I am trying to add an order by case statement in the dbcommand.commandtext but i see that no rows are returned. I want to assign priorities for colors in the case statement. This would help me avoid create a new table to priorities and rewrite a lot of code to map the foreign key.[code]
i have a program using a select case to convert letters to special charaters. My question is how can I get the code to read upper and lower case letters without having to put the upper case letters in my select case statement. Example: Part of my code is
I have created an SQL query using Query Designer in VB.NET 2005. The commandtext for the query is somthing like SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE Field1=@Parameter1. I want to change this at run time to something like SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE Field1=@Parameter1 AND Field2=@Parameter2
What is wrong with this code?When the code runs cmd.ExecuteReader I get an error saying "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'AS'".I'm assuming I didn't breakup the sentence correctly.

I'm trying to edit the CommandText for the Insert Command in a TableAdapter in the Designer in vb.net. Whenever I make changes to the CommandText, Visual Studio (2008) automagically changes the Parameters to a Collection consisting of one Parameter thatexisted before editing the Command, immersed in a sea of complete garbage Parameters, and then I either have to undo (unless this was the first thing I tried editing, in which case I have to close the Designer to discard changes and reopen it) or manuallychange ALL the Parameters back to something that isn't complete garbage.
[Code] The above code does not work. I need for this to check to see if there is a database entry with the office name and today's date. Then if not it needs to tell the user that it is going to create a new entry for todays date. Then the code is trying to enter a new row in the database but it is like i can't use command. commandtext = in two spots. Both SQL commands work if separated but not together in this code. Obviously the abcdefghij are just test entries but it works if it is separated from the other sql command above. Also of course i have changed the datasource above to hide mine.

Dear friends I am new in .net world and I am trying to display a single row to a literal. I prefer VB so my code is as follows but I'm getting the error "ExecuteReader: CommandText property has not been initialized".I also tried sqlCmd.CommandText = "getLastModificationDateTime" without the EXEC statement
When my form loads it adds some handles (using AddHandler) to a sub (showStatus). What this sub does is checks which control activated the sub (using sender.Equals) and displays text in the status label (status) accordingly.For this I use an If...Then statement for each possibility. There are many possibilities and my code get cluttered. Is there a way to do the same thing with a Select...Case statement. I tried: Select Case sender Case tbOne : status.Text = "blahblahblahblahblahblah" End Selectwhere: tbOne is a textbox, status is a StatusLabelIt gives me an error though, saying "Operator '=' is not defined for types 'Object' and 'System.Windows.Forms.TextBox'."Any ideas on how I can get this to work with a select case statement?
In my app (written in VS 2003) I use OleDbDataAdapter's to load data. I have some functions that enable be to change the OleDbDataAdapter.SelectCommand.CommandText at run time, by adding a "WHERE" or "HAVING" section to the SQL command, or updating the "WHERE " or "HAVING" section. This way I have have generic load data functions. (load all invoices for Customer 123, load all invoices for the year 2009, or load all invoices for Customer 123 for the year 2009).
With the new VS 2008 TableAdapter, the TableAdaper.CommandCollection property is Protected. How can I edit the TableAdaper.CommandCollection(0).CommandText at run time?
I am doing a project for a course that involves a database, i have it set up already so that i can have two different labels displaying data from two different fields in a table when the form loads, but i am trying to get it so that when i click an option in a listbox it will change the displayed information. I am using the following code to set it when the form loads:[code]
My general method up until now is I use SQLClient class along with CommandText to send SQL INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE statements dorectly to the SQL Server from the VB app. I have a function I use that will escape any special characters within any string variables. I put a lot of vb database functions in a module that all of my forms can use. When I need to pass data around I send/add arguments to functions using regular variables, etc... I log all of my SQL queries sent to the server to a log file for troubleshooting.So far this has worked well. I know there are better ways to do this, Stored Procedures for example. But I just have not made that leap yet. I'm about to consider turning my world upside down!
I'm MOSTLY interested in creating custom Classes that represent the various objects in my database (Customers, Projects, Invoices, etc...). Then defining all of the properties each of these classes should have: Customer.ID, Customer.Name, Customer.Status, etc... and would like to "map" that Customer object to the database I'm interfacing with. I figure I can wrap all of the SQL commands into methods within each class, i.e.: myCustomer.Name = "Joe Smith"
I have a combo box bound to a datasource. I need to change one combo box (of many) to order the items in descending order.I'm guessing I could order the collection in the dataset, but that will mean all my combo boxes will be reordered?
I have a databound Datagridview. The DGV is bound to a datatable of a strongly typed DataSet created using the wizard. Is there any way to re order the columns before displaying them eg: the Columns are displayed in the DGV in this other Col4, Col6, Col3, Col1,Col5, Col2
But I want to it to show as Col1, Col2, col3, Col4, Col5, Col6?
I realise that the display order followed the Column order in the database table and by extension, the datatable. I have re-arranged the columns in the Database but the Datatable still retains the old order.
Firstly Case 2 runs. Throws exception. And right after this debugger shows that next processed statement is Case Else. Only after Case Else throws own exception Catch block start working. I've never seen this trick. Why can this happened?I'm sure the block is entered once (not like this:first enter hit Case 2 and second hit Case Else).
Update:-To Matt Wilko. Thank you for answering. I've switch to Strict On in Options of VS2010 but nothing has changed. Command is variable, not function. Watch tool shows that on each step Command is the same ( Command = 2).
Fixed. Yeeaaaahhh. I simplefy code to Try Select Case 2 Case 2
[code]....
and change project to Console app. This works as I mention. The fix was in Release mode. I was debugging in Release mode. When I switch to Debug mode everything goes as it should.
This might not be so 'VB' as it is 'SQL using VB' I have an application with a built in MS Access DB. I have a table that has a column full of integers, I shoot the DB a SQL "order by 'column name' " string and it returns the table ordered by my column of integers.BUT it returns them like this, and I want them like this
0 6 1 5 2 4
[code]....
How do I get the OrderBY to do a descending list starting with the highest number?
I'm working on the exercise page 73 (VB 2010 in 24 hours). It's basically a form with 2 text boxes, 2 text labels and a command button. It's really simple and uses this loop to cycle through the items, and tell me the name of them in a Messagebox
I have to order a table following a logical order but I cannot find the appropriate ORDER BY clause.To simplify I have 2 fields field1 and field2
1 record : field1 contains �2� and field2 contains �1� 2 record : field1 contains �1� and field2 contains �2� 3 record : field1 contains �2� and field2 contains �2�
I need to add Functions for the Case 10 and Case 13 in this code. The code in each select case needs to be moved to the two functions which then returns the code once its called from the Sub Main section. But I am having a really hard time figuring out what exactly gets moved to each function.[code]I'm not sure what exactly to put into the individual Functions and how to change up the Sub Main section.
