I am working with a Windows Application that was developed in VS2008 on a SQL2000 database.I am trying to determine the Datasource of a row in an existing DataSet. I have narrowed it down to 2 possible tables that each have a row with the same identical name.
View 8 RepliesI have a vb.net window application project that connect to Access database.
I use dataset for all Forms and Reports.
Now I would like to change back end from Access database to SQL Server 2000 database.
I change the connection string(Data source, Data Provider etc)to connect to SQL Server 2000.
But it is not convenience bcos Dataset Designer codes are still connect with OLEDB Provider instead of Sql Client Provider.
So I can't do my application with SQL Server database.
my question is, is there a way to filter records in the dataset and use that records to fill in the datagridview? for example, a datatable (with 3 columns: ID, StudentName, Gender) is filled with list of students. i have two datagrids in the form namely DatagridView1 and Datagridview2. DatagridView1 is where the the list of student where Gender is equal to M and DatagridView2 is where the the list of student where Gender is equal to F.in my current solution, i am using a loop.

is there a way without using a loop?
Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition.I have a have a DataSet, created from (part of a) Access database. I have tow tables in it (say A and B). When I change something in table A, I need to get data from table B to complete table A.My approach was to use the RowChanged event inside a (Partial) Class of table A. For that to work however table B needs to be shared. (I don't like to refer to an instance.) I got it to work by changing the DataSets designer code, but don't want to do it all over again when the code is regenerated for some reason. So: would there be any way to have these tables shared by default?
View 3 RepliesI made an application that was used by one person only, but now my boss told me that this application it'll be used by all company.I made the application with a dataset that have the datasource in a access database that's installed with the application. The user can add, delete and change values in the database, so i had to put the database in a sql server to everyone see the changes.There's someway to change the dataset datasource/connection string?

I'm working on a very basic VB.net frontend for an Access database and have stumbled upon a problem.
Dim ds As DataSet
MaxRows = ds.Tables("Course_assignmentsDataSet.tblCourse").Rows.Count
i = 0
Private Sub Navigate()
txtCourseReference.Text = ds.Tables("Course_assignmentsDataSet.tblCourse").Rows(i).Item(1)
txtCourseName.Text = ds.Tables("Course_assignmentsDataSet.tblCourse").Rows(i).Item(2)
End Sub
I get the error that Object Reference is not set to an instance of an Object. I think this is because I haven't defined the DataSet as "Course_assignmentsDataSet"- the one I want to use- but I'm not sure how to do this.
I have an access database with 5 tables.I want to fill a dataset with the entire contents of the database.Why can't it roughly look like this?[code]Instead I'm having to create an adapter for EVERY table, tab the table name (why?), fill the schema, and then fill the table.
View 1 RepliesI am looking for an example to export the data from a dataset to an existing excel speadsheet in vb.net 2005?
View 6 RepliesVB2005. I have several DataSets that I create or grab from an external source. One example is
Dim sql As String = "SELECT TOP 30 * FROM myTable" & vbCrLf & _
"WHERE Area='YY' AND CarNum='734EP' " & _
"ORDER BY ProcDate ASC;"
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(sql, myOLEDBconn)
'create a dataset and fill it with the returned data.
Dim ds As New DataSet
da.Fill(ds, "MyData")
Once I have these DataSets I then have to pump them into a specific worksheet in an existing Excel2007 workbook. The connection and interaction with Excel and the workbook/worksheet is already established and that works. But I am stuck in exporting the DataSets
into the specific worksheet.
Note that I have already scoured the web and MS Community site and all code that I have found so far iterates through each and every row and column of the DataSet and then adds that to the worksheet in a cell by cell manner. This is fine and in testing that works. But there has got to be a better way to do this. For even a moderate sized DataSet the exporting just takes a long time. 25 records with 15 columns takes about 10 to 15 seconds.
I've also been experimenting with some scratch code I found that converts the DataSet to an ADODB Recordset and then uses the xlwksht.Cells.CopyFromRecordset function to export it in one fell swoop. I haven't got this one to work just right but it seems in the end it also does an iteration through each and every record and field to convert to the ADODB recordset.
What I am trying to do is update existing records in a dataset with an unbound datagridview. It updates just fine but I have added a simple backcolor change for errors. What I don't understand is it will update fine but throw the backcolor = red at the same time. Am I overlooking something here?

I'm trying to get this working in a test application before adding it to my main project, so that's why the names of controls are the way they are.The errors I'm trying to show are if "Inventory ID", "Cart" and "Shelf" do not match. When they don't match it doesn't update, which is what it is supposed to do. However, if they do match they update just fine but also show the Inventory ID error. If I comment out that ElseIf for the Inventory, it throws the Cart error. It's like the ElseIf blocks get called even if the If statement is true...

View 4 RepliesWhen the user clicks an "Edit" button on my form, I want a box to come up which allows the user to edit a DataTable in a strongly-typed DataSet. What's the best way to do this?
View 2 RepliesI have code running in the Datatable.ColumnChanging event in my dataset. This dataset underlies a form and conventional drag/drop controls are in place for data entry.when the event triggers and runs, I am running code in the form that checks the dataset.HasChanges property. It is showing False. But this is immediately after the ColumnChanging event has been triggered.Okay, I see by others posts and MSDN that .HasChanges will only be true after moving off the row with the changed column. I have also noted lots of discussion about the advanced binding property of DataSourceUpdate Mode, but that does not address this issue.I guess I can do this by checking the state of the row for the binding source. Just seems odd that the event behind the dataset can be triggered and that does not change the dataset.HasChanges property.

I have two Datagrids, One grid has all the customers garments on it with style number and contact length. The other grid has the users who have garment issued to them. the style number is in both grids. I need to loop through the users grid and say if the contract number is 1 from the first grid then the contract date on the second grid will be todays date + 365 days (year contract) I have looked at using a stored procedure and also a for each command but I am just getting stuck with it all.

View 1 RepliesI have a problem saving a dataset which contains rows that i have imported from another dataset. i can successfully view the imported rows in a gridview but i cannot commit the rows back to the database.
View 2 RepliesI have multiple datasets that I would like to combine into one. There is a common ID field that can be associated to each row. Calling Merge on the dataset will add additional rows to the dataset, but I would like to combine the additional columns. There are too many fields to do this in one query and therefore would make it unmanageable. Each individual query would be able to handle ordering to ensure the data is placed in the correct row.
For Example lets say I have two queries resulting in two datasets:
SELECT ID, colA, colB
SELECT colC, colD
The resulting dataset would look like
ID colA colB colC colD
1 a b c d
2 e f g h
ok, I've finally got my test database issues sorted out, however now I need to actually modify my existing report to add the two new fields from my test database. I have made a copy of the report so that I am not modifying the original. I have deleted the two old fields and now want to add my two new fields in there. In the Field explorer window, I see an object called "dataset1" and when I expand it, it is using a view that includes fields from the table that I added my two new fields to.
The problem I see here is that I have gone in and modified the view to include these two new fields in my test database - but again, they are not showing up as selectable fields here. I am just assuming that "dataset1" is somehow pointing to the live database again and that I need to change the datasource location.In my solution explorer, I see an object called "dataset1.xsd" but the properties of that do not tell me much about where it is actually pointing to...

I have some concern about designing Datasets. I was told that it would be good to have a dataset for each table for maintenance purpose. Because frequent change in database tables is expected, having one dataset including every tables would be pain to make the corresponding change in the application.
Q. is it good approach to have a dataset for each table ( I would end up having 30~40 datasets for each db table using Stored procedure) ?
I have a separate project for commonly used datasets. each project include "dataset project" as a reference, and use it by including needed dataset into Forms, classes, etc.
Q. Does this approach makes the whole system to be slower? If I have a set of datasets as a separate project, it would be beneficial, since It will be easier to make a change (I only need to make modification in one place)
it returns date, and value by date.
for ex:
01.01.2009 454
02.01.2009 785

I am having difficulties with Filling a dataset. It seems to be automatically assigning a datatype to the column based off of the first field of data it finds in that column. The column sometimes contains an integer, but it may also contain letters and numbers. If the first field is an integer, it says the fields in the column that contain a letter are DBNull. I'd like for the entire dataset to be formatted as a string/text type since I do not know what the values will be that I'm importing 100% of the time. How do I tell the dataset to expect a certain datatype for all columns and rows i'm going to import?
View 19 RepliesWhat is the impact of creating variables using:
Dim ds as New DataSet
ds = GetActualData()
where GetActualData() also creates a New DataSet and returns it? Does the original empty DataSet that was 'New'ed just get left in the Heap?
What if this kind of code was in many places? Would that affect the ASP.NET process and cause it to recycle sooner?

I have a form that has 1 text box and has 2 queries that locate the data. One is by customer ID and the other is by customer last name. They both work but when the code works and the user enters a customer ID and the query locates it then enters a customer last name it also locates it. If the user enters the same customer id again the query seems to fail. This is why I'm sure I need to add some kind of code to reset the Dataset.
Here's the code in the load sub procedure:
