I wonder is there an easy way to determine to complete request size (html headerder, soap envelops and the real data) for a single call. I reall...
I have a FormView (bound to an ObjectDataSource) that contains a CheckBoxList that I'd like to bind to a single property of the underlying object that is an Enum with the FlagsAttribute applied to it. Binding to the SelectedValue property always gives me just the FIRST selected value from the list as the property's value. Anyone know h...

I don't know how long an action could take and I want to display a progress bar to the user in a dialog box. I've tried using System.Windows.Forms.ProgressBar but it doesn't seem to support it. An example of what I'd want is the progress bar that windows shows you when it's looking for new drivers on the internet. It's just got three or...
I'm extending (not sure if it's the right word here) a partial Cart class that got generated in Linq to SQL database model. The business logic is that there can be only one Cart per customer. If a customer doesn't have a cart, it should be created; if a customer has a cart, it should be returned. Here's what I'm doing: public partial...
Hi folks, i'm not sure this is the best way to do the following code. I'm not sold on a foreach inside another foreach.

In Winforms I could set the ProgressBarStyle of a progress bar to Marqee, and that would have the progress bar incriment on its own without having to be set, for processes where I don't know how long its going to take, and no good way to report back to the UI. I would like to do the same in WPF, but I can't find a way to pull it off sho...

I'm generating a report via Linq to SQL and displaying it on the website. I need to save the report in MS Excel (or .csv) and email it to user. Any ideas on how to save it as Excel or .csv ? .NET 3.5 / C# EDIT: the Gridview hack works perfect. If you use AJAX on the page, make sure you add a PostBaseTrigger to your Update Panel to...

I've got a bunch of DLL projects that I'm pulling into my application, each contains their own Settings.settings/app.config. When I compile the app and run for debugging, everything works just fine, but come deployment time I can't get my DLLs to read their own settings files. I've been doing some reading and it has become apparent tha...

I'm working a a project for a new web app. I'm identifying the key points of functionality, and one thing that I clearly don't know how to approach is as follows: Once per minute the server needs to run a series of calcs on its data, and post new derived summaries. So in essence what I need is a way to run a server side script once p...
