IsDate equivalent in C#

We need not load the entire Microsoft.VisualBasic.Information.IsDate() for this function alone...

We can use the following the basepage

public static bool IsDate(object Expression)
{
string strDate = Expression.ToString();
try
{
DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse(strDate);
if (dt != DateTime.MinValue && dt != DateTime.MaxValue)
return true;
return false;
}
catch
{
return false;
}
}

MaskedEditExtender + Mask for MMM d, yyyy format

Load Test Web Applications Using Visual Studio Team System

Microsoft ACT requires VS.NET 2003 to be installed. For ASP.NET 2.0 applications, you can use VS.NET 2005 Team Suite for Load Test

Request Format is unrecognized

Enable

add name="Documentation"

in Web.Config

Limiting the Web Services Protocols

Open Web.Config

webServices
protocols
remove name="HttpPost"
remove name="HttpGet"
remove name="Documentation"
add name="HttpSoap"
/protocols
/webServices>

If you set web.config like this, it will allow only Soap protocol to access the web services. Through normal Internet Explorer, you cannot pass any parameters to the web services. Better security for production web services..

Disable WSDL File Generation for Web Services

Open Web.config

web services
protocols
remove name="Documentation"

This will disable WSDL File generation by WSDL.exe
