If you have to write it from scratch, it may take that long for you to do it.
If you already had all the planning done, and you just had to code it, it could be 1/2 the time.
But the 80/20 rule still exists.
You spend 20% of your time writing the code, and 80% fixing things you never thought a user could do, unless of course you already have that experience. Writing and testing RegEx to validate input could consume all your quoted times.
I think a login page should not me more than 4 hours including the database table, cookies, and hashing using PWDTK, or whatever its called. And a logout page more than 2 hours.
Reports are time consuming, they take me about 3 days depending on the complexity, and if it's a HTML or Report Writer report.
When I quote jobs out, I quote the time to write the job 50%, and the time to test the job, make corrections, test validation, speed test, code analysis, user experience, 30%, and then artwork for buttons, icons, 20%. And then I add 20% more hours as a safety cap.
I do quote jobs in units of days, then break it down into hours.
I'll give you some tips that I have learned over the last 12 years.
Don't write the project for Microsoft SQL Server, use Entity Framework instead
I would just write SQL Linq for database functions, and not write out TSQL.
Just start out with BootStrap.css, and create a responsive design. Even if your using webforms and not MVC. With webforms, you can make a DLL for Entity Frameworks, or stick it in App_Code.
Write your HTML for Forms, such as textboxes as
<div class="form-group">
<label>Enter user name:</label>
<input class="form-control" />
</div>
and use the bootstrap.css to toggle form errors.
I know I'm going to get negative feedback on my suggestions here, but I should of implemented the practice years ago, and I regret not doing it. That SQL Linq is so slick, it's amazing what you can do with it. And the bootstrap.css allows you to just drop in any theme you want, plus it looks cool.

This extract whole document I just want to extract Invoice No.
For e.g If it is like: -
Invoice Number : INVC2563
It should extract only INVC2563.
The string INVC may Vary.

Yes, extract the text and then parse it to find what you need.

Does anyone know of any Rapid Development tool for Asp.net to build a database front-end with reporting in a few days.
Is Visual Studio LightSwitch any good?

Hi,
My company website is with ASP.NET 2.0 and one day the marketing guy ask me to unify domain.com to www.domain.com so that if visitors visit domain.com they will be redirected to www.domain.com and the status code must be 301 (301 Moved Permanently). He asks me to verify with http://www.redirect-checker.org/. In this site if we input domain.com and click Analyse button, if we have "Status: 301 Moved Permanently" then it's ok.
I tried with so many methods (using URL_Rewrite muldule with Canonical redirect, setup domain.com and redirect to www.domain.com, add <rewrite> rule to web.config file) and all of the methods work fine. However, I only have "Status: 301 Moved Permanently" for the first times access to the site. A second times when I access I see the site be redirected correctly to www.domain.com but the header is "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" but NOT "Status: 301 Moved Permanently" anymore.
Could you please help me how to always have "Status: 301 Moved Permanently"?
Thank you in advance

If you're hitting the correct URL, then 200 is the expected status. You should only get a 301 redirect when you hit the wrong URL.
Try testing the site with Fiddler[^].

Thanks Richard!
My goal is to have "301 Moved Permanently" result when I type my company website domain (http://domain.com) into the box in http://www.redirect-checker.org/index.php[^] and click on Analyse. Could you please show me how to obtain this result?
Thanks,

Here's the URL Rewrite[^] rule that I've used successfully on several sites now:
<rewrite>
<rules>
<rule name="CanonicalHostName">
<match url="(.*)" />
<conditions>
<add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www\.domain\.com$" negate="true" />
</conditions>
<action
type="Redirect"
redirectType="Permanent"
url="http://www.domain.com/{R:1}"
/>
</rule>
</rules>
</rewrite>

Thanks Richard!
As I said in my question, I success in redirecting with so many methods and the way you show me was one of my method to redirect the site. The only one thing that makes me in trouble that is after the first times visit, I don't have "301 Moved Permanently" header anymore.

I've tested one of the sites where I've used that rule in the tester site you linked to, and it produces a 301 redirect followed by a 200 status every time.
If you're ending up on the correct URL when you request the wrong URL, then the redirect is working.

I have made a screenshot video for your easy reference at https://youtu.be/14y3LEL5508[^]. Could you please take a look and point me out how to always have "301 Moved Permanently".
Thanks.

Looks like Firefox is caching the redirection. If you look at the headers for second request, you'll see that it's requested http://www.ocb.dev/, not http://ocb.dev/, so the 200 response is expected.
There are various suggestions to disable or clear the cached 301 response in this StackOverflow thread[^].

Hi Richard,
I have finally fixed the issue with help from a network guy in my company. I don't know what he did but I have "301" to be always presented.
Thank you very much for your help!

Hello,
I'am develloping an intranet web site, and i deploy the web site in Server A and i'd like to access to files stored in an other Server B.
My question is how can I access the files (pdf) and view them in the navigator.
Thanks

|

Depends on how you want to view them. Since this is an intranet site you could simply hyperlink to them using UNC paths, "\\server1\files\file1.pdf".

I have a number of records displayed in a Gridview. Each record contains a blank field called Code.
I want to have a field on my form, field A, which I can add a number to and there will be a button called updateCode. When I click the button updateCode I want the number in field A to be updated to the field called Code in each record displayed in the GridView.
Anyone know if this can be achieved?

Quite simple really. In your button click code, pass the textbox value to a stored procedure. In that stored procedure, update all the records. Then refresh the grid.

You can use the SSRS Report Viewer control and create SSRS Reports. You can also do Crystal Reports. I believe those are probably the 2 most common report engines used with ASP.Net.

Put an onchange event on each textbox that calls a JS function. In the function, check if all 3 textboxes have numbers in them. If so, add them and put the result into the 4th textbox.
