I'm trying to open a connection and create an SQL statement with two different tables in different Access DBs. Is this possible? I'd like to join the tables in a query.
Is there a great advantage in splitting somewhat large Access databases? Or is it best to just create a large access database with many tables?
Basically for normal select queries from my database I have no problems as I would put the following and then bind it to a controller to display the iteam, however now I am trying to query sum of a field from the database, but I think it should be different as It's giving a Nullable value:
SELECT SUM(PointsRedeemed) AS tAward
FROM [Transaction]
WHERE (BusinessId = ?) AND (CardNo = ?)

I'm looking for the most efficient way to query an Access table from VB.Net. I think throughout the life of a run I'm going to need to query the table ~1,000,000 times. I'm using Access 2003 to hold my data. What I've been doing so far is this:

I am querying the MS Access Database to display the results in a datagridview. This is my
Dim ConnString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=data.mdb"
Dim SQLString As String = "SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = Yes"
Dim OleDBConn1 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(ConnString)
[code]....
The variable Selected from the query statement ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = Yes") is a Boolean in the MS Access Database. However, this statement returns empty result even though most of the values for Selected are Yes. In the access database however, if I enter a 'Yes' for the value of Selected, it shows up as -1 and 'No' shows up as 0. So I even tried changing the query statement to ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = -1") and also ("SELECT * FROM Groups where Selected = 'Yes'") but none of them work. Can you please help me fixing this query because I can't change the database?Also if I change the query statement to ("SELECT * FROM Groups"), then all the data shows in the datagridview, however, the values for Selected column do not display. Instead I see check boxes and I can't click them. How can I display the values correctly?
I have an access database with a table called [yearly stats cape town] This table has the following relevant columns to my query. [CASE NO], [B/W/C] [1ST APP MAG CRT].The goal of the windows form I am doing is to return the total number of unique case where [B/W/C] = C (in custody) and [1ST APP MAG CRT] contains a date longer than 6 months ago from the current system date. To determine the total amount of cases I use the following query.
SELECT COUNT(*) AS [CASE NO]
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT [CASE NO] AS [CASE NO 2]
FROM [YEARLY STATS CAPE TOWN]) derivedtbl_1
I am trying to search for the occurence of a string within MS Access database with 1000000 records using VB.Net. The program does not respond once it is run or it is taking a very long time. However, if I reduce the size of the database the program runs.[code]...

Im using this little function to search for text within some downloaded HTML source:
Public Function GetStringBetween(ByVal InputText As String, _
ByVal starttext As String, _
ByVal endtext As String)
Dim lnTextStart As Long
Dim lnTextEnd As Long
lnTextStart = InStr(StartPosition, InputText, starttext, vbTextCompare) + Len(starttext)
lnTextEnd = InStr(lnTextStart, InputText, endtext, vbTextCompare)
If lnTextStart >= (StartPosition + Len(starttext)) And lnTextEnd > lnTextStart Then
GetStringBetween = Mid$(InputText, lnTextStart, lnTextEnd - lnTextStart)
Else
GetStringBetween = "ERROR"
End If
End Function
It works great, but i need to be able to search for something that spans over 2 lines. E.g.
Sam works in a shop from the hours
of 09:00 to 15:00
I want to search for the words "hours of" - but because they are on seperate lines, it cannot find it.
I have tried "hours" & Environment.NewLine & "of" - and other variants of envirmonment.newline (knowing they all return the same value, but, hey, you gotta try) but to no avail. Surely there must be some sort of syntax to ge around this?
Any ideas?
Greetings,
My app saves a bunch of stuff to an XML file. This is my line of code-
Using writer As XmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create("C:vdx2kMWSREEXTReportsInboxTK" & frmCitation.txtCiteNumber.Text & "Traff.xml", settings)
So that saves it at that specific location.
I need to duplicate the XML and have it also save in another location. I've been at this for days, Googling, searching, trying different things and now I need to turn here for help.
Any ideas?

View 2 RepliesBasically I try to get a DataGridView and a BindingSource working inside a class. I define them by:
Dim TempDGV3 As DataGridView = New DataGridView
Dim TestBinding As BindingSource = New BindingSource
When I manually add columns to the DataGridView, it works perfectly, but when I set it's DataSource to a bindingsource from a base class, it doesn't load data and keeps throwing 'object does not exist' errors. The bindingsource mentioned here did, however, work on other DataGridViews that are defined in the base class (and implemented in the form to which the base class belongs)
Same for the BindingSource(not the above mentioned, but the one I try to create inside the class in the beginning of this post). I try to use it in the following way:
TestBinding.DataSource = TempDGV3
TestBinding.Filter = filterString()
SourceDataGridView.DataSource = TestBinding
But the BindingSource keeps returning 'Nothing' for it's datasource and basically doesn't work. However, the SourceDataGridView mentioned here gets filled with 63 columns with "AllowUserToAddRows" and other properties when the columns names are asked.
So my question is: how do I get the BindingSource and the DataGridView to work in this class? I'm getting the feeling I'm missing out on something very obviously here. If that's not the case, I can report back with more code?
This is a very basic newbie question, but I still haven't worked it out yet. I have a fair amount of code that I want carried out inside my Form1_Mousemove event, but I also want the exact same code inside the Form1_MoveClick event. I assume the best solution is to take all of the code and put it inside a seperate procedure and call it from both events? Or is it possible to call one of the events manually so inside my Mouseclick event, could I force a call to the Mousemove event?

I'm relatively new to the vb.net framework and object oriented programming. After perusing the threads for a few hours I can't quite find an answer so I'm posting this thread. I'm not necessarily looking for code examples. I just want to know if it's possible and where to look next. Basically I'm trying to build a starter application that will help me learn programming. One of the main things I want to do is to be able to dynamically (at run time) create a set of information (data) that can be manipulated via a set of static (and/or dynamic) functions/calculations. The reason I need it to be dynamic is because even though this program is really just for my own fun and perusal on my own machine (and I want it to be able to run without any outside connections (i.e. databases or servers) the data itself is going to be location (i.e.State of residence or even city) specific. Essentially most of the data will be numerical and can be of the integer type. But I'd like to be able to adjust and create new data sets if desired. From everything I've read and researched I haven't found a way to do this (at least now without an excessive amount of coding that is above my expertise). So I want to know if there is a way to do this that is relatively simple.
View 2 RepliesI did this before, but i totally forgot how to do it.I have an array, the array contains strings with 2 seperators.like so:

I have a program in VB.NET 2005. At some point I have to open an Access2003-Application for getting data in it. I do that by pretending my program is a human user and let it do all the work in Access as a human user would do. Filling Fields, pressing buttons etc. I use the Primary Interop Assemblies for that. So far so good. That code is in use for over half a year now. In the last week I got Office 2007 installed on my machine. Of course I tested the installed version of my program if everthing still works. Every test was succesfull. But if I do the same tests in Visual Studio it always crashes.
All I get is this Errormessage: {"Das COM-Objekt des Typs "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.FormClass" kann nicht in den Schnittstellentyp "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access._Form3" umgewandelt werden.

I have two Access database, say database One.mdb and Two.mdb. I want to use VB2005 to export tblCustomer from One.mdb to Two.mdb, and replace the existing tblCustomer in Two.mdb, during run time. I basically want to simulate the export function that is available in MS Access (which can export one table from one Access database to another) with VB2005 during run time. I can think of a way by querying the table to a dataset and then delete everything on the other database before filling the table in that database with the dataset. However, there should be something simpler and faster than that, shouldn't it? Any idea?

The query is to search the Date_Joined field for date less than the date that the user input with the DTP. With the code below, my DGV is populated with all data and not the filtered data I need. I also have added a Go button for the purpose of execution instead of using the ValueChanged sub for the DTP.

I`d like to do a query to a SQL server database using the statements like "SELECT...FROM...." an so on. Then I`d like to save results of the query to an array or other variables. I`d like to handle the data of the query results "manually". I don`t want to use the datagridview and tableadapters and so on which are created when I drag a table from the datasources window to the form. is the ADO.NET and datasets the right tool at all? If yes, I believe these are the first steps needed:
- create a connection string
- create a connection and open it
- create a dataadabter
- create a dataset and populate it with the dataadabter
The first problem is the connection string. When I create a connection to a new data source in datasources window, a string is created and saved to some configuration file. Can I use it and how?
