I want to create a .DLL (my library file) so that it can be used as data source for reports (to use with .RDLC files).Can I use same .DLL in my ASP.Net application for reports as data source (here also .RDLC files).It will save my time and maintain report integrity between WinForms application and ASP.Net application.

I was wondering if it is possible to use the WPF Ribbon in windows forms(they added it in .net 4). I know about the ElementHost Control which works fine for created controls, but it doesn't seem to be able to host default controls, I could create a wpf control and put the ribbon in, but that seems like a terrible hack.(And lots of work since there are lots of controls related to the ribbon)

View 7 Repliesthis is my absolute first attempt at the mschart control in a winform, so any help would be appreciated - i have sales reps that issue quotes to customers and would like to plot number of quotes by month using the mschart control.I have a dataset populated with a single table with 2 columns in it - sales_rep and quote_issued_date (there's more, but i'd like to only focus on those two because they contain all the info i need)i have a windows form with an MSChart control dropped on to it. I'm trying to get this to work on a 'column' chart type.i'd like to count the number of records in the dataset per sales rep per monthi'd like to get the x axis to be months in the year (fixed, not drawn from the data) - jan thru dec.
i'd like to get the Y axis to reflect the highest count of rows per rep per month + say....10% (so the graph doesn't peak out at the top every time, it would be more for aethestics)i'd like to get the columns displayed in the graph to be each rep, each month (ie for january john has 10 quotes issued, bill has 5, tom has 31 - for feb john has 3, bill has 10, tom has 19 - etc etc etc) - because the form is just a quick visual, i'm dumping any code in the form load event and calling it good.
I have a desktop WinForms app that I would like to be able to connect to my Sql Server database that I have through my GoDaddy webhost. Problem is not all ISP's forward the 1433 port (like mine) so I can't connect directly to the DB from any of my home computers without buying the expensive dedicated IP address package, which has me thinking since my website can connect directly to the DB I was wondering if it might be possible for me to make a dll that would have all of the database interaction through subs and functions and all my WinForms app would have to do is connect to that dll through http or something, anyone know if I could do something along those lines?

I'm writing a desktop application that uses the main access database that will be hosted on a central server, but there will be a laptop with the app on that has an offline mode so records can be created offsite. When the laptop returns I want it needs to be synced back to the main database.
Has anybody got any pointers on a way to do this, I've briefly read about JRO but is there an alternative / better method?
Originally, I was just going to write some custom code to do this, but thought I'd check to make sure there wasn't something already out there.
I am deploying a VB.net 2010 winforms application, and when I install it on the client's machine, the install process also installs an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. The application connects to a central SQL database on the server. To install, I am using the "Publish" option in VS 2010. Why does it do that? There should be no need for a local instance of SQL Express. Is there a way to avoid installing SQL 2005 Express (I know it is free, but I would rather not have it installed if possible).

I've decided to learn Visual Basic .Net as this is what some of my colleagues work with, and this will allow me to work with them on projects.I have purchased Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Step by Step and downloaded the sample files. When I am trying to debug the first sample application (a Windows form), it is telling me that it can't load System.Drawing V4.0.0.0. However, if I create a new Windows Form application (C# or VB.Net) this works fine.
I had a look at the References tab in the project settings and System.Windows.Forms is referenced, but the version referenced is 2.0.0.0. I have removed and re-added this reference and it stays at 2.0.0.0 and I still get the error.Does anybody have any ideas as to what may be going on?
I've built a simple library to import data from XLS/XLSX files. The code runs perfectly in my WinForms app but occasionally throws exceptions when I run it from ASP.Net. The "occasional" part seems to based on file size. My test file is about 16,000 rows and 18 columns totaling about 4MB as an XLSX file. If I drop rows (down to about 12,000) it works or if I drop columns (down to about 12) it works or certain combinations of these (14,000x14, etc) it works. This leads me to believe that I'm possibly running into a memory constraint somewhere. Below is the distilled code that's not working:
Dim dsn = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=""c: est.xlsx"";Extended Properties=Excel 12.0"
Using Con As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(dsn)
Con.Open()'Exception thrown here
Con.Close()
End Using
The exception that I'm getting is:External table is not in the expected format Searches for this all talk about getting the DSN correct and since it works on the desktop I know I've got that right.My test machine is a Windows 7 64-bit with the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable - 32 bit installed. (My machine has Office 2010 32 bit installed which is why I have the 32-bit ADE installed, it won't let you install 64-bit.) I've set my IIS app pool to allow 32-bit applications which I needed to get ADE to work in the first place. I'm running the v4 Framework and as far as I know my IIS settings are pretty much standard.Like I said, the code works every time when I run it through a WinForms app but occasionally fails through ASP.net on the same machine.

Welcome to the All-In-One Code Framework! If you have any feedback,
Is it possible to set a project default for VB.NET winforms projects so that the default Modifier for controls added to winforms is Private (not Friend)?I know there's a "modifiers" property in the properties window so I can set it for each individual control however I would like to change the project so from now on myself and other developers have to specifically decide to change from friend to private. (Which I would strongly discourage them from doing).I believe there is no way of doing this, but on another forum a while ago someone mentioned it would be possible with an add-in (but didn't name the add-in or where to get it).
View 1 RepliesI hope I got all that in this question title. Let me explain. We are starting on small desktop app that will snowball into a big app with many forms. The database is SQL Server. It will have classic stored procs/functions performing classic CRUD functions. Given a table or stored proc in SQL Server what is the quickest way to create a form with all the hooks to maintain a table.
For e.g. lets assume I have table like this (most code below is pseudo code)
Table Employee
{
Name varchar(30)
DOB Datetime
Address varchar(100)
}
From this as source I want to create my Target which is form with 3 labels and 3 textboxes with add delete modify buttons (or OK button to add if not exists or modify if exists)

The code generation tool or technique that will be used should generate the correct db hooks (create SQL parameters, SqlCommand, execute sql.. basic try catch etc. Is there any open source tool to do this ? Some trick or templated approach via VS 2010 ? Worst case any third party tool ?
This is my first attempt at creating a Winforms application, and I have been developing in the .Net Framework (Silverlight, ASP.Net, WPF) for about 6 months. So, my appologies if this is a newbie question.
Basically what I am doing right now is taking the drawings of a stylus-based input, and storing them into an image field in a SQL Server database. Then, in another form, I go and get that image out of the database, and load it into a picture box. It works, but it is rather "sloppy" how it got there.When the user clicks save, it stores that image into a temporary folder, then converts it to a byte array and throws it into the database that way. Then, it deletes the file from the temporary folder. When retrieving it, it pulls it out of the database in a byte array, then converts it to an image in a temporary folder, thus displaying it on the form.
Is there a way that I can just bypass the storing of the file onto the user's harddrive both times, and go from byte array to picturebox?
I don't know what this is called so I've struggled to find an answer from google but I have a vague memory of it from t'old days.I've sub-classed (* see below) about 8 framework controls, overriden some properties and added some functionality into each one.The changes I have made are identical in every case. If I make a change, I have to go through each class and apply the same change there.I was hoping there may be a keyword such as <IncludeSourcefile "common.vb> that I can put into each class.
(* note) I use the term sub-classed but I don't know if that's the correct terminology. I've also seen it used for call-backs. Is sub-classed the correct term to use?
