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:

View 1 RepliesI have an app with a password protected MS access database connected to it. lets say the password is "123".
when I run my app i get an error saying that the password is incorrect even thought its not.i have been readig around but am strugling to find a solution.
this is the line that causes the error:
Me.Table1TableAdapter.Fill(Me.PassSafeMianDataSet.Table1)
I can't open an Access database on a mapped drive. However it works if I use the UNC path. how I can get this to work? See the code below for an example of what works and what doesn't...
Code:
mConnString = "provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\tiger-2000dvb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb" ' This works
mConnString = "provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=T:vb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb" ' this does not work
Dim objConn As New OleDbConnection(mConnString)
[code].....
The error message I receive is...'T:vb_mt7MTrackBE.mdb' 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.I've done the obvious and verified that t:vb_mt7MtrackBE.mdb is a valid path.
I've been working on an application for awhile that, basically, allows the viewing and printing of a maintenance database. It allows the user to view basic information for the object and then view the maintenance history. My approach for the maintenance history is simply to have unique tables per object since a history has to be kept for each, however, I'm running into a problem in the application that allows the user to view the general information from one DB and the Maintenance history from the other DB.
Say you have Object ID BG1. I can enter the object ID into a search field, pull the data from the general DB and display the data, but I also need it to pull the information from the maintenance history and display. If maintenance history for this object is not found, then create a new table within the DB, fill the columns with the required fields and allow for the user to edit the history.
Open a Access database (protected with a password) in my application in Visual Basic 2008. I use Oledb connection to link my Application to the database.

View 2 RepliesI have an access 2007 database that I have been developing a front end for in vb.NET for the past 3-4 weeks using vs2008 in a Windows 7 enviroment. Yesterday I started getting an error of "Your network access was interrupted. To continue close the database and then open it again." This happens in the Form Load on the line:
gotData = Me.LeaguesTableAdapter.Fill(Me.LeaguesSeasonsPlayersDataSet.Leagues)
I can go into access 2007 and view all the data fine and in vs2008 I can view the server explorer and browse the tables. However, under data sources if I try and preview the data, I get the same error message as before. What confuses me the most is that the database is not stored on a server is just stored in My Documents. It was origionally stored on my desktop pc but has been copied to the My Documents on my laptop. But as I mentioned previously it has been working fine and has just all of a sudden started throwing this exception by my Try Catch routine. FYI I have tried creating a new DB and importing the tables from the old DB but this hasn't solved the problem either.
When using SQL connections in my program, will I have to open and close the connection and the data reader each time I want to access the database ?

This is probably a pretty novice design question. I'm trying to work my way through a number of requirements and give the users the experience they're looking for.I've written a tool that does big calcluation-type things. It currently consists of a class library and command line tool (separate .NET projects.) We're using an Access database format as the file type because it can keep all the various tables together in one file. A few other items about the application: There are not many users. There are no concerns with scalability. There are not great concerns with updates. Desktop is desired. Not web.Using VB and .NET 3.5 SP1
I now need to develop a GUI front end that will allow typical File/Open and File/Save type operations.Users expect that they can open a file, edit it some, then either choose to save it or close it unsaved without any changes being written back to the file. Saving it would obviously save all changes affecting all tables back to the file.
Does it then make sense to use a temp file for something like a proxy then? To, when a user "opens" a file, copy the source Access file to a local temp file and then use that for the editing session? Then, if the user "saves", copy the local temp file back to the source path?
Update: [tagged with ms-access tag too] Also, I omitted the fact that users would expect typical File / Save As functionality too. I think the design I've put in question in this post is what is traditionally called the Proxy design pattern. Has anyone tried this (successfully!) with Access database files before? Words of caution or advice?

What I am trying to do basically is open an access query in a datagrid view and then be able to make changes to the datagrid and then save it back to the database.When I try to save:
Me.BindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TableAdapter.Update(DataSet)
It says that update is not a member of the tableadapter... Why is that?
I can save my data to access database and in the access database field I set it to date/time.But problem is when I get the value out from the database.. the format is always month/day/year hour:minutes:seconds example today: 5/2/2011 12:00:00..How to get the value into listview becoming May/2/2011 without the hour..Here's my code to get it from database ListView1.Items(i).SubItems.Add(dt.Rows(i)(14).ToString).The second problem is.When I would like to edit, how can the datetimepicker get the listview value ? [code] info: using access 2003 (.mdb) the Date of Birth field has been set into Date/Time.

Created a Dataset and dragged the grid onto the form1.vb.
In SQL Sertver Management Studio I can update update tables using the same credentials as in the VB connection string
WHen I try to update a record in the VB Dataset it returns the error cannot update database because it is read-only
I have checked the files and folder attributes in SQL Data folder. Nothing is set to read only
I have checked SQL Server Database > Properties > Option > State > Databse Read only = false
I don't what I'm doing wrong here but I cannot get VB to update data via the dataset.
Inotice in SQL Server that the DBname now includes the full path "C:PROGRAM FILESMICROSOFT SQL SERVERMSSQL10_50.SQLEXPRESSMSSQLDATAPAYABLES.MDF" and not just the DB name. Is this becuase VB Express requires you to point to the physical DB file?

I'm using VS 2010, and I did a project using VB and a database in Access. The problem is that when I try to put that "application" on other computers, sometimes, is not working. I thought it can be because on these computers they don't have access, but on one computer, is running another app which is using Access and there is no Access installed. How can I check if my application requires Access to be installed or not?
Here is a example of how I did the connection:
Public AccessOLEDBConnString= "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & myfullpath & ";Jet OLEDB:Database Password=password"
Function getConnection() As OleDb.OleDbConnection
[CODE]...
And when I want to have access at the data I'm doing like this:
dim conn as Oledb.OledbConnection
dim sql as string
dim ds as Dataset
