how to attach this both files and make it work?
Please Help

That is a code dump - and one that tells us nothing about your actual problem.
I'm guessing that you have found some code on the internet which you think will do what you want, but you have no idea how to use it or integrate it into your app - but I can;t be sure.

If that is the case, then that's down to you - we aren't here to deal with that kind of thing.
If it isn't, then get rid of the code dump, explain what you have tried, where you are stuck, what help you need. And only show us the code fragments relevant to that!

Would you want to wade through that lot without that info? Because I don't!

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
