DB/Reporting :: Field Is To Small For Data?
Oct 30, 2008
This error has me completely baffled. There is no indication (that I ca FinD as to what field won't handle the information. Heres the situation:I am using an Accees query to insert a new record in a table with 49 fields. Of these fields, 1 is an integer, 7 are booleans and the other 41 are text fields. The text fields represent either Time of Day or a Timespan.
My field sizes are:
For time of day 8 digits(example 08:00 AM)
For a time span 5 digits(example 03:30) I will never exceed 2 digits for
hours
I have checked every field in the dtatbase and they are all as noted. I am at a loss as to how to proceed.

Updating an Excel file from a dataset seems to work fine. But if I have text that's longer than 255 characters then I get the error above.I've been working on this for a couple of hours and I haven't gotten anywhere. I've tried messing with the connection string and changing a registry setting, but no luck.

I've been staring at this and can't seem to come up with a solution. I've tried several different methods that i found on the web but to no avail. I'm hoping you all could take a look at the code below and give me some direction as to why I'm receiving the error "The INSERT INTO statement contains the following unknown field name: 'Deposit_Date' . Make sure you have typed the name correctly and try the operation again. Sorry if it's kinda jumbled below
Code:
Dim SQL As String = "INSERT INTO Deposits ( Deposit_Date, Deposit_Time, Location, Miscellaneous, " & _
"Miscellaneous_Adjustment, Dispense, Dispense_Adjustment, " & _
"Replacement_Card, Replacement_Card_Adjustment, Deposit, " & _

My code is as follows:[code]The fields I want to match the textbox strings against in my database table are called 'Username' and 'Password'.

I am creating a small admin reporting tool that gathers certain information on some PCs. Unfortuantly the user that is running the tool doesnt have access and I cant give access to those particular machines. What I have done is created a user on these machines that can get this information.
I would like to then have the reporting tool run certain parts of the code as this user so the information can be obtained, without any intervention from the user running the tool. Can I hardcode this user into the code so that it runs the code as the user?

I have made several posts on here lately regarding master/detail or parent/child data setups but no one has been able to help. It seems like a subject people don't like to tackle BUT I really need help.
I'm having a real hard with the DataView.RowFilter functionality and it is driving me insane.
For the most part, I have the basic master/detail functionality working. When you select a record in the first grid, it shows the correct data in the second grid. When you enter a record in the first grid, you can enter related data in the second grid. I accomplish this by using a dataview and row filter bound to the 2nd grid. When you change the record in the first grid, the rowfilter for the 2nd grid is restated and reapplied.
The problem arises when I overwrite the primary field value in the first grid and the detail records become orphaned. You would think all I have to do is change the ID in the 2nd grid to match the new ID in the 1st grid but this is where I am having problems. I wrote a loop to change the ID of each record currently loaded in the 2nd grid to match the newly changed ID in the first grid. The code is here:
Code:
Dim I As Integer
For I = AuthorizationGroupsDGV.Rows.Count - 2 To 0 Step -1
AuthorizationGroupsDGV.Rows(I).Cells(0).Value = StrEmployeeID
Next
I have used this code before and it works great. It has to step backwards through the grid because when the ID's are changed, they no longer match the RowFilter criteria and they disappear from the grid. They still exist in the dataset. The problem is, while the code "works" the intended effect does not. Some of the records completely disappear from the dataset and do not reload when I restate the row filter against the new ID number.

I want a code line:

I have an application that uses Dataset.WriteXML to create a small backup before data is syncronized to a data store (less than a meg).This application has worked well for 5 years now, and all of a sudden with the installation of XML 6.0 SP2 the XML document is not working correctly.I have multiple tables within a Dataset (Company, Contact, Notes, etc...)When WriteXML is called, the first table should be Company, however, the first table is being named Contact with the Company Data in it. The Notes table is being called Contact and so forth. In other words it's not giving the correct names to the tables in the XML File.This appears to be a bug, which is causing great distress on all the companies who have been using this program.

I have a RDLC report with a list that contains a table. I require a calculated column whose value depends on values from previous rows. Outside of a report I accomplish the same thing using code in a DataGridView's DataBindingComplete method.
From within a report how do I refer to specific cell values from previous rows? embedded code, but I have not had luck (#Error).

I know this sounds simple to the majority of the database gurus out there but I am finding it difficult to find anything related.I am using Visual Studio 2008 VB.net winforms application.I have a form which contains a datagridview. what I want to do by push of a button is set the field "OnHand" either to default or 0. The 'either or' is really for you guys. Which ever one works the best in terms of reducing code or functionality is obviouls prefered.Once the 'OnHand' Fields in every record has changed then I would like to save all the data back to the database'This is more than likely very simple I just cannot find anything that discusses this kind of thing.

I'm using an access database in a program that I'm making for my school, the user is able to select an item from the menu, then it sends it to a list box, there is also a textbox to put a quantity of how much of the item you want. I have a field in my database called Amout Ordered, I want to update it with the amount of each item ordered, and I can't figure out how.

I have written a small project that saves data in a data set, this part works fine, but I have some errors with the code I have written for importing excel data to the datagridview and exporting data from the data grid view.
This is a test project for me to learn how to do this stuff, so I will post the code for the entire project so you can see what I have done from start to finish.

Using VB2008, Access
I have 2 fields defined as date/time (short date).
I need to store dates fields which may at times be blank (null), how do I go about that?
I tried using:date.minvalue and that stores the value of 12/30/1899. I would like the field to be blank until the user enters a valid date.
