Are you using HSI color space, or do you mean another property by intensity?

MCY 13-Feb-14 10:10am View

why not use if?

As an advice, I say you should stay away from office interop implementations. Instead use free third party api's such as NPOI

is this new directory on the server or on the client computer that views the web page?

umm, try moving first then reading, maybe?

MCY 24-Nov-13 15:18pm View

are you asking for reporting framework alternatives or are you planning to code your own from scratch?

MCY 17-Nov-13 4:22am View

from that little bunch of info, all I would say is try repair/reinstall.

MCY 17-Nov-13 4:17am View

you can use "if". You can also use "switch". You can even use "#if". However you like, you can do it.

I don't have much knowledge on phone-to-computer file transfer via c# and I think it strictly depends on phone brand (it could be near to impossible for iPhone, for example). But after that stage, you can show a photo in a picture box as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11487901/c-sharp-change-pictureboxs-image
and save that file to your database as binary data or string64 representation, depending on your approach.

if you try to head in push notifications direction, https://github.com/SignalR/SignalR might help.

how do you transfer photos from phone to computer?

I am not familiar with details of QR code but does \n work? i.e. enc.Encode("Name :" +txtname.Text +"\n" + "Country" +txtcoun.Text);

MCY 23-Oct-13 7:20am View

OK. What have you tried so far?

MCY 23-Oct-13 3:24am View

please rephrase your question

MCY 23-Oct-13 3:23am View

and how do you store passwords? do you hash them? plain text? in database or binary file? We need more details to come up with an idea.

MCY 17-Oct-13 10:37am View

see the links in the updated answer

MCY 15-Oct-13 12:32pm View

I have added some tutorials and example solutions. If you need help on a specific point where your code fails to work, feel free to ask. Else, these examples will clarify basics of sqlite.net.

MCY 11-Oct-13 4:59am View

your smtp server seems to allow single destination domain per send request (or transaction). That's what we can deduce without seeing the code behind.

MCY 8-Oct-13 4:02am View

and what have you written so far?

MCY 6-Oct-13 16:18pm View

np

MCY 5-Oct-13 14:46pm View

there are tutorials on plain speech recognition but noise removal and accents require extensive knowledge of signal processing and filtering, thus they are not mundane tasks to accomplish in a few lines of code.

MCY 4-Oct-13 6:31am View

use for what?

MCY 3-Oct-13 7:58am View

umm...comboBox.Items.Add("someText")?

MCY 2-Oct-13 16:48pm View

I prefer to use 32 character GUIDs combined with other stuff as file names in these kind of applications.

MCY 1-Oct-13 17:23pm View

On antivirus and firewalls, for which actions do you think you should bypass them? Some events such as installation do not trigger most of the security suites, except for paranoid ones such as Kaspersky. Do you have an example for the need of security bypassess?
On installation verification, you could follow different approaches. I have edited the answer; you can find my suggestions there.

MCY 30-Sep-13 17:09pm View

why not try something using http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/184102/Convert-Text-to-Image ?

MCY 30-Sep-13 17:04pm View

You should note that by this approach (correcting the mistakes in the comment before this one, of course), only strings you could parse would be simple equities such as x = a.

MCY 27-Sep-13 9:50am View

why not ask nitgen for any API?

MCY 27-Sep-13 9:35am View

why not add the new customer to namesCollection after you inserted it to database?

MCY 25-Sep-13 9:17am View

you can try ado.net http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dw70f090.aspx#_SqlClient

MCY 19-Sep-13 4:33am View

user name and password are the credentials. if you have them, you can control his account.

MCY 18-Sep-13 16:06pm View

first you should learn whether bank mail account has pop3 or imap support. If yes, well, you can get mails in a pop3 server as follows: Retrieve Mail From a POP3 Server Using C#[^]
But this requires your customer's credentials, therefore my recommendation is that, if possible, he should define a rule that every mail from the bank should be forwarded to your address. Then, you could use a basic string manipulations (regex or otherwise) to search for your text.
For SMS scraping, you may use GSMComm http://www.scampers.org/steve/sms/libraries.htm#gsmcomm[^] but that would require physical connection to the clients phone

MCY 15-Sep-13 15:23pm View

I see. maybe debugging and tracing line by line helps to find why no excel is created?

MCY 20-Aug-13 4:20am View

looks fine. the error is possibly in somewhere else.
If you are not using variable a in anywhere, try omitting it:
textbox2.text = textbox1.text;

MCY 15-Aug-13 9:17am View

that is not a "problem", that is a "project". What fails to work in your code?

MCY 13-Aug-13 8:50am View

I have updated the answer a little. It may solve your problem.

MCY 9-Aug-13 6:36am View

excellent questions, good sir.

MCY 9-Aug-13 6:35am View

I believe entire question text is quoted in code block by mistake. It hurts eyes.

I thought he sold several copies to different locations. for different offices of a company for example, so they do not have lan. but if they are all in the same network (same building maybe) a lan solution will also work.

true

MCY 13-Feb-12 10:13am View

MCY 13-Feb-12 10:12am View

yeah good one. but Steve's point is true & p2p system may be little complex

it is a windows app

MCY 11-Feb-12 15:33pm View

yeah figured out something is wrong hehe

MCY 11-Feb-12 15:30pm View

close the opened images before renaming?

MCY 11-Feb-12 15:22pm View

yep, that's what i usually do

MCY 11-Feb-12 15:21pm View

that's the worst sqlcommand I've seen for a while

MCY 11-Feb-12 15:11pm View

yeah, good points

MCY 4-Jan-12 12:51pm View

yeah, that's true. If you were able to get folder structure of clients, we would be in trouble :)

MCY 20-Feb-11 17:32pm View

nice links.

MCY 20-Feb-11 5:15am View

nice. 5!

MCY 18-Feb-11 14:27pm View

Isn't it a difficult task for someone with no background in programming?

MCY 16-Feb-11 6:56am View

I do not think anyone would give full coding.

MCY 14-Feb-11 18:08pm View

true, seems the easiest (and classiest) way. my 5

MCY 14-Feb-11 15:30pm View

oh, thanks.

MCY 13-Feb-11 11:17am View

good answer. 5+

MCY 13-Feb-11 5:20am View

why people do not spare few minutes to explain the problem and then wait for others to spend much more to give answers is a mystery to me.

MCY 13-Feb-11 5:18am View

I used crystal reports once or twice, but there is a point I wonder: Should any additional libraries be installed on client machine for crystal reports to work? Is .net framework enough? i.e. could a software print a report using crystal reports on a computer that nothing else is installed beyond .net framework?

MCY 13-Feb-11 5:13am View

In your solution, you call one of the client methods in server. I kindly recommend to part b of my answer; serialize the listviewitems on the server, send them to clients via TCP, then when the serialized packets arrive to the client and deserialize them, cast them to listview items. finally add them to target listview one by one. Of course, two listviews in server and client should be compatible. If not, you should do some extra work for compatibility.

MCY 13-Feb-11 5:09am View

1. on the server side, you utilize the method ListCopier, but the method is defined in client side. Is this "listcopier" also available in server? or do you somehow supply the connection between the call to the method in server and the body of the method in client?

MCY 12-Feb-11 12:16pm View

I kindly suggest naming search buttons as A B C and re-phrase the question as "when I press A, this and this should be done

MCY 12-Feb-11 12:13pm View

Easiest and most elegant way imho

MCY 11-Feb-11 4:45am View

how do you get your index value on just clicking? by clicked event?
why don't you check the value using selectedindexchanged event?

MCY 8-Feb-11 8:33am View

So you see that id is not zero in the address bar, right?
it will be easier to solve the problem if you post the code where you get the id plus how do you form your querystring plus how do you get id from querystring.

MCY 8-Feb-11 8:31am View

Deleted

I asked that because sessions do not change the stored variables. The id you present should be zero before passing to the session. it is highly possible that either you get the id from querystring as zero, you store erroneous variable, or you retrieve the wrong one.
The code you provide up states that you get id from "id = gvCheckboxes.Rows[i].Cells[1].Text;".
it will be easier if you post the code where you get the id plus how do you form your querystring plus how do you get id from querystring.

MCY 8-Feb-11 8:27am View

what type of file you have in mind? text, image, pdf, they all have different algorithms and methods.

MCY 8-Feb-11 3:49am View

I kindly suggest to use punctuation marks so that your question is easier to understand.

MCY 6-Feb-11 7:18am View

is it possible that your id is zero? have you checked its value before passing to a session?

MCY 4-Feb-11 15:36pm View

hashed values cannot be de-hashed, nor a password can be created to form the same value, as said by Henry.
if the hacker knows the password, then he does not need hashed value of it.

MCY 4-Feb-11 15:33pm View

yeah, classic and elegant approach

MCY 30-Jan-11 14:12pm View

good one

MCY 28-Jan-11 7:38am View

are input fields "html input" or asp textbox?

MCY 27-Jan-11 4:01am View

good one

MCY 25-Jan-11 17:50pm View

I agree. It is highly possible that the server will require an authentication, either by logged windows credentials or other.

MCY 22-Jan-11 8:22am View

Report of what, data in database? system status? weather?

MCY 18-Jan-11 7:48am View

yep, a most commonly used way

MCY 16-Jan-11 5:51am View

yes, it works. good one

MCY 9-Jan-11 15:12pm View

that is one of the most obscure questions I've seen around.
how? where? when?

as far as I remember versatile library has some problems with VS2010 due to deprecated filtering libraries. Still, it is a good one and work-around of this point could be found on internet

MCY 20-Dec-10 3:39am View

yeah

MCY 19-Dec-10 12:40pm View

ummm....what exactly does this code do? you do realize it is not c#?

MCY 19-Dec-10 12:35pm View

it is in a good balance of readability and length. why to disturb?

MCY 17-Dec-10 8:55am View

true. one notice that String[] text = { "hello", "elephant", "pig", "dog" };

MCY 11-Dec-10 11:53am View

what is "throw database"??

MCY 11-Dec-10 9:09am View

why not use comment instead of posting request in to form of an answer?

MCY 11-Dec-10 9:09am View

exactly. txtCipher(i+1) is a call for method txtCipher with input parameter i+1.
if you cannot change textbox names, use substring to get the number instead of split.
I do not mind having low votes, everyone is entitled to their opinion. But it would be nice to have some feedback, you know, what is the matter with the current code.

MCY 5-Dec-10 12:01pm View

you're kidding, right?

MCY 3-Dec-10 15:11pm View

you do realize that it is a complicated application and requires moderate coding time and work, right?

MCY 2-Dec-10 16:29pm View

exactly

MCY 2-Dec-10 15:42pm View

Could you please restate your question by using punctuation marks?

MCY 21-Nov-10 13:24pm View

If possible, you might want to change database architecture, prevent null FK's by seperating them into another table

MCY 21-Nov-10 13:22pm View

I do not think that sentence (having three "table" occurances) is explanatory enough to suggest a solution.
