    VB.NET to C# question - End statement equivalent?

    (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’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...

    Windows Service - FileSystemWatcher question

    Windows Service configuration needed?

    I've created a Windows service (VB.NET 2003). I've been installing/uninstalling/testing the service on my local PC. I've used the FileSystemWatcher to watch a directory on the C: drive. When a file lands in the watched directory, I create a new file in another location on the C: drive, and...

    Project References preceded by exclamation icon

We don't have anyone here who was cross trained on this code, and I'd say it's a pretty large project (relative to my...

    Hi. I’m a VB6 coder (intermediate level,) but very rusty after 22 months of software support and no new development. I’m totally new to VB.NET, and after all this time I’m expected to hit the ground running using VB.NET. No crawling before walking, walking before running, etc. I have some...

    Sorting with SQL Order By clause

    I'm brand new to SSRS, and I am using a SQL query as the dataset for my report. I have an Order By clause in the SQL which seems to have no affect on the order the records are shown in the preview. I've tried adding a group to the report to order it that way, and again it seems to have no...
