In VB.net I do not believe it's possible (at least to do easily). However, if you are working in something such as WPF or possibly Silverlight it is very doable.

Generally when using masterpages you will want to add a content place holder, and then within there you can add other controls (on either the masterpage or a webpage with the reference to your masterpage). If nothing else shows up in your toolbox other than the content place holder then …

I usually have something the users can interact with (comboboxes, textboxes, etc) and then you can add on to the query based on the user's selected/inputted items. So for example if you had two textboxes, one for minimum ordered quantity, one for address and the user input min order qty …

You could try using session variables. In larger applications you need to be careful with them, but storing 180 questions plus the color should be fine. Just do something like session("QuestionOne") = -TheirQuestionOneAnswer-

Programming has made my logic skills increase drastically. Card games such as Magic: the Gathering have become MUCH easier to think about complex lines of interaction and calculating probabilities of opponents having cards, etc. Sadly programming also makes it difficult to stay in shape :(

Also keep in mind that in most instances the between operator selects entries between your two dates AS WELL AS the two dates. So if you were doing between Jan 1st/ 2011 and September 12/2011 both Jan 1st and Sept 12 will be included.

I use IE when I need to ensure compatability on certain sites. Firefox for general browsing. Chrome for googling things because it seems to be the fastest (but I despise it's favorites/bookmarking).

1)Not sure, I haven't been into programming that long :) 2)Yes, visual studio makes .aspx pages. 3)You are right on the money. The HTML is what users see, and creates controls such as textboxes, gridviews, and buttons on the page. ASP then allows you to program in VB.net or c# …

Keep in mind that clearing viruses/spyware off your computer will not help with freeing your email. I would recommend reformatting your hard drive if possible, and if not ensuring your computer is free of viruses, spyware, and malware. After you can assure that (or access a seperate computer), change the …

Hi AspiringCoder, I'd be happy to answer your questions. 1)About 2 years 2)I like being able to work with the same programming language everyday (Visual Basic.net), but work on different projects, and different parts of similar projects. It is very rewarding when something stumps you, but you finally figure it …

Not sure if you ever got this working, but I've used this progress bar in the past and it works very well too! [url]http://mattberseth.com/blog/2008/05/aspnet_ajax_progress_bar_contr.html[/url]

For basics I'd recommend anything made by Rhox publishing. They are usually very clear, concise, and informative.

In order to completely erase it from memory: Session.remove("YourSessionName"). In order to clear its data if it's a basic string: session("YourSessionName") = ""

I agree with BitBlt's comments, furthermore don't be surprised if you are there a week and haven't contributed too much. I was in training for about a month before I started doing actual work, although this may not be typical. Don't worry too much about anything, people know that it's …

I wouldn't start looking until you are between 2 months - finishing your Master's. From my experience most managers hire for specific projects, and then you stay or go based upon performance/how much they like your work on that project. So looking say 5 months ahead is pointless unless you …

I wish I could get up early enough to gym and feel motivated enough to actually do work :( Definitely an immediately after work guy here!

As jbisono aluded to you need to find what your user's monitor [B]Resolution[/B] is: that is what determines the amount of screen space they will have when viewing your site or anything else on their computers. So check what their resolution is and design your site around that, obviously if …

For what it's worth: If you needed to change the contents of the combobox in response to an event (such as the user making a selection in another combobox). You should use update panels (or javascript...). Such (html) code would look like: [CODE] <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"> </asp:ScriptManager> <asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server"> …

In order to do this I typically store the file on the server and store the file path in the database. At the top of your vb you will need: [CODE] Imports system.io [/CODE] Then in your method (upload or whatever) you will want to use file.create and file.remove, as …

Set the autopostback property of the control = to false.

I don't know if you got it solved yet taxmybrain, but if you are following Mitja's suggestion you would also need a " before Select event Thus making it: [CODE] SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = "SELECT event, athname, D_ate, TIME1 FROM TableName WHERE event='" & dist & "' AND athname = '" & …

A brief description of masterpages: Masterpages serve as a template to build upon when creating new pages in asp.net. An easy way to visualize it is to look at the navigation at the top of this site: there is hardware & software, software development, etc. If you were the developer …

Do you have a way of detecting how much data was sent and how much was received?

Do you have any database experience? You will probably want to store the questions/answers in a database, as well as user information if you want individuals to have their own log ins. Design wise the site wouldn't be too bad to mimic, just doing the general design would take some …

An alternative without modifying the sql command would be to change how you run the query: Change: Dreader = consulta.ExecuteReader(); To: Dreader = consulta.ExecuteScalar(); Execute scalar grabs only the first row, even if there are multiple results.

Adrian - you cannot have events fire when the user clicks a control (such as a textbox) using vb.net. You would need to use javascript's OnClick event. [CODE] document.getElementById(textboxX).onfocus { Do stuff in here! } [/CODE] The reason for this is because vb.net only "fires" when the webpage communicates directly …

I have never used the Gmap control, but vb.net generally dislikes putting inserting controls directly onto the page. Try inserting the gmap into something such as a panel, or an existing control within the page that can "house" the gmap.
