I am designing a .NET desktop app for a small clinical lab. They do stuff like blood tests etc...
When they perform a test they need to print a report. Users should be able to define new types of tests in the system and design the report (that is given to the patient) for that test.
So I need a reporting designer with the following capabilities.
can be integrated in to a desktop app
can be used by non technical users to create reports
Take a business object as the data source
Report can be saved in a central location so all the users can access it
Once the report is created and saved, the system should be able to populate it with the necessary data (a report of a patient).
Should be able to define new reports based on a template - as the report header is same for all types of reports (It has patient data etc...).
Can you point me to a component that supports all of the above requirements ?
Thanks in advance.
I was for some years in a company that developed a custom Report Designer, and we used components from DevExpress.
https://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/Controls/WinForms/Snap/
The requirements you presented, I belive you can do with the DevExpress component, but it will take some work, and the features aren't available out-of-the-box.
There are others components but I don't know them in detail, but you can check them

I am making windows based application where I do a lot of data processing and end up with list of coordinates and other information. I would like to use to plot markers, routes etc on a google map.
I believe that the google api is meant for web based applications.
I would like to keep the solution desktop based since that framework is best suited to do all the data processing I want.
Is there a clean, non third party based solution to use google maps and the api to do drawing and marking on the map from within the .net application?
You can use GreatMaps GMap.NET control for Microsoft's platforms.
it is across platform, open source .NET control from Microsoft.
check the below link to understand how to use GMap.Net control

I am looking for a professional tool that will enable me to implement an excel like formula engine.
I require support for custom functions, an editor (in winforms or WPF) which gives a descent user experience (Intellisense , auto complete, partial evaluation of the formula etc...)
All I could find so far are just back-end projects such as:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/17853/Implementing-an-Excel-like-formula-engine
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/57264/Eval3-wrapper
And those do not provide any client side , only backend engine.
There are some Excel-formula-engines out there (mostly commercial) - but since you need a frontend too the only one I know of is SpreadsheetGear. Hope this helps...
Spreadsheetgear is one of the more established products. According to their site Microsoft also use their product?? It's expensive though.

In our company we manually upload code on a server to make it live after testing code on a local server.
So, almost all the developers has a rights for inserting new code and updating existing code and any developer can delete/remove page or code from live.
So, I just want to keep track that which developer has inserted/updated/deleted or access the page on part of a code that is on server.
Is there any software available for uploading code on server ? Which keeps tracks of the user who has last access the page that is on server.
I want such a tool so that i can get notification that who has altered or edit code or page.
I'm not aware of anything that will watch for changes to files and record which user the process that made the change was running as.
This problem is usually solved by having (at the very least) a VCS (git, svn, mercurial, cvs, etc). This records who made what changes to the code.
It is common to run automatic builds on an continuous integration server (e.g. Jenkins CI).
Ideally those builds would generate an installable package (e.g. deb, rpm) that gets installed on the servers rather then code being copied up manually.

We are developing a custom .NET directory listing style application for a client and we require a powerful search solution. The application will be built in ASP .NET C# on SQL Server 08. The application is based around data which users to the organisation can enter in a profile management style area. Fields can be textboxes, textareas, selection boxes, multiselects etc. A user from the main website needs to be able to use the search function to find a result, but this result should search the entire database and not only base the results on one or two fields. It could be anything within any of the fields the user can fill out or select etc.
Can anyone help me find a possible solution for a .NET powered search engine we can use for this application? It must be preferably C#, running on .NET 3.5 and SQL Server 08. The database is a completely custom built schema and so there is no schema example to show or that can be shown.
If you need more information to provide a satisfactory answer let me know and I'll try to provide some more information specific to what you ask.
Thanks, Cian
Checkout Lucene.Net.
Lucene.Net is a source code, class-per-class, API-per-API and algorithmatic port of the Java Lucene search engine to the C# and .NET platform utilizing Microsoft .NET Framework.
You might want to check out Lucerne.NET, which is the search solution used by StackOverflow
In addition to Lucene .NET (which I've used and is very good), you could also consider SQL Server's Full-text search. This is also very powerful and if all the data you need to query is in the database is another good option for you - we used it for a large enterprise management system and it worked well for us.

I am on a project where I have multiple users of a portal and they are connected to other users of the portal. Now we are asked to draw a “Social Network” relationship graph to see the relationships. The constraint is that this graph has to be seen in the web browser.
The graph has to be something like:
Is there any C# library or component to draw this type of graphs? We have already checked these:
http://flare.prefuse.org/
http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yfiles_practicalinfo_gallery.html
.NET graph library around?
http://quickgraph.codeplex.com/
https://graphsharp.codeplex.com/

http://sourceforge.net/projects/zedgraph/
But I want to check if you already used some other and your feedback.
I've used Northwoods Go.NET for many years and it has been great.
I've used Microsoft chart it's fine and free !
Maybe you can take a look to graphviz too : http://www.graphviz.org/
It can be expensive but Tom Sawyer Visualization, ActiveX edition is a solution to the problem.
Another great product I just stumbled across with HTML5 (canvas/SVG) support:

They also have a pure client-side JavaScript library also with HTML5 support:
