Kevin, 

In essence, what you'd do by using the .NET libraries for ARS as opposed to 
direct access to the DB via ODBC/DAO/ADO/EIEIO is leveraging the ARS User 
authentication as well as any permissions, workflow, business rules, etc. that 
are in the AR application. Consequently, this is the superior way to go as you 
don't need to, as my esteemed colleague Matt said, "reinvent the wheel".

Besides, you don't really want to build a security model in ASP.NET, do you? ;)

You might try copying the code from the ASP.NET examples into a new project is 
MSVWD and see if it will work in that fashion.

My second, and probably more pertinent question is this: why not use the 
Mid-Tier and the Requester Console? It provides exactly what you're asking for 
and then some. Not to mention, it's a whole lot easier to maintain (and lord 
knows, if I can code a solution I will because I'm weird like that so I don't 
ask this question lightly).

  ** Hi Matt,

        I already have this file, the sample in the arsys_aspnet does not 
convert properly into MS Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition, it will not 
load.

        Plus, I still lost at how the connections are made where -

        1. Login Page (Check your Remedy LoginID and password from CTM:People 
form)
        2. Based upon your Remedy LoginID show you only your Incidents you have 
open etc

        Thanks,

        Kevin P.

        ** 
        Kevin,



        Go to http://developer.bmc.com and search for “AR System .NET and COM 
API 7.1”.  That will allow you to use the Remedy API for the functions you need 
(no reason to reinvent the wheel!).



        Good luck,


        Matt Reinfeldt

        ** 

              Hello everyone and happy Friday!

              I am extremely new to asp.net coding, couple of days to be exact.
              Here is what I have done so far -
              1. Downloaded and installed MS Visual Web Developer 2008 Express 
Edition.
              2. Created a SQL DataSource connection to my SQL 2005 ARSystem 
database
              3. I am able to pull all data (Incidents that are currently in - 
Views, HPD_Help_Desk form)

              Ok here is where I need some help -

              What I would like to do

              1. Login Page (Check your Remedy LoginID and password from 
CTM:People form)
              2. Based upon your Remedy LoginID show you only your Incidents 
you have open etc.
              3. Update your Incidents if needed.

              I've seen this done before, so I know it's possible.
              I searched the ARSList, ASP.Net, BMC Developer Community and MSDN 
to no avail on some sample code
              I hope someone is willing to share some asp.net code, or where I 
can find some sample code.

              Current system -
              AR Server 7.1 patch 002
              Service Desk (Incident & Problem Patch 7)
              Mid-Tier
              SQL 2005

              If there is any other information required please let me know.

              Thanks and have a great weekend.
