Updating Two Tables Using A Databinding From Within A Form?
May 16, 2011
I have three tables Tasks, Notes & CallTypes Each item in Tasks and Notes has a relationship to CallTypes and my form edits work fine. However: Notes only belong to tasks, and when i update the note record we will need to change the CallType for the Task as well as for the Note and they could both be different.
I have the Notes working fine, but i cannot update the tasks. I have created a databindng on to a form from the datasources window. All the notes fields are ok and are working I then add the calltype field from the tasks, draged from the data sources window (i dont want all of the tasks fields, just the calltype).
The code does not through up errors, but when i save the form it only updates the notes and not the tasks.
I have a web application and on page is an update page to update some profile information. Below is the code I am using to update the table. But I think it is wrong. Does anything stick out? The connection string works cause it is used to read the database to get the profile information, I just removed it due to it containing password/login info for the db.player is the class of properties that contains player information and ds is the dataset, but I would like to update the database itself online.
After making the changes or adding a record I use invoke childmethod from my toolbar to call these subs. The first table updates and adds, but the second does not. I have set all of my textboxes databindings and double checked them. I get no error, but it does not update the second table. What am I doing wrong?
Public Sub AddRecord() 'Clear out the input data fields on a new Add. ClearInputFields()
|-Table 1 |--PK IDT1 |--Name field |-Table 2 |--PK ID |--FK IDT1 |--Name field
I want to bind Table 1 to combobox1 and Table 2 to combobox2 so as when someone selects a value in combobox1, combobox2 populates with only the rows with the FK IDT1 value from combobox1. Is this possible with databinding or do I have to code it?
I have a ProbationComboBox with the SelectedValue bound to a RegistrationBindingSource, and the DisplayMember bound to a ProbationBindingSource. [code]
I am creating a form in VB to enter customer sales invoices and need to update two tables i.e. InvoiceHeader and InoviceDetails. The Invoice details can have more than one line for one Invoice header. I was wondering if there is any thing like Access subforms or how can I update both tables through an SQL statement.
I have a Database with the following tables, PolicyHolder, Beneficiary, FinacialDetails, Gender, Nationality, Relationship, Income. They are all linked by ClientID primary key of the PolicyHolder table.
When i'm adding my data in the Beneficiary table using a DataGridView i get an error when im adding the second entry saying - FK ClientID already has a value and this value cannot be duplicated. I want the FK ClientID value to be saved on every record i enter under Beneficiary.
I'm Using vb 2008 and an access DB.I have 2 tables in the DB which is transaction and products.When a Customer Buy product the transaction will record and the stock of that product will deduct accdg to the quantity bought by the customer. Myproblem is products table didn't update. Stock of that product still didn't change.
I have one DataSet and two forms, Customers and Efficiency. When I make changes to the Customers table (Delete a Customer for instance) It does not reflect the changes on the Efficiency table. The default form is Efficiency and I'm calling the Customers form from within the Efficiency form. I make the change in the Customer form, I then close the Customer form and call the Efficiency form back. The data is not updated on the Efficiency side until I close the application and re-open it. what code I need and where to inject this code?
I have a project, which divided into three categories. i) Presentation layer ii) business layer, and iii) Data Execution Layer. Business layer communicate between 1st and 3rd layer. here my problem is I want update some tables through transaction batch. Here I am facing logical concept who to update transaction batch in business layer or data execution layer.
I've been searching all day about this and can't find a solution..I'm fairly new to VB and SQL Queries, so I apologize if I sound a little daft.Basically I'm working on a project in VB 2010 where a user can add new teams, players, also create matches between teams and record the score. I have done nearly all forms, but now I need to show data from 2 tables on one form and the method I used for 1 table doesn't work.I have 4 tables:team, player, match & matchdata and they are linked like this:
Using; - vb2008 Express, data on ACCESS 2003, objective; - to update a separate table not on the original query.From what i have gathered i need to add a second table adapter to make the changes to a related field in another table. Since i already have the 1st table adapter the second does not appear as easy as the second (dragn the data set over).
So i suppose i need to create the second table adapters programmatically? [URL]..I see that because they are not nested they need to each be declared.. right? If so that is where my issue lies. I'm having a problem with how to declare them both now that there must be two.
i have 3 tables t1,t2,t3..if i update t1,t2 and t3 must also be updated.i have just been tried
UPDATE t1,t2,t3 SET t1.f1='sample',t2.f1='sample',t3.f1='sample' WHERE t1.f1='test' and t2.f1='test' and t1.f1='test'
using this,update fails if t2 and t3 could not find 'test' in their fields,if i use OR all records will be..i have also tried JOINS
Update tbl_maincat AS m LEFT JOIN tbl_maincat AS m2 ON m.cTitle = m2.cTitle, tbl_main AS c LEFT JOIN tbl_main AS c2 ON c.MainCat = c2.Maincat, tbl_subcat AS s LEFT JOIN tbl_subcat AS s2 ON s.csCat = s2.csCat

I have made a form that creates a table in a database based off of the text a user inputs into a text box.I would like to then display that table in a DataGridView on the form so that the user can update the data in that table.Is there any way that i can add those tables to the dataset and get them to display in the DataGridView after the user clicks the create table button?
In my Project I have a Dialog Box (MonkeyList), a Database(MonkeyList.sdf), and DataGridView1. DataGridView1 is on the MonkeyList DialogBox. I want to save changes to the table when OK_Button is clicked.
I'm using simple data binding and have in total 3 fields on my Form and 2 of them are hidden. The two hidden fields are calculated by filling in the first one. bellow you find the code I'm using, when the update is done only the first field that is fill in is written to the Database. How can I change the code to get all 3 of them written to the Database
Public Class frmLicenseKey Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form Dim dsLicenseKeyInfo As DataSet
I have a form that with a list of text boxes. My target is simply binding these controls to an XML file so that whenever the file contents are changed externally, the text box values change dynamically. I will have an external application edit the XML file and overwrite the existing one.
I am missing something simple. I know how to bind asp.net datagrids and webforms, but this is my first time trying to bind to an object list of T in a windows form. (I am use to using datasets with datatables and im trying to get away from doing that).I have a simple object list that gets populated on the form load. However if I click a button to add a dummy record the datagridview does not display the new record added. The bindingNavigator (if clicked nextrecord) and "debug stops" all show that the new record I just added to the object list is there.
Even adding the datasource object in the watch list shows the new records are there. They are just not displaying.
I cannot seem to figure out as to why the new record is not being displayed in the datagridview when I can see the record got clearly added to the datasource.
I would like to know the best, or standard, way to accomplish real-time client updates in a small multi-user application using an access data table as a data source.Specifically, this application will be used by 3-4 people. It uses a datatable which is filled on form load and bound to a datagrid at design time. The datatable is stored on a shared drive. The data table on the shared drive is updated in two ways:
1) Users can update the datagrid which then updates the datatable on the shared drive via the data adapter's Update method.
2) A server application does some work on some text files, periodically updating the data table.
I need the clients to reflect the changes to the data table on the shared drive as closely to real-time as possible. I know that the data table stored in memory on the client is disconnected from the data table on the shared drive, so I must query again to get the updates.
1) Is there an alternvative model I can use which is connected, and which will automatically reflect the updates in the data table on the shared drive?
2) If not, what is the best way to check for changes in the data table (so I can know when to call the data adapter fill method)? I am planning to poll the drive for a change to the .mdb file, raise an event and then fill the data adapter when the event is triggered. I am using this method successfully now to check for changes to a text file in another application, and I know how to implement it?

I had issues in refreshing a form that is bound to different tables in a database. Various forms allow the user to change and add and update information on the form via the database. I had created a public sub in that form that the other forms could call, after saving the data, that was supposed to refresh the data on the main form. This was not working so I researched the problem. I came across this page which pertains to Form.Activated: [url]
I placed all of the table adapter fills into this event, instead of in Form_Load, and it seems to work now, when the form first loads, and when other forms update data. My question is does anyone have experience using this and what are the consequences, if any, in using this to reload/refresh the data showing on the form?
I have to write an application that consists of mainly one main form, but several different things I wanna display. Pretty standard I guess. So there is a menu, some controls, and the main stuff below (ranging form graphs, tables, dropdown boxes, print preview, etc). I would like to use it like one would use frames in html, design an object that is limited to a box or panel that I define. The literature I have does not give me a clear idea of how to do this (yet). The most obvious seem to be the use of MDI, open a predefined form with no borders, maximize it before showing and remove all minimize/maximize options. But that does not work so well. The form inside the MDI parent does not fit the size that is given for it when it is loaded. e.g.
[CODE]:......................
So my main question is: Is MDI the way to go here at all or are there better/easyer ways to achieve this? If MDI is the way to go, how do I sucessfully restrict a child form inside another object, without giving the user any opportunity to resize (i noticed that I have minnimize/maximize/close buttons, even if I disable them on the child forms themselves)
I have two forms....Mainform is filled with controls that are databound to a datasource.....then I have a child form that is used to edit data from parent form.......the data that is displayed on the child form uses the Filter() method of the binding source to display data only for the customer selected......
The child form has the standard OK and CANCEL buttons set up as dialog result.......after I edit the content in child form, the changes are displayed on the child form correctly......but when closing the child form and going back to the parent form the changes dont appear there unless I restart the application.....I also tried adding the tableadapter.update/fill method in the 'OK' dialog result event handler and it still doesnt work......
How can I make the changes take effect on the parent form without restarting the application?
I am working on a Windows Forms application in visual basic and one of the features is that it is supposed to access www.usps.com/zip4 and fill in the fields and then display the page in a window with auto-filled fields for the user to edit and submit. Basically I instantiate a WebBrowser, I find each of the fields (two text and a drop-down list) using the webbrowser.Document.GetElementById(id).setAttribute("value", newvalue). I do this for each text field and for the drop down I used setAttribute("value", val) and setAttribute("selectedIndex", index). After I'm done, I attach this webBrowser to a form that I created using form.Controls.Add(webBrowser) and then I call form.showDialog(Me). I have been getting really erroneous behavior. First of all, when this function is called the first time, all the text fields show up ok, but the selection field stays at zero. Neither changing the value nor the selectedIndex changes the actual selection in the drop down list when it's displayed. Then, if I exit this window and have the function called again, all the text is gone and the drop down list appears to be updated with the correct selection; however, it can't be because when I fill in the information and click submit, I get an error saying that I must select a state.
I use Visual Basic 2010 Express. I want to create a WinForm app in which there are several buttons "table1", "table2"... Each button must display the corresponding table of a database in a specified region of the same form.
I'm able to link a MS Access database (.accdb) file to the app. But, how do I create that dynamic area whose content would be one of the database tables of the linked database? I tried using DataGridView, but I'm a newbie and I'm missing something; it doesn't work.
