The new version of Microsoft Office�the 2007 Microsoft Office System�is a great platform on which to build composite applications. This system delivers not just the familiar set of Microsoft Office clients (Office Word, Office Excel, Office InfoPath), but also several key capabilities as services that are delivered on both client applications and the server. These services are not just packaged together into a monolithic unit, but are very compartmentalized (as shown in Figure 1), ...

I have been looking for a good way for entering percentages in the same way as numeric values are entered. In the past, I used a normal NumericUpDown, put a label behind it with "%", and did the mathematics of multiplying with and dividing by 100 in the form. There is, of course, a better way to do it. Maybe, it's because it is so simple that nobody has published the source code for it on CodeProject. The control I present here also makes it easy to bind to floating point fields in a dataset....

I have searched the web (via Google) for examples on how to convert a GIF image into a transparent GIF image without much success. What I wanted was there, just not in the way I wanted it. Some of the methods I've seen on the web that converts a non-transparent GIF to a transparent GIF used unsafe code to perform the conversions. With luck, I stumbled across a couple of examples that performed the conversion without unsafe code, and I ran into Bob Powell's transparency page and voila, found what...

While working on adding an English dictionary to a company website, I ran upon the problem of mispelling a word while testing the application. As this is likely to be a common user error, I decided to read up on basic phonetic matching. While SQL Server implements the Soundex function, Microsoft Access (the format in which the dictionary is stored) does not. So the task was simple. Find an algorithm on the internet that could be used to populate a Soundex field within the database, for use in...

This code will assist web developers who want to copy data from one database to another. This assumes that both databases are the same. It also assumes that the destination table will be truncated an reseeded if the row count does not match. Some web hosting companies such as iPower do not allow remote access to import data to their SQL Server. To solve this, I created this script which allowed migration of data from our old provider to the new one....

I'm only a noob to VB programming and this is my first Codeproject article. I searched the internet for ages, just looking for some good examle code, but could not find any. So I had to start from scratch and in the end result I ended up using VB, Linq and SQL. I use Visual Studio 2008 and MS SQL Server 2008 Express Edition with full text searching installed on top of Windows XP Professional SP3. Don't know if this helps but just thought I would tell you what platform I am using....

This article uses the code found in James Curran's article, "Locate SQL Server instances on the local network". I converted his C# SqlServerInfo class to VB.NET, and used it to populate my combo box control with the SQL Server instance names found on my local network. The conversion to VB.NET was the only change to the original source code. The SqlServerInfo class broadcasts a UDP packet, using port 1434, and waits for response from any SQL Server connected to the local network. For a more in de...

This control is actually a modification of the CCheckComboBox class that was written by Magnus Egelberg, Lunalogik. Magnus' control had just about everything I was looking for in a CheckComboBox except one small feature. It did not allow you to check an item in the static text portion of the combo box, you had to drop down the list box in order to make the selections. All the drawing code in this class was written by Magnus. The only additions I made was the code to handle the check box in the s...
