I use notepad for writing daily notes.some times when system gets restarted by accidentally, I loose my content.
So my question is"can I write an auto-save plugin for notepad" ?
Please let me know if I can write an auto-save plugin for Notepad using C#.NET.
I know about Notepad++ but I want to use notepad only.
Thanks in Advance.
There is no direct way of doing this because NotePad is a separate application and you don't have its code. Even if you did have the code, I'm highly sure it wouldn't be in a .NET-based language.
There is an alternate though. You could recreate entire NotePad from scratch in .NET. Believe me it won't take more than a couple hours for a guy who knows his tools (someone out there might already have done that). Then you can add any new features at your choice.
Yet another way would be hooking into NotePad's low-level messages through Platform calls and trying to somehow inject your features into it, but that's something I'm not an expert at and that would probably take more effort/expertise than writing your own NotePad from scratch.

Is it possible to call an exe from a MVC site?
I've seen this link. (I'll try it tomorrow in the morning when I get in the office)
Stackoverflow link
However I wanted to know if I cam barking up the wrong tree.
I have a 3rd party app that provides us a stand alone exe. Instead of sending this exe to x amount of clients. I would like to keep that exe on my web server so I can control who can use the exe.
Is this is viable option?.
You might find the responses to this old question helpful. If you are trying to run an exe file within your application, I think this would be the approach to take.
If I have understood your question wrong, and you are trying to provide users with a link to download an application, or a link to launch an application that already exists on their computer, then you will probably want to look into the html <href> tag.

Is it possible to raise an event in one .dll that can be handled by another? If so, what should I be looking at.
EDIT:
I think the two dlls are running in the same process - they are both add-ins to another program. I'm limited to what I can do with add-ins, hence the need to have this communication.
I thought about writing to a local file and reading it from the other dll, but how would I know when to read it.
It's called Interprocess Communication
You probably would like to look on Pipes, or look into the IpcChannel Class, which may make things even easier. I personally didn't use any of those under C# language, but what important, is an idea and technology behind, the rest is an implementation detail.

As the title says "How do you make a license for your programs?"
Do you use a plugin or do you make your own? I've looked the whole day for finding resulutions, but didnt found one yet.
I basically want a normal license for my program:
A textbox where you type your license "XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"
Is it possible to make this yourself, or should i use a website for it? If i should use a website, which do you recomend then?
It is rather simple to implement a simple license yourself BUT it will no be very save.
Because C# is transformed into IL, everybody can decompile your code easily and work around your license checks. It is very hard to build a license mechanism in a save way, so you should resort to some existing, proven solution.

I've seen a few topics over the web of how to replace text in a Word Document, but my real question is the following: Is Interop the best option? Is there any other (better) option?
Here is an example of a topic I've read LINK.
I'm trying to arrange something that will work great on a Web Server, so I'm asking too if you guys could provide some code to get me started.
Thanks!
This is a very difficult question to answer since it involves that much opinions about which is best, in any definition of best.
As a starter I would definitely go for VSTO / interop since it is easier to go, and is integrated with and maintained by the developer of both products (Office and Visual Studio).
If your require it to run on a server (with ASP.NET for example) you should NEVER use VSTO / interop.
Why?
This is what Microsoft says about it.
Office interop is not built to run on a server as a process. It is too heavy, and depends on the UI capabilities for rendering, etc. You could use Open XML for Word or EPPlus for Excel for example.

I know this is a difficult issue, but I'm asked to build an application that allows users to scan pages (from an Automatic Document Feeder) , and upload them into an FTP server. And I should integrate this into a PHP web application.
Any programming language will work, I just want to know how.
I have found a C# library called WIA. Is it the best option I have ?
Can I build a browser application (with Flash or Java) that can interact with the scanner ?
Thanks !
Perhaps you can check out the following sourceforge project called phpSANE.http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsane/
Essentially need to setup and use SANE to work with your scanner. You can then use or modify (cause it's open source) phpSANE running on your web server which will then pick up the files and save them to an FTP server.
I'm not sure how you might automatically detect documents put into the Automatic Document Feeder, perhaps there is a way SANE is notified and you can get this use this to call a PH script?
