I am new to ADO.Net and I mistakenly using the dataset as how we use recordsets in ADO., I know that it is possible to create a Datatable which will only reside in the memory and hold data. What I need to create is like this.
1. Create Datatable.
2. Fill it with sample data at least 3 lines.
3. Transfer the data from datatable to database (access,sqlsrvr etc).
i want 2 copy some part of one table into another but getting error @ this line
sqlCmd = New SqlCommand("insert into name_table(name) values ('" & ds.Tables(0).Rows(1).Item(0) & "'", sqlCnn)
I am importing Tables from a Oracle DataBase, using a VB.NET dataAdapter. I use the "fill" comand to add the imported data to a DataSet. How is it possible to define a specific column of a DataTable as PrimaryKey, after the DataTable is already filled with data?
View 2 RepliesI am creating a database in VB.NET for a movie rental place. I currently have three forms;
Member Information
DVD Information
Borrow DVDs
What I would like to do is when I am viewing a member's details, if I click a button 'Borrow DVD for Member', the member's ID number transfers over to the Borrow DVDs table in the Member ID which also would hold some information from the DVD Information table, but I'm sure if i can figure out how to do this firstly, I will be able to apply the same rule and work it out myself.I have been trying to use a query statement like;
INSERT INTO [Borrow DVDs].[Member ID] [IN goodstuffvideos.mdb]
SELECT [Member Information].[Member ID]
FROM [Member Information]
but that has been coming up with error codes and completely not working.
Borrow DVDs table fields are: Borrow ID, Member ID, DVD ID Number, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit?
DVD Information table fields are: DVD ID Number, Title, Rating, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit Member?
Information table fields are: Member ID, Family Name, Given Name, Address, Town/Suburb, Postcode?
The error coming up is; Error in INSERT statement. Unable to parse query text.And under that it says The query cannot be represented graphically in the Diagram and Criteria Pane.

I've been looking at this problem for a while and can't see what I'm doing wrong. I need an extra set of eyes. The business problem that I am trying to solve is the following:I have a table that contains a list of auction items that are displayed in a datagridview. I have another table that has a list of bidders. At the end of the auction I need to update the Winners table with the bidder number and item number of the auction item. To do this, I display all of the auction items and then let the user enter the bidder number and winning bid amount in the datagridview. When finished, the user clicks on Save and the information is pulled from the datagridview and saved in the Winners table.
I have a datagridview (AuctionItemsDataGridView) that uses the auctionitems table from my database as its source. I add the BidderNo, WinningBid and BidderName columns to the datagridview when the form is loaded. There are 3 types of auction items so I prompt the user for the type of auction items to display using a combotextbox (CategoryComboBox). When an auction category is chosen, I load the auction items for that code into the datagridview. I then load the winners from the winners table into a WinnersDataTable (WinnersDT). For each item in the datagridview, I check if there is a corresponding item in the Winners Table. If there is then I populate the BidderNo and WinningBid columns of the datagridview (I also populate the BidderName). So far all of this works. The problem is when I make a change to the datagridview.If I enter a bidder number and winnng bid amount the data is not being saved to the physical database table. To save the data I perform the following:
For each item in the datagridview, check if a Bidder Number is entered. If a bidder has been entered, I check to see if there is a corresponding winners record in the WinnersDataTable for the current item. If yes, I enter the bidder number and winnng bid amount in the table. If there isn't a record, I add a new one. After looking at each item I call the Update method on the WinnersDataTable.
Public Class Winners
Dim BidderDT As DataTable
Dim WinnersDT As DataTable

View 5 RepliesThe title of this thread perhaps does not explain my problem correctly.Actually i am developing a financial software for a company.The software is similar to a banking system. The software is being developed using VB 2008 and SQL Server 2008.The company has its branches located at different locations. They are having a centralized SQL Server at their Head Office.The branches are connected to Head Office using a VPN.Now what we are worried about is when the VPN gets disconnected.For that we will be having a SQL server installed at each of the branches.When VPN is connected the the details entered will be directly at the Head Office database,Meanwhile a program will be executed which will get details from the Head Office database at each of the branches in a XML file.When a branch gets disconnected from the VPN another program will get the XML details into the Sql Server installed at the branch. When the branch is connected again Another application will create a xml file from the local server and insert its details into the HO server.The sizes of the XML are reaching upto around 150 to 200 mb. I am using Dataset.WriteXML and Dataset.ReadXMl. I have tested this on my local machine it is taking upto 30-40 secs.I dont know how much it will take when the actual application is installed. How can i speed things up ? Does anyone have any idea on how i can do the whole process more smoothly and faster?

View 12 RepliesI'm doing a project that requires me to create a book ordering form. I have the books displayed in a listbox named bookselectionlistbox, and when a book is selected, it displays the price of that book in a label named bookpricelabel1. I have a button named addbutton that allows the user to add the book to the shopping cart. The shopping cart is in the form of a combobox named shoppingcartcombobox. Lastly, there is a receipt button that transfers ALL the books from the shopping cart to a seperate label called label3, not just the selected book. The last thing I need to do is have the price of each book also transfer to the receipt section. This needs to be done either on the same label3 on the same line as the book title, or on a seperate label that is adjacent to label3, I have temporarily placed a label there named label5. I am using a case statement for the bookselectionlistbox to say that when a certain book is selected, the bookpricelabel1 will display "$xx". I also have an IF statement under the addbutton label that generates a total price for all the books in the shopping cart, here is an example of the code I used for one of the books:
[Dim visualbasic As Decimal]
[If shoppingcartComboBox.Items.Contains("Visual Basic") Then]
[visualbasic = 55]

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.
I want to track changes in an application. So I've made a copy of the main table in that application, and am accessing both tables in the application using two separate datasets.
My plan was to use the HasChanges method of the main DataSet to get changed rows and then insert those into the copy table. When I run the code I get an error:
A first chance exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in MyApp.exe
Unable to cast object of type 'MainDataTable' to type 'MainAuditDataTable'.
Here's the code:
If Me.DataSet3.HasChanges Then
' 'look for each row that has changes, not new rows
' 'insert that row into the auditing table

I'm developing a project for gathering customer feedback using a Samsung Q1 Ultra, a cheap touchscreen PC. The project consists of two parts: a PC based application that builds the survey and stores the info on an SQL Server, and a survey viewer on the Samsung device which downloads survey data from the SQL Server and stores it on a SQL Server Compact 3.5 database.
My question is, how best can I transfer survey data from the SQL Server to the handheld device's database? Writing a tonne of code to copy data from one database to another seems overcomplicated - is there a handy function or somesuch that I can use to copy data from identical tables on these two separate databases?

How would I go about transfering data within textboxes on 1 page, to the same textboxes, but on another new page.
Basically, I already have coding that caluclates distance time, price per litre of petrol (it's a bus firm company application), and put's it into textboxes within a group box on my page. Basically I just want a bit of coding which will transfer this info, to different texboxes, but on a different new page, the idea is that I can then do fresh coding on that page without it interfering the coding on the current page.

For example, if I have a movie ticket, and says I bought one ticket thats 10 dollars. If I did type all the calculations with tax it should be 10.10 for the 10% tax. This will show on first of my list box. Secondly if I press something like Enter, it will show that 10.10 number and also put it in the other lstbox. I have 3 list box. One to show the current transaction, one to show the history of them and the total amount of all transaction.

I have 2 forms in this application. One form is just a simple SQL statement that is generated into a grid. It displays columns/rows. From there I want to be able to click on a row and have the first column of that row transferred to another form. In the second form I want it inputted into a text box. So, the user doesn't have to copy the record back out of the form then open the other form and paste.
The form opening and closing is not the problem. The problem is getting the data to transfer from one form to another!! I am not sure how to do it.. I have only been coding in VB for a few days and no formal training. I am aware of global variables and would be willing to assign the data to a variable and then have it transferred into the textbox of a the second form.
I do not know how global variables work in VB. This is what I got so far............

I'm developing a management program for a driving school, where information about all students is stored and accessed.

I know it's using TCP, but I haven't got the lesser clue of how i can achieve that. I've looked around, but I haven't found much of how to acchieve something like that. The files both computers would be sharing are text files.
