Im looking for some advice on the deployment of an application using SQL Compact Edition.My application will only be used by two people on two separate desktops with file sharing enabled.My goal is to deploy the application and have the .sdf file located on one of the desktops in a shared folder. So the other person using the app can connect to that database too.What is the best way to setup the deployment of this so that I can place the DB in lets say c:DBMyDB.sdf
I'm development an application in vb 6.0 with SQLCE but when I try to make an update in a table I recive an error 3251 or -2147217887 (80040e21) [code]...
I am trying to do multiple joins within a single query in SQL Server CE. I know that SQL Server CE doesn't support multiple SELECTs but I can't find any information on multiple INNER JOINs. I keep getting token errors on ProjectItemMaster (after the FROM) and the first INNER JOIN. Warning this is a big ugly query used to generate reports.
[Code]...
If I can't uses multiple INNER JOINs I can I break the query down into a number of different queries but I would prefer not to. So it is easier to maintain a SQL Server CE and an SQL Server version of the program.

I have made a SQL Server Compact Edition Database File (.sdf) and created tables inside. However as I am new to SQL Server I don't know how to connect to the database using VB .NET.Code I have now:
Dim sqlcn As New sqlconnection() Dim sqldataset As New DataSet() Dim sqlda As SqlDataAdapter[code].....
I've developed a software using VB.net and SQL server 2005. This is the connection string that used. Data Source=MY-PC\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=studentInformation; Integrated Security=True But now i want to use SQL server compact edition. So what should i change in this connection string?
I have an application that is currently using DAO and would like to move it to ADO.Net. The problem I'm having is that when I do, I cannot do any queries that take variables if the database is Access or SQL Server Compact Edition. For example: SELECT RecipeName FROM tblMasterRecipe WHERE CategoryID = iCategoryID..The database is a local standalone database. Of course if I use the Standard SQL Server I can add parameters just fine using the TableAdapter Query Configuration Wizard. How do I do something similar for Access or SQL Server Compact Edition? The Create new stored procedure radio button is greayed out when the database is Access or SQL Server Compact Edition.
I'm doing a project with vb.net (smart device) on visual studio 2008 and I need to connect to a database on the device itself (I do not have a physical device to test, only emulation). How should I go about doing it? I would like the database to be in the device on start up.
I've developed a software using VB.Net and SQL compact edition database. (.sdf file) Now i want to add my .sdf file to setup file. I've search internet and create setup file. when i install the software, it is created new folders in program files including my database file and exe file. after double clicking exe file, it is open the software. but when using, it's shown a message "connection current state is closed". but when i run my vb project, it is working well.
Other details.
1) I create data base inside of /bin/debug
2) I've created setup file using this method. File menu --> add --> new project Then, Setup and deployment -> Visual studio installer After that I selected Setup project, then click OK.
3) I add database using this Right click on setup file -> add -> file (In solution explorer window) Then i selected my .sdf file.
This is my connection string
CODE:
It is created only 3 files in Program files. 1. my exe 2. my sdf file 3. System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll file
Ive created one database Sql Server Compact Edition 2005, with one table ("Cliente") I know that I can created my database good, but i have a problem saving information since three textbox, in my table(With columns "Nombre" "Apellido" "Cliente". In my form there is a button save ("Guardar"). When I do click in my button appear the next message : "The column cannot contain null values. [ Column name = Nombre,Table name = Cliente ] " and happen the same with apellido and Id_Cliente. And this happen becouse my code cant save the information....
This is the code
Option Explicit On Option Strict On
Imports System Imports System.IO Imports System.Data
[CODE]...
And the code for my button is:
Private Sub cmdguardar_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdguardar.Click
Dim myconnection As SqlCeConnection Dim mycommand As SqlCeCommand
I am building a VB 2008 Express Edition application.I have built a database (with a single table) using SQL Server Compact 3.5 and have connected it to the project. I am able to view and edit the data using a DataGridView on a second form (tutorial made this very easy). I need to work with the data in the table within the application. how to easily load the entire table into an array or even read the table a row or cell at a time so that I can make all of the data available for manipulation within the application (the tutorials only seem to show how to display the data).
however i have always had issues with databases... so i abandoned it and went into web design instead. Php and sql are so easy there is nothing i cant do with them.I created an Sql compact database which i can connect to and navigate using the following code... but that is it. i cant seem to add to db in any way shape or form.
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Me.AddressTableAdapter1.Fill(Me.TestsqlcDataSet1.address) End Sub
I am new to vb 2008 and I can't seem to figure this out.
When I try to add a database to my project I get this error (Please look at .jpg (Firsterror)
I have selected the correct driver SQL Compact 3.5
It will add the database to the project but the FULL PATH is always incorrect and I can't change it. (Please look at my seconderror.jpg) the correct path is C:SQLSample.sdf
I am trying to compact a Access 97 MDB file. I have found and tried the following code
Private Sub CompactDB() Dim jro As JRO.JetEngine jro = New JRO.JetEngine() jro.CompactDatabase("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=<DATAPATH>", _ "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=<DATAPATH>;") MsgBox("Finished Compacting Database!") End Sub
This codes works and seems to compact the file and it appears in the destination folder but when i try to open the new file i get an error "Unrecognized database format 'DATAPATH'"Is there something i am doing incorrect? the database file sizes range from 5Mb to 100Mb+
I need to create a sound if validation fails. Anyone know how to do that? It can be a wave file or any kind of format.
How can i create a sound in .net compact framework 2.0. using vb.net. I saw codes asking to use system.media class. However in compact framework there do not seem to have this class.
In Visual Basic 2008 Express with SQL Server Compact 3.5 and the Usual DataSet / TableAdapters, My Query is too long:Changing the names, it is a query like this:
SELECT Table1.*, Table3.* FROM Table1 INNER JOIN Table2 ON Table1.ID = Table2.T1ID
[code].....
Problem is, Table1 and Table3 have around 10 and 5 columns each, with rather descriptive names, and The Table adapter is insistent on writing all the columns out and therefore hacks off my command. (It won't take * 's, it always says it can't find the column Table1.* )
Its my first time playing with the sql compact edition. I am noticing a difference vs char fields in a normal sql database. I was wondering if someoen can explain to me how to get the 2 to work the 'same'...Here is my issue I am having.
In Vb.NET I allways use mdb files to my applications.Now, in this one, I need use the Sql Compact Edition.The code isn't the same to connect to the DB?
I'm using this: DIM connString As String = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=|DataDirectory|SITAC.sdf;Password=abc;Persist Security Info=True"
I have the following code which I hoped added a row to my DataGridView and also a record to my database. It does the first part, but not the second. Dim row As DataRow = Me.CCLogDataSet.tblLog.NewRow() row("cc_log_contract") = Me.txt_Log_Add_Contract.Text row("cc_log_registration") = Me.mtb_Log_Add_Registration.Text.ToUpper() row("cc_log_milage") = Me.txt_Log_Add_Milage.Text [Code] ..... It seems to be storing the data in memory? As the data in the DataGridView is persistant, even after a Relaunch of the application. However, why I query the database, there are no records in it.
I need a simple embedded database for a relatively small database size (< 100MB, but in most cases < 20MB) and maximum 1-2 concurrent users/connections on average. It must be able to protect/encrypt it's data with a login.
