The binding source component in Visual Studio 2005/2008 Windows Forms provides a valuable service for data driven applications by providing automatic data binding between controls and the data source. This article shows how the functionality can be extended to add a few features to make it more useful. The most important is marking records as dirty when edited and prompting the user to save when changing records....

I was recently working on a project in which one of the requirements was that certain query results be sent to a different company via FTP. Granted things would have been much easier if the receiving company had simply set up a web service, but that didn't seem to be an option. They had their little FTP system already set up and had no interest in changing anything....

For the past 10 years or so, instead of simply using a search engine as my browser's start page, I've been using my own self-designed page. The page may not look like much, but what it lacks in looks, it more then makes up for in functionality. It has links to the sites and admin pages that I tend to access frequently, search boxes to send queries to the sites I often search, stock quotes for a few different stock symbols, the latest headlines from some RSS feeds, a link to the company phone lis...

Part of the business logic encapsulated in the Typed DataSet is the ability to add specialized queries to the table adapters to retrieve the data with different filters. By manipulating the XML schema that defines the dataset and adding the correct XML metadata, Visual Studio will generate the added queries for us. In this article, filtering queries will be automatically added to each table adapter for each field that is indexed on the table in the database....

As is usually the case for me, the idea for this article came from a project on which I was recently working. Without going into all the gory the details, the basic requirement was that something needed to happen on a daily basis. This obviously wasn't the first time I'd run into this type of requirement, but as I started digging up my normal solution, I realized that while it was tried and true, it was also horribly outdated. It was written as a .vbs file designed to run via WSH. This meant tha...

Data layers allow the abstraction of the SQL calls to a separate set of objects. The .netTiers template library (using CodeSmith) will build a data layer for your .NET web application, including the data administration website, the web service, base objects, etc. This article will start with a database with primary key and foreign key relations and use .netTiers to create all the Create Read Update Delete (CRUD) stored procedures and implement .netTiers as a data layer for a web site....

This is the second article in the .netTiers series. The first article included getting started with the template settings, generating the libraries, a first look at the admin site, a page selecting data out of the database and a page inserting data into the database. This article will include .netTiers discovery of custom stored procedures, SourceTable configuration, and adding custom code to the .netTiers library....

Sometimes it's the little things that can really make your day. That's the way I feel about Visual Studio's Code Snippets. Ever since they were introduced in Visual Studio 2005, I've wondered how I ever wrote code without them....

The first part of this article introduced Visual Studio code snippets and showed how they can save you lots of time and typing by reducing the need for you to manually type repetitive code. It also showed you how to use shortcuts to make using snippets even faster. This installment will examine the .snippet file format and show you how to expand your snippet library by both downloading packaged snippets from the Web and creating your own snippets from scratch....

One of the most frequent gripes most programmers have about ASP.NET 2.x and 3.x is that you can't implement include files across several web sites. Remember the good old days in Classic ASP when you could just put a reference to a virtual file in the code and it would automagically work? In ASP.NET, Microsoft recommends that you use DLLs to share code, but this can be hazardous and complex, especially when updating DLLs in a production environment. It would be much easier and intuitive if you co...

These days, many .NET developers are taking advantage of the fact that you can quite easily store many of an application's settings in .NET configuration files instead of hard coding them into the application's code. What surprises me is that most of these developers don't even realize that in addition to making it easy to access the values stored in these files, the .NET Framework also makes it quite easy to manipulate these values programatically....

If you're like me, you probably do your best to ensure that the .NET applications you build contain as few external dependencies as possible. Doing so makes them easier to deploy and maintain, since all you need to do is copy the application's files to a new server and you should be good to go. This has come to be know as XCOPY deployment, after the venerable XCOPY command that has been around since the days of DOS....

Getting a new ASP.NET Web development machine up and running isn't hard, but there are a lot of steps involved and it takes a fair amount of time. That's why Microsoft is working on a new tool called the Microsoft Web Platform Installer. It provides a single interface for installation of the tools needed to start developing Web applications
on the Microsoft platform....
