Create A Fixed-length Unique String From Another Unique Numerical Value That Is Too Long?
Feb 13, 2012I am using VB .Net to access the eBay API and store all completed orders in a database. This database is then fed into a proprietary shipping system, which can not handle an order number larger than 20 characters. eBay returns an order number like so 230407279314-680141236013 which is too long. The order number is always 12 numbers a hyphen and 12 more numbers. What I need to do, is turn this (the result can be alpha numerical) into a shorter, unique order key to store in my database alongside the true orderId (so that this can be referenced by the shipping software instead of the actual order number). The reason for the 20 character limit is the barcode algorithm used. Is there any way to achieve this in VB .Net 2010? This number can be anything unique, so long as it does not exist already (even a good uniqueid function would work, but I would have to query the database to make sure it isn't taken)

VS 2008 SQL - With A Unique Column?
Mar 31, 2009Alright, I have this Access Database. It has 6 Columns: ID | Class Name | Class Code | Class Room | Grade | Teacher
My ID is the Unique Column that I need to reference back too when Updating my other Fields so I get the correct field.How do I do this? Properly.I've been thinking of a method but I doubt it would work.First I would start off selecting all the ID's and then LOOP through all of them, and then rewrite them to to + 1 Each time I make a Delete, so Each Time it will be a consistent 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 .... etc... Then I can reference from that to my Combo Box Selected Index + 1 to get the Correct Row which corresponds with the Selected Item.Will this work? Or will I still need a Unique Fields that I reference back too.

VS 2008 Add Datarow With Unique Identifier?
Oct 13, 2010I have a table in an SQL database bound to a datagridview and am having an issue with understanding what happens when I add a new data row.
My datatable is built in code with the first column created using this sql command...
vb
cmdString = String.Format("CREATE TABLE {0} ({1} INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, ", tableName, columnNames(0))
after that there a a number of other columns added to the command to build the table. After the table is created, I fill the datatable and bind the datagridview using this code....
vb
Dim cmdString As String = String.Format("SELECT * FROM {0}", DB_DATALOG_TABLE_NAME)
DataLogAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(cmdString, dBConnection)
DataLogTable = New DataTable
[Code].....
This is where my understanding is falling. Because I have created the datatable's first column with the NOT NULL key word, an exception throws when I try to update the data adapter because the first column of the data row is empty By creating the table with the first column the IDENTITY key word, doesn't that imply that the database will generate the value for that column? If so, when I add a new datarow, how does the identity column get filled?
VS 2008 Generating Unique IDs In A Table?
Dec 6, 2009creating unique IDs for each row in a table, to avoid duplicates when inserting the data to a server. The table looks like this:
+--------------+----------+------+-------------+
| brikkenummer | tid | post | anvendt_tid |
+--------------+----------+------+-------------+
| 3086360 | 09:43:02 | 98 | 09:43:02 |
[code]....
"Brikkenummer" is the number of a device that each person carries with him/her, and "tid" is the time the runner has passed a specific post. The post he/her has passed is described in the column "post".Out of these three columns, is it possible to generate some kind of unique ID? The ID that is generated have to be the same if a row is displayed twice or more, to avoid duplicate entries.

VS 2008 - Creating Unique File Names?
Dec 22, 2009I am creating files and then allowing the User to browse through the files via a ComboBox. I decided to name each file the current date. In order to create multiple reports each time the application is ran, each report needs a unique name.
The idea is that if they run a report once a day they'll have a unique report each day. But, then I realized that it is feasible that User could run a report more than once a day. So, I decided to create an integer and increment it each time the report has been ran. Then append the file name with that integer. So, report one of that day would show something like this:
12-22-2009_1 and so on.And this works just fine. But, if the user decides to close the app and then run the report later that day, the variable has been reset and no longer works as needed.I'm using a StreamWriter to create the file.
