Thank for your reply, but could you give me any example how can I do this?
I don't quite understand how can I simulate 500 internal server error with HttpHandler?
On the other hand, I do use HttpHandler for captcha.
Sorry for late reply. I had some issues with logging on Code Project.

How to create standalone web service (if that is the right term) that is resident in memory and running all the time? I mean I dont need url for it , start page adn of course no interaction.. I mean I dont want to invoke any function or call WS in another app, just want to have it running all the time.
WS will check some web site for some word and inform me by email when it appears.
Regards,
Jalle

What you're asking for is called a Windows Service

OK great thank you.
I made windows service and add following code
<br />
Imports System.Net.Mail<br />
Public Class Service1<br />
<br />
Protected Overrides Sub OnStart(ByVal args() As String)<br />
Debug.Print("sending")<br />
SendEmail("test", "jaskotr@yahoo.com") <br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
Protected Overrides Sub OnStop()<br />
' Add code here to perform any tear-down necessary to stop your service.<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
End Class
And press F6 but nothing happens , email not sent and Immediate window is emppty. Why, please ?
But what confuses me also is how can I have windows service published on some asp.net server ?

What is in your SendMail() method?

Just install the service on the ASP.NET machine when it is done.

Not a good idea. Besides the OP seems a bit confused as to what s/he wants.

I may be missing something here but he said it didn't send the message. We need to see the code that trys to send it to help figure out what is wrong right?

I could agree with this though. But I still think that for the question asked, I answered it correctly. That is if the OP understood what they wanted.
P.S. - I took no offense to that, but I would like to get some understanding too...

The SendMail method is irrelevant because the OP was trying to run the service incorrectly so the method would never be run anyway. A Windows Service can't started simply be pushing F6.
"Cannot start a service from the command line or a debugger. A Windows Service must first be installed (using installutil.exe) and then started with the ServerExplorer, Windows Services Administrator tool or the NET START command."

You can't start a Windows Service like that. Start here http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/d56de412(VS.80).aspx[^]

Do a little more research and figure out what it is you want, a web service or a windows service.

Hello guys (and girls),
Thank you for your help, I appreciate that
I have finished all the coding.
Program checks a web site and if it finds one specific word then it emails result and sends sms to mobile number. (sorry cant copy/past code because company rules)
Now only question is : Will it be a web service or windows service ?
If I am going to place it locally on my computer then I will need to do some additional checks , like is there any Internet connection and so. I dont like that.
Is it possible to have this code running on some remote server? (I have godaddy account but don't know where to look). Isnt that what web service do ?
THANK YOU ALL !

Webservices are more of a pull technology. Something must initiate the action. A Windows Service on the other hand can be designed to self trigger, or run at a set interval.

Without an internet connection how are you planning on checking these websites for keywords?

Hello Mark
Yes I know web services are more like pull technology. I work in a company that works together with airlines. Our present project is SMS client which tracks flights and sends information to passenger mobile phone. Thats where we needed web services.
But this other problem I have is little bit different.
To have some small program running all the time which can check some url periodicaly ...
Mark Nischalke wrote: Without an internet connection how are you planning on checking these websites for keywords?
So I need two things
- PC running all the time
- Internet connection
That looks like server, right. Now I come to conclusion:
You can't install it at some real server like 'windows service' (unless you are IT administrator in your local company)
You can't install it as 'web service' because it will need something to invoke it, and you don't wanna to do that.
Please someone , let me know that is practice here, so I don't go around to much 
I will ask godaddy support if they know anything about this...
Cheers!

You have been given the answer, several times. This project is clearly beyond your abilities if you can't see that. Leave it someone else, or give up.

No I didnt get clear answer "several times" because probably no one here understands this matter, or maybe I was not clear enough.

Listing code doesn't prove any ability beyond cut & paste, especially since its only VB.

I highly, highly doubt the former is true and it is quite arrogant of you consider it as an excuse. The statement proves, as I stated before, the concept is beyond you to understand and see that you have the answers.

Hy!
I filled a GridView with some data from a table(obtained from a DataBase).
Now i have to delete some row, but i have to do this without deleting that information from the DataBase. It would be easy to use DataBase. I would obtain that table and fill that GridView again on the pageLoad, but i'm not aloud.
I really didn't find how to do this.
Please someone help! If this is possible.

How are you binding the data to the GridView? Are you using a DataTableAdapter or some other object? A DataTable or DataSet are in-memory representations of the data, so unless you are calling a method to delete the row directly in the database, you should only be working with a temporary copy of the data.

I'm doing like this:
gridView.DataSource = table;
gridView.DataBind();
"table" is the table that i get from an SQL query. This piece of code, is integrated in a fillGridView function that i have, but i suppose this is what you are interested in.
|
|
|
|
|
And what is table? I'll assume it is a DataTable, in which case it is, once again, an in-memory representation of the data, not connected to the database from which you obtained it.

I'm filling this gridView on the form's load. Now, every time i delete a row i redirect to the same page, i get the table from the database and fill the grid. Because i don't modify the database the table will always be the same. Supposing i fill it with a DataSet, which i modify every time i press delete, how do you suggest kipping that DataSet? It works if i use Session variables? I can't try it cause i don't have the code right now?

|
|
|

First don't delete rows one at a time, use a checkbox column to allow the users to select which rows to delete, then do it all at once. Or, yes cache the data, then update the database when completed. This isn't an unknown problem, there are a wide variety of articles on the subject.

Probably the way i'm doing the fill now is putting me in a serious problem cause i'm not aloud to modify the database. First, it was made following this idea.
How should i proceed now?
Filling a dataset from a table then filling the GridView with a dataset?
Then I activate that delete button and so on?
I'll show you exactly the fillGridView function i have over 2 days.
