Hi Everybody, We use Sharepoint in our companies Intranet. I'm trying to build a business dashboard in sharepoint which would fetch information by consuming a web service. Does anyone have any experience with this and can point me in the right direction. I've worked with .NET but my knowledge of Sharepoint is zilch, nada, null. Thanks in advance.

;P Missed that one. Thanks for the help SunRays.

Hi guys, I have an RTF file on which I do string substitution for mass printing letters. I'd like to convert the output RTF to PDF? Currently I use a dirty trick of printing the RTF to a PDF printer but this seems like a slightly messy option. Is there any 'free' library that I could use to generate a PDF from my RTF? I've tried to Google it but all i could find was a bunch of paid libraries. An small example would be helpful too. Thanks in advance. :)

Hi guys, I'm developing a small site for someone who made the mistake of hosting with GoDaddy. I am unable to make any outbound connections for WebRequest and stuff from Godaddy. String strResult; WebResponse objResponse; WebRequest objRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com"); objRequest.Proxy = new WebProxy("https://64.202.165.130:3128"); //objRequest.Proxy = new WebProxy("https://64.202.165.130:3128"); //objRequest.Proxy = new WebProxy("http://wc-v01.inet.mesa1.gdg:3128"); //objRequest.Proxy = new WebProxy("https://wc-v01.inet.mesa1.gdg:3128"); objResponse = objRequest.GetResponse(); // the using keyword will automatically dispose the object // once complete using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(objResponse.GetResponseStream())) { strResult = sr.ReadToEnd(); // Close and clean up the StreamReader sr.Close(); } Response.Write(strResult); I used that code to test f I could make outbound connections. On my IIS it worked fine but when I uploaded it gave "Could not connect kind of error". I did comment out all the Proxy code when I ran it on my IIS. GoDaddy has a Proxy server. I've tried all combinations to make it work but it doesn't. GoDaddy claims its a coding error. Is there a simpler code to test whether I ca n make outbound connections froma particular server or something.

hey guys, i have quite a few SQL databases on my PC. I want to script all the databases into a text file. The script should contain both the data and the structure of the databases. How can i do this? I want to execute this process from a batch file. Is there a tool or something that i could use? I've been hunting for something like this for a long time but I haven't found anything. In MySQL tis is a relatively simple process which can be accomplished by using the mysqldump utility.

I'm executing SQL Server stored procedures from C# and I'm having problem figuring out a few things. My stored procedure have become pretty complex and I need to check whether the SP executed successfully or not. What should I do? Should i use a RAISEERROR in the SP, should i use RETURN or should i use SELECT? Once i find out in my C# code that an error has occurred, i want to display the appropriate message to the user. How do I do this? Would i have to enclose the C# code to execute the SP in a try-catch block? Thanks in advance guys!
