Regular expressions in C#

Regular expressions are addictive. Playing with these compressed but powerful patterns is better than solving a Sudoku.

If you are wondering what this is all about because, obviously, regular expressions are just the use of “*?”, then read on because the truth is a lot more subtle and the result is a lot more powerful than you might suspect. Equally, regular expressions are something that you will find in more than just C#, they are useful in JavaScript, Perl, Java, Ruby and even in applications such as word processors.

Find out Free disk space using SQL query

This code demonstrates use of master.sys.xp_fixeddrives. This returns all the drives available in the server and its free space in MB

Exec master.sys.xp_fixeddrives



RESULT

Drive MB Free
***** *******
C 10002
D 20002
F 57481

This will be very useful before large data load operation. We can check the disk space before starting the any large data load processes

How to Convert Image to Binary String?

Here you will learn How Convert Image to Binary String using of C# and the .NET Framework.

Basically, the program "reads" the image pixel by pixel, and where there is a pixel that is something else than white it will Append 1, else 0 in the string.

private string ConvertoToString(string imagePath)
{
string text = "";
System.Drawing.Bitmap bitMap = new Bitmap(imagePath);
for (int i = 0; i < bitMap.Height; i++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < bitMap.Width; j++)
{
if (bitMap.GetPixel(j, i).A.ToString() == "255" && bitMap.GetPixel(j, i).B.ToString() == "255" && bitMap.GetPixel(j, i).G.ToString() == "255" && bitMap.GetPixel(j, i).R.ToString() == "255")
{
text = text + "0";
}
else
{
text = text + "1";
}
}
text = text + "";
}
return ( text);
}

How to capture/store screen shot

Here I am trying to simulate "print screen" using C#.

We all are familiar with taking screen shot manully by pressing "Print Screen" key. There are two alternative for using "Print Screen" key

1) Alt+PrtScn -Image of active screen
2) PrtScn - Image of Desktop



Follwing is the code for that.

///

/// capture/store the screen shot
///

/// true-Active screen
/// image
public static Image GetScreenShot(bool currentScreen)
{

if (currentScreen)
// Simulate Alt+PrtScn keypress.
SendKeys.Send("{%}({PRTSC})");
else
// Simulate PrtScn keypress.
SendKeys.Send("{PRTSC}");

// Get the image from the clipboard.
return (Image)Clipboard.GetImage();

}



In the above example, GetScreenShot() function gets the screen shot and returns an Image object from the Clipboard.

Get Contact information from outlook using C#

The following Code sample guide you to get contact information form outlook ( 2003 or 2007). Before using this code, you need to refer “Microsoft outlook object libary “ in you project .

Note 1: To execute this code outlook must be running in the machine.

Note 2: You have to create an alias for a namespace “Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook”
like using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;


private List GetContacts(string findLastName)
{
List foundContacts = new List();
Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Outlook.ApplicationClass();
Outlook.MAPIFolder folderContacts = outlookApp.ActiveExplorer().Session.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderContacts);
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Items searchFolder = folderContacts.Items;
foreach (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ContactItem foundContact in searchFolder)
{
if (foundContact.LastName.Contains(findLastName))
{
foundContact.Display(false);
foundContacts.Add(foundContact);
}
} return foundContacts;
}

Send a mail, whenever a new record is inserted in a table using Sqlserver 2000

@recipients='you@you.com',
@message = 'body'
@subject = 'foo was fired.'

Find out particular row form grid view using LINQ

Usually getting a row from Grid view, we will loop thou the grids row collection and check for Specific conditions.

GridViewRow SelectedRow;

foreach (GridViewRow gr in GridView1.Rows)
{
if ( gr.Cells[1].ToString() == "Value1" && gr.Cells[2].ToString() == "Value2")
{
SelectedRow = gr; break;
}
}

But using LINQ we can write same thing as more readable manners as given below.

GridViewRow SelectedRow = GridView1.Rows.OfType().FirstOrDefault(row => row.Cells[1].ToString() == "Value1" && row.Cells[2].ToString() == "Value2");
