I am working on designing a vacation tracking form for my job. I have written the code but I have two runtime errors. I am not quite sure why since I have taken examples out of my old visual Basic 2008 book to help write this code. I am using a database to keep all of the information on file.

I'm designing a form and trying to get different opacity values for different controls. How should i do it??eg. clear visible text floating over 50% opaque form.
View 6 Repliesim currently designing a student application form in my VS2008 Project.Theres a lot of information that the end user needs to insert for eg, Applicants Info, Parenta Info, Medical history etc What i want is some advice on how i can design this? At the moment i have too many textboxes and comboboxes for the information that needs to be provided and im losing space on the application form. Do i split the form into different parts using tabs, ie tab for student, tab for parent etc or is there a better way?
View 1 RepliesI am designing a settings form for my application as shown below: A tree view with multiple nodes at the left and I want to have one GroupBox for each node to be displayed at the right whenever a node is selected. I have designed my group box with necessary controls for the first node. The question is, how do I design an another group box in the same place when another item is already there. Is there a way to hide a control from a form during design time?

View 3 RepliesI've always found deeper-knowledge articles elsewhere, but your community is the most co-operative and your forum article-editor is the best.I'm a Systems Engineer who works in an Anonymous Company. My indirect supervisor (my boss's boss) wanted to have a custom GMail Vacation Auto-Responder that would:Have a list of involved GMail accounts.2- Connect to GMail and identify unread messages.3- Auto-Reply to the senders of those unread messages with a custom auto-reply template.Well, this could have been done easily using the GMail Atom Feed url... but since the atom only provides access to the very latest 20 unread messages, it could not be used for that purpose.
So, I had only one of two choices, either use POP3 or IMAP. Of course, IMAP was the right candidate for many considerations, the most prudent of which is its resourceful command-set. I had to design the tool (a Windows Service in this case) with minimal data transfer/session time in mind, because Google becomes touchy when you over-use IMAP with its servers.I was new to the whole Socket/IMAP thing, so I had to get my feet wet. I designed the tool, planned it well, and thought the best work-flow would go like this: Well, my boss's boss had some comments - that he never really declared which makes them IMPLICIT :D :D :D - on the way the tool works, but he decided to spell the word only when I announced that my proto-type code is done. He is not supposed to be technically involved - I mean into code - although he really involves himself into bits and bytes, and he has not even seen the code, not to mention that he might not fully understand it, but yet somehow he declared that what I did was a waste of time.[code]
I´m having a problem designing a recipes program with tag(url...) support/I dont know exactly hows the best way to build the tag system, the idea I had is this, Ill try to explain it though english its not my first language, sorry about that.[code]The idea is that since I cant save memory references, at the start of the program I rebuild the references of refRecipe iterating through stTag, searching for recipes which contains its tag name. Also, when creating a new recipe, I must search if the tags exist in stTag to just set refRecipe or create a new tag.I think this systems have a lot of disadvantages because of tag name duplicity. Though its fast to show tags and related recipes, its not when creating and editing recipe tags because of all the iterations, but its the better way I found to do it.

I see that the old xsd editor has been removed from VS 2010 (the yellow one), however I am having some serious problems with using the new Xml Schema Designer that make me reevaluate my sanity. Namely I cannt find any command or any shortcut to create xs: nodes in xsd via designer.
I am an experienced architect and am well versed in writing xsd's "by hand" but I would like to use the designer to do it since. The weirdest thing is that even when I create schema elements by hand in xml editor it does not show up in designer but rather shows up only in Xml Schema explorer, which too does not have any "add" commands. Not to mention that all entries in properties are read-only, preventing any modification?!?
When I drag and drop a manually created element to designer surface I can then see it but still cannot modify it (plus I dont understand what moving it to designer surface does at all, the element should already be in the schema?). This is by far the weridest designer I've ever seen, unless I am missing something glaringly obvious which unlocks editing?
Thought I would put this out there before I embark on my own research. In a current MVC 4 app, I am looking for a way to track/audit visitors. I am looking for a way to: Record a record on each site request. Record will include things like logged in user, session id, requested page, page coming from, etc., etc. Action methods will be decorated with an attribute to trigger the creation of that record, so we can specify exactly which action methods get logged.
View 2 RepliesOn a project I'm building for a client, one of the requirements is advanced user tracking. The client would like to know what pages an authenticated user is visiting, and when. I read through this post, which is probably the method I will go with. However, that seems a bit tolling on the database, and being that the client may use Azure to host this, I would like to keep the # of db transactions to a minimum [although this was not one of his requirements.. Anyway, I'm torn between the following two methods..
Method One: Log to db on every HTTP request using a HTTP module Method Two: Store in visits in session and log everything to database in one swoop during Session_End event

Is there a "best-practice" for such a scenario?

I have been following the development of the .NET Task Parallel Library (TPL) with great interest since Microsoft first announced it. There is no doubt in my mind that we will eventually take advantage of TPL. What I am questioning is whether it makes sense to start taking advantage of TPL when Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4.0 are released, or whether it makes sense to wait a while longer. Why Start Now?

View 1 RepliesI work on a vb.net winforms app where we currently are using simple roles for security. We enable/disable specific controls based on if the current user has the required role. We are to the point where this is no longer granular enough.Our application is based on different physical locations we call sites. A user might have permission to do something (for example, edit a site's configuration) at one site but not another. Therefore, we now need to lookup permissions based on current user AND current site. Also, a certain user's permissions may be very specific to themselves ie. no other user's permissions are exactly the same as another user's. Therefore we need a security model that's more permissions based rather than role based.
What's the best way to design a new permissions model that can meet these requirements? I want to make sure that it's easy to implement the checking in the code (I don't want a million if statements sprinkled in our SetUIPermissions methods) and we don't want to have to update every user (400+ and counting) each time we add a new permission. Because of this last requirement I think we need to keep the idea of roles but possibly add/remove exceptions for particular permissions for specific users

how I would go about designing and making a parser for a basic-like language:
var my_string = "Hello World"
var my_number = 10
Print my_string
Print my_number + 10
