My program has an access database with a table called "Contacts". This table stores many values. I have a seperate table that stores surveys. Each contact should have a column for every survey, indicating whether or not the survey has been completed. However, this means I need to add columns to the database while the program is running. I tried the following code, which runs WITHOUT errors, but does not seem to actually add the column.
contactsDataAdapter = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM Contacts", frmAdmin.con)
contactsCommandBuilder = New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(contactsDataAdapter)
dtContacts.Clear()
I have already binded a data source from Access to my visual basic program but need to add a True/False column to two of the tables. I could do this manually in access and re-bind the sources but that would take up too much of my time so I wanted to know if I'm using the proper code to add a column to the data table directly from VB? Here is the code I want to try but I don't know where to place it?
I'm not sure what goes into the "something" parenthesis and where this code must go. I already tried editting through the data designer but although it shows the column in the DataGridView, it does not save any data or the column into the actual access file.
Im trying to add columns to my database through VB.NET. I have a MS Access database (MDB format). It has a table in it called "TestTable" and that table has only one field in it "FirstField". It has no data in it yet. I want to add columns to it first and then fill data.
I'm at another wall in my project. I've been trying to get it to add a new record to a table but I got a message that said "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" but I have no clue where the error is popping up. I am also unsure of whether the coding for adding a record will actually work on not.Here is the code for the form with the bits subs that I'm sure aren't the problem removed (as they have no relevance to adding a record);
Imports System Imports System.Data Imports System.Data.OleDb Public Class NewStock
We're trying to work out some code for saving from a textbox to a database field without using DataGridViiew. We have it working using the automated controls that Visual Studio gives us, but if we have a form with text boxes, can we make it so that, on a button click, it dumps that stuff into a field in a table?
I have my project all set up but I can't seem to fiqure how to put the Access Datbase on it. I am running Windows 7 OS and I am working with VB 2008. I select SERVER EXPLORER and connect to a Data base and choose Access Database file. I click browse and I can find anything.
I have a program for school that links to a database. They are listings of real estate and in the browse of the database I have pictures that can be scrolled through as well. The pictures are added to my access database as OLE objects and then just linked to a picturebox to be displayed. However, I'm wanting to add another functionality and allows the user to upload a picture that can be added to the record as well. But I think I'm having a conversion problem.This is what I have right now that is working...but I would like to be able to change that nothing into something.
Public Sub AddToDatabase() CheckType() 'Convert radio button selection to string 'Sends table adapter items to add. 'Input Order: SELLER, AGENT, PRICE, DATE AVAILABLE,
[code].....
Experimenting, I've tried just addressing pictures from my.resources but the errors I get are... "Type System.Drawing.Bitmap cannot be converted into1 dimensional array of Byte". When looking at my dataset as well the datatype for the picture Looks like a series of 1s and 0s.. So essentially I guess what I'm trying to do is convert a picture into an array of bytes so it can passed back?
I'm getting an error doing this. Here is my Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click Dim con As New OleDb.OleDbConnection Dim dbProvider As String Dim dbSource As String Dim dsgames As New DataSet [Code] ..... The error appears on the very final line, "dagames.Update(dsgames, "games"). This is the error: "Operation must use an updateable query."
I have been trying for a month to get a row added to an Access database and can not do it. I have the databindings all set and can select different records, but can not add a new one. I have tried BindingSource.AddNew.row() but can't figure out how to add data to the new row, nor does it show in the database.
I have tried
Dim ds As New myDataSet '<---Change this to the dataset name on your form Dim dr As DataRow dr = ds.Tables("Students").NewRow
[Code].....
But that doesn't do anything at all. No data added, no errors. I have tried updating a datagrid to be told it can't be updated when bound. I look on google and nothing seems to relate to adding data to an access database when bound to the project through the datasource wizard.
I am using OLEDBConnection and OLEDBDataAdapter and connected to the MS-Access databasehow can i add the textbox value to the table in database on a button click and want to display it in datagridview??
I have this datagrid containing a couple of items: Attachment 72953 I have a save button which on click will add both the rows to the database table named MSale. The MSale table contains the seven columns present in the datagrid...
I have a Visual Basic 2008 Windows form application that processes some scores and data. I want to export the data to an Access database. I have created the Access database and connected it to the VB program.I am looking for a simple set of commands or sample code to add records to the database. Perhaps I am oversimplifying the problem, but it seems like it should be so much easier than it has proven to be. I only want to export the data in code; the user should never see the database or do anything to it while the program is running.
Iam trying to link a database to a website. I want the website to allow a user to make a username (OrgID) and password (OrgPassword) and have them apear in my database table (Organizer). This is the code I have so far, but I cannot get it to update the information in the database.

I am using VS 2005 and MsAccess 2003. I am already having some fields in the table, and i want to add more fields from the .NET application. Is it possible to add more fields from the application to the Ms-Access Database. Also it is possible to change the order of the fields from the application?
My aim is to try to add a new user to a access database. Im doing this using from a form named frmRegister. It seems like the code is working perfectly, and I get no expectations that indicate if any errors occurred. However, the user doesn't get added to the database.
The code I'm using is: Public Class Register Dim connectionString As String Dim connection As OleDbConnection Dim OLEDBAdapter As New OleDbDataAdapter Dim OLE As String [Code] .....

I'm using vb2005express for forms (front-end) and ms access database. I have a form with a master-detail setup. The problem I'm having is that when I set the primary key column to autonumber, I don't get the pk value generated in ms access database into my master datatable in forms when a new record is created. Then I tried setting the AutoIncreament to True in the pk column of the datatable in my dataset (forms). This generates a number in my pk column but its not the number generated in the database (since I think because the pk column is still set to AutoNumber). So I change the field property of my pk to Number in the access database and on my dataset (forms), i still have AutoIncrement to True.
This works okay since what it seems to be doing is getting the max value for the pk column when the datatable is filled upon form load. The problem now is that I normally don't do tableadapter.fill(datatable) at form load since I think there would be a performance issue if record counts around millions. What happens now is that when I create a new record, the pk generated is still 1 which will cause duplicate violation when saving to database. I'm not quite familiar with access features but in oracle, what I do is I create a sequence in database then I create a function that gets the next value of the sequence. Then at form load I set the datatable.column.default_value = get_sequence. How do I do this in ms access?
I've been having a problem adding a record to an Access database using datasets and da.update etc. I'm trying to create a simple program that displays the records of a database table in a series of text boxes. I've managed to get my next and previous buttons working correctly and my update button works correctly too. The problem occurs when I try to add a new record. I keep getting a "Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement" whenever I click my add button.
I have a form with textbox controls that are bound to the database. I have a bindingnavigator within the form, when i use the save & delete buttons on the bindingnavigator toolbar they seem to work but when i check my db nothing has changed. I have tried to work around this problem by updating the saveitem code using the code below.[code]
I need to add a new field to an Access database table, the user has filled the table with data, so I have to add the new field but to preserve the old data.

I would like to populat the Listbox collection from a column from a Access database I already created the name of the collection as collections. I can autocomplete/Suggest a Textbox with no issues.[code]
I'm looking to retrieve all the entries from one column of an access database table and copy to an array. this array i will then be randomly selecting values from it to create foootball fixtures. I'm confident of being able to achieve the random side of it but i'm struggling to get the records into the array.
