Hi! I need to do a web service that connect to the active directory and bring the information that it's in the AD. I did a program that does it, but whe i tried to translate it to a web service, it didn't work out. If someone can help me, thanks a lot!

It doesn't work, probably, because the account that the service is running under doesn't have any permissions to AD at all. Create a user account with the appropriate rights, then go into the Services manager and change the account for your service to this user account and it should work.

Hi, look, this is the error I have when I try to add the reference:
Imports System.DirectoryServices
Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'System.DirectoryServices' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.

OK, the error that your now decribing doens't have anything to do with your original post. You said you had an app working, then converted it to a service, now it's not working. Apparently, you haven't converted it to a service yet...

You're getting this meesage because you haven't added a Reference to the System.DirectoryServices.dll file. Go to the Project menu, click "Add Reference...". A dialog window will pop up. Make sure the .NET tab is selected, then scroll down the list and find "System.DirectoryServices". Double-click that line and you've added the reference. That line of code should then compile successfully.

SQLDMO Replacement

I dont know if this is the best place to post this but here goes.

I have an exisiting VB6 application that uses SQLDMO to search for any SQL Server instance on a LAN. It works fine but SQLDMO is a nightmare to redistribute. I am currently re-writing the application in dotnet 2.0 (some C# for business objects and VB.NET front end).

My question is - is there any alternative to using SQLDMO? I would like to avoid any COM Interop if possible and dont wantthe hassel of distributing the dozen of so files to the multitude of directories the SQLDMO requires.

Thats it. Thanks.
I knew there had to be a better way.
The hardest thing about .net is learning the framework itself, The languages are pretty simple. The framework is just so big.

If you set the color on the properties window pane, make sure you didn't select a from the System color pallete. Those colors change based on the system settings for the computer.

The only other reason I could think of is perhaps your display settings are different across these platforms....Maybe you picked a 256 color that couldn't convert to a 16 bit color or something like that???

Hi All,

I made an activex dll in VB for my application which has some forms in it. The captions of controls in these forms are read at runtime from a properties file. I find that the captions are not shown correctly to the user when I load a properties file having Unicode Chars.

Can anyone tell me what could be wrong here?

Thanks and Regards,
Anil

I think this would be far to complex to just post here. There are Install packages that handle this or you would need to figure out how to create keys for products, encrytion, storing them , generating a license ( temp or perm), protecting the keys, Checking this information in your application code etc...

If you do not want to buy install software try this free open source product
