Find The Real Name Of The Server That Is Specified In The Connection String?
Oct 14, 2011
I have two databases, one on my local work computer and other on a server. Both have been created with Microsoft SQL Server 2008. I can access both of them with connection strings that contains names of the servers and some other information. However the names contain only the ip-number of the server. And I need the full name of the server and the instance created, separated with "" character. I can see them in my SQL management studio but I need to get them from VB-code.I created SqlConnection-class but it finds only the ip-addressed name. SqlSourceDataEnumerator won't do good because it finds all unnecessary server names that I don't need. How can I find the real name of the server that is specified in the connection string?

how to find connection string of any database or any server like, access or sql or Oracle?ans:-to find connection string.first open the new notepad.don't write anything it it.just save any side like my document,or Desktop with any name and give it's extension. " UDL ".after there will be one PC type folder will be created. double click on that folder and go to first tab that is Provider.select your provider like Access, Sql etc. and go to Next tab that is connection. if access then it will tell you enter database name or you can locate your database .mdb file and if it is sql then it will ask you your server name, authentication and database name. select it and click on text connection it will give message connection is OK.then close the file and further open that file with notepad you will get your connection string.

I have installed sql server 2005 in my machine which is installed vb.net 2008. I want my machine to distribute the database to the clients and make it as server.I don't have that much knowledge of how to overcome this issue as i am awfully naive about it.Let me start it here:I have got an application in vb.net...at first i was using ms access database 2007. then decided to switch on to the sql server since i want to distribute the database to the clients who are going to use my application.When i installed the sql server, i imported my access db files onto sql server database. i enabled tcp/ip as enable in the sql server network Configuration. i want use sql server windows authentication as my default user account of my system for the sake to simplify the issue.
Hence, i connected the sql server into the vb.net through the "add new data source".am done with that...the problem is how do i assign the connection string to the vb.net? Or how do i include a connection string in vb.net which tells every other computer that the database data source is in my computer so that every computer can automatically check it in the network.Where exactly shall i put the connection string...as far as my knowledge is concerned for access database, you can easily identify your connection string in project /properties/settings...it goes here and you put your database in any where.And what is the best connection string do i need for sql server 2005..computers are running windows xp.

I've been getting this error when I try and use my model container:
No connection string named 'PFModelContainer' could be found in the application config file.
I have my edmx file in a separate project. I checked the app.config file and my model was there, and I also put it in my main project app.config file. Still doesn't work. Here's the connection string:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="PFModelContainer"

I built a window's app in VB. The app is made to be used worldwide. The app works fine when it is installed on a computer using the same network than the local machine hosting the sql database. The problem actually, is that, when the app is installed on a computer using a diferent network, the connection fails.

I have a little problem with application setting in VB.net 2008. I want to switch main server and backup server connection string with combobox. [Code] It did change the Application Setting connection string in the main form when combobox1 was changed. But the problem comes, when child form was called. On the child form there is DataGridView with Dataset using application connection string. Even the Backupserver was selected on the main form, child form dataset connection string doesn't change. I don't know how to pass the current connection string to child form dataset although it is set to use application setting.

I am trying to build a user control that will do exactly what the SQL 2005 Connect to Server interface do, eventually create a connection string and store in a app.config file. It should allow user to select server type, server name, authentication, user name and password. It should also automatically load available servers and domain login by default.

I share my internet connection with other users through LAN. There's some one who keeps cutting me off from time to time to increase his download speed.I know that there is some orders that can be written in the command line to reconnect to the internet after every cut but I don't know them.I started teaching myself programming under VB 2008 Express as a hobby few weeks ago. I was wondering if there is a way to write a program in VB to check the connection condition every few milliseconds and reconnect again to the real gateway till the attacker get bored.

I have a project where I added visually and successfully a datasource of MySql. I binded a datagridview with a table.
But, how do I change programatically the password, ip or user to connect with the MySql server? Because it can change at any time, so I can let the user change these values.

methods/procedures for sending real time data from a VB.net app to a web server (asp.net) for real time display. My question relates to the best method to send the data from the desktop app and the best way to receive and handle the data on the server. I'm not asking for sample code, just some idea of what methods to research. I am currently using a text file upload method but I'm sure there is a more efficient way of achieving this.

I have a machine which creates a new log file at the beginning of the day(12am) and updates the log file whenever there is any changes until the end of the day. How do I import the data in real time (30 sec, 1min or whenever there is any changes) to my SQL server database? Will SQL Server 2008 be able to access the active log file? If not will it be easier if I let my machine create a new log file whenever there is any updates? But if it is so, how do I import so many log files with different names in real time. (I must be able to scale the solution up to multiple machines).

This will happen at random, and I can always just catch the error and re-establish connection to the server, but I am confused as to why. When doing lots of inserting into the sql server, I only establish one connection that is public, instead of many little connections. I had my doubts on a public sql connection, but it's been running great, and I've seen no problems until this morning. Again, this random moment I hit an error that stated, sql connection state is broken. Is it bad practice to just accept this error, and when it happens, re-establish the connection?
