    <p>I am developing an application in which I want to pull out some information through the DHCP server. so I am sending a DHCPINFORM packet on port 67 UDP Broadcast. The problem I am facing is that I am not getting response i.e. DHCPACK or anyother message from DHCP server all the times, means some times it send back an DHCPACK packet at once and some time not at all, what might be cause of this issue?</p> <p>Here is my network configuration My IP: 192.168.3.31 DHCP Server is at: 192.168.3.108</p> <p>and C# code I am using is as</p> <pre><code>private void SendDHCPINFORM() { UdpClient udpClient = new UdpClient();

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
