Add Connection On Data Source Controls Not Loading SQL Server 2012 Server Or Instance Name

-
After installing SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition SP1 on my other laptop, I tried creating an ASP.NET app using SQL DataSource control as the datasource control of the GridView. But to no avail, the mssql server instance doesn't load on the server name dropdown contol as shown below:
Add Connection On Data Source Controls Not Loading SQL Server 2012 Server Or Instance Name
The hardware specifications are as follows: Windows 8 Pro, Visual Studio 2008/2010/2012 and SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition SP1. However, on my other laptop which has a Windows 8.1 OS, the server names were loaded on the Server Name dropdown control. After experimenting for a few hours, I discovered a simple solution which is to Turn Off The Windows Firewall. After that, my sql server instance is loaded on the control as shown below:

      Hi,

      This is recommended for personal setup at home or single workstation and not in a network or domain. For network based approach, I suggest you make some changes in your firewall settings or perhaps coordinate with the Network Administration.

Good day to all! Here's an example of a WPF CRUD (Create,Update and Delete) project using the DataGrid control, ADO.NET Entity Framework 6.x, C#.NET and Model–View–Viewmodel(MVVM) architectural pattern.

The steps below are pretty straightforward and easy to follow. I. Project Setup 1. Add a table called Students in you database.

Good Day Gents! During this free-time I started setting up Node.js on my machine as part of my career goals which is learning new frameworks in preparation for new projects. So the first thing I did was to install TypeScript language to get myself familiar with Angular 2+. After I finished setting up TypeScript, I then created a simple HelloWorld program and ran the application through Visual Studio Code using the "tsc: build - tsconfig.json" command. I encountered an error which says "The term 'tsc' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again." Below are the details on my machine and packages installed:   - Operating System: Windows 10 Pro   - Node.js: 14.16.0   - npm version: 6.14.11   - Typescript: 4.2.3 (using command: "npm install -g typescript") After doing some research and reading th...

Invalid nested tag div found, expected closing tag input

-
Hello all, I've been experimenting on how to print html document using the said 3rd party software called iTextSharp . iTextSharp is a popular tool and has several examples on the internet regarding integration to the project and occurring issues. One of the issue I encountered is Invalid nested div tag and is expecting a closing tag input . As I trace back my html source, the tags are well-formed except that they are self closing tags such as <input>, <hr>, <img>, <br> or the like. These tags when passed to an action method as string are not properly closed and thus an issue is thrown by iTextSharp's XMLWorkerHelper's ParseXHtml() method. <img src= "~/Images/success.png" /> <input type= "hidden" name= "OrderStatusHTML" /> <input type= "submit" id= "btnSubmit" value= "Export to PDF" class= "btn btn-success" /> The solution I came up with is to fi...
