This is after ages I may be adding a comment to the thread, but thought like sharing info I had on my exp.
There are no built in libraries in dot net to convert from word to PDF, in this context its a good practise to use third party's like Abcpdf.dll where you can even embed images with paging in generated pdf.you can further refer to "http://dotnetf1.blogspot.com/2008/07/convert-word-doc-into-pdf-using-c-code.html" for third parties which are available for free of cost.

setting session as string

Hi
I have a string called db1 which contains a code value

I need to set this string as a global session for the page.
What is the syntax for this, I have tried

Session["gdb1"] = db1;

however the session appears to be blank??

thanks in advance

Two thoughts.

1. Is db1 populated at this point? If it's null then the Session will still be empty.
2. Are you running a multi-core machine? If so, you can run into problems with state management if your state service is running "in process". To get round this, you need to run your session manager as either a Sql state service or ASP State Service.

Assuming that you want to run as the ASP.NET state service, if you look in your Services, you will see one of the services is called ASP.NET State Service. This needs to be running, and you must set your config file to run the sessionState as StateServer. Typically this would look something like

<sessionState mode="StateServer" 
	stateConnectionString="tcpip=dataserver:42424" 
        cookieless="false"
        timeout="20"/>

Session variables are not global, they are specific for the user.

If you want a global value, use an Application variable instead:

Application["gdb1"] = db1;

Hi
I have to limit the input in a textbox for the mobile number. There should be no spaces and it should allow a +27.

my regex expression is:

<asp:RegularExpressionValidator
ID="regExMobile" runat="server" ControlToValidate="tMobilePhoneNumber" Display="Dynamic"
ErrorMessage="The Number should not contain spaces" ValidationExpression="\+\b.*\d{10}"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator>

But this is not working if the number is saved as +27xxxxxxxxx and they want to remove the +27 then the error message is displayed. Can anyone advise me on what I am doing wrong as I am new to this

Could you describe exactly what the valid input is that you want in all it's different forms

i.e.
+27XXXXXXXXX where X is a number
or
0XXXXXXXXXXX where X is a number
or
+0XXXXXXXXXXX where X is a number

then also exactly describe what format you want the input to be saved in.

Re: Need help with Regex

the users can type in
+27XXXXXXXXX where X is a number (it will be 12 charaters)
or
0XXXXXXXXX where X is a number (it will be 10 charaters)

it can be saved in either format. The main thing is that the +27 is optional and there should be no spaces.

You will have two parts: the prefix (either +27 or 0) then the number (9 digits). The regex would be:

(?:\+27|0)\d{9}

The "?:" part, says that we do not want to capture the text matched by the "stuff" in the parenthesis into a separate group.

If you need to get each part separately, then you could group each part, like so:

(?<prefix>\+27|0)(?<number>\d{9})</number></prefix>

Take care,
Tom

Array.Sort() fails for vanilla integer arrays? WTF | :WTF:

While it's possible, I think it's highly unlikely.

Have you googled for the exact exception message? I doubt if you've given the exact message, and Google returns no results.

Cheers,
Vikram.

It certainly does. You can't sort an array of ints if they have nulls in them. Convert intarray into a nullable int instead, i.e. make it int?. Mind you, I don't see how you could have got this code past the compiler because an ordinary int can't contain a null value so the system should have choked on it.

I already did. Add the question mark (?) after the int. So you would have

int?[] intarray = new int?[5];

Hi,
I am developing a windows application. In this I have a list box which should be populated with a list of categories in the form load event.I've used a DataReader to do this. when I add a new category it should be automatically added to the list box also.I should use a seperate form to add a new category.If it's a Web appl it's very easy as the page will be refereshed every time.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
