Setup Sql Server Connection With Dataset?

Oct 21, 2009

I am developing a software that will be installed on 3 servers using sql server 2005 + replication.

In my development I want to use sql server with dataset.

When I finish the project at my development machine, I want the ability to install it at these 3 servers.

What is the best way to configure the connection?

Can I change the connection string created by the wizard during run time?

Update Dataset Source Without Sql Server Connection?

Dec 16, 2010

I have an existing project written in VB.NET using Visual Studio 2005 communicating to a SQL Server 2005 database. The database was migrated to a sql server 2008 r2 on a different physical server so the dataset's server name needs to be updated. I do not have access to the database anymore. is there a way to just update the server name without invoking the dataset wizard and requiring a connection to the database?

UPDATE: I tried to created a new project with just a button with the command calling the following subroutine to test the connection from a windows app to the sql server database. here is the sub:

Public Conn as New ADODB.Connection
Public Sub PubSubConnectToDB()
Conn.Open("Server=w2k54

[Code]....

I am able to created a system dsn on the same server with the same credentials and test the connection successfully.

Sql Connection Error - Re-establish Connection To The Server

May 14, 2010

This will happen at random, and I can always just catch the error and re-establish connection to the server, but I am confused as to why. When doing lots of inserting into the sql server, I only establish one connection that is public, instead of many little connections. I had my doubts on a public sql connection, but it's been running great, and I've seen no problems until this morning. Again, this random moment I hit an error that stated, sql connection state is broken. Is it bad practice to just accept this error, and when it happens, re-establish the connection?

I know that if a distribute projects i can put connection string in app.config and every user can change it according to his/her machine .But as i am giving a setup file how to solve this problem

Can Not Setup SQL Server

Jul 31, 2011

As part of my learning vb i started the book "microsoft ado.net 4, step by step", by Tim Patrick. I down loaded sql server 2008 express w/ no errors.

It has two folders, 1) configuration tools, 2) import and export data(64 bit). the configuration tools folder has (3) programs: 1) sql server config. manager,

2) sql server error and usage reporting, 3) sql server installation center(64-bit). The book, on page xxi, asaks to install the sample data base by download and unzip; no problem.

the book says; start sql server management studio 2008 and open a new object explorer connection to the target database instance using the file|connect object explorer menu commend. I can not find the file menu entry in any server program? There is no "object explorer"?

C# - Ignore Dataset Schema In WCF Connection?

Nov 2, 2011

On the server side of my application I have a function like this:

public function GetDS as MyTypedDS
Dim dsRetVal as new MyTypedDS
'Make fantastic things with the dataset
return dsRetVal
end function

On the client side I call this function through a generated "service reference":

Dim ds as Reference1.MyTypedDS = myRefInst.GetDS

How can I disable schema serializaion of the typed dataset to reduce the traffic?Is it enough to set the SchemaSerializationMode of 'dsRetVal' to ExcludeSchema before returning it? Or is this option ignored by WCF?

Can't Get Dataset To Pickup New Connection Info?

Aug 6, 2009

I have created many datasetsets in many projects in a solution. In each case the datatables reference a named data conection such as laptop_rick.intPricing.dbo. In that connection I point to the server, etc.. I should point out that in the code I connect to an entire different db server and this is all setup at runtime, this is strictly an IDE issue. Now I have moved the development server. Now of course when they try to connect to the server during development of the datasets it complains that it can't find the server. No problem just open the defined data connection and change the server name.

The problem is that I can't seem to get the dataset to recognize that it needs to rebuild that information in the xsd file. I look in the file and there are still references to the old server. If I change the connection definition in the xsd and rebuild all is fine but I don;t want to have to do that for each every dataset. It seems that although the dataset recognizes the name of the named data connection instead looking for that it embeds the details of the connection into the dataset xsd file.

Programmatically Specify Connection String In Dataset.xsd In Vs2005?

Nov 28, 2009

I want to create a dataset.xsd in vs2005, and I am using access database, so I cant know where my client save the application. Hence I used application.startuppath() to get the application folder and appended "Datadb.msd" to the application.startuppath() so i got the target location for the access databse in client machine. Now to create crystal reports I need the dataset.xsd but while creating a new dataset.xsd it was asking the path for the access database, how to programmatically specify the connection string in dataset.xsd so that i can create a connection string. and use that dataset for creating crystal reports.

VS 2010 Dataset Connection. Where Can Change It In The Program

Jul 22, 2010

I have a dataset that I created through the wizard, to pull the data and their types from the database tables and prevent some of the headaches of creating the tables and data types individually.I am looking for where the database connection for the dataset is defined at so I can change this. The reason being is I have added a database connection dialog where the user will select the location of the database server and I am wanting to pass the connection string from what the user selects to the dataset so the dataset uses this as its connection string instead of the default one I defined in the wizard.Where is this defined at so I can change it?

Proper Setup / Installation Of Sql Server Express?

Feb 24, 2012

I'm currently working on a project that populates a database with CAD document info from approx 20 engineers / draftsmen in an engineering office.I have the program functionality working on my computer. However, I would like to install this on the network and begin doing some addiitonal testing and debugging.

I'm unsure about the proper way to install the database and sql server express on the network. My program, which sends the info to the database, will be installed locally on each persons computer. Of course, the database file will be in a location on the network that everyone has access to.I'm assuming I should install the SQL Server Express on the network server as well. How do I setup the server for the SQL express?For example, when I installed it on my computer, the default server name was "Brian-HPSQLSERVER".How do I specify a new server name when installing the software?

Import Excel Data Into SQL Server - ERROR: "ODBC --Connection To {SQL Server} Servernamesqlservername Failed"

Aug 13, 2010

I am trying to do something fairly simple.. allow my user to import thier data from Excel into SQL Server, where it can be used by the application.To do this, I'm using the fairly simple code that is common everywhere I look:

strFilePath = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + fdlgFileOpen.FileName + ";Extended Properties=Excel 8.0"
connExcel = New OleDbConnection(strFilePath)
connExcel.Open()

[Code]...

Now, on my development computer this code works perfectly. The data imports, and I can go on my merry way.

On the TEST computer, this code throws the error: "ODBC -- Connection to {SQL Server} servernamesqlservername failed." This seems very odd to me, because I'm using exactly the same SQL Server and database to interact with the application, and all the other screens in the application work perfectly. The test computer CAN connect to this SQL Server, but it keeps throwing this error whenever I try import data from Excel.I've tried everything I can think of - using the server's IP address instead of the server name, sending the SQL Server administrator data along with the request, taking out the Trusted_Connection=Yes... nothing works. What is going on here? How can this code work fine on my computer, and hiccup on another?

Strongly Typed Dataset Connection String As Variable?

I have a vb.net 2010 windows forms application with a strongly typed dataset. I am storing the database connection path in a txt file so that the database's location may be changed in the future for whatever reason. The typical location of the connection is the read only app.config from what I gather. I have the datasets modifier set as public but I am having trouble finding how to access the connection object for the adapter.

Strongly Typed DataSet Connection String At Runtime?

I'm sorry but Microsoft did not think about this very well. I have used the dataset wizard to connect to my sql server and the connection string was placed in the app.config file. The only problem with this is that you can not write to it nor change string at runtime. So I need a way for each one of my users to specify their connection either during installation or after installation. I would appreciate any help in this matter.
