I have created a database in VB2008.NET using SQL 2008.
My problem is that while I am in the form where I see the the data, I want to retrieve backwards the related data from Owner and Car eg. the owners name and the car model.
Is there any way to do this in a single row?

View 1 RepliesI 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 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). I created a form and call the data from the two tables fine, once the form is filled I try to add a new row to the third but it will not add the row even though it is telling me that is has. 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
Code:
Private Sub Form3_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Activate()
Dim IDNUM As String = InputBox("Enter Student ID Number")

View 7 RepliesMy 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.
Source: DataTable
Destination: Access Database Table
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.
How to check if string entered in a text box matches a field in a data table.I have a form with two text boxes for users to enter their Username and Password. When they enter their details and click the 'Login' button I want their details to be checked against data in a data table to see if they match or not. I am using an 'if...else' statement but can't work out the syntax to use. 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'.
View 2 RepliesI am doing invoicing using VS2008 VB. I use Crystal Reports to produce the invoice. I create an in memory dataset to pass to Crystal Reports. What I would like to do is save the dataset I sent to Crystal Reports as an audit trail of the exact invoice. It would only be retrieved in the event of a dispute concerning the original invoice. I thought of using the WriteXML, ReadXML. But that would overwrite the existing XML. Does anyone have a better way of saving the XML for future retrieval?

I am trying to retrieve row data from a table in a dataset (dataset name is PatientsDataSet and table name is tblfacilitiesnames).
I am using VB 2008 but the code I entered is from a VB2005 sample so something must have changed in the format.
I am already connected to the database since it opens the connection when the program is run.
Here is the code:
Dim Counter As Integer

Rather than running numerous queries in Access I am trying to write a front end for a DB2 database. The Access database is getting to a size that it is causing Access 2007 to have reliability issues and frequent compacting is required. I have created the Dataset, the Table Adaptors, and the Connection String already, but when I put in a bit of code in to fill the Table Adaptors the remote connection I have to work is going crazy (chewed up about 180MB before I realised it was pulling data from work).
Before I started the project I copied the .accdb to my local PC HDD and I pointed the connection string to it, but it still looks like it is trying to pull data from the work network. If it was a small database I wouldnt be concerned but it is pulling major data every time I run it. I have only 2 out of the 4 Table Adaptors running and it didnt fill them even after 10 minutes.
Here is the code I was trying to run... Server name has been substituted for Server for obvious work reasons.
Because the tables are so large I was looking for a way to pull only the columns I need to from the tables, I tried adding .SOFT_ID to the first line of code but the TA spat the dummy message below...
Value of type 'System.Data.DataColumn' cannot be converted to Application_Name.DS_DB2Database.Server_SOFTDataTable'.
Code:
Me.TA_ServerSOFT.Fill(Me.DS_DB2Database.ServerSOFT.SOFT_ID)
Me.TA_ServerSOFT_FOUND.Fill(Me.DS_DB2Database.ServerSOFT_FOUND)
Me.TA_ServerHARD.Fill(Me.DS_DB2Database.ServerHARD)
Me.TA_ServerREF_SUP.Fill(Me.DS_DB2Database.ServerREF_SUP)
I would also like to pull just the data columns I need to speed up the query.
Note: In case youre wondering why I am not connecting directly to the DB2 database. I currently dont know where it is stored and while leveraging Access I am trying to put a level of separation between the app and the db for the time being, later I will try connect directly.
I have a checked listbox that I've populated with a table that has three columns, Name, Address, Phone - and have done so successfully, but when i display the items in the listbox, i would like to retrieve additional values of the checked items other than the primary displayitem.[code]'we now have an array full of the Name column only, from our checked items 'i'd like to grab the other two as well (not to display in the listbox, but to use elsewhere as variables) 'and keep the checked listbox as a control in the above code, the fill_array variable is only populated with the items displayed in the checkedlistbox - my question is, can i keep the display item the same and pull the other two columns from the datasource, but only for the ones that make the checkeditems list?

I have a database called Houses.mdf , in it is a table called House with ID , NAME , PRICE.
I want to SUM all the PRICES and get a total price of all houses. I also want to display the result in a textbox.
I am confused as to why you have to pass the name of the table in the .Fill() method? As an example, see the following code:[code]I have already specified "NameTable" in the query string, so why do I have to put "NameTable" again in the Fill() command?
