The input files are produced by an application being developed by a third party so naturally we need to be able to communicate effectively what is and isn't acceptable input into our program.

I'm writing a plug-in for a program that ultimately outputs some data into a few tables. The users need to be able to analyze this data through various reports. But right now the work flow is to export the tables from my plug-in to another program like excel or access to manipulate the data and generate reports. The users aren't the most...

This is a very standard newbie question, but I am looking for an expert clever way to do this with little code. (I know how to do this long hand, with procedural code and cursors, so we can skip that part of the answer.) Basically, I have a de-normalized data set for which I need to extract a normalized table in a set processing way. T...

I work in field robotics and we have a central server keeps track of a whole heap of data to do with vehicle state, environment state, tasks, task grouping and so on.

Hence I have added an eventhandler method to the GridView's RowCommand event. In the code of said eventhandler, I need to somehow get hold of t...
I am currently working on a XML-based CMS that saves data in chunks called "items". These can be used on the website to display content. Now, at the moment I have one separate XML file for every item. Since most pages on that website use about three to four of these items, a rather small website with e.g. 20 pages has about 100 differe...
Hi there, I was wondering if there was a way to assign new data in a table to an existing foreign key. For example if i use the following loop to assign randomly generated numbers to columns in the customer table, how would I be able to link cust_id, which I have assigned as a foreign key in the Sales table, with new data created each ti...

I'm fairly new to .Net... I have several queries which will execute when the application loads. I want these queries to store the data in an object (a dataset?) which is accessible throughout the application. Should I be using a singleton class? How can a User Control within my application reference public variables in the main applicati...
I've been thinking a lot about this recently, and I wanted to know if anyone has thought of/implemented any intuitive ways of securing cookies from manipulation. I've always used the "sign it with a hash and check against the hash later" approach, but it doesn't strike me as a particularly brilliant way of going about it, and just like a...
Hi I am building an iPhone app that has some default data inside it via a property list. This data is the source for my Model. What is the best way to manage this data so the user can read (and in a couple of cases write) data from this plist?

Even though I am an economist I find that I spend more than 70% of my time doing reformatting, ETL, cleaning, etc. I spend ...
