View 2 RepliesI am using VB 2008 express and SQL Server 2008 express on a test basis and I used to connect VB express to a SQL database (created in SQL Server 2008 Express management studio) file and it work perfectly until my hard drive packed up and I had to get a new one, so I had to reinstall both of these again and copied my old databases from a backup I had. Now when I try to connect to the database file it cannot connect. Network related error or the instance name is incorrect. When I look at the advanced options in the connect dialog it shows my instance as .SQLExpress and my correct instance name is .SQL2008Express. I clicked OK on the connect dialog and manually changed my connection string to the correct instance and that worked but whenever I run the application in debug mode it give me the same error as above.

View 15 RepliesWe have a VB.Net application which works fine in our tests in different Windows XP SP3 machines. However there is one machine in which is displaying this error:
Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts
Using the mysql command, we can successfully connect to the database. We already checked for any other application or firewall that could be blocking the connection but it seems fine. We also reinstalled the system (no errors during the installation) but the MySQL error message doesn't change.
The system settings are exactly the same as in the other computers. We are using "localhost" as server in the connection string. The "hosts" file has its default values (nothing strange in there).

I'm experimenting with sockets at the moment, but having trouble so i thought i would come and ask here
What i'm up to:
VB
IP = Net.IPAddress.Parse(getinfo("settings.inf", i & "IP"))
socket = New Net.Sockets.Socket(Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetwork, Net.Sockets.SocketType.Stream, Net.Sockets.ProtocolType.IP)
[Code].....
However the problem with this it that i pinged 1.1.1.1 and it still connects, ALSO i would like to be able to check a hostname not just an IP to make things more convenient, please help me to find a way to properly check a connection with IP or hostname.
Note: The getinfo function is defined by me
In Vb.NET I allways use mdb files to my applications.Now, in this one, I need use the Sql Compact Edition.The code isn't the same to connect to the DB?
I'm using this:
DIM connString As String = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=|DataDirectory|SITAC.sdf;Password=abc;Persist Security Info=True"

I am trying to connect to my remote MySql Database within Visual Studio using the compact framework.
I can successfully add a data source and preview the data within the IDE so assume that the connection is ok regarding Connection strings and remote access.
However, when I attempt to access the data using any run time control I get the following error when the table is loaded using the .fill method.
MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException was unhandled
ErrorCode=-2147467259

View 4 RepliesIn our program we track the moves in arrays by columns 0 means empty, 1 means black, 2 means red so it would look like this for example
column1(0) = "1"
column1(1) = "2"
column1(2) = "2"
column1(3) = "1"
column1(4) = "0"
column1(5) = "0"
for column 1, and we have seperate arrays for each column (7 in all) but they all have the same values 0,1, or 2 so how can we make it check the arrays and their values and detect a winner?
