Query Database From A Combo-box?
May 29, 2012
PROBLEM: I want to only show specific database records based on serveral combo-box inputs from a user. I'm looking to query an Access database from within a form I've created for viewing simple Jpegs of CAD files and pointcloud data. I've never worked with table adapters, SQL statements, or much in the way of databases before and I'm lost.
Do I add a new query and do what I want from a configuration wizard somehow? That method gave me a toolstrip button with no combo-box.Should the combo-box be bound to the table or should it stand alone?Can this be done without the use of a wizard (purely in an event) I've been told what I'm looking to do is rather simple, I'm just unable to find syntax that has worked for me.

I'm trying to make a database program in VB 2008 and have come across a problem with a query that I'm not sure how to solve. I have a combo box which contains names of teams that are held within the database, when a team name is selected I have 4 queries that will separate players (in that team) by their position, using this information I will then be able to display information about the players in a collection objects so that it can be edited and what not.
My problem is that I need to be able to refer to the records in the query so that I can assign a players details to objects on the form, I've used a piece of code to do so that I used previously to select individual records from a table, however when I click on a team in the combo box it throws up the error: "Could not format node 'ClientQuery' for execution as SQL.". Not being a particularly experienced VB programmer this error doesn't exactly mean too much to me, although I am not exactly sure of another way to tackle the problem.
The code for this query is:
Dim GK(3, 2) As String
Dim c As Integer = 0
For Each Record In GoalkeeperQuery
[CODE]...
All the fields in the query are strings. If this is not enough information I can post the query I used to select the records in the query used above or anything else that's related.

I'm doing a movie database project where I want to add a first name, surname, DVD and role of that person in that movie to a query which will be displayed in the next tab.
Here's a couple of screen shots of what I'm talking about.

I have a form that queries a database into a dataset then sets textboxes to values from the query. I have a status field I want to be able to control so I created a combo box with typed in values(Active, Inactive, Missing, Broken,Calibration). The purpose of this form is to view the current information on the item and edit if need be. I want to display the current status in the combo box. I can't get the combo box to display the value from the query. How do I do that.

I am trying to use a Linq Query to pull Data from a Dataset and put it into a Combobox. I am getting a Cannot Convert Type String to Boolean Error and I don't understand Why. So Far I have my Linq query pulling Data from the Dataset but I have not been able to get it into the combobox.[code]The portion of code commented out is what I tried before but to no avail. I believe that the error that is occurring, the LINQ query is pulling all the elements not just the VehicleType. I also was wondering how to use the Distinct Keyword in LINQ, from my searches it seems that it should go after my Select Statement in a new Linq, but my SQL Side says thats wrong.

I'm fairly new to visual basic and have a problem that is probably quite easy to solve yet I have been unable to do it so far and am about at wits end.I have an access database with a table that contains a list of cities and states. what i would like to do is to populate a combo box on a vb form with a list of the states in the states column. the query that i have is as follows:
SELECT DISTINCT State from Cities I have previewed the data in the dataset designer and it works, i just can't figure out how to make it fill the combo box. i initially created a table with just all of the states and then used a binding source and table adapter to bind it to the combo box, but if I'm able to figure this out this would help with my application going forward

I am connecting to an Access database and using a parameter query with the LIKE operator to return all rows that match query. The string to search for is taken from a Textbox
sql =
"Select * FROM Allview WHERE Info Like" &
"*" &
CStr(TextBox1.Text) &
"*"
The query does not return any data in vb, but when run from access with same string, there is data returned.The connection to the database is done correctly, as I am able to return data with various other queries.
Partial code :
Dim
con As

I have the following query that executes when my form loads. It's the rowsource for my combo box. The query is fine and populates the combo perfect, however, when i click into the combo box I cannot click out of it or even close the form. I have tried taking out the line of code that fills the form via table adapter on load and it works fine (opening the form unbound by the main table). Has anyone run into this before? I have another combo box on the form setup the exact same way and this is not happening. I've experimented with different datatypes etc....
code to populate combo box:
Public Shared Function LoadCallSource() As String
Dim sConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:Documents and Settingsdiw07My DocumentsDaily Backupsphone memo backend.mdb"
[code]....
If I take out the line
Me.MemoTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Table_Memo.Tables("Memo"), intMemoID)
The Combo boxes do not act up or "Lock"

OK, before adding values to database, we should check if a row exists with this values :)TO do this, creating a Stored Procedure is a best way to deal with the database fastly.So...

In my Visual Basic application I have added a Access 2003 Database to the Data Sources. When I drag and drop the table I want onto the form in Details view, it all appears very nicely with the added bonus of a Calendar selector thing for the field with a Data Type of Date. However I have used some Lookup Wizards while setting up the database in Access and they appear as Text Box, how can I make it so they appear as combo boxes with the selection from the lookup wizard?

I'm trying to bind a combo box to a Access database field. I'm trying to do this with code instead of using the data sources wizard as I was told that this would be more flexible and better if distributing the finished program to other computers.
The result is that the form runs, but nothing is in the combo box.
I have also not used a dataset in my code, only a data table. Am I correct in thinking that this is plausible?

I'm doing an application which uses the Database Wizard to link the textboxes, labels, and combo boxes to the data base. (Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008). (Visual Basic 2008 by Shelly Cashman-Chapter 10)There are two problems: One of the combo boxes has the unique key identifier. You are supposed to be able to use the combo box arrow to select one of the unique keys. Every time I click on one of the unique keys to see the records connected to it, VB acts like I'm trying to input a duplicate key. My teacher hasn't been able to figure this one either. If I was connecting the code, I could fix this but I have no clue since I have to use the Database Wizard on how to fix it.

I have some combo boxes which displays one column of one database, and I want to trigger a query to it every time the CBox is changed, but as soon as the dialog with the cboxes opens, triggers itself..
Private Sub cbProd2_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles cbProd2.SelectedIndexChanged
'MsgBox("Changed")
txtQtd1.Text = "2"
End Sub
[Code]...
To test it I used the MsgBox and everytime the form opens it triggers the Msgbox 3 times each combobox.
I tried with SelectecIndexChanged and SelectedValueChanged but none of them worked good (I tried both isolated, one at time)
