So what ? A datetime is a datetime. What you're talking about is a rendering detail. If you're getting a date as a string, parse it with DateTime.TryParse and specify the format used. Then you have a datetime object. It doesn't care what order you want the date in, it has the values individually named.

am getting the date as datetime format only. it is working only for small dates like below 20 and within one month. if it goes to 2 different month, it is taking only one value. and not showing the error also. if the 2 dates r 02/10/2007 n 22/10 2007 also it is not working. and i tried with what u said. the same problem is comming.

will it become easy to use CompareTo in your case?

two DateTime object:
DateTime dt1 = new DateTime(2007, 10, 2);
DateTime dt2 = new DateTime(2007, 10, 22);

int result = dt1.CompareTo(dt2);
if (result == 1)
{
//dt1 is after dt2
}
else if (result == -1)
{
//dt2 is after dt1
}
else if (result == 0)
{
//dt1 is equal to dt2
}

That's because you are comparing the values as strings. If you just compare the DateTime values, it's not a problem.

 if(DateTime.TryParseExact(fieldtext, DATETIMEPATTERN, null, DateTimeStyles.None, out doctime)) {
  //DATETIME is a valid DATETIME
}

fieldtext is the string representation of the date eg "23/04/1978", DATETIMEPATTERN is the format "dd/MM/yyyy". doctime will contain a valid DateTime object if the method returns true.

For more info, check out the MSDN website.

A general hint, work with DateTime objects as much as possible and use the DateTime's ToString method at the very last moment...

good luck.

XML Schema aliases and comments

Is it possible to make aliases for elements in an XML Schema for Xsd.exe tool? I want to have localized elements/attributtes names in an XML file and english names in the generated code.

It would be also nice to have <summary> blocks in the generated code. I do not want to modify it manually because I update the schema and generate a new code sometimes. Is there some kind of 'comment' attribute or sth like that?

Maybe there is some free tool which would do these tasks for me, whatever. Please help.

Embedding icons in windows application

I have to embed multiple icons in my application so that windows can access it (i.e. Not as a managed resource). Is there any way to do it programatically/changing any prop settings of the project. Including the icons as 'embedded resource' will not help.

Now I am achieving this by opening the executable in VS IDE after building and manually adding the resource.

Hello,

you can try the following C# compiler options

/win32res:<file> Specify a Win32 resource file (.res)
/win32icon:<file> Use this icon for the output
/resource:<resinfo> Embed the specified resource (Short form: /res)
/linkresource:<resinfo> Link the specified resource to this assembly
(Short form: /linkres)
Where the resinfo format is <file>[,<string
name>[,public|private]]

for more compiler options check the belwo link

What makes you sure you can ? Do you mean the USB is used to connect to the phone ? If so, I don't get why you need to involve a PC at all. If not, from where do you hope to recieve SMS ? Is there an SDK for this, or are you just making it up ?

Sending SMS is possible through a number of webservice, easily found with google.

ProcessStart and COM port

Help me!!

I'm launching an external app using System.Diagnostics.ProcessStart() to download data from an inventory pistol. I can't integrate this app, I only can execute it. But my problem is that it download data from comm port, and when I launch it from windows all is fine and works, but when I start It from my app doesn't communicate. Seems that can open comm port.

Can somebody hel me?

Some things to check:

1. How are you starting it outside of your application? If you are using a short-cut or a batch file, check to make sure you are using the same commad-line parameters.

2. I believe only 1 application can have the COM port open, so are you sure it's not already open when you launch it from your application?

3. Are you launching the application using the same credentials? If you are changing users in your application (using impersonation) or are launching your application as a different user, then maybe that person doesn't have rights. This includes rights to open the COM port and/or write to the "download" directory, if any.

4. Finally, as a test try launching it using a small test app that only starts the third-party app. This would help rule out ProcessStart as the culprit.

Take care,
Tom

find all textbox in a form at runtime

By iterating over the controls collection of the form and check each control to see if it's a textbox

foreach(Control control in Controls)
{
TextBox tb = control as Textbox;
if (tb != null)
{
tb.Text = string.Empty;
}
}

An ASP.NET app would require a recursive solution.

May still need to do a recursive for container such as panel, tablelayout, group, etc.

<br />
protected virtual void UnbindControls(Control control)<br />
{<br />
    foreach (Control obj in control.Controls)<br />
    {<br />
        if (obj is Panel)<br />
        {<br />
            UnbindControls(obj);<br />
        }<br />
        else if (obj is GroupBox)<br />
        {<br />
            UnbindControls(obj);<br />
        }<br />
        else if (obj is TabControl)<br />
        {<br />
            UnbindControls(obj);<br />
        }<br />
	//Any other containers type<br />
<br />
<br />
        if (obj is TextBox)<br />
        {<br />
            //Do Your Stuffs<br />
        }<br />

This is not the ASP.NET forum.

You have to add your control before the page load event, in order for it to exist when viewstate is restored. Otherwise, your control is not there, and the viewstate is lost, including events.
