Absolutely. I rember reading somewhere that 80% of the cost of a project was in the maintenance phase.

Why not? It could be an additional valuable revenue stream. And if the client has the source code it means they can wander off to someone else more easily. If you keep the source code it is easier and less hassle to come back to you for amendments.

I don't know the law in either the UK or USA, but the consultant typically doesn't own the source code. The customer hires you for a job to be done and is paying for the development effort. They own the end result (which is the source code). You could be in a sticky situation if you don't turn over the source. What happens if the source code is lost/damaged/stolen ? You could be in a leagal situation.
I just want to bring some ideas to the table. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
Things to think about. Ultimately, what this guy wants to do is build a solid relationship with his client and build his reputation as someone who can be trusted and relied on. Word of mouth and personal recommendations are a great way to build your business.
Cheers.

By default the person who created the source owns the source regardless of whether they were paid to produce it or not. Most contracts will require this owenership is assigned over to the person/entity that is paying for the work.

Only if they specifically ask for it. For many people the source is irrelevant, they just want results.

Only if it was asked for.

You don't take backups if the source you are working on is belongs to someone else? That's just crazy!

Yes, they are. But you also want to do as much to protect yourself if things go wrong.

hi,
I have Problem while working with Update Panel and UpdateProgress
I have used dropDownLists in the Update Panel
But I am getting this error while running the application
Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using <pages enableEventValidation="true"/> in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page. For security purposes, this feature verifies that arguments to postback or callback events originate from the server control that originally rendered them. If the data is valid and expected, use the ClientScriptManager.RegisterForEventValidation method in order to register the postback or callback data for validation.
If anybody have solution for this , Plz Help me
Thanks.

Not sure if this belongs in the VB section or here, but here goes.
I'm just learning the .net language and I'm really enjoying it, but I've hit a roadblock.
I can't seem to get the SQL part of it going. I can't figure out how to programmatically attach to a SQL database and insert, delete or edit rows. I can make the tools do it, but not just within the code.
For now, here is what I'm trying to do. (eventually I'll build on this.)
Right now, I have a page built with nothing more than three textboxes and a button. I have a database called 'testdb' with four columns: first, second, third and control. Control is marked as a primary key and identity field. First is of type 'int', second is of type nchar(10), third is of type datetime and control is of type int.
All I want, is that when you press the button, a new record gets created in the database where each of the values you entered in the textboxes gets put in the database.
Seems simple enough, but I can't quite figure it out.
Thanks.

Sigh.
I'm still not able to make it work.
I've added the code that is listed in the web.config and the button, but where do I put the stored procedure stuff?
I'm also thinking that it somehow has to link up to my database somehow, but I don't see where I enter the information as to what my database name is. (I'm assuming that I need to create columns with the names 'name' and 'city'.
Sorry to be so obtuse here, but I'm really new to this stuff.
Thanks.

Can anyone help me with this? It's just driving me crazy. I've been working on it for two weeks now and I can't figure out how to do it and I can't find anyone I know who knows how to make it work. I've been working with the code listed on the webpage and other websites I've found and I can't get anything to run.
I even downloaded the code listed on the page, but when I run it I get :
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

This has caused an issues.
"Cannot use a leading .. to exit above the top directory."
I can not figure out what is cauing this error. Not sure if it is related to Css at all (As it is being mentioned on a number of site for people with the same error) as it does not seem to be the case here.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks

Hi,
What would be the best way to have live videos on an ASP.NET website? I have read that flash servers can do this. But what would be the alternatives?
On of our client websites are in DNN and they inquired with us if this is possible.

Blumen

Hi,
I have a website in which users save thier reports but the problem is this after filling up all the information when user clicks the submit button lots of validation process takes place. So in slow speed internet connections they often press submit twice and beacuse of that information gets duplicated.
I want to stop this duplicate entry. For this i tried to disable submit button when user clicks the button and enable it later on after all the processing is done but this doesnt work.
Help me how to do it.

what you can do is check for primary key violation.
|
|
|
|

simple fix for this is to use js to disable the button once it is clicked.

Oh didn't you notice, analogous to square roots, they recently introduced rectangular, circular, and diamond roots to determine the size of the corresponding shapes when given the area. Luc Pattyn[^]

Devesh,
There are multiple option to do it.
You can use JAVA Script to Enable and disabled the button as Yusuf suggested.
You can show a layer (Div)with proper message on you page which will prevent user to some more click on the page.
