hi all, i use IIS 6.0, and when i run my asp page on my browser, sometimes it prompt me for password(when i go to that page from IE, the dialog pop out prompt for username and password), this is very irritating, i just want to browse to test my asp page without have to login to that page, i think this should be the security setting in win 2003, but i'm not sure how to disable this setting.

hi, i found that using push button style in ButtonColumn didn't call any event handler (ItemCommand or DeleteCommand) when i click on it. When i change to hyperlink style, it works, but i want a push button style, anyone can help? Thanks

i get the answer, i was wrong:)

i found that there is no reason why we should use username and password parameter in DirectoryEntry constructor, but why do they provide it? since it will always use the current windows account which run the program to authenticate against active directory, so that whatever username and password i specify in DirectoryEntry constructor is useless. Am i right? your info is highly appreciated. Thanks

hi, is it possible to create a program or script that will display help message when user click ctrl+alt+del, for example when they try to logon to windows..and the pc inform them about their initial password. user is new and computers will be in a domain. Thanks

it's using administrator account, and one more, do you know how to do operation delete object, move object starting by authenticate and authorize the user first.. for example we use a username and password to do such an operation, so that whether such operation can be completed or not depends on the permissions given to given username. I found that the permissions is applied according to windows account that is currently logged on and using the program. What i want is the program itself will have its authentication & authorization independent of what account is actually used to logged on to windows. Thanks

how do we get our column width auto adjusted to fit the length of the column header text when it's displayed in dataGrid. Thanks:-D

Thanks Dave, found it, i did it inside the initialize component(using designer) and indeed the designer define the table style before adding column. i replace the order, add column first, then it's fine. Thanks:)

i get null reference exception in this line this.dataGrid1.TableStyles["Students"].GridColumnStyles["Password"].Width = 0; how?

Thanks David, i close the Visual Studio and reopen, everything's just fine then, sounds weird though.. Thanks But i have another question, i wanna apply column style to one of the columns in my table, i wanna hide one column but setting its width to zero, i have five datacolumn object, but i only have one gridcolumnstyle with mapping name set to one of the column name i wanna hide. but the style doesn't apply, the column is not hidden. how am i goin to hide it?
