I assume this is your scenaro

1. when a user selects a file to upload, the file name of the selected file should show on a label somewhere in your page.

If this is the case, then a couple of things to notice, the server side asp.net file upload does not have a "selected item event" in order to get that information you might need to look at javascript and jquery.

There is a jquery mulitple file upload plugin that can give you the information of the selected file.

You look at it so it will help.

Hi
This is one of code I wrote some years back, It gets the file name without extension first, then it gets the extension of the uploaded file too.
You can then work with the two strings the way that suites the application requirement


if ((FileUpload1.PostedFile != null) && (FileUpload1.PostedFile.ContentLength > 0))
{


string fn = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(FileUpload1.FileName);
string extension = Path.GetExtension(FileUpload1.FileName);

}
You should look at the "Path" class, thats where your solution is.

Cheers

Hi
There are a couple of places you can get help on the internet
If you are a beginner I will suggest you take a look at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/ff384126.aspx

If you have any programming experience then you should look at

http://msdn.com
From there you will get the links and free tools needed to get started developing .net based apps.

If you are looking to get a development job, my advice is to get started developing apps and learning what it takes to build good software.
Certification is good but it will not give the job.
Most software and technology firms employ and pay you well if you have the skills and not the certificate.

If you are around Lekki/Ajah area you can leverage our .net couching program.

You will be taught
You will study more on your own
You will be provided with tools and solution to start coding

Then we will work with our development team on real world apps to ensure that you have understood the concepts of .net Cloud, desktop and mobile development.

However alot depends on you. if want to be good you have to put in the effort to be good.
We will provide a favorable environment and the resources needed.

I have done that already is in my previous post.
It has an attachment with the same name that you used for urs.

Thanks

I have uploaded a document containing the actual code and a re-factored version.
It sure will help you out.

I will rewrite the code that you posted, I guess looking at it will help you.
Yeah you can have multiple constructors for a given class.
Yeah you can have the two of them.

Thanks

Hey
I have looked at your code and for sure I can see a couple of places where you might need to rework.
Observation:

You are making a call to property of controls in form1 that has not be instantiated hence the error that is giving to you
"Object reference is not set as an instansce of an object"

string changegirdview = Form1.dview.Text;
Form1.dview.DataSource = dsl;
These are from Form2.
Given that Form1 is not a static class you have to device a means to get reference to that form, there are a couple of ways to do this.
I will make an assumption that you want the that is added in form2 to show in form1 without creating a new form1 object.


1.To do this you have to Create a public method that you want to call from form1
2. Add a second constructor to the form2 such that expects an object of type Form.
3. Pass the form1 object to form2 when you are creating the form2 instance.


public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}



public void GetNewData(DataSet dsl)
{
//do ur binding here
//work with the dataset here
}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
label1.Text = "";
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Here you are passing this current instance into the new form2 you are creating so that form2 will have access to the public properties and methods of form1
Form2 f = new Form2(this);
f.Show();
}
}
4. Work with form1 public methods and properties from form2
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////


public partial class Form2 : Form
{
public Form2()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

//Second constructor that accepts and instance of a form., this is what you use when creating an instance of the form2 from form1
public Form2(Form f)
{
InitializeComponent();
_form1 = f;
}
Form _form1;

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Here you cast the incoming object to the type of form1, so that u can use intelliscence and design time checking
Form1 frm = (Form1)_form1;

DataSet ds= new DataSet();
//You call the method from form1 and it will reflect in the form that has the gridvew.
frm.GetNewData(ds);
this.Hide();



}
}

Hope that helps!!!!!!!!!!

Hi
I will love to help you but you have to provide a more usefull information about the error.
What is the error message?
can you post the code snippet that is causing the error?

With these anybody can help out.

Cheers.

Alot of us face this everyday. Advice from me, this might not be best practices.

If you are the originator then you have to define very well but not necessarily a complete process of what each user of the application should do.
I understand that change/new idea/Update are part of the software development therefore you have to use and be agile in your development.

This has to come from the way you write your code such that it can be easily changed or updated, the way you respond to changes and all of that. Going back to your question is better if you define the basic process start simple and get the first version out as quickly as possible and get people and friends to use it, then you can do the second version quickly using the feedback that you got and the new ideas that you have.

I believe that will be a better app that you can sell or lunch, once lunched you have to have a good feedback mechanism, believe me, you can not stop modifying a software till the day the solution will go out of market.

Thanks

Hi
Let me just share from my personal experience i guess it might help.

1. The first step is what I call the story, a kind of description of what the system is about, this mostly gotten from the person that wants the system. You get this in many ways from interviews, group study, observation etc.
Once you get the story right is important you write it down in a notepad.

2. The second question is what are the object(domain objects of the user story) There is a simple way for me, looking at the story that I have written I underline all the NOUNS,  thats where I get the domain of that project, you do elimination of the once that are repeated and with your own reasoning make out your initial objects.

3. Users of the system(you have to be careful here) I do not mean users in number, This is user scenario or roles. who and who will be using this system in terms of what they can and can not do. example in a simple office application , we can have the data entry people ( they will just enter data into the system) and we will also have administrator that will view reports and create users.
So in this system we have two basic users
1. Data Entry Users
2. Administrators.

4.  Use Case: This is the interesting part of the project and to me the most crucial.
    you ask questions what exactly will the data entry staff be adding?
    How do they add that?
    After adding what  next?
    Eg  A data entry staff will have
          1. Login
           2. Click on Add Customer button
           3. Enter Customer information( name, address, phone and email)(detailed u have to get this information)
               ( A customer can not be added twice in the system)[business logic]
           4. Click Save
         
This is a simple use case for Add Customer work-flow, you can have tens or thousands of use cases depending on what you are building.
looking at this you can pick out the following methods that you will write in the application
    Login  Functionality
    Customer CRUD functionality with business logic taken care of too.

5. You re-factor and refine your objects and will get most methods/functions from the user case.

This is a brief, you will learn more with practice and reading.
Hope this helps, had to take sometime off my coding to reply this.

Hi
I think the advice on using the language that you are very familar
while developing your services is a good one to consider.
There are tools to use for either java or .net to create a service solutions.

I have worked with webservices for some thing now and on a current project where I am developing the service on .net framework and the client devices run java based solutions, buiding the solution is one thing, performance and security are other factors to consider.

Here is a link to a quick video on how to create webservice on .net framework.

http://www.asp.net/general/videos/how-do-i-create-and-call-a-simple-web-service-in-aspnet

I hope that helps.
