Thanks, Richard. Saying truth, I've already understand where I made a mistake. I anyway want ExecuteScalar to return db error, so I simply added the test is byte for result before casting: Object sqlResult = ExecuteScalar(sql); if (!(sqlResult is byte)) { return sqlResult.ToString(); } This is the internal module, and WHERE clause is generated programmatically, so I don't see the ability to SQL Injection. Thanks once more. Regards, Gennady My English is permanently under construction. Be patient !!

Hi ! Thanks for your response and sorry for delay - I had no access to the internet. Yes, this is one of methodes that I thought about. Another is - place the short web.config to the root of web site. I'm not sure that any one of these methodes is right, so I wanted to get the "authoritive" answer. I'm new in this field, so when my first HttpModule will fail to work, I'd like to exclude the registration mistakes. At least. Regards, Gennady My English is permanently under construction. Be patient !!

Hi ! Finally the problem solved. Thanks to Ben Peterson and his A .NET assembly viewer[^] !! Among Referenced Assemblies I've found the ADODB assembly, that is absent on the third machine. Now all works as expected. Thanks to everyone who tried to help me. Regards, Gennady My English is permanently under construction. Be patient !!

Hi, Dominic ! Thanks. We solved the problem with the help of MS support. Using the debugdiag tool DebugDiag[^] we've found that one of asp pages loaded into the hidden frame (for debug purposes) filled out all available worker threads, executing the same one-time function more and more. This happened, as far as I could understand, after updating the SQL client on the server. Didn't understand the whole story yet. Regards, Gennady My English is permanently under construction. Be patient !!

John Simmons / outlaw programmer wrote: Wrong. We're not really programmers anymore If so - what's wrong in my words?. Programming is the art, but we're now not programmers. Almost agree. But ... I'm less pessimistic, although I also feel nostalgia about the times when Germain's "IBM/360" was our Bible. There is need in programmers, programming yet exists, and this site is acually the proof. Somebody have to create the "Lego" and it's framework. But I can also understand you. When you see children that construct from "Lego" something that they call "program" and therefore call themselves "programmers" - this may get mad anybody :zzz: . Regards, Gennady

As usual, sending question I continued to think about it. And suddenly I've understand what was my mistake. I don't need to include both script referencies - only one to release version. ScriptManager is smart enough to add "debug" to the name and key, if in debug mode. Sorry. Regards, Gennady

kubben wrote: these tags are parsed later and take more time Thanks, Ben ! This is exactly what I'd like to understand - when and where. But think, even the placeholder will not be a good alternative. More I think about it - more I incline to the idea, that the best decision in my case would be to write the kind of page generator, that will create "static" aspx pages (about 100) on the base of page template and type definitions from the DB. This has to provide the performance benefit, yet supporting the desired level of flexibility and managability. I hope ... Thanks. Regards, Gennady

Actually, I've found answers on my questions - I can use Generic Service resource type and there is no need to use Cluster APIs in my case. But because I'm absolutely newbie in this area, anyway I'll be very thankful for your comments. Regards, Gennady

Hi! Thank you. I've tried and really have found much more relevant things. Regards, Gennady

Try searching MSDN for DumpCOFFLibFile. It's inside an article written by Matt Pietrek and should at least give you a starting point.

Gennady, check this out Requirements of MCSD .NET They will enter beta stage on April/May , the C++ exam is not on the certification :mad: , only C#(not bad) and VB.NET X| Cheers, Joao Vaz

Thanks, Michael! AddPrinterDriver is exactly what I looked for. Cannot understand, how I missed it !? Thanks once more. Regards, Gennady

Yeah, Find/Load/LockResource works for me with app-defined resource format. I don't think you'll have much trouble with message tables. Cheers, Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com

Thanks ! EnumResourceNames is exactly what I looked for. Don't know why I couldn't find it myself - may be search expression was wrong. Thank you once more. Regards, Gennady

Well, if you work in C++, you can use the C++ forum... I like the idea about a API forum though :) - Anders Money talks, but all mine ever says is "Goodbye!"
