Hi,
I want to create an 'open file button' using asp control button, which
will display open file
dialog box for users to choose the location of folders to be read. It
might be easy for Windows Application, but i want to do it from web
application. Can someone provide me any examples of code or
suggestions to solve it?
Thank you.

You just link to the file:
<a href="/the/file.doc">open file</a>
-Darrel
Yes, the hyperlink will open a file, but how do you let the user
BROWSE and pick a file like with the file upload control?
One way I can think of is to use the hyperlink method that Darrel
suggests, but point to a directory instead of a file. That way the
user can browse all the files in the directory. This should work
pretty well, but it's still not the standard "File Open" dialog you'd
have with a WinForms app.

There's nothing built-in to support that - you'll need to roll your own or
use a 3rd-party solution.
I use this: http://www.utechsoft.com/products/uupload/ http://www.utechsoft.com/products/udownload/
The only control that allows a user to browse their own file system from
their browser is the HTMLInputFile ("File Upload") control.

I never use the designer to work with my XSD, and it hangs for a few
seconds when opening so I have to wait before I can switch to code
view. How can I change the default to open the code / source?
I searched on here and saw a post which seemed to answer my question,
saying to go to Tools - Options - XML Designer, but there is no such
section in the Options menu in my version of the program.
Thanks

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
