.net - Access A Accdb File (MS Access 2007) From Resources?
May 27, 2011
I am writing a very simple program that connects to a accdb file (Microsoft Access 2007 file) and returns some results in a datagridview. Everything is fine. Now because we have to deploy this program in many computers i publish it so everyone we want can install it and have updates. What i wanted to do is to make the database file part of the program which i did it by adding it to the resources. My problem is that i do not know what connection string to enter in order to access it in my resources.
My previous connectionstring before i deploy it was this
I'm in a college class using the Microsoft visual studio 2008 for visual basic and i have a project where i'm supposed to connect a database but it can't recognize the database file as a database. I followed the book exactly so i don't know what the problem is.
A. A Visual Basic program is developed to read a text file to Access 2003 database using the Data Access Objects (DAO). The following is the DAO command:
Set db = DAO.DBEngine(0).OpenDatabase("C:TempMyAccess2003.mdb")
B. The office Access 2003 database (*.mdb) is going to be upgraded to Access 2007 database (*.accdb).
C. The Visual Basic program is revised to read the same text file to Access 2007 database using the same Data Access Objects (DAO), The following is the DAO command:
Set db = DAO.DBEngine(0).OpenDatabase("C:TempMyAccess2007.accdb")
D. The following error message occurs when the revised Visual Basic program is executed:
I had previously used VB6; I am now using VS2008; What is the best manner to now open the database using the VB code? The code works with the Access 2003 database.
I am using Server Explorer in VS2010 to connect to an Access 2007 .accdb database. I started getting 'No error message available, result code:E_UNEXPECTED (0x8000FFFF). However, my program runs from Debug and accesses the data.My connection string is Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:MypathDatabase1.accdb. I exited my project and created a new project and tried to add a connection. I could not connect to Access 2007 or Access 2003 databases (.mdb).I had to exit VS2010 and start it again before it started working again.
I have an application that has an Ms Access 2007 DataBase which runns great if access is installed. Is there any code that I can use in vb that I would be able to run access with out installing it.
I am making a VB.NET application linked to a database. when you press the button 'generate' it is writes (fairly simple) webpages to a folder in your destkop. what I tried was adding a build-in uploader to my website, but my host didn't supported that. ok, not that big of a deal, and completely out of context but now let's get to the core of my problem;
I wanted to have an image in the resources (none made yet) and have it copied out the resources and placed along with the webpages (to use it as background image). I have tried a lot (clearly not everything or it would work) but I just don't manage to solve this. the problem is I need to be able to do this, since I want to have my .accdb in the resources to, so that it copies out when used an writes (an updated version) back to the resources and deletes the external file. but I never seem to manage to do this. I tried to read,write and other things it with IO and everything, just getting the message that it cannot be read. but I never seem to find how to copy/move it outside the program. the code I am using now looks like this:
Imports System.Reflection Imports System.IO 'this is for the writing of the .HTML files Imports System Public Class webGenerator
I have an encrypted program in my resources in a project I'm working on and I need to access that file like this. Dim fs As New FileStream(filepath, FileMode.Open)
I have multiple copies of Access dbs running varous projects on diverse workstation all over the country. Some new additions to the team have only Access 2007. Is there a way that I can use both versions without having to re-do any VBA, macros, scripts, etc.?
I am creating a windows application using VB.net and I would like to know how I can go about creating a download button so that when the user clicks it, it is able to download the specific attachment from the attachment column in the database.
I have a CSV file which is delimited by a ~ and I am strugling with VB.Net code to be able to import the CSV file into Access 2007.My CSV file is located in c:empdrv.csvDatabase located in c:empdrv.accdb I have been searching on google for sometime now and can't find the solution, any help would be really apreshiated.Code so far, but this does not work:
Code:Dim myConn As OleDb.OleDbConnectionmyConn = New OleDb.OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:TempDRV.accdb;Persist Security Info=False;")Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO drv_data (link_ID,drv_type,drv_text) SELECT * FROM [Text;Database=C:Temp;Hdr=No].[C: empdrv.csv]", myConn)myConn.Open()cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()myconn.Close()

I developed a custom help system for my ACCESS 2007 application using Help Workshop. I wish to open this .chm file by a command button on a form but does anyone know how to do that?
I've recently made another question about connecting to MS-ACCESS database with .NET in C# or VB.NET. It worked just as intended with MDB, but with accdb it caused an exception in
conn.Open();which follows:
Is there another way to do this? My original intention (like stated in the original question) is gathering some (actually, a lot of) fields.

I just purchased VS 2010 Professional. I was using 2010 Express and i used to use Crystal Reports 9 to create my reports.

I have built an Access 2007 database with some data stored in it. I have managed to export data using VB2008 from that database to Excel 2007 and have it automatically draw charts based on this data and a query in the Visual Basic Code. One of the results looks like this:
how could we download a pdf file and import the tabular data into access 2007 database, i have tried and got successful in downloading the pdf file from an URL, but not able to import the table data into access 2007 database/or may be an excel file through a VB6 program.
