This community discussion group has tought me a lot over the years and
boosted my employment opportunities.

But recently I was slammed with a requirement to get my databases (Access
2000 linked to SQL db's) moved to .NET using Visual Studio.

For whatever reason I never a reply when I post anything to
"microsoft.public.vsnet".. I do mean never, I have posted many questions
over the past few months, nothing difficult...

Am I posting to the wrong place???
Here is an example of my last question:
Please direct me.......
///////////////
This is a simple 101-type question.
The code below shows a text box, button, and a gridview.

Could someone please help me change the code so the user can enter a number
in TextBox1, click Button1 and the information appear in the GridView1.

Thanks

I not sure about that newsgroup, but this newsgroup has nothing to do with
..net, so, this is the wrong newsgroup, and the answers your receive here are
by volunteers, and certainly the people here are not paid my Microsoft.

the only kinds of answers you going to get here are questions about
ms-access.....

When you browse these other newsgroups, are they active...are OTHER peoples
questions being answered?

not all of those newsgroups are in use, or active.

I assuming you done some browsing in those newsgroup to see previous
questions and answers (it is consider bad on your part to not search, or
look for questions similar to yours that bee answered already). If you don't
do some checking to see if your into he right place, then you actions are
akin to walking into a room, shouting out a question, but failing to look if
anyone is present in those rooms...

spend some time lurking, and reading existing answers. You MUST at least
check if other people are posting, and using the particular newsgroup. While
Microsoft hosts the servers, it is strictly up to us the community and
volunteer to frequent those newsgroups. Sometimes a new group is started,
and it doe snot take off (people don't come to answer questions, because
there are not questions, and people don't come to ask questions, because no
answers are being given!!! So, it much like a chicken and egg problem. How
one gets a newsgroup to become active is a real mystery to me...

So, if there is not traffic in the newsgroup you ask a question, then you
not get answers (that is why I am suggesting you spend some time browsing
the newsgroup to see what kind of answers people are receiving).

Remember, this is not a paid system, but a volunteer system, and we not
Microsoft employees here. Once in awhile a few employees do visit here and
answer questions, but for the most part, this is Joe public volunteer
system........

So, regardless, you asking question about .net, and this just plain simply
the wrong newsgroup...

spend some time broworign thsoe other newsgroups, and pick the one that is
most on topic, and also has good traffic.

Good advise.
I think I have been yelling in empty rooms!!!

Only a few of the "microsoft.public.vstudio......" groups have had more
than 1-2 posts in the past few days...

I have been reading and web searching for months, learning a little as I go,
but would you have any knowlege of an active site geared toward Visual Studio
& .NET Web development. Even if there is a membership fee, my job depends on
me developing some web pages to access SQL data.

Thanks




I realise this group is not .NET, but it's active, you replyed!!
