HTTP 1.1 500 Internal Server Error - Help!!
This fixed my problem too. I thought I was going to have to reload IIS and recreate all my virtual directories (and I have a ton on my development machine).
Here are those four magic lines (run at the Visual Studio.Net Command Line):
1) iisreset /stop
2) net user ASPNET /delete
3) aspnet_regiis -i
4) iisreset /start
Another Alternate Way
--------------------------
The fix below is for Asp.net new web apps not opening and receiving the 'HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error'
Check the following:
“My_Computer_Zone code group” value on the Web server? To achieve that, you should do the following:
- Go to “Administrative Tools”
- Open “Microsoft .Net 1.1 Configuration”
- In the new window, expand the “Runtime Security Policy”
- Expand “Machine”, then “Code Groups”, then “All_Code”.
- Right-Click on “My_Computer_Zone” and select properties.
- On the “Permission Set” tab, the selected value should be “Full Trust”
- If it is not, you should change the value to “Full Trust”.
- You can test again creating a new ASP.NET Web application

How to make a button default when enter key is hit (ASP.NET)
Enter Botton
--------------------------
--------------------------
Use this code :
Page.RegisterHiddenField("__EVENTTARGET", "btn_buttonID");
Write this line in your code behind, this line of code should be written in Page_Load event,
this line would always make btn_buttonID fire a click event when ever enter is pressed

Default Button for a TextBox (Data entry screen) in ASP.NET
#) Default Button for a TextBox (Data entry screen) in ASP.NET
Sometimes I get annoyed when hitting the enter key in a TextBox (say login screen) resulting in undesired effects like the wrong Button being "clicked". After so many code tricks, I found the below method that allows you to specify a default Button to submit when the user hits the enter key in a TextBox.
When you press a key on your keyboard, the js OnKeyPress event is fired. This calls a function to which we pass the id of the button associated with the TextBox. The function gets a reference to the button and simuilates a mouse-click on the Button. We perform a browser detection because IE and Netscape have different event models. The function finally returns false so that the keypress event is cancelled (otherwise a second form submit will be raised). I tried this code with newer versions of IE 6.0/Netscape 7 it worked great!.
//client side js
function clickButton(e, buttonid){
var bt = document.getElementById(buttonid);
if (typeof bt == 'object'){
if(navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape")>(-1)){
if (e.keyCode == 13){
bt.click();
return false;
}
}
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet Explorer")>(-1)){
if (event.keyCode == 13){
bt.click();
return false;
}
}
}
}
//code behind
TextBox1.Attributes.Add("onkeypress", "return clickButton(event,'" + Button1.ClientID + "')");
The code behind generates the following code:
This causes web control Button1 to be clicked when the enter key is hit inside TextBox1.
Hope this helps many!

How To Run Office Macros by Using Automation from Visual Basic .NET
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;306682
Create the Visual Basic .NET Automation Client
Start Microsoft Visual Studio .NET. On the File menu, click New, and then click Project. Select Windows Application from the Visual Basic Projects types. Form1 is created by default.
Add a reference to the Access, Excel, PowerPoint, and Word object libraries. To do this, follow these steps:
On the Project menu, click Add Reference.
On the COM tab, locate Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library or Microsoft Word 11.0 Object Library, and then click Select.NOTE: If you are using Microsoft Office XP and you have not already done so, Microsoft recommends that you download and then install the Microsoft Office XP Primary Interop Assemblies (PIAs). For additional information about Office XP PIAs, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
328912INFO: Microsoft Office XP PIAs Are Available for Download
Repeat the previous step for the Access, Excel, and PowerPoint object libraries.
Click OK in the Add References dialog box to accept your selections. If you receive a prompt to generate wrappers for the libraries that you selected, click Yes.NOTE: If you receive an error message when you reference the Access 10.0 object library, see the "Troubleshooting" section.
On the View menu, click ToolBox. Add a combo box and a button to Form1.
Double-click Button1 to generate a definition for the button's Click event handler.
Paste the following code in the Button1_Click procedure:
Select Case ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Case "Access"
Dim oAccess As Access.ApplicationClass
'Start Access and open the database.
oAccess = CreateObject("Access.Application")
oAccess.Visible = True
oAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase("c:\db1.mdb", False)
'Run the macros.
oAccess.Run ("DoKbTest")
oAccess.Run("DoKbTestWithParameter", "Hello from VB .NET Client")
'Clean-up: Quit Access without saving changes to the database.
oAccess.DoCmd().Quit (Access.AcQuitOption.acQuitSaveNone)
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oAccess)
oAccess = Nothing
Case "Excel"
Dim oExcel As Excel.ApplicationClass
Dim oBook As Excel.WorkbookClass
Dim oBooks As Excel.Workbooks
'Start Excel and open the workbook.
oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
oExcel.Visible = True
oBooks = oExcel.Workbooks
oBook = oBooks.Open("c:\book1.xls")
'Run the macros.
oExcel.Run ("DoKbTest")
oExcel.Run("DoKbTestWithParameter", "Hello from VB .NET Client")
'Clean-up: Close the workbook and quit Excel.
oBook.Close (False)
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oBook)
oBook = Nothing
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oBooks)
oBooks = Nothing
oExcel.Quit()
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oExcel)
oExcel = Nothing
Case "PowerPoint"
Dim oPP As PowerPoint.ApplicationClass
Dim oPresSet As PowerPoint.Presentations
Dim oPres As PowerPoint.PresentationClass
'Start PowerPoint and open the presentation.
oPP = CreateObject("PowerPoint.Application")
oPP.Visible = True
oPresSet = oPP.Presentations
oPres = oPresSet.Open("c:\pres1.ppt", , , True)
'Run the macros.
oPP.Run ("'pres1.ppt'!DoKbTest")
oPP.Run("'pres1.ppt'!DoKbTestWithParameter", "Hello from VB .NET Client")
'Clean-up: Close the presentation and quit PowerPoint.
oPres.Close()
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oPres)
oPres = Nothing
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oPresSet)
oPresSet = Nothing
oPP.Quit()
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oPP)
oPP = Nothing
Case "Word"
Dim oWord As Word.ApplicationClass
'Start Word and open the document.
oWord = CreateObject("Word.Application")
oWord.Visible = True
oWord.Documents.Open ("C:\Doc1.doc")
'Run the macros.
oWord.Run ("DoKbTest")
oWord.Run("DoKbTestWithParameter", "Hello from VB .NET Client")
'Quit Word.
oWord.Quit()
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject (oWord)
oWord = Nothing
End Select
GC.Collect()
On the View menu, click Designer and double-click Form1 to generate a definition for the form's Load event.
Paste the following code in the Form1_Load procedure:
ComboBox1.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList
Dim a As String() = {"Access", "Excel", "PowerPoint", "Word"}
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(a)
ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0
Add the following code to the top of Form1.vb:
Imports Access = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access
Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Imports PowerPoint = Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint
Run and Test the Automation Client
Press F5 to run the application.
Select an Office application from ComboBox1, and then click Button1. The Office application that you selected is started and the DoKBTest and DoKBTestWithParameter macros are executed.
