I want to make some exception catching code a little cleaner, if possible.I currently have the below:
Catch ex As System.Exception
If ex.Message.Contains("opened exclusively by another user") And errCnt < 30 Then
sender.ReportProgress(0, "Waiting for database to become available")
[code]....
I have a program runs with access database. It runs ok on WINXP. However, when I run it on Vista, it shows this exception: system.InvalidOperationException: The 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local machine.
I searched, it seems the exception has some relations with 64bit OS, but my vista is 32bit home version.
When catching an exception in .net, you can have as many type-specific exception blocks as needed. But I usually try to have at least one "general" exception catch block. But is there a way to get the type of the "real" exception thrown that is caught by the generic exception handler, perhaps using reflection?For example, if I have
Catch ex As System.ServiceModel.FaultException(Of InvalidUser)
ProcessModuleLoadException(Me, ex)
Catch ex As System.ServiceModel.FaultException(Of SQLExceptions)
[code].....
I am trying to catch an exception but occasionally get an inner exception. I want to output both into a label. I often get Object reference not set to instance of an object if there is no inner exception.
Catch ex As Exception
exError = ex.Message.ToString
If Not ex.InnerException.Message Is Nothing Then
[Code]....
I have a method as follows:
Public Sub Send()
Dim caughtException As Exception = Nothing
Try
//Attempt action.
Catch ex As Exception //Custom exceptions which can be thrown all inherit from Exception.
//Instantiate error object to be logged.
caughtException = ex
End Try
//Log action and if there is an error log this too.
If caughtException IsNot Nothing Then Throw caughtException
End Sub
It is essential that I log the error for reports, which after research, rethrowing the exception is the right thing to do. What I am concerned about is preservation of stack information. In order to keep the code DRY I am logging the action in one place - after the exception has been caught. This functionality is ultimately exposed via WCF.
I have the following code :

What is going on with my code. To .NET and handling SQL connections. I am trying to catch an error where lets say someone puts in something that violates the rules of the field (i.e. they put data in a field that doesn't matched what is on the other table.) Please find teh code I ahve put on the save button to try to catch the error. Instead of popping a message box up the program just closes itself.

I'm trying to parse a user-submitted csv file in ASP.NET with VB. Here is my function:
[Code]...
Dim con As New OleDb.OleDbConnection
Sub connecttodatabase(ByVal fileselected As String)
Dim databasepassword

The error I am encountering occurs at the second con.Open() when I try to connect to a .mdb database file which I created in access, the function correctly tells me I have a password, but then once I enter my password I get the error defined in the title, and I have no idea why.
I have login system where once logged in, there is a global variable which holds the users ID. In another form, I have an SQL update which updates rows in the user table. So my dilemma is this: When I try to update it either updates the first user only, or all users.
The SQL I have :
Dim Update As String = _
"Update User Set field1=?, field2=? field3=?"
What I would like is...
Dim Update As String = _
"Update User Set field1=?, field2=? field3=? where ID =?"
However this doesn't work.

To query an excel sheet via SQL, I used to use either:
Dim excelConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + strPath + ";Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;IMEX=1;HDR=YES;"""
or
Dim excelConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source= " + strPath + ";Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0;IMEX=1;HDR=YES;"""
Now this worked fine until I installed Office 2010.
Now I get a
Microsoft.Ace.OLEDB.12.0 provider is not registered on this machine
exception.
How can I find out the correct connection string/provider?

View 3 RepliesI have a situation in which I must execute a dynamically built stored procedure against tables that may, or may not be in the database. The data retrieved is then shunted to a VB.Net backed ASP based report page. By design, if the tables are not present in the database, the relevant data is automatically hidden on the report page. Currently, I'm doing this by checking for the inevitable error, and hiding the div in the catch block. A bit kludgy, but it worked.I can't include the VB code-behind, but the relevant stored procedure is included below.However, a problem with this method was recently brought to my attention when, for no apparent reason, the div was being hidden even though the proper data was available. As it turned out, the user trying to select the table in the dynamic SQL call didn't have the proper select permissions, an easy enough fix once I could track it down.First and foremost - is there a better way to check for a missing table than through catching the error in the VB.Net codebehind? All things considered, I'd rather save the error checking for an actual error. Secondly, is there a preferred method to squirrel out a particular OLE DB error out of the general object caught by the try->catch block other than just checking the actual stack trace string?
SQL Query - The main gist of the code is that, due to the design of the database, I have to determine the name of the actual table being targeted manually. The database records jobs in a single table, but each job also gets its own table for processing data on the items processed in that job, and it's data from those tables I have to retrieve. Absolutely nothing I can do about this setup, unfortunately. [code]

My program reads a 3rd party .txt file using OleDb and reads the file into a datatable. It's overall working fine except a user will occasionally have a problem reading a file. At this point.
Line that gets hung up
Try
Dim comm1 As New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM " & safeFileName & " Where " & Status & " = '" & StatusClosed & "'", con)
Dim dasold As New OleDbDataAdapter(comm1)
dasold.Fill(dtsold)
AddColsold()
[Code] .....
It can not retrieve a date for one of the fields, then gives error and does not get dates for each records after the one it gets hung up on but the date is in the file. If I open the file in excel and play with the column sizing, for instance just autoformat column width then it read the date and will work fine. I have looked at the file in notepad and cant see anything wrong in particular on the record it gets hung up on. I have no control over the .txt file since it comes form a 3rd party.
I have a problem with Oledb connection when I am trying to open an Excel spreadsheet:
[code]...
This piece of code works well on one computer, but on another the IMEX=1 doesn't seem to work, and the Jet seems to read the first few rows of the Excel spreadsheet that are numeric and decides that the whole spreadsheet is numeric, so it ignores some String values later in the sheet.
I am using OleDbCommand to create a dataadpater and then filling a datatableThen fill BindingSources with the datatable and finally bind textboxes to with my bindingsource. My question is can i reference the cloumns by number rather then by name I have searched around and cant seem to find any information:

Just wondering if i might hit a snag in my program. Ive got 10+ users using the same files, via a Oledb to put info into an excel spreadsheet. If 2 or more people save there file at the same time will the program go into read only on one person. Normally one 3 will use the file at one time. I know Sql itself would be better to use. best way i can describe it, normally using excel if you manage to open the same file twice one opens as normal but the other opens as a Read only file, will the same thing happen if im using Oledb connections?
