Access Or Update A Field In Underlying Dataset That Is Not Shown On A Form
May 11, 2012
I have a Windows Form application with a form that has an underlying data set. When the users click a particular button, the code clears some fields on the form but also is suppose to update a value in the underlying dataset on a field that is NOT displayed on the form.
In VB6 and VBA this is very easy to do. I simply says Forms!formname!NameOfUnderlyingFieldNotshown and pass it the value. How do I do this in VB.net with a Windows Form and underlying dataset?

I've got a databound query in my application which is querying the "Customers" table in our database.I've created this directly from the ComboBox's datasource creator in the Design view.Various bits of code created in the designer include:
Me.CustomerBindingSource.DataSource = Me.CustomerDataSet
Me.ComboBox_Customers.DataSource = Me.CustomerBindingSource
What I've done in the first stage of developing this feature is to show my users a ComboBox showing a specific subset of the customer list by applying a filter to the BindingSource.
Me.CustomerBindingSource.Filter = "someColumn = 3"
What I want to do on a second pass is to allow the users to type a specific bit of information into a textbox and check whether it appears in Me.CustomerDataSet like so:
Dim x As IEnumerable(Of CustomerDataSet.customerRow) = From cust In Me.CustomerDataSet.customer Where cust.custno.Trim = "test"
If x.Count <> 0 Then
At this point, I have a customerRow object. I want to check whether this customerRow object appears in the list presented to users in Me.ComboBox_Customers via the filtered Me.CustomerBindingSource. Me.CustomerBindingSource does not (directly) contain customerRow objects, it contains Object objects.How do I find out whether Me.CustomerBindingSource contains the customerRow object at whatever lower level?Also Once I've determined that Me.CustomerBindingSource contains the item, how do I select that entry in the ComboBox?

I'm currently working with a gridview that has a huge underlying dataset.I'm almost certain that I saw something about a new facility in Visual Studio 2010/.NET 4, which would improve the performance (e.g. doesn't download all the data on databind, but rather only what data required for current page). My guess would be that it was using AJAX.I didn't need it at the time I saw it, and now I can't find it, even though I've been hunting online for a while.

I have a form in vb8 that is set up as follows:
I have a table in my Access database calledUsers that has a name and a password (encrypted).
Using the toolbar I created aBindingSource with a name of UsersBindingSource and a dataSource ofUsers
Using the toolbar I created aDataset called with a Name and a DatasetName called Users_Dataset
Using the toolbar I created atableAdapter called UsersTableAdapter
I added two textboxes on the form and changed theirDatabindings...Text property to the corresponding field in the Database.
How to now update the database when I click Update. What the program needs to do first is encrypt the Password before saving it. I wrote the code in the TextBox2.Lostfocus event to encrypt the data a place it back into the TestBox2 field. The only samples I find on the net refer to DataGridView controls (which work) but I don't want to use them. How can I get the database to accept these changes as well as changes to radio buttons or comboboxes?

I need to force a DataGridView cell to update the underlying DataTable.I fill a DataTable using my adapters Fill method, then set that DataTable as my DataGridView's datasource. Lets say one of my DataGridView columns is a CheckBox column.If I left-click a checkbox in the first row and then left click a different row in the DataGridView the underlying DataTable_RowChanged event fires, which tells me the first edit I did has gone to the underlying DataTable.If I left-click the checkbox in a row and then right-click the column header to display my context menu the DataTable_ RowChanged event doesn't fire because the DataGridView row is still in edit mode.I've tried Me.DataGridView.EndEdit(),but that doesn't cause my RowChanged event to fire,I need to ensure my underlying DataTable matches the data in the DataGridView, because I am getting a subset of my original table.[code]

I'm looking for a simple example in VB2008 code.I have the Northwind DB installed on one of our SQL servers.
I've worked with the Datagridview on serveral occasions but never used its update,delete or add functions. I've Googled around the web, but could not find a simple example.
Whats the best way to do this and implement it using LINQ?

I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 to create an application (.VB). The application connects to a Microsoft Access 2007 database. When the user starts the application, the application pulls in the data from the database via the "TableAdapter.Fill" method. The user can then add/update/delete records in the form and those changes are saved and confirmed in the database. The problem is when the user close completely out of the application and restarts it, the modifications that were made and originally sent/saved to the database are wiped/deleted. It appears that the dataset in the application never saves the modifications and when the program restarts it uses the data that was originally loaded into it during the design/build phase of the application.

Re DataGridView Sorry don't really have any code - just a whole project. Basically I changed the underlying Access (accdb) Table by adding a new field, The new field shows up in the DataSources section of the Solution Explorer and in the "Edit DataSet with wizard" page but when I attach the binding source to a datagrid view, the new field is not there. I also created a new bindingsource but still not there.I just noticed I've another table where I changed the names to something more meaningful, and the old names are still there and the data for those fields doesn't display in the DataGridView

I have written some functions that I have in a module. In one of the functions I would like to update a table that is in a dataset. I would like to do this with this function and not from a form class where the table could be bound. I need to call the function from various places in the application.

There are lots of questions about this but I've not been able to solve my problem using the answers to any of them (after many, many attempts..)
I'm working in vb.net creating an asp.net web application. I have an SqlDataSource and a GridView on my page.
I want to change the DoNotMail boolean value represented by a Gridview checkbox and automatically update in the database if the checkbox is checked from 0 (False, Will Mail) to 1 (True, Won't Mail) here is the code I used. [code]...
is it possible to do a two way sync on the entire gridview when the user hits a button so you don't have to do an update every time a row is changed? because the user might check the box and then check another box then uncheck a box and it would be a lot of updates...

I am trying to create a form which will be fed by an underlying database to create multiple form fields for each entry in an underlying database table. This is for a program to monitor patients under anesthesia, and prior to surgery, the doctor will choose which monitors they will be using. Then, on the actual monitor screen which will pop up every X minutes, there will be a text box and a check box for each chosen monitor. I am relatively new to VB, so I have tried to illustrate what I am needing but using the logic that I know from my previous life in PHP.
I am using DevExpress's layout control to place the form fields, so that is the code in the middle of the first loop (on_load), and I know that part works, I just need to know how to name the fields and then recover those fields and commit the values to the database. (the text boxes are added to the database, the check boxes are used to determine if an entry is made for that monitor- i.e. at the end of surgery if a monitor is turned off). I know that my syntax for naming the fields is no where close to correct, and it probably would not work in PHP, but I remember doing something like this in a PHP application I built long ago. [Code]

aside from the difference mentioned below, what are other difference the two events might have and how will affect the application as a whole? What is more preferred to use and why?
Form Load:
*Do stuff*
Form shows up on monitor
Form Shown:

I have a form with a list that shows information from a database. I want the list the update in run time (or almost real time) every time something changes in the database. These are the three ways I can think of to accomplish this:Set up a timer on the client to check every few seconds: I know how to do this now, but it would involve making and closing a new connection to the database hundreds of times an hour, regardless of whether there was any change Build something sort of like a TCP/IP chat server, and every time a program updates the database it would also send a message to the TCP/IP server, which in turn would send a message to the client's form: I have no idea how to do this right now Create a web service that returns the date and time of when the last time the table was changed, and the client would compare that time to the last time the client updated: I could figure out how to build a web service, but I don't how to do this without making a connection to the database anyway The second option doesn't seem like it would be very reliable, and the first seems like it would consume more resources than necessary. Is there some way to tell the client every time there is a change in the database without making a connection every few seconds, or is it not that big of a deal to make that many connections to a database?

The end result we're looking for is a slideshow effect where a section of our main form shows a sequence of secondary forms which fade in/out on a timer.We can fade the forms in/out when they're shown individually, but the opacity setting doesn't seem to work when they're shown inside another form. What I've got, for testing, is code that should simply reduce the opacity to 10% after showing the inner form for a half-second, long enough to notice the reduction-except I don't see any change.
Dim f As New Form2()
f.TopLevel = False
Me.Controls.Add(f)[code]........
The opacity change takes effect without refreshing the form when shown 'stand-alone' but I've tried refreshing both the inner & outer form anyway, with no change.

My update command:
Try
Me.Validate()

So I have a form that uses a datagrid with checkbox selections for multiple (read as many!) items.When I click a button labeled "Save to file", all the information on the form, to include the values of the selected datagrid items are then saved to a database. It works great most of the time.However, I have found that if I select more than 3 items in the datagrid, I get an error pointing to the data set and data adapter stating "OleDbException was unhandled - The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add.Try inserting or pasting less data".The code it points to is:
da.update(ds, "TrainingRecords")
In the dataset, I have tried to change the max length of the associated field.It was set at 255, and as long as I stay under that, I seem to be fine. But if I go over it, I get the error. I can change the design I guess to make it less wordy and therefore store less data, but is there an easier way?

- Below code is in the LOAD form event.
- Within TMEMBERS table there is a TOTAMT field.
- Question is: What is the code to read TOTAMT field as I need to do some calculations as part of the LOAD event in this form. Not sure how as this was generated by the dataset wizard and not the tipical Dataset manual definitions.
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'DsMP.TMEMBERS' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.TMEMBERSTableAdapter.Fill(Me.DsMP.TMEMBERS)
- calculation lines will be here.
