It is obvious there is some funny business going on today with page views here on C9 - but it made me wonder...

do you care about page views?

I think one of the alumni to this site - scoble - the king of views might have..

If you started a blog - and no one ever read what you posted... would you continue to post?
When you make a thread on C9 - do you secretly - hope that many people view it?

or does it not matter?

What is an acceptable - post/thread worth - x - number of views?
when does it reach below worthwhile levels?

or there is no such level.. you post "because it's there"

Im just wondering how important page views are to people

?

I have instances where in IE 6 the autocomplete Extender does not show. Sometimes it does.

It works in Firefox, but looks ugly.

Crystal Reports and multiple data sources

Posted By: JakeAtCTE | Today @ 1:13 PM

Entry Media

We have several new reports that pull data from two seperate databases and need to be able to view these reports via a Windows form. We have been using CrystalHelper to accomplish this in the past but it does not allow for multiple data sources on a single report. Does anyone know of a way to get CrystalHelper to do this or knows of another way to display reports with multiple data sources in a Windows form? We are using C# in .Net 2.0

Your help is appreciated,
Jake

Access V2.0 Database/Vista

Posted By: a235301 | Today @ 1:03 PM

Entry Media

We distribute an older application that uses an Access V2.0 database. We've found that the Access 2.0 database becomes corrupt when running on Vista. Our only workaround to this is manually upgrade the database to say V2000 or V2003. Then the database behaves fine, no corruption. We're also seeing some corruptions now on XP and may be the same problem as we're seeing on Vista(although it's much, much more prevalent on Vista).

Note that we are NOT running the Access 2.0 application on Vista, we're simply accessing an Access 2.0 database from our application. That Access 2.0 database is becoming corrupted routinely on Vista.

Is anyone aware of this issue, are there workarounds? Is there a tool that I can distribute with my application where I can upgrade the V2.0 databases that are currently in place to V2000 or V2003?

I haven't found any documentation on this on the web.

Thanks!

Trouble with AutoComplete extender visibility

Posted By: qwert231 | Today @ 10:29 AM

Embed Code:

Entry Media

I am able to get my AutoComplete extender (ACE) to work, but by default, it shows up behind some of the elements further down the page. Not a good thing.

So, I've created a class for it to use:
.autocomplete_completionList {
    border: 1px solid #090;
    list-style-type: none;
    margin: 0px;
    background-color: #FFF;
    text-align: right;
}
...
<cc1:AutoCompleteExtender ID="AutoCompleteExtender1" runat="server"
...
EnableCaching="true"
CompletionListCssClass="autocomplete_completionList" >
</cc1:AutoCompleteExtender>

But with that set, I get nothing. Any ideas?

Copy/Paste from Word to DB - NOOOO!

Entry Media

Any of you guys ever have encoding problems with your text when you copy from a rich-text editor like Word, or Wordpad into something like MySQL? It jacks up certain characters, like ? ' , ... and --. What is the deal here? I'm not sure if this is encoding, or what, but I'm interested in figuring out why it does this. I typically have to go through each entry and manually delete the character (which appears italisized usually) and manually retype it again, so that it appears normal.

Any insight?

I start a new job in a week that work in WCF. I been working samples in VS 2008 just fine.

I am trying to figure out what install I need to get the project templates in VS 2005. I can create services and all just fine manually since .NET 3.0 is installed. But it would be nice to have a SVC template for example for hosting services on IIS. What do I need to install to get the templates in New Project.. and Add New Item...?

Opera 9.51 in Download

Update your version or

Download Here Opera 9.51 FINAL

from softpedia

According to the official change log (Windows, Linux, Mac), version 9.51 introduces a range on enhancements and fixes in areas such as User Interface, Mail/News, Display and Scripting, security, along with miscellaneous improvements, but also Windows-, Linux- and Mac OS X-specific tweaks. Launched just ahead of Firefox 3.0, Opera fails to enjoy the market share of Internet Explorer or the strong community support of Mozilla's open source browser and, as such, the impact delivered by Opera 9.5 was superficial, to say the leas

Apple and '30 years that sells PCs and we talk about success with sales to 4.6% (at least with regard to where it is most portable' strong that the Desktop).
Microsoft enters on a nearly saturated market such as MP3 players and acquires 4% of the market with ZUNE in a couple of years and it will be flop???

To you the conclusions
