using VB 2008 Experess and SQL Compact Server. I find my connection string saved in my application configuration file, but when I refer to it by name I get this error message: Error 1 Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference.

will SQL statements that work in Compact SQL Server also work in the Express Edition of SQL Server?

View 5 RepliesI 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 have a app in visual basic mobile 2008, so i finish but now i need to tranfer the data generate in the in the app mobile to data base in sql server 2008.
View 1 RepliesI am building a VB 2008 Express Edition application.I have built a database (with a single table) using SQL Server Compact 3.5 and have connected it to the project. I am able to view and edit the data using a DataGridView on a second form (tutorial made this very easy). I need to work with the data in the table within the application. how to easily load the entire table into an array or even read the table a row or cell at a time so that I can make all of the data available for manipulation within the application (the tutorials only seem to show how to display the data).

View 4 RepliesI have an internet available SQL Server 2008 R2 instance that is running normally. Clients connect over the internet from vs 2005 and 2010 desktop applications, without issue. My scan gun application can connect to the local instance (if I'm in my office) but not to the internet instance from my Windows Mobile 5.0 scanning device. Connect string = user id=[Code]. This connection string works fine for the desktop apps. It's not a port issue, I have all the correct ports open.

View 3 RepliesSo I created a table and one of the columns is is called currencydate, and has a datetime data type. Within my vb scripts, i've taken a filename and extracted the date components from it. an example filename is WER22402.10. The part in bold is the date meaning 24th February 2010.
I use the following function to extract the date values and convert it to a date type.
Private Function ConvertStringToDate(ByRef FileName) As Date
Dim S As String = FileName
S = S.Substring(4, 7)

View 7 RepliesI am trying to build a stand alone programe in VB.net (Most of my Experience is in VBA) I am using Visual Studio 2008 and have created as part of my project an SQL Server Compact database (Database1.sdf)
The problem I am having is that I can not seem to work out how to connect to this database and retrieve the data into a recordset to work on. I am sure it must be a simple task but I can not get it to work.
I have tried two ways, first is via ADODB connection
Dim strsql As String
Dim rsRecord As New ADODB.Recordset
Dim ConsDataADODB As New ADODB.Connection

show me the connectionString of Vb.net 2008 to Microsoft Sql server 2005?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to do multiple joins within a single query in SQL Server CE. I know that SQL Server CE doesn't support multiple SELECTs but I can't find any information on multiple INNER JOINs. I keep getting token errors on ProjectItemMaster (after the FROM) and the first INNER JOIN. Warning this is a big ugly query used to generate reports.
[Code]...
If I can't uses multiple INNER JOINs I can I break the query down into a number of different queries but I would prefer not to. So it is easier to maintain a SQL Server CE and an SQL Server version of the program.
I know to work with VB.net + crystal report + SQL server.But now i want to work with SQL server compact edition instead of SQL server.When we creating Crystal report it is asked provider in one moment. If we work with SQL server we select "Microsoft OLE DB provider for SQL server".I want to know
(Q1) what I should select as provider.
(Q2)After clicking next, it is asked SERVER. what should i typed. (When i use sql server i typed, "MyName-PC\SQLEXPRESS")
I'm trying to create a Server/Client Sync scenario for my application using Sync Services for ADO.NET specifically the LocalCache custom tool which sets the whole thing up for me.My server DB has 5 Tables, all of which are being synchronized to the client application, which now has a SQL Server Compact DB with the same schema as the server DB. I have a dataset with some custom queries that I use to connect my app with the local database.So far so good.However in my application when I try to fill one of my tables with the table adapter on my form (the default "fill" method) it gives me the following exception:No mapping exists from DbType Object to a known SqlDbType.
However, if I continue and do the fill again, IT WORKS without a problem.
Try
Me.WTSUsersTableAdapter.Fill(Me.WTSMainDataSet.WTSUsers)

View 1 RepliesGreetings, I'm a little bit confused about SQL Server Compact behavior.I have a small app that uses a small sdf file located on a network share.The problem is that while the app itself is working perfectly well using the connection string that points the location of the sdf file on a network drive, when I try to open the same sdf using the Server Explorer I get this error:
SQL Server Compact does not support opening database files on a network share.Obviously, if the app IS working it does indeed support network shares, then why Server Explorer cannot open it?
I copied the database file to a local drive but it's not very convenient. What might be the problem?

View 11 RepliesI have an application that is currently using DAO and would like to move it to ADO.Net. The problem I'm having is that when I do, I cannot do any queries that take variables if the database is Access or SQL Server Compact Edition. For example: SELECT RecipeName FROM tblMasterRecipe WHERE CategoryID = iCategoryID..The database is a local standalone database. Of course if I use the Standard SQL Server I can add parameters just fine using the TableAdapter Query Configuration Wizard. How do I do something similar for Access or SQL Server Compact Edition? The Create new stored procedure radio button is greayed out when the database is Access or SQL Server Compact Edition.
