View 6 RepliesI just started using VS2010. I am very familiar with Visual Basic 6 and was very comfortable with it.I was able to take a variable and assign a database field to iwithout using data binding. I can't seem to figure out how to do thatin VS2010 What I am trying to do is have the use enter a password to gain access to the program. The password is stored in a database so that the user/owner can change this password to suit their preference.
View 1 RepliesHow can i declare a simple variable in a form that is the count of the amount of times a field appears in a database.Basically i want to count the amount of times the word "Saloon" appears in a column in my database (access 2007) and then assign that value to a variable.
View 22 RepliesI used this coding for a reading column name from access database. But i want how to read every field values of that particular column?
dim dr as oledbdatareader
dr.item(1).tostring
If I have this to read from an access database, how could I translate it to read from an oracle database with the same table/field information? I know nothing about oracle but I assume I cannot use the oledbdataadapter that I am used to when connecting with an oracle DB.

As you can see below in the code the " & tblName & " will work fine but instead of using the BankName (which the user cannot change because it is in the code) I would like to do the same as I did with the Table name and use a variable that gets its name from an excel spreadsheet rather that an actual name hard coded in a VBA module. I would like the variable field name entered in the Excel Spreadsheet by the user just like the table name is filled in by the user. The problem is getting the ADO SQL string ( cmd.CommandText = "ALTER TABLE " & tblName & " Add Column BankName Char(25)" ) to recognize that the value in the Variable " & fldName & " is the field name to be used.
Sub AddFieldToAccess()
Dim cnn As ADODB.Connection
Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
[code]....
'If I do this I end up with a field named BankName what I need is the name in the variable " & fldName & "
cmd.CommandText = "ALTER TABLE " & tblName & " Add Column BankName Char(25)"
cmd.Execute , , adCmdText
Set cmd = Nothing

The variables in the brackets [example] do not actually have brackets in them in the original code. These are where the issues are. For both variables, it says, "The type for variable [variable] will not be inferred because it is bound to a field in an enclosing scope. Either change the name of [variable], or use the fully qualified name (for example, 'Me.[variable]' or 'MyBase.[variable]')." Now, I'm not entirely sure if this is a stupid question or not, as I'm used to VB '98 because that's what we use in my programming class at High School. let me know why this won't work.
-Note: The intention of this program is to continually loop the generation of numbers for this list until I tell it to stop. Button1 ends the program, Button2 generates the list one time only, Button3 is supposed to loop the generation of the list, and Button4 is supposed to end the loop, but not the program.
There are lots of questions about this but I've not been able to solve my problem using the answers to any of them (after many, many attempts..)
I'm working in vb.net creating an asp.net web application. I have an SqlDataSource and a GridView on my page.
I want to change the DoNotMail boolean value represented by a Gridview checkbox and automatically update in the database if the checkbox is checked from 0 (False, Will Mail) to 1 (True, Won't Mail) here is the code I used. [code]...
is it possible to do a two way sync on the entire gridview when the user hits a button so you don't have to do an update every time a row is changed? because the user might check the box and then check another box then uncheck a box and it would be a lot of updates...

View 2 RepliesI am creating a database in VB.NET for a movie rental place. I currently have three forms;
Member Information
DVD Information
Borrow DVDs
What I would like to do is when I am viewing a member's details, if I click a button 'Borrow DVD for Member', the member's ID number transfers over to the Borrow DVDs table in the Member ID which also would hold some information from the DVD Information table, but I'm sure if i can figure out how to do this firstly, I will be able to apply the same rule and work it out myself.I have been trying to use a query statement like;
INSERT INTO [Borrow DVDs].[Member ID] [IN goodstuffvideos.mdb]
SELECT [Member Information].[Member ID]
FROM [Member Information]
but that has been coming up with error codes and completely not working.
Borrow DVDs table fields are: Borrow ID, Member ID, DVD ID Number, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit?
DVD Information table fields are: DVD ID Number, Title, Rating, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit Member?
Information table fields are: Member ID, Family Name, Given Name, Address, Town/Suburb, Postcode?
The error coming up is; Error in INSERT statement. Unable to parse query text.And under that it says The query cannot be represented graphically in the Diagram and Criteria Pane.

Upon entry into my database, frmLot opens. The form opens in datasheet view. It displays several fields to include one named WorkOrder. The user clicks in the cell named WorkOrder. In the On Click property, I store that variable and name it stWorkOrder. What I need to happen then is to pass this variable to the criteria field of a query named qryWorkOrder and have it run and display results.
View 1 RepliesI have a list with several fields that is created from dataset from a linqtosql query. At run-time, the user gets to specify what field he/she wants to display from the list. In other languages, I can dynamically do this like:
valueIwant=mylist(i).[fieldnameImInterestedIn]
Where 'fieldnameImInterstedIn is itself a variable. How do I do this in VB.Net?

This program was created with vb6 to find and remove empty folders. i converted this program to VB.NET code and it isn't working like it should.. it seems to stop scanning at 'C:\documents and settings' instead of scanning other folders in other directories...Does this code look right? I can provide the entire program if needed... I just want to know why it isn't scanning like it should. Btw im switching from vb6 and trying to learn vb.net.. vb.net is a lot different..

I want to be able to put a file to a variable so I can interact with it. For example I could put a wav file into a variable and play it back without having to distribute the separate file. Is this possible for instance by using Base64. I have seen some Python programs for example that have images embedded in the code.

Code:

Palette files have a slightly different header structure as follows:

I can hard code each value, and read it with binaryreader, but I suspect that is possible to define a class or a structure, and read it at once with serialization, altought I are not sure on how to read the variable rgb_triplet array.
