Yeah, we know what you're doing. You're just using the wrong construct to do it.

Enums are a collection of constant values used in your source code to improve readability, consistency and supportability of the code.

That are NOT used as variable length lists of user data, which is what you're trying to do. Use an appropriate construct, such as a List<t> or Dictionary<t> if you're going to left users modify this list of names and values.

I think you're right.'ll use a dictionary. thank you all for your cooperation.

In that case, this should be considered data edited by the program and not an enumerator. You cannot use an enum in the way you want.

Enums are a structured (ordinal) collection of integral, value-type, Constants. You might say they are "tightly bound" at compile-time.

Two days ago I responded to a question about Enums here on the C# QA Forum: [^].

I hope you might find the content of that response, the comparison of an Enum with its (static) Class equivalent, and the links included in it, helpful.

It is possible to modify an Enum at run-time, but you have to use Reflection to do it, and I'd highly recommend you not do that for performance reasons, as well as reasons of unnecessary code complexity.

“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : 'I know all about it. I've already found it.'

As far as I'm concerned, the word means: 'I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.'”

You mean "enumerations" and, as said, you want something else.

You will never get perfect translation when doing it through software, since a phrase in one language may be interpreted in different ways, and sometimes will not make sense in another language. Consider the English phrases: Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.

Storing Invoice number of a document while scanning

21-Dec-13 4:39

There is no solution.

That is, unless someone comes up with artificial intelligence that can comprehend human conversion context. That hasn't happened yet, but you're free to try all you want!

Unless you enter the number through your own software, you will not be able to capture this data directly.
You could, of course, scan data on the image and with image recognition and maybe read invoice value out. That approach won't be an easy one though.

You can't. The best you can do is upload your picture to an image hosting site, like Flickr, and paste the link to it in your post.

And if you rely on nothing but a picture to "ask" your question, you're going to be flamed, not helped. A picture is definitely NOT worth a 1,000 words.

How to get Digital ProductID from registry remotely: using StdRegProv

OriginalGriff21-Dec-13 4:58

Just to add to the others comments: You can't, for good reason. This is a work-friendly site, and we want to keep it that way, so the people in charge of corporate networks don't block the site. If that happened, a lot of us would be unable to access info here which is really useful to do our jobs. The problem is that once you allow direct image posting you have to moderate the forums as well: every single question has to be vetted to make sure that nothing inappropriate is posted - because there are enough morons out there who will and do post images to any site because it s "funny". It wouldn't take many of those pictures to start us onto a blacklist, so we would have to moderate each and every question, answer, comment, and message. We don't have the resources to do that; we are all volunteers, and that kind of thing takes time and slows the posting of questions and responses. It's also serious boring, and people don't generally volunteer for dull stuff.

So instead, all images are banned, and moderation can be a lot simpler - it can be as we do it now: after the fact.
Ok, that means the one question in a thousand which would be improved by a question suffers. But the other 999 get a good, timely response. And to be honest, if you need to show us a picture, you are probably asking the wrong question anyway...

Hi Guys,
Can you please help me on this one, i have this function that i use to get the value of a registry from a remote computer, this one works fine for string values but i could not get binary values using this method, even if i change the

registry.GetMethodParameters("GetStringValue")

registry.InvokeMethod("GetStringValue", inParams, Nothing)

with

registry.GetMethodParameters("GetBinaryValue")

registry.InvokeMethod("GetBinaryValue", inParams, Nothing)

Private Sub Button7_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button7.Click
       Dim servername As String = "192.168.71.127"
       Dim options As ConnectionOptions = New ConnectionOptions()
       With options
           .Username = "Administrator"
           .Password = "mypassword"
           .Authority = "ntlmdomain:DOMAIN"
           .Impersonation = ImpersonationLevel.Impersonate
           .Authentication = AuthenticationLevel.PacketPrivacy
       End With
       Dim scope As ManagementScope = New ManagementScope("\\" & servername & "\root\default", options)
       scope.Connect()

       Dim registry As ManagementClass = New ManagementClass(scope, New ManagementPath("StdRegProv"), Nothing)

       Dim inParams As ManagementBaseObject = registry.GetMethodParameters("GetStringValue")
       'inParams("hDefKey") = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\"
       inParams("sSubKeyName") = "Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion"
       inParams("sValueName") = "CurrentVersion"
 'inParams("sValueName") = "DigitalProductid"


       Dim outParams As ManagementBaseObject = registry.InvokeMethod("GetStringValue", inParams, Nothing)
       MessageBox.Show(outParams("sValue").ToString)
   End Sub
