A very simple one would be to create a task and run it,
Task.Run(async () =>
{
});
Otherwise, you can always consider using asynchronous programming model[^]. In which you create methods, functions with async modifiers and then use the awaits to continue processing until the work (job, whatever) has been done.
public async void getData(){
app.IntVariable = await server.GetDataAsync();
}
Also, since the error is Time out I would suggest that you configure your server also. There may be a problem with that, Timeout would occur regardless of async or sync programming being used.

What kind of app is it? WinForms, WPF, web, mobile?

It is a window service. It will run in the background and pull data from the server then save to the databse.
My Client program will read the updated value from DB

I searched and tried several codes but no positive result.
So I decided to post some parts from my sql, asp, cs code project.
The problem area is commented //.
I would be very greatful if anyone helped me giving specific recomendation how to fix that issue.

For starters, never concatenate strings to build a SQL command. It leaves you wide open to accidental or deliberate SQL Injection attack which can destroy your entire database. Use Parametrized queries instead.
Then just use your reader object:
while(reader.Read())
{
Console.WriteLine(reader["Arrive_img_ID"]);
Console.WriteLine(reader["Leave_img_ID"]);
}

I want to import documents from the scanner in my MVC web application and use optical character recognition to fetch the data.
I am not willing to use any expensive libraries like TWAIN, dynamsoft, Atalasoft, LeadTools, Asprise, etc..
I looked for Microsoft OCR, but it seems the library only works for Windows Store Apps.
Please suggest me some good yet free/cheap library for scanning and OCR in MVC web application.

|

The server can't access hardware on the client. If you're googling for OCR libraries that can be used with MVC you're not going to find anything.

You could try Tesseract. A .NET wrapper is available here[^].

Can you provide me with bit more details about Tesseract for .net. Didn't get much documentation about it.

That depends on what it is! 
If it's a Word document, then save it as a .DOC or .DOCX file, and get Word to open it. Presumably, when you saved the data you also saved a file name with it?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
|
|
|
|
|
Yes correct..i am saving it as .DOC
when i am opening, it is asking conversion from "Encoding text" and when i select "Unicode" it is displaying like that
|
|
|
|
|
Try an experiment: upload a known-working file, and then save it as a different name. Compare the two and see if there are any differences.
If there are, then you need to start by looking at how you are storing it and make sure that works first.
But...DOC files aren't all Unicode - they can be a binary format, so doing an Unicode conversion is probably going to mess them up.

Chances are that even inside your Word document and this web page there are many things that messed up the format, made it even worse.
The binary object that you captured was indeed an array of bytes containing the data (I won't say it was initially a Word document) with a format to be taken care of while converting back to a valid file. That is why whenever you store a file in the image type (in SQL image is the binary data, not the image you know) you also store the file extension or MIME type (the thing you know as "application/json" etc.). They are used to convert that data back to files.
When you copied the data, it was not of Word format, every file has its own structure that is followed when converting the bytes back to a representation of the file. Word was not able to convert it back to actual representation, in which case it showed you that broken format.
Notice that most of the content, such as those characters were easily mapped and thus they were shown to you, but a few other stuff was not mapped. Simple as that.

Ya correct..few content not mapped and some of the content mapped..tried dfferent options from Word ponit of view..but no luck
|
|
|
|

Was the file initially of Word format (.doc or .docx; Rich Text Format is a separate case)?

Yes..I am sure..its .DOC only..

I would recommend that you create the file using the stream (read the binary data using the SELECT) and then convert the stream (of binary data) to a file. In simple words, follow what OriginalGriff said above.

hi
i know how to work with Keystroke and i know how to send any keboard typing
to any open windows to focus place the cursor on local computer.
i work with GlobalKeyboardHook
now, i need to send some data to open windows on focus place using RDP
for any computer that in my net.
how to do it ? my solution dont work
(i work on C# visual-studio 2010 WinForm)
|
|
|
|
|
What are you trying to do on the remote machine?
SendKeys does not work over RDP and GlobalKeyboardHooks are for capturing keystrokes on the machine it's running on, not for sending to another machine.

hi i had learn c++ and something about the framework Qt but the problem that the Qt is not used for building apps smartphone like C# or JAVA !!
so do u advice me to leave c++ and Qt and start with C# or JAVA ??
please i need your Advice Thank you

Pick one place and post there, not in QA, C++, and C#.
Otherwise, you duplicate work and annoy people.
You have this posted in QA, so leave it there.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Don't different people participate in these forums though? There may be folks who only check the C# or say the C++ forums, and others who only check QA. I would think it's alright to cross-post in this situation.
