I want to make a database of my media collection for my application. I want to create a library for that. Now what i want is that user should be able to add his own song to the database. How can i access mp3 files metadata in my database? How to update that database using my application.
PS: My application is a media player made in Visual Basic using Visual Studio?
I have spent the best part of a day to try and get metadata out of a jpg.
Function getmetadata(ByVal f As String) As String
Dim txt As String
Dim fs As New System.IO.FileStream(f, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read)

I have created an access database which i want to search with vb.net, I tried a few thing but it didnt work as desired.
Firstly the program is suppose to display items in the database base on the criteria selected by the user. what i've succefssfully done so far is I've added a datagrid 2 combobox, 1 (searchcbo) with the columns in the database and the other (searchcbo1) will autoload the items under the column selected in and a button (searchbtn) but i have no clue of the code to put in the button. i also tried the fill method but that didnt work as i wanted to. ultimately i want a combobox with the list of columns and a textbox to enter criteria and of course a search button.
The searchbtn should act as the "WHERE" sql command, e.g. SELECT EmployeeNumber, Firstname, LastName, Phone, Location....etc FROM CallLog WHERE searchcbo.text = searchcbo1.text And display the results in the datagrid.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'CallLogDataSet.CallLog' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.CallLogTableAdapter.Fill(Me.CallLogDataSet.CallLog)

I have a program in which I want to have the user enter two percentages and display the data matching the criteria on a new form. The query would be:
Select *
From Corrosion
Where corrpct1 >= {column in database} OR
corrpct2 >= {column in database}
The way I currently have it written is to display only one row of data. I need to display any number of rows that meet this criteria. My current code is:
Private Sub btnDetails_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDetails.Click
Dim form As New frmDetails()
Me.Hide()
[code]....
1. How can I do my query to incorporate the user entered criteria (in the where statement)?
2. How can I display ALL of the data instead of just one line?

I'm creating a rewards system for school where pupil earn points for good behavior which they can then use to purchase things like a packet of pens. (They can also have points deducted for bad behavior). I've created all the forms and now its just getting the data in from the Access database. This is what I need to do. On my form called detailsPupil it shows various information such as Name, email address, last login etc. This form is loaded once the pupil has logged in.
Private Sub btnLogin_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLogin.Click
Dim Login = Me.StudentTableAdapter1.UsernamePasswordString(txtUsername.Text, txtPassword.Text, cboPermissions.Text)
If Login Is Nothing Then
MsgBox("Incorrect Username or Password")
[Code] .....
That all works but I'm having problems working out how to get the information like Name and email address into their places. This is what I have so far on my detailsPupil form.
Public Class detailsPupil
Private Sub btnLogOut_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLogOut.Click
Login.Show()
[Code] .....
So to sum up I need to run a query which searches the DB using the Username which is obtained from the login form and then displays the Student Name in txtName, Email address in txtEmail etc...
I am at a stand still on this one. I know how to connect and add to the database, I just don't know how to retrieve the information so that a user can see it! If anyone could help me with code or another example.

I have imported the system.io and system.data.oledb at class level and I hav generated this code from what I can find in forums online, but I get "Parameter is not valid" and no more help than that...
1) Add a new record - I can currently add records text to access database, but not images.
2) Get the ID [URL]I'm not sure how to integrate this code into my code. I am stuck here.
3) Save the image in the filesystem using the ID as a filename - I can save the upload an image and save the image to a directory on my computer, but I am unable to name the image that of the ID of the access database.
4) Update the database to put the filename in the record you just created. - I am unable to do this as well (obviously).

View 5 RepliesI have two Access database, say database One.mdb and Two.mdb. I want to use VB2005 to export tblCustomer from One.mdb to Two.mdb, and replace the existing tblCustomer in Two.mdb, during run time. I basically want to simulate the export function that is available in MS Access (which can export one table from one Access database to another) with VB2005 during run time. I can think of a way by querying the table to a dataset and then delete everything on the other database before filling the table in that database with the dataset
View 1 RepliesI am trying to import data from an access database to a access database that my project uses I am having problems with combo box fields in the database with the data. I want to import what is displayed instead of the numerical key value. Example: The combo box displays employee names but the value stored is the key value from the employee table so instead of importing John Doe it imports 2 is there a way to make the actual name instead of the number?

View 2 RepliesI am currently trying to create a simple application that will show me the metadata for a wmv file (I'm not trying to get the data for any other video file type at the moment) but I am having some trouble finding a way of doing this.
I have Googled and I have found some downloads that you can get to do this for you, but I would prefer to do this without having to use any third party components. I would have thought that this would be possible maybe through windows media player component or something.
I have some PDF files that my application generates and stores on my machine. Now each file has a persons name and address string related to it in a database. E.g.
Filename | FirstName | Email
The files can be selected within the application UI and emailed out. Now I don't want to have to hit the database each time since there are alot of files. So , how embed the two strings FirstName and Email into the file itself, so when I load it into a FileInfo object there is someway to access the extra data.
I see more than a few questions asking how to read metadata from an image, but I haven't seen as many asking how to write metadata. Basically, I need to add one item of metadata ("ImageDescription") to a PNG image I'm generating dynamically (creating a Bitmap object and procedurally generating all the content in it).
What would be the best way to add metadata to an image with .NET either before or just after writing the file to disk?

View 1 RepliesI'm very new here and I wonder if you can help me with this.I need to get the metadata from an image file, the basic data like Image Type, Image Width,ColorModel, I already found out how to get but there are some that i dont have a clue how to retrieve:
Pixels Depth/Colors , Creation Software (for example Adobe Illustrator ) and ImageResolution (in pixels/dots per inch)
Early on the OP was asked "how will you get the data about your music?" and it went into a whole other direction, but that's what I'm here to show: Another way to get the data about your music without dependence on the metadata.The music that I have has fairly extensive tags embedded but as I've discovered, that's not the case with all of them. It's a good starting point I suppose but is there another way? Let me jump to the end, then in the next several posts, we'll dissect the parts of it. My goal was use "only out of the components and methods" and this is what we end up with: Aside from the rudimentary things like song duration, how about if we could get a host of information about the songs, including the cover art? As shown in the example above, some also will have a link to additional information. The additional information may even contain a way to watch a music video for that song like this: Further, some will even contain what I call "Liner Notes" like this:
If this interests you, read on ...This isn't a new thought at all; I've explored this area before. Have a look at this on Code Project. Now before you go thinking that you've found the keys to the kingdom, I should explain a little minor issue about that - it doesn't work! In that, he relies heavily on three web services: Amazon Web Service MusicBrainz LyricWiki Amazon has significantly modified their service such that his methods don't work now. If you follow the posts following the thread, you'll see a few people have tried workarounds but over the years, even those stopped working because apparently they (Amazon) are in a state of flux regarding their API. LyricWiki is still alive and well, but - the music recording industry forced them to no longer offer their service to developers. MusicBrainz is in fact a heck of a resource and if you're at all interested in this topic, I would encourage you to have a look around. It's odd to work with, but it's chock full of good information and they're constantly adding to it or so it seems. All that said, this example won't use any of those but rather a different service all together: Last Dot FM. I can't say that I know much about them, but I happened onto them a few months back when I was first experimenting with all this stuff.
So I wanted to check when last a table was changed, and I basically came up with this query:
SELECT DB_name(database_id) as [Database],OBJECT_NAME(object_id ,database_id) AS DatabaseName, last_user_update
FROM sys.dm_db_index_usage_stats
where DB_name(database_id) = 'Database Name'
Now what I want to do is put this in my code using LINQ. I have added the view to my datacontext and all that good stuff, but I don't really know how to do the SQL built in functions DB_Name and OBJECT_Name. I realise that I could do some sort of join to get the values for the id's instead, but I don't know which views I can find the database name and object name in.
Is there a linq equivalent to these functions? Alternatively, what are the system tables/views I need to look at to convert these ID's into their respective names?
