I would be interested to know how you can use Google to "search by image"? I see no such option offered.

One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

There is, and it's been there for actually quite a while (granted, not in plain sight though).

Click to search for images in Google, then drag and drop the image from your computer into the search box, and voila!

I am tempted to downvote you for not Googling it[^] Laugh | :laugh:

But I did Google it, which is why I asked OP for clarification, because Google did not show how to do it.

Hm, interesting. I googled "google search by image" and the link I gave you was the first that popped up. Does this mean my google-fu is better than your google-fu? Laugh | :laugh:

OK I lied. I just went to Google and tried using the help pages on searching. Blush | :O

I'm not surprised, in the few cases I've used it did the job fairly well (nothing complicated though, something along the lines of what you did).

And a bit off-topic: I googled myself last night excluding personal results, and the first 100 or so pages were all links to CP posts of mine Laugh | :laugh:

in google image search "www.image.google.com" it is possible to click on the camera icon beside the search button. then one can choose entering the image url or uploading an image from his own pc.

There's nothing to upload to; their search-engine isn't a regular webapp where people upload images.

Put the image on a public reachable URL, host them using a webserver. Have Google index the entire site, and it will also catalog the images it finds there.

yes you are right. but they made the camera icon as an href to a javascript piece of code. so I just need to fire this JVScript code.

Well, that is a webpage, to which you do a request and get a response. Regular stuff

There is nothing stopping you to programmatically do a request (good luck figuring out all parameters though), getting the response, and displaying it back.

C# Update SQL Database

Hello, I am converting a program from using comma delimited files to a compact database in 2010 Visual C#. I am a complete newbie in the Database arena but with the help of some of the examples on here and other sites I have gotten a basic start. The examples I found on some sites pointed me into setting up a dataset binding and updating the tables. This works with loading the files into my form but I am having trouble getting it back and staying saved. Below is my code so far. The form text will update the datagridview but after I close the program it will only show the previous data before I updated it. I know I am missing something. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

if (contactedtype == "update")
                {
                    DataRow[] customerRow =
                    fabCatDBDataSet.Tables["contactlist"].Select("contactID = '" + contactedcontactID + "'");
                    //put textboxes to table
                    customerRow[0]["title"] = contactedtitle;
                    customerRow[0]["firstname"] = contactedfirst;
                    customerRow[0]["lastname"] = contactedlast;
                    customerRow[0]["jobtitle"] = contactedjob;
                    customerRow[0]["phone"] = contactedtele;
                    customerRow[0]["fax"] = contactedfax;
                    customerRow[0]["cell"] = contactedcell;
                    customerRow[0]["email"] = contactedemail;
                    customerRow[0]["notes"] = contactednotes;
                    customerRow[0]["contactID"] = contactedcontactID;
                    customerRow[0]["clientlistID"] = contactedclientID;
                    //update and save
                    this.Validate();
                    this.contactlistBindingSource.EndEdit();
                    this.tableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(this.fabCatDBDataSet);
                }

I have a lot of experience when it comes to C#. I have a game in C#, but it's a console game. I want to change it into a sprite based game.

If anyone could give me some pointers or some good beginner tutorials on using sprites. Please let me know Smile | :)

Right, you have the basics of your requirements there. They don't make much sense as they stand, so you're going to have to flesh them out a fair bit. If I were you, I'd attempt to refine the requirements out. Once you've done that, you know that you must use a for loop - but the constraint there is wrong, you have to use something other than a for loop other wise your program would just consider of a for loop with nothing in it - so make sure that things get clarified).
