I am an old-timer trying to learn new tricks. Specifically developing an app for the windows phone. I am running VS2010-express for phone development and put together a few apps using the windows 7 phone emulator that comes with it. Having decided to see what a real device looks like I bought...

thank you very much! muchos gracias!

Thank you. I have avoided the use of the ajaxtoolkit but I will keep your advice in mind for when I next use it. What is the "GAC"?

This exception is thrown when loading an 'aspx' module that includes "ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager ... ". I am developing a web page and the page loads and executes correctly using the VS2010 express debugger and when using 'localhost' through Apache after 'publishing' the page to the file...

I have built two projects, each represents a web page. When I treat them singly they both work. When I put them in a multi-project solution the solution builds but doesn't run. I get an error that reads "cannot find type xxx' where xxx is the class name of a projects default.aspx file. I...

Running MS VS2010 web developer Express. I 'upgraded' from XP IIS 6 to Win 7 IIS 7 and projects that i had developed stopped working in the sense that IIS 7 did not natively support ASP.NET nor did it support Framework 4.0. After much grubbing around on the internet I got those two things...

It is indeed a stringbuilder that is returned as my post states. The stringbuilder object returned is a series of strings so that 'stringbuilder.tostring()' returns only the first of several returned catenated strings. EG if I had three lines in the section with the values 'a', 'b', 'c' the...

Chris, Thank You, Bye

Thank you for the suggestion to change and propagate the owner and permissions but how does one do that? I cannot find anything in a folder properties nor in the control panel folder option. I beat the system by creating a new folder and copying, not moving, the files to it. Microsoft did...

I move files between computers using a thumb drive. I have somehow gotten into the situation where all the files in a folder are denied write access. I am looking for a way to set the permissions on all the files together. I know how to do it individually. I have tried "ATTRIB -R *.*" but it...

I have a 'popup' (.aspx) in which I want to return control to the requesting page. I have been unable to find any reference to the calling page in the 'request' or the 'response'. I feel sure the capability is there. Can anyone direct me to it? Thanks jim murray

I have used Linq with MsSql and now I want to use it with MySql. I add a Linq to Sql class to my project and create a database connection, in the database explorer, to my MySql database. When I drag a batabase table to my linq class I get the message ... "the selected objects use an unsupported...

I have inherited a LINQ project. I am trying to do the equivalent of "select max(empid) from employees" using LINQ. My statement is var mx = (from EmpID in db.EmployeeMains select EmpID).Max(); and it barfs at the max() part. EmployeeMains is a table with column EmpID as an int. I could work...
