View 2 RepliesI'm using this code to update my access database.
[Code]...
If i run the program in debugmode and then do a update it will be saved to the database.(must stop and run again to see the update. How to se the update directly?)
My main problem is that if a build the program and run it outside VS then update never being saved. How can i solve this. I tried using "commit"(maybe totaly wrong) but that didnt work.
I am a freshman by using vb and I had search several website to learn the method to display the previous saved data in a label but none of it is related to my problem.

when reading it back into the textboxes i was needing to chop off the surrounding parameters:

Is there a way to just grab the data in between the brackets like an explode function of sorts?

View 3 RepliesWe have this custom DateTimePicker in our project where you can alter the BackColor and so on. But normally, when you click on the month of a DateTimePicker, it gets highlighted and you can change it with for example the arrow buttons on your keyboard or by typing a different number. Now the problem is that in our DateTimePicker, the highlighting doesn't happen anymore. When you click on for example month, you'll be able to change month but you don't see wether you selected month or something else.
This is the code we have (it's old code from way before I even started working here):
Public Class ucBaseDateTimePicker
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.DateTimePicker

View 2 RepliesI refreshed my data sources to include additional items from the SQL Server databases and it appears that my entire data source from my VB.NET project disappeared.I am using Entity Framework. I may have clicked on something wrong, not quite sure. Unfortunately I can't recreate the Data Source without creating a new Entity and Data Model.I can delete the entry in the App.Config file and recreated it, however things aren't quite right.Is there a way that I can recreate my Data Source from the entry that is in my App.Config file...since that appears to have remained intact.BTW, I can go to my Data Model and successfully refresh from there, however my project isn't connecting to the database so I have quite a number of errors until I can get reconnected.

I'm having a problem setting the maximum number of records that can be saved into Access. The maximum allowance is to be 10. Records are being pulled from a listbox. The whole problem is that if the listbox has 7 items and my table already has 5 records, it still records them, making a total of 12. What I'm looking for is a way to trap that to a max of 10.[code]...
View 2 RepliesWhat I am trying tot achieve is the following:User inputs data in one form that saves to the dataset table no problems. On an edit screen I want the current data saved to appear in this page within all the relevant fields but when saving I want this data to add to the dataset table as an additional line of data so the transaction records are kept.I want to add a new datarow regardless of it saving one change or all 7 changes that are possble.
e.g. Line 1 - user inputs 7 cells of data Line 2 - user amends 2 cells of data Line 3 - user amends 1 cell of data an so on. Unfortunately the terminology for certain items above may not be correct as I am still new to this programming and still on a massive learning curve.At the moment I do not have the code for what I am trying to achieve as I really dont know where to start with it.I am currently able to save the data and have it appear in the "edit" panel however only the cells changed are saved an it overwirtes the initial input.

I'm trying to access a database which is presently saved in .cds format (which I believe is a TClientDataSet) from within my programme written in VB.Net. The reason being, is that the programme I am writing uses the same database as another programme. Both programmes will never being running at the same time, and it is a read-only operation so I could potentially duplicate the database and convert the database to an SQL-compatible format, but obviously this isn't a tidy solution.Is there anyway that I can directly read data from the .cds file with VB.Net? It seems like this would be something that is not too complex and wouldn't be too different from just reading a .csv file.

View 4 RepliesI'm having a problem that I've spent all day researching to try and figure out. It seems that the 'Attachment' type in an Access 2007 DB file is stored as three seperate pieces of data in the one field. If you open up the Relationships view, you can see it in the table itself.
I'm trying to do a simple DVD movie database to keep track of everything I have, and who I've loaned things out to. I'm doing this in part to further my education in VB.NET and to figure out some of the things involved with interacting with databases. I haven't actually written any code yet, read on and you'll understand what's going on.
I've got an Attachment field setup in the database to hold a picture of the movie poster or DVD cover art or something like that to help identify the film, and I named it 'Art' of type 'Attachment' since that will hold an image. Looking at the table in Access I see that 'Art' is broken down into three entries: Art.FileData, Art.FileName, Art.FileType. I'd like to be able to pull the filename and file type and display those on the form, but we'll get to that later.
When I use a drag-n-drop gridview of the database into my blank VB form, the Art field just shows the filename, in my case it's 'screenshot.png' since I just dumped a screen shot in as a test. So, the gridview on the form will see the field and display the filename, which is fine. If I do another Windows form and drag-n-drop a Details View (instead of the grid view), and have the Art field in the table set to a PictureBox (in the Data Sources view, you can highlight a field and then designate it as text or picture
or date or whatever), I end up with a blank box instead of my image.
I haven't typed any code into any of the forms at this point. I'm still in the Designer trying to get the layout and stuff the way I want it, afterwhich I'll start adding buttons and methods and such to search for things, print out a nice list of the films in the database (with and without pictures) and be able to sort out a list of who I've loaned things to (like an overdue book list). But so far, by just dragging and dropping from the Data Sources into the form, Studio automatically creates the dataset and bindings and such to read from the database file, and I can see all of my test data *except* for the image in the PictureBox (it's just blank/empty).
So, if you want to see what's happening and sort this out, then you need to do the following:
1. Create an access database with a table, that table having at least one field of type 'Attachment'
2. put a picture/image into that field as a first entry
3. in Studio (or in my case Express), create a new project, which'll have a blank form in it by default
4. create your database connection by using the 'Add new data source...' wizard for your Access DB file
5. from the Data Sources, expand the table views and change the attachemnt field from the default of TextBox to a PictureBox (you may have to Customize the types to get PictureBox to show up)
6. drag and drop that whole table onto your form, which will automatically create form elements to display the data and stuff
7. Run it, you'll see the problem.
I have no idea what I need to look at or edit or change to get this PictureBox to display the image from the database. Like I said before, if I leave the type set to the default of TextBox in the Data Sources view, then the field will display the filename of the file stored in that field of the database. Having not typed any code yet, I have nothing that I've done that I can edit other than the automatically created stuff that Studio did when I dragged the table into the form.
Being completely unfamiliar with how VB.NET wants to talk to a database (SQL server, Access or otherwise) I decided to create this little program to learn how to do it. But I ran into this problem and need a little help. What I'm looking for is what I need to change in the bindingSource or TableAdapter or TableAdapterManager or BindingsNavigator or whatever resource is binding the fields on the form to the entries in the database so that the PictureBox will get the part of my 'Art' field that actually
holds the image, not the filename or the type. I don't know how to do that, and that's what I'm trying to learn. What I would like to know is how to both get the image to display in the PicutreBox and pull the filename for that image as well to display beneath it or something in the form.
And before someone starts complaining about writing the whole program for me, I must say this is one element of a large personal project and if you read my entire post here you'll see that there are many other elements that will eventually go with it. I just need some help getting this one thing to work. Multiple web searches and such point to a variety of different approaches, many of
which I've tried to implement but nothing has worked. I'd like to do this entirely in .NET with no other dependencies if at all possible, but some of what I've seen so far today suggests using Interop and other things to make this work, but those haven't panned out for me either as of yet. My ultimate goal with this whole program is to have one (albeit probably large) executable file that will encompass the entire program, and to have it all work. After that, then I'll look into things like creating my own modules
and DLL's and such to thin it out, but I'm not even close to that point yet.
Using VB 2008 Express, I've constructed a simple database type app for saving contacts. The table data I save at design time is always saved correctly but data entered at run time seems to get saved even after closing the app and VB. However, after restarting the computer, the newly entered data is usually gone. Why would this be? I've seen a few video tutorials on creating simple database apps and did everything they did and am getting the same problem. I thought it was a configuration problem so I actually re-installed Windows and VB 2008 Express (as well as 2010 Beta 2). I have noticed that in the database explorer, the .mdf file has a red x to the bottom right of the yellow database icon and when I click the + it seems to turn into a black plug. Is this normal?
