Determining A SQL Server Identity Column Name?
Jul 22, 2009
I'm trying to write some generic code in VB.NET that determines whether or not a SQL server database table contains an identity column and, if so, to return the name of that column.I'm working in Visual Basic 2008 Express and have created a SQL database, "MyDatabase" with 1 table called "MyTable". Within that table, I've got 3 columns, "ID", "Column1" and "Column2". I know, I know... inventive names. Under column properties in the Database Explorer, I've set the "ID" column "Identity Specification" to "yes" and have set the "Is Identity" value to "yes"

I have 2 tables that are related,both have identity columns for primary keys and i am using a vb form to insert data into them,My problem is that i cannot get the child table to get the primary key of the parent table and use this as its foreign key in my database.the data is inserted fine though no foreign key constraint is made.I am wondering if a trigger will do it and if so how. All my inserting of data is done in vb.The user wont insert any keys. all these are identity columns that are auto generated. If a trigger is my way out please illustrate with an example.

I am trying to learn how to program using LINQ to SQL so I downloaded a Tutorial Paper on datacontext and other subjects but cannot get very many of the examples to build with out errors as written in the Tutorial. The code that I am trying to run is as follows.[code]...
Even though I had to make some additions to solve undeclared variables it run up to the db.SubmitChanges() statement which give me an error message declaring the following "Cannot insert Explicit value for Identity column in table orders when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to off. I used SQL Server Management studio to attach the database and ran a query to turn the IDENTITY_INSERT to on but when I detach and try to run my code against the database I keep Getting the same error. I can look at the ord variable and see that the OrdersID Var is set to nothing. I tried to give it a number 1 higher then what was in the database but it still didnt work. I have looked all over the internet and found much information using scripts and querys in SQL management studio to turn IDENTITY_INSERT on and off but none to do it from visual basic SQL to LINQ code.

I don't understand this code (listed below). this code attempts to modify the products table . It creates an update, delete and insert command. I don't understand where it gets the data values from. What I mean is that, how does it know which record to delete. there in no input box or textbox from where it can get the product ID, which would identify which record to delete.[code]...

I am using VB.net (FormView and ObjectDataSource) and Sql Server 2005.
I want to get last inserted @@identity in table on FormView1_ItemInserted
Protected Sub FormView1_ItemInserted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.FormViewInsertedEventArgs) Handles FormView1.ItemInserted
End Sub My issue is that I want to redirect my FormView to readonly mode after FormView1_ItemInserted but for that I need to show the inserted record in readonly mode and that is only possible if I get my last inserted @@identity.

I'm getting an exception every time I try to use my application, and I have scoured the internet looking for answers and not found a thing. So here goes.My application has a listbox with a data templete, and there is an ImageBox in the template that I fill with the avatar of a user who tweets. However, only on certain pictures I get an "Application Identity is Not Set" error, causing a "Value does not fall within expected range". This is the code I am using to set the image source:

Would I be right in saying that when using tableadapters that you can't get the identity value back from the tableadapter when you insert a row intot a datatable then save the table back to database using tableadapter.update(datatable).It will only return the value of 1?
I would like to return the identity from the table but didn't want to have to assign all the parameters manually in code cause theres about 30

I'm trying to retrieve the @@IDENTITY value from an access database after I add a row to it. However, instead of using hard coded connections, I'm using the DataSet wizard. Unfortunately, due to the Jet engine, I can't do more than one command at a time. I tried to select the @@IDENTITY in a separate command but unfortunately, I guess it counts as a different command as it returns a 0 each time.My question is, is there a way I can use the GUI/IDE to retrieve the @@IDENTITY or do I have hard code the connection, command, query values and obtain the value that way.

DATA, TYPE, FILE TYPE, SIZE, DOC TYPE

All,I seem to have stumbled upon a ClickOnce error that stops me from auto-updating. When I Deploy my program using ClickOnce it publishes to the specified location and installs just fine. I can run my program no problem if I activate it from the start menu. However, I have code that registers the program as the default to open a specific file type. Naturally, I want my user to be able to double click on the file type of my choice and have my program open like normal. All-in-All this works.
The problem arises because I need my program to check for updates before loading my program, much like it does when I open the program from the start menu (I set the auto-update check within the ClickOnce options). However, this check does NOT run when the user double-clicks a file type to run my program, it merely skips this step and opens the program. So first I tried to find a way to run the Update manually through code, what I cam up with was this: [Code]
