Here are the basics of my dilemma: I have a GridView in the ASPX page that is loaded in the CodeBehind. Each row contains a couple of buttons that trigger the OnRowCommand event. Wh...
We need to choose the reporting engine for our ASP.NET application. The main functional requirement is an ability for end users (not programmers, just normal users) to create custom reports.

I have an ASP.NET MVC app which is completely behind Forms Authentication. However there is one set of routes (/report/%) I need to force integrated windows authentication on, as those pages need to impersonate the current user (for security reasons). If I set the whole site to integrated windows authentication this all works, except t...
A user will be able to upload an image. If the image is greater than a set size I want to downsize it to that size. Obviously it doesn't have to match exactly due to ratios, the width would be the key size so the height would be variable.

I get this error repeatedly when developing ASP.Net applications: Cannot create/shadow copy 'XXXXX' when that file already exists Where XXXXX is a random DLL. Typically the DLL is one of the DLLs from Microsoft's Enterprise Library, but it varies. It's really random, and it's very frustrating. I will go hours without getting the e...
I have a controller action that aggregates data from multiple sources: web service, database, file lookups, etc... and passes results to the view. So in order to render the page all tasks must have completed. Currently they are performed sequentially but as they are independent I am thinking of running them in parallel as this could impr...

Hi, I'm having a Repeater used as a sort of Paging TagCloud. To do so, I've added simple properties to the Page's ViewState such as a Page, RowCount, etc...

From my initial readings on unit testing (I'm a beginner) it is wise to put all of your setups and tests in a separate project from the code being tested. This seems ideal to me, as well. However, I've recently begun reading The Art of Unit Testing, trying to discover how to break dependencies on things such as database calls. The met...
