Class Set as DataContext in XAML without Code Behind
Posted by Kelly's Chronicles in .NET, C#, XAML on May 6, 2012
In dealing with a problem at work and I am probably as guilty as anyone of relying on code behind to do basic functions without soley using XAML. Why? Because that’s the way I have always done it. But it’s a new day and time to learn new ways to do things. So here we go….
This example shows a class set as datacontext – the code behind file is completely empty.
Have a great week….

C# Application linked to SharePoint List Web Service
Posted by Kelly's Chronicles in .NET, C#, SharePoint on April 29, 2012
This weekend found myself knee deep in a crisis that my friend who had migrated from SharePoint 2003 to 2007 (there were reasons he couldn’t go to 2010). Simply put the migration from SharePoint 2003 to 2007 had broken his application (tracking program that submitted data to a 2003 SharePoint List) because in SharePoint 2007 you can’t do this while not on the actual server if you have “Web Page Security Validation” enabled. So for the code below you have to have SPWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true; . Obviously not the ideal solution for my friend but we didn’t have time to screw around. Here is what I did….

Get or Write Image Metadata with vb.net
Posted by Kelly's Chronicles in .NET, vb.net on September 1, 2011
I recently started a new contract with a local company and their project is quite image intensive. One of the tasks set before me was to store custom data in an image. Things such as the title, comments and keywords. Turned out to be quite an extensive undertaking. With the help of some other sources, I came up with this code. Ironically as it turned out we can’t use my solution because of some issues with custom image formats that are not respected in Microsoft Windows. But it is here for you! I will post the C# version soon. Also pay attention to your encoding. This was an issue that tripped me up here for a while.

Get or Write Image Metadata with C#
Posted by Kelly's Chronicles in .NET, C#, vb.net on July 15, 2014
Good morning! it’s always fun when old code gets to get used again. And it gave me an opportunity to convert this snippet to C#. Basically what we are trying to do is write or get metadata to an image. As those folks who commented on the previous post noted, this code will not remove existing metadata. It is a problem I still have not found a solution for however. If any of you know the answer please let us know! Anyway here it is converted and still useable after all this time.
