I Downloaded MySQL Connector (the latest, 6.1.X), and i cant really understand how to use it in VB.Net... I Added it to references. All what I need to know is what imports to use, how to set connection with remote server and how do I select and insert to tables.
View 6 RepliesI built a window's app in VB. The app is made to be used worldwide. The app works fine when it is installed on a computer using the same network than the local machine hosting the sql database. The problem actually, is that, when the app is installed on a computer using a diferent network, the connection fails.

I've came across a little problem with my tcp / ip server. My client can connect to it with 127.0.0.1 ( localhost ), and 192.168.0.X, but every remote connection fails to connect.
Here's the connection rituals:
Server
listener = New System.Net.Sockets.TcpListener(System.Net.IPAddress.Any, Port)
listener.Start()
listenThread = New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf doListen)
listenThread.IsBackground = True
listenThread.Start()
Client
client = New System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient(IP, Port)
client.GetStream.BeginRead(readBuffer, 0, BYTES_TO_READ, AddressOf DoRead, Nothing)
i created some buttons to start a remote connection with some server.Private Sub Button15_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button15.Click Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell("mstsc.exe /v 10.100.6.11")End Sub But now the remote connection starts minimized, how can i fix this so it starts maximized,i dont want to use /span because some people use 2 monitors and don't want it "widescreen"

I'm looking to write a custom program in VB.NET / C++ / C# that would allow me to monitor a system's vitals over a Remote Desktop Connection. I'm only looking for tips on how to implement a connection like this in code (eg. is it just a simple object or call to a WScript function? or is it much more sophisticated?). As to the specifics of operation after making the connection, I have that figured out based on another program which shares some similar features. This doesn't have to go through an RDP connection, I'm definitely looking for better ways. Reason I mention RDP is because I currently do this manually over an RDP connection, but I don't wanna have to constantly open the window.

View 5 RepliesI want to build an application, which can remote access to SQL Server in Server Machine.I used to build one, and it also can access to SQL Server in other pc. But when i promote it to become a Server(to become a Domain Controller). My application has never access to SQL Server. I don't know what to do now?
remember: I want to build an application, which is accessing to SQL Server in Window Server(Client/Server Application).
I'm currently designing a client application that connects to a SQL Server 2005 database. My app is being used to display data, allows users to run reports and stats on the data. It is being developed using VB2008. Within my VB2008 project, the connection string to the DB is made via SQLEXPRESS.
The road block that I'm running into right now is that it only allows me to connect to a local DB file (.mdf) only. I tried to connect to a different DB file on a server within the same network domain, and it generated the following error:
"The file "U:Data.mdf" is on a network path that is not supported for database files. An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file U:Data.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share." (where U: is a mapped network drive).
Below is the actual connection string in my code:
"SERVER=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=U:Data.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
The intention is to have the DB reside on a server, where there is another application that runs as a service to collect the data and then populates this DB. Then my app would just connect to the database, and allows users to run reports based on the data in the DB.
I heard that this is the limitation of SQLEXPRESS: it will not allow connection to a remote database. This is true? If so, is there anyway that I can get around this limitation?
The main reason that I chose SQLEXPRESS in the first place is that because of the licensing issue. The company that I work for do not want to make the users of our software app have to purchase additional license for the full-blown SQL Server Enterprise edition. I also heard that SQL Server Enterprise edition does allow you to connect to a remote DB (.mdf) file.
Is there anyway, in a program, to detect if a program is being run from inside a remote desktop session or if the program is being run normal in .NET 2.0? What I'm trying to do is, I create a timeclock application which will clock a person in and out and keep track. But this particular person, I suspect, is remoting into their computer at work, from home, and clocking in and out.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to make a rather simple Visual Basic app with which I can update some tables within my MySQL databases.I've been following this tutorial from page 3 on, as the first 2 pages where on how to initialize a local MySQL database.My MySQL database is on my website, so I thought I had to use the website's name instead of "localhost". Anyways, I now use this code:
Dim connection As MySqlConnection
connection = New MySqlConnection()
connection.ConnectionString = "Server=resload.com; Uid=***; Pwd=***; Database=***;"
[code]....
But it popups (don't now whether that's a real word :p) with the message:Error Connecting to Database: Access denied for user '***'@'my ipaddress' (using password: YES)?
I looking for a solution for how to check if a connection to a remote computer exist or not using vb.net.
I 'm writing a program which will request data from a remote sql server. I need to check if the connection to the remote server exist, before open the connection or run the the sql command.
I would like to test a remote connection to a local Sql 2005 Database first thru Hamachi using a small exe that would be set on the client machine to let me know if the connection was successful or not, in the close future the connection would change to be set thru a VPN but for now i would like to accomplish this by using Hamachi software.i want to code the client .NET exe file to connect to the server, Hamachi gives an IP address and hostname once installed on the "server" machine so i wonder how should i include both in the connection string of the client exe file.
View 1 RepliesI'm having an issue here with making a WMI connection to a remote machine using specified administrator credentials.I have the WMI code inside a function, I pass it the computer's name and it returns the WMI information that I am requesting as a string (or in this particular case, an integer) from the remote machine. I'm positive it works, and returns the information I need using specified admin username/password. NOW, the issue I am having is related to (it seems) calling this function from a backgroundworker. [code] "Value does not fall within the expected range." I literally have no clue why this would throw that exception, yet when I call this function from lets say just a random button on my form, it works beautifully. The key here is that I need my WMI requests/processing to run in the background.
