I am importing alot of data from a text file into an access database with the code below. (From a Comma delimited text file) The problem is that I do not want to import duplicate records. I have the "IDNr" column in my access database set to "not allow duplicates" and need my code to check if there is already a record in the database before trying to import the data. Otherwise it will just give me an error or not import the rest of the data. I could do to make sure that there are no duplicates for the IDNr column?
I have a small database. 2 main tables called CaseDetails and Checks.Each record in CaseDetails can have 3 checks recorded against it in the Checks table. But can only have one check of each type (check types 1, 2, 3).I have 3 linkbuttons which will take the user to the input form for each 'check'. If a 'check' already exists i want to hide the linkbutton that takes the user to that 'check type' input form (the 3 input forms have different fields).So what i need to do, is connect to the SQL database and see if a record exists for each 'check type' and hide the linkbutton to prevent users from entering another record with the same 'check type'?I have tried reading the reults into an array and examining that array, but havent been able to do so.
I have a tenant details form that has a field called TenantID, I also have a Lease table that also has a TenantID field, what I want to do is click the lease button, check to see if the lease already exists, if it does open the lease form to that record. If not then open the lease form to a New record so the user can enter all the information for that lease.

I am using VS 2008 and MySQL. Which one of the following methods is efficient or a proper one to check if record exists or not before making an attempt to insert.

Working on an VB/ASP website in Visual Studio 2008. Getting the error "You cannot add or change a record because a related record is required in table 'abc'
It is true that table xyz (the target of the INSERT) is in a parent-child relationship with table abc. The PK in abc is a column RequestID_lng. The FK column in xyz is also named RequestID_lng
This is the only relationship these 2 tables are in.
I am trying to add a row in xyz with a value of 45 in the FK. There is already, previous to this action, a row in table abc with a value of 45 in the PK. So the parent already exists for this child.
I have used the watch window to copy my SQL code for the INSERT query that is being executed. I pasted that code into a new query in the Access DB and executed it without problem - it actually added the row that .Net should have.[code]...

I want this to occur on Page_Load but have not been able to figure it out so far.

I have read a lot about SQL and can't find how it is useful for anything accept business applications that add, delete or update records as long as you hard code in a name. I don't use datagrids and I never display a table. how to do a few things, I can figure the rest out.

This is the standard way of checking if URL exists [code]....
return true; } catch (Exception ex) { return false; } But my problem is that we have to check it for around 100 URL's. It takes more then 2 minutes to check for all as it is trying to get response of all of them. Is there any way that we can check if URL exists without getting complete Response so that total response time is less.
In my code, I want to check if a referrer url exists and if the referrer url contains a specific sub string. I know how to check for the sub string:
If( InStr( Request.UrlReferrer.ToString(), "some sub string here" ) > 0 ) Then
But I don't know how to check if a referrer exists or not. No refer exists if the url is entered in manually in the address bar. So I tried this, but this does not work:
If (Not (Request.UrlReferrer.ToString() = "")) And (InStr(Request.UrlReferrer.ToString(), "some sub string here") > 0) Then

But dr("age") column is not available in SQLserver datbase How can I check if a column exists or not.[code]
I am using Caspol.exe to install a custom Permission set and add Code Groups for my .Net 2.0 Windows Application.
I have created a Console Application that uses caspol.exe to add Permission Set and Code Groups. I first install the Permission Set and if I do not get an error, I continue to install the Code Groups
Now sometimes I need to add a new Code Group to the client machine, so I make the changes to the console app and it is executed on the client machine. If the client machine already has the Permission Set installed, it returns an error and stops the further processing.
So, I want to know if I can check whether a custom Permission Set is already added or not?

I am trying to figure out how to check if a registry key exists. If it does, do nothing, if it doesn't, recreate it.I've found numerous resources on the subject, and have made progress, but one little thing is stoping me.[code]The problem is that this reports "Not Found", even though the key 'regkey' exists in the registry. Also, if I remove 'regkey' from the code, it reports "Found". So it does find the subdirectory in the registry.My question is, how do I check to see if the 'regkey' exists? I'm running Windows XP Pro SP2.
