Accessing A Database With A Datatable?
Mar 18, 2010
I am currently working on a project for school. I have the project all laid out in my mind and everything but there is one thing that stops me. I can not access the data from the database itself ...
(detailed info)
I am using an AMD Athlon x64 bit processor with a windows vista 64 bit operating system. I am writing the program on visual basic 2008 express edition. When I open up the visual basic 2008 express edition and create a new project the first thing I do is go to the view menu and activate my database explorer. I connect to the database in question through the database explorer. The database I am connecting to is an access 2007 database (ive opened up the access 2007 files and they do open and display information properly, in otherwords, they do work) I then put in a listbox and use the following lines of code in a form load event to both A) create the datatable and B) automatically fill the listbox with the database info.
Dim dt As New DataTable()
Dim connStr As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=MEGACITIES.MDB"
[Code]....
When I test the program the listbox does not fill up with any information from the MEGACITIES access 2007 database. Ive tried connecting to the database by establishing a connection through the datasources window. Ive tried establishing a connection to the database through both the database explorer and data sources window. No matter what I try I can not get that information accessed.
Im almost confident that this has to do with my processor being 64 bit.

am just curious to know...which is the better or more efficient way of these two?
Note: tblOD is a DataTable
For dtrows As Long = 0 To tblOD.Rows.Count - 1
dgv1.Rows.Add(tblOD(dtrows)(0), tblOD(dtrows)(1), _

I have a table called Cashiers. In that table are three columns: the primary key, badge and pin.
The user inputs the badge number into, let's say, textbox1.
I want to locate that row and store the corresponding pin number into a variable called pinVar.
This way I can compare it to the input received when it's time for them to enter their pin.

i'm using
Public con As New SqlConnection("Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:\Tramsco\Tramsco\payroll.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;MultipleActiveResultSets=True")
as my connection string and when i run the .exe from the other computer to access the database on the host, it gives me this error:
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:\Tramsco\Tramsco payroll.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be Opened, or it is located on UNC share.
but when i use the computer where the program is, i can run it with no problem.

I want to create and populate populste several databases on my server MySQL. I pretty much know how to handle the data and queries once I have a connection, it is connecting that I don't know how to do. I have read all the help file I can find till I am sick of reading about "Northwind" which doesn't help me a t all. What I need are the three or four lines that establish a connection to MySQL at [URL] I need to be able to establish this connection transparent to the user who needs only to put thier user name and password for the site into a configuration file. Then I need to be able to create a database and give the user access with thier username and password. I know how to create the database but not how to set the username, password and permission.

Is it possible to add, edit, view and delete records using a file only (instead of a database) and .Net 2005 (VB.Net/C#)? The concept is that a file that'll work more-or-less like a database. One can add, edit, view, delete and query data to and from the file. The file, either cannot be opened directly or data inside the file should be in some encrypted form so that even if the file is opened no one can comprehend it. Data inside the file can only be manipulated by a front end application i.e. .Net 2005.

I have saved documents into my SQL Server 2005 database and they have been converted to bytes. My web page is made with VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008 with ASP.NET. The following is exactly what I need to achieve;
1. Allow user select document with a button
2. Select the document from the SQL Server table
3. Allow the user to download this document.
The error I am getting is that Category is set as Byte and it can't be passed through GetDocument because filePath is a String. I think that I am pulling the file path from the database wrong
[Dim Category As Byte() = NothingDim fs As FileStreamDim br As BinaryReaderDim document As Byte()Dim documentFilePath As String
Protected Sub ImageButton1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.ImageClickEventArgs) Handles ImageButton1.Click
myConnection = New SqlConnection("server=ORLA-PCSQLEXPRESS;database=Edpac;

I've just started learning Visual Basic 2008 and I am stuck with accessing a database through VB, I am using the Data Source Configuration Wizard. Everything goes fine until I start debugging, there is no information in any of the fields. However if I use a different computer in the house I can look at different records.

I developed a small application which accesses a MS access database on my computer using VB.net. I developed the program on windows xp 32 bit. At the moment I am using windows 7 64 bit and the program simply will not run. I get a null reference exception when I try to do anything to the database. I have narrowed this down i THINK to the db provider. I was using Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; and tried using Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;. Neither seems to work. The path to my database is 100% correct. This is the error I am getting:
Null reference exception was unhandled.Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Like I say the program runs fine on the windows xp machine. If it helps the access database file extension is mdb.

I am trying to follow this userguide url... to basically build an application that will allow users to connect to my database, from an exe file. I'll try to explain as best i can. The plan is, users will launch an exe file that i have built in Visual Basic(VB) 2010 Express. When they launch the application they will see a 'login screen'.I am following the example guide (see link above), and will customise it once i can connect to the database. For some reason whenever i connect to the database it gives me two errors, the first is if i use the 'debug' mode in VB to test the script (note it doesn't produce any build errors), the second is if i build the application and run it as my users would.
1)Error Connecting to Database:Access denied for user 'mike'@'92.**.**.***' (using password:YES)
2)Error Connecting to Database:Unable to access any of the specified MySQL hosts..The ip address starred out (*) is my local machine ip address.The server is the server in which my Database runs on. 'mike' is a listed user on my 'user' table, the password i use is the password assigned to this user on my table.
3)I've rebuilt the whole VB project, but still no joy, wern't expecting it to as there were no errors generated.
4) I've read, but don't really understand that it could be something to do with my database not being able to be controlled remotely, only locally. I started digging into 'Access Your MySQL Server Remotely Over SSH', didn't really know if i was going completely off the mark, it didn't mention needing to do any of this in the guide i've been following, but just a thought. It might be the case as i've tried to access my database through a programme called MySQL Administrator. I punch in the host,username etc and connect to my database, for some reason it won't allow me to add new users, could this be because i can't control my database remotely? Would this stop what i'm trying to do working?
5) When trying to install the MySQL.Data.dll file i had great difficulty in choosing one and finding it, adding it to my project using the 'Add reference' in VB. Finnally got it how it should be (i think), installed MySQL.Data.dll Ver 6.1.2.0 into my project.

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)

how would I go about making the user access different local SQL databases. As in they use a GUI program to access / read / write data in a database but can also use that same GUI program to do the same to multiple database files.Is that sort of setup easy to integrate into a VB program? or does a VB program by nature only try to access one database? To integrate the open and close dialogs into a VB GUI in terms of different database files, is there much involved?

I have 1 exe and 1 dll. The dll (ClassLibrary1) file is located in the root of a website. In the dll I have a UserControl that populates with data its controls, from a database that is on a website too. The end user gets the exe file. This exe loads the dll and displays the UserControl1 on the form. This is how i load the control from inside the dll (located on the web site), on my form (exe file).
Private _dll As String = "http://www.site.com/ClassLibrary1.dll"
Private _class As String = "ClassLibrary1.UserControl1"
Private WithEvents cont As UserControl
[code]....
The error is "Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed."Note that if i dont load the usercontrol from the web and instead have it locally, there is no problem. The data are fetched from the database (db is on the web) with no problem.The problem seems to be that the loaded assembly from the web (the usercontrol1 inside the dll) has no permission to access anything. I am not trying to access stuff from the user's pc (like file IO), but access a database located on a web server.

I've got a problem whereby I get Permission Denied while accessing a database via OleDB. I know how to unlock this but i'm not permitted to do so. I was wondering if ODBC would work? I'm not sure on the settings around this on my the PC where I'm going to use this application but wonder if this has less security around it. your thoughts until I can test this next week. Or is there another way you may know that I can use a database. (access)

I populate a datatable from a database. The table is sorted by the first column.
Then I add some new rows to the table. After that I sort the table with pgds.Tables(0).DefaultView.Sort = "firstcolumnname"
The new added rows are listed after the originally ordered rows and not in the right order.

I need to make a small application in which I use a datagridview that is populated with data from a table from an SQL Server.In this datagridview I marked the checkbox for adding new rows, also for modifying values, etc So the user should be able to change values inside the datagridview and when the job is finished I have 'Save' button which should Updateall changes in database.For retreving data from the SQL server I use method
Me.Bedarf_tableTableAdapter.Fill(Me.ISB_CLDataSet.bedarf_table)
and for update I use:
Me.Bedarf_tableTableAdapter.Update(ISB_CLDataSet)
I have only one problem - When I clcik on the Save button I receive a message like this:Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows.but only if I change values from existing rows. I am adding new rows the update method is working perfectly.
