I see. I would probable add and remove object before going into serialization or remove the nodes after. If you find your solution I'd be interested in seeing it

Can you post some code or add detail. Are you trying to serialize populated objects or take the result of a SqlDataReader and write it out in xml format?

Here are some nice samples http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vcsharp/aa336746.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vcsharp/aa336748.aspx //Here is the example class internal class car { private string _make; private string _model; private...

You might try and make a test page that just does the log, so you can see the error message. How did you set up the log. Typically I'd create a simple console installation program as the rights of a running asp.net process never seem enough to create initiate the error log. private const...

Use and enum instead of a string

I don't really understand your question, but the generic List<> is a great class to use. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6sh2ey19.aspx There is also a dictionary version if you need that http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xfhwa508.aspx

I think you went from using LINQ to using a lamda expression which is cool. I believe if yous stuck with the LINQ method and change it to use the First() method you would have one result. var vData = from min in feederData.Vehicle_sizes where min.Min_passengers...

You might check the permissions on the folder that the access db is located in and the access db file itself. You should have those users try and open the DB directly, to verify that they have access to it

I believe that VS 2008 is coming out late this year or early next year. You might wait for that. Definitly look out for configuration changes.

If you were on vs 2008 you could use extension methods like the following. How nice is this. http://www.interact-sw.co.uk/iangblog/2005/09/26/extensionmethods using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; namespace TestExtensionMethods { static...

Correction 'y' would have to be an object that is an int for DirectCast to work.

Sorry 'y' would have to be an int for DirectCast to work. If you know what you're going to convert then use DirectCast. If you don't use Parse

What about DirectCast? EX: z = DirectCast(y, Int32) http://www.panopticoncentral.net/archive/2003/07/10/149.aspx I believe this is VB equivalant to (int)someObjectYouKnowIsint

I would just google it. Just remember the reader can bring back multiple sets depending on execution order of your sql. If you run your query in sql server you'll see the result sets and the order of them and the column heading. You'll have to call NextResult or something like that on the...

I can not tell you how much better 2008 is then 2005. The new language features are so sweet it's not even funny.
