I have already binded a data source from Access to my visual basic program but need to add a True/False column to two of the tables. I could do this manually in access and re-bind the sources but that would take up too much of my time so I wanted to know if I'm using the proper code to add a column to the data table directly from VB? Here is the code I want to try but I don't know where to place it?
OleDbCommand = OleDbCommand("ALTER TABLE tableName ADD
FieldName DataType");
(something).Connection = OleDbConnection;
[Code]....
I'm not sure what goes into the "something" parenthesis and where this code must go. I already tried editting through the data designer but although it shows the column in the DataGridView, it does not save any data or the column into the actual access file.
I am getting this error when create new record.
Data type mismatch in criteria expression.
Code:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim com As New OleDbCommand
Dim d As Integer = 0
Dim result

How do I add a row and then refill or refresh a DGV? The row is added/inserted successfully.What I can't work out is how to get the new row to show in a properly refreshed DVG.In one case I keep the old DVG view but the new row is missing.
View 1 RepliesI have a self referenced table it contains Employee information, an employee reports to another employee, I've done this by including a field named ReportsTo as a foreign key that would be filled with the primary key. My first question is when using a strongly typed dataset how would I insert the first record without raising an error. the only solution that I could come up with is to insert an employee with the name NoOne and reports to himself i.e the employee number is the same as ReportsTo, this solution would be hardcoded in my program and only works when there is no records in the table. This is ok as long as I don't delete every employee from the table and try to insert new employees, in this case my insert will fail because the NoOne employee number is "1" and this would violate the index. this case calls for reseting the index each time I delete all the employees.

View 3 RepliesI am trying seek by looping thru a table for the closest match to a search item.
The following code works to a degree. It gets me within say 20 records of the target. I think it works somewhat but it may not be at all.
Code:
Private Sub Find_Item_In_Column(ByVal Search_Field As String)
'Pass a field name to do a string search on
Dim Find_Item As String = InputBox("Enter an Image File Name")
[Code]....
I used the data wizard to establish the connection and I am using VB 2008 Express.
In this case the data field will be a file name and it will be unique. Since the search for string will be a partial of what a file name might be. My expectation is that INCR will match the data row and can then be used to position the TrainImageBindingSource. So far it gets me close, but I am wondering if it is really working at all. I would like to arrive at the closest match (up or down one) found.
Can any one see any glaring errors or point me to an example(s) of similar code snippets?

I would like to know the best, or standard, way to accomplish real-time client updates in a small multi-user application using an access data table as a data source.Specifically, this application will be used by 3-4 people. It uses a datatable which is filled on form load and bound to a datagrid at design time. The datatable is stored on a shared drive. The data table on the shared drive is updated in two ways:
1) Users can update the datagrid which then updates the datatable on the shared drive via the data adapter's Update method.
2) A server application does some work on some text files, periodically updating the data table.
I need the clients to reflect the changes to the data table on the shared drive as closely to real-time as possible. I know that the data table stored in memory on the client is disconnected from the data table on the shared drive, so I must query again to get the updates.
1) Is there an alternvative model I can use which is connected, and which will automatically reflect the updates in the data table on the shared drive?
2) If not, what is the best way to check for changes in the data table (so I can know when to call the data adapter fill method)? I am planning to poll the drive for a change to the .mdb file, raise an event and then fill the data adapter when the event is triggered. I am using this method successfully now to check for changes to a text file in another application, and I know how to implement it?
I have a table adaptor that pulls from the sql database, when I edit the table adaptor query it makes this specific table adaptor not a part of the dataset.

I have an access database with 3 tables, want to collect data from 2 and insert them into a new row in the third (although this seems redundant there are reasons for wanting it that way).

When I open my access table the record is not there. I am new at this and just can't figure out why it won't work, I have tried several approaches the latest is

Would it be possible to search a table, confining to a specific date range based on a date-time column, and get a count of the 10 most used words in a particular var-char column excluding a list of words?All in SQL?Currently I am pulling out the records that match and sorting through the contents outside of SQL, I would think where I can do it directly on the server it would be more efficient.(SQL 2008)

My company is making thousands of products now, every one of them have several test report in excel files. I am thinking about putting all of them into a microsoft sql database,
1. Is it wise to do so? I think a sql database is a lot easier to manage.
2. Can I save or convert the excel file as one data in a table? How could I do it? I only see a image type for data type. Surely I expect to retrieve the excel file through ASP.Net website if necessary.oh, some additional info, every excel file is not big, but it contains pictures inside sometimes.

I should mention that the DataTable contains data resulted by an SQL SELECT query and it's not related to the "targeted" Access Database Table.

I'm writing an app for someone where I am pulling in work orders table information. The information includes: worknum, fname, lname, customername, description, etc. I do not plan to update the data in this table, only to read from it.I'd like to display a combo box for the work order numbers. The user would start typing the information for the work order in and it would autocomplete based on what's in the list. As work orders are displayed in the combo box, I want to update the data in text boxes representing the various fields.
I'm thinking rather than query the database several times, it would be a good idea to create a DataSet with information for the work orders table within the last x months then query the data from that dataset. I know there is a DataSet.Select method, but it looks like it returns the entire row. Is it possible to retrieve just a column of distinct values? For example, I'd like to do a select statement similar to this:
SELECT worknum FROM {WorkOrderDataSet} WHERE date >'{today-x}
The first part in curly brackets is meant to represent the work order dataset I create when first importing the data from Access. The second part in curly brackets will be replaced with variable data to represent a date to reference. I also don't think I'll need distinct because the workorder is unique (edit: is a primary key)Is it possible to retrieve just a column of distinct values from a DataSet with multiple columns? How do I do this?

Im looking to add some information to a table in VB.net.The table needs 2 columns and a number of rows;1 Column needs to have numbers ranging from 1 onwards, basically representing their row number. And 1 more column which just displays any text when a button is pressed.
Each time the button is presed i need the text to go onto a new row.Ive heard alot about a DataGrid, but everything relating to this seems to be based with SQL and I was wondering if there is a differnet tool which would be simpler to use?

I am trying to add a new record to a Visual FoxPro data table using an ADO dataset with no luck. The code runs fine with no exceptions but when I check the dbf after the fact there is no new record. The mDataPath variable shown in the code snippet is the path to the .dbc file for the entire database. A note about the For loop at the bottom; I am adding the body of incoming emails to this MEMO field so thought I needed to break the addition of this string into 256 character Chunks.
