View 1 RepliesI need to copy all data from a Table of a Acces mdb (connected with OleDB) to a Table of a MySql DB (connected with ODBC)
I made a working solution, but it's very slow, and so I want to try other solutions to check if they can give me more performance.
The solution connecting to the mdb, using a DataReader, then for each row in Datareader I make an INSERT into the Mysql Table ( before copy I truncate the table to get it empty)
The records are more than 10K and this operation is very slow, and do be onest I need to do the same thing on other 2 tables also very big as this one.
I cannot make a direct sql insert ( as INSERT INTO A in ..... SELECT * FROM B) because the 1 DB has a OleDB conn and the other has a ODBC conn.
So I thought to try to make this operation using TableAdapters and DataSet, but I'm not able to make it working.
The problem is that the Dataset's HasChanges is false
If you need some code I can post, but what I do is following:
Connection to MDb
Create OleDbTableAdapter
Create DataSet

I have tried everything I can to get beyond this error which shows below as <<<<< error here. It is trying to fill a dataset from a data adapter. If I change the SELECT statement to just SELECT * FROM xTable I get the correct number of records in each table. But anytime I try with a more complex statement I get the error message shown below which indicates System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet dataSet. I've completely erased all data and entered a new set of test data so I know there is no problem with relationships. Each table has primary key which is foreign key in other table.

I have two Datagrids, One grid has all the customers garments on it with style number and contact length. The other grid has the users who have garment issued to them. the style number is in both grids. I need to loop through the users grid and say if the contract number is 1 from the first grid then the contract date on the second grid will be todays date + 365 days (year contract) I have looked at using a stored procedure and also a for each command but I am just getting stuck with it all.

View 1 RepliesI have a dataset and want to know the data type of a specific column. The GetType returns datacolumn not string or integer etc.iggy!
View 2 RepliesI need to read data from an Excel sheet as part of a data conversion. Certain columns contain mostly numeric data but may contain some alphanumeric data somewhere in the excel sheet. The problem is, my conversion sees the alphanumeric values as null (or blank. Using the .ToString() method returns ""). To connect to Excel, I'm creating an oledb connection, creating an OleDbDataAdapter, then filling a DataSet with the adapter.
Here's the VB code for connecting:
private _oleadpt As OleDbDataAdapter
private _oleconnection As New OleDbConnection
Dim olecomm As OleDbCommand
'_database comes from a settings file and is the full path to an excel document
Dim connstring As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & _database & ";
Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;"""
[Code] .....
I think the data adapter is determining the datatype for the columns based on the first however-many rows it looks at. It decides the columns with numbers are numeric which is the start of my problem. Changing the formatting of the column in Excel doesn't seem to affect the datatypes in my data set. Is there a way to tell the dataadapter or dataset what type of data to use for a column? Or should I try to cast the data in my SQL statement?
When setting a DataSet row column to Nothing, like row.Date = Nothing, why does it initialize it to the data type minvalue? In this case a date, that gets set to 0000-01-01. The column is set to allow null etc., and if I don't set the row to anything at all, it will leave the column empty. So why does Nothing act this way?
In C# I would've set it to DbNull, I guess, but I'm a tad green on VB.NET - as you might be able to tell. :)

View 2 RepliesI have code running in the Datatable.ColumnChanging event in my dataset. This dataset underlies a form and conventional drag/drop controls are in place for data entry.when the event triggers and runs, I am running code in the form that checks the dataset.HasChanges property. It is showing False. But this is immediately after the ColumnChanging event has been triggered.Okay, I see by others posts and MSDN that .HasChanges will only be true after moving off the row with the changed column. I have also noted lots of discussion about the advanced binding property of DataSourceUpdate Mode, but that does not address this issue.I guess I can do this by checking the state of the row for the binding source. Just seems odd that the event behind the dataset can be triggered and that does not change the dataset.HasChanges property.

View 2 RepliesI started a vb form project and tried to add a data adapter and dataset to the project. Using the "Add new data source" wizard,
I get the error: "Could not get type information for ...dataset" I have tested this with two dB's and get the same error each time. One was the master db and the other was a dB that is custom. The stored Proc's are very simple, the first I tried was

I have multiple datasets that I would like to combine into one. There is a common ID field that can be associated to each row. Calling Merge on the dataset will add additional rows to the dataset, but I would like to combine the additional columns. There are too many fields to do this in one query and therefore would make it unmanageable. Each individual query would be able to handle ordering to ensure the data is placed in the correct row.
For Example lets say I have two queries resulting in two datasets:
SELECT ID, colA, colB
SELECT colC, colD
The resulting dataset would look like
ID colA colB colC colD
1 a b c d
2 e f g h
ok, I've finally got my test database issues sorted out, however now I need to actually modify my existing report to add the two new fields from my test database. I have made a copy of the report so that I am not modifying the original. I have deleted the two old fields and now want to add my two new fields in there. In the Field explorer window, I see an object called "dataset1" and when I expand it, it is using a view that includes fields from the table that I added my two new fields to.
The problem I see here is that I have gone in and modified the view to include these two new fields in my test database - but again, they are not showing up as selectable fields here. I am just assuming that "dataset1" is somehow pointing to the live database again and that I need to change the datasource location.In my solution explorer, I see an object called "dataset1.xsd" but the properties of that do not tell me much about where it is actually pointing to...

I am trying to perform a simple bound connection between an Access database and a text box on a form. This is actually Chapter 18 of the "Microsoft Visual Basic 2008" book.I get the same error message when trying to create my own project "MY ADO Form" or the "ADO Form" project supplied from the DVD provided with the book. I am running the 90 Day Trial Version of Visual Studio 2008 with SP1 and Net 3.5 SP1.
My operating system is the 64 bit Version of Vista with all updates.The error when I try to run the application in the debug mode is:"A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in System.Data.dll"and as a result no data shows up in the text box from the database and the data selection bar is grayed out in the form. The underlying database "Students Data Set" appears to be fine as I have seen the correct data for the fields "Instructor" and "PhoneNumber" prior to running the program and when connecting with the database.
this is more a theoretical question i asked myself.I remembered that BinarySearch of an ordered List(Collection in general) is faster than finding Rows with Datatable.Rows.Find or DataTable.FindByPK with a primary key value.Hence i fill a Datatable from Database in a shared constructor and immediately after that a List(of Int32) that contains all primary keys from that table. Later i will check with BinarySearch if the List contains primary-key values. But because the datatable contains only the PK-Column anyway, i asked myself if there is a way to avoid the huge overhead of filling a Datatable and after that adding all Rows to a List. Is it possible to fill a generic List(or other collection-type) instead of a Datatable/Dataset directly from a Dataadapter?Maybe i'm off the track and there is another way to avoid the Extra-Loop that i'm missing.
The code of filling the DataTable in a strong typed Dataset and the List:
Private Shared w205CorrectSWUpgrades As New List(Of Int32)
Shared Sub New()

Reading bit type sql server db column from dataset
View 3 RepliesIn a vb .net winforms app I am trying out something for "wide and shallow" children of a record. I use strongly typed business objects ( Strataframe ).My plan is to have a number of "child tables" collected in a dataset I drop on the form. they have no correspondence in persisted data, so the dataset is untyped and I am creating the schema through the property sheet for the tables. Each table is the datasource for a datagridview in the interface.
In my proof of concept sample, My main businessobject (CustomerBO) interacts with a SQL Server 2008 table with fields - pk, name, - and a third column which is currently varchar(max) as I considered XML but could just as easily be varbinary(max) if that works better for holding the serialized dataset.
bo.bigfield will be the strongly typed prop I want to hold the byte() array or XML or whatever that represents the dataset for that record.So, the question in a nutshell - how do I convert a dataset to a single datum and reproduce the dataset from that datum. This is my first foray into datasets, datagridviews as well so if there are better ways to accomplish any of that I'm listening.
i am looking to map a dataset of addresses on a map. basically, i want the users to type a street name in my town and be able to see the houses that have signed up already on that street. so a pinpoint should show up on the houses that came up on the dataset.

I have some concern about designing Datasets. I was told that it would be good to have a dataset for each table for maintenance purpose. Because frequent change in database tables is expected, having one dataset including every tables would be pain to make the corresponding change in the application.
Q. is it good approach to have a dataset for each table ( I would end up having 30~40 datasets for each db table using Stored procedure) ?
I have a separate project for commonly used datasets. each project include "dataset project" as a reference, and use it by including needed dataset into Forms, classes, etc.
Q. Does this approach makes the whole system to be slower? If I have a set of datasets as a separate project, it would be beneficial, since It will be easier to make a change (I only need to make modification in one place)
it returns date, and value by date.
for ex:
01.01.2009 454
02.01.2009 785
