View 4 RepliesI have a piece of code which sends email with an attachment from my application. The code uses MAPI to send the email. It opens up a new email message so the user can add to the email message, and then the user clicks send.The code works fine. However there is one small problem. The email that the code opens, is always in Microsoft Outlook. Sometimes the application's user has Outlook Express set up as the default client, but my application always opens the new email message in Microsoft Outlook. (Outlook 2003. In the one user's machine that has Outlook 2007, everything works fine and the email opens up in Outlook Express.)As I searched for a solution, I saw this problem posed many times in various places on the Internet, with no solution (or none that worked). I did try several suggestions which involved creating registry settings and registering some dlls.
View 4 Replieshow to send mail via .net. However I do not seemlessly want to send the mail. I want a new mail message to open and I want to attach a file that i will export from crystal. So in short, It should use outlook on the client pc, open new mail, and add attachment. The user can then type custom message, and type email addresses.

My website creates an email from an HTML template using MailDefinition and ending up with a System.Net.Mail.MailMessage object.
Usually, I just call the Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Send method and the email is sent.
Now I need to be able to open the created email in the clients default mail program and then they click their email programs send button to send it.
I am trying to create a new MailAddress, the email is coming from Request Parameters, that is: Request.Params("fromEmail"). It is actually being sent from an android device through an http request.When I try to create a new MailAddress from this email, I get the error "The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address". When trying to create it directly, that it ma=new MailAddress("a@b.com") using the same coming string, it works, but creating it using ma=new MailAddress(Convert.ToString(Request.Params("fromEmail")) produces the error.

View 7 RepliesFirst of all, I want to say sorry if this is not a correct forum. I have built several standalone applications up until now. But now I need to create a server client application, the only database is on the server. The application itself is installed on all the client computers but not all of them are granted the same level of access to the database.

I have google it but I couldn't find the answers. So basically I want to make a Client-Server chat. I just want to creating each server for the clients to entered the chat room with each different server, e.g: client 1 and client 2 entered chat server 1 (just a name of a room), client 3 and client 4 entered chat server 2 and so on. How I can do that?
View 5 RepliesI'm not even sure where to start. I would like to create something like the ADO DataReader but that works in a TCP Client/Server scenario.Basically, in the TCP Client, I want to be able to call a certain command in the TCP Server which will return a DataReader like object, which I can then iterate through such as:
while dr.Read from the client. In each loop, I would parse out the various fields as in a normal DataReader.The reason I want to do this is to gain the inherent efficiency of the DataReader object since it doesn't first load ALL of the data. To my understanding, the typical TCP Client/Server setup using streams, would first load all of the data on the server, then transport ALL of that data to the client for processing. I want to avoid that, and just stream the data as the client requests through the Read() command which means the connection will remain open to the server while the Read() command is being issued by the client, or until explicitly closed by the client.
I am trying to create an application for official use. The idea is to built in the Chat communication. I am wrtting some code for Chat Server/client.
1) Where do I keep the DB (suppose if I have SQL server on hosted web site)
2) Can I configure DB on my home PC ( no matter where client runs throughout the world if should refer the DB on my machine)

how to create Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 for a Client Server application? The problem I faced is that when I created Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005 where the Crystal Report is displayed in the client application it does not get refreshed with data entered. It only displays data that was entered during the time of development. I think this is probably because the database path changes when deployed in a new environment while the Crystal report keeps referring to the database location at development time.

Basically i am creating a console application that will create and store client information as a .txt file it is going okay but i have come across a slight hick up i want to use something on the lines of this .....
dim lastname as string
Do Until Integer.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), LastName) = False
Console.WriteLine("Invalid input, Please try again")
Console.Write("LastName:-")
[code].....
this works fine to trap out numbers from letters but the problem i am getting is when the program calls uppon LastName it is recording 0 and wanted to know if there is a way of getting past this ..... so basically i need a way to allow letter but not numbers and symbols and then dispay a pernolised error message but at the same time use Stream writer to save was the answer is in a .txt file.
We are creating a Who wants to be a millionaire style game in VB. Our server is pulling information such as questions and answers from a Access Database and sending them to the contestants (Clients). All transfer of information is directly from the server to each client. One of the "Life Lines" we want to use is "Ask a friend", where one client is able to Instant message another client for a short time to get help on the question.

From what I can tell, this should be configuring some kind of sending option. I can kind of work out what's going on, but I don't know how I should go about re-implementing it.It's looking like the place to be putting this stuff is now in the System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient.Credentials class, but the information in there doesn't seem to bear any resemblance to what I have here.I'm almost certain I'm making some obvious error, here, but I can't see it. Can someone tell me what I should be doing?
