I trying to create an application using vb 2010.This application handles booking of airline customers. i am using ms access 2007 where i have created a table that stores customer information and another that stores and updates seats available in different flying classes. Am trying to develop an interactive application in visual basic 2010 where customers can book. i want to add this data to the database in real time and communicate to customers the seats available,prices and so forth. In otherwards the application communicates with database and updates accordingly. Firstly how do i connect to my database? I tried ADO.net but seems better equiped to work with sql server which i have no idea how to use. Is there a tool that can make my interaction with the access seamless
I am using VS2008 and SQLite. I have created a database and several tables and am attempting to populate the tables with data from arrays.
The following code (example) works fine but stops after it inserts 30 to 50 records. I am running the VB code in debug mode and when it stops, I press pause to see where it is. It stops on "SQLcommand.ExecuteNonQuery()" and when I press continue (F5) it will insert another 30 to 50 records.
I do not get an error message. Is this a timeout issue? How do I keep the loop running to the end of the array?
I have an application that has an Ms Access 2007 DataBase which runns great if access is installed. Is there any code that I can use in vb that I would be able to run access with out installing it.
I am looking for some help in finding the best way to display a progress window for a module I am working on.I have a VB2008 app using an Access 2007 db. One of the MODULES in the Access db does a masterfile update and I want to show the user what is happening in process.
The VB2008 app calls the Access module to do all the work which is FAR FASTER than having VB2008 do all the work.The goal is to have a small window popup and display the progress. Once the process is done, close the window. How would you do this? Use a Access form? That works but it not clean looking at all. Is there something else that might work better?
Something like a msgbox that opens and can be updated while the process runs. Once the process is done, it can be closed. The user will not need to interact with this window - it's just to show the applications progress.
I have used VB (versions 2 - 6) through many years; however, I am crash-course training myself into the VB2008 / VB2010 world kicking a screaming. I would like suggestions as to what SQL database access method should I focus more on in my learning process without making me feel that I'm a million years behind. I know I have WinForms where I can create a datasourse and drag / drop fields or tables on a form to create a grid (not really what I'm looking for).
My trouble isn't so much designing the form but in how I access the database. Theres XML, LINQ to SQL, ADO.NET, and many other methods. Not only do I need to grasp these methods quickly but I also need to know what type of projects I should create. What I mean is...I was thinking that I would design a WinForm app; however, I see that there are WPF apps and others to chose from. This is getting deep. I know it depends on the project that I'm working on. My plans are to write an app based off of either an SQL Express 2008 or SQL Server 2008 database. This first app will be standalone for now but may later become multi-user. I know I'm far behind on my learning curve coming from VB6. I have read a bit on VB2005 / 2008 / 2010. I own both VB2008 and VB2010. I use VB2008 at work. I know ADO.NET is still alive but by what I read online, it's a dying method and is only kept for backward compatibility. XML and LINQ to SQL and other methods are all pretty new to me.
I am using VB 2008, then I noticed that with the Provider.Oledb.12.ACE = database.accdb whatever connection string uses the bin/debug/database.accdb file when I connect my program with a database. Suddenly, a database with the same name appeared on the lets say "WindowsApplication1" folder. Then whenever I try to debug/run, it throws an error saying that it was unable to copy the database from the "WindowsApplication1" folder to the debug folder even though VB 2008 reads through the database from the bin/debug folder. As a result, after I input values when I debug, it resets because VB 2008 copies the database from the "WindowsApplication1" folder.
I am trying to update a element from login table but it not showing any error massageor any thing execution is error free but finally whenever i check the database its notupdated.. i'm using access2007 database with vb 2008
Im new to VB.net. Currently im using visual studio 2008 to make a member registration form and i need to save all data into my access database 2007.
Public Class register Dim datatb As New DataTable Dim constr As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|\KDE.accdb" Dim sqlstr As String = "SELECT * FROM"
I'm trying to connect to a access 2007 database with VB 9 and am having some problems.
I went to Data and then selected add new datasource.
Then I clicked on database and selected Next.
I click on new connection, change the datasource to access database file and then click ok.
It doesn't give me a browser box so I can choose where my access database file is. All it shows me is a connection string label and a text box to the right of it. I tried entering the full path to my accdb file in that connection string box and also just the name of the file itself since it's in the same directory but get the error message "format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0."
Also, when I click on test connection, it always says succeeded even though no database has been selected.
I have a little problem with converting data from a datagridview to my access 2007 atabase.t's been some years since the last time I've opened Visual Studio 2008. So, probably it's something easyo do.
This is my code so far: Dim i As Byte = 0 While i <> dgInput.Rows.Count
I just installed a VB application developed using VS 2008. I installed the application on a Windows 7 machine. The application uses a MS Access 2007 database.When I run the application, an exception gets raised:The "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" provider is not registered on the local machine.But I don't seem to have this problem on a Windows 98 machine.
I have an application that uses an *.accdb file as the back-end database. Connecting to and retrieving data from the access file is not an issue and is working quite well. However, as a precaution, I have the application first check to make sure the database file exists in the application's folder while it loads up. As a convenience, if the database file is not found, then the application creates a new (structured, yet empty) database. The creation of the actual *.accdb file and the creation of the tables is complete and is also working well.
i want a code to connect the access database 2007 in vb.net i made login form having 2 fields name & password also made an access database having nameid and pwd as twoolumns,table name is Reg and access database file name is also Reg
I have been trying for 2 weeks now to get this program to work.I am using VBasic and MS Access 2007 in conjuntion with a software application.the Database has 2 fields
1) Text 2) OLE Object (.jpg)
when I try to preview the data inside the DataSet I can only get the text to come threw, but that isn't the problem...the problem is binding the data to a datasource and displaying the information.I cannot get the database to display the information in FIELD 2
Has anyone succeed to compact an Access 2007 database via VB.net code? The previous methods from JRO don't work anymore and there is no help on msdn on how this could be done for 2007. compacting this database?
Every time I try connecting to an access 2007 database on FTP server, I receive the following error "Your network access was interrupted. To continue, close the database, and then open it again". Actually, I try connecting to the database on the FTP server by setting the value of "Data Source=ftp://anonymouslogin" in the connection string.
Note: I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 - 32 bit edition
I am a VB.net beginner. I am doing simple program that has database connection with access 2007 and i want to store the data (whatever i enter in the textbox) to the database.I did the connection as per the instruction in the msdn(i.e;datasource/database/ms access/selecting accdb file/draging and dropping the fields of the table to the form from the datasource window)I want the code to store data from vb 2008 to access 2007.
so i need to link the database but i want to use the bind source way, i dont like using the oeldbadaptionand all it needs to do is perform a search for records, insert new record and save the record but
