This is going to be great for my upload on my main form that they upload on, but for the page I am doing this on, its just to view, they will not be allowed to upload any files, just vewing files attached to a helpdesk record.

Just pass the string to the required page or store it and retrieve it from some location and do the same thing.

Help with DataSet.WriteXML

I am trying to write a dataset upon login and write certain information retrieved from an Access db (I hate Access but right now the SQL box isn't available so I'm hitting the Access db as little as possible). When I populate the DataSet and use DataSet.WriteXML it's giving weird results. Also, when I login in a 2nd time (with a different user, the only part that works is searching the XML for the user I'm logging in with if it exists then dont rewrite it) I want it to append it to the existing XML document and even this isn't working right, the .WriteXML is giving a result like

Are you using a stream or directly writing it into a file? Looks like you are opening a filestream writing the file and opening the file again and appending the 2nd user's data, in this scenario the xml will get appended to the previous xml in the file.

If you post the code you are using, then we could find out the problem.

The weird results are the XML I posted in the original post. The column names arent what they are coming from the database. Granted I dont do a lot of work with XML and I've spent some time researching it but I feel like I'm beating my head against the wall. Once I get home I'll post the code but right now I'm at work and dont have access to my home development machine.

Part 2

I do want the XML appended but the way its doing it its adding a 2nd root element which cant happen so I'm trying to figure out how to add the other users as they login without adding multiple root level elements.

How are you adding the users? From your code I presume that you have a dataset which would already contain the details of the first user, if you add a new row to the dataset and fill it with the required details and then do a writexml you should be having an xml file with a single root element and both the users details inside it. Looks like the logic your using is different from the one I have mentioned and thats why your getting multiple root elements.

Once you get back home, you can post the code and we could find out the issue.

My name is Jatinder and I work for Microsoft on the TechEd event. I generally read IT blogs to keep up with what is going on in the industry and decided to jump on in with a little plug for TechEd 2007 (June 4 – 8). This year we’ve dedicated 50% of the event content to developer specific tools with deep technical training that covers Visual Studio® 2005, Windows Vista™ development and the .NET Framework. You can also get in-depth information on building software using Visual C++®, Visual Basic® and Visual C#®. The incredible amount of information you can learn at TechEd is awesome but it is also an incredible place to network and let loose a little. The event is in Orlando, FL this year so the attendee party is at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure and the place is reserved for TechEd attendees only! Trust me, these parties are a blast. If you decide to go you should register now before it sells out like it did last year…we are also offering a bit of an incentive, all registrations before May 11th are entered to win either 1 of 5 Xbox 360 Elites (killer graphics) or 1 of 5 Amex gift cards (Disney ain’t cheap!) www.microsoft.com/teched

You would need to query the data together. Why are arent you just specifying your datasource in your webconfig file, loading the datasource, and then querying out what you need with a SQL statement?

Means you want to count number of comma or words in that string .

i have solution for counting chars in the string excluding , . and space

<br />
 string str = "edasdsadsadasda,..sdasdasd..asdsad";<br />
            char[] sep={',',' ','.'};<br />
            string[] strArray= str.Split(sep,StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);<br />
            int length = 0;<br />
            foreach (string SingleString in strArray)<br />
            {<br />
                length += SingleString.Length;<br />
            }<br />

As per our requirement i have created a word report with password.
And i am exporting it to the client system.
It works fine in some system. But in some client system the gif files are not correctly loaded. For the same when checked up in the Server the images are correctly loaded(i commented the code of deleting the file at the server). But there is some problem while exporting the same to the client Ip.

Actually while creating the document at the server i am inserting a table containing that gif images also with some formatted headningd in it....
And that table is made as a header for the word document...

I am just not able to figure out...what could be the problem ?

If any body could provide any tips or suggestion i can sychronize that code with thread....because of this that is getting pending....

Please help....

Well then you need to create a template column. Edit the header cell with your own control and then add code behind to sort.

Problem with hyperlinks

Hi all,
I have this big problem with hyperlinks I would appriciate any help please.
My web site has two datagrids on the same page. And one has a list of names of the users which are in form of hyperlinks. The second datagrid is for inserting data, and when a user inserts data I used 'Windows Authentication' for names in one column called Name.
Now this is how it's supposed to work: When any user want to see data about a particular user it's a matter of selecting his name and the data about the selected individual should be the only ones to be shown.
I got some examples on Google but they all seem not to be working.
Tha's why I'm here for help please!
Here is where I've reached:
<ItemTemplate> <asp:HyperLink id="HyperLink2" runat="server"
Text='<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"TeamOperation")%>' NavigateUrl='<%#"../Dash_Board/DashBoard.aspx?Name="+DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"TeamOperation")%>'>HyperLink
</asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
I really appriciate all the help.

Queries on Session and Application Variable

meeram3954-May-07 2:18

4-May-07 2:18

Hi,

1) I have a query on Session Variable management. When the IIS resets, will the Session needed to be reinitialize if the mode we put as Inproc? I read like this in one of the article of Session Management. But if the mode is in OutProc or SQL Server, session willnot go off and there is no need to reinitialize it again.

2) When the application variable will reinitialize? Once we declared an application, will it required to be reinitialize?

Please advice.

Thanks Wink | ;-)
