Basically for normal select queries from my database I have no problems as I would put the following and then bind it to a controller to display the iteam, however now I am trying to query sum of a field from the database, but I think it should be different as It's giving a Nullable value:

I'm trying to open a connection and create an SQL statement with two different tables in different Access DBs. Is this possible? I'd like to join the tables in a query.
Is there a great advantage in splitting somewhat large Access databases? Or is it best to just create a large access database with many tables?
I'm looking for the most efficient way to query an Access table from VB.Net. I think throughout the life of a run I'm going to need to query the table ~1,000,000 times. I'm using Access 2003 to hold my data. What I've been doing so far is this:

I am querying the MS Access Database to display the results in a datagridview. This is my
Dim ConnString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=data.mdb"
Dim SQLString As String = "SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = Yes"
Dim OleDBConn1 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(ConnString)
[code]....
The variable Selected from the query statement ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = Yes") is a Boolean in the MS Access Database. However, this statement returns empty result even though most of the values for Selected are Yes. In the access database however, if I enter a 'Yes' for the value of Selected, it shows up as -1 and 'No' shows up as 0. So I even tried changing the query statement to ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = -1") and also ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = 'Yes'") but none of them work. Can you please help me fixing this query because I can't change the database?Also if I change the query statement to ("SELECT * FROM Groups"), then all the data shows in the datagridview, however, the values for Selected column do not display. Instead I see check boxes and I can't click them. How can I display the values correctly?
I have an access database with a table called [yearly stats cape town] This table has the following relevant columns to my query. [CASE NO], [B/W/C] [1ST APP MAG CRT].The goal of the windows form I am doing is to return the total number of unique case where [B/W/C] = C (in custody) and [1ST APP MAG CRT] contains a date longer than 6 months ago from the current system date. To determine the total amount of cases I use the following query.
SELECT COUNT(*) AS [CASE NO]
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT [CASE NO] AS [CASE NO 2]
FROM [YEARLY STATS CAPE TOWN]) derivedtbl_1

I start typing 'app' it should show all words in the suggestions list starting with app, and when I enter a word and press space and start typing a new word it should show all suggestions for that part-word.

My client wanted to have a textbox in the Customer form of the application, which offers the applicable endings to a started street name. He starts to type a street name and the textbox offers a list of streets which start with the char sequence he typed into the textbox. Textboxes have the AutoCompleteCustomSource property and even though a list of common street names will be longer than it could be pre-filled on start, I could just hit a database with a query, populate an AutoCompleteStringCollection and show that to the user.
Now here's the thing: If I make the list populate on every keypress/keydown whatever, the program crashes and throws an AccessViolationException. I've found out that that's because: The control is in the middle of showing the AutoComplete list when at the same time it is being modified, resulting in the crash. When you refresh the Autocomplete List, the control is recreated with new pointers. Keyboard and mouse events (KeyPress, MouseOver, MouseLeave, MouseHover) attempt to reference the old control's pointers which are now invalid in memory causing a memory access violation to occur.
The underlying AutoComplete implementation does not allow for changing the AutoComplete candidate list object once it has been set on a window. To allow changing the list, WinForms destroys the Edit control or ComboBox and recreates it. This causes an exception if the underlying control is destroyed while the AutoComplete window is still use it. I read about this on MSDN, their resolution: Do not modify the AutoComplete candidate list dynamically during key events. I know that you can do this by creating a custom control and such, but can it be done with just pure coding wizardry?

What I am trying to do is allow the user to enter a list of authors in a textbox separated by semi colons. After each author is entered, followed by a semicolon, I would like the autocomplete to work on the next name and so on (e.g., Smith, John; Eastwood, Clint...). I can get the autocomplete to work in a textbox with one name, but cannot seem to figure out how to get it to work on a list of names in a text box.
View 8 RepliesI have an autocomplete textbox in vb.net. It is working fine, but now I need to pop up the window again when the user hits enter or double clicks. So far, I know that when the user hits enter, the keydown event raises with e.kecode = 13. I guess my code would go here. My problem is how do I tell autocomplete to start again after the user hits enter??

In outlook, we are able to enter multiple email addresses in "To" address box. When typing first few chars of an email, the AutoComplete functionality displays the list of possible email addresses. Either we can select from the list or we can continue typing. As and when we type email addresses, the AutoComplete functionality shows the list of possible email addresses for every email address that we type in the textbox (if anything is there).

This is the code I am using to populate a string array to use as an autocomplete source for a textbox.The datatable has 17 rows in it. However, it creates the string array with a length of 18.Just an FYI, if you try to use an autocomplete source that contains a value = nothing, it will cause your application to crash.No, not cause an exception which could be dealt with, but a solid inexplicable, pull your hair out, scream and curse because you cannot figure it out crash. The microsoft message that comes up references the file browseui.dll.The above code as is, will generate an extra array value whose value WILL equal nothing and cause this crash to happen.

I have taken up a task where end user should be able to enter information via vb interface into microsoft Access database. This then will be displayed onto the Datagrid via VB interface. The program needs to be setup in a way that first entry by end user will flash upon 3 hours.
Example:
VB Interface
=========
Basket Number | Number of Trays | Run Type | Time In
1 | 1 | CNC | 15:00:00
[code]....
Values defined within database shows in this datagrid.The Datagrid works fine and I can insert values into the database fine as well however, I am not sure how to setup a timer so that when 3 hours are up the first entry into the database(shown on datagrid) starts flashing.This is needed so that the end user gets an alert when the time is up so that he can take the trays out of the oven.
In Summary: Can we really setup a timmer so that a value in the datagrid will flash at a particular time.Below is the image of an application. Here you can see the data on the datagrid however I want it to flash after 3 hours. So the first entry will flash after 3 hours following the 2nd entry.
