DB/Reporting :: Why Can Not Update A Dataset
May 12, 2010
Today i have been checking out the concept of datasets and i like the way they work except for a minor issue i have with it.The following code should get a databasetable and put it in a dataset and return that set to the user.[code]I submit the table name and it will select it, read it and fill the dataset with it, then return it. And it does exactly that once.If i try to re-read the same datatable it just returns the exact same dataset as the first time yet i am 100000% sure that i changed it .

I am trying to develop a report that displays the result of a query that returns two tables. The first table is always a single row of values, the second should be a grid. I can get a report to display either independently, however it will not allow me put them both on the same report.

I have a dataset that I'm trying to loop through to be able to save any changes made to that dataset and update my database doing so. Is that possible? I've seen that it's possible to do it with datatables but not datasets. If so, can someone offer a starting point for me to learn with?

What is the best place (event/procedure) to use the newest record when navigating from record to record on a form.
For example, I want to do a calculation on 2 text boxes that are bound to a dataset. This calculation will be done each time a new record is navigated to.

We are updating our SQL SERVER 2005 database to reflect the name of our new corporate masters and we need to change the values of the fields.
Once we do so, we will hit those fields with update queries, but right now, my group just needs a listing of the affected tables There are over 250 tables to search, is there a way to iterate through the tables?
I imagine I could search the datatables once I get them, so that part isn't a problem. I just need to know how to set up some code to peek in, record what needs to be changed, close it and move on to the next table.
I've done as much for a single table, but never a load like this.

I have an untyped DataSet: "ResultsData",which contains several tables: eg "EntryList_table".The Parent Form reads lines from a text file, parses the line, and distributes the necessary data to the corresponding data table.I then have several child forms which contain DataGridViews, each displaying the data in a unique format. All of these tables are Read only, and the DataGrid views only need to display the data attached. However, when I open the child forms, the data does not seem to update with each line read from the text file? As they are bound to the DataTables in 'ResultsData', the column headings appear correct, but will not populate the new data.I would like to have a 'Shared' DataSet that can be accessed by each child form (when activated), and will allow continuous modifications as the input lines are read.

putting images in a dataset. I'm developing a windows application that accesses an sql server database in another server, an sql server 2000 database. A table, tblProducts, contains a field called ProdImage with type VarChar. ProdImage contains the path of the image which is stored in the server's file system.

I have a program that I designed that scans my music folder, gets the id3 information, and then in turn inserts the results into a dataset
Here is what I have:
MusicLibrary.sdf with a table called MusicLib
MusicLibraryDataSet
MusicLibBindingSource
MusicLibTableAdapter
DataGridView
So far here is where I am, if I open the database through the visual studio ide, I manually put in a few songs just for testing purposes. When I run the program the DataGridView displays the data I entered. However I can't seem to figure out how to actually programatically add songs to the database. This is what i did so far:
I execute this command for each song scanned:MusicLibraryDataSet.MusicLib.AddMusicLibRow("FileName", "Artist", "Album", "Title", "Track") Then when done execute this command:MusicLibraryDataSet.MusicLib.AcceptChanges()
After I do that how do I then insert these items into the sql database itself so that the next time I load up my program the info is there. I have plenty of sql experience, but am used to doing all this in asp.net, i've never quite gotten all the table adapters and stuff.

I'm writing an application to mimic a cash machine, I have a Form1 on which the user enters their PIN and chooses their card no. from a drop down box.The accountID is passed to Form2 and I know this is successfully seen by displaying it in a simple message box.A data adapter and dataset are used for this to the cards table.However, what I then require is within Form2 to retrieve the balance from that accountID in table Accounts, another data adapter and dataset have been created for this under Form2.I'm trying to get the balance into another variable, and I have written this as follows: [code]I would expect the result of this to be e.g. 100.00 but instead I am getting a response of "There is no row at position 0".

Firstly here's the code and i will explain my problem underneath. [code...]
Now as you can see I have a variable that holds a value member of the combo box Products which is the productID of the current product selected. Then it searchers through the products datatable and once its found the correct product or not it stores the answer in slectedproductrow. next I test to see if selected product row has found the product if it has i then see if the product has already been added to the order by seraching the the customer current order datatable if it hasn't it adds the current information to the order by using selected product row.
Now the problem i get is when i add the same product it still adds the information again as currentorderrow comes back as nothing everytime even if the product has been added before but if it was in the table which it should be it should skip that bit and just go to add the current qtys toghther.Also if i go to add a diffrent product it overwrites the the other one. So i can't store the customer order. Its like i can't store more than one row. By the way I have a datagrid and can see the product get over wrriten.

We have a VB.NET (aspx) website with a login first page. Once the user has logged in and is authenticated they are taken to a single page with a Menu Bar at the top and a report viewer control underneath. When the user has logged in the report viewer is initially populated by a dynamic menu (a menu of links to other reports depending on each user's permission).
Now, on some reports that the user access from the main menu, they like to export the data. The nicely formatted reports export nicely to PDF but these same reports look awful when you export to excel. Further more what is required from the excel version is no formatting and also to include extra columns of data that are available form the dataset but not from the rendered report (for use with importing these expoerts into other systems).
Is it possible to extract the data that is generated from the dataset that renders the report?What I would like to do is obtain this data and create my own excel export option (of which I will put into the page Menu bar at the top of the screen). It is important to just grab the data that is generated because different data is available depending on the parameters the user has chosen.

I have the following code:
public sub PrettyRows()
dim ds as dataset = report.dataset1
dim GroupName as string = ""
[Code]....
The Protected Overrides Sub OnInit() is comparable to the load event in VB.NET.
I am utilizing this event to call my custom sub PrettyRows. This sub will iterate the rows in my dataset and change the first column in each row so that an entry only appears once, This is being utilized to identify what group the row belongs to. The rows are sorted by group and I only wish to display the group name once and I am removing all other references to the group name.

i have a situation where I need to search a table for a specific record that matches an ID number the user will specify. I know 2 methods to accomplish this. The first would involve writing some VB.net code that would call a TSQL statement and return the value through the return parameter. The second method would involve creating a dataset and populating it with a select statement.

K, I'm not sure which forum this question goes in, so I am putting it here.Here's my problem.I have a customer file [CSV] I am importing to SQL. I am using JET to read it into a dataset. I am using a schema.ini file to define columns, because I have one column with up to 1000 characters in it... so I have to define it as a Memo field so it won't truncate at 255 characters.

I am writing a school project in VB2005 and am trying to hook up a second combo box that gets its information of what to display from the first combo box. My application is where a student takes a "test" but they can choose what instructor they want in the first combo box. From there, they choose from a test of what each instructor offers in the second combo box. As of right now, my first combo box works great and my second combo box has nothing in it. Just a note, when I debug, it shows my iUserID value as 0.

I need a simple method for a user to enter as many rows of data as they wish (probably won't exceed 50 in most cases and that's pushing it) and then store that data for retrieving the next time they want to reuse that list. I will also need to read the rows in for manipulating text in a file with those entries.
Would the best method to be to use the DataSet in VB Express 2008 and then use the DataGridView for allowing the display and entry of the data?

I have got problem when using the SQLCommandBuilder class. For me it throws an error saying that the select statement does not return any primary columns.... Which is weird becouse i am sure it does since the select statement is "SELECT * FROM MyTable" I am prety sure that selects everything including the primary column which is set to primary , realy i checked and doublechecked.
Secondly i tried to manually set the column(0) as primary by setting it's property bu no such luck of making it work.
I have these two functions in a class that i instanciate an object from in the main program:
Code:
Public Function GetDB(ByVal DBName As String) As Data.DataSetDim SQLAdapter As SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter = Nothing
Try_SQLdataSet = Nothing
[CODE]...
This Functtion fills the dataset and returns it to my main program where i do lovely stuff with it. (Just as a side note this is a SCADA system and i always need the entire DB which is never bigger then just a few ( 6 ) entries so i must go for "*" ^^). Good part is, this works like a charm, i love it. Now i need to reset a few status bits etc and i assume with the update command. And that is where my joy starts to get stomped on a bit.... The code:
Code:
Public Function SetDB(ByVal dataTable As Data.DataSet, ByVal DBName As String) As BooleanDim SQLAdapter As SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter = Nothing
Dim SQLCommandBuilder As SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder
[CODE]...
Now this would have been a great and small sollution to updating datasets with the server but obviously it doesn't work. There is that pesky error about my table having no primary key and I know it's lying it just want to annoy me :P. But seriously I am puzzeld why that error wont go away and i have exhausted all the tutorials i can find on this.

I have a typed dataset with table adapters. I use this method because it makes it easier to design the layout of my DataGridView.The problem is I have added a new table to my dataset. When I go to the "Data Sources" list view, I can see the new table.However, if I add a new DataGridView to my form then attempt to bind it to my new data table, the table will not show up in the list of tables for that dataset.

I have 2 databases that I am working with. One is a compant customer database and the other is my personal call log. Now I am creating a front end for the Call Log. I was updating my customer list by Importing 2 tables from the customer database, a series of queries would erase all of my info, take all the data from the imported tables and move it into mine then erase the imported tables.
Im trying to accomplish the same in my VB frontend. I can connect and fill datasets from the customer database. I can erase my tables. How do I take all of this data from the newly created dataset and move it over to my empty tables?
