Hi

well I just wanted to know how can we back up a database from a windows application at lets say a specifin instance of time. Wel I'm using Sql server 2000 and C# 2.0. I have made a stored procedure that can backup the database too but I was wondering that the stoored procedure is also in that database too. so what happens if the databse gets curropted and how would my application know if it's curropted or not.

thanks in advance

Open an ADO connection and run excute nonquery with a backup script such as....

<br />
<br />
BACKUP DATABASE [Northwind] TO  DISK = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup\Northwind.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT,  NAME = N'Northwind-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD,  STATS = 10<br />
GO

Handy hint, Use the SQL2005 management console (even for 2000 dbs) design you backup then hit the script buttton. Wosh.... you have your script or if you feeling professional RTFM.

Hi all, I just listen a socket for permanent data and want to save it in a file. Can anybody help me?

//Socket socket = ...

NetworkStream ns = new NetworkStream(socket);
Int32 i = ns.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
while (i != 0)
{
//Code here
}

You can save the data like this

using System.IO;

...

NetworkStream ns = new NetworkStream( socket );

byte[] bytes = null;
Int32 reveivedDataLenght = ns.Read( bytes, 0, bytes.Length );

FileInfo receivedDataFile = new FileInfo( @"C:\receivedDataFile.bin" );
FileStream fs = receivedDataFile.Open( FileMode.Append, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Read );
fs.Write( bytes, 0, reveivedDataLenght  );

Mouse point inside-outside the client area

kkadir21-Dec-06 21:46

21-Dec-06 21:46

Hello everyone,

How can I check if the mouse is inside or outside the client area.. To be more specific I have tried to make a calculation for inner controls but this do not work for the Form.

I am doing a drag-drop operation and I need to know when the user tries to drag something outside the main form. Is there a way to achieve ?

Thanks in advance and best regards !

Hello,

You could set a flag at the MouseLeave event of the Form.

Hope that helps!

All the best,

Martin

Thanks for your reply but it doesn't work.. I add a MouseLeave event which set the mouseInside booleand to false and a MouseEnter event which set the same boolean to true..

But interestingly when my mouse is over a control inside the Form the MouseLeave event is fired..

for which controls are you useing MouseLeave and MouseEnter events?

I think you should specify those two events for every control in you form.

Hope it helps

kkadir21-Dec-06 22:54

21-Dec-06 22:54

I use them hust for the main form, but definin those events for every control won't either work Frown | :(

Ohh,
sorry!

How are you draging a control of your mainform outside the mainform?

Martin

kkadir21-Dec-06 23:03

21-Dec-06 23:03

Well the exact problem is this. When the user drags a control the control moves with the mouse. When the user drops the control, the program makes some calculations and decide what to do with the control (return it to its original point, leave it where it is dropped, dispose the control etc.).

The user is expected to drag-drop inside the main form but as everyone know the user is the one who do not use the program as expected Big Grin | :-D

So when the user tries to drag the control outside the main form (sure the control stays inside the form but the mouse is outside and the left button is released outside) no calculations which are done in the drop event are made.

.:: Something is Wrong ::.

Martin#21-Dec-06 23:11

Hello,

So you have the possibilty to add the MouseLeave event additionaly to the controls.
Then you could set a flag if it is dragged and reset it if it was dropped.
If the mouse leave event is fired and the flag is still set, you have the possibility to validate whatever you whant!

Hope to help you now!

All the best,

Martin

I have similar problem. Don't we have any other solution other than adding MouseLeave and MouseEnter to inside controls.

Thanks
