Comments (0) Well, not really. But if you’re a fan of the original PvZ and just can’t wait for the sequel – check out this beauty:
“Mini Robot Wars” looks like a straight out clone of Plant vs. Zombies, but as clones go – this one is pretty good, give it a try!
Found this gem today:
It’s a Visual Basic IDE environment for developing Android apps. But unlike other similar solutions it does not require bloated runtime running on the device, Basic4Android easily compiles native APK app.
Don’t learn Java, utilize your existing Visual Basic skills instead. And the community of thousands of developers can be a huge help as well.
Also you’re in luck today. Download the trial, play around with it and if you like it - use discount code “bvqbet” to get 50% off any version! Here’s how:
Happy coding!
If you bricked your Motorola DROID 3 phone while rooting it, installing some custom ROM or doing other fun stuff – don’t despair, there’s light at the end of the tunnel.
(Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. But then again, if you’re reading this, something already has happened to it).
You’re done! Your phone is resurrected, feel free to root it, install custom ROMs and do other fun stuff again.
NOTE: You phone may require activation after the flash, just follow original Verizon activation steps (if you’re not prompted to activate your phone and still have no connection just dial *228 and follow the instructions).
CREDITS: Thanks chevycam94 for original SBF-ing instructions and files. As a matter of fact these instructions are pretty much exact copy of first 9 steps of his instruction on how to flash his custom ROM Steel Droid – check it out!

cool, Google, life saver, solution
Let’s say you have a table with some dates and numeric values e.g.:
2011-08-19 16 2011-08-22 45 2011-08-24 62 2011-08-25 88 2011-08-27 17 2011-08-28 35 2011-09-01 10 2011-09-02 79 2011-09-03 70 2011-09-07 83
As you can see not all dates are in the sequential order, 24th comes after 22nd etc. But in many cases you need this data to be sequential, for example if this data feeds a chart you need to fill it with missing dates and 0 for a value. There is an easy way to achieve this. Continue reading 'TSQL: Filling missing date range'»
When Infragistics UltraWebGrid is not in LoadOnDemand mode, you need to rebind the grid to the data source in PageIndexChanged event for paging to work. What’s neat – before the rebind, grid is still on the old page, effectively giving you “BeforePageIndexChanged” or “PageIndexChanging” event in server-side code:
Protected Sub xuwgGrid_PageIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As UltraWebGrid.PageEventArgs) Handles xuwgGrid.PageIndexChanged
'Page hasn't changed yet, collect data from the old page
'Or cancel the rebind and remain on the old page
'rebinding the grid to the datasource
BindGrid()
'New page is in effect
End Sub

When Infragistics WebDataGrid perform AJAX operations such as sorting and paging – it sends grid data directly to page’s DOM. But it also allows you to send your own custom data via server-side GridResponse object and its client-side counterpart. This feature allows you to establish effective link between server and client to perform custom operations otherwise available only during full postback or partial postback via update panel. There’re multiple cases where this can be used, let’s take a look at 3 most common:

In the previous post I described a method to automatically resize columns for Infragistics grid control. It works (most of the times) for flat WebDataGrid, but if you try same approach with WebHierarchicalDataGrid – it will fail for child bands.
Lets review what we’re trying to accomplish. A grid column should automatically resize to whichever is wider: either size of widest data in a column cell, or size of column header’s caption.
First is accomplished by not setting column width explicitly and by setting white-space attribute of cell’s style to nowrap. It can be done by either opening grid CSS class file located at ~/ig_res/[Your Style Name]/ig_dataGrid.css, locate tbody.igg_[Your Style Name]Item>tr>td class and add one more line at the end: white-space:nowrap. Here is an example with Office 2007 Style:
tbody.igg_Office2007BlueItem>tr>td
{
background-color:White;
border-right:solid 1px #D0D7E5;
border-bottom:solid 1px #D0D7E5;
padding:2px 5px 2px 5px;
height: 18px;
overflow: hidden;
text-align:left;
vertical-align:middle;
white-space:nowrap;
}
Or (if you don’t want to touch original style) same can be achieved by *CssClass properties exposed by the grid.
Second (resizing column to header’s caption width, if it is wider then cells’ data) is a bit tricker. Continue reading 'Improved Auto-size columns for Infragistics WebHierarchicalDataGrid'»
It’s a common scenario, your table has several records with identical values and you need to leave only one, deleting the rest. Here is a generic TSQL query (SQL Server 2005 and above) that does just that in a few lines:
WITH DUP_TABLE AS
(SELECT ROW_NUMBER()
OVER (PARTITION BY FIELD1, FIELD2 ORDER BY FIELD1, FIELD2) As ROW_NO
FROM ORIGINAL_TABLE)
DELETE FROM DUP_TABLE WHERE ROW_NO > 1
Here ORIGINAL_TABLE is your table with duplicates. FIELD1 and FIELD2 are columns with duplicates value (feel free to add or remove columns to suit your needs). Internal query assigns a row number to each duplicate record and DELETE statements that uses that CTE deletes all the rows except the one with Row Number = 1
Infragistics Aikido WebDataGrid offers a nice built-in ColumnMoving behavior. When enabled – it allows user to drag columns to change their order:
But what if you want to keep this behavior and add your own custom column drag-and-drop? For example to create your own column grouping, since WebHierarchicalDataGrid doesn’t handle grouping well.
In this post I will describe a simple technique how to both keep behavior shown above and implement custom column drag-and-drop:

Infragistics UltraWebGrid offers a nice grouping feature: when the grid is in OutlookGroupBy mode, you can group similar data with very little coding required, you can go from this view:
to this:
by just dragging columns to designated area.
But what if you want to group by first letter of a name or a year of a date? New WebHierarchicalDataGrid control offers this functionality after 10.2 release of Infragistics NetAdvantage, but if you invested years of work in classic UltraWebGrid – it’s not easy to move to a brand new control cold turkey. There’re other methods that offer custom grouping for UltraWebGrid, but the ones I found were pretty convoluted (like create a hidden column, populate it with data to group by etc.) Here is a simpler approach.
