Automatically Running Database Query In Excel?
Aug 31, 2009
Im wanting to pull some data from our Remedy Server every so often. Right now we're having to do it manually; Data > Import External Data or New Database Query. The connection is called AR System ODBC Connection Source. We have to log into the server and then it pulls the info into the sheet. Im needing even if have to setup a conection myself first to just have this conection run every couple or two and update the excel sheet. We're using excel 03, Remedy 7.

I have an application that performs database queries using "Imports System.Data.SqlClient". I want to display an animated GIF on the taskbar which spins while the query is running. However, during a query the application simply hangs and does not update the GUI until the query has finished, at which point the spinning icon is set to invisible anyway. Is there any way to force the GUI to update while the query runs?

I have a form set up where I want to run the function PopulateGrid on it's Form_Load event. I have initialized the DB connection as follows:
Private Sub Main_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
LoadConfigFile()
cn = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & config("DatabasePath") & ";")
cn.Open()
End Sub
Now, I want to run the PopulateGrid function directly after I connect to the database as shown above. I'm confused as to how I'd use a database query in a module when the database is initialized in my main form. Would simple setting the variable cn to public work?

i am relatively new to VB and i am working on a Visual Basic Program to build a Student Record Book where all the information is stored to an Access 2007 database. If the user is an administrator they will be able to add a new student, update delete etc. I managed to implement INSERT/DELETE/UPDATE functions and also a search button and they all appear to be working fine.

I would like to generate an Excel file using a database query in VB.Net. How can I do it? To be more precise: I would like to "bind" a query (much like binding a query to a GridView) to an Excel file such that the rows in the table occupy corresponding cells in a new Excel file, and save the file to my computer. And then, mail that file to someone. While I can handle the mailing part, it's the creation of such a file that I need help with. Anyone know how to achieve what I want to achieve? PS: I need to do this in VB.Net and I'm using SQL Server 2008.

I am trying to run a query an Access db from VB. The general query which I want to run is
SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientID = ?
or SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientLname = ?
I tried using an input box which captured the user input and pass that variable to the query, but that failed. Then I read about writing a function and using that, however, I keep getting an error which says Function not defined, but when stepping through the code, it seems to work. Here is my function: [Code]

Attached is a sample program which demonstrates the problem I am having.
When the user loads the program they are presented with Form1. If they press Button1 without ticking the checkbox they are presented with Form2 which contains a toolstripmenu.
When they select toolstripmenuitem1 Form3 then appears as a child form of Form2.
The problem comes when they tick the checkbox on Form1. It is meant to load Form2 then automatically select toolstripmenuitem1 to load Form3 but instead it only displays Form3.

I'm trying to edit an existing xls and just overwrite it without a prompt to overwrite. I thought it was something like Excel.DisplayAlerts = False but that's erroring with 'DisplayAlerts' is not a member of excel.
So this is my current closing code that doesn't work.
oBook.SaveAs(ExcelFilename)
Excel.DisplayAlerts = False
oBook.close()
oExcel.Quit()

I am connecting to an Access database and using a parameter query with the LIKE operator to return all rows that match query. The string to search for is taken from a Textbox
sql =
"Select * FROM Allview WHERE Info Like" &
"*" &
CStr(TextBox1.Text) &
"*"
The query does not return any data in vb, but when run from access with same string, there is data returned.The connection to the database is done correctly, as I am able to return data with various other queries.

I need to filter the database based on selected user input at runtime. I have a Drop Down List, GridView, and button on my webpage. The drop down list is bound to the database, it holds a list of product catagories. The gridview is also linked to the database with a query written so that the displayed data is only that which falls under the selected catagory. I want the query to execute when the button is clicked but i dont know and cant find such a command.

I've been using Classic ASP for years and just switching over to .net. So far, I'm not having much fun, but I'm trying and I'm not going to quit. One of the small pieces I am struggling with is running a query then, updating the record.
Set objRS = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.RecordSet")
ConStr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=G:InetpubwwwrootTestPageTheDataTestData.mdb;" & _

I have an Access XP database with two linked tables and a maketable query. I need to first run the Query through VB 2005 and then get the data from the resulting table created. But I get an error when I run the query as follows. I am getting the SQL Select statement from the SQL view in MS access after I create my Maketable query So it should be ok. I am saving the select in a hidden text box on my form.The query text :
SELECT [SWX-Seats].[Asset #], [SWX-Seats].Account, [SWX-Seats].Product, [SWX-Seats].[Seat Id], [SWX-Seats].[Serial #], [SWX-Seats].Qty, [SWX-Seats].[Entitlement End Date], [SWX-Seats]![Entitlement End Date]-[NS-Seats]![Exp Date] AS DaysDiff, [NS-Seats].[Exp Date] INTO

I have a report that displays some sales info. I have a query that takes the data from an SQL Server database and I store it in a dataset. Up to there everything is ok. The problem is that I need to print the same report using Crystal Reports for each row in my query. Is there any way this can be done? I call a form with a ReportViewer tool to display the reports, wich are basic .rdlc reports.

This is how I update a table using DataAdapter and DataSet in VB using SQL Server[code]...
I know that the Fill method does not make sense in case of an INSERT statement, but I am new to this technology and the above statement does the job and updates the table w/o problems. My question is this: If there was an error (say a duplicate key error) how would I know this in my application? Should I be putting the above code in a try/catch block?
Also, if there is a "proper" method for running INSERT statements using a DataAdapter/DataSet combination that does not use the Fill method, please indicate that as well.

i have 2 queries in vb.net with an if clause -
if x=0 then
insert into table1
else
update table1
both queries have 5 fields. now what i want to do is after this insert or update takes place, i need to look at this inserted/updated record and compare it with another table (table2). Especially for update, i have 5 fields in both tables. if any of the 5 fields dont match with table2, then i insert a new record in table 2 which is the updated record in table 1.

I'm calling the following method from a button click event to export a datatable to excel. After the export is completed, the excel application object is quit, released and assigned to nothing. But in reality it's not getting released and stays active unless the entire application is closed. So every time the button is clicked for export, a new excel application object keeps on running. How can I solve this?
The problem doesn't occur if two of the lines from the method below are not used. But I can't omit them as they are really needed. Check the * marked lines.
