    OK, so this isn't exactly a .net programming entry, but I couldn't resist. So I added a little sports section here on my blog. Last year Austin Collie (receiver at BYU) made a huge catch that basically gave BYU the victory over UTAH. All of us UTAH fans were in utter disbelief when it hap... [More]

    When you add a reference to a project in Visual Studio there are several tabs to allow you to "quickly" pick an assembly to reference. The .net tab is the first and, at first glance, appears to show all assemblies registered in the Global Assmbly Cache (GAC). It is, however, not associat... [More]

    I've had this issue a couple of times with MS Word 2007. Word won't accept any mouse inputs, have to do every thing with the keyboard. Also, when you close Word, it crashes and tries to re-start unless you cancel out of it. As I started to research this, I came across some articles that tell... [More]

    I have on occasion needed to schedule a process to run on a nightly basis, but I did not have access to the server where I could schedule a windows service. So I had to turn to using a timer object in ASP.NET to schedule the process for me. I used the application_start method (in the global.asax)... [More]

    Often when you need to call a function to save a file to disk or to a database you are required to pass a .NET stream to the function but all you have is a byte array. In pre-.NET days you had to move streams bit by bit by using byte arrays. You had to manage the whole process. Fortunately that is n... [More]

    OK, it seems like every time I teach a Reporting Services class someone asks me how to migrate from crystal to Sql Server Reporting Services. Since I don't regularly run into this issue I am always having to look up resources, so I think it's time to just post some resources to my blog.... [More]

    I've had to go through installing reporting services on IIS7 a couple of times now (on Vista machines for development environments - but the same rules apply for IIS7 on Windows Server 2008). When running the install for SQL Server 2005 the option to install Reporting Services was not availabl... [More]

    At first glance it appears that adding a control to a form dynamically is quite simple. In fact it is. It's when you need to be able to persist that control on multiple post-backs where you start running into problems. This article describes how the ASP.NET engine handles VIEWSTATE and POSTBACKS and how that affects dynamically added controls. [More]
