I'm not sure if this is possible, but what i want to create is web application that sends notifications to the user via whatever communication medium upon a certain condition.
For example, lets say we have an online form. You don't complete the form, but you can save your current input and come back to finish it later. Now lets say you forget to complete the form. The application will send you an alert or notification after a week or so to remind you to complete the form.
Assuming that I'm using asp.net 3.5 and sql server 2005, how can i have the application on the server send alerts to the user after a time period has passed ?

store th edata in a db and have a seperate process that watches the db and send the notifications, or check the storage medium for old incomplete information every time its run and notifies the people..however this could be slow for the new person trying to use it and having to wait while the server notifies all of the people with incomplete signups.
if i gave up on completeing a form it was probably for a good reason and i wont care about finishing it.

I'm thinking something like a Windows service application that polls your sql server 2005 database for records requiring notifications, and uses System.Net.Mail objects to send emails would work for you.
|

the service polling sounds like a good move. it did cross my mind before
I was just wondering if there was a way to do it using just sql server and asp.net
Maybe i can look into notification services

I have a vb.net application that is installed on a machine acting as a webserver. I need to open this application from an asp.net website. I have been told that I should use an ActiveX control. I have read some articles but i'm still not sure how to use active x controls. I am new to programming so I don't understand most of the terms used. Can someone please explain it to me. Thank you in advance

ActiveX controls are an old school way running code a client.
What does this application do and where do you want it to run?
I didn't get any requirements for the signature

I want a user to click on a button and the application should run. The application is a tool that the user will use while adding input to the webpage.

Well, usually it is difficult to call a windows application from a browser. The reason for this is because of security. Generally you don't want web applications to run code on the client machine.
Is this application for the internet or on a local network?
If you are running the application in an intranet environment you can deploy the windows application using Click Once Deployment[^] and then simply put a link to the web page of the application on your web page.
Passing arguments to the application is another issue all together...

I have a website called abc. I created a virtual directory pointing to this folder. This folder also contains a admin folder. I want users to access as follows: abc.com should take them to default.aspx in the main folder. abc.com\admin should take them to the default.aspx folder in admin folder. How can i achieve this?

|
|
create a virtual directory admin pointing to your admin folder in the main directory.
Set the default(say default.aspx) page for newly created folder.
|
|
|
|
|
first, create virtual directory for abc by right-clicking on the default website in your iis. here in documents tab move default.aspx to top.
Then right-click on the virtual directory abc which you have just created and select new--> virtual directory-->alias name admin-->give tha path and so on.
right click admin VD to select properties in the documents tab move default.aspx to top
this may help u

i think u have created second virtual directory under admin folder.The second VD you should create under VD abc

Here is the problem, okay besides my customer's broken architecture:
Backend DB uses an entity data class. WebSvcA passes entity. WebSvcB also passes entity.
So what we have is: Entity.Class1, WebSvcA.Class1, and WebSvcB.Class1.
Their solution? A Util.dll with convert functions that go every which way. 
I feel ill.
Are there any recommendations? Such as Entity.Class1 impleneting some serialization interface such that the proxy classes are unnecessary? I'm looking in to an automated (non-reflective) way to serialize between the 3 classes as they are all the same. Still, I can't help thinking there is a more clever way (other than changing the architecture which is NOT an option so don't ask).
