Pulling Data From A Listbox?
Jun 9, 2010here's what I'm doing. I'm putting together a program that will allow employees that work under me to all submit shift reports in the same format instead of getting multiple different formatted text files.
I have a list box that they add "actions" they've performed throughout the day. It's populated by a combo box and some text boxes.I've got it all functioning minus one aspect...
[Code]...
Here's my problem... it's only outputting the FIRST set of items. The "Upgraded" accounts all list but the "Downgraded" and "Canceled" are not there.In a perfect world, I wouldn't ever need to worry about "Canceled" or "Downgraded" but... the world isn't perfect so,

View 1 RepliesAsp.net - Pulling Data Into A RadioButtonList Including Randomizing ?
Jan 16, 2012This is in ASP.net iwth VB.I have a quiz project that I've been assigned for work.This quiz project contains two main SQL Databases it pulls the info from. First is a Quiz table, which contains three columns: QuizID (Pri Key), Title, Description. This is where I declare the quizzes, indicated by the QuizID (1, 2, 3....etc)
The second table is the Questions table, containing the following columns: QuestionsID (Pri Key), Title, Answer1, Answer2, Answer3, Answer4, Answer5, CorrectAnswer, QuestionOrder, QuizID....The QuizID in the Quesitons table matches the QuizID in the Quiz table.Thus for QuizID = 1, it consists of all the questions with the matching QuizID in the Questions table. The CorrectAnswer I want to assign a simple value (1, 2, 3...etc).I need a way to take a set of questions (based on the QuizID) put them in some sort of table and randomize them (or rather shuffle them) so that each time this quiz is taken, it pulls all questions randomly, but not repeating any)...I then want the code to pull the question and coorepsonding answers to pick from in a radiobuttonlist. However, It only needs to pull the number of answers. Example, a True/False will only have Answer1 and Answer2. The other Answers will have the NULL value in it.
There needs to then be a way to go through each one of these questions that have been placed in the table (in that random order) using a "next" button. When a question and possible answwers are displayed, I alaready have code to keep the answers in the session to grade it at the end (using correctAnswer and selected answer.I have no specific way to bind the data to the Database. I have used SQLDataSource to make other connections before, but I don't know if this is the best way.
DB/Reporting :: Connecting And Pulling Data From MS SQL Database?
Jul 21, 2009I was wondering which way would be the easiest in VS2005 to connect to and pull data from a MS SQL database. I have already setup the database connection by choosing the datasource for a DataGridView but I'm not able to retreive any information.
The steps I have taken so far:
1. Make new form
2. Drag and drop DataGridView onto the form
3. Setup the data source and respective username password
Not sure where to go from here....

Pulling Data From Excel Shows Improperly?
Sep 11, 2009I just got put on a new project to design an app that will retrieve data from an excel data sheet that holds information from our VoIP server's call log. Conveniently, this call log is stored in a fixed location on the local drive that this app will be running on. After working on this for a bit, I knew right away I'm going to need someone smarter than I am...I got to the point where I can show data but heres the issue : Every time I am retrieving the date it shows it as, "08/27/2009 12:00:00 AM", how do i remove the unrelated time stamp?

But if not, then some users have the problem.The database is in the same C: drive location as the exe, and it doesn't change from user to user.The computer is using windows 7 professional 32-bit.
View 4 RepliesPulling SQL Data Into Text File - Some Fields Null / Blank
Apr 2, 2010I am trying to pull sql data into a text file. The code works just fine, until some new data comes in from lazy employees and a couple fields (used for notes/comments) are now left blank. Originally I've never seen them blank so I didn't think anything of it.
col2 = myreader.GetString(1)
It will error if the field is ever null - I even tried using a case when:
case when note is null then '" & empty & "' else note end and set the variable emtpy = '', but vb still thinks that it's null and errors?

View 2 Replies"Pulling" Data From ACCDB?
May 17, 2011I am building a VB.NET frontend to access an ACCDB backend built with Access 2007/2010. The backend will be on a share and accessed simultaneously by multiple users (5 max for the time being, maybe a dozen or more eventually?).My question is, what is the best way to pull the data for the fastest possible acquisition, manipulation, and updating? I'm thinking that pulling it in, then severing the connection and running all of my queries against in-memory structures would be best; am I wrong in this line of thinking?
Do the "DataRow" objects (e.g. "TicketsRow") maintain a connection to the database? I started in on building custom classes to store the data in memory which would pull from DataRows and then dispose of them, but wasn't sure if this was the best approach. My Access frontend was horrendously slow, which is part of the reason I migrated to .NET. I'm not convinced the app itself was the problem, but this solution should give me far more granular control over how the data is accessed and stored, besides the fact that VB.NET seems orders of magnitude more powerful than VBA.

Pulling From A Textbox?
Sep 25, 2008I have a textbox where a user enters the time in minutes:seconds format. I want to take whatever number that is in front of the colon and store it in a variable called minutes, and whatever is after the colon and store it in a variable called seconds. I have everything declared and my code written, I just don't know how to take the text from a textbox and when the value is stored in my variable to only include up to the colon. I think it has to do something with the string remove method, and I can remove the colon, but I don't know how to get the characters after it. (and I can't use number of characters because I don't know how many the user will enter)

Pulling Textboxvalue Into Multiform App?
Nov 16, 2009Basically we're creating a multiform app for class with 3 different forms. its going to be a game.
My startup form asks only for your name and your total units to play with. Then you're able to click a play button, which opens up a new form that will display your total units available (from the first form) and allow you to enter how much you wish to wager for that round.
I wish to know how to pull the info from my textbox (txtUnits) on the first form (frmWelcome) and have it show up in a label(lblCurrentGameStake) on my second form (frmMain).I thought about maybe putting the value in a string and then calling that on my second form but it doesn't work.

strStake = txtUnits.Text

DB/Reporting :: Pulling Large Datasets In .NET?
Sep 20, 2010I am using a stored procedure to fill a dataset with a large amount of data (47k rows and 8 columns). I am needing to fill two tables with the results of this stored proc.One table will have data representing 47k reps that currently have credit for a transaction. The other table will be a mirror copy of the 1st table with 47k reps that were supposed to get credit for a transaction. This application is going to take credit from one rep. and give the credit to the other rep record in the 2 mirrored datasets. It's taking 30 seconds for the data adapter fill method to return records to my application. I would like to reduce the amount of time it takes for this request to process.
Here's the contents of the stored proc:
Code:
ALTER PROCEDURE [spGetSalesCode]
@Period varchar(15)
[code]....
how I can better return a relatively large dataset to vb.net more quickly?
