Connecting Forms To Sqlserver Database Using .net?
Mar 4, 2009
im trying to access sqlserver management studio database using forms in vb.net...m using a button and i want to get access to the database when i click on that button....the code is given below....wen i tried the same code without using forms,this is working fine but it is not working when i use forms....
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim strcon As String = "Data Source=.\sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=employee;Integrated Security=True"
I am using Vb 2005 Express and am creating forms that need to access some MS ACCESS database.Now,I got the code(m thinking its right) but adding a reference from Project Menu is my problem.I simply need to select ADODB from the Reference list but i don't have it as an option.
Dim Conn as new ADODB.Connection Dim Rec as new ADODB.Recordset Conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data source=Projecttables.mdb" Conn.Open()
I'm trying to use LINQ to SQL in Visual Basic 2010 Express.
It allows me to create the .dbml file, but in order to drag items from the Database Explorer window to the design surface, I first have to get my database listed in the Database Explorer!(this is a remote SQL Server database - not a local .mdf)
I already have a good, working connection string to the remote SQL Server database, but that doesn't help me when I'm trying to generate the DBML at design time.
Can anyone tell me how to get my remote SQL Server database identified in the Database Explorere window? When I try the "Add Connection", I am limited to Access, SQL Server Compact, or SQL Server Database File. If I try to enter the IP address & port of my DB Host I get a 'database file does not exist' message. Doesn't seem to want to let me point to a remote DB server...
I have the same table in SQLServer and MSAccess database named "KHang" with fields : ID int identity(1,1) primary keys , MaKH char(4),TenKH varchar(50)
I connect to MsAccess database using oledb in vb.net and fill data to DataSet1. So I want to update it to SQLServer database. I mean, the result will be like this:
This is my code.whenever i entered the data after click save icon, following error will occur. "Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows." using BindingNavigator to store the image in sql server 2000.
I seem to have a major problem. when I add a typed dataset to my project and go back to my sql server and click on the databse I use it doesn't open. the tables and stuff just vanish. using the wizard, it creates this connectionstring:
It connects fine. but after I try opening it in sql server i get an error. It doesnt let me restore or anything. i tried restarting my pc incase the db was locked but it is still gone. now my app cant connect. Just for clarity, is user instance supposed to be set to true. and what is the purpose of it. also when the wizard asks to make a copy of the file that will be copied accross each time I run my project I select No.

I'm trying to write a method in VB.net so that when I click a button it queries the database and returns all the values which match a textbox which is located next to the button. I have no idea how to do this, I assume in the onclick method for the button I will need to pull in the value from the textbox, connect to the database and display the results to a gridview?

I'm having problems connecting to a database. I have sql server 2005 express installed on my PC, and i am using the following to code to connect to it.

Ok I'm finally getting to put on big boy pants and have now moved beyond doing everything in Access (yay me).o here is the problem, can't connect to the Server. created a test button on my form, which is what I usually do with Access so Ican be sure everything is where it needs to be pointing.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim connetionString As String
Dim con As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection con.ConnectionString = "Server=iraq\sqlexpress ; Database=stats ; Trusted_Connection=True ;" Dim com As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand com.CommandText = "insert into users values('" & TextBox1.Text & "','" & TextBox2.Text & "','" & TextBox3.Text & "')"
[Code]...
There are new events happen when i adjust the connection string
con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesWebSite2App_Datastats.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I am a wannabe programmer but quite new, started with VB.net about 1 month ago.I write on this forum because It's the first time that I'm actually stuck. The problem is I cannot find a way to connect to SQL server database I have created and saved earlier on my HD using visual express 2010. I want to find a way to connect using code, not by click and drop. I just hope you won't find my issue too trivial to even answer it.The project is very simple, it just consists of a button that should connect to the db on click.[code]
It works for a database without password. But for a database with password and the string: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:DBB.mdb;Jet OLDB:Database Password=xxx"
I get an error:"Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Where wrong?
i'm fairly new to VB and am doing my second system through it. I am at the point where i want to link a combobox on my form to my access database so that when i click the dropdown arrow a list of surnames from the particular table in my access database appears.
[Code]...
First things first is this code remotely close to doing what i want it to do? I have to use an access database and i am familiar with this particular method of connecting to the database (sending any data to it is easy now). Secondly when the form opens (since the sub is called at load) i get the annoying old "object reference not set to an instance of an object" message.
I have a database(.sdf file) in ppc folder - Storage CardProgram FilesEmpEmployee.sdf. I want to connect this file with sql express 2005. I use this code
Dim Con as new sqlconnection Con = New SqlConnection("Data Source= 192.168.55.101Storage CardProgram FilesEmpEmployee.sdf;Password = 12345;Integrated Security=SSPI")
