Hello, I am working with Visual Studio 2010 and a Windows Form application, because I want to include a SQL Databse .mdf file as resource for that application in order to keep the data inside the application, I Try to include a new element and I choose a database linked to Service (*.mdf datafile) but I allways receive an error message in which it says that for that action is needed to install first SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express and it give an Internet address for downloading. The situation is that SQL Server 2008 Express is just installed, and I can create the same named database from SQL Server Management Studio o Visual Studio Server Explorer without any problem, so why it's not posible to aggregate as new element in the Solution Explorer.

The only problem is that my Master page also paint an lower icon bar for all the pages, so the content page comes in the middle and depending of it´s size it makes the Master change it's appearance, but I´ll check about Flow Layout

Because the content pages can have different size so I am having problems of positioning the content pages inside the Master, and the Master Elements don`t keep an strict position, Because it must be a normal problem I think that it shall have a normal solution, but I don´t know it, so could you please tell me if is there any rule or way of keeping the Master elements unchanged independently of which content page is located in. Best Regards

Hello everyone, I am creating a page with various languages using ASP_Local_resources files, and it works correctly the user is able of choosing the language, but my problem is that in the language change it needs refresh all the screen not only located controls, and the page contains some graphics which make the language change a not very nice repainting, so I am thinking about Ajax in order to change only the afected controls, but I don´t know how to mixture the resources utilization and Ajax, could anybody give me a solution or any link in relation with. Best Regards

I don`t understand your meaning for "a simple hack" but my problem is that InitializeCulture executes before than Button_click so the first click on the button first execute the InitializeCulture before the culture has changed (Session["Culture"]) and the second click just really change the page, but how to do it in only one click.

I am working with a page which needs to change it's language by user decission, so I created the Local Resources and I want link the language to an imageButton with the country flag, and I change the Culture data inside the button click event and overrides the InitializeCulture Method, and it works, but because InitilizeCulture executes before than the click event it needs two clicks for getting the page change, my InitializeCulture method contains the following sentences: protected override void InitializeCulture() { if (Session["Cultura"] != null) { Cultura = (string)Session["Cultura"]; UICulture = Cultura; if (Cultura == "es") Culture = "es-ES"; Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(Cultura); } base.InitializeCulture(); } What I need to introduce in order to avoid the double click, because the execution order normally is InitializeCulture - Page_Load - Button_click, and if I directly call the InitializeCulture from the Button_Click it doesn't refresh th screen. Best Regards

Finally I found the problem, I was using local resources for a page and I had Resource files for various languages, but not a resource file by default for the page, so I had Default.aspx.en-US.resx but not Default.aspx.resx, in the moment in which I create such file it started to work. Regards to everyone

Before I post my message I saw that article and I have done all the steps enclosed in it, but in my application it doesn`t work

I am tryng to work with a page which shows different languages, so I follow the steps: 1) Create a Web Form 2) Add a Label to the Form and add a value for the Text Property 3) Go to Design mode and in the Tools Menu click on Generate Local Resource. 4) Go to APP_localresources directory and rename the resx file adding the en-US language reference (webpage.aspx.en-US.resx). 5) Create a resource file for other language (webpage.aspx.es-MX.resx). 6) endly I tried some ways to get the page in different languages - change the default language in IE to es-MX - override the initialize method and change the UICulture to es-MX But After two days tryng to see the werform in Spanish-Mexican I am not able of getting I only se the label text in it`s original USA text. Could you please tell me where is my mistake because I don't find any article which does some different of what I do but for me it doesn`t work. Best Regards

My question has reference to that I have just done 3 Intranet projects, so I know how Web Parts work and how to work with them, but I never has seen other projects using Web Parts in Internet in order to get more utilizatión possibilities, so I simply try to see other Webs using Web Parts. I don´t think that it sounds so strange, at least for me.

Could you please give me any link to a real web page which currently uses Wep Parts, I know the technology but I would like to see it working in the practice. Best Regarsrd
