 I am having a problem with xsd convertion to csv file. The code below describes how I attempted to approach the problem. The code works but the output is not properly format.
ObjBISReports As DsReports (a type dataset)
.. after the dataset has been filled using sqldatadapter
ObjBISReports.WriteXml("C:\Tunde.xml", XmlWriteMode.IgnoreSchema)
Dim xslt As New XslTransform()
xslt.Load("F:\Alliance International\Projects\AIA Database Application\Application2\Components\GetOutStanding.xslt")
Dim doc As New XmlDocument()
doc.Load("C:\Tunde.xml")
'Create an XmlTextWriter which outputs to a file.
Dim fileName As String = "C:\tunde.csv"
Dim writer As XmlWriter = New XmlTextWriter(fileName, Nothing)
'Transform the data and send the output to the console.
xslt.Transform(doc, Nothing, writer)
writer.Close()
This is the stylesheet format:
"<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="text"/>
<xsl:template match="DsReports">
<xsl:apply-templates select="GetOutStandingBills"/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="GetOutStandingBills">
<xsl:for-each select="*">
<xsl:value-of select="."/>
<xsl:if test="position() != last()">
<xsl:value-of select="','"/>
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
<xsl:text> </xsl:text>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>"
Please if anyone knows a much effective means of converting xsd to csv or excel could you let me know.
Thank You

Notice you're using VB.NET - this belongs in the VB.NET forum. But since it really has more to do with the XSLT, the answer is simple: you must set the xsl:output method (assuming xsl is your namespace prefix for the XSL Transform namespace) so that the method attribute is just text. Then you must make sure that a new line is output after the last element in the CSV. A simple way is to output a CR-LF pair like so:
<xsl:text disable-text-escaping="yes"> </xsl:text>

How can I recognize the characters in a bitmap using c#?
(Im doning OCR prgram)

You could Google for 'OCR' algorithms. There is one here[^] on CodeProject.

XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader ("faq.xml");
Why is the default directory for this code = c:\winnt\system32? Maybe I'm missing something, but since this code is located inside of a ASP.Net Default.aspx file... shouldn't it default to the web root?
|
|
|
|

No it shouldn't. It has to do with the executable path or the current working directory set by the executable.
To open a file in a virtual directory, you should use the MapPath method, which is available both on the intrinsic Server property of several objects (an instance of HttpServerUtility) or on the Page class itself:
string path = MapPath("faq.xml");
XmlTextReader reader = null;
try
{
reader = new XmlTextReader(path);
}
finally
{
if (reader != null) reader.Close();
}

Thanks for the tip. Do you have any suggetions (websites) for a beginners guide to updating XML files in C#?

I'm trying to find the top of a cell in excel.
i tried this code in vba:
something = OutputWorksheet.Range("A1","A1").Top
this works fine
the only way i've found of getting c# to do the same is:
float something = (float)Convert.ToDouble( OutputWorksheet.get_Range("A1","A1").Top.ToString())
is this really the way i have to do this cast?
Thanks

Um, why convert to a Double and then cast to a Single (float)? Also, get_Range returns a Range object, from which you can get the Top and just cast that to a float like so:
Range rng = OutputWorksheet.get_Range("A1", "A1");
float top = (foat)rng.Top;

Hi everyone,
I have an application that should support two types of databases (SQL Server and Oracle). What I want to do is create a datalayer that will use SqlConnection or OracleConnection object depending on the database.
In C++ I would have done the following:
template<class ConnectionType>
class DataLayer
{
...
...
ConnectionType * type
}
DataLayer<SqlConnection> m_layer; // for example
How can I achieve the same result in C#?
Thanks,
Sincerely,
Pankaj

You would use the provider pattern, an abstract class or interface that contains the methods you would invoke. You then use the appropriate implementation (SQL, Oracle, whatever) that you could configure in the application's .config file. We've been using this since .NET 1.0 for our smart client application.
.NET 2.0 will use the provider pattern heavily: for database access, authentication, personalization, and much, much more.
For more information, you should read a couple of recent MSDN articles:

Hi. I need 3 applications working at the same time. The first one is a
Pocket PC application, the second is a web service and the third one isn't
done yet. This third app is only to receive messages (maybe a Windows Forms
application or even an ASP.NET one...)
The question is how to send messages to the third application. It should be
the web service when the Pocket PC calls a web method. How could I do that?
Remoting? I only need to send a string, so the easier method 
Regards,
Diego F.

.NET Remoting is probably the easiest way. The PPC (presumably a .NET CF application) would call the web service method, which calls a remoting method on the third application. It should be tollerant that the third application might not be running, especially if this is an application that must be started by the user (like a desktop application monitor or something).

OK, then I'll try with Remoting. Is there any consideration I should know using Remoting with web services or is just the same way as using Remoting between two console applications?
Regards,
Diego F.

You should be mindful of the service registration type. If you use a singleton - depending how the remoting object is hosted, yours calls may be synchronous while web service methods are not. This will result in synchronous-like method calls to your web service. The lifetime of the remoting object is also a factor. Basically, there's a lot of factors that go into this. If you're not familiar with .NET Remoting, I suggestion a couple of books. I just posted these earlier today, so I'll just refer you to that post[^].

Hi,
I have a combobox and now i want that you can see the first item when it's filled. Now it's empty and you can type in the combobox.
Thx!
|
|
|
|
|
You should change the DropDownStyle property to ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList. The default is DropDown and allows you type, where DropDownList doesn't. If you want the user to be able to type in new items, then you should set the SelectedIndex to 0.

Hello,
I have a xml-file where some words are in uppercase. Is it possible to edit the entire file. So everything in the file is in lowercase?
thx in advance
|
|
|
|
|
Read the entire file into a String, just like any text file, then call the .ToLower method on the String, then write the new file out to a DIFFERENT file. Write it out a different file just to make sure nothing went wrong and you still have the original file to work from.

While the two previous answers tell you how, I want to stress the "why and why not". If the XML elements and attributes are supposed to be a certain case, you should leave them. XML elements and attributes are case-sensitive. Changing them would cause any processors specific to that schema (like an XSLT or DOM parser) to fail (at least, identifying it as the appropriate doc type).
If this is a file you have created, then you must make sure that any processing is changed to use the lower-case elements and attributes.

hi
why output of this code isn't Transparent.
Bitmap b = new Bitmap(100,20);<br />
Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(b);<br />
g.Clear(Color.Transparent);<br />
g.DrawString("Test",new Font("Tahoma",8),new SolidBrush(Color.Green),0,0);<br />
b.Save("test.gif",System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif);<br />
Close();<br />
thanks.
