Include the path to the MakeCert application. If it can't find the command, you'll get the error that you described. The easiest way is to enhance/copy the batchfile that's used for the "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" - look under the Start menu, under the "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005" folder; it has a Tools-folder, and it should have a link to said batchfile. That should also contain the commands to set the correct search-paths, so that it includes the commands for Visual Studio in your command prompt.

oh I see, I thought he was using CD to goto the correct directory for makecert

mine is C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\makecert.exe (if that helps anyone)

Remembering to change the directory would be the easiest way to solve it Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

do you need to use START (or something like that) before the program name

cd c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC
START makecert -ss CBBC

EDIT:

it seems the problem is more likely the location of the makecert file (which is not in the CD directory as I assumed was being done)

correct version may look something like...

cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin"
makecert -ss CBBC

cd c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC
START /D"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\" makecert.exe -ss CBBC

makecert -ss CBBC

it worked. Thank you...

I found there is a default certificate(Joe's-Software-Emporium) in CBBC Folder. How can I delete this default one. Thank you in advance

Help for code

I am using below code from below link:

using System.Globalization;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
string strValue= "0932;093E;0926;0947;0928;";
 Regex rgexp = new Regex(@"([0-9A-Fa-f]{4});");
 string strResult= rgexp .Replace(strValue, match => ((char)Int32.Parse(match.Groups[1].Value, NumberStyles.HexNumber)).ToString());
 Response.Write(strResult);

Source:http://www.dotnetspider.com/resources/39073-How-convert-hindi-using-unicode.aspx

But there is red line with match = "> (Here it is showing red line)"

I am going to convert a Unicode String to Hindi (Indian Language). I am using VS 2005 Prof Edition.

Thanks.

I think your syntax may be incorrect (looks like LINQ), see here[^] for a sample of the Replace() method.

I must get a clever new signature for 2011.

Thanks for your reply. Here it is the code:

<br />
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
            string strValue= "0932;093E;0926;0947;0928;";<br />
            Regex rgexp = new Regex(@"([0-9A-Fa-f]{4});");<br />
            string strResult= rgexp.Replace(strValue, match =>  ((char)Int32.Parse(match.Groups[1].Value, NumberStyles.HexNumber)).ToString());<br />
            textBox1.Text=strResult;<br />
        }<br />

And the error :
Invalid expression term '>'

Even i am not able to resolve the issue from link given by first user please.

Thank you.

If I copy that code, then it works fine for me.

If you are getting an error around the => part (known as lambda expression[^]) then perhaps you are not using the correct version of .Net required to do this which is .Net 3.5 or above (I think)

EDIT

Change target framework[^] (VS 2008 but I am sure you will work it out for 2005)

...if version 3.5 or higher is not available then you will most likely need to install it first

CORRECTION

...actually you will need to get a copy of VS 2008 or VS 2010 if you want to use .Net 3.5 or higher

VS2005 only supports the 2.0 framework. He'd have to compile by hand if he's going to use 3.0, or download VS2k8 Express Smile | :)

Could you explain that? AFAIK, Unicode supports all characters. You're going to save it as ANSI with a Hindi-codepage?

What are you trying to achieve?

Would be .NET 2.0, and that doesn't support Lambda-statements. You'll have to convert it to a real method, or upgrade to a newer version of .NET.

If it is due to older framework version; then i will test the code on another machine and will post the output/error (if any).

Thank you very much for your replies.

As Eddy has said, you need to use a newer version of VS (i.e. 2008 or 2010) in order for the compiler to accept the lambda expressions. It is not just the installed version that is required

>What are you trying to achieve?

Actually i have got couple of files named like file1.txt, file2.txt etc... and these files are having unicode data too. I have to store these files data into databases like Oracle, SQL Server. So, i was in search to first convert a unicode string to convert it into editable text; i.e. something like :
Unicode String is "This is a unicode string" and i wish :
New String is : "Something text after conversion"; and then if i select hindi (an Indian Language) font for new string; it will show me the original string as it was in Unicode.

Now, here i do'nt know how do i know the complete steps to convert these files into that format; so that i can store those data into databases.

Thank you.

Every string in .NET is in Unicode, it's the default nowadays. Meaning that you only need to read the text and pass it on to your database. Do make sure that your database also stores them in that format.

Girish481 wrote:

That doesn't make sense. Unicode contains Hindi-characters - what would you want to convert them into?

Girish481 wrote:

Both show the original string in the same encoding, only with different fonts. Some fonts are designed for use with ANSI and a specfic codepage, others were created for unicode[^]. Your string in Hindi should look allright when displayed as unicode in one of those fonts.
