Access Database Field Manipulation (multiplication Of 2 Fields)?
May 20, 2008
I want to open an Access database and I want to multiply 2 fields between each other. I am a newbie and till now I only have found the way to open the access database and create my Recordsets. So, for example, if I have table Mytbl that is a recordset with 4 fields (columns) and I would like to multiply column 3 with column 4 and put the results in a new Recordset, do I have to do it by multiplying each and every record
First thing I should point out, i have looked all over, especially on DIC for examples, have found some, but none that i could get to work for me. I made a program that inserts data into a DB and then on another form it shows a gridview with the data from the DB. My first issue is im not sure how to insert items into the DB when the DB has an auto number field. I have seen on the internet to just not specify that field and let the DB handle it but its not working for me. This is what i have for that part:
Dim cmdInsert As New OleDbCommand Dim AdoRs As New ADODB.Recordset
I'm looking for a way to combine a field from multiple tables into a single field in a new table. Because the data populating the tables is coming from an outside source, I would prefer not to change the data in the original files. I have a separate table for each year because this is the way the data is provided. The field layout is not consistent from year to year, but each year there is a field that we'll call "score." I'd like to pull the field "score" from each year's table and have it populate a "score" column in a new table along with the year of the data so that all the years' scores are in the same place. Is there a way to do this using Visual Basic + Access?
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.
I am using the code shown below to compare two Access databases with two fields each and write the results to a third Access database. I am getting an error at the "Do While DMReader02.Read = True" line: "Invalid attempt to call Read when reader is closed." Why would the reader be closed at this point if I am using different DataReaders in the two loops?
I am trying to enter a record into an Access database via visual basic programatically.I had this working fine when I had the datagrid bound to the database but now I have decided to do it all at runtime to save on resources at runtime.When I unbound everything and tried running it with my existing code
Try ds.Tables( "tblProduction").Rows.Add(row)
[code]....
This is the line of code that has to have another 30 entries in it.
I have been tasked with writing a program for our yearly reviews. We want all of the information gathered in the form to be submitted to an access database. I have created the form and the database. I can send info to the database but it is put on a new line everytime it is submitted. I would like to check the first column of the table to see if the user login is already there. If it is there I would like to update the information. If it is not there I would like to create a new row. This seems simple, but I can not figure out how to see if the user login is already there.[code]...
VB.NET 2010/ASP.NET 4. I am using a web service which returns a string like this: US,"UNITED STATES",MN,MINNESOTA,"MAPLE GROVE",45.1234,-93.4947,613,763,AMERICA/CHICAGO,NA,55311,"COMCAST CABLE","COMCAST CABLE",COMCAST.NET,"AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC",CABLE/DSL,RESIDENTIAL,3,99,35,96,,
If I split by comma it's usually fine except in the above string I have the following: "AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC" Which contains a comma and splits into two. This I don't want.
How to see if this field (array(15)) contains a comma & if it does to leave it intact into one array field? It's always constant in the same place in the array

I use the following code in vb.net to search across several Access database fields, which works well, is there a way to find out WHICH field had the search data in?

I've been attempting to tinker around with connecting a MS access database to a vb 2008 app. I've successfully connected and can access the data by using the add data sources tab. But what I'm trying to do is create a form that has a (1) single line text box, (1) button, and (1)multi line text box. I enter a name in the single line text box, click the button(search db), and when the info is found, it is displayed in the multi-line text box.
I have finished my database using Dreamweaver ASP VBScript and Access, the only thing left is to create the searching system. My search form works fine when posting just one filed. The results page Recordset goes as follows.
Code:
I need 7 different fields on my search form, this what I did but it doesn't work.
Parameters:
Name: MMColParam Type: Text Value: Request.Form("Ref") Default value: 1
Name: MMColParam Type: Text Value: Request.Form("New_resale") Default value: 1
"Price" is a special one because this is a list menu with different amounts, like 50.000, 70.000, 90.000, and so one. The idea is to make this list menu post to the result page, only to display records under or equal to the given value. less or equal > than 50.000 or 70.000, etc.
how to update fields in an Access database through VB. What I'm supposed to do subtract the quantity of the daily orders from the inventory quantity. My textbook is a little bit vague at this point, because the only way it describes updating the DB is manually through the BindingSourceNavigator. I don't want to enter it manually, I want it to subtract the quantity from the orders table.

I'm trying to create a table in Word using data from a table in Access. There are four fields in the access table that I need. 3 fields are text which I can populate the Word without any issues. However the fourth field is a memo with >255 characters.I'm struggling to come up with the proper code to allow me to populate the Word field with the memo data that has more than 255 characters. The code I have so far is listed below. But when it hits the memo field, it crashes on the line I marked with **. I know it's not text, but I've tried many different field types, but nothing has worked so far.[code]...

Like dash, lap, trap, apple. Currently with the query I'm using it will just go from the beginning of the field. I get "Index was outside the bounds of the array". The code is as followed:

I created a telephone number form where the user enters the telephone number in a text box as (nnn) nnn-nnnn. The first 3 digits in parenthesis are the ISD code, the next three are the area code and the last four are the local number. I need to separate out these three fields of the phone number and display in three separate text boxes labeled appropriately. Now, suppose the user enters the phone number in a text box as a continuous string of 10 digits, where the first three represent the ISD code, the next three represent the area code and the last four represent the local number. I'm lost as how to change this string into the form (nnn) nnn-nnnn. This is what I have
I have made a front-end application in Visual Basic .NET that will store data entered by the user in a backend Access 2003 Database. The application has other functionality as well.If the user searchs for a previous record that has been stored in the Access Database, I query the Database (SELECT ... ) using an OLEDB Connection and then display the records on a Datagrid on my Form. Everything is working fine, however, the Column Headings of the Datagrid are the Field Names in my Database (FirstName, LastName,...) rather than Caption Values (First Name, Last Name,... )
I tried looking up the net, but most of the topics addressing a similar problems use DAO, and I understand that it is not completely supported in VB .NET. I am fairly new to VB .NET and I am not quite sure how to address the problem or where I am going wrong. I tried using FirstName.Caption but that gives a Runtime error (One or more parameters missing from the Sentence)
I am working on an asp.net project in VS2010 using vb.NET (not VBA) designing an interface to allow a user to upload a file to an access 2007 table attachment field. My understanding is that in order to interface with a table with an attachment field you must use DAO to connect to the database so that you can expose the attachment field properties. When I try to open the DAO recordset I am getting "COM exception was unhandled by user code" with a message stating "Too few parameters. Expected 3". The error code is -2146825227 and the stacktrace message is "at dao.Database.OpenRecordset(String Name, Object Type, Object Options, Object LockEdit)"
