I'm working with a very old-school application (written in MicroFocus Object
COBOL) that supports user extension functions.  Before the app writes a

function is configured.  If one is, it loads the DLL whose ...

Alas, I surrender...
In a file from a COBOL dump, which is in ASCII, one of the fields is defined

The EULA for the SP1 installation appears to prohibit myself (as an ISV)
from shipping SP1 on my own product's installation media. We currently
distribute the .NET Framework 1.1 redistributable package on a CD with our

   Is there a way to get the .NET Web Service/ web service proxy to

I am writing an application that must perform an ICMP Ping ultimately from C#
but I don't mind if I need to write some C++ to handle the winsock interace.

I have an executable I have built.  On some computers it runs without
a problem.  On others it will give a security exception.  If I run the
.NET Configuration wizard and move the level from no trust to the
first level up, it will then run the program.

I'm facing some problem with the policy assembly. When I link the
configuration file and create the policy assembly ( that's what I have seen
in all the example codes..) and add to the GAC, it is working fine -
provided, I keep the config file in the same location from where I had ...

I'm not sure which group to post this in, so forgive me if I post to a few,
hoping that someone can point me in the right direction.
In a .NET project (probably ASP.NET but could also be rich client), I want
to save some XML data to a database (sql-server but could also be Oracle).

I modified the machine.config file to lengthen the
system.web->processModel->responseDeadlockInterval to 15 minutes from 3.
 I'm wondering if the changes made to machine.config go into effect
immediately, or will I have to restart IIS?

SP1 doesn't install on my machine.  It complains about a hotfix being
installed, but gives no clue which one.
I saw an earlier post about it possibly being the SDK documentation update
being at fault.  Seems wierd that documentation can do this, but if true,

we have a .net project, edit in VB.Net and ASP.Net;

If AssemblyInfo.cs has 1.0.* as the version, then the version numbers are
generated automatically by the compiler, e.g. 1.0.234.8756.
Is there a publicly available method that generates those numbers? Or is
there an algorithm for generating them?

I am in dire need of help!
My problem is a follows:

I'm attempting to create a console app similar to Microsoft's MMC that will
allow us to create a single user interface, and any apps we create will be
accessible as snap-in dlls. I've been able to create the user interface, and
some sample dlls as apps and everything seems to ...
