Hmz, that depends on how much effort you want to put in it; Some of us have a private board where you might add messages, depending on the settings. If you go to the profile and scroll down, there could be a "Post a new blog entry"-button in red. If that's not there, you could try and find an older thread, put a short message there asking for direct email, then delete them message; most of us will get an email if someone replies to a message on the board. The mail would already be sent when you delete the message, so no permanent post on the board. That may not work for a new account, since it might be flagged as potential spam, with no email being sent until approved. The sad thing is that your effort will probably not even be appreciated, instead of taken as a learning-moment. If you can't ignore it, thread careful in your wording. If the posts you refer to are against the rules of CodeProject or makes the site look bad, you may try mailing an admin.

Well, I have the equivalent of about 20 years' teaching experience in a tremendously diverse array of settings. I could write an essay, nay a book, aimed at answering your question. Some of my experience was really painful, some of it was fun. It depends first of all on where you work: sector (the higher the better), college and country. Countries like the UK have, what I would call, damaging institutions like Ofsted and the QAA with nonsensical legislation that tends to clog things up until you can't do your job. HE escapes some of the toxic red-tape, though the QAA is apparently campaigning to change all of that. Administrators can make your job worthless, so try to find a college which really lets you get on with your job. Teaching is a very difficult job and is certainly no easy option. Maybe do a training course first and get some experience as a part-time teacher before you commit. I am self-employed, I decided long ago that I didn't want to get too entwined in red-tape by becoming an official college employee. This also gives me some control over workload, which if left to administrators escalates exponentially.

I've found the issue - thanks. A new upload today should fix it. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP

you could try setting the visible of the Prev and Next links rather than not putting them there. This was they will always be there and take up the same amount of space (even if they cannot be seen) <pre><div> <span style="visibility:hidden;">Prev link</span><span>detail link</span><span>next link</span> </div></pre> Don't vote my posts down just because you don't understand them - if you lack the superior intelligence that I possess then simply walk away

I think you can add two unique constaint in File..ClientID and Data..FileID to achieve your goal. By your data design, if you want the DataField value to be unique only per client, the infomation in [File] should also unique match one [Client] record. Client: ID Name File: ID Name Bytes ClientID <<< Data: ID DataField FileID <<<

Hi Fernando, No, that is not the setup. I have the DataContext intantiation and the call to ExecuteQuery in a separate function. More like this: public List<DataTable> callExecute() { DataClassesDataContext dc = new DataClassesDataContext(); List<DataTable> listReturn = dc.ExecuteQuery(strSQL); return listReturn; } // code that does time out ... listTemp = callExecute(); // these calls return counts with different date ranges int nCount1 = callExecute().Count(); int nCount2 = callExecute().Count(); // timeout happens during this call ... // code that does _not_ time out ... listTemp = callExecute().ToList(); System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(250); // these calls return counts with different date ranges int nCount1 = callExecute().Count(); System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(250); int nCount2 = callExecute().Count(); ... Thanks for your help.

Picture a bath. A conical bath. Film fine white sand running out of it. Now run the film backward. :cool:

I don't know what language you will use to develop but this is a very good asp.net-site with many training videos. Just have a look. Greetings Covean

Good. In my data access base classes[^] I hold a System.Data.IDbCommand, if I want the connection string I use this.cmd.Connection.ConnectionString; there's no need to store it a second time. I don't keep instantiating and throwing away connection and command instances -- that's wasteful (not that I've benchmarked it). But now I don't know what you mean by "each object can access the database independently". What objects? I have one data access class that is basically a wrapper around one Connection/Command (with specialized versions for the various databases I use). I can instantiate one for each database and I can clone it when I need an additional connection to a particular database.
