When building web sites in ASP.NET 2.0 that use the membership features you're inevitably going to use the Profile to store some custom properties (you know the stuff; Address, email, Theme, etc). You're probably also going to have an 'update your settings' Read More...

Since I posteded a reference to a forum post I've done more investigating, and feel this is worth mentioning. The ASP.NET 2.0 site map framework uses, by default, and XML file to define the menu structure, as a set of XML nodes. Each of these can have Read More...

The SiteMap architecture of ASP.NET 2.0 allows roles to be defined for each menu item, thus restricting their view to only users who are in that role. This requires the securityTrimming attribute to be added to the siteMapProvider, but I'd never been Read More...

I've been digging into CSS menus for a while, and when I received the first previews of ASP.NET 2.0 I wrote a really simple CSS menu. Since I'm doing a talk at ASP Connections on Navigation in ASP.NET 2.0. I'm building a Database SiteMap Provider and Read More...

Spooky. Bob is talking about UDTs in SQL Server Management Console (SSMS - I've hijacked his acronym). I've had the very same problem, and couldn't work out why the SSMS couldn't see the UDT, but that using ToString() explicitly worked. I had to mail Read More...

I'm gradually getting used to the new help system, still have my preferences which aren't catered for, but I'll get over them. But one thing I simply cannot get over is again with the search. You enter a search and watch the results display. You click Read More...

Two books worth mentioning. A First Look at SQL Server 2005 for Developers is damn fine. A ton of excellent material on the new version of SQL Server (codename "Yukon"). I saw this in early draft and found it invaluable for some of the stuff I'm doing. Read More...

So, working with Yukon at the moment and wasn't having a very good week. Finally got some code working , but some of my conversions weren't giving the right values. This is GIS stuff, so I'm dealing with Latitude & Longitude, converting to decimal Read More...

Is it just me or does anyone else not like the new search features in the help system in Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005? What don't I like: Paging. Breaking down the search results into pages means I can't scan the entire resultset. Yes you can Read More...

Ah, life with beta products is fun. Just installed the May build onto my laptop and it finished really quickly, probably because it failed. The error displayed is exceptionally helpful. Not. Share this post: email it! | bookmark it! | digg it! | reddit! Read More...

Code in books has always been a dilema; what language should we use? For books targetted at a aspecific language it's no problem, but what of books aimed at a technology, such as ASP.NET books. The general consensus is that C# programmers can generally Read More...

Here's something that might be useful if you're starting to look at ASP.NET 2.0. Master pages allow you to centralise the site design, Themes allow users to customise (to a degree) UI and the personalization Profile allows easy configuration and access Read More...

OK, so a first test of Robert Mclaws' Visual Blogger 2004, which allows cross-posting. Still in beta, but more features than my utility, which to be honest only took 20 minutes or so to write. Nice to have a decent tool to cross-post with. Share this Read More...

Sorry, just had to post this exception I've just received. I've always thought exceptions were for things that didn't complete sucessfully. Share this post: email it! | bookmark it! | digg it! | reddit! | kick it! | live it! Read More...

So here's an interesting point. When we have a problem when using beta code do we just naturally assume it's a problem with the beta? I had some questions to ask the team so Alex asked me to report a bug with the BulletedList control, where the BulletStyle Read More...
