VS 2005 Datatable Differences Between Databases
Dec 2, 2010
I probably shouldn't go down these roads, but stuff like this just gets to bugging me. Of course, with any of three possible database backends I should expect some quirks.I have a table that has one primary key field and several NOT NULL fields.So I do a SELECT * from the table and populate a .net datatable with the results.I can create a new row for the table, add the value for the primary key field, and then add the new row to the datatable. Everything works fine in Access.But in Oracle the situation is different.I have to supply values for all the NOT NULL fields before I can add the row to the datatable. As far as I can tell the two tables are the same in the two databases in both databases there is one PK field and the same fields are defined as NOT NULL. So why does the .net data provider for Oracle care when I try to add a row that does not have values in a NOT NULL field and the Access provider not?

I have a datatable and I apply a filter to the defaultview.rowfilter property of that datatable. If I then loop through the rows collection of the datatable, will I only be able to see those rows that the filter applies to, or will it loop through all the rows?

How do I display may sql databases in listbox without connection? Is it possible? Right now I have this:
Dim connString As String = "Data Source=.sqlExpress; Integrated Security=True;"
Using sqlConn As New SqlConnection(connString)
sqlConn.Open()
Dim tblDatabases As DataTable = sqlConn.GetSchema("Databases")
sqlConn.Close()
For Each row As DataRow In tblDatabases.Rows
ListBox1.Items.Add(row("database_name"))
Next
End Using
I am doing this because I wanted the user to create the connection for the main application to use. Right now, i have a combobox with items, MyServ/SQLexpress and ./SQLExpress. I have a textbox and a listbox where the user will choose from the items from the listbox which will then display in the textbox.... I dont like to explicitly put in my code this
=.sqlExpress
In one of my button I have this code
builder("Data Source") = Me.cboDataSource.Text.Trim
builder("Integrated Security") = True
builder("Initial Catalog") = Me.txtDBName.Text.Trim
builder.ConnectTimeout = 30

I have a datagrid which has been bound to a datatable.If I sort the grig lets say by surname order I would like to export that datatable in that sorted order but whenever I do it never seems to be sorted.sorted order.
Basically what I see in the grid is how I want my exported table to be.

i have a datatable that contains numerous postcodes in the following format[code].....
there is always a space before the last 3 characters now i need to filter the datatable against a list of excluded postcode areas..these are the following format:-
BT1
BT2
BT4
BT40
so its either 2 letters & 1 number or 2 letters & 2 numbers, no 2nd part to the post code..i have a little function which builds the string, and then removes the rows from the dataset like so (ive pasted in an example postcode string)....[code]....
which obviously brings out no records as they all have full postcodes the issue is, i need to be comparing only the first half of postcode BTxx bit but cannot use a % wildcard, as this then would bring out BT40's when i only want, in this example, BT2 & BT4's..so is there a way to make it compare against the first half of the postcode?

I'm adding a DateTime DataColumn to a DataTable like this:
Dim colDate As DataColumn = New DataColumn("Date")
colDate.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.DateTime")
dt.Columns.Add(colDate)
Then when I try to add it to my datatable, if the value is Nothing I get an error saying string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. I'm having trouble getting this to work.

I am working with two different connections because the information I need is stored in two different locations. One being Oracle, the other being Access. I pull all the information I need from Access with the exception of one field which I pull from Oracle. When I add this field to my datatable, it adds it to the end. I am wanting the column that I add to be between column 1 and 2 of my current datatable. Anyone know the best way to do this? From what I could find, there wasn't a way to re-arrange columns. Here is my code.
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(" SELECT tblSummary.WorkOrderNumber, tblLabor.Crew, tblLabor.NumberOfMechanics, tblLabor.NumberOfHoursPerMechanic, tblTasks.TaskNumber, tblTasks.TaskDescription FROM (tblLabor tblLabor INNER JOIN tblTasks tblTasks ON

I did this code to iterate through the data present in the DataTable:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Dim con As New OleDbConnection
[Code]....
But this code always gives the last value of a particular row as its output.
I want to specify a particular column and a particular row of the DataTable and fetch the corresponding result:How to do this?

My program reads a 3rd party .txt file using OleDb and reads the file into a datatable. It's overall working fine except a user will occasionally have a problem reading a file. At this point.
Line that gets hung up
Try
Dim comm1 As New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM " & safeFileName & " Where " & Status & " = '" & StatusClosed & "'", con)
Dim dasold As New OleDbDataAdapter(comm1)
dasold.Fill(dtsold)
AddColsold()
[Code] .....
It can not retrieve a date for one of the fields, then gives error and does not get dates for each records after the one it gets hung up on but the date is in the file. If I open the file in excel and play with the column sizing, for instance just autoformat column width then it read the date and will work fine. I have looked at the file in notepad and cant see anything wrong in particular on the record it gets hung up on. I have no control over the .txt file since it comes form a 3rd party.

Can anyone demonstrate with an example how to shift the position of a datacolumn in a specific position after it is added at the end of a datatable.For example lets say I have a datatable with 9 columns and 5 rows. Now I added a 10th column. However I need this new column as the 5th column which requires shifting. How do I perform this shifting?

I am creating a datatable and then adding a column to it which is filled with data from existing column and parsed into correct format DateSold is my existing column from my datafile and I create NewDateSold by adding the column to the existing table and then parsing the information in date format.
This is added to a binding source which then is used to populate a combobox I want to be able to sort the combo box by NewDateSold Desc I was able to this on the original column by simply using the "order By" in my query, it seems now that I added new column it is no longer sorted? I am finding different solution such as using dataview and wish to know the best way to do this

I am building a custom search control in VB.NET and came across a problem getting distinct records into my datagridview. I want to bring exact matches back first so I run 2 of the same query on the same table with a slight difference:
select ... like "code%"
select ... like "%code%"
I have a datatable that I need to get distinct records from; I am append records from a sql query to the end of the datatable so I cannot use a union in sql to return the dataset (I want to preserve the order which the rows are added) I have been using this which is working fine for 2 fields:
dt2 = dt.DefaultView.ToTable(True, "Code", "Name")
But when I have 3 (or more) fields I get duplicates ONLY for the row I am querying:
dt2 = dt.DefaultView.ToTable(True, "Code", "Name", "Initial")
select ... like "initial%"
select ... like "%intial%"
I am clearing the datagridview.source before rebuilding this. Is there a way to get the distinct rows this way or should I just build something myself to remove the duplicates from the second datatable before appending them to the new table?

I have created a datatable and now i need to print it,so i did the following:
Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles PrintDocument1.PrintPage
Dim xPos As Single = 20
[CODE]...
The code works fine.But in the above code as you can see that i am printing the each rows content of the datatable one by one and after printing all the contents of a single row i am looping the code again for printing each and every row present in the datatable. So i want to know that inspite of printing each and every data present in the row of the datatable,is it possible to print the entire datarow at a time and then loop through all the rows present in the datatable?

What are the differences between 32 and 64-bit .NET (4) applications?Often 32-bit applications have problems running on 64-bit machines and conversely. I know I can declare an integer as int32 and int64 (certainly int64 on 32-bit systems make problems). Are there other differences between programming an 32 OR 64-bit or a both 32 AND 64-bit compatible application?

We have legacy character codes that we want to store as numbers in a new system. To increase readibility and general understanding in the code for devs making the migration, I want to do Enums like this..
[Code]...
With this setup, the code will be readable (imagine If Record.Status = Status.Open), and yet the values will be stored in the database as small numbers so it will be efficient. However... I am a VB.NET guy, but everybody wants to code in C#, so I need this sort of structure in C#.After Googling, I discovered the the general .NET equivalent of AscW is Convert.ToInt32("C"). When I try to use that statement in an enum, I get the compiler error "Constant Expression Required".
