Locking Tables In A Backend Access Database?
Dec 14, 2011
My problem is that I need to use a access database as a backend for my visual basic.net program.
The database will be accessed by a maximum of 10 users but I want to lock tables when a user is updating a record.
I am unable to use the SQL server at the company due to it storing sensitive information.
I have some basic knowledge of ado.net
I have read many articles but I can't find any articles that say how to lock a access .mdb file using Visual basic.net

We are thinking about changing our current database system, MS Access 2007 front end and MS SQL Server 2005 backend to using a higher level language such as Visual Basic .Net. I wonder if this is the BEST solution for data management? Currently, among others, we have two big database programs that handle more than two hundred users and it's crashed often. That's the reason we think about changing to something that can handle these database programs effectively preferably using MS technology such as .Net.

I am trying to use a transaction for the duration that the dialog is open and then commit the changes once the dialog has been ok�d or rollback'd if canceled by the user.My problem is when I use the transaction it is locking the whole of the tables that I�m using to update and insert new records too.I update the record in the first (current) table and insert a new record into the second (history) table. Obviously this is causing me problems as I only want the transaction to lock the specific records i'm updating and not allow a new insert record with my PK associated to my that I�m updating, not lock the whole of the 2 tables.This is my code[code]....

I want to gather some data from some tables of an Access Database, I've found some solutions online, but I haven't found ways to fill a datatable, or dataset, and get each single field properly. Is it easier for me to get whole tables then get just the info that i want, or should I make a lot of searches in the access DB getting just what I want each time? Any code snippets for it? The Access Database is in an ACCDB file, with no user or password. I'm currently using VB.NET, but it doesn't matter if you answer in C#. [URL]

I am in the middle of the creation of an application using vb.net. I have a database created in MS.Access which includes 7 tables. I connected this one with my parent program code. Now the problem is that I want to display the data from each column. I have 12 columns and 14 rows in my first table. How can I display data from one column in a Combo box?

I have a database that has tables in it. Tables can be added to this databse programatically as well as the data that needs to be in those tables.I need to be able to query that database to get what tables are in it, place the names of those tables into a listbox so that when a user clicks on the name of the table, It will update a DataGridview with the data that is in that table in the database.I assume that you would need to build a dataset at runtime based off of what tables are in the DB, but i have no idea how to do this.

I have a system that gathers raw data from electronic devices, uses that data to populate a set of tables and allow uses to add/edit certain data and report on it. (Kind of basic right...NOT) There are 3 applications that I've written that use the same database.
One is a client that is on 3-4 user machines which allows them to see the data that has come in and work with it.
Two a Data-to-Information process program which takes the raw data, checks up certain information and puts the results into the database.
Third is a data gathering app that interfaces directly with the electronic devices and about 10 times per day places the raw data into a single table in the database.
If a user is in the 'client' application the data processing application crashes all over the place:
1. Database file already in use.
2. Unrecognised Database format
3. File locked exclusively by User on PC X.
Almost always on a different line of code and once when I made it retry over and over I managed to corrupt the database and had to Compact and Repair it to fix it. If no one is using the client everything works perfectly. On each client machine is a database with linked tables to the server machine. The machine that is running the Data processing is the server and the processing is using a database in a different folder that also has linked tables.
I have gone through all the recordsets in the Data Processing application and made sure that they are only using ForwardOnly and Read Only. They edit the data only with Insert, Update or Delete queries. I'm about to do the same in the Client Application as it seems to be the one that is locking everything all the time. The client machines haven't crashed on that error at all. Does it matter which version of Access is on the client and server machines? (All the clients have Access 2003 and the server has 2007 but the Database was created in 2003). Should I just convert the Access database to SQL server and be done with it?

I have a form with 5 fields(inputs). When I entered data in the form and click submit, the data is entered into an Access 2007 Database(Table). All the set up (connection) is working because the data table is getting populated with the user info. However, I also need to search the database by entering a name in the name text box and clicking a button.
This is suppose to populated all the fields with information from the data base if the user exist. The search part is not working. I have no more hair to pull. :) Here is the code:

I have three tables (Supplier, Product, PurchaseOrder) within a MS Access database. I am trying to display Product table in DataGrid1, Supplier in DataGrid2, PurchaseOrder in DataGrid3. What I am trying to do is to choose a product, the total list of suppliers for that product appears in DataGrid2. Up to here works fine. Now I want to add the third datagrid so that for product #1, supplier #1, there are four purchase orders listed - default. Then if I choose product #1, supplier #3, there are two purchase orders listed, and so on. I can not find out how to work with the DataAdapters and DataSet Relations for three joined tables.

I have built an application using VB 2005 express edition with backend Ms Access 2000. In main form(which is loaded on startup), I am having 9 datagridviews, each bound with databindingsources. I am refreshing this data every 15 seconds by refilling the table adapters and updating the datagridviews.Now, this access database is shared in the network and is accessed by about 5-6 users concurrently. There are other forms which are used to edit the data.My problem is poor performance of the application. Its very slow in opening up forms, not responding sometimes and using the network resources fully.

I'm a bit of a newbie to using VB in Access, I have a database in which multiple people need to work specific problems which are separated into records from a form. What I want to have happen is that everytime a person changes the cboStatusName combo box to "Done", it will populate the current time into the DateCompleted field, and then it will lock both of these. Below is the code I'm trying to use through an event.

I'm using Excel as a database backend to load into a datagridview.
This is how I connect and bind to the dgv:
vb.net Dim sFileName = filelocation & "checks.xls"
Dim connectionStringTemplate As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0 Xml;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1"""
[CODE]...
It connects and populates fine. I have a button for the user to "refresh" the datagridview. I cannot get it to correctly refill the dgv. I have tried setting the bindsource.datasource to Nothing along with the datagridview datasource, but I get an error that brings up the Visual Studio debugger with no real error message...

I am developing an app that uses a sql backend database (hosted on a different machine).The app I am developing will be run on 10 different workstations simultaneously.Sometimes the app will change the database in such a way that the database needs to initiate a workflow process and I'm not sure of the best way to do this.Also, when database changes happen, how does one best notify the other app instances that the change has happened, so they know to refresh their data? I was thinking that triggers could help initiate the workflow but it might be nice to develop the actual workflow in .net code.Should I write another App to run as a service on the server and do the work and also to tell the client apps when things change?

I'm a bit new to VB.NET and I have a database which I want to connect to an access backend stored on a network drive for multiple users. I can view the Database in the solution explorer and the directory defaults to the project folder. How can I specify the directory to pull from my network drive? VS has copied this datasource and imported it locally which is fine for testing, but i need the file accessible for multiple users. Is this something I do when publishing?

I am using VS2008 and SQLite. I have created a database and several tables and am attempting to populate the tables with data from arrays.
The following code (example) works fine but stops after it inserts 30 to 50 records. I am running the VB code in debug mode and when it stops, I press pause to see where it is. It stops on "SQLcommand.ExecuteNonQuery()" and when I press continue (F5) it will insert another 30 to 50 records.
I do not get an error message. Is this a timeout issue? How do I keep the loop running to the end of the array?
Following is example code.
Dim
SQLconnect As New SQLite.SQLiteConnection()
Dim SQLcommand As SQLiteCommand
