    More DotNet Crystal Angst

    OK I got worked up with problem, but I found the solution, so if anyone else out there is having the same problem... The HotFix "cr10netwin_en.zip" solves the print issue. Two things though: 1) It is an English only fix (yes I'm not in an English speaking country... France to be...

    More DotNet Crystal Angst

    Hi all, I know this isn't appreciated but I'm cross posting this in VB.NET and Crystal Reports Other Topics (I need an answer fast). When I print a report using rpt.PrintToPrinter(...), the report comes out as wanted. When I print the same report using the CrystalReport Viewer object...

    Stored Procedure?

    Hi Michael, If you are using MS SQL Server you can use the COALESCE function SELECT COALESCE(MyField, 'My value') FROM MyTable If MyField is NULL this displays 'My value' instead. As for Crystal you can also create a formula which does the same thing... If IsNull(MyField) Then 'My value'...

    Should I learn C# or VB.NET?

    All depends which programming languages you know already... If you are a hardcore C programmer or a java fan go for C#. If you are a VB'er or come from a 4GL environment (my case) go for VB.NET. Anyway, once you're up to speed, going from one language to the other is no problem. You can even...

    .NET hangs

    Hi, I had this problem, so I upgraded to XP Pro, works a lot better. Some thoughts... I have remarked that sometimes you have to restart the debug session (little backwards pointing arrow) for it to work. Does your .exe work? Check for updates .NET framework SP2 etc... Good luck, phirst.

    filter ADO.net dataset

    Hi, Use a dataview to filter your data: Dim dtMaster as DataTable = dsCustomers.Tables(0) Dim dv as DataView = New DataView(dt) dv.Filter = "surname like '" & txtName.Text & "%'" You will have to bind your data grid to the dataview for this to work. DataView also has a...

    VB.NET DataGrid

    Hi, I had a similar problem wanting to add a button as a datagrid column, I finally used a underlined textbox field and simulated a hyper-link. This shows that we always get there in the end, even if it hurts banging our head against the wall for days! Here is an excellent site for tips on...

    Should i allow deletion of child records ??

    Hi miq, The answer depends on the data to be kept in the tables. If the tables were order and order-line, deleting the order should delete the order-lines. If the tables were user-group and user, you should perhaps restrict the deletion of the user-group if there were still users in it. Thus...

    Object Programming tooltip question.

    Hi john, I think this is what you need. Just add <Description(&quot;your property description&quot;)> _ to the line before the property function. (Don't forget the underscore, this is all part of the property line) Cheers Paul.

    Tabbing through fields

    Hi, Bring your form up in design mode. Click on menu &quot;Display&quot; and option &quot;Tabulation Order&quot; Now the tab order of every object is displayed on the form. Click each object in the order you want them to tab, the tab order changes (starting at 0). Save when finished. Enjoy!

    Hi all, I'm planning to upgrade

    Thanx again for your comments, there seems to be a definite swing for NVidia. But what if I say &quot;MPEG decompression&quot;? (DVD, Divx...) ATI does hardware decompression, but Geforce2 does not. Then again the Athlon should take care of it!? Comments welcome... Cheers.

    Hi all, I'm planning to upgrade

    Thanx Martin & dakota81, I'd heard ATI had driver problems so I guess NVidia is the way go. Cheers!
