We are trying to store and retrieve datatable as blob (varbinary(max)). We convert the existing datatable into an xml file and store that xml file as a blob and while retrieving we get the blob as xml file and convert it back to datatble. It seems to be storing and retrieving the xml object but having issues while converting it back to the datatable ("End of stream - error").
View 2 RepliesI have determined thanks to the last q & a that there is something wrong with my "save to db" code as well as my "retrieve to picture" code. Even If I manually save the pic in the db it stil wont retreive. This is code i patched together from 3 or 4 examples around the net.
Dim filename As String = txtName.Text + ".jpg"
Dim FileSize As UInt32
Dim ImageStream As System.IO.MemoryStream[code]......
I am having a problem storing an image as a Blob in a SQL linked table. Our system uses an Access 2002 frontend and linked to a SQLServer2000 database. I have a form that I want to display a unique client jpeg photo for each client record. Our client HIPAA concerns means we have to store the image not the path in the database field. I am using an Image control on the form. Initially I have been able to load an image from a Windows Dialog into the control and save the path no problem.
My issues are surrounding how to actually save and load the jpeg as a BLOB in a VBA byte Array after the image has been loaded to the form from the dialog box.(Is there some sort of binary conversion needed or does the Append and GetChunk methods handle all this)?:
All the code examples I have been able to find on the subject have a line of code to set the Image control's data source to the open recordset with this statement ---> Set imgDBImage.DataSource = rs. Does this statement work with VBA because DataSource does not show up as a property of an Access 2002 Image Control. So how do I point the Image Control to the table field which contains the BLOB in VBA code?
Finally, how do you convert the string path of the image to binary for storage in a byte Array in VBA. I have the syntax for a VB 6.0 which is..... .Fields("ImageBLOB").AppendChunk bytBLOB. Is the .Fields portion of the code relevant in VBA to tell what table field to write to and does the AppendChunk method handle all the conversion?
How do I store BLOB data (e.g. image, document) into the database?
View 1 RepliesI have a mySQL table(IMP_SCANS) holding the file, it's name and size for every document:
scan_1 blob
description varchar
filesize int
doc_no varchar
doc_date date
I managed to insert a file to the table. Now I need to save the file to disk.
So I have the code:
Dim conn As New MySqlConnection
Dim cmd As New MySqlCommand
Dim myData As MySqlDataReader
Dim SQL As String
Dim FileSize As UInt32
Dim fs As FileStream
[CODE]............
I all works fine up to the line: myData.GetBytes(myData.GetOrdinal("scan_1"), 0, rawData, 0, filesize) Where it says "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". I cannot figure out why I receive this error.
I`m using oleDbConnection in order to Select a BLOB data from Oracle column, and I have to stick with this type of connection since all my application is using it.
After I used the following code, I got the error: unspecified [code]....

Here is my problem: I need to store HTML in a MySQL database. Afterwards, I need to be able to retrieve the HTML and have it be valid HTML that a browser can render.
How can I store HTML in a MySQL database using .Net? How do I retrieve it afterwards? As this is the design phase, I can create the database any way that is needed.
I like the PHP way of doing things but, it seems I am stuck with using a Collection of Object's to store/retrieve the data I need. I have my Collection loaded with my Objects's and the code to iterate through the collection, my problem is I am unable to retrieve the "key" as it would be called in PHP (I believe in this case it is actually the name of the object).
Consider the following example:
Dim xDoc As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument(fName)
Dim xNav As XPathNavigator = xDoc.CreateNavigator()
Dim sender As XPathNodeIterator
[CODE]...
As you can see, I am navigating an XML document, and creating an Object with some Key/Value pairs. The Object would look something like this if it were in JSON:
{"name":"John Smith","address1":"123 Anywhere St.","city":"This City","state":"FL"}
When I iterate though the Collection I can only get the value of the object, but I need the Key, in this instance I want "name","address1","city","state" to be stored in a variable for each iteration.
In my application I have many different forms each use 3 different database. And right now I am placing the connection string in each form but when it is need to change I have to change in every form. Now what I want to store all connection string in a vb class and call them in every form. So that if I need to change I can do in that class. I have stored my connection string in database so even I don't want to connect to database again and again. I have some idea in which maybe a public class is used and some how I will call it on other forms.

View 3 RepliesIf you have to store and retrieve data from a database is a string not the most effcient way? What is best?
How does this work in a real world scenario.
For example: I have a customer ie first name and last name and the CustomerID is autoincremented when initially added to the database. Now, the user could lookup and find the customer by their ID but we all know that's not practical. They don't know 231223 is John Adams, they know John Adams or Adams John.
So how do you handle this? Access is the database I am using but I think this would apply to any database.

View 2 RepliesIn the application I'm documenting, sometimes a value is stored in a Public variable & other times it's passed to/from a Public Property which does nothing except store it in/retrieve it from a Private variable. (And in one memorable exception, the Public Property stored it in a Public variable-I'm almost certain that was an oversight by the original programmer though.)
I know that passing it to/from the Public Property has the potential for better validation, but if the Property doesn't actually do anything except store/retrieve it is there any benefit to declaring it as a Property? (Or maybe I should put that the other way around. Personally I'd declare them all as properties because that will allow adding validation later-but I'm not rewriting this, I'm just trying to document it and, in this case, trying to figure out why sometimes it's done as a property & sometimes as a Public variable.)
I need to store/retrieve a bit from a data table of 3.268.760 bits long.
Using w As New BinaryWriter(File.Open("test.bin", FileMode.Create))
for x = 1 to 3268760
For i = 1 To 3268760[code]....
the w.write(?) stores a boolean value meaning 0/1 for false/true values, but Vb.net seems to use an whole byte to store this data which is too expensive for my table (3.268.760^2).Is there a pratical way to store/retrive single bits from a file using vb.net? (meaning as little as possible conversion to other types).
