Code Failing On Start Up In Access 2010
Oct 4, 2011
I've just been forced (by hurricane Irene) to shift from XP and Access 2003 to Windows 7 and Access 2010 with no time for testing or evaluating changes.All our databases are still Access 2000 format.Our offices were flooded and our servers got moved around, though they're all still named the same things, and in many cases things are working exactly the same.However, I have a database that I can't connect to.It's an Access front end that links to tables in an SQL Server 2005 back end.When I start up this particular database the first thing it does is fail when running code that had been put in to set up ODBC connections when one didn't exist on the computer that was trying to access the data.[code]I didn't write this code.

I created a simple service that does some inventory and records the data to a MySQL server. The service starts just fine when told to from the services administration panel. However, it will not on computer bootup. I get the famous error.
The InventoryService service failed to start due to the following error:The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. I've read that logs can be a problem, so I disabled the autolog...but that didn't solve any problems. I believe it has something to do with the user not already being logged in and attempting to connect to a remote database. So, I added a function to check for internet connectivity before executing any inventory methods or SQL queries. This did not fix it either.
EDIT: I also am receiving the following error in the administrative logs. I create the service dependant upon the Tcpip service, but it still fails.A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the InventoryService service to connect.

I've got a VB2005 application written by a previous coder. I had to move it to a new windows 7 box, since the xp box it was hosted on had catastrophic hard drive failure. It worked fine on the xp box, but it fails on the windows 7 box.
More specifically, I've tracked it back to a specific subsection. It uses the Process library to start pscp, the putty scp command line tool. It has a timer to wait 400 seconds for the process to close, otherwise it stops the process and reports an error.
Unfortunately, on windows 7 it doesn't seem to even start the process, because it does not wait the specified 400 seconds, nor does it report the other error it would give if pscp did start, but failed. Is there a compatibility issue with the process library, or is it some configuration issue?
Update:
Alright, after more testing I've determined that the subprocess is getting spawned, but the parent is not waiting for it to exit.
it seems the VB code myProcess.WaitForExit(40000) is not actually waiting until the process exits. Is this because it can't 'see' the process and believes it has exited?

This is a VB .NET 4.0 WinForms application. There is a mysql data-source involved with this project. The target CPU is set to any. Problem: When running this application on any computer that has VS 2010 installed along with the mysql connector it runs flawlessly. When installing on a virgin system(ie. No developer environment installed) but that machine does have .net framework 4.0 installed and a mysql server without the connector installed the application falls immediately. So to fix the issue I install the mysql connector MSI.
This immediately fixes the issue on the client system and it runs. The problems is that as you can see below from my Installer setup that the 2 needed DLL files for MYSQL are actually included in the installation package so should not need to be installed separately. So Why is it that using that installer from the images do I need to install the mysql connector? Any Ideas?
Below is a screen shot of the References the program uses and from what I believe I do not need to deploy any of those DLL files with my application other than the 2 MYSQL DLL files. So why is this failing? Below are images showing the project references as well as the Installer Files that are being installed in the application folder. As shown in the image the 2 mysql dll files are to be put in the application folder. There is also a screen shot showing each dll's properties for in application folder.

Here's what I currently have:

I've commented out various things to limit it to specifically this command (example, I can swap mklink out with notepad and it works fine). The command runs fine from a DOS window, but can't be found when I use it this way. I also tried using the SHELL command just to test and I get the same results. No idea why it can't be found, as like I said it executes from the command prompt just fine.

I am using VB 2010 Utimate on a Win7 64bit machine. I have an accdb database created through MS Access 2010 (database has a password). How do I go about connecting to it using codes without having to drag a database control on the form, also is it possible to code my form so that it will automatically detect the path of the accdb database? Also I want to view the whole table using datagrid view as well as perform database actions such as add, edit, del, save, search and etc.

First, I would like to add a text box search field to this form (because navigating through several thousand users with arrows isn't going to work). When the search button is pressed, I want the username to be looked for. If found, the form (and each textbox, option button, etc.) is updated with that user. I can then modify the user's information and press save.
Second, how do I access and change information in a database with only code? For example, if I periodically want to check every user in the database to see if they have over "100 points" and if they do, I subtract 10 points from that user.

I am programming with Access 2007 VB.net in Visual Studio 2010.I am trying to have my VB program read the database, extract the .bmp image, and assign it to a PictureBox on the fly (I am actually creating a Group on the fly and filling it with data from the database that are selected by my query. One of the fields is "image". All of my other fields are successfully transferring from the DB to the group box.) My problem is converting the OLE Object to a picture/image that I can assign to the PictureBox.I am using TableAdapters and queries set up in an .xsd.I have a database with an OLE Object field.Here is a code snipit of my database set up:
Dim ta AsNew dsWhiteboardTableAdapters.MonstersTableAdapter
Dim monsterList AsNewdsWhiteboard.MonstersDataTable
Dim monster AsdsWhiteboard.MonstersRow
[code]....
I have tried several ways of getting the image into my picturebox, all lead to errors.

I have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?

First off I am so VB.NET green it's pitiful. I am a AutoCAD Manager and I need to start migrating my VBA code to VB.NET. That being said, I am very familar with VBA,and some asp.net, and trying to use that knowledge to self-train in .net. The trouble I'm having is communicating between the various objects in .net. That being said, here is the first of many issues.
Currently, I am working on a file processing program that checks a user selected folder for .dwg files. I'm attempting to use FolderBrowserDialog activated using a "Browse" button , and can't seem to, first get the dialog to show a folder structure from the FolderBrowserDialog object and second, get the initial dialog code to take the "SelectedPath" method. Error "SelectedPath is not a member of "folderbrowser"
I can post code, but I'm not sure what snippet would be the most informative of my problem.

"How to avoid Linked Table manager message while opening the Access DB."I have asked how to disable Macro (programmatically vb.net) while opening the MSAccess DB and I got some good reference and code samples to do so. But unfortunately I could not able to achieve the expected result. I have tried API to enable/disable Keys (SHIFT) at run time and also use some command-line options programmatically but still it's not working even not getting any error as well.One of my AccessDB contains Macro and it calls a form while opening the DB. And the form has some link to Tables and it creates interrupt asking proper path to the table and halts the application till the user intervention.Other one calls form in start-up while opening the DB. It causes opening of all the forms while running the Application.

I am back - I have my code - it is part of another main form for a child's desktop view. I have it in a console app that works great. My new form has 3 text boxes, and a start button - txtquestions, txtUserAnswer, txtResults and cmdStart - to start the game. I made some slight changes in the numbers, because I needed it for a younger child (6-7), and removed 1 case in the case select (a square root problem too much for a little one). I click on Start button, and it freezes up. I am in Debug, but do not get any kind of problems showing me a bad line of code.
Here is my code:
Public Shared Function Parse(ByVal txtUserAnswer As String, ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Integer
End Function
Private Sub cmdStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdStart.Click
Dim endprog As String = "YES" 'define the answer for not ending the game
[CODE]......................
I am not sure about the loops, but it doesn't just freeze up anymore, as in an endless loop. Now I am getting a stop at the first 'parse'. I actually followed the instructions in a VB 2008 book to do this, and in the help section of Visual Studio with the function and the parsing. But, that is where it stops - I know I had to convert the input into - at least I think I did. The text box for input is just that input. The user's answer is typically a number, except for at the end.

I'm trying to familiarize myself with network programming, and what better place to start than designing an FTP client code library?So far I'm not doing very good. I'm trying to create a method which downloads a file from a remote server to a local file path. To do so, all the examples that I could find declare a byte array that serves as a data buffer. I completely understand the point of doing that, rather than reading and writing byte per byte, but I just can't get it to work. Whenever I set a buffer greater than 1 byte, the output is somehow corrupted (different checksums, media files won't play etc).[code]Because this code does work when I set the buffer size to 1, I feel like there's something going wrong with the byte order. But all of this code is synchronous, so how is that even possible.[code]
