Hi,

Yesterday I received the Asus Eee Series Netbook from Microsoft for my works and bug found in Windows 7 Beta testing. I must say its an amazing feeling to have your first netbook in your hand.

The netbook received is Eee PC Windows XP edition 900 Series.

Till now I am working on finding out how the netbook can be connected to the my desktop so that I can do more with netbook, Install some necessary software (Required for internet connection) etc. If some has some idea do share with me....

But Its a great pleasure to have you own portable netbook.I cannot express My happiness more.....

Search on Last Modified By field in Sharepoint not working by default
Search on Last Modified By field in Sharepoint not working by default
Posted on 4/23/2009 @ 8:44 AM in #SharePoint | 2 comments

Hi,

 

Of late I have been working in Sharepoint project which works extensively on searching of data. We have implemented our own custom search page and use Sharepoint object model for searching the data.

 

Yesterday I found a unique bug in Sharepoint. While search for data based on different specific columns (mapped in Metadata property mapping), the search never fetched result when I made a search on the Last modified by field. I had updated all of the documents multiple times and also crawled the records properly after updating the data. But this did not solved the problem.

Using Page.ParseControl to add new control from Control Tag
Adding a new control with the help of Page.ParseControl method
Posted on 4/10/2009 @ 3:04 AM in #ASP.NET 2.X | 0 comments

Hi,

 

Sometimes we might have a requirement where by we need to parse the tags and create some controls with that in asp.net.  Think of a situation where you do not what type of control will be create. You need to pass the control from an xml file// or database. There can be many properties to the control, which will be passed. Passing these properties individually can be difficult, because you do not the kind of control itself.

 

In this kind of situation if we can pass the full formatted control tag as a string which will be parsed and updated then it can be great as we can easily apply all the property we want to apply.

C Sharp goto statement for breaking the nested loop
goto keyword in C Sharp and its use to break nested loop
Posted on 4/5/2009 @ 10:35 AM in #ASP.NET 2.X | 0 comments
Hi,

 

Two days back, while discussing with a friend came a small interesting (programming) situation where he wanted to stop (break) a loop which was inside another loop.

 

You can think of the situation as he was first looping through all the rows in a grid view and then in the entire column in the grid view. Now he was trying to look into the text of each cell, and if the text matched a given value, he needed to break from both the loop and execute the statement after the loop.

 

His first idea was to use a flag which will be checked in the outer loop every time to see if the value has been found in the inner loop. The code would be something like below.
