Connect .NET Express To SQLExpress?
Aug 26, 2010I'm so glad I found this forum. I have been trying for days to connect VB.NET Express to SQLExpress using a very simple, one-table database just for testing with no luck. Then I found this forum and the FAQ and used the template for binding a VB Form to SQL and with a few slight modifications and had success.
I'm connecting using the default instance of SQL (no user instance) and after substituting the the "user Id=" and "password=" section of the connection string with "Integrated Security=SSPI" I was finally able to get data returned from SQL server into VB in a Grid Control.
Now for my question. It's a general thing. Yes, I got that to work but in a complete database scenario, would the connection to the database be done in a Public Sub and left open throughout the duration of the GUI interface (passing in the user ID and password as needed) ..until the user logs off? In other words, the template example closes the connecttion immediately after retrieving the data from the database - and I realize this is an example of simply connecting. So, What is the usual scenario (in the real world for connecting and keeping that connection open for the duration of a user session. Where in the VB app should the connection string really be placed and the connection.(close) be placed?I'm not looking for an extremely detailed answer, just an "in general" scenario.I tend to dive in head first and so, I truly look for answers elsewhere before posting a question but haven't really found an answer to this exact question.
Connection Strings To SQLExpress R2?
Aug 20, 2010I have several programs I have written for my music studio/production company. Many dealing with inventory, customer DB etc. All of my programs are in VB6 and I have started to convert them all to VB.NET. I am getting proficient with VB.NET and connecting to DB using the very simple and generic connection strings, Example:

Attaching A Sqlexpress 2005 MDF Via Filename For Bcp Use In Vb 2008
Aug 9, 2008is there any way to attach a sql mdf by filename but actually make the database name something else?
the problem i'm having is that my connection string attaches the database just fine, but it gives the database a name of it's full path on the hard drive when i pull it up in SSMSE. ie. "c:program filesmy programmy database.mdf" is shown as the name when i do a sqlcmd and issue a select name from sys.databases
the snag is being hit due to the fact that i'm trying to do a "bcp in" and because a: there are spaces in the database name, and b: there's the .mdf extension also added to the database name that when i run my bcp in command it errors out, even if i use the -q option of bcp.
if i start SSMSE and right click the database and rename it, bcp works great - so my question is, how do i correctly format my connection string to attach to c:program filesmy programmy database.mdf, yet have it attach the database as "mydatabase" for use in bcp statements?
i've been to connectionstrings.com and they only cover the standard connection strings
in summary - i want to attach an mdf file programmatically and specify the name that ssmse see's it as....

DB/Reporting :: Remote Access Of A SQLEXPRESS Database Using VB2008?
Jun 24, 2008I'm currently designing a client application that connects to a SQL Server 2005 database. My app is being used to display data, allows users to run reports and stats on the data. It is being developed using VB2008. Within my VB2008 project, the connection string to the DB is made via SQLEXPRESS.
The road block that I'm running into right now is that it only allows me to connect to a local DB file (.mdf) only. I tried to connect to a different DB file on a server within the same network domain, and it generated the following error:
"The file "U:Data.mdf" is on a network path that is not supported for database files. An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file U:Data.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share." (where U: is a mapped network drive).
Below is the actual connection string in my code:
"SERVER=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=U:Data.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
The intention is to have the DB reside on a server, where there is another application that runs as a service to collect the data and then populates this DB. Then my app would just connect to the database, and allows users to run reports based on the data in the DB.
I heard that this is the limitation of SQLEXPRESS: it will not allow connection to a remote database. This is true? If so, is there anyway that I can get around this limitation?
The main reason that I chose SQLEXPRESS in the first place is that because of the licensing issue. The company that I work for do not want to make the users of our software app have to purchase additional license for the full-blown SQL Server Enterprise edition. I also heard that SQL Server Enterprise edition does allow you to connect to a remote DB (.mdf) file.

User Presses The Save Button To Save Data?
Feb 24, 2009in my form i have 4 textboxes and i want all not to be empty while saving the data.I have put condition in save button,when user presses the save button to save data, to check all the textboxes not to be empty. My question is that, i want to focus to that particular textbox which is empty during saving the data.
For example: i have txt1,txt2,txt3,txt4 as textboxes in the form if txt1 is empty while saving, the focus should switch to txt1 rather user himself have to go there.

View 7 RepliesCan't Save Data To Install Folder - Can't Find Data After Written
May 19, 2011I've written a very simple program that writes a tiny "config.cfg" (text) file to the computer (using StreamWriter), and a second program that is supposed to read that data back.
Unfortunately, it appears you can't save to the same folder as your program under Win7 ("Program Files (x86)" is a restricted folder.) So instead, VB automatically saves my data to the "C:Users(myname)AppDataRoaming..." folder. This is annoying, but tolerable.
PROBLEM IS: How does my second app then FIND my data file (without doing a time-wasting drive search every time the program is run?)

When I click save it saves the person's name to the calendar view, but no details when I double click the entry again. What would be the best method of getting the other fields to save so they're there when I double click? Should I just somehow assign them to strings and return them in the right text box or would I need an array?
