Hi,

Here we are facing problem which i am describing as below.
We are having scanned image but this image is skewed at some angle (we don know the angle) and may be shifted / translated sometimes.Our goal is to find out the Rectangle of predefined height and width by which we can get the 4 end points of Ractangle.Here color of that Rectangle is Pure Black and backggroud color is white.Here we are having only one Regular Rectangle in an image and our image is black and white.
so let's know the methods of finding End point co-ordinate of that Rectangle.

Thanks in Advance.

regards.,

Hi,
I need to add a MenuItem into the Operating System ContextMenu that works just for a specific client application. For example when i right click on a field of my client i need it to show me the standard contextmenu (with cut, copy, past ect.) along with a personal menuitem in a specific position...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance, and keep in mind i'm a real newbye in programming Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

You can add contextMenu...in registry.
In fact you can add menu, button in IE, etc.
MSDN related this...

This requires COM interop and shell integration. Search codeproject for "C# does shell" and you should get some helpful hits.

Any remotely useful information on my blog will be removed immediately.

An additional point. Many forums, including this one, offer the ability to receive email when someone post a reply to a question you asked in a forum. That is quite quick.

Well, I'd rather not. And I'll tell you why.

If I did this to everyone who could possibly want assistance I'd never get anything done. I'd be spending all my day giving out free advice.

You should post your questions in the relevant forums like this one and someone who has the time to answer your question will help you. You might ask a question that has many possible answers and by posting in a forum you will get multiple replies with the different possibities. You can then choose the answer that fits best with your situation. You benefit by posting in forums by getting a broader range of answers than a one-on-one session in MSN or Yahoo.

Finally, and this is the best reason, forums are searchable. That means that if someone has a similar problem they can search for the answer. Searching for the answer is a most valuable skill.

I don't think so! None us here who answer questions regularly are "on call" to answer peoples questions right when they need them answered. We do this in our spare time and we don't get paid to do it. The last thing I need is another "pager" sitting on my hip.

There are hundreds of people (or even more) logging in to CP forums everyday.
From my experience, these people will always try to help whenever they're able to and share their knowledge. Heck, some of them even go the extra step on finding out stuff they don't know about.
I'm sure it'll be quick enough for you to post a question and browse Google and MSDN for more information while waiting for someone to answer your post.

PS: Make your questions short, precise, clear, AND polite so others will be more inclined to answer them.

hi all
Reasons given by all of u are correct but i have some more reasons.
So days ago, i have a problem in inserting data into the table of SQL Server through C#. I tried it many times, posted it on another forum ( not cp ). after many hours , i got the response, and the problem was that i was missing only a comma in the string. This was a very short problem, had it been corrected quickly, it may have taken me only five minutes to complete my task, which otherwise took many hours. Many times such things happen. For this type of things i am asking for some kind persons to add me.

For longer problem , i agree that they must be posted on the CP so that other people can also be benefited by them. And there must be many possible solutions that come as a output for that big problem. But for small problems like the one mentioned above, i donot think that there are many solutions for that, and if it takes hours to solve problem like mentioned in above para, then i think its better to leave the software engg and start so other work.

As for as the point that no one can help other instananiously, because no one is free..... i will only say that if a person can come to cp and spend his hours to answer the queries, then that person can also spend seconds to answer questions like described in first para, ask from them on the messenger.

Now i think that, if there are some kind persons available there in this forum, then they will surely add me to their messenger list in order to solve the short problem of their younger brother....

Looking for very much health response...

Hi,

Does any body know how to take SQL Sever 2000 or Access Database backup in c#.net? Mean what program we write in c#.net to take whole database [Table,Relation etc] backup.

Please help me...

For Access, it's simply a matter of copying the .mdb file (via File.Copy). With SQL Server, it's a bit more complicated, you have lots of options, but the two simplest are:
1. Execute a "DUMP DATABASE" or "BACKUP DATABASE"
2. Use SQLDMO. There are lots of articles teaching how to use SQLDMO in C#, search on Google and you'll find it.

Yes, even I am blogging now!

It depends what you mean by "change": if you want to keep data in sync, you could use SQL Server's replication (I believe that Access also support it, but I'm not sure).
If by "change", you mean changes in the database structure, I'd suggest you to use a product like "SQL Compare".
