Getting Data From A Database Using A Primary Key?

May 26, 2006

I want to be able to get some data from my database table, given the value of the primary key. This is what I have so far:

projectName = DbDataSet.Projects.FindByid(projectId).name

where projectName is a String, and DbDataSet is my dataset. The variable projectId is the ID of the row I want to extract the data from, but every time I run my code I get a NullReferenceException.

I know that the row with the primary key value of projectId exists because I can see it when I view through server explorer.

Database Primary Key Won't Hide And Some Other Stuff?

Aug 17, 2011

So Im making a program with 2 different data tables where different columns from those tables are used in different tabs in the same form. This all works good and well so far, but I have one issue which just drives me mad, and a couple minor ones.

1. I have an ID column in each data table marked as Primary Key, Unique and Identity. Problem is that even if I choose to hide this column it just randomly decides if it actually is visible or not. Most often its visible. I dont get it, doesnt this function work? Do I use it wrong? Im not using any code for this, just right click on the data grid, press Edit Columns... And change the Visible to False. It works for all other columns all the time as far as I can tell, but for my ID column its just random.

2. Im wondering if its possible to align the text in some of the columns of my data table to the right, note I only want some of them, not all of them.

3. Is it possible to do maths with the values from the columns in a table on the same row? Like for example having column 3 = column1 + column2?

Finding Primary Key In MySQL Database?

Dec 15, 2011

I'm creating a form that will be used to update fields in a table. I don't want the user to be able to update primary keys though, so I'm trying to disable the textbox so it can't be edited.

The textboxes are created during runtime, so I'm trying to create an If loop that will see if it is on the primary key column, but i'm unsure of how to do this. I tried doing this:

If dt.Columns(i).Unique = True Then
t(i).Enabled = False
End If

But this didn't work. I found an option called PrimaryKey which would go dt.PrimaryKey... something (I'm guessing) but just unsure of how to use it.

Primary Key Column Value In MS Access Database

Jan 21, 2009

I'm using vb2005express for forms (front-end) and ms access database. I have a form with a master-detail setup. The problem I'm having is that when I set the primary key column to autonumber, I don't get the pk value generated in ms access database into my master datatable in forms when a new record is created. Then I tried setting the AutoIncreament to True in the pk column of the datatable in my dataset (forms). This generates a number in my pk column but its not the number generated in the database (since I think because the pk column is still set to AutoNumber). So I change the field property of my pk to Number in the access database and on my dataset (forms), i still have AutoIncrement to True.

This works okay since what it seems to be doing is getting the max value for the pk column when the datatable is filled upon form load. The problem now is that I normally don't do tableadapter.fill(datatable) at form load since I think there would be a performance issue if record counts around millions. What happens now is that when I create a new record, the pk generated is still 1 which will cause duplicate violation when saving to database. I'm not quite familiar with access features but in oracle, what I do is I create a sequence in database then I create a function that gets the next value of the sequence. Then at form load I set the datatable.column.default_value = get_sequence. How do I do this in ms access?

Auto-Numbering Primary Key In Access 2007 Database?

Aug 3, 2010

When I add a new row to an access database, I would like the primary key to be automatically incremented and entered. I've got this to work using a sql database, but it doesn't work with access for some reason. The following code works if I give the code a value for "@key" which is my primary key column. If I leave it out I get the error "Number of query values and destination fields are not the same". I don't want to have to supply the primary key, I want it to generate automatically.

[Code]...

In the database the primary key is type "AutoNumber". Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Increment A Primary Key That Is An IntDigit When Adding A New Record To A Database?

Mar 16, 2012

How do I increment a primary key that is in integer digit format to a record when adding or pressing an "Add New" button that I have on my form. In other words, I have a 'Add New' Button that has the code following:

[code]...

As you can see from the above code, that most of the textboxes are cleared so that a enduser can insert his or her values and information. Currently, I do have the OrderNumber which is the primary key cleared, however, I would rather have this field auto incremented to the next digit. For some reason, at the moment, I just do not know where to begin to set this field so that a digit canbe inserted and incremented rather than cleared.

VS 2008 Cannot Read Integer As Primary Key To Save To Database

Nov 13, 2009

I'm using Visual Studio 2008 and MS Access 2007.

I have linked the database to vs2008.

The first problem I have now is how to add all the data to the combobox from access 2007? [I have solved this myself accidentally.]

The second problem I have is I cannot save the primary key.

Assume that I have these:
Table name: tCustomer
Fields:
ID Datatype [Text]

[Code]....

Now, the user fills in the form. The ID cannot be edited by them where it's automatically counts the number of customer in database and give the id. For example, I already have 3 customers in the database so when I add new Customer, it will be 4 for the ID.

When I click save, it shows me the message of "Index or primary key cannot contain a Null value." I have set an input mask for my Customer. So, can I make it to save in a format like CT001, CT002, CT003 automatically?

Primary Key, Looking For Data Sentence In Datatable?

May 26, 2009

I am new at asp.net, so I would be glad, if anybody could help me in this case... I scanned already the internet for answers, unfortunately with no success..I have a grid view, and this is loaded by a sql data table, this table has 2 keys (RezeptNr and Zutatnr). When I wanna update a row in the data grid, the RowUpdating event fires, so I need to read the Basket Session, what has the complete object stored. I put this in a DataTable (dt1), so far so good..The problem is line: Dim dr As System.Data.DataRow = dt1.Rows.Find(id) Here the compiler alerts, that I have two keys, and he cannot select the data sentence with the find method. I tried it with datatable.select command, that works, but then I have the data sentence in an array, but I need to update the data row of the data table.

VS 2008 Setting A Primary Key And Changing The Names Of Some Fields On Database File?

Aug 5, 2011

Lets say we have an Access file in a well known path (i.e. "C:MyFolderMyFile.mdb"). That file does not have a primary key set on the table we are interested in . Is it possible to set one of the fields as a primary key (for example the "ID" field , which is also an AutoNumber data) ? And one more thing : I'd like to change the name of a field on that table . For example , lets say there is a field called "My Field 1" (note the space characters) and we want it to be renamed as "My_Field_1" . If it's possible , I'd like both these changes to be permanent in the data base file itself , not just in the imported DataSet ,

Referencing Data In DataTables Using Composite Primary Keys?

Apr 25, 2012

i have a project where I need to concatenate strings from 4 different tables based on a sequence of numbers. I created a 5th table that holds the number sequence and dictates in what order the strings get appended. I have created primary keys on the tables, but 3 of the tables are composite primary keys. I have written up to where I start referencing the primary keys, but am not sure how I should reference the keys on the actual tables. I saw some examples for creating composite keys from an array which I did. The main questions are did I declare the composite keys correctly, am I creating the composite key reference from the array correctly, and how should I reference it all to append to the stringbuilder variable.

And yes I kn ow it would be easier if I used Strongly Typed Dataset, but this is a clr sql stored procedure and have not found any examples on how to add a .XSD to a stored procedure. The add item option is not available, besides a bunch of typing

DB/Reporting :: Master - Detail Data - Overwrite The Primary Field Value In The First Grid And The Detail Records

Jul 13, 2010

I have made several posts on here lately regarding master/detail or parent/child data setups but no one has been able to help. It seems like a subject people don't like to tackle BUT I really need help.

I'm having a real hard with the DataView.RowFilter functionality and it is driving me insane.

For the most part, I have the basic master/detail functionality working. When you select a record in the first grid, it shows the correct data in the second grid. When you enter a record in the first grid, you can enter related data in the second grid. I accomplish this by using a dataview and row filter bound to the 2nd grid. When you change the record in the first grid, the rowfilter for the 2nd grid is restated and reapplied.

The problem arises when I overwrite the primary field value in the first grid and the detail records become orphaned. You would think all I have to do is change the ID in the 2nd grid to match the new ID in the 1st grid but this is where I am having problems. I wrote a loop to change the ID of each record currently loaded in the 2nd grid to match the newly changed ID in the first grid. The code is here:

Code:
Dim I As Integer

For I = AuthorizationGroupsDGV.Rows.Count - 2 To 0 Step -1
AuthorizationGroupsDGV.Rows(I).Cells(0).Value = StrEmployeeID
Next

I have used this code before and it works great. It has to step backwards through the grid because when the ID's are changed, they no longer match the RowFilter criteria and they disappear from the grid. They still exist in the dataset. The problem is, while the code "works" the intended effect does not. Some of the records completely disappear from the dataset and do not reload when I restate the row filter against the new ID number.
