I created a datagrid to allow the user to select a record from a list and then return to the main program. If the user types somthing into a row (like a name) and hits enter the grid drops down to the correct spot. The only problem is that what ever the user typed into the row is saved to the DS on the record that was at the top of the display. The other items in the row remain unchanged. this makes it look like the all the data in the row is related to the one changed text box. The changed text stays until the data set is re-read. Sockets checking if a file exists ccotton33313-Jun-05 3:35 ccotton333 13-Jun-05 3:35  Hey all, I was wondering if there was a way to use sockets to check if a file exists on the remote machine, and if it exists, read the data from the file and store it into another file on the connecting machine. I'm new to sockets and i have never done anything with them, but if someone could help me or tell me if this is even the right direction to go with what i'm trying to do, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks everyone, ccotton333 Re: Sockets checking if a file exists ccotton33313-Jun-05 6:30 ccotton333 13-Jun-05 6:30  i have tried this and it won't work because oa a blank password issue does anyone know how i could resolve this here is my code: Try Dim sinfo As System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo sinfo.Arguments = "use z: \\server1\alarms /user:Administrator " sinfo.FileName = "c:\windows\system32\net.exe" System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(sinfo) Catch MsgBox("the mapping didn't work") End Try thanks for all your help, ccotton333 Re: Sockets checking if a file exists Dave Kreskowiak13-Jun-05 6:18 Dave Kreskowiak 13-Jun-05 6:18  If the machines your using for this are in the same domain, this wouldn't be necessary as each machine in the domain shares the same trusted accounts and tokens. Since it is asking for a password, I take it the machines are in workgroup mode. This means that each machine maintains its own accounts and doesn't trust accounts and tokens from any other machine. You need to supply a valid account and password for the machine that your trying to map a drive to. You might have to fiddle with this to get it to work, but your command line should be something more like: NET USE Z: \\machineName\shareName myPassword /USER:machineName\Administrator Try typeing it at a command line first. Get it to work there, ther you can move what works for you into your code.

You also have to write the client side application to actually make the request, obviously.

Well i do have a web server side and a SQL server side and the problem is that the SQL server can't reach the internet and i'm trying to figure out how to send a email out to me to alert me when a certain process occurs and i can map a drive and both sides work or i can try to view the directory of the alarm path and i supply a username and password and it works great. but when i log off the program can't reach the SQL server from the Web Server and i need to be able to access the SQL server. If you could give me any advice on how to go about this i would appreciate it. Thanks ccotton333 Re: Sockets checking if a file exists Dave Kreskowiak13-Jun-05 16:34 Dave Kreskowiak 13-Jun-05 16:34  What you said didn't make ANY sense what-so-ever. Try focusing on one topic, it'll be much easier to understand you. ccotton333 wrote: Well i do have a web server side and a SQL server side and the problem is that the SQL server can't reach the internet Are you saying that you have two machines, one IIS and one SQL? Are you saying that you can't see the SQL server from a machine on the Internet? ccotton333 wrote: and i'm trying to figure out how to send a email out to me to alert me when a certain process occurs It's easy enough to send email. Check into the System.Web.Mail namespace. What process that occurs to trigger this depends, well, on what you're monitoring for. ccotton333 wrote: i can map a drive and both sides work What?

Thanks, ccotton333 Re: Sockets checking if a file exists Dave Kreskowiak14-Jun-05 0:38 Dave Kreskowiak 14-Jun-05 0:38  That's better! It's perfectly understandable now! See what happens when you slow down, take a deep breath, and use puncuation? The problem you have is the account that your service is running under on the IIS machine. By default, this is the LocalSystem account, which only has rights to, obviously, the local machine. It doesn't have any rights to network resources since the account is local to the IIS machine. Now, what you have to do is run your service under an account, just like any other user account, that has the appropriate rights it needs to the IIS box AND, to make this easier, because these two machines are not in the same domain, this exact same account and password must also exist on the SQL box. Right-click "My Computer", pick Manage, then open Services and Applications in the left pane, then click on Services. Find your service in the right pane, right-click it and pick Properties. Click on the LogOn tab and you'll find where you can change the account that the service runs under. Oh yeah...create the account first, on BOTH machines.

There is two type of validation in One type of checking is don't allow the user to type the false values and the another one is check the value while the user leaving the text box.

Agustín VB.NET Search, Read and Write XML coleman0112-Jun-05 4:40 coleman01 12-Jun-05 4:40  Hi, Im trying to search through an XML file. When it finds the record it needs it then updates a specific field in that record. I have made it find the specified record but do not know how to update it and write it back to file. I am new to XML coding. Any help would be most appreciated. Dim xpathDoc As XPathDocument Dim xmlNav As XPathNavigator Dim xmlNI As XPathNodeIterator Dim filePath As New OpenFileDialog filePath.ShowDialog() xpathDoc = New XPathDocument(filePath.FileName) xmlNav = xpathDoc.CreateNavigator() xmlNI = xmlNav.Select("/Message/Pupils/PupilCode") While (xmlNI.MoveNext()) System.Console.WriteLine(xmlNI.Current.Name + " : " + xmlNI.Current.Value) If (xmlNI.Current.Value) = "A123981456002" Then 'ONCE ITS FOUND THE RECORD - DISPLAY A MESSAGE 'SELECT THE DIFFERENT FIELD WITHIN THE RECORD MsgBox("Found") xmlNav.Select("/Message/Pupils/PupilAge") 'THIS IS WHERE IT NEEDS TO UPDATE IT. NO IDEA HOW TO DO THIS BIT End If End While This may be the wrong way to do it - I'm not sure. I just need it to search for a specific pupil ID and update their age with a specified value. After that it has to write the entire XML file to a new file. Many thanks.
