yep. perfectly clear. if that's the case, then i believe all you have to do is display the report. once you do that the report should connect to the sproc automatically and pull the data appropriately. i think what you were doing before to keep this from happening was setting the data source. skip this part and let me know if this doesn't work.
if your report and/or the stored procedure requires any parameters then you'll need to supply those via code. this isn't that difficult to figure out though.
another good source for crystal stuff is brian bischoff's free ebook. it's an abridged version of a book he's since had published regarding crystal reports and .net. it requires registration though.
anyways, hope this works out for you.

Hello,
I am pretty much new to the .Net community. I read the article abt credit card validation by Paul Ingle. It was awesome. I just have a few questions though. When you r developing this application, do u create it as a windows application and go ahead and design the forms or as something else? Might sound as a basic question for you but i am still learning.
I would really appreciate any help to kind of give an insight to this whole .net thing
thanks a lot...;)

eHi,
I have written an application and want to launch it straight after install automatically. I can get it to launch but install still runs in the background until the app is closed and install then finishes.
I am using a Custom Action at commit to do this.
I also tried using
cmd = Session.Property("CustomAction")
Set wsh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
wsh.Run cmd, 7, False
where CustomAction is the name of my app. I put this in as a Custom Action but this would not work at all. It would not execute the script.
Any help would be much appreciated

Hi,
That will still run the application before install exits, wont it? I tried it and it gave me an error. Im using the same technique to get the user to enter information before the app installs.
I didnt follow your second post.sorry.
Any ideas why it wont work?
Thanks in advacnce

By the way steve,
Here's another little trick,
If you deploy the launcher you made into the temp folder, the next time the user cleans the temp folder it will be deleted.

Hey,
Using the FolderBrowserDialog i select a folder. From here i want to recurse through this folder and add it (and all its subfolders and files) to an XML file so it can then populate a treeeview.
I am having trouble recursing the Folders and files in to the correct xml nodes during the recursion.
I am using structure:
<category>
<name></name>
<file>
<name></name>
<path></path>
</file>
</category>
And for Sub Folders
<category>
<name></name>
<file>
<name></name>
<path></path>
</file>
<category>
<name></name>
<file>
<name></name>
<path></path>
</file>
</category>
</category>
Any help or tip or links would be very helpful
thanks for your time
Chris

The best way I could think to do this was to derive a class from XmlTextWriter - in my case I named it XmlFileSystemWriter. The purpose here is to add a method that will write out a directory recursively, to the Xml, in the format you want.
Here's what I ended up with:
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
using System.Text;
namespace TestApp
{
public class XmlFileSystemWriter : XmlTextWriter
{
public XmlFileSystemWriter(TextWriter w) : base(w)
{
}
public XmlFileSystemWriter(string fileName, Encoding encoding) : base(fileName, encoding)
{
}
public XmlFileSystemWriter(Stream stream, Encoding encoding) : base(stream, encoding)
{
}
public void WriteFileSystemInfo(DirectoryInfo baseDir)
{
this.WriteStartElement("fileSystemInfo");
this.WriteDirectory(baseDir);
this.WriteEndElement();
}
private void WriteFile(FileInfo info)
{
this.WriteStartElement("file");
this.WriteElementString("name",info.Name);
this.WriteElementString("path",info.FullName);
this.WriteEndElement();
}
private void WriteDirectory(DirectoryInfo info)
{
this.WriteStartElement("category");
this.WriteElementString("name",info.Name);
foreach(DirectoryInfo subDir in info.GetDirectories())
WriteDirectory(subDir);
foreach(FileInfo file in info.GetFiles())
WriteFile(file);
this.WriteEndElement();
}
}
}
Usage should be simple enough to work out:
<br />
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo("C:\\yourdirectory");<br />
XmlFileSystemWriter w = new XmlFileSystemWriter(Console.Out);
w.Formatting = Formatting.Indent;<br />
w.WriteFileSystemInfo(di);<br />
I have provided all three constructors for you so you can use a TextWriter, write to a specified file, or to a specified Stream - have a play with the above and post back if you have any problems.

Hey Jamie,
Your help proved real usefull, I have got it working writing dir structure to xml. I changed my schema though to:
<category label="Directory Name">
<file>
<name>Test1</name>
<path>C:\Test1</path>
<file>
<category label="Sub Category">
<file>
<name>Test2</name>
<path>C:\Test2</path>
<file>
</category>
</category>
The only problems i seem to be having now is recursing through the XML document to add nodes to tree view so the category attributes are the Parent and child tree nodes and the <file> <name> information is the files within either nodes.
So for example from the above XML
Directory Name
- Sub Category
- Test2
- Test1
Any help would also be appreciated on this matter, thanks very much for your effort so far.
Kind regards
Chris

There are a number of components you can buy in to do this, some of the vendors even advertise on CodeProject, so it shouldn't be too hard to search for things to do this.

Can you get something deep besides this...Getting Components from third party and build ur own...

But if you wanted to build your own, the documentation and SDK's to support what you want to do can be found at http://developer.adobe.com, for the nominal fee of $195.00 US, of course. Other than that, you'll have to search the Open Source sites, like SourceForge, for similar projects.
