experience on how to create an engine using C# (VB.NET is okay too) that is generic enough to handle most cases of MS Word text fields I need to fill with data I'm getting from a database? In short, I'm about to embark on this little Office automation excursion and I'm hoping a little bit of feedback here.
This is my problem.I have a field set up in MS Access to Boolean YES/NO, this field is populated when the user check a checkbox on a windows form. If the user check a checkbox, the value is written as checked in the data field (MS Access).The problem is when I search for the user information, I need the information from the Data base to populate(return) to the windows form. Example: If I enter a users phone number and the user data is present, the form gets populated with the information the user previously entered which was store in the database.Example: If the user selected checkbox1 and submits the form. When I search for the user info, the check box should check(populate) because the user had checked it on submit.Here is what I have done:

I am getting the check value correctly in the database using a Boolean.Here is one of the errors I am getting. Unable to cast object of type
'System.Boolean' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.CheckBox.I am having trouble putting the codes in a code tag or block
i am trying to create a program that connects to a database and shows table fields in listview in windows form i manage to do that but i want now to have a button to take the total of a column in a list box ,lets say from the column "money"?
Visual Basic Project - Student Check In Form using an Access database backend This form needs to draw information from an Access database containg tables for STUDENT, INSTRUCTOR, and SECTION. These all need to have primary keys and ids. When (the user) clicks on the drop down box that displays all the sections:
{Table Tennis 1, Table Tennis 2, Table Tennis 3, Billiards 1, Billiards 2, Billiards 3}This should populate the listbox or datagrid from the STUDENT table with the Students that have the same SECTIONID as the SECTION selected in the drop down menu above.
After the Student list has been populated (the user) clicks on a student name in the listbox/datagrid and this inserts that student into the CHECKEDIN table that has a datagrid/listbox associated with it.
This is a great project to practice connecting a database to Visual Studio 2008 .net and playing with the data that has been pulled in. You could use SQL instead of Access.

This did not work but did when i just tried creating the table and not the fields.
Setup: 10 pc's connecting to a shared hard drive on a server connecting to a certain .mdb file from access 2003
Problem: We are a 3rd party tool for a Point of sale application and when the real software makes some modifications it locks certain tables which we don't lock. My ( Might be possible solution ) is: Is there a way to check with a query or an certain object if the table is locked if yes
I have the code I am using below. On 3.5 framework Access 2003 database vb net 2008
I already have the database created but need to be able to add Tables and fields with the correct datatypes. So far it's not working but i don't know why or where the error is.
Private Sub MDIParent_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Try
My intent is to have the code - on a button.click event - check the Username and Password fields and return an error depending on which is wrong. Or if both are wrong, return a different error message. I've set the username as parts and the password as parts (still learning how to use external authentication). [Code]
I'm using VS 2010, and I did a project using VB and a database in Access. The problem is that when I try to put that "application" on other computers, sometimes, is not working. I thought it can be because on these computers they don't have access, but on one computer, is running another app which is using Access and there is no Access installed. How can I check if my application requires Access to be installed or not?
Here is a example of how I did the connection:
Public AccessOLEDBConnString= "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & myfullpath & ";Jet OLEDB:Database Password=password"
Function getConnection() As OleDb.OleDbConnection
[CODE]...
And when I want to have access at the data I'm doing like this:
I want to check Day & month of date which is in database.There is date field is in database which is mm/dd/yyyy format If I use "select" query then whole Date is access but I want only these date's which having today's day & month.Example: if today's date is 02/02/2010 then select only those date whose day is 02 & month is February.(Dont consider Year)
My application is like this : i have to search my data from database with some check box and text box when user select check box specific function go on and then when user enters some range of value in textbox then the result will shown in data grid view after that i can print it by selecting data my vb.net code is as follow:
hi there,first of i know nothing at all and my goal is to make a app for xp to check a database and check/patch a iso and then to burn the result to dvd-dl, basically like a app called abgx360 checks the database then like xbox backup creator burns the game, i'd like to make a app to do both, i'm going to college next year in september to learn programing c+ andf a few other things, but thats a longtime away.
I have a Boolean that writes to a data field. The data field(column) is set to YES/NO, if the user check a checkbox, the value is written as check in the data field.The problem is when I search for the user information, I need to get to form to the state it was in when the user submitted it.
Example: If the use select checkbox1 and submits the form. When I search the form, I need to make that particular check box check.
I have two list boxes and I need to compare them to check if they are the same. One will be populated with number I set and the other will be populated when the user clicks on certain buttons. But how would I go about comparing the numbers the user enters with the set numbers? For example if the first list was 3241 and the user enters 3241 how could I check that they were the same?
Working in a VB.Net 3.5 WinForms application, and using Access 2003 (JET 4.0) as a database backend through ADO.Net.
I'd like to check the database for changes, before the application decides to refresh the data from the server. Are there any best practices for this, or should I trust the ADO.Net environment to optimise/handle this?
I was thinking of using a limited log on the server, which gets updated by every change. Pulling this log could tell whether or not a certain table has changed data.
I have finished my database using Dreamweaver ASP VBScript and Access, the only thing left is to create the searching system. My search form works fine when posting just one filed. The results page Recordset goes as follows.
Code:
I need 7 different fields on my search form, this what I did but it doesn't work.
Parameters:
Name: MMColParam Type: Text Value: Request.Form("Ref") Default value: 1
Name: MMColParam Type: Text Value: Request.Form("New_resale") Default value: 1
"Price" is a special one because this is a list menu with different amounts, like 50.000, 70.000, 90.000, and so one. The idea is to make this list menu post to the result page, only to display records under or equal to the given value. less or equal > than 50.000 or 70.000, etc.
when a save button clicked, the username textbox is added to the database otherwise if the username already existed then a message appeared to tell user it is already taken.. sample code
I need help with the code to make it so when a form loads it will check the Access database for the user and if that user is present, then it will load their selections. Otherwise, if no user is present it will add a new row to the database and display nothing.
I am trying to create a form which will be fed by an underlying database to create multiple form fields for each entry in an underlying database table. This is for a program to monitor patients under anesthesia, and prior to surgery, the doctor will choose which monitors they will be using. Then, on the actual monitor screen which will pop up every X minutes, there will be a text box and a check box for each chosen monitor. I am relatively new to VB, so I have tried to illustrate what I am needing but using the logic that I know from my previous life in PHP.
I am using DevExpress's layout control to place the form fields, so that is the code in the middle of the first loop (on_load), and I know that part works, I just need to know how to name the fields and then recover those fields and commit the values to the database. (the text boxes are added to the database, the check boxes are used to determine if an entry is made for that monitor- i.e. at the end of surgery if a monitor is turned off). I know that my syntax for naming the fields is no where close to correct, and it probably would not work in PHP, but I remember doing something like this in a PHP application I built long ago. [Code]
