Not sure if this is the right Forum to post this question. If not guide me where to post... I have an Access database that I would like to be able to share with Multiple user cuncurently... I have seen it is being done but I am not sure how? Or may be I should be using SQL Express.

I am developing an access database that will be shared with multiple users.I don't want the users to access the database directly so I will have them enter new data on a data access page. The data access page is stored on a Microsoft Share Point web page, and the database is stored on a network drive.Here is my problem: When new data is entered on the web page I need it to trigger a WillChangeRecordset event; however, I have not been successful because the web page does not declare a new instance of a recordset object.At a minimum I need the new data to be processed before the web page appends the new data to the table.
View 3 RepliesI'm designing a PC-based app that has a little local database. I'm using VB.NET with SQL Server Compact Edition. The user will only ever have access to one database file, because it's all about storing a user specific data. However I'm thinking of the situation where there could be multiple users that access the PC, each with their own Windows account. So ideally I'd need separate database files for each User.
I'm not sure how to implement this. I was hoping to deploy the 'empty' database as a ClickOnce deployment, but I can't see how I can have a database per user doing this. Also I'm not sure where to store the database files anyway. perhaps in MyDocuments for each user? Or perhaps I need to stick to just one database, but add a 'User' column into every table, so it can hold data for every user. I didn't want to do this though - because I wanted to keep the nice separation between the data offered by physically separate files.

I have created an access database which i want to search with vb.net, I tried a few thing but it didnt work as desired.
Firstly the program is suppose to display items in the database base on the criteria selected by the user. what i've succefssfully done so far is I've added a datagrid 2 combobox, 1 (searchcbo) with the columns in the database and the other (searchcbo1) will autoload the items under the column selected in and a button (searchbtn) but i have no clue of the code to put in the button. i also tried the fill method but that didnt work as i wanted to. ultimately i want a combobox with the list of columns and a textbox to enter criteria and of course a search button.
The searchbtn should act as the "WHERE" sql command, e.g. SELECT EmployeeNumber, Firstname, LastName, Phone, Location....etc FROM CallLog WHERE searchcbo.text = searchcbo1.text And display the results in the datagrid.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

on my program i have an activation in it and in order to activate the program you need to enter a code that is stored in the settings. so i was looking through my computer and i found the programs config file. and so I opened it and i found all of the codes for the activation. I need to find out how to make the file so the user doesn't have access to it and then how to move it to a more hidden place in the C: drive.

#Region "Proxy"
Public Structure Struct_INTERNET_PROXY_INFO
Public dwAccessType As Integer
Public proxy As IntPtr

Note: getRandomProxy gets a random proxy from a list.Problem is that whenever RefreshIESettings(getRandomProxy()) is applied, the proxy will be applied to all of the WebBrowsers, while i would need to have a unique proxy for each WebBrowser. Not having this would just error out the page in the other browsers and so on.
I have created a shared add-in in Visual Studio 2008 and using the shared add-in wizard and am coding in VB. When run the add in in Access 2003 I want to check if the user has a database open, so I set a AccessApplication variable to be the application object in the OnConnection procedure and then on a button click I check if AccessApplication.CurrentDB Is Nothing If there is no database open Access will close correctly after the button is clicked. But if a database is open then I have to stop Access in the VS debugger.

I am new in programming and I am using VB2005 and I can user either SQL2005 or MS access database.Here my scenario:I have created a project where the user can add a new record, (Support Desk) there are times when a new record is added, it may need a backup (Pictures, Document)to be included in regards the problem.
I need to know if anyone has some sample code on how to attached any type pf file (jpeg, BMP, doc, txt, PDF, excel) and be able to save it to the database.
I am developing a Visual Basic .NET application to be used by the staff of a small training centre nearby. The front-end (UI, menus, etc.) will all be in VB .NET, and there will be a back-end database for storing all of the required data, such as student records and meeting information. What I would like to know is if it's possible to use a Microsoft Access database for this purpose, and have it accessible by all the staff in the centre (on the same network) at the same time. For example, would I be able to put the database in a shared network folder, and have a copy of the VB application on each PC that would all be able to read/edit/add to the database?

View 3 RepliesI have a program which I am securing with a Username and Password box, in which the user enters their credentials. In the database, the username is a number field (VB would not accept this as a string and was looking for it as Int32). And the password is a text field. I have the form linked to the database by an OleDbConnection with a DataAdapter (DaUser) and DataSet (DsUser). I am using a datarow which I have declared at the top of my code i.e. Public drUser As DataRow. The problem arises when the user enters their username and password.
The following code searches the primary key row of the database (Username)
drUser = DsUser.Tables("User").Rows.Find(txtUsername.Text)
When the Username entered does not exist, I'm getting this error when trying to display on the form the users email:
NullReferenceException was unhandled - Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I've tried both if statements and try/catch to basically say if the Username doesn't exist... display an error message etc.
My aim is to try to add a new user to a access database. Im doing this using from a form named frmRegister. It seems like the code is working perfectly, and I get no expectations that indicate if any errors occurred. However, the user doesn't get added to the database.
The code I'm using is:
Public Class Register
Dim connectionString As String
Dim connection As OleDbConnection
Dim OLEDBAdapter As New OleDbDataAdapter
Dim OLE As String

View 2 RepliesI have been using access for my applications from over 4 years now. I realize its time to move on now and i need suggestions for a new database. Here are my requirements :should be able to connect it with Vb.net windows form frontend GUI - all database functions such as add/delete/edit/update will be done through the vb.net front-end only.Should be able to place the db on LAN and each client on the LAN can then access the centrally stored db through their individual front-ends.At the most 5-6 users will be reading/writing to the database at the same time , so the database should not crash or slow down Since i come from MS access background, i would like something thats similar to it so that i can learn and adapt to it quickly.Not very important, but i think its worth mentioning. This db will be the main central db for my .net application.My .net application will also be interacting with quickbooks and magento via some apis but ultimately all this data will go to the central db. So just curious, will there be any compataibility issues with the database that you suggest Should handle about 10 tables and around 10k records in each table Should be secure - just that i should be able to lock it up or anyhow prevent it being accessed from anywhere else other than the vb.net front-end.
Lastly, I would prefer it to be free to use if possible but not essential. I realize there are some topics like mysql vs sqllite and on databases, but pls understand i need suggestions for one that will be apt for the purposes i have listed above.
Edit : Just curious - Would i pushing the limits if i still stick to access - i understand access won't be good for multi-user access but i guess 5 users is not much ?
I'm writing a form that get some informations from a database to manage the User Access Level.The way i do that is to Fill a Dataset by using a DataAdapter and the Bind some controls to the Dataset.The controls i binding are a ListBox, a Textbox, and five Checkboxes.All are fine with this controls. I can delete values and update values, i can choose a record from my ListBox and the values of this record to be desplayed on the othrer binded controls and so on.

I've been working on an application for awhile that, basically, allows the viewing and printing of a maintenance database. It allows the user to view basic information for the object and then view the maintenance history. My approach for the maintenance history is simply to have unique tables per object since a history has to be kept for each, however, I'm running into a problem in the application that allows the user to view the general information from one DB and the Maintenance history from the other DB.
Say you have Object ID BG1. I can enter the object ID into a search field, pull the data from the general DB and display the data, but I also need it to pull the information from the maintenance history and display. If maintenance history for this object is not found, then create a new table within the DB, fill the columns with the required fields and allow for the user to edit the history.
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:

View 3 RepliesI have a created a class, which contains a sub routine.This sub routine, should ideally be accessable by objects which are not members of the class, so I would like to make the sub, a 'shared sub' (call it Sub1).
Question: I am using many threads and there will be possibly 100s of 1000s of threads all wanting to use Sub1 (which is at present, is not shared).At present Sub1 , is not a shared sub, so every time a thread wishes to use Sub1 , I am creating a (dummy) instance of the class and then applying Sub1, to that instance.
My program works flawlessly using the above technique.Question: If I were to turn Sub1 (which is not currently shared) into a shared sub, and directly had various threads calling Sub1, would there be any issues with locking, ie. would it possible for 2 threads to enter that thread and start overwriting variables, which another thread has written to?
NOTE: there are no shared variables/properties in Sub1 and all variables used in Sub1 are declared within the sub itself.
