Since this is not a question, I will only give a piece of advice:

- try to formulate a good, detailed and complete description of what you
want to achieve before you start implementing something
(e.g. what is swapping meant to do when three things are selected ?)
- then implement, test and debug it
- if stuck in a very specific thing, read the documentation, search Google or
codeproject, possibly launch a question here
- if stuck in general, publish all the above plus detailed description of the
behavior you observed and what it is you dont like about it.

How c# app connect to sql server on another pc in local network?

I use below conection string, but there's appear error in remote connection.
On same pc connection is OK.

mConnection = new SqlConnection(@"data source=servername\sqlexpress;" +
"database=databasename;" +
"UID=user;PWD=pass;");

Error mesage is:

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

Server Authentication is SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode.
Allow remote connections to this server is set.

What may cause this mistake?

Thanks.

Hi,

Your problem is that SQLExpress server by default has Named Pipes and TCP/IP protocol disabled. In order to connect to SQLExpress on different networked PC you should enable at least one of this protocols and restart your SQLExpress service under:

SQL Server Configuration Manager :: ... Network Configuration :: Protocols for ... :: Named Pipes and (or) TCP/IP.

Also it could be (but not necessary) required to setup client protocols on client PC.
Some other settings may be required on your firewalls and ...

After that, it should works.

Ummm, I don't think "simple" describes what your trying to achieve.

You will need some kind of develepment baord which will contain some kind of usb controller. Some of these use flash firmare which you can rebuild to your own requirements (perform your functions).

The .net framework was not designed to perform low level usb communications so you'll probably end up using a third party library.

A quick search on google pulled up these links:

Basic USB - Using Microchip Stack and C#.Net - Hardware

USB and C#

The USB library for .NET

Yes, it's more than possible. I don't know your specific requirements, but I can suggest some general approaches we normally use:
1) Using OS service directly, such as network drive mapping.
2) Using low-level IPC, such as socket and RPC.
3) Using high-level IPC, such as Remoting, DCOM and Web Service.

Best,

Hi guys,

i'am looking for a tutorial / reference
to make application SMS receiver
using .NET(C#)

i never do that before,
so i want to find a simple basic learning from site,
did anyone have a clue / recommended site?

thanks guys.

You have the chioce of using a GSM modem or a SMS gateway service.

A GSM modem will use an AT command set similar to a traditional modem which would allow you to 'query' the modem perhaps using a serial COM port.

A SMS gateway is likely to impliment thier own API or Web Service which you would consume in your application.

In both cases, the implimentation is likely to differ based on the service or hardware your use. You will therefor need to refer to the documentation provided by the manufacturer or service provider.

The following links may help:

SMS Gateway

GSM Modem

Introduction to SMS Messaging

Hope this helps

Open program and detect when it closes

kripzz14-Apr-07 19:49

14-Apr-07 19:49

Hi, i have a listview with paths to programs. I want to create a loop which opens the program, and when it closes opens the next.

<br />
foreach(ListViewItem lvi in listView1.Items)<br />
            {<br />
                Process.Start("\"" + lvi.SubItems[0].Text + "\"");<br />
            }<br />

How do i detect then the program closes?

Christian Graus14-Apr-07 20:25

You need to get a handle to the process you start and watch if it closes. I know how to do this in C++, not sure about C#

Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++
Metal Musings - Rex and my new metal blog
"I am working on a project that will convert a FORTRAN code to corresponding C++ code.I am not aware of FORTRAN syntax" ( spotted in the C++/CLI forum )

kripzz14-Apr-07 23:43

14-Apr-07 23:43

Could you please provide the code in C++?

Is it something like this?

[DllImport("user32.dll")]<br />
static extern uint FindWindow(string lpClassName, string lpWindowName);<br />
<br />
int handle = FindWindowEx(0, 0, "Notepad", null)

Then detect if it closed?

Not sure how to do that anyway.

Christian Graus15-Apr-07 0:51

No, you can call a variation of shellexecute that returns the handle and then you call an API that waits for that process to finish.

Process.Start returns an instance of the Process class representing the program you started. Hence this should work (at least the idea, I did not run it):

Process.Start("\"" + lvi.SubItems[0].Text + "\"").WaitForExit();
