By "file" are you saying that it displays file in the Type column of the Explorer window? Try adding the extension (.MSI) - it may be missing just that...

How can we alter the execution sequence of the previous application while we upgrade or roll out.
How Microsoft installer is getting the uninstall information of the existing version when we upgrade

That information is built into the MSI. When you create the installer, you can customize the install sequence, which is also used when uninstalling. There are conditions you can set on the actions in the install sequence that define when it should run (allways, install only, uninstall only).
Look at the documentation for the application you are using to build your installer or on MSDN.

it's a long story so bear with me.
i've been working as a designer and programmer for this company for the past 2 years, and did quite a few of the more complex modules.
now, the company developed the software i'm working on for another company, who brought their own people to help us code the product in a reasonable amount of time (the project was supposed to end 6 months ago, and is still in the process of being built).
i've transfered most of the modules i designed and quite of few of those i coded to other people in that time, but as i'm usually a helpful person i didn't hasitate to lend a hand when they needed some things explained or designed (i'm also considered one of the strongest developers and about the only person to have an idea about software detailed design in the department).
so, most of the modules aren't my responsibility for a few months, and most people are away on holiday while a sub version is going out to the client for testing, and lo and behold, a few of the modules that were originally mine aren't working as expected (i gave them out in working order, it seems the people who took over them did some "quirks" to the system), and before i know it, i'm being demoted (in application, this can't hurt my salary or terms) to programmer, and basiclly being handed the entire bag of poo.
(this does not prevent everyone coming to me for help, since unlike the team leaders and senior architects i'm a nice person who is always willing to answer questions and help with problematic code)
now, back to my personality, i'm a rather shy person, and i don't do well in personal interviews so much (i got this job by the simple fact they did the professional test first, and the fact i passed it with flying colors was enough to offset the horrible personal interview)
the question all this is leading to, is should i just give them the finger and try to find a new job, or swallow my pride and stay on with the project.

It never hurts to consider your options. If you are not happy, it would be a good idea to get your resume in order and start looking out for new jobs. Whatever you do, don't "give them the finger" on your way out the door. Keep it professional and remember that it's up to you to look out for your own best interests.
You should be a little worried about the "demotion" that you mentioned. A lower title could make it harder to move to another job and maintain/bump your salary.

Hi All,
I am having some issues at work. We mostly only affer hosting for the sites that we do the development on ourselves. But now we have some inexperianced developers that work for some of our clients uploading crapy code to our production environment, and yesterday it actualy brought down our server, and was quite a big deal.
I was wondering if anyone else here has had any similar issues.
I mean there are several hosting companies our there allowing anyone and everyone to upload code to their server, and there has got to be some kind of protection from these kind of issues. I have not been with the company long, but can see that this could be a seroous problem. Especialy when most of our revinue is generated by development.
I am doing some research myself, but wanted to see if anyone here had any ideas.
Thanks,
Adam

I don't do any ASP.NET development, but you could contain their code by implementing virtual servers using something like VMWare's Virtual Server/PC. You'd have to install Windows Server and IIS on each of the virtual machines, then each client gets their own virtual box to play on. If they crash the server, they only crash THEIR server, not everyone elses.
I'm sure there are other alternatives, but this is what popped to mind for me...

After a little research I have found that this solution would be just to time consumming and require too many resources to work. Vertual machines have to have memory alicated specificly to them. That just wouldn't make since.

Hi!
Further to Dave's suggestion of virtual servers, i also suggest you monitor the server's CPU usage at all times, that way you will always know the probability of it crashing. When usage goes up [red alert], have a look at the processes running, kill the unnecessary ones. To iimplement this try the network graphing softwares e.g. Paessler.

One place that I hosted my sites had things reviewed by the hosting comapny before it was allowed to be put up. I am talking about components, dlls, etc... If a script from a customer crashed the server, you would be warned and things monitored and limited from a cpu point of view.

I presume you mean "Microsoft Certified Professional Developer" (MCPD). You need to pass the exams that lead to this certification. The answer is on the MCP section on the Microsoft website.

The MCTS is a stepping stone to the MCPD. I would start with the TS and then continue from there.

Well blow me down - I hadn't realised that I couldn't read the headers on the forums before. I thought that this one was the Work and Training forum and not the Windows Forms forum. Oh wait - it isn't me. It's you.

If the client wants "experience" with latest version of software tool is he really getting a better deal if the "new version is easier to use" than the older one?
Would a person experienced with the "bad, older" version be a better worker with the new, easy to use one?
