I am using OledDb to create/retrieve/delete data from Access databases. At one point in the solution, I the user adds data to a new table and the table name is defined by the user. The obvious problem with this is that the user could add spaces, characters, and Access/SQL keywords that are not allowed in the table name. Later in the solution, the user should be able to identify their saved table and retrieve it. I have considered the brute force method of formatting the input to remove offending characters and then reformat for the user's view, but that seems like something I would like to avoid. I have also considered placing restrictions on the textbox with masks, key event restrictions, and checks for conflicts with keywords, but I would also like to avoid that. So, my question is, does anyone have a creative solution for identifying a table name with something like 'my name is table number *1'?
[Code] my issue is that now i need two cases, first i need a query that will return the date created and modified of the table and i also need to know if its possible to query a list of table names in the database ordered by date created but that have a certain thing in their names. for example the database contains the following tables: [Code] and what i need the query to return is the tables that contain "Data", settings and employees are for the other functions of the program. so the query should return the 4 data tables in order of date created. but i have no idea how to go about doing that in the query, does anyone know how this is done?
I have a Microsoft Access database that I connect to with the Jet Database Engine, using VB.NET. I want to programmatically get all of the column names for a particular table [code]...
Is this possible in Access? If not, what are my options for getting the column names?
I want to add the table names from a database in sql server to a combobox with vb.net windows programming.
Its a customer accounts database where for instance I add a new Account holder which creates a new Table and when I want to view a specific account holder a want to select that account holder from a combobox that views the Table names.
I have made a Database.mdf that contains a table that Includes 3 diffrent Column Names.
1:"ID" This one i set to an primary key and i have also made it automaticlly put a number in order to the list. Like 1,2,3,4,5 for each data added. Data Type for this is int.
2:"WordCombination" Were i enter my word combination that i want it to look for)
3."TypeofCombination" Were i enter what the program should add to what i typed in texbox1 if it contains the WordCombination.
I want my program to se if texbox1 contains any of those WordCombinations in my database. And if thats true, Then i want it to show whats in the TypeofCombination + the text in texbox1 in texbox2. If i enter "What do you want ?" in Textbox1 i want the program to find that "What do you want ?" contains "you want" like in ID:1 WordCombination:you want. So becuse this is ture it should enter TypeofCombination in this case "Question:" + what i entered in Textbox1 to show in Textbox2.So if i write "What do you want ?" and click start. Textbox2 should show "Question: What do you want ?" If i Write "My name is Jake" and click start. Textbox2 should show "Answer: My name is Jake".If I Write "hello you Hi there Jacob" and click start. Textbox2 should show "Greeting: hello you Hi there Jacob".And i Should be able to add and delete Word Combinations Without having to change the program.

I have two Access database, say database One.mdb and Two.mdb. I want to use VB2005 to export tblCustomer from One.mdb to Two.mdb, and replace the existing tblCustomer in Two.mdb, during run time. I basically want to simulate the export function that is available in MS Access (which can export one table from one Access database to another) with VB2005 during run time. I can think of a way by querying the table to a dataset and then delete everything on the other database before filling the table in that database with the dataset
I'm writing an asp.net page with a simple registration form that connects to my access database and inserts the values in the table.

When I go on my webpage and click submit, it says : Syntax error in INSERT INTO instruction.

I have multiple file upload boxes on a form in my mvc3 application. Request.Files shows 3 files when I put a break point in the below function and look at it.. Problem is other than coding a counter and using a select case I dont see a way to handle saving each file name to the database column it belongs to... Is there away to assign the variable on the fly I guess you could say So that the foreach loop would drop the file in the correct column. Ie handoutFile1, handoutFile2 , handoutFile3, Etc. As it stands the below will overwrite the filename in handoutfile1 every time the loop is gone through. I thought about throwing a counter in the loop and just put a select case on it to assign the db column based on the counter number. Seems like a cheap work around though. [Code]
I have a table in a database that I need to access. At the moment I am trying to get the Table information to go into a dropdown box. I know how to open a database but I don't know how to open a SQL one. Also when I used VB5 I used to "Set" the database to open. When I type "Set" it comes up in the blue letters and then disappears. Has Set changed to something else?
I have an Access database with some table and some queries.Here you see one query which returns 2507 records:I also added this database to a vb.net project.However, if i try to fill the datatable of the query with the specific tableadapter, the datatable stays empty. Also when I click the query in the dataset and choose 'preview data' I get none of the 2507 records:Any idea why he won't load the records into the dataset?
I have an access database (made by other application) that I need to read it. The problem I have is that the tables I need to read do not have the read permission; the access permission is set to "Share Deny Write"; though I can open the database in MS Access and export the table to another mdb where I can read it. Is there any way to automate this, or to set read permission on the database using VB.net? Is there any other way to get the info from table not having the read permission?
How would I do this? I have no code at this time for it, but how could I do this?
I have an Inventory table that contains a lot of Trash Containers (Construction Dumpsters).

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 making a application that has the ability to edit values on a access database table. As a simple example, My table looks something like this:
Order Number Completed 2000 No 2001 No 2002 No
The application needs to edit the Completed columns. I have 1 text box, and 1 button in my form. You enter the Oder Number in the textbox and press the button. The VB application then needs to change the Completed to Yes in the database. Example, I type in 2002 in the textbox and press a button. The application changes Completed to Yes for this order number in the access database and saves/updates the database.
