hello everybody:
i am new to VB.net I have to design a custom web server control which validates itself on client side and server-side. which means that i would not use a seperate custom validator for validation, but it should be a part of the custom control itself.and this validation would be done on clientside first, and incase javascript is off in browser then validation is done on server side.
The description of the custom control is as follows:
its a date control which has 3 dropdowns(dds).one for month, second for days and third for days.it has two properties isDOB(boolean) and getDate which returns the date in the format mm/dd/yyyy.
one method setDate which takes the string inn the format mm/dd/yyyy.This will set date according to the input string.
can somebody point me to the rite direction.any help would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks
Cheers!

Hi, Im a pretty experienced VBA programmer trying to make the leap to VB.NET. Im working on my first real vb.net project and Im getting a little stuck. I have 2 tables, a Contact table and a Call table. Each record in the Contact table has multiple corresponding records in the Call table. I would like my form to display a Contact record and all the corresponding Call records. The way I would do this in VBA is I would have a main form with the contact info and then make a continuous subform with all the Call records that I would insert onto the main form. Then I would just link the primary key fields. Unfortunately there do not appear to be subforms in vb.net 
I tried using a GridView control, but I was hoping to have labels and text boxes; not have it look like a spreadsheet.
I hope this all make sense.
Thank you.

Hi, I was wondering if you have had any luck with your continuos form? I have been searching for any help with this for the past few months and nothing out there seems work the same way the access continuous forms work. If you have any idea how to create a continuous form in vb.net could you send me a message back? thanks

I'm having the same problem with both VB.Net 2005 forms and the SQL Server 2005 Reporting services. With ASP.Net there is the possibility of a GridView with a formatted template column, but I have not found anything for VB.Net Winformd of the SQL Server Rpt Svc.. Why would MS take away such a useful interface design approach??

Hello,
Is there any way to make a console application to receive any argument?
Thank you
|

|

Uhhh... you mean like this?
Public Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
' Add code here.
End Sub
|
|
|
|
|
does it work that way?
How do I use it?
huehehe... it's too simple huh?
Thank you

This is beginner's stuff. I'm thinking you should get a good VB.NET book, because this is typically covered in the first or second chapter.
Here's a quick summary. You add a string array to your Main function as shown below. This array will be populated with command line arguments on startup. Meaning an array entry for every "space" separated argument.
' This code outputs every command line argument given to the app.
Public Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
Dim argument As String
For Each argument In args
Console.WriteLine(argument)
Next
End Sub

Folkes,
how are you all ,i would like to ask how can i list all the available Databases in a selected sqlserver!
thank you 
|
|
|
|

This question really belongs in the SQL / ADO / ADO.NET forum.
You can list all the databases on a SQL Server with the following query on a connection to the master database:
SELECT name FROM sysdatabases

We have several applications which generate e-mails automatically.
These are usually scheduled reports or event notifications.
Our company has decided to upgrade all e-mail to outlook 2003.
In my tests any software generated e-mail using Outlook 2003 needs a human intervention to confirm the email is a genuine e-mail and has not been generated by malicious software.
Is there any way to turn this confirmation feature off?
Regards

Instead of sending the email through outlook, send the email message directly to the smtp server.

Thanks KaptinKrunch,
At the moment I have no idea how to do that but it is something to work with.

Take a look at the SMTP RFC
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc821.html"
Clip taken from the RFC
A Typical SMTP Transaction Scenario
This SMTP example shows mail sent by Smith at host USC-ISIF, to
Jones, Green, and Brown at host BBN-UNIX. Here we assume that
host USC-ISIF contacts host BBN-UNIX directly. The mail is
accepted for Jones and Brown. Green does not have a mailbox at
host BBN-UNIX.
-------------------------------------------------------------
R: 220 BBN-UNIX.ARPA Simple Mail Transfer Service Ready
S: HELO USC-ISIF.ARPA
R: 250 BBN-UNIX.ARPA
S: MAIL FROM:<Smith@USC-ISIF.ARPA>
R: 250 OK
S: RCPT TO:<Jones@BBN-UNIX.ARPA>
R: 250 OK
S: RCPT TO:<Green@BBN-UNIX.ARPA>
R: 550 No such user here
S: RCPT TO:<Brown@BBN-UNIX.ARPA>
R: 250 OK
S: DATA
R: 354 Start mail input; end with <CRLF>.<CRLF>
S: Blah blah blah...
S: ...etc. etc. etc.
S: .
R: 250 OK
S: QUIT
R: 221 BBN-UNIX.ARPA Service closing transmission channel
Scenario 1

If you really do need to have these emails sent through Outlook 9as opposed to KaptinKrunch's suggestion) then there is a way of bypassing the security but it involves quite a lot of work - using Extended MAPI (requires C++ or Delphi). There are also one or two utilities - one is called Outlook Redemption, I think.

i am using cache to store the dataset like this
cache.insert("Key",dataset)
and i am using this cached data in button like this
dim ds as dataset
ds=cache("Key")
Here it is showing cache data as nothing
Can any body help me
narayana

I'm not ASP.NET expert, but one problem I see is that you're not casting the return value back to a dataset.
ds = CType(cache("Key"), DataSet)
Other than that, you'd probably have to ask this question in the ASP.NET Forum.

Is there a way to make teh ComboBox field appear empty?
I have a Windows form with a ComboBox in the first row and a DataGrid and some other controls in sync with the DataGrid. The first user action is to choose an item in the ComboBox. Then I use the SelectedValueChanged event to fill the form controls with data related to the item the user choose.
It works the way I wanted it, but there is one thing that bothers me and I so far I was unable to find a solution:
When the user first opens the form, the first item in the Combo is already choosen by default and ComboBox field is filled with text. I would like that field to appear empty until the user explicitely chooses an item.
In VB6 it was easy: on Form_Load, I set the ListIndex property to -1 for an ordinary ComboBox, or the BoundText property to '', for a Data Combo.
But, in VB. NET, setting the SelectedIndex property to -1 or any other non existing value is ignored and the ComboBox defaults to the first item (SelectedIndex = 0). (Bug or feature?)
It is confusing, because when the form is first open, the Combo field is filled, but all the other controls are empty. If the user wants to see data related to the first Combo item, she has to click the Combo and chose the item that appears already choosen which seems rather illogical.
Thank you in advance for any hints.
Best regards.

If ComboBox.DropDownStyle = DropDown, then setting SelectedIndex to -1 won't clear the selection. Instead, you clear it like this...
ComboBox.Text = String.Empty
|
|

|

No, it does not work: no matter what DropDownStyle I choose for the Combo, when I first open the form, I always get displayed the first line of the DataTable. I use this code:
With reasonCombo
.DisplayMember = "Description"
.ValueMember = "ReasonID"
.DataSource = ds2.Tables("Reasons").DefaultView
.Text = String.Empty
End With
I initialize tho Combo Box the Form_Load event
Thank you for trying to help me.
Best regards

Awww... now I see. It's because you're using ComboBox.DataSource.
You see, once you set ComboBox.DataSource, you can only select strings that exist in that DataSource. Now if an empty string existed in your DataSource, well then it would work.
Another solution would be to not set ComboBox.DataSource. Then add items to the ComboBox yourself via ComboBox.Items.Add(). That way you can set ComboBox.Text to anything that you want.
