Hi! I am looking for something like image recognition in .NET. Short story what will I do: Imagine I have a jpeg picture with a man on it. The background is much brighter as the man on it. Imagine it so: You have a white paper and a black figure on it. I will automatically add 10 textboxes on the picture. But the 10 textboxes can not be positioned on any part of the figure. I need a framework or a sample code to recognize the image and set automatically the 10 textboxes of any position on the picture where the background is white. do you know any sample code or a open source framework that provide me this possibility? Regards, gicio

BIG problem with huge storage procedure execute on SQL Server 2000 SP4 Hi! I have a big problem with one of my storage procedures. First of all some information about the server: Dual XEON 4 gig RAM Windows 2003 SQL Server 2000 with SP4 On the database work at the same time 30 peoples�. But not all execute storage procedure. The storage procedure with that I have problems is executed only one time a day. The storage procedure is so huge that the SQL Server needs 11 minutes to execute it. The storage procedure do some work with data on the DB and return no values. The problem: When I execute the storage procedure directly on the SQL server ( with query analyzer ): execute OC_Auto the storage procedure works fine. BUT when I excetute the storage procedure with C# doesn�t work fine. The storage procedure runs only 2 � 4 minute and do not his complete work. But I don�t get any error messages. To execute the storage procedure I use the newest version of �Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.Data� and �GotDotNet.ApplicationBlocks.Data� And this is the code: internal void Auto() { SqlConnection currentSqlConnection = ADOConnection.Connection; try { SqlHelper.ExecuteDataset(currentSqlConnection, "OC_Auto"); } catch( SqlException ex ) { System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine( ex.Message ); Common.Logger.Log(Common.Logger.ERROR_TYPE ,"SQL Error",ex.InnerException); } catch( Exception ex2 ) { System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine( ex2.Message ); Common.Logger.Log(Common.Logger.ERROR_TYPE ,"SQL Error",ex2.InnerException); } finally { currentSqlConnection.Close(); } } public static DataSet ExecuteDataset(SqlConnection connection, string spName, params object[] parameterValues) { return new SqlServer().ExecuteDataset( connection, spName, parameterValues ); } /// <summary> /// Execute a stored procedure via an IDbCommand (that returns a resultset) against the specified IDbConnection /// using the provided parameter values.

// Assign the provided values to these parameters based on parameter order AssignParameterValues(commandParameters, parameterValues); // Call the overload that takes an array of IDataParameters return ExecuteDataset(connection, CommandType.StoredProcedure, spName, commandParameters);

Debug.WriteLine(ex); throw; } // Detach the IDataParameters from the command object, so they can be used again // Don't do this...screws up output params -- cjb //command.Parameters.Clear(); // Return the DataSet return ds; } finally { if (mustCloseConnection) { command.Connection.Close(); } if( da != null ) { IDisposable id = da as IDisposable; if( id != null ) id.Dispose(); } } } What is wrong? Why run this storage procedure only good with the SQL Query analyzer?

HI! After I install sharepoint on a win 2003 server I get a strange phenomenon. When I type in the IE http://mySharepoint the default page don�t open.

Build an enterprise application for a customer with aprox. 100 Clients ??? HI!!! If you would happen to get the chance to build an enterprise application for a customer with aprox. 100 Clients (�and increasing) which technology and architecture would you choose. The security policy is pretty strong so we would have actually only port 80 available. Besides that no deployment effort on client side is desirable. There is a 100Mbit LAN and this new application would be deployed on the intranet (internal network). The GUI of this application should be very rich and fast like win32 applications. What would you propose in order to fulfil those requirements. It is an enterprise app� so inputing data, printing invoices, packing lists, reporting, etc Clients are win xp machines It processes data on the server mainly, the presentation is on the clients Data is stored in a database 100Mbit has to do with the access speed to the backbone resources from clients.(only port 80) Any hints, links and ideas will be highly appreciated Regards, gicio
