This is a simple function to generate a random ID of letters and numbers however long you want. All you do is pass it how many parts you want and then how many pieces(chars/numbers) per part you want.

I hope you enjoy

This function creates relatively secure random passwords. It's by no means ideal, but it should work in most non-critical situations. The nice thing is the generator attempts to create passwords that people can pronounce and chooses letters that won't be mistaken for others (such as the numeral "1", an upper-case "i" and a lower-case "L"). To keep the code short much of this functionality is very rudimentary, but it's better than nothing.

First Example of reading an excel file. Just reading the file and loop throught 10 rows.

I will send the second example soon !!!

Second example of reading an excel file. Reading with a SELECT syntax.

Below is a bit of code which sets up drag and drop in a treeview. This is handy for if you have a list of items that can be sorted by the user.

Here is a bit of code to demonstrate how to do this. First create a new Windows executable project. Drop a TreeView component on the form, and let's name it 'myTree' for this demonstration. Go ahead and populate it with some dummy data; enough data to see the dragging and dropping in action. You will need a variable global to the form's scope.

private TreeNode sourceNode;

This is used to track the item we are dragging in our TreeView. Then define the event handlers listed below.

The easiest way to give columns in a DataGrid the look you want is to use a DataGridTableStyle and to add a GridColumnStyle for each column in the grid.

This could be used for any type of simple hash checking. It could also be used to store a "password" that had to be verified. This code is completely managed.

This routine will get an image stored in a SQL database (IBM Informix shown here) as a BLOB and return it to the screen.

To place this on an HTML page simply add

I have an MD5 hashed version as well, but can't share that...(So you can have encrypted id's passed)

Have fun,

Have you ever tried to use Color.Blue.ToString and gotten undesired results?
Or have you ever tried to save a color to an INI and not be able to reproduce it the next time around?

The methods below will help you in your conquest of converting the Color structure to HTML (#FF0000) and back to a Color structure again.
