I'm brand new to C#, and I've learned only enough VB.NET to write a handful of small interfaces, and that's the extent of my .NET experience so far. Now we're changing course to C#. I'm very glad to get the opportunity to learn it, but my roots in .NET are maybe an inch deep if that. (I've...

(I'm using VS 2003 with Framework 1.1.) I'll bet this is about as simple a question as it gets, but for the life of me I cannot find the equivalent C# statement to the simple VB.NET statment: End All I want to do is end the application. If, say for instance, validation fails, I want the...

I've seen Console applications used in VB.NET, but I've never created one because Modules served my purpose. I'll try it. Thanks. Tracey

I’m completely new to C# but have a couple years experience with VB.NET, and I’m trying to get my first C# project off the ground. My C# books are good; however they don’t answer the questions I have at this point in my project. My project will be a Windows application that does not need a...

Resolution: The XML document I was modifying in the Solution Explorer was not the one being read by the application. On the menu, go to File > Open > File... Browse to the XML document contained in the bin folder. (The project .exe is also in this folder.) Double click on the .xml...

Hello. I'm tasked with changing an existing VB.NET 2003 Windows application. (I've coded only a little .NET, lots of VB6.) I need to change the configurations, not only the properties of the existing configurable items, but also to add more configurable items. This app gets its...

This is resolved. I needed to change the following line: 'From: Dim xlApp As Excel.Application 'To: Dim xlApp As New Excel.Application

We have a VB.NET 2003 application which reads an Excel .xls file, manipulates the data, and then writes to a new Excel .csv file. The original programmer is no longer with the company. I'm a .NET beginner and have never done any .NET/Excel programming. I have no experience with...

Thank you for the information. I'm analyzing/modifying an existing application VB.NET 2003 application, and one of its features is that the data connection type is passed into the application using a command line argument. I just wanted to understand one vs. the other a little better. Again...

VB.NET 2003, SQL Server 2000 Can someone explain to me in a nutshell what is integrated security and what is a trusted connection? When would I choose one over the other? Thanks.

Thank you, Vonehle, for responding -- I appreciate it. I didn't get a chance to try your suggestion, but at the very moment I was reading it the light came on, and I realized why no rows were returned. The stored procedure was executing when I ran the code, but not returning any rows...

Hello. I'm pretty new to VB.NET, and I'm trying to get my .NET code to execute a SQL Server stored procedure and return the recordset. The stored procedure is executing, but no rows are returned into the DataReader as indicated by my message box. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? Thanks...

I made the change so the FSW watches only for the Created event. There seems to be no change. When I test while logged on to the server, the files are processed instantly. The FSW grabs the files almost faster than I can see it. But when I'm not logged into the server, and I'm pasting files...

Interesting... I'm watching for the Created and the Changed events. I'll try watching only for the Created event, and I'll let you know what happens. Thanks.

Hi. I created a Windows service which uses the FileSystemWatcher and also the server-based Timer control to monitor changes to a specific directory, and I've installed the service on the test server. The FileSystemWatcher component watches for changes to the directory and reacts when they...
