i am new to working with databases, I have done some of my own research and have been adding and regtrieving records without trouble. Now I need to retrieve a specific record based on a selection made by the user. I found that the way to do it is with the WHERE statement and from examples i have seen the code below should be how it is done:[code]The problem I am having is that when i try to run the sub i get the error:Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Show Name = Strictly Hip Hop'.The show name is in the database because that is where the data is retrieved from. All I am trying to do is populate a text box with information from the Host column when the Show Name column is the same as the selected item in the combo box.
If I have this to read from an access database, how could I translate it to read from an oracle database with the same table/field information? I know nothing about oracle but I assume I cannot use the oledbdataadapter that I am used to when connecting with an oracle DB.
I have simple application with MS SQL (.mdf) database. It's all works fine on my computer, but when I run app on another computer, and when I try to add new data I get error: "Failed to update c:\program files\..database.mdf because the database is read only".
The program is currently trying to pull information from three different database tables and compiling the information onto one screen, to do this i am using three different connections and a function to handle the data at each stage. The issue is as my code hits PageLoadStage of "2" and runs the QueryDatabase() Function i am encountering an error of: "OleDB exception unhandled: No value given for one or more of the required parameters." This occurs on line 15 of the first code snippet. Can anyone explain this and/or identify any code issues if that is the cause.
I am trying out the Visual Studio 2008 Standard Edition Setup and Deployment - Setup Wizard on a very simple VB 2008 app which includes a simple SQL Express dB. The build works fine and it installs on the target system ok. But when I go to run the application and add a new record for example, I get a "read-only" error indicating that the sql db is read-only. Yet none of the files in the folder are read-only. What is odd is that the folder that it was installed into "acts" like it is read only, yet it is not identified as such. If I move the .exe and db files out of that folder, (onto the desktop for example) it works just fine. Should I set up a post build event or something to make

First off, what I'm doing here is trying to read in information from a magnetic stripe card, parse it, validate certain parts and go from there. I'm working on two classes... the first is CardClass and that represents the card itself (well, the data obtained from the card). The class is CardParsingClass. This holds all the card parsing rules.
At one point in the process, I will create an instance of the CardClass. That instance gets passed into the CardParsingClass.ValidateData function:
CODE:
This function steps through each of the card parsing rules and applies the rule to cardCurrent to see if it passes (i.e., is valid).
And here we come to the meat of it.... what I'd like to do is define an event called FailedCardReadEvent. Whenever I raise the FailedCardRead event I could write to the log that it failed, modify variables in the CardClass (particularly the state of the card read variable), etc. So, the way I'm looking to use this would be something like this:
CODE:
So as shown above I'm thinking I should code a FailedCardReadEvent in the CardClass. But I don't know how to do that.
I also don't see how this is different than just calling a subroutine. If I have to manually raise the FailedCardReadEvent isn't that the same as calling a subroutine?
I know I'm missing something but I'm just not getting it. I've spent some time googling this morning and read a few things but I'm just not understanding how it all works.
