That doesn't matter. You don't have to name the columns (set ColNameHeader to true) and if you do, it's the name you decide, not the name in the file.

The file also comes in with column names with "." and it converts them to "#".

Din't quite understand this.

The column names are something like column.name which csv is coverting to column#name. Not a big deal.

I can set the column names as they move around also. It's weird and a pain but I'll have to find a different solution.

Okay, another option could be LINQ to TEXT and LINQ to CSV[^]

You may want to take a look at this CSV parser[^] and then use Bulkcopy to load the data into a table. I always use a staging table and a stored proc to do my ETL.

Hi All,

I'm just trying to find some info on how to tell xUnit to output the results from a set of tests I've written for some C# code. Info seems really thin on the ground for this. Can anyone post some info/links on how to set this up?

Thanks,

C# serial Port

Hi,

I have an MDI application, with five different child forms. (developing in Visual Studio 2008 C# windows Form Application)

I added Serial port to MDI Form.

How can I use that serial port instance (created on MDI Form) on a child Form?

Thanks
Karmu

I think you should create methods for using serial port on MDI form and call them from the child form. You can find the MDI form from child form using child's MdiParent property.

making alarm

hi,
im trying to make an alarm that will just alert in a specified time lenght. Mean it will have 2 parts, First start Time and second End Time. Hope you got my question. I wrote code but it just work till end time is less than 00:00.

For example
If StartTime is 23:00:00 and EndTime is 23:59:00, it will work

but if StartTime is 23:00:00 and EndTime is 01:00:00, it wont

here is the code

        DateTime StartTime = new DateTime(1, 1, 1, 23, 52, 40);
        DateTime EndTime = new DateTime(1, 1, 1, 1, 01, 10);

//in TimerTick event

if (DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay.CompareTo(StartTime.TimeOfDay) > 0 && DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay.CompareTo(EndTime.TimeOfDay) < 0)
            {
//Code
MessageBox.Show("Came");
}

i know DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay.CompareTo(StartTime.TimeOfDay) returns 1 if the time is less than 00:00:00 and greater than the parameter TimeSpan else -1

but i'm not getting any idea since mind is very tired because of lots of proccess Frown | :(

i thought to place a bool variable when that time past but problem is that what if user open the pc when time is 1:00:00 then it wont work

any idea guys ?

thanks

Hi,
You are just being far too specific in your comparison. Just compare the DateTime values, i.e. the date and the time of day.

Something like this:

//Calculate time and date at the end of the desired period, 1 hour in this example
DateTime EndTime = DateTime.Now.AddHours(1);

//in TimerTick event
if (EndTime.CompareTo(DateTime.Now) < 0){
  //Code
  MessageBox.Show("Came");
}

[EDIT: My initial code fragment was rubbish. It make sense now! ]
Alan.

dude, you misunderstood my question. I want comparision in time not with date and time. I do not need date, just time.

for example :
if user open the computer between 23:00 - 01:00 then shows a message to him/her. but problem is 00:00 as i told in first post

One way is to split the logic. Something like:

- if the end time > start time, simple check if current time is between start and end
- if the end time < start time it means that you're crossing midnight, then:

Hi every one...can u help me in disabling the border of the group box

thnx in advance,

Xmen Real 6-Dec-08 4:53

well, i dont think its good idea to remove its border. You can try panel or just put controls above group box(not in groupbox) and just set its Visible prop. to False.

If you set visible to false, everything it contains will also be invisible.
