I wish to save some data but dont want to use database. I have studies that XML files can be used for that. But I have no idea abut XML.
What is the difference between using XML and database?
I have multiple file upload boxes on a form in my mvc3 application. Request.Files shows 3 files when I put a break point in the below function and look at it.. Problem is other than coding a counter and using a select case I dont see a way to handle saving each file name to the database column it belongs to... Is there away to assign the variable on the fly I guess you could say So that the foreach loop would drop the file in the correct column. Ie handoutFile1, handoutFile2 , handoutFile3, Etc. As it stands the below will overwrite the filename in handoutfile1 every time the loop is gone through. I thought about throwing a counter in the loop and just put a select case on it to assign the db column based on the counter number. Seems like a cheap work around though. [Code]
View 2 RepliesI have a routine which populates a DataGridView. I generate the data on the fly in arrays and the populate the datagridview simply by saying
For each Row in DataGridView1.Rows
DataGridView1.Rows(row.index).Cells("PastColumn) = Array(row.index)

I am not saving the data to log files. I only display the results at the end of my routine. When I close the project the data is lost.I am trying to understand why one would bind data. Would you do this in the case where you are saving the data to a file and you want the datagridview to update when the file is updated or loaded again at another time?
I am reading data from an API feed and saving the chunks into files. When the files reach 10 MB I start a new file and write to that file. What happens now is that an entry (<entry></entry>) can get cut off at the end of a file and continues into the new file. I try and reconstruct the files by taking the last entry and combining it with the first entry of the next file but this is tedious and was wondering for better suggestion on handling the data transmission and file creation.
The data stream is of variable sizes and where one request can return 60 MB of data the next can be as little as 2MB. I know the data stream will end with a token </feed>but my problem is the cut off data in between. I guess I could just make the max size really large and then hope the data is never more than that but then I have to work with large text files and reading in and parsing would be a problem.
timestamp = DateTime.Now
numbytesread = responseStream.Read(bufferread, 0, BUFFER_SIZE)
If numbytesread > 123 Then
'timestamp = DateTime.Now
responseData = Encoding.UTF8.GetString

I'm trying to create a simple Data Grid that will automatically save changes. So far I have a data grid connected to a MS Access 2007 Database that reads the data. I can create new fields in the Data Grid, but I need to program to save the data automatically to the database on update (or on close).
View 6 RepliesI'm working on a project which are generating some data from my VB.NET software and I wish to save those data into sql server. But my concerns is the speed of saving and the large amount of data. For every 0.5s, one set of data will be generated and the process will keep running for about 8 hours, so at the end of 8 hours, roughly there will be 60,000 set of data generated.May i know what is the best option/method of saving the data into the sql server in not hanging up my software and also keeping the pace with the speed of 0.5s data being generated?
- Speed of 0.5s. I have to maintained for every 0.5s, one data must be generated. Cannot delay too much.
- I can afford delay in the sql database, meant the data might not be necessary close to real time.
I am making a simple program in Visual Studio 2010.My program connects to a MySQL 5.5.8 database running on my computer through XXAMP. I have used the Connector/Net 6.3.7 for MySQL to allow me to do this.
This is the local information for the MySQL server:
Server: 127.0.0.1
Port: 3306 (default)
Username: root
Password: admin
I have successfully created a Data Source for this server. The DataSet is called 'testdbDataSet'.
This is what my program looks like:I do not want to use the navigation bar that Visual Studio gives me at the top. Instead, I want to use the buttons shown below the input fields. The btnAdd button I believe should clear the two fields. It is currently working fine. I want the btnSave button to save the stored values of the two input fields to the database. I do not know how to do this.
this is roughly the add form where i have created... i am suppose to send this information into the database that i am using which is mysql.It is suppose to grab the incident date and the Type and also a count that increases by 1 if the date is the same or else it will be back to one.
This is the code
Dim count As Integer
Dim hotelcode As Integer

I am trying to make a program (kinda like a game, but no graphics). Well, everything on that is fine, and ive made this program once before in VB6, but that code is long gone and I am trying to make it again. Well, here is my issue. I want the users to be able to create items on the server end (as well as maps, npcs so on and so forth) and I was wondering if there is a way to do this without using a database? In VB6 I used several ini files, but this is not a recommended way of doing things anymore. I dont want each person that uses this to have to install SqlServer on their computer either.

The database was created using SSMS 2008 R2 and I'm using VS 2010.
I have confirmed that the data is being stored in the data row (because when I removed data from the data row it wouldn't accept because there are NOT NULL columns) and I have followed the instructions of this form as well:[URl]..

View 1 RepliesI've been looking at this problem for a while and can't see what I'm doing wrong. I need an extra set of eyes. The business problem that I am trying to solve is the following:I have a table that contains a list of auction items that are displayed in a datagridview. I have another table that has a list of bidders. At the end of the auction I need to update the Winners table with the bidder number and item number of the auction item. To do this, I display all of the auction items and then let the user enter the bidder number and winning bid amount in the datagridview. When finished, the user clicks on Save and the information is pulled from the datagridview and saved in the Winners table.
I have a datagridview (AuctionItemsDataGridView) that uses the auctionitems table from my database as its source. I add the BidderNo, WinningBid and BidderName columns to the datagridview when the form is loaded. There are 3 types of auction items so I prompt the user for the type of auction items to display using a combotextbox (CategoryComboBox). When an auction category is chosen, I load the auction items for that code into the datagridview. I then load the winners from the winners table into a WinnersDataTable (WinnersDT). For each item in the datagridview, I check if there is a corresponding item in the Winners Table. If there is then I populate the BidderNo and WinningBid columns of the datagridview (I also populate the BidderName). So far all of this works. The problem is when I make a change to the datagridview.If I enter a bidder number and winnng bid amount the data is not being saved to the physical database table. To save the data I perform the following:
For each item in the datagridview, check if a Bidder Number is entered. If a bidder has been entered, I check to see if there is a corresponding winners record in the WinnersDataTable for the current item. If yes, I enter the bidder number and winnng bid amount in the table. If there isn't a record, I add a new one. After looking at each item I call the Update method on the WinnersDataTable.
Public Class Winners
Dim BidderDT As DataTable
Dim WinnersDT As DataTable

I am developing a program that will contain a TabControl on a form. The TabControl will have multiple TabPages that will represent forms used in the mental health field by clinicians. What I have done so far is created a SQL Express 2005 database that contains a table for each TabPage. To start off, I am working with only 2 tables to see if I can make this work. The tables are called EvalPage1 and EvalPage2. Each table includes a field called ClientID which I have named Key Indexes. I am also using these fields to create a relationship: EvalPage1.ClientID (Parent) and EvalPage2.ClientID (Child)
The problem That I am encountering is when I use the BindingNavigator to enter and save a record, it only works for EvalPage1 and not for EvalPage 2. Here is the code that I am using:
Public Class MainForm
Private Sub EvalPage1BindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles EvalPage1BindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click

View 2 Repliesi am creating a system where when a command button is pressed, it adds the data corresponding to that command button to a Table of the screen. And basically im at my wits end at how to do this, i have tried using SQL and databases but all i seem to be able to do is type data into the table and this is not what i want.Basically the table has 3 columns at the moment, which are filled in column at a time, and this need to be done by pressing command buttons. To explain this basically there are 8 buttons, which can be pressed to enter into the first column, once one of these buttons is pressed and second set of buttons appear which correspond to the second column and after one of these buttons is pressed the 3rd set of buttons appears to enter into the third column.Once the last button is pressed that is the first row filled in and the user can again press a button from the first set. Its basically a system for rapidly entering data into this table through the corresponding buttons.I have the buttons appearing and all that working fine, but thats basically just the layout. I need to know how to enter the data into the table.i have to use a SQL database, i only added that as at the end of the session, the entire table of data needs to be added to a master database but i can attempt this at a later date.

What do you think what is faster:
1. writing 1000 records in a binary file on a server? or
2. passing the same 1000 records in a database on a server?
and
1. search a specific record in a binary file? or
2. search the same specific record in a database file?
