Directory.SetAccessControl Not Setting Permissions?
May 6, 2010I'm trying to set ACL's on a folder using Directory.SetAccessControl. More specifically, I want to grant "Users" full control on a folder. AddFileSecurity works perfectly. AddFolderSecurity does not. It's result is that "Users" will get added to the folder's ACL but "Full Control" is not checked off (nor are any other permissions). Here is the code I am using which is basically taken right from MSDN documentation [URL]

Feb 15, 2011My app needs a config file that can be written to by the user. I've got the Setup project to install it to [CommonAppDataFolder][Manufacturer]][Product] but that folder is then read only to normal users (which defeats the point really!).
I've read various articles on the internet on how to solve this, ranging from making the app a Full Trust ClickOnce app to running a separate app post install to change the permissions.
Adding Permissions To A Directory?
Feb 8, 2007I have been working on creating a small application we can run that will add permissions to a folder during an installation of a new application. The application requires read/write access to the folder and all subfolders. For whatever reason I have been instructed to include this in and install package that will be pushed out using SMS. Below is a sample of the method I use to add the user to the folder and give the appropriate rights to that user:

View 1 RepliesDirectory Searcher And User Permissions ?
Feb 9, 2011I've developed a Windows Form application that contains a function where a user will query AD using a users last name in an attempt to get a list of all domain users that contain all or part of the last name. This function works well if the user is an administrator, however in some cases a department manager, who only exist in the Domain User AD group, needs to use this function. When the user with only Domain User rights uses the function all queries come back empty. I can take the same application to another domain and user with just Domain User rights can use the function just fine.
I assume that the first domain that I mentioned might be using Group Policy to prevent Domain Users from making a query against AD.
Is it truly a Group Policy or some other setting within the domain that prevents this?
The current administrator of the first domain I spoke of is fairly new and has no idea of the workings of AD or Group Policy. All domains that I mentioned here I believe are running Windows 2003 Domains.

Forms :: Programmatically Setting Controls Visibility?
Nov 9, 2009I have a panel with 5 labels and 5 listviews in it. By default they are hidden. At runtime I want only the ones shown that are needed. For example, if there are enough players for three tables then three tables should show up. I know how to make the controls visible, but not sure how to control how many are actually displayed. I also think I may have to do seperate loops and seperate the control types?

How To Programmatically Set The Music Directory
Sep 25, 2011Because My hard drive in my Lap Top is so small I have moved a bunch of files onto an external hard drive.
The Files I have included in the move are my Music files.
I then set my music directory to these files.
No problem except one time I disconnected to go some where with out my external drive.
At which time my computer set the music directory to Nothing ("") now when I click on the "Music" button nothing happens
when I right click on the button and select property's it is completely blank with out a way to reset my music.

Programmatically Setting Custom Paper Size For Crystal Report?
Nov 5, 2008I have created custom paper Size "XPaperSize 15 x 12" in Printers - File - Sever Properties. In VB .net 2005 I am trying to set custom Paper Size for Crystal Report. My problem is when I run report from Vb .net, Crystal report viewer showing correct preview for custom paper size but when I give print command it's print default printer paper size e.g. Letter size.
Here's the code I'm using to print:
Dim ObjCrReport as new ReportDocument
ObjCrReport.SetDataSource(ObjPrintDataSet.Tables("PrintData"))
SetReportPageSize("XPaperSize 15 x 12", 1) ' call Procedure for setting Custom Paper Size
End Sub

If I used "myAppPrintOptions.PaperSize = PaperSize.PaperLegal" then print preview & Printing coming correct. Why it's printing Letter Size where Crystal preview showing custom paper size preview? & How to set Crystal Report Printer Paper Size?
Setting Focus On DataGridView Control Programmatically In Visual Basic?

So far, I have tried DGV.Rows.GetLastRow(DataGridViewElementStates.Selected)
without success, though I did not expect that to work. It absolutely must select that last cell. Otherwise, the application is nearly impossible to use!

I am trying to do the datagridview1.rows.add("info here"), however i receive an error i cannot do this programmatically.

Example, a textbox, or label, has so you can set the Text. and color, etc.Others, have it (such as datagridview) have the little icon on the control itself, where you click it, and it opens a small window with settings.
WinForms - Creating Virtual Directory Programmatically As Unprivileged User
Feb 2, 2010I'm trying to write an application that will allow a non-administrator user to create virtual directories in IIS6. I've tried numerous different ways of impersonating a administrative account but nothing seems to work to create the virtual directory.
Here's some of what I've tried:
dim sDirPath as string = "IIS://remotehost/W3svc/1/root"
Dim de As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry()
de.Path = sDirPath
de.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.Secure
de.Username = tbxUsername.Text
[Code] .....
what is the correct way to impersonate another user in winforms application that will allow me to create the virtual directory without the user that's running the application being an administrator on the web server? I know this can be done, IIS manager allows you to use "connect as" checkbox to do it.

Setting Variables To Store User Setting For Applications
Feb 13, 2012In our projects we use setting variables to store user setting for the applications. Moreover, with every latest version of the applications, we upgrade these variables to retain user settings.Normally, this works fine, but recently one of my end user reported an error i.e.Configuration System failed to initialize". The error is related to user.config file. Therefore we requested the user to send us his file.After received the folder, we noticed that it contains 3 files (3begfjb.newcfg,3begfjb.tmp and user. config). 3begfjb.tmp is an empty file, while 3begfjb.newcfg and user.config are identical files. We tried to open these files but the data in user.config isn't proper xml rather its unreadable formatted file.Do any you guys had experienced this sort of issue or any ideas how and what may have created these files and corrupted user.config file.
