Thanks. I wasn't going to create a master table for code values but in the end that seems best. That way I can keep the program logic smaller and it helps document the whole code system too.

Thanks for the reply to this one. I went with the other solution posted, but this helped me understand the binding mechanism a lot better. Up until now we've done everything programmatically here. Thanks.

I am just getting started with DataGrids in .NET 2.0 and am trying to figure out how to do the following: I have a DataSource returning columns from a table. One of the fields contains a code. For example, the field is 1 character in size and contains 'A', 'E', 'L', or 'U'. These stand for "Active", "Expired", "Locked", and "Unknown", respectively. How do I get my datagrid to show the word instead of the code letter? I don't need a DropDownList in the DataGrid column since it isn't editable. I suppose I could use one if it's readonly, but that seems like overkill since all I need is the text. Thanks.

I have requested one, but the main thing in the way is corporate politics. Senior and middle management are given offices. Everyone else goes without. Other than that, they would have to build more office space. And that's doable. They are already building more offices for new management positions.

I want an office with a door. I am tired of the cubicle life. I need the reduced interruptions that an office provides. I would also appreciate the respect that it brings.

Is the Lounge the only forum with an RSS feed? If not, I'd like to know what the URLs for other forum feeds are. And if so, I'd like to see RSS feeds for other boards... at least the more popular ones. -- updated Okay, I found the ones for Subtle Bugs and Coding Horrors. However, the link for the Coding Horrors RSS feed is invalid. Looks like the name never got changed from Hall of Shame. Looks like there may be feeds out there, but you don't see the RSS link in the title when you navigate to a forum via the Message Boards menu. --

Without fail I will be sitting here at work wondering if it's time to go home yet only to look up at the clock and see 4:04. :laugh: Seriously. I think my peripheral vision is playing tricks on me. :-D

If you can't find the proper board for posting questions like this, I highly recommend putting your data into an Excel spreadsheet. That shouldn't baffle you.

Interesting counter-questions, but ultimately the whole idea is rather moot. Hackers aren't going to come through the "advertiser" door because once the hacker is aware of Norton's default list of publicly available terms they won't use those terms anymore. It's a losing battle on their part. Norton could have done a lot more to reasonably determine that my link was not something it should ignore. First, the link was a relative link to a resource on the same site as the page itself. If that isn't a safe assumption then nothing is safe to assume. Any web server can retrieve, funnel, or redirect content internally and forward it to the client. As for visual indication... anything would be great. Norton is no stranger to barraging it's users with popups, flashing icons, or toolbar status messages. They could put a yellow block in place of the replaced content. They could pop open a little tip bar like everything seems to be doing these days. My initial venting has run its course and I'm better for having gotten it out of my system. But I have to look at Norton and scratch my head. What do they accomplish? The people they are trying to stop can easily rename, redirect, and otherwise hide their spamming, bannering intentions. It's the innocent bystanders (page viewers and web developers) that suffer from being inconvenienced.

Granted, but I hope after having been smacked upside the head that person, in turn, smacks someone else in the head and that it travels up the management chain. Somewhere along the way the person responsible will get his due. ;)

...please, please smack them upside the head for me. We finally figured out a random problem we have been having with people visiting our website. For no easily explainable reason certain menu links where just missing. Their page would otherwise render normally. The links were just static anchor tags. No fancy javascript. They weren't dynamically created at runtime. Turns out the people who wrote Norton are EVIL! One menu item that was consistently missing when the problem arose was a link named "My Company" which directed the user to "/Advertiser/default.aspx". Pretty simple, no? The problem is that Norton considers this to be a banner that should be blocked. Why? Because the folder name is "Advertiser". Well, excuse us Norton! The people using the system are advertisers. They advertise in our printed magazines. So, please, smack 'em hard. Three times! Once, because they are blocking words en-masse that may be entirely legitimate. Twice, because they give no visual indication that anything on the page has been altered by Norton. Thrice, because this feature is part of their "Spam Blocker" and what they are blocking ISN'T SPAM! :mad::mad::mad: You probably want to check the web for a list of things these creeps are blocking by default. You can be affected if you do something as simple as putting "?adv=" in a URL.

I really didn't like it. I mean... I really, really, really didn't like it. I won't put any spoilers up here but I can drop some hints why. 1. Shakey camera work was too shakey 2. Emo 3. Whining 4. Crying 5. Dancing 6. Singing 7. Boring 8. Loose ends I'll stop there. I do consider myself pretty lucky though. I hate to leave a movie early since I paid money to get in. But after the fifth time of asking myself if it would be best to just leave it was almost over. And it's a good thing I didn't leave. With about 5 minutes left to go the film got stuck and melted to the lens. Everyone in the theater got their money back. WOOT!
