VB 2008 Connectivity To SQL Server 2008
Aug 13, 2009
I making a software in VB 2008 that connects to a SQL database. I have setup the connection on my machine but the problem is that this software is a project for university and i have to present it on a laptop, so is there a way for me to move the software to the laptop and connect it to the database on the laptop, which already has SQL installed, without changing a lot of code, because right now every time i move to program to the laptop i end up changing the connection code for every Form. I know this is a bit off the topic, but is there also a way to move my SQL database files to the laptop or do I have to create the same database on the laptop again.

I am trying to verify connectivity from my application to various servers - For now I am only concerned with mail servers... (later SQL etc)Before anyone gets all upset and thinking this is for SPAM - wrong - these are to confirm connectivity from the application for sending logs OR to ensure the SQL conneciton is working appropriately - Those that want to SPAM can do this simply by getting LINUX and doing it for free with ANY mail client (I add this ONLY because MOST SMTP threads go unanswered... which is silly... there are MANY good reasons to work with mail within an application.....)So what I have tried is opening a telnet session, grabbing the output, and going from there...But it is not working.... the output contains nothing specific to the telnet session I initiate - and.... of course from the command prompt manually i DO get the proper responses
[code]...
I get the command prompt header, I see the commands... I see the prompts... but after the telnet command there is nothing I am assuming there is an issue redirecting telnet info and the telnet session terminates the second I try to read the data

I am creating a small app in VS2008 and have to use an Access DB. I have Office 2007 loaded on my machine. I use the Create DataSource Wizard to set things up, when I declare all of the information and test that connection and it works. I save the connection string and click Next: at that point I get the following error message in a popup dialog box:
'Microsoft.visualstudio.datadesign.syncdesigner.syncfacade.syncmanager' from assembly
'Microsoft.visualstudio.datadesign.syncdesigner.dslpackage, version=9.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a;'
how to fix this?

I am using Visual Studio 2010. I want to do database connectivity using VB.Net and MS SQL Server 2005. I know 1 way of doing this. Following are the steps...
1. Create a new Data Source Using Data Sources Window.
2. Select the appropriate view like details view/ data grid view for that data source
3. Drag that data source on your form and connectivity is done. Also all the controls are created by the visual studio.
This feature is really cool but I want to learn database connectivity by pure coding without using such advanced features. Also is it possible to do connectivity from a class library ?

I have this code, to read image (saved as varbinary(max) in database):
Private Sub ReadImage()
Dim connection As New SqlConnection(strConnectionString)
Dim command As New SqlCommand("SELECT [Image] FROM z1 WHERE x=1 AND y=1", connection)
[code]....
But it isn't very convenient code. It reads bytes from table, save them to file, and finally open file as image.How can I read it directly to image, without saving as file?

windows service app I am developing to audit events in the Windows Security Event Log. I am using the EventLog class to read entries from the "Security" event log. I have set the log to raise events when an entry is written so I can parse the data. Here is where my problem comes in. If I run the service on Windows 2003 I can get all the data I need from each entry, but when installed on Server 2008 the EventLogEntry ".message" property comes back with useless data like this, "The description for Event ID '4738' in Source 'Microsoft-Windows-Security-Auditing' cannot be found." Under Server 2003 the message property has good data. Using the Event Log Viewer in Server 2008 I can see that it is rendering the correct data, but I am having a heak of a time doing the same. The "replacementStrings" property has the corresponding data that I need, but it appears to involve some other steps to get the data localized to the event provider, but I do not know how to do that.
I also checked the registry HKLMSystemCurrentControlSetServicesEventlogSecuritySecurity on both the 2003 servers and 2008 servers. They are identical execpt the 2003 has an entry the 2008 server does not:
String Type: GuidMessageFile
Value: %systemroot%system32NtMarta.dll

I have developed a VB.NET program using a strongly typed dataset. This dataset has its connection to a SQL Server 2008 R2. The software should now be additionally used offline. The database should be exported to a *.sdf database. If no connection to the SQL server is produced, the software have to try to connect to the *.sdf database.I would like to achieve:
1. Export the data in the SQL Server 2008 R2 database to a local *.sdf file.
2. This *.sdf file has to work as an alternate connection string in the strongly typed dataset.

I have simple code that connects to Sql database... (well it doesn't)
VB
Dim objConn As New SqlConnection("Server=localhost;uid=***;pwd=***;database=***")
objConn.Open()
ERROR MESSAGE:A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)But looks like something is wrong with "localhost" thing. Any help? Where can I get name of (my) server?

We are currently using Access 97 as our database. This resides on the remote farm server (which is a Windows 2008 R2 server). We are using a front end vb6 exe which accesses the back end data.Occasionally we are getting corruption to our database and we have to make sure everyone exits the software to allow us to repair/compact it. There are 2 physical servers, each running 2 virtual machines. When the user logs onto the farm using RDP, they go to one of these 4 virtual machines.We are getting all kinds of corruption, some where # characters have been inserted into the top of one table, some where the indexes are corrupted, and some where access needs to repair the database.

We recently upgraded our job server to Windows Server 2008. We have jobs we run manually in a folder (c:Custom Programs). Some programs are console programs others are have a gui. This one program has a gui.It also has a progress bar that shows the progress of the job when you click the go button. Of course it spawns a thread to do the processing. This thread creates a log file to write errors and other things too.
The problem is when the program goes to create the log file an access not authorized error is thrown. I checked the permission on the folder. All users are allowed to create/edit/append/execute. Pretty much everything except take ownership. Also, there's nothing that denies anything. So I see no reason why this isn't working. We can get this to work by using the run as administrator option when we first run the program. However, we don't view this as unacceptable solution. My only thought is the spawned thread isn't getting the same permission set as the program. Am I correct or does something think it's something else.

I am new to VB 2008 and ADO .net and Sql Server 2008 (Management Studio). I am working through a book about professional vb programming. I have downloaded the sample Northwind database and have connected and used this database without any problem. I wanted to connect to my database that I created but to no avail.
I'm having access problems. It appears that the permissions are granted for users to select, update, but, in running the program, debug stops at the open line and can't access the database. The connection string is: "Data source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10.SQLEXPRESSMSSQLDATACustomer1.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True". The error message is: Access is denied. By the way, these are all express editions.

how to create a client/server... But I couldn't... I don't want anything fancy. Just want the client to send the server 4 numbers, depending on the user's choice; after that, the server would turn off the pc, restart it, etc. It all depends on the number received. Is there a rather "simple" way to do it? If it's not to much trouble you could use Atheist's example. (Btw I don't understand the code and, yes, I've checked on [URL])

I need to obtain the sql server name of a server based on its DNS name.
I have looked at the system.net methods
servername = Dns.GetHostEntry("ReportServer")
servername = Dns.GetHostByName("ReportServer")
But they return ReportServer.Group.Local rather than the sql server name SQL0001.
Is there another method I could try?
