how to use the Enterprise Library 5 connecting to a MS Access database using VB.NET 2010 on a windows forms application. Looking for quick code samples on how to add, select, update, delete records from an Access database.I'm trying to adopt Enterprise Library in my applications but I'm not finding much information on it.
In my shop we currently develop what I would consider small to medium sized projects.We have been investigating the Enterprise Library and how it may be able to help us in development.I have particularly been looking at the Logging block and comparing it with Log4Net.It seems to me that the Enterprise Library blocks would be an extremely over-engineered solution for something like simple application logging.That being said. Are you using the Enterprise Library and on what size projects? What are your thoughts on the Enterprise Library as a whole?
I just got finished watching a short video on logging using some of the built in concepts in Visual Studio 2005. This seems to do a good job. My question is why do people look for other solutions to logging such as Enterprise Library or Log4Net when there is a simple solution out of the box?
The video I watched primarily used the following for logging.
I'm trying to use the Enterprise Library RangeValidator attribute to validate that a decimal value is greater than zero:
<RangeValidator(GetType(Decimal), "0.00", RangeBoundaryType.Exclusive, "1", RangeBoundaryType.Ignore, "MyMessage", "", Nothing, False, "", "")> _ Public Property Holding() As Decimal
[Code]....
As far as I can see I am using the overload correctly. It works fine if I remove the messageTemplate related parameters but I want to be able to specify a custom message.
i'm trying to debug an application i'm currently developing but somehow i'm now getting the following exception The type initializer for 'SupervisorProducao.MdlConstantes' threw an exception. the exception occurs when i reach this
I'm getting a design time NullReferenceException on Dim db As Database = DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase()and I can't figure out what to do about it. Has anyone experienced this problem or know the solution?
we are using the Enterprise Library data access application block in our data layer for an application. We must be doing something wrong though because we cannot seem to get encryption and the ability to reconfigure connection strings working well. For example, when the application starts, it checks if the connection strings are "Protected", and if they are not, we encrypt them using the following function:
[Code]...
Then comes another issue. If a user installs an update for the application, the first time it runs, nothing can connect if the config file was previously encrypted. A restart of the application (second time running) will fix the issue. with all of the battles we are fighting here, I wanted to ask if we are doing this right? How should we be encrypting and allowing updates. If you need to see the exceptions thrown, I can provide those upon request (will need to change some code to get them again, but it is doable).
Our app allows admins to connect to a different database, which means we need to temporarily decrypt the app.config's connection strings, re-write them, then re-encrypt it. Here's my current 'simplified' code showing how we do all 3 tasks:
Dim config As Configuration = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(ConfigurationUserLevel.None) Dim section As ConfigurationSection = config.GetSection("connectionStrings")
I am using Crystal Enterprise 10 to run Adhoc Query to generate reports.My database has data with 4 digits after decimal point. But, the Ad Hoc query report rounds the data to 2 digits and displays that. Is there a way I can change this default behaviour to show the data as it is without rounding it?
I have vb .net windows form application that I want to connect to Microsoft access database using "Microsoft DAO 3.6 object library". My problem is that when I go to Project tab -> Add reference -> COM tab, there should have been "Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object Library" on the list, but for some reason It's not on the list. Then I googled, and found out that the location of "DAO360.DLL" is "Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedDAO". After clicking on Browse tab, I browsed to that location, and I guess I added reference on another way.This is the code that I used before for connecting to Access, but for some reason It doesn't work this way on this PC.
look i need to access to function but this function is found in a library dll, in the object browser appear the description about it using Visual Basic 6.0
Function GetFullUserName() As String Member of RNASECURITYINTERFACESLib.IRNASecurityToken method GetFullUserName
i don't how to write the code to access to this function
I have the following projects: TradingProject (my code) Has reference to TradingLibrary, and to ApiLibrary? TradingLibrary (my code) Has reference to ApiLibrary ApiLibrary (3rd party code)
I'm making several projects (like TradingProject) that communicate with a software through use of an existing ApiLibrary. But I want to push generic methods into a library I write: TradingLibrary.
Still, I would like to use some parts of the ApiLibrary directly from TradingProject. However, I then would need to pass an object (of an ApiLibrary class) into a method in TradingLibrary. Where the object should be recognized. However I assume this will be a problem, as TradingLibrary use it's own reference to ApiLibrary, so it will not be recognized as the same classes? Is there some way I can "forward" the ApiLibrary reference from TradingLibrary to MyProject, such that they will use the same reference? Or do I need to duplicate the classes and inherit from ApiLibrary for each class? Like:
NameSpace TradingLibrary Public Class SomeClass Inherits ApiLibrary.SomeClass End Class
I guess that would work, if I do it for all classes I need, but is there perhaps some simpler way I'm not aware of?
I have been using VB6 to manipulate MS Access 2000 databases via the DAO 3.6 library on Win XP. I have recently acquired Visual Basic Express 2010 and I have not been able to port my VB6 code. I can not find any sample code to use MS Access 2000 from VBE 2010. Is it possible to access MS Access 2000 from VBE 2010?
Here is my VB6 code:
Sub Main() Dim dbJobCPD As Database Dim rsJob As Recordset
I'm using PInvoke to access some routines from a third party library, however i'm getting SEHExceptions when trying to use callbacks defined for one particular method. The callbacks are used to provide feedback from other unmanaged methods within the third party library, passing a string back to the calling application containing a status message.
I have created a Class Library project to create a VB.net 2005 DLL file. I am trying to access My.Settings in this class library project and not able to. How would I do this?
I've created a class library and built a dll (release build). I've then referenced the DLL in another project (I've tried several). I can see the namespace and classes in Object Browser and I can declare instances of the classes but I cannot use or see any of the methods or properties! there is no IntelliSense whatsoever and calling the methods manualy results in a 'Declaration expected' error.
Within the class library solution I have a unit test project referencing the class library project which works all works fine (and all the tests pass).
Can anyone provide any pointers to what might be going wrong here? I've built plenty of dlls in the past and have had no trouble referencing them at all.[code]...
I'm building a generic Class Library that I will use it in all my projects. However, I want to know how can I access Resource file from a Class Library?
I can save my data to access database and in the access database field I set it to date/time.But problem is when I get the value out from the database.. the format is always month/day/year hour:minutes:seconds example today: 5/2/2011 12:00:00..How to get the value into listview becoming May/2/2011 without the hour..Here's my code to get it from database ListView1.Items(i).SubItems.Add(dt.Rows(i)(14).ToString).The second problem is.When I would like to edit, how can the datetimepicker get the listview value ? [code] info: using access 2003 (.mdb) the Date of Birth field has been set into Date/Time.
I am trying to access appSettings using the following syntax and I have used it before in my many website projects but not in a class library project. In this class library project I cannot even access the AppSettings Keys. Is there any way I could access the AppSettings Key from my class? Is the class library project's app.config or project structure behave in a different way?

I have already added Project Reference to System.Configuration and imported in my class. When I run my code it says, "Object not set to an instance of any object".
I have an application that has an Ms Access 2007 DataBase which runns great if access is installed. Is there any code that I can use in vb that I would be able to run access with out installing it.
I 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
I 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?
I have a Visual Basic Class Library project. It generates a DLL. Is there a method to generate a static .LIB to which I can do a static link?Alternatively, can I do a static link against a DLL?
I want to create an enterprise wide dataset so that my function will call this same dataset from any of the webpage. I've created shared code in the App_Code folder. In it, there's are dataset properties. Will the pages extract info from these dataset properties each time I call the shared program or will create new property for each page.I'm trying to emulate an Enterprise Java Bean type of coding.
