Managing Form's Code In .net?
Sep 24, 2011
Whats the best way to organize code responsible for Form's content.In my case, there is a DataGridView and list, next to it, with a few options available (projects, managers, employees, etc...). Choosing any list's element fills DataGrid with proper data from database.Now, GridFill functions + handling of all add/delete/edit buttons of each list element gives quite a code in the Form's source, which bothers me a bit. How to split it then to avoid problems in the future? While googling, I've seen some advices to use partial classes, modules or just classes. Moving all functions relating the Projects, Managers, ... , to own separate class sounds like a nice idea but then comes the question how to pass all necessary data to the class functions.

I'm trying to manage an FTP server with code that requires authentication.So I need to log in, get a list of directories and files within a sub-directory, Create directory, Delete directory and Delete File. (I know how to download and upload) I can't find any documentation on how to do this...though I would think it a fairly simple question to answer I seek not answers, but understanding, that I may not solve, but learn. What good is a fish without the skill to catch it?

In a VB.NET (3.5) Windows Forms application that, among other things, creates Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) Packages, we want to be able to support the creation of packages both for SQL Server 2005 and 2008. To create packages compatible with SQL Server 2005, functionality from external Microsoft assemblies with the specific version of 9.0.242.0 are needed, and to create packages compatible with SQL Server 2008 the same assemblies need to be referenced, but with another version number, 10.0.0.0. There does not, unfortunately, seem to be backwards compatibility in that SQL-2005 packages could be created using functionality in the newer 10.0.0.0-assemblies.
Today, we have a very inefficient way of handling this. For each new release of the app, we have to: Build two different versions of the app, one "2005-compatible .exe" and one "2008-compatible .exe", by: Manually add/remove the specific 2005/2008-references at project level (properties).Comment/uncomment respective code that is not common between the two versions of the same assemblies.At installation time of the application, figure out if the machine runs SQL Server 2005 or 2008 and then install the corresponding build/version of the app.We do not ship or install any assemblies with our application but instead rely/pre-requisite on that the machine on which we install our software has either the 2005 or 2008 assemblies installed in its GAC (depending on whether SQL Server 2005 or 2008 is installed there).
I have learned that with a few tricks it is possible to reference and use identically named assemblies with different version-numbers in the very same project. But even then if we manage to do this, since the client machine always will only have only one set of the assemblies installed in its GAC (9.0.242.0 or 10.0.0.0 versions depending on which SQL Server version it has installed), and we need to reference both sets in the project to have "full support" for both 2005 and 2008, how can we avoid potential "missing dll-messages" when the client runs the app? We do not feel very excited about having to ship/install 2005-assemblies on a 2008-server and vice-versa, that would never be used by the application, even if this would constitute a solution to the above problem.

In VB.net, how can you programmatically launch a .exe file? Is there a way to check if the file is there?
I know there is some way to check using System.IO, but I have no idea. However, I have not even the slightest clue as to how to launch that .exe if it is there,

I have a class that seems to be recursively adding an EventHandler to an event. I have looked at the code but there is no AddHandler on it and there's only one method with the Handles clause.In the memory profiler it shows that the event handler is calling the event handler that is calling the event handler and so on for a rather large number of steps.

I am a beginner programmer, and taking my first course in VB.NET in college. I am writing a program that teaches the user step by step to solve a rubiks cube. One problem I am having is how to manage the 20 forms that make up my program. Currently, when the user procedes to the next step, I make the current form invisible, and show the next form.
ex. Nextbutton click
form2.show()

have been writing code to replace an old Fortran program. The Fortran program had very organized subroutines which could be called from anywhere in the project. Most of these were relatively small and left a small, easily followed main routine. I'm converting over to VB.net and when I write the subroutines they are all on the same form. Wading through 50-100 subroutines on one form is going to be messy.

After casually creating a program to manage media (music, films, photos etc.) I came across a lack of functions that could be solved be being able to identify the length/ genre/ album/ artist of the song in question. find these file attributes (using a database is out of the question due to lack of resources).I'm reading the song into a string array from the folder they are contained in with the code:
My.Computer.FileSystem.Getfiles(FolderPath).copyto(MusicArray,0)

It's me again, trying to have multiple projects in the same solution. How can I do that?
I know that the project name should accompany whatever functions I'll be calling but somewhere it does not work.
One more thing, can I include forms in all the projects I create?

An application I am developing creates a directory and text file within the directory. A button is then coded to add a text string to text file. An error is issued stating the file cannot be written to as the is open to another process. This suggests the file needs to be closed before it can be written to.

what would be the best way to manage a connection to a database in asp.net.My application is built using an N-Tier architecture.The DAL consists of static classes with methods such as
Public Shared Sub Delete( _
ByVal connection As MyConnectionClass, _
ByVal contact_id As Integer, _
ByVal contact_timestamp As Date _
[code]....
The point to note here, is that I pass the connection to the DAL from the BLL.Should I create the connections in the MasterPage, store it in an object, then pass it to my business objects as I create them (the thing I'm trying to avoid)Should I create a connection using a static class and calling a method like CreateConnection on it, from the constructor of my business objects (Something I'd like, but I don't want to have a connection per object, I'd like it to be shared for all instances of my objects, but since asp.net is multi-threaded, a static class doesn't make sense to store connections) the solution should also work well in a Windows Forms environment (So no connection storing in session, and retrieving it with a static method in a class, for the current context)?

I have a program in accounting that is used by many clients and users at the same time in a network. Many modules have a reference no. like in the receipt that increments upon saving, it also Checks whether that reference no. is already in used.
However problem arises when the many users use the same module at the same time. My question is How do you manage incremental values on each client's PC? Their local system somehow competes for the next incremental no.

What is a good approach to managing a debug and release connection string in a .NET / SQLServer application?
I have two SQL Servers, a production and a build/debug and I need a method of switching between the two when my ASP.NET application is deployed.
Currently I simply store them in the web.config and comment one or the other out, however that is error prone when deploying.

I'm making a LAN instant messenger and I'm trying to achieve something similar to how MSN will open a new chatting window when you double click on a friend. My main form has a list of friends, and I want to create a new chat window when they double click on one of those friends. I've created a "template" chat form which I want to generate dynamically, and I've run into some problems I need help with.[code]The form will only appear once as far as I can tell, and the chat form has events such as button clicks; an error occurs when I try to change something like the text property of a label for example (eg. clicking a button on the chat form changes the text of a label on the chat form will cause an error to occur). The error I actually get is:[code]Now, call me a newb if you will, but I really don't know much about threading and all that hocus pocus.
