I guess i understood your requirement. Wink | ;)

It is good to emphasize the UI, look & feel as well as functionality.

But sadly you need to take help from third party custom controls(unless you build your own; i wont suggest !!)

I suggest you to use 'DevComponents'http://www.devcomponents.com/[^] for your app. The reason is :

1.You can have custom menus,forms,panels and many other controls.

2. It provides look, style, and a archieve of controls that follows Office2007 UI guideline(This is microsoft's recommended standard for UI for desktop apps).

3. I have used it for some of my app and got valuable comments. Although 2 years back.

Hope this helps.

you might need quotes around the [EDIT**] variables when you pass them to your custom action.

/custName="[EDITA1]" /custOrg="[EDITA2]" ...

Permissions and Permission Propogation

Tristan Rhodes13-Sep-09 23:16

Hi Guys,

Scenario:
I have a .Net app that creates a new User and then assigns full read / write permissions for that user to the application Program Files and application HKLM Registry section. The application then runs under the current user and impersonates the authorised user to modify the appropriate sections when nescessary.

The permissions assignment is assigned with the following code:

//Registry - Propogated Rule
RegistryAccessRule rule = new RegistryAccessRule(LOGON_USER_NAME, RegistryRights.FullControl, InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit | InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.InheritOnly, AccessControlType.Allow);
RegistrySecurity security = new RegistrySecurity();
security.AddAccessRule(rule);

//Create Test Sub Key in Registry with permissions for the MicaUser
RegistryKey root = Registry.LocalMachine.CreateSubKey(SUB_KEY_ROOT, RegistryKeyPermissionCheck.ReadWriteSubTree);
root.SetAccessControl(security);


//File System - Propogated Rule
FileSystemAccessRule rule = new FileSystemAccessRule(LOGON_USER_NAME, FileSystemRights.FullControl, InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit | InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.InheritOnly, AccessControlType.Allow);
DirectorySecurity security = new DirectorySecurity();
security.SetAccessRule(rule);

//Create Test Directory in Program Files with permissions for the MicaUser
Directory.CreateDirectory(dir);
Directory.SetAccessControl(dir, security);

Problem:
When i check the registry / directory, i have full permissions for any existing folders / subkeys below the dir / subkey Root, but not for the root itself.

i.e.

HKLM\Software\MyApp\TestKey

I Assign the permisssions to MyApp, then my User has full permissions on TestKey, but i am unable to create SubKeys in MyApp, nor delete the TestKey SubKey, nor set values in MyApp. This also applies to the ACL permissions on folders.

My question is - how do i setup both propogating privelages, and full read / write permissions on the root item?

Regards

I have managed to open up the Registry sub key root by adding two seperate permissions:

RegistrySecurity security = new RegistrySecurity();

     //Non Propogated Rule
     RegistryAccessRule rule = new RegistryAccessRule(LOGON_USER_NAME, RegistryRights.FullControl,InheritanceFlags.None, PropagationFlags.None, AccessControlType.Allow);
     security.AddAccessRule(rule);

     //Propogated Rule
     rule = new RegistryAccessRule(LOGON_USER_NAME, RegistryRights.FullControl, InheritanceFlags.ContainerInherit | InheritanceFlags.ObjectInherit, PropagationFlags.InheritOnly, AccessControlType.Allow);
     security.AddAccessRule(rule);

This works for the registry, but not for the directory permissions.

Any thoughts?

Regards

Hello, I am Vikash Gohil

I want to know that whether the CR redistributable MSI that Comes with VS2005, is a Licenced Software?

And Since it comes with VS2005, and gets installed when installing VS2005, does it mean that it is part and parcel of the VS2005, a Microsoft Product.

Also from where Can i download CRRedist_86.msi file from Microsoft Web Site.

Licensing and support for Crystal Reports for Visual Studio[^]

I don't know if the redistributables are downloadable separately, but
they are included with visual studio. In VS 2008, I found them here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Bootstrapper\Packages\CrystalReports10_5

I need to write and read information from the PCI port in a PC.

Is there a dll that allows me to do this?

Thanks Wink | ;)

There's no such thing as a PCI "port". There's the PCI expansion bus, which you normally never talk to. You talk to the devices on it directly. Same thing with USB.

I have looked at System.Transactions but was unsure if this would accomplish my goal. If this is the way to go, do you know of any good examples of how to implement this? I've been reading through that page for sometime but can't quite figure out how to get a working solution.

Thanks for the response

Hi all
I am trying to uninstall from the GAC an assembly.
I use gacutil /u MyAssembly.dll

What I am doing wrong?
Thanks

I don't know if this is the cause of your problem, but gacutil (on MSDN)[^], read the third paragraph on the '/r' option in the err... Options table.

Hope this helps! Smile | :)

All you did was unregister the .DLL. It won't remove the .DLL file from the folder. You have to remove that yourself.

Batching multiple INSERTs

How do you bulk multiple INSERT statements? Suppose I fire a bunch INSERTs in the form of SqlCommands, how do I make the server execute them in one batch, rather than one by one? Is there a simple solution, or do I have to drag the entire ADO.NET library into the picture?
