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 want to do something like this:
Code:
'create a dataset and a table
Dim ds As New DataSet
[code].....
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.
database = microsoft access application = microsoft visual studio .net 2003
i have a dataset, i dont know how to hide the rows.
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?
View 4 RepliesAnyone know how to copy a table from one database to another? I know the statement 'INSERT INTO Table1 SELECT * FROM Table2' but I want to copy from one database to another from a server to a PC. Of course, I could do a select statement for all the records and use a loop to insert them one by one, but surely there is an easier way.

Is it possible to have a quick and easy way of retrieving the last 10 records from a table?
Currently what I have been doing is retrieving all the records then one-by-one cylcing through each record until I have the last 10. To me this seems to have a lot of over-head reading each record. I just wondered if there was a quicker way of doing it.
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?
This may seem like a simple problem, but I am completely baffled. I am working on a timekeeping application using Visual Basic 2008 Express and Access 2000.
There are three tables being updated by three separate sub routines. Two work fine, one does not.
In trying to resolve the issue I test one field at a time. The test Access query and the code only reference the one field to change and two ID fields. The program runs but the field is not updated. The table has 42 fields to be updated when I get it working.
The Access query is:
--------------------
UPDATE tPPSummary SET W1MonHours = [@W1MonHours]
WHERE EmployeeID=[@EmployeeID] AND PPID=[@PPID];
[Code]....
When I pause the running program at the intRowsAffected it shows 1 record which is correct.
I am really out of options as tho where to go from here. There are no simple spelling errors in the parameters, there are no error messages and the sub runs to the end.
I am trying to update one table with results from another table as such:
Table A (field, type) : Table B
ID (key) Integer : ID (key) Integer
ParentID Integer : IssueID Integer
Number String : ParentID Integer
: Number String
I need to construct and UPDATE statement that does:
Sets B.IssueID = A.ID When B.ParentID = A.ParentID AND B.Number = A.Number AND B.IssueID = 0
Here is what I have so far but it is producing an SQL syntax error (missing operator)
sqlStr = "UPDATE B SET IssueID = A.id FROM B JOIN A ON (B.ParentID = A.ParentID AND B.Number = A.Number) WHERE B.IssueID = 0
I have also tried
sqlStr = "UPDATE B SET IssueID = A.id FROM B, A WHERE (B.ParentID = A.ParentID AND B.Number = A.Number AND B.IssueID = 0)
This is probably a simple process but I can't seem to accomplish it for the life of me. What I'm trying to do is transfer user inputted data from a Visual Basic text box into an Access database. The database consists of only one table with three fields: First Name, Last Name, and ID Number (auto-increment primary key). The VB code I have so far is this:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[code].....
There are two combo boxes taking user's inputs to return a record in an Access Database satisfying the requirements. This procedure is controlled by a button. However, when it reads "da.Fill(dt, "NETP_ParaList")". It reports error saying that "ArgumentException was unhandled; Object is not an ADODB.RecordSet or an ADODB.Record. Parameter name: adodb" I have no idea what this talking about.

I'm trying to remember how to insert data in to a table. Here is my code
Code:
I get the error

Number of query values and destination fields are not the same.
I also get some error about the Insert INTO part not being right somewhere. Am I doing this how you would do it, or how would you do something like this?
I 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.

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).
ok i have a dataset with two columns one column is "NAME" the other colulmn is called "URL". The entries in the URL column are displayed as linklabels. So how do i clear the table and save the table: I tried this
[Code]...
it works. it clears the table of all rows but when i close and re-open the program the data shows in the table again (i.e. it isnt cleared so how do you fix this.Also how do i put code into the click event for each linklable in the URL columns?
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")
'storing the text entered in a string

I'm using VB studio express 2008. I have created a combo box which the user uses to search a client, how do i program it so that when the client is highlited in the combo box it will show in a listbox with all the details of this client wich has been added previously to the database.
in short..
User browse a client in combo box. Selects a client. Information is shown in a listbox. example. telephone number, address, ect.
I am working with some DBF database files and have an interesting dilemma. I need to search through a table, find duplicates and delete them. Problem... Table doesnt contain a key.
So Table looks like this:
Name, BadgeNum
I need to be able to find instances like this:
John, 10
John, 10
and then delete just one iteration of John, 10.
Is this even possible? A "DELETE FROM TABLE WHERE BadgeNum=10" will delete both.....

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to insert and update from a table in MSAccess I've declared everything: Connection, DataAdapter and Commands.I didn't use the Command Builder instead I supplied my own Queries.My problem is if I add three rows to my table all the three rows in my database have the same values from the first row. It seems like the parameters are stuck on the values from the first row.
