Thanks for your response, you are absolutely right, I should allways consider whether it's better to split the forms.

I think it depends on the user audience: is the consumer presented with the form, or is it a professional who works all day with the software.

In this case it's the input of new patients, their formal name, spouse's name, birth date, social security number, insurance data, address, pharmacy and GP etc. Combined with labels and buttons 50 items is not very much!
In maintaining the patients data I have split into several forms, and the users complain they don't have overview!

On line patients have also a possibility to enter their data, and we split that into multiple forms.

Thanks for your feedback. However when I read the link I think it's about redirecting an SMTP server to Gmail server (pc-->smtp server-->gmail server-->recipient server).
However the route will be pc-->gmail server-->recipient server.
I did try to setup the gsuite for relaying, but I think I won't be able to: We recommend that you configure your mail server to present a unique identifier (such as your domain name or the name of your mail server) in the HELO or EHLO command in the SMTP relay connections your server makes to Google. Avoid using generic names such as "localhost" or "smtp-relay.gmail.com," which can occasionally result in issues with DoS limits.
Another problem is I want to send several dozen reminder emails every morning and: The maximum number of total recipients allowed per customer in a 10-minute window is approximately 9 times the number of user licenses in your G Suite account.
As I have only one user licence i would have to spread them over about an hour!

I really am glad with the feedback, even if I can't get it to work I will still have learned something!

Thanks for your thoughts. I found this very helpful comment from Roshan Parmar on several places, and I tried to follow:
solution 2 for case 2:(see https://stackoverflow.com/a/9572958/52277) enable two-factor authentication (aka two-step verification) , and then generate an application-specific password. Use that newly generated password to authenticate via SMTP.
But unfortunately that doesn't work.

You're right it's shockingly simple to retrieve a password from the IL with ildasm, so that's why I've built a webservice to retrieve passwords and store them locally in a secure string. So this is not my question.

SMTP2GO has a free plan for 1000 emails/month. I'm between 1000 and 2000 emails/month. Their 20.000/month plan is $14 while I currently pay € 4,= for google.

thanks for your efforts to help me. I don't seek to push the limits of windows, the limit of 10.000 is very generous and sensible. I'm working on disposing my programmatically created objects so I don't bump in this limit anymore. For the time being I'm looking for a way to less annoy my users with a message that they should restart my application, instead of a ungracefull crash. Please be aware that a real solution is what I'm searching for to prevent serious harm done to me by my users!

RobScripta 4-Mar-15 13:06pm View

I do understand that the ultimate solution is to correct the code and dispose the objects. I have found that this is not as easy as it should be, so this will take some time. At the moment I have users who suffer daily from unexpected crashes and I'm looking for a fast solution while I'm working on a real solution.

Thanks Marcin,

I followed the first msdn link and it looks like the nestin plugin is exactly what I need. Currently I still use C#2008, and it doesn't work with this version, but that gives me extra incentive to proceed with the current testing of C#2013!

Thanks,
Rob

Thanks, the first link you provided answered my question. If you know the answer it is simple, I was searching for an onpaint event to override, but the celltemplate has a paint event that I can override....

RobScripta 15-Jan-13 3:26am View

Thank you for the pointer, but I allready tried in this direction. However I can't find an onpaint method to override.

I don't understand your question, and I think all the other readers don't either, so perhaps you can clarify.
Are you using a datagrid for it's master/child capabilities?
Do you want to limit the number of child records limited?
Because for all I know the number of rows displayed depends on the amount of rows in the datasource.
Perhaps the solution is in the dataset, eg the sql used to retrieve the data.

Please clarify!

Could you add to your question it's about web forms. I thought I could answer your question because in Winforms I know how to do it!

I have my own mailserver, using Postfix as mail transfer agent. As my mobile internet provider blocks port 25 I have port 2525 enabled as well. Both in my mail client and in my C# programs I use port 2525. In my mail client (Thunderbird) everything works fine, but using C# the sender IP has to be configured in "myNetworks".

I haven't studied your code, because I'm wondering why you don't use System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog?

RobScripta 25-Sep-12 14:58pm View

Thanks a lot, it looks exactly what I meant!!

RobScripta 8-Dec-11 6:08am View

You're right, but I don't know how to make it clearer.

And I've made a mistake: i've tried delegates (and nog generics as stated in my question).

Short version of my question: I want a table with functions that return strings, and I want to be able to execute these functions.

I can see how this works for sex, but I also showed my problem with LastNameUse.
Depending whether a partner name is available, the last name used is the own name or the name of the partner, and I can't think of a way to do that in your proposed way.

I'm really looking for something like
LastName = convertstringtofunction(string);
