If I can help, I will. However you first need to explain what you need help with.

Ok, but can you stop telling me what you want to do and explain why you can't do it? In other words, what is the problem that you need help with? Which is what I have asked you like 3 times now.

Oh, you don't want to program yourself, you just want someone to create code for you?
Do you also need someone to polish your shoes?

Smarter? Really? That's your excuse? WOW

In four attempts you still have not provided even the smallest amount of information about the programming problem you are having. How long did you think it would be until you irritated someone?

Thanks a lot
Sorry for all the trouble...............

Hi,
Your problem is that on the subcategory you need one more field
you need
Categories
ID
Category
SubCategories
ID
Category
SubCategory
You should use the ER Model always that it is possible and that requires a unique identifier per table... for me this is the easiest way to do it!!!
Your queries should be some like
For the Categories
SELECT * FROM Categories
For the subcategories
SELECT * FROM SubCategories WHERE Category = 'YOUR CATEGORY ID'
This way you retrive all the sub categories for that specific Category...
with no offense but Sometimes i dont understand what kind of work is this people doing to so this basic questions! i believe that you should buy a book and understant the whole concept about databases before trying to do this kind of job

hi,
How to automatically click Ok button in MessageBox?
After the message show.
Without click OK button by user. Will OK button fire automatically?
Ex:
MessageBox.Show( "Welcome", MessageBoxButtons.OK );
Thanks,
Raja

Hi,
MessageBox does not have a time-out. You can solve this in many ways:
1.
launch a timer, when it expires, find the window handle, then either send a close message, or locate the OK button and send a click message.
2.
much easier: create your own messagebox class, and provide a built-in time-out with a timer that simply closes this form.

I am assuming you are slightly dislectic (or English is not your first langauge) and you actually mean a ListView.
When loading the LV put the datarow/array item into the tag property, set the subitem column width to 0 to hide it and when you select the item you have the supporting data object available in the tag property. Caveat - this gets VERY slow when loading a large amount of data.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

hi all,
can anybody knows help me.while installation of any msi windows installer creates copy of that msi with newly generated msi file name in temporary location("%WINDOWS%\Installer\").so i want to know how windows installer will generate that new msi file name.
|
|
|
|
|
The generation of that filename is random and cannot be predicted. Why would you want to know?
|

Thank u for responding my question. i feel happy to share my doubt with u.actually i am working on msi. i am trying to deploy an application without the need of installing the application by windows installer in the target pc. so mostly i am trying to simulate windows installer services and functions for security purpose.Actually client dont have required permissions to install an application, that's why windows installer creates copy of msi package in the temporary location ( RootDrive:\Windows\Installer\") from where installer performs installation with full accessible services required for installation of application and also it uses that copied msi for installation, Repair and uninstallation. so i need to do research on copied msi with generated msi file name.

If the client doesn't have permissions to install the application, it's for a reason. You're also not going to get around this limitation by "simulating" your own installer. If you have to register COM-based components, the client is STILL not going to be able to install your app because the Registry keys you need to change will STILL be off-limits to the user installing the app. The same is true for files that you have to put in System32, and maybe even Program Files, depending on the users situation.

Wrong. It's not because of the clients permissions. The installer is cached (no matter who installs the app) so that Windows Installer caches the .MSI in a well-known location so that if a repair is needed the .MSI is available to do the repair without needing the original installation media.
You are NOT going to be able to circument security by "faking" a repair of an app by tricking Installer into thinking the app was already installed.
Besides, the Installer service that actually does the install, runs as LocalSystem, not the user...
