Can't Order The Data Properly

Sep 15, 2010

I have a VB.Net 2008/Access 2007 app that I can�t get to display data in an organized way on a listview. The listview displays the data in the order that the data was entered in the products table. In the SQL statement that loads the listview I put ORDER BY SupplierTbl.CompanyName but it doesn't do it. The listview shows the data in the order that the records were entered in the database. So then I was going to settle for if I can get the listview sorted by clicking on the column header.If I can get that to work then that would be acceptable. So I then implemented the sort routine. The sort works and it doesn't.If you click on a column header then all the rows show the information nicely. The database has an OLE object column for storing images. Customer wants images stored in the database not file paths. When you click the listview the image displays in a picturebox.

The proper images display when the listview is clicked when I use the SQL statement below without the ORDER BY. But when I click on a column header and reorder the display it's no good. If you click on a row in the listview the wrong image is being displayed. It displays them in the order as they were in before the sort. All the other columns look good and are behaving except for the Image column. So that then makes me wonder if my original problem with the ORDER BY is directly related with the OLE object column. Is there something about this data type that I need to know to manipulate it in SQL? My reaction is that maybe since this column is resource heavy it goes by different rules. Can someone please tell me what I need to do to make the end result have some order? This is the SQL statement without the ORDER BY:

command.CommandText = "SELECT ProductTbl.ProductID, ProductTbl.PartNumber, " & _
" ProductTbl.AltPartNumber, ProductTbl.Description, ProductTbl.SupplierID, " & _
" SupplierTbl.SupplierID, SupplierTbl.CompanyName, ProductTbl.Category, " & _

Re Order Column Order In A Data Bound DataGridView?

Apr 17, 2010

I have a databound Datagridview. The DGV is bound to a datatable of a strongly typed DataSet created using the wizard. Is there any way to re order the columns before displaying them eg: the Columns are displayed in the DGV in this other Col4, Col6, Col3, Col1,Col5, Col2

But I want to it to show as Col1, Col2, col3, Col4, Col5, Col6?

I realise that the display order followed the Column order in the database table and by extension, the datatable. I have re-arranged the columns in the Database but the Datatable still retains the old order.

Things i already tried: use dispose method of bitmap <= doesnt work (need to write implementation)

Properly Manage Data From XML?

Nov 3, 2010

I am reading data from an XML file. This local XML file will be updated by another application, and I will need to periodically re-evaluate the XML file, and only import new data into a list box. Furthermore, I want to be able to click on a particular item in the listbox, and display the other values about that particular XML entry.

So, I suppose this is a multi part question. What is the proper way to import only NEW data into the program, what is the proper way to store the data, and how do I associate a value in a listbox with the data stored elsewhere?

I've considered multidimensional arrays, but have been told that strings to char arrays and then back to strings is a terrible way to manage the data, but was never offered an alternative.

DB/Reporting :: SQL Query - Use The Data Properly With Different Forms And Different Controls With Queries

Apr 21, 2008

I am working on a Data Survey Project and first I have a few questions about the different types of databases, and second, I need help querying my tables that have relationships.

1. I need a database that is stand alone. It is just the back end for the program. Simply to hold all the data an employee gets while out on a job. So would I be better using access, or SQL Express? I have played with both, but I do not want a large redistribution to my user machines. When I compile and produce this app does the SQL Database still work without installing any SQL Technology? Or do they have to go in after they install my app, and install Express?

2.Overview: I suppose depending on the first question regarding the database, it might change this question a bit, but none the less...I have 4 tables( using Access at the moment) I will be generating Reports based on data in the database. I haven't gotten that far yet. *Project* is the table that holds all the details that pertain to the job and client. It has a "one-to-many" relationship to *Survey*. So for one customer there are going to be many Survey Records. *Project Type* also has a 1-to-many back to *Projects*. Parts is kind of an orphan, but is linked to the *Survey* table with a one to many. So there can be many parts for one survey. I wanted this table for a drop down box, so the user could just simply select what hardware he was using instead of typing all the names and parts.

So in VS 2008 using the Designers and related Query tools, how do I constrain the Survey Data to one Customer? I have one form that opens from a button that is "New Project" and then there are all the *project* fields listed, so the user fills out the info and hits accept and that opens a new form called "frmSurvey" I need to add some code to the accept button to check what type of project is selected from the frmNewProject and then run a select query based on that. How do I write query statements in the code section of the form, without using the Visual Database tools?

Ill stop here, and get these questions out of the way first. If I could just get a handle on how to use the data properly with different forms and different controls with my queries, that would be great.

Server - Data From TCP Client Isn't In Order

Nov 12, 2011

I've been working on this project for about a year now. It's a basic clientserver chat program. After a long time of improvement, I decided to test out the strength of my server.

On the client, I fired off 200 chat messages ("FLOOD# 1"... "FLOOD# 200") to the server as fast as possible. The result: Server immediately crashes. After some slight tampering, I was able to get the server to process 135 of the 200 messages before giving up. It no longer crashes, but something different happens. The data from the client is received in order, but when I pass that message to a function (myForm.OnLineReceived), The data is completely out of order. If I add a slight delay between the calling of the OnLineRecieved function, The messages are in perfect order.

Each message from the client is first encrypted, then encoded in base64. An "-" is appended to the end so that the server can easily find the end of each data "packet".

Server Code:

Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Text
' The UserConnection class encapsulates the functionality of a TcpClient connection
' with streaming for a single user.

I am currently using double data types. The problem I am encountering is that sometimes the user will have to input a value of 0 in the required text box and this creates an error. My question is what data type will allow the user to input 0 and allow the mathematical functions to work properly. Decimals maybe?

Forms :: Formatting Bound Data - So The Phone Number Appears In The Label Properly?

Sep 15, 2011

I have a window form with a label. On the form I have a dataset, bindingsoure, and tableadaptor (all created by the IDE in response to binding the text property of the label) To fill the datatable, the IDE created this: Me.ClientsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Clients) Works fine. The bound field is a phone number, stored in the db as a 10 digit numeric string I need to format this with the standard ()-, and I have a function that will do just that. How can I apply the formatting so the phone number appears in the label properly?

Data In MS Access Database Our Of Order With VB 2010 Interface

Jun 20, 2012

VB 2010 Express + MS Access 2003

today I successfully configured an interface to work with a test database I created in MS Access 2003. The database consists of only 8 records with 10 fields.

I used the basic built-ins with VB 2010 to build the interface in a simple form which shows only 6 of the 10 fields. It all seems to work well, that is the connection string built correctly, and I can run the program and view the individual records. My trouble is that when it goes to the 1st record it's actually the 3rd record in the database. And when I go to the last record it's actually the 2nd record in the database and the next to the last record is actually the first record in the database.

why the program seems to start at the 3 record and shifts the first two records to the end. All the records show up, it's just that they are somewhat out of order.

Columns Appear In Alphabetical Order In Data Source Based On EF4 Model?

Jul 13, 2010

I use Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008 R2. I have created an Entity Model in a class library which I have referenced in a VB Winforms project. I created a data source in the project based on the entity model in the dll. However, all columns in the data source are listed in alphabetical order instead of the native order from the SQL Server database. I cannot locate the cause of this as much as I try.

This might not seem a huge problem, but it is costing me valuable time in rearranging controls dragged to forms and reindexing their tabstop indexes.

Incorporate INI Files For Profiles In Order To Quickly Pull Up Data From One Person To The Next?

Nov 1, 2011

I am attempting to create a basic program and I need to know how to incorporate INI files for profiles in order to quickly pull up data from one person to the next.

Public Class IniFile
' API functions
Private Declare Ansi Function GetPrivateProfileString _
Lib "kernel32.dll" Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringA" _

[code]....

And placed it into a module, which I then wen't to my main program and attempted to place this:

Dim ini As New IniFile(Profiles.ini)
Dim value As String = ini.GetString("Names", "1", "Default Value")

To attempt to retrieve the data, but I get no error or information from it. The ini file is inside the folder of the project and I set the SectionName and KeyValue to the corresponding names. I think I am having trouble with syntax? Not 100% sure. This is the code that I got from the same source as the module for using the module.

Dim ini As New IniFile(FileName)
Dim value As String = ini.GetString("SectionName", "KeyName", "Default Value")

And I adjusted to what I believed would be the proper format.

Parsing A Text File In Order To Extract Data For Subsequent Calculations?

Oct 21, 2010

I am using Streamreader to read a text file containing data such as the following:

IN;SC;PU;PU;SP1;LT;VS10
IN;SC;PU;PU;SP1;LT;VS10
PW5;PU4179,27448;PD4179,29951;PD3244,29951;PD3244,30286;PD5494,30286;PD5494,29951;PD4555,29951;PD4555,27448;PD4179,27448;

The final goal is to use the numbers next to the PU and PD characters to perform specific calculations.

Essentially, I think the code needs to do the following:

1. Read each block of characters ending in a ";"

2. If the block commences with anything other than PU or PD, discard it

3. Extract the numbers in such a way that calculations can be performed. The following is an example:

x y
PU4179,27448;
PD4179,29951;

[Code]....

Essentially, there will be hundreds of these rows and I will need to sum up the deltas so that a specific formula can be applied.

I have tried doing this a number of ways but each seem very inefficient (using text boxes to store/swap data and creating additinal text files are 2 methods I have tried) and so I'm looking for some direction.

Settings In Crystal Reports That Modify Sort Order Of Data Sources?

rptDetails.Subreports.Item("rptSubReport").SetDataSource(theListOfStuff)

and view the report, the list is reversed.So, looking for a workaround, I said, "OK, I'll sort the list backwards before binding it."The list still appeared backwards in the report.So something's happening, and I think it's within the report definition, because I don't know where else the sort order could be changed

VS 2010 - Most Efficient And Speedy Data Structure In Order To Carry Out Calculations

Mar 12, 2012

Which is the most efficient and speedy data structure in order to carry out calculations on it?. I have seen, collections, arrays, list arrays, databases and more. I would prefer to write just straight forward code that will be effective and which I can still understand. What I would like to do initially is have the ability to add new draws to the end of the file, edit the individual files and delete lines if required.

File would then be reformatted to show the corrections made. Some kind of data entry window is envisioned. As far as number crunching goes, I would like to make counts of each number in each of the columns , calculating averages, times since last drawn and so on.

Without being too long winded, I would eventually like to find triple combinations and maybe use them as predictions. So there you have it. This way I won�t have to go off on the wrong path, on a data structure that may not be able, or be too slow for the tasks at hand.
