Hi All,
I am using MailTo tag in my application.

I have wriitten a following line of code

hlink.NavigateUrl = "mailTo: ?body=" +
"http://servername/sites/Testsites/Test%20Requests/test.xls";
where hlink is a hyperlink column of the GridView.

When I run the code , I get the following result in the Body of the Email

http://servername/sites/Testsites/Test?20Requests/test.xls

Please help.

I don't want to add space in URL
I want "%" string in my URL .

I want my URL to be
"http://servername/sites/Testsites/Test%20Requests/test.xls"

I don't want to add space

but in the MailTo tag "%" sign use for space.

I want to treat "%" as a part of the string.

Does anyone have the simple C# code for showing a butterfly flying across the screen. The one I remember from years ago used only two jpg pictures.

Thanks,

I doubt anyone would have pre-made code of something you saw ages ago. However I can give a few suggestions:

.NET 1.+
You can use the ImageAnimator class to animate a gif image which would contain the images of the butterfly. You would then have to repaint and move the butterfly along a predetermined path that meets your criteria

.NET 3.0
Use Expression Blend to create a timeline using the butterfly images that you have already created.

Hey, just wondering what the best method would be for storing simple objects in an mysql table.

<br />
public class Address<br />
{<br />
	public int Number { get; set; }<br />
	public int Unit { get; set; }<br />
	public string Street { get; set; }<br />
	public string City { get; set; }<br />
	public string Province { get; set; }<br />
	public string Country { get; set; }<br />
	public string PostalCode { get; set; }<br />
}<br />

You could serialize the object and store the xml.

Ok, well i managed to serialize the object using a binaryformatter and then base64'd the result.

<br />
		public string Serialize()<br />
		{<br />
			MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();<br />
			BinaryFormatter Serializer = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
<br />
			Serializer.Serialize(MemStream, this);<br />
<br />
			return Encoding.ASCII.GetString(MemStream.ToArray()).ToBase64();<br />
		}<br />

but im having some issues when deserializing:
"End of stream encountered before parsing was completed."

<br />
		public static Address Deserialize(string SerializedData)<br />
		{<br />
			Address Address;<br />
			MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();<br />
			BinaryFormatter Serializer = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
<br />
			string Decoded = SerializedData.FromBase64();<br />
			byte[] Buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(Decoded);<br />
			MemStream.Write(Buffer, 0, Buffer.Length);<br />
<br />
			Address = (Address)Serializer.Deserialize(MemStream); <-- fails right here...<br />
<br />
			return Address;<br />
		}<br />

Basically, what you're missing is seeking the
stream pointer to the beginning after writing
to the memstream but before calling Deserialize().

Try

public string Serialize()
{
    MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();
    BinaryFormatter Serializer = new BinaryFormatter();
    Serializer.Serialize(MemStream, this);
    return Convert.ToBase64String(MemStream.ToArray());
}



public static Address Deserialize(string SerializedData)
{
    byte[] Buffer = Convert.FromBase64String(SerializedData);
    MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream(Buffer);
    BinaryFormatter Serializer = new BinaryFormatter();
    return (Address)Serializer.Deserialize(MemStream);
}

*edit* condensed Deserialize() a bit Smile | :)

own Printer service on c#.net

Hi,

Iam developing an application/service for printers.The scenario is as follows

1. When a user selects a document and then he says the print command(no through my application...he selects normal print in file menu)then i have to catch some details like printername,no.of pages,document name..and so on...This action should be done before it get out from spooler.

2. As all of you that after printing data from spooler will be deleted..but in general for example for HP printer 3 files like lpr1234.tmp,shockwaveobject file ,.shd are generated. In this I have take take required files and keep them in my own spooler.

On my extensive search I came to know that by using WMI and WindowsAPI functions I can get to this goal...

But Iam unable to get into the right way....
If I have to use APIs then kindly tell what are the method I have to implement(if possible give me documentation link)

If through WMI....kindly guide me for the same

ALL these should be act as a service.....

thanks in Advance

Application -> GDI -> Winspool.drv -> Spoolsv.exe

Your intension is to catch all the printer jobs that are generated from any window on your PC . That should be easy if you have only one window
we can use simple hook , but now we need to put a hook before the spooler.exe . Hey but what Winspool.drv does an RPC to the Spooler.exe.

1. Put a hook on the "winspool.Drv" EntryPoint="StartPagePrinter"
that is just as we do it with normal DLL
2. I am not sure but you can check this article

Hi,

Thanks for your help and very valuable suggestion

Now I developed a service that can pause my documents came for printing.This should also be done when a new document came for printing.
But how to achieve this Iam unable to do it.

for example...
I have given a document1,document2 for printing....then if i manually start my service it is making them into pause state..this is fine

But again a new one say document3 came for printing...Iam unable to make it to Pause state..Iam lacking here..

So I want to make my servcie work in such a way that it should identify a new document arrival for printing ..and automatically make it to pause state

If I have to make a scheduler what I have to write in that?

Kindly help me for that...
