Clean deletes all the objects created by a build. Useful sometimes if you just want to package all the source code into a zip file or copy them to a different location. Rebuild is merely a Clean followed by a Build. It's time for a new signature.

Too many pronouns. When you ran "it", is "it" an exe, a method? If "it" is a method I would not expect a singlton to run the code to create an instance more than once. That is what makes something a singleton. Your description of the situation is far too vague to really give you any concrete answers.

I always use the singletom to save the system setting. Because I never do the unit testing, I do not know why some people avoid singletons, perhaps there is better way than this.

>> What's the use of doing it this way? By using AOP you can model cross cutting concerns and apply these to the rest of your model. Think about how how inheritence works for OOP. Inheritance in OOP makes it possible to reuse code from a baseclass to a subclass. In a similair way you can reuse code via AOP. Lets say you need logging in all your business methods. Then you can apply the same logic onto all of them via AOP. So you can think of it as inheritence at method level, you let a method inherit logic. These magic fragments of code are called an "interceptor" or an "advice" The most naive and obvious usages of AOP is logging and security. But there are lots of other usecases. Personally I used AOP (using my own framework NAspect) to apply things like data binding support and dirty tracking onto ordinairy classes. One common argument against AOP is that it makes it hard to see what happens. e.g. you can not see that the logging code will execute when you look at the code. This is true, and could be a problem. This is ofcourse a very simplified view on AOP, but I hope it gives some idea on what it can do. My Blog

I'm not looking to use it as a menu. I have links across that are used over all pages irrespective where you, so menu control will not work. Like for example Contact Us, Terms and Conditions, etc. How would I do these links? I can use html links like I showed in my example, but how do I get the href part correct as "../" won't work. Please can someone advise?

Did Ashcroft' answer help? You will have to change all references to these field names in all Functions and Stored Procedues that call them in code. I don't speak Idiot - please talk slowly and clearly 'This space for rent' Driven to the arms of Heineken by the wife

Thanks Navaneeth :)

OK, ProductType would be Book, ProductCategory would be NonFiction Product: ProductCategory would be NonFiction Name would be Book Title You could then select from your tables as so: SELECT * FROM Product p JOIN ProductCategory pc ON p.ProductCategory_ID = pc.ID JOIN ProductType pt ON pc.ProductType_ID = pt.ID WHERE pt.Name = 'Book' this gives you much flexibility selecting by Type, Category and Name _etc... Hope this makes things clearer. Create a dummy DB in SSMS and generate a Database diagram - the structure will become clearer.

I think that you need to stop worrying about the .NET focus and read more on object-oriented design. You can, then, translate that to many different OO languages. Furthermore, it will help your programming more than just learning from .NET-focused studies. Once you do that, harnesses like CSLA.NET will make a lot more sense to you.

I think they may have confused the issue with the whole web service thing. As I stated, the service layer is a coordinating layer - see the whole transaction idea. "WPF has many lovers.

I would replicate the registered user information to achieve your requirment of .NET Enthusiast wrote: I want users to be able to register once, and then be able to login into any one of the websites and have their user details displayed. I can't imagine that you would be having thousands of new members signing up at each website, so I would build a webservice that would allow Website A to create a registered user in Website B and vice versa. This would allow your websites to operate independently yet provide the registered user easy access to both websites. My 2 cents. :cool:

You can use the CONTAINS-statement to search for pieces of text. It's not very usefull if you want to search for multiple parts; you'd have to check each text-column in each table for each word that the user types. Short example, we search our db for the text "Hello world". Now, what should happen if table A holds this exact string, and table B has a text-field that starts with the word "World" and ends with the words "Hello, hello!"? Worse, what happens when the user searches for the text "This is the world?" Would it find both records, or would it show those records that have the most occurences of the word "the"? These noise-words should be filtered to ensure relevant results. All in all, FTS[^] isn't just a query you implement (although that can be starting-point for building your own), and most people that are using SQL Server resort to the text-indexing service of MSSQL[^]. You could also consider Lucene[^], there are some articles here[^] on CP on integrating it into your application. Good luck :) I are troll :)
