I have two drop down lists in my aspx page
One is UG and the other PG
If the user selects the PG drop down list before selecting the UG drop down list
an error or warning message should appear

Hi,
You can use AJAX for this. It is simple but powerful.

           return false;
     }
     else
           return true;

}

Put this code on the OnChange event of PG Dropdown.

You can do this by adding the value to one XML file and reading the XML file to dataset and set reportsource as this dataset.

To do this I prefer to store the heading too in XML file. When creating XML file , check the value is null. If so make heading also null. Then in reports also heading won't come

Debugging: cannot drill down into object collections in QuickWatch window

My colleague and I have recently upgraded our projects from .NET Framework 1.0 and VS2002 to .NET Framework 2.0 and VS2005. We also applied the latest VS2005 service pack.

Our problem: normally when debugging we use the QuickWatch window to drill down into and view collections of objects belonging to the parent object we are "watching". THIS NO LONGER WORKS...instead, we get a message in the value line against the object collection saying:

"In order to evaluate an indexed property, the property must be qualified and the arguments must be explicitly supplied by the user."

This is incredibly frustrating, particularly when we have large nested collections of objects.

We are pretty sure this feature was working fine after we upgraded, but we are not so sure that it was working after we applied the VS2005 service pack.

Can anyone suggest any ideas that might help to solve this issue, as it is a massive hinderance to our productivity and our office swear box has been raking it in!!!

Cheers

Are you debugging a windows forms project, or a web project? Because if you are in a web project, just setting the build to debug mode isn't enough for VS2005. You would need to manually edit the web config to say debug=true instead of debug=false to get the debugger to work.

Otherwise, could you be a little more specific as to what you are quickwatching? Maybe give us the actual code you quickwatch?

Hope this helps.

You'll want to enumerate through the IIS variables using WMI. Try searching for "enumerating IIS directories with WMI"

hi,

Everyone know this error? the database has been placed in state by user "Admin"!

We are using a shared database in access databases. When more than one user has connect to my databases by my application (my program)the database open, the following error message appears. "The
database has been placed in a state by user 'Admin' on machine XXXXX that
prevents it from being opened or locked."

How to solve this error? please help!

My following code as below:

Try
DB = New OleDbConnection("Provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0; data source=C:\prdsystem\prdnsf.mdb")
DB.Open()
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message, MsgBoxStyle.Information, "")
End
End Try
Da = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql, DB)
Ds = New DataSet
Da.Fill(Ds, "emp")

I am using
the following code from VB.NET( I put only necessary lines to be short)
AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
PDDoc = CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
InsertPDDoc = CreateObject "AcroExch.PDDoc")
PDDoc.Create()
InsertPDDoc.Open(OutPdfPath)
.....
If PDDoc.InsertPages(-1, InsertPDDoc, 0, iNumberOfPagesToInsert, 1) = False Then
MsgBox("Error Inserting Pages ")
Exit For
End If
And this InsertPages(...) work fine for
some documents(that was opened before upon
name InsertPDDoc). But some pdf files the client sent to us are not working.It is
totally depends on pdf file that was opened.

Could you please answer why it is different on different files? The same code could do InsertPages() for one pdf file and could not do for another.
What 'wrong' with that file where it could not do it. I would appreciate any
clue on this.
Thank you.

I use this method: change the 2 constants to whatever you want

Imports System.Text
Imports System.Security.Cryptography

Public Class Encryption
#Region "Public Routines"
const ENCRYPT_KEY AS STRING = "TEST"
const ENCRYPT_VECTOR AS STRING = "CODEPRJT"

Public Shared Function ToBase64(ByVal sDataToEncrypt As String) As String
Dim stream As System.IO.MemoryStream = New System.IO.MemoryStream
Dim key As Byte() = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(ENCRYPT_KEY.PadRight(24, Chr(0)))
Dim Vector As Byte() = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(ENCRYPT_VECTOR.PadRight(8, Chr(0)))

Dim des As TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider = New TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider
Dim cryptoStream As CryptoStream = New CryptoStream(stream, des.CreateEncryptor(key, Vector), CryptoStreamMode.Write)

Dim Input() As Byte = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(sDataToEncrypt)

cryptoStream.Write(Input, 0, Input.Length)
cryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock()

Return Convert.ToBase64String(stream.ToArray())
End Function

Public Shared Function ToBase32(ByVal sDataToDecrypt As String) As String
Dim stream As System.IO.MemoryStream = New System.IO.MemoryStream
Dim key As Byte() = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(ENCRYPT_KEY.PadRight(24, Chr(0)))
Dim Vector As Byte() = Encoding.Default.GetBytes(ENCRYPT_VECTOR.PadRight(8, Chr(0)))

Dim des As TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider = New TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider
Dim cryptoStream As CryptoStream = New CryptoStream(stream, des.CreateDecryptor(key, Vector), CryptoStreamMode.Write)

Dim Input() As Byte = Convert.FromBase64String(sDataToDecrypt)

cryptoStream.Write(Input, 0, Input.Length)
cryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock()

Return Encoding.Default.GetString(stream.ToArray())
End Function
#End Region
End Class

Sorry for bothering you but when I used your class, I started getting an error message

Specified key is a known weak key for 'TripleDES' and cannot be used."}

.

I changed these two constants

const ENCRYPT_KEY AS STRING = "NEMESIS"
    const ENCRYPT_VECTOR AS STRING = "DOMAIN"

What is causing the problem?

Thank You. D'Oh! | :doh:

i think it's saying that "domain" is word that shouldn't be used because it's like reserved word. try "dom.ain"

you have upto 24 characters for the key and 8 characters for the vector. my key has period, underscores, dashes, etc in it.

i think it follows the rules of "complex password" where just letters are not enough

ex of one of my apps:

Const EncryptKey As String = "THE_XXXX_APPLICATION"
Const EncryptVector As String = "X.X.X.X."

takes it fine...
