I have created a form that is supposed to fill in the labels with information from a connected database. I have been able to get the PubId field to rotate with the Publishers Names -- dropdown list. However, the rest of the labels do not change as the drop down list name changes.

View 7 RepliesI am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.

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]

I use VB.NET 2010 Express and Windows 7. Access is not installed.The code used to connect database password protected, is:
Public Class Form1
Dim cn As OleDb.OleDbConnection
Dim cmd As OleDb.OleDbCommand
The code is not working. I get this error: "Could not find installable ISAM".
NB: The error occurs only if the database is password protected!For unprotected database, code works without error.
My code is:
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.
