We want to provide Crystal Reports (designed in the CR 11 IDE) for our application, which interfaces with Oracle 10g. We want the reports to connect directly to the Oracle database to retrieve data, not use any .NET datasets or other DTO type of objects, so we've used the Crystal Reports driver...

I'm trying to save an uploaded file from a C# asp.net page into a Blob field in an Oracle table. I'm putting the file into a byte array and passing that as the parameter value, but when I execute the Oracle command object (using the System.Data.OracleClient namespace), it throws an error saying...

I'm creating reports off of a pre-existing database (I didn't create the database). I need to generate a report, and part of it will have this functionality: If there is no data entered in for two fields, or if there is data entered for two fields, then display. Otherwise, don't. Possible...

We've got a weird issue...clients can access either internet explorer or Outlook 2003 as published applications. If I set the font size in the browser settings to largest, then close and re-open the browser through Citrix, the setting persists. But if I click on an email link on a webpage and...

So I uninstalled the VS.NET 2K5 Beta and installed the production version. Problem is that now I don't seem to have my VSS plug in available, and I can't figure out for the life of me how to re-install it. Groan groan... Thoughts? D

Hey all, I have a date that I need to stick into Oracle. If... Regional Settings = MM/dd/yyyy and Format in code = MM/dd/yyyy this will go through no problem. Regional Settings = dd/MM/yyyy and Format in code = MM/dd/yyyy this will error out at the Oracle level Regional Settings = dd/MM/yyyy...

We've got a wonky server running IIS 6.0...it doesn't want to serve, well, anything. If we create a web share and stick an html page in it, and navigate to the page, we get a 404-Page Not Found error. I've seen many posts that talk about how IIS 6 will only serve static pages by default, but...

Ok, so I have a .net windows service that I'm trying to install. I run my msi package and it installs without a problem. Here's where it gets weird: My service doesn't show up in the services list. But if I try to use InstallUtil, I get the message that the service has already been installed...

I have a windows service that I'm trying to install on a server (utilizes the Microsoft Application Updater Block). The problem is that when I install the service, it takes a LONG time, and finally says that it installed...but when I check my services, its not there. It does show up in the...

Hey guys, We need to write a ppc app that will check a location for an updated version. But before we get to that point, we need to be able to figure out what the version of the current app is programatically, and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Anyone done this before? This is with...

hey guys, We have a single Save stored proc for many of our business objects. In this proc, we determine whether its an insert or update. We're converting our SP's from having to pass in a bit saying if its inserting or updating, to doing it a bit smarter. We have two options, both that appear...

This is weird...it should work...but it doesn't... I have an app that salesmen use internally to access customer information and do quotes. They complained that it would time out on them (they need it to not lose session over long periods of time). So I upped the timout in the web.config to 500...

I'm so ticked. I wrote, and failed, the 70-300 exam (MSF Architecture/Design for MCSD .NET certification). The exam consists of three case studies and subsequent questions (approx 10/case study). The difference between this one and the other MCAD/MCSD exams is that your time limit is based PER...

Hey guys, I passed the 70-306 (VB.NET Windows) exam yesterday! I passed the 70-305 (VB.NET Web) exam a few weeks back, so one more before MCAD goodness! If anyone has any questions about these exams, feel free to post a reply. For study materials, I just used Test King and experience for the...

We're trying to standardize our database naming conventions, and I'm curious how other people are naming their table fields. For instance, I have a Customer table that stores an ID, first name and last name. Here are the options: custID custFName custLName or ID FName LName or CustomerID...

I have a strongly typed dataset sent from my webservice to my client app...but I can't figure out how to shove that dataset into the same strongly typed dataset on the client. I've tried just about everything, including splitting off the dataset into its own assembly and referencing it from the...
