I'm wondering if there is a simple property in the Excel interop that returns the count of used columns--ones containing data--from a given worksheet. In example: If myWorksheet.Columns.Count returns the total number of columns in a given worksheet, is there no equivalent along the lines of: myWorksheet.Columns.UsedCount? I'm not sure ...
Have you used the Application Recovery APIs with vista? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa373347(VS.85).aspx Do you find them to be reliable and easy to work with? I am reading through some of the docs and it seems rolling my own might be a better way to go because I can make my solution compatible with XP. Has anyone taken ...

The response works on my localhost and a test server over http connection, but does not work on the production server over https connection.

Hi all, I was curious if there's a .Net API that would allow me to identify what updates are pending for "Windows Update," failing that, is there a windows powershell command that can get it? ...
Hi, I'm looking for an implementation of IDictionary with better performance of the standard BCL one. I'm looking for something with constant lookup time that performs really well with large number of elements (>10K) and is more GC friendly. Ps: No, I'm not able to write one by myself :) ...
I have built a class library project, that references a couple dll's. In the constructor of my class library project I use some enums from one of the referenced dll's. When using my class library in another project is it possible to not have to add references to my dll and the ones my class library project references internally? ...
I'm building a .NET 3.5 application and have the need to evaluate JS code on the server - basically a user provided rule set that can work within a browser or on the server. Managed JS is not an option, because the JS code would be provided at runtime. Aptana's Jaxer is also not an option. So I was looking into using a build of the V8 en...
I have a mystery on my hands. I am trying to learn managed C++ coming from a C# background and have run into a snag. If I have a project which includes two classes, a base class Soup and a derived class TomatoSoup which I compile as a static library (.lib), I get unresolved tokens on the virtual methods in Soup. Here is the code: Abst...
I'm creating a multi-tenancy web site which hosts pages for clients. The first segment of the URL will be a string which identifies the client, defined in Global.asax using the following URL routing scheme: "{client}/{controller}/{action}/{id}" This works fine, with URLs such as /foo/Home/Index. However, when using the [Authorize]...

My C# implementation only updates when the application is started after which subsequent changes to the CLR doesn't update my label content. Here's the working XAML binding. First a ...
Hi, Has anybody tried any Unit Test generators for .Net? I assume although it won't be any substitute for any good unit test written by a person who has written the functionality, but I think it will take away some of work and be a starting point on which we can better the unit tests. Thanks. ...
I've been a .NET developer for several years now and this is still one of those things I don't know how to do properly. It's easy to hide a window from the taskbar via a property in both Windows Forms and WPF, but as far as I can tell, this doesn't guarantee (or necessarily even affect) it being hidden from the Alt-Tab dialog. I've seen ...
Hi all, I've created a CLR stored procedure that I'm running on SQL 2k5 and I'm wondering if there's any way to get line numbers for exceptions thrown by the .NET code.

I have a project and it needs to access a large amount of proprietary data in ASP.NET. This was done on the Linux/PHP by loading the data in shared memory. I was wondering if trying to use Memory Mapped Files would be the way to go, or if there is a better way with better .NET support. I was thinking of using the Data Cache but not su...
I am developing a .NET (2.0) WinForms utility that connects to a SQL Server 2005 database. I have found reference material, such as Avoiding Plaintext Passwords for handling the actual encryption of the connection string data. I now need to implement the encryption during the installation process so that an administrator can install the ...
Is a string actually a character array (is-a), or does it have a character array as an internal store (has-a), or is it's own object which can expose itself as a with an array of characters? I am more inclined to say it is it's own object, but then why are we so inclined to always say "A string is an array of characters..."? ...
