Importing A MDF File Into SQL Server 2008?
Aug 7, 2009
I have inherited a VB.net web app that I'm making some changes on. I'm perfectly capable with the programming side (VB and MSSQL) but I'm getting lost with the tools. I was given a zip file of the code and everything. I opened the sln file in Visual Studio 2005 and it worked fairly easily with little modification.
Running the app works perfectly. Problem is, I need to write some new SPs so need the database admin. SQL Server 2008 Express is installed but it doesn't see any database and I have no idea how to import it.I have a folder App_Data in the project with the file ASPNETDB.MDF. Opening this in VS gived the error: This server version is not supported. You must have Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 or later.

Im having strange problems when importing data from an excel file into a sql table. Everything seems to imports ok until i look at the data in more detail, this is when I notice its imported the data but in the wrong order. for some reason when I look at the db table all records are in the wrong order, and strangely enough it seems to be a different order every time I import things. Is there a way to force the routine to import the data in the same order as the it is in the excel file?, because at the minute it seems to have a mind of its own.
My code is below:
Public Function ReadExcelFile(ByVal sFileName As String) As Boolean
Dim oSQL As New clsSQLHolder
Dim excelCon As String
[CODE]........................

I have a large text file that I want to use in my project, that data in the text file has about six items for each location. Now I had thought of importing the text file into a database using Access, but not had a lot of luck making it work. The question is is it better to load the data in the project as a text file then search for the string required or to convert it into a database. (The text file is a list of airports and related data.) Can a text file be converted to a Microsoft compact SQL database?

we're importing a lot of data to sql server from an MS Access db. we're doing it via a vb.net windows form. We open the Access db as a dataset, loop through it and save it to sql server with a stored procedure.

I found a few examples online on how to import excel into sql via vb. but can i do it via stored procedure?
Insert into SQLServerTable Select * FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=D: esting.xls;HDR=YES',
'SELECT * FROM [SheetName$]')
So like, can I pass in:
('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=D: esting.xls;HDR=YES',
'SELECT * FROM [SheetName$]')
As a parameter to SQL Server SP?

I've inherited a .NET app to support / enhance which reads in a couple of files of high hundreds of thousands of rows, and one of millions of row.The original developer left me code like :-
For Each ModelListRow As String In ModelListDataArray
If ModelListRow.Trim.Length = 0 Or ModelListRow.Contains(",") = False Then
GoTo SKIP_ROW
[code].....
and it takes an age (well, nearly half an hour) to import these files.

I am trying to copy a sql database into a vb.net application however it is not maintaining the default values when I do this. Is it possible to import the default values and have them automatically assigned when creating a new row or do I have to manually assign the default values again in my code?

I have developed a VB.NET program using a strongly typed dataset. This dataset has its connection to a SQL Server 2008 R2. The software should now be additionally used offline. The database should be exported to a *.sdf database. If no connection to the SQL server is produced, the software have to try to connect to the *.sdf database.I would like to achieve:
1. Export the data in the SQL Server 2008 R2 database to a local *.sdf file.
2. This *.sdf file has to work as an alternate connection string in the strongly typed dataset.

I wish to import data (into a text box) from specified tags within an XML file.[code]Instead of loading the whole file into a text box I would like it to load data within <ABC></ABC> tags.The amount of <ABC></ABC> tags varies for each XML file. As does their placement (which line they are on).

Is this possible? I upgraded to VB Express 8 and have several programs that I would like to import into VB Express 8 from VBE 5. But everything I have tried so far has not worked.....This is the first time I have imported files from one computer to another. I have tried to save the file as a zip file and unzipping it in VB 8, but that didn't seem to work.

I have a datagridview on my form with 7 columns and a variable number of rows. It's used to track stats on games (kills, deaths, assists, etc.) The way I ended up saving it was in a .xls file for the simplicity of being able to edit it in excel as well as my program. how to import the file back into the DataGridView though.
Here's the code I'm using the save the file:
VB.NET
Private Sub exportExcel(ByVal grdView As DataGridView, ByVal fileName As String, _
ByVal fileExtension As String, ByVal filePath As String)
' Choose the path, name, and extension for the Excel file

I am working on a program for the Windows Mobile 6.0 system and using Visual Basic 08.I would like for the current txt file that I have, that is formatted as follows: "NOR400","277225","ZIMA 4/6 12OZ NR BOTTLES","07199077603",21.65,"cs",7.19,"pk","C4/6PK","12 OZ " to be imported and each item in the line will be assigned to its own txt box. I have been able to load up the file, in to one txt box, but am unable to separate the items in to their own box. Should I be using arrays for this?

I can't seem to get the code structure I'm looking for when importing a csv file into an array. The CSV format in question is 69 columns, and unknown rows since it depends on the time length of the data capture. Over the past 3 days I have tried many methods and can output it all to a listbox, as shown below (column headers appear in order), however when I try to put it into an array it only reads the first column. Am I missing something in the declaration of the array, or do I need to use an arraylist? Every permutation doesn't seem to get the results I seek, or I just plain crash the program.

I'm sure this is a common problem but I have been unable to find a good solution anywhere.I am using line.Split to read a CSV file.Unfortunately the data contains strings that have comma's in them like so:
"Singer","Hasselhoff, David",21,15
This results in 5 strings:
Singer

I had this code working to import one column in a table as a starter point, but now that i'm trying to import all the columns in the table, i'm running into problems.
When I run the app, I get this Microsoft . NET Framework error:
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement
I've tried just about every combination I can think of for the sql statement and still the same error message.

Imports System.Data.OleDb

I use the following code to import a XML file into an Access database:
dbname = "c:PC Auditer.accdb"
xmlFile = strFileName
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim streamRead As New System.IO.FileStream(strFileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open)
ds.ReadXml(streamRead)
streamRead.Close()
[Code] .....
The import works fine, but when a next XML file is imported with less records, the database don't get updated and the 'old' records remain in the database.

When the connections is successful (which it does when ran). Button 1 Writes to the text file (which it does successfully). Button 2 deletes the contents of the table and not the table itself (which it does successfully). Last, button 3 is supposed to read the text file and insert each field which is separated by a comma back into the existing table. However, at the "addComm.ExecuteNonQuery()" step I receive an error (An unhandled exception of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException' occurred in system.data.dll). I have spent many hours trying to find a solution but can't seem to get it to rewrite the text file back to the table.[code]...

I'm brand new to this forum. i have a question. i wrote some software a while back and now have a few new features I need to implement. this software currently makes use of "application settings" to store all of it's settings. Which works just fine.
I have a client that has about 40 users. He wants to be able to share his settings (that he set up in his copy of the software) with all of users. Preferably by distributing a copy of a config file that they would be able to import into there software.
