i want to ask what is the difference between oledb connection and odbc connection. I have a case, my office used ncomputing then i have to developed an application using sqlserver 2000 and vb.net 2005, i used oledb connection. When i try to implement it in ncomputing, why user must has admin access level and dbo level in sql server, it seems trouble when all users are admin. But there's a rumor that when using odbc connection, we dont need to give admin access level for users.es.

I have a script that checks a version table from one mdb (server) and compares it to the same table in another mdb (user folder), if the version number is mismatched it needs to replace that file from the server, to the user folder. The problem is, how to get the OLEDB connection to the user folder since, the folder destination is
E:Configurator & UserName & Detail2004.mdb
How to set this up?
Here is my code:
Dim UserName As String = Environment.UserName.Substring(Environment.UserName.LastIndexOf("") + 1)
Dim connectionString2 As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=C:Configurator" & UserName & "Detail2004.mdb"

We're converting a Classic ASP site to an ASP.NET site. One function was to upload a 'template' of data in CSV format for importing into the database. There were several different record types in there (the first field always indentifies the type of data).The task was to get the CSV into a DataTable so it could be validated (new project is to have MUCH better validation rules)
The code seemed pretty straightforward - watered down (taking out comments, Try/Catch, etc) it is as follows:
Dim da As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Dim cn As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & strDirectory & ";" & "Extended Properties=""Text;HDR=No;FMT=Delimited;""")
[code]....
The DataTable (dtData) is populated, but only starting with the second line of the CSV file DESPITE the fact that "HDR=No" is in the connection string.

I understand the possibilities for encrypting a connection string in .net v4. I have a win forms application that will be used by multiple people on different machines. I understand that I need to protect the connection string at time of the app being first run on the target machine. However I am concerned that for a period of time my connection string will be unencrypted. I am looking for advice in how to deploy my app with the connection string already encrypted or encrypted during installation. encrypting the connection string in a secure way?

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'm developing an app in vb.net (visual studio 2008). I have a Teradata back-end that will be supporting multiple users in a production environment. I need to use variables in the connection string as the user/pass will be changed every 3 months.
For the gist of the application:
In it's most basic form - I have a search form which works correctly - it pulls results into a listbox and the user then double clicks the list box which will then open a form that is bound via table adapter to the back-end table (Teradata). My connection string is fine everywhere in the application. My problem is using a modified connection string for the "fill" function of the table adapter once the form is opened.
I'm using the code below for the on-load event and keep getting an "invalid connection string" - again, the connection string works fine everywhere else in the app, and the variables etc... are working correctly.
Private Sub adaptertest_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I've been all over the help files and finally patched together a VB OleDb connection string for delimited text files:
Dim connection As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=" & fName & ";" & "Extended Properties=""text;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited"""
"fName" is passed in by an open file dialog.In every case (for all paths) it throws: 'C:1_2010NormalFileNormal.csv' (or where ever it is pointed) is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.Since no path works, it must be a syntax error, but I'll be darned if I can see it.
Full code of this routine is:
Dim connection As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=" & fName & ";" & "Extended Properties=""text;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited"""
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection(connection)

Why doesn't an exception get thrown when this function is called when there is no ConnectionString set for the Connection? I just spent 15 minutes debugging and staring at it and finally figured out it needed the connection string. Shouldn't an exception get thrown?
