    Have you tried the Date.Parse method? Gives you a bit more control over the formatting of the date string.

    If you have a look at Forms authentication it allows you to redirect to a login page, and after the user is validated sends them to their original destination.

    Have you considered using a one of the collection classes instead of an array? ArrayList behaves like an array but also has methods lik RemoveAt which sound like the kind of thing you're after.

    as a general rule I would avoid storing pictures direct in SQL. It's often better to store them elsewhere and simple store a path to the image within SQL. It can make access slower as well as being a bit odd to work with (technical term there)

    the HttpSessionState is really there to maintain session data (variables etc.) unless the DLL explicitly puts something into the session there is nothing there to remove it. Does the DLL not have any other way to close or free up it's resources?

    Are all these threads writing to the same log file at the same time? If so you could be experiencing locking problems. You might want to look at syncronising the threads or perhaps implement a single thread to do the file IO

    Not sure if you can inherit a class returned from a webservice (never tried). You will probably nee to look at using the ISurrogateSelector interface to get round this problem http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/09/net/toc.asp?frame=true has an article on this. Hope there is an easier solution as this does look quite tricky

    could you not just use the splitters MinSize Property?

    try NameObjectCollectionBase - MSDN says these can be accessed by key or index http://ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/cpref/html/frlrfSystemCollectionsSpecializedNameObjectCollectionBaseClassTopic.htm never used it myself though...

    Look in the file AssemblyInfo.vb, there is a line similar to near the bottom of the file.

    If you install vs.Net 2003 it won't overwrite your existing installation anyway. It will hapily run side by side. (In fact you can have VB6, vs.Net 2002 and vs.net 2003 all on the same machine quite happily)

    Do you mean the DateTimePicker control?
  13. PlausiblyDamp
    declare the variable as protected in the code behind

    Is your dsl link being treated as a normal network connection or as a dial-up connection?
  15. PlausiblyDamp
    Under the project settings what is your startup object?

    Windows services typically have no user interaction when running and as such any applications spawned do not appear. I *think* that if you configure your service to 'Interact With Desktop' under Programs->Administrative Tools->Services. right click the service and go to the tab 'Log On' it might work. Out of interest what are you trying to achieve? I personally would find it very annoying if a background service kept launching browser sessions while I was working.

    very poor seems a bit harsh, it does what it sets out to do. Display a box with a message and a standard set of buttons / icons. For anything more complex a form and the .ShowDialog() function fits the bill

    Not sure if it's the best way but if you look for the folder %windir%\Microsoft.Net\Framework\ you should be able to detect the presence of .Net and the version. Could easily be faked though.
  19. PlausiblyDamp
    You really should move away from the 'old style' VB methods of FileOpen, Print etc. System.IO provides much more functionality with Streams, StreamReaders and StreamWriters as well as giving better code compatability with other .Net languages

    Putting the code in a module wouldn't prevent it freezing the UI. Your best bet would be to look into either threading or Async processing.
  21. PlausiblyDamp
    When you say Dns.GetHostByAddress crashes - what exception do you get? Also if you drop to a command prompt and type ping -a 192.168.0.1 what results do you get?
  22. PlausiblyDamp
    it sounds like that the line strRnrAbc = CType(E.Item.FindControl("rnrLblAbc"), Label).Text isn't finding a match for a control callled 'mrLblAbc".
  23. PlausiblyDamp
    If you look at the associated .vb file (WebForm1.aspx.vb) there should be a line near the top that reads public Class 'what do you have here? Inherits 'and here?
  24. PlausiblyDamp
    You could set the AutoPostBack property of the textboxes to True - but this would cause a server round trip every time you tab between textboxes.
  25. PlausiblyDamp
    Does the web server you are uploading to have the Framework installed?
