View 11 RepliesI am trying to create an online forum inside of my application. Yes, I know I can make my own forum via PHP and then just use the browser object and link it back to the webpage, but my goal is to make an application that doesn't need to use a webpage (just a database, of course!)In PHP there are lines of code that will allow you to create a table and add the appropriate number of columns/rows needed to display the information in the same table (depending on how many elements are in the database).
So my question is: Can the VB.net application do a similar function? I've come up with a solution of just displaying information and either hiding/revealing objects depending on whether or not there is anything in the database to show. It's very messy and I'm desperately looking for another method.

What the Win32 API is? I have looked around but no where really outlines what it is. Is it basically a set of procedures, outlined by Microsoft for programmers in order to get services from the operating system? In essence is it the equivalent to making system calls abd and library calls in UNIX? And yes I now Windows makes library calls too.
View 2 RepliesThe scenario is that an ASP.NET webforms page will call a web service in an async manner to make about 8 web service calls to various providers for data. I would like to run them in parallel to speed things up. I also need to wait for them all to come back before moving on.
View 1 RepliesI'm fairly new to .NET programming. I am trying to check if there are settings in a database table and if not, create some default settings. The problem is that when there are no settings I need to make two calls with the datareader and it keeps giving me problems. I originally was only using one datareader but made two to attempt resolving my issue, didn't work. Then I tried closing the datareader and I get errors because it returned a nullreference.

I want to use a database table as a a queue...but the processing of these messages cannot be done from the database.I have a table that stores the requests i get from a .Net component. I now have to read the data from these tables and make http calls to 2 webservices. Based on the response received from the webservices, the data gets archived or deleted.I had a few specific questions:
1. How do i make sure that if i pick a record for processing and the http call fails I should be able to go on to the next record, and then come back to this record at the end of the run
2. Is there an alternative to using the database as a queue(like MSMQ etc.), which option is better
3. I want to maintain an audit trail of the record status. Is creating a trigger to log the changes before the edit the best way to do it?
I have been using DBTransaction for my current projects that access a single database. However, I read some documentation on TransactionScope and was wondering in which scenario would using TransactionScope be better? Or should I be replacing DbTransaction calls with calls to TransactionScope?

In my program, I created a list of a class that contains 5 picture boxes, a button, a label, an identifier, and some other stuff. I've got roughly 65 of these in this list. I'd be stupid to hard code all that in. The identifier is a 2nd way of identifying which specific location I'm working on.
Anways, all this is created at compile time. Works perfectly fine.
I then manually start a background worker that pings a collection of components. Based off the success of those pings, the picture boxes are enabled or disabled. Basically a proactive way to see if a collection of devices over multiple locations are actually working.
It's the background worker that fails because of thread-safe calls.

how I can control the tool tip popup or make calls to the text that displays based on a integer value. I'm wanting it to display a text based on a interger value inside an if statment for a picture box. So if the ingteger = 1 then tooltip.text = "" else tooltip.text = "" but that is not the correct syntax.

I am currently working on a personal project with hopes of using VB.NET 2008 to connect to my personal forum for use of both authentications into the program and group changes. People in my forum are based on ranks, the ranks are organized via the groups in the forum so if one person gains a rank they need to be taken out of one group and placed into another. With multiple people this is a process and presents a security risk should someone get kicked out but accidently be left in a group giving them access.
