im using vb.net winform.i want to update a datatable to sqlserver. but before that. i need to check by comparing it to another datatable(same structure but contain new data). i need to insert new data only.
View 4 RepliesI need to make a small application in which I use a datagridview that is populated with data from a table from an SQL Server.In this datagridview I marked the checkbox for adding new rows, also for modifying values, etc So the user should be able to change values inside the datagridview and when the job is finished I have 'Save' button which should Updateall changes in database.For retreving data from the SQL server I use method
Me.Bedarf_tableTableAdapter.Fill(Me.ISB_CLDataSet.bedarf_table)
and for update I use:
Me.Bedarf_tableTableAdapter.Update(ISB_CLDataSet)
I have only one problem - When I clcik on the Save button I receive a message like this:Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows.but only if I change values from existing rows. I am adding new rows the update method is working perfectly.
I've been perusing some hep forums and some help books but cant seem to get my head wrapped around this. My task is to read data from two text files and then load that data into an existing MS Access 2007 database. So here is what i'm trying to do:
Read data from first text file and for every line of data add data to a DataTable using CarID as my unique field. Read data from second text file and look for existing CarID in DataTable if exists update that row. If it doesnt exist add a new row. once im done push the contents of the DataTable to the database.
What i have so far:
Dim sSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM tblCars"
Dim da As New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sSQL, conn)
Dim ds As New DataSet
[Code].....
In constructing my table i use "SELECT * FROM tblCars" but what if that table has millions of records already. Is that not a waste of resources? Should i be trying something different if i want to update with new records?
Once Im done with the first text file i then go to my next text file. Whats the best approach here: To First look for an existing record based on CarNum or to create a second table and then merge the two at the end?
Finally when the DataTable is done being populated and im pushing it to the database i want to make sure that if records already exist with three primary fields (DriveDate, DCode, and CarNum) that they get updated with new fields and if it doesn't exist then those records get appended. Is that possible with my process?
I have a piece of code that filters a datatable based upon the cumilative value of records in a particular field. In short i specify a number and the filter counts through the records (rows) in the datatable and select the records that together are either exactly equal to or do not exceed a specified value (defined in a combo box on a form).[code]...
View 1 Repliesi have a datatable that contains numerous postcodes in the following format[code].....
there is always a space before the last 3 characters now i need to filter the datatable against a list of excluded postcode areas..these are the following format:-
BT1
BT2
BT4
BT40
so its either 2 letters & 1 number or 2 letters & 2 numbers, no 2nd part to the post code..i have a little function which builds the string, and then removes the rows from the dataset like so (ive pasted in an example postcode string)....[code]....
which obviously brings out no records as they all have full postcodes the issue is, i need to be comparing only the first half of postcode BTxx bit but cannot use a % wildcard, as this then would bring out BT40's when i only want, in this example, BT2 & BT4's..so is there a way to make it compare against the first half of the postcode?

View 11 RepliesI have an application that performs database queries using "Imports System.Data.SqlClient". I want to display an animated GIF on the taskbar which spins while the query is running. However, during a query the application simply hangs and does not update the GUI until the query has finished, at which point the spinning icon is set to invisible anyway. Is there any way to force the GUI to update while the query runs?

One of the features of the application I am working for is that it needs to check if an external windows application..lets call it A, is running. If it isn't running, then start it. If it is, then leave it.My idea originally was to use the process name as a filter. But the problem is that the process for application A is javaw.exe. Application A, belongs to a toolset, which has other windows applications, which have the same process name, javaw.exe.I already know that one of windows which has a javaw.exe process has "Edit"..in its title bar. So my algorithm to filter for app A is:
1. GetAllExistingOpenWindows
2. For each window in AllExistingOpenWindows
3. if window.processname=="javaw.exe" then

I want to be able to use this program to filter through a list of doctors, and based on what doctor you select, only show the patients who see that doctor.
Here is what I have so far, the database has a column with just the doctor names so I thought I should be able to filter it by that and show the patients, but none show up. I don't get an error and it seems to refresh, but nothing ends up in the schedule.

Actually I just realized I don't think I loaded the data from the database as the form loaded. I tried doing that, but get an error where I called for the data to be loaded. I added the code where I try loading the databases.
"No value given for one or more required parameters."

I am fresher in vb.net but I have experience in vb 6.0. But I want to connect database in sql server through sql connection. In that case how to create connection with window or sqlserver authintication mode and how to add or update new record in data base in batch transaction. Please help me with sample code.
So that I can understand eassily.

I have two data tables. dtAllResults is the master data table which contains ResultIDs and everything related to each ResultID. dtNoCV is the other data table which only contains ResultIDs. If the ResultID from dtNoCV is located in dtAllResults I want to update some checkbox cells in dtAllResults (as seen below).
I'm looking for better performance, because dtNoCV may contain a few hundred ResultIDs and I'm afraid this loop will slow things down.

I have a DataGridView bound to a DataTable. Although all rows are displayed in the grid, the table represented by the Grid's DataSource does not get updated after changing values in one or more DataGridView columns. Both grid and table contain a Primary Key. What am I missing here? Do I need to do something in the RowValidated event?
dgvCriticalContacts.AutoGenerateColumns = False
Dim ccRs As DataTable = Common.OpenRecordset("SELECT * FROM PhoneList")
dgvCriticalContacts.DataSource = ccRs
I have a form with a DataGridView (dgvResults) control on it that displays data from a DataTable (dt). On this same form I have a button that the user will click to update a column (intCommentCode) on dgvResults with a numeric code they have entered in a text box. When the form is first displayed all 100 rows of dt are displayed. The user may filter dt to only show 10 rows. When the user clicks the button, I only want to update those ten rows. The code below updates dgvResults just fine, but dt is not updated, why? I thought that if dgvResults was updated dt would automatically be updated also. How do I update dt to match what dgvResults shows?

How to update datatable with master table?
If the application is used with multiple users/instances adding records to the same database, whats the best practice for doing this and not incurring any conflicts with primary keys. Right now my partial solution is to do a tableadapter.fill before adding a new row to retrieve any new records. But this obviously isnt the best practical solution as the likleyhood of a conflict still exists when letting the apllication increment the key.
Whats a "correct" way to do this, any reading or examples would be great for me to learn.
