Neither Windows, NTFS nor FAT calculate a file hash at the time a file is created or modified. Having a Hash registry of this nature is the only way that there would be a faster solution than scanning files and calculating hashes manually.There are some file systems that support it but these are not available for Windows.

Can you state what exactly is not working, if you have admin privileges and can locate the .net folder, you will be able to register a service. Not sure what you are struggling with here

PS can I get my 25 points back :)

Sounds like you may have to elevate permissions... the user running that script needs to run it as admin

The path above was for a specific version of .Net as I described: "where v4.0.30319 is the version of .Net you are targeting for the service."

The service you are creating must be targeting a specific version of .Net when it builds, you should use that version in the file path, and also consider the .Net may be 32 and 64 bit versions.

Hi Varun, this is not correct. It works on all machines that have .Net installed you just need to either install the correct .Net version, or find which version of .Net is installed.

Ah yes, that does make a difference, because remote data introduces the latency I was mentioning.

In that case, what you have said is correct except that you should not render from the same array that you are populating from multiple threads. You should routinely copy (e.g. 10 sec) the first array to a second array and render from the second array, this will reduce the period where contention can occur

Hi Sergey firstly I have not down voted your post. I really don't care about the points.

Secondly, I still disagree completely with you. It is not irrelevant that there are lines of code in a program doing nothing. That can indeed be an indicator that the wrong variable has been assigned. I take an architects view while you take a coders view.

Its a matter of prevention rather than cure. You want to look at a cake with a poo in it and work out how to bake it. I prefer not to put the poo into it.

It wasn't working code sorry as I don't have your code, it was just to help you in the right direction. The problem is because when bitmap is null (for the columns with images) its skipping the output of that column, it needs to output the cell in this case.

here just do this:

if (cell.Value == null)
{
pdfTable.AddCell("");

}
else
{
pdfTable.AddCell(cell.Value.ToString());

}

I stand by my answer, the majority of the program is redundant if Pouria did infact output the desired variable.
