View 3 RepliesI am using Visual Basic Express 2008 64bit on a Windows 7 64 bit computer. It is running Microsoft Office 2010 University Edition, which only comes in 32 bit so far as I know.

Beforehand, I had recieved a "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine." error, and after applying the above fix worked fine. However, now that I am trying to publish my program, I am returned with the same error, no matter what target CPU I select. The program works fine on 32bit machines, however on my 64bit laptop it is unable to connect to the database. I have tried compatibility mode, downloaded many different add-ons from the Microsoft download page, but to no prevail. My understanding is that it is not actually compiling the published version to x86, simply running it as such when I build it in Visual Basic, and because there is no apparent way to set target CPU for compiling,
connect to 2 separate databases that control a system of logging in/out and the other a database of items. Think of it like logging in to ebay and searching for items. The only problem is that the x64 computers that will be used to run the final solution dont allow for MS Access databases or SQL databases to work for whatever reason.What other options do we have in order to have an effective system? A series of generated text files with the input registration details is so far the

View 16 RepliesMicrosoft Access 2007 A Students.mdb database file Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition. I was informed that one can connect to Access files with ease from the Express Edition and most of the tutorials on the internet also show this however I am encountering a problem.
I open Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition Start a new project, with a form, and then click on the Data window, and add new data sources from the Data menu.
I click on database. The problem starts with the data connection. I click New Connection Change the Data Source from Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 to Microsoft Access Database File and instead of then leading back to the other window (as happens on the tutorials for me to browse for the mdb file). Another window pops up asking me to Add a Connection.
It has the data source listed as Access and asks for a Connection String under the misc section. I type in
CODE:
When I click on Ok I get this error: Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0.
The Test connection button works and says connection success whether the Connection String field is empty or not but when I click OK it still gives me the same error. So I can't leave it blank either
So basically I can't connect to the Access database since I can't change the connection type and it won't just let me browse and add the file anyway.

I'm using an MS Access database which has password (database password, not a workgroup or smth). I'm using 13 characters - with no special signs- only letters. When I try to open the DB from access it works fine, but when I try to run my Windows Form application from Visual Studio Connection String, I get a message that "Not a valid password".

First timer here, I love the site!
Running:
- VS 2008
- Sharepoint 3.0
- Access 2007
- Windows Vista (The machine I'm developing it from)
History: (Do excuse me if I don't reference different methods I've taken so far correctly, I'm still learning!) I am building some search software for a law firm that I work for in Australia. It's all coming along really well, but I seem to have hit a snag getting data out of sharepoint lists and into my project!
I first attempted to add a web reference to sharepoint and after a while was able to pull in all of the data from the lists, fantastic!(OR NOT!). The issue then was when I attempted to load it up into an array using XMLNodes, whilst it loaded up fine and I could see all the data, if there was a null value in one of the columns, it wouldn't pull that null value across, therefore, I couldn't really use the data...

what do connection strings depend on? like is there different strings on the basis of access version you use or on the .net framework used.. or is there some other criteria?i made a project with vb 2010, .net framework 4.0, access 2007 (.accdb), using icrosoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 as Provideri need to make it run on a system with no vb, .net framework 4.0, access 2003 (.mdb)

View 10 RepliesI am making a program that will take your initial balance of your checking account and then you can enter your checks, deposits and withdrawls into a database. Then The option will be given to return a report of deposits, withdrawls, etc. Well, I am having the problem with creating a database I can open when the program runs, first time to get the initial balance, and after to tell current balance. Then, I need to just keep on adding the new checks, deposits, withdrawls to the database everytime the person uses it. So, say I used it and put in 5 checks and then a week later I use it and put another 5 in. I want to be able to give a report of all the checks that have been inputed (this example is 10) back out to the user. So, essentially my question is, I guess, how would I create a database in VB 2008 that I can keep adding to it everytime it gets used?
View 1 RepliesI'm relativity new to VB programing and was working on implementing a database into my current project. However last night I was trying to add one and the program had encountered some error while I was trying to add a database which I accidentally closed without reading, at which point i promptly restarted the program to find this error whenever I try to open/edit the database.This leads me to believe that the error had stated that it was disabling something on me, and perhaps some way to re-enable it. I cant seem to recreate the error on my other system so i have no idea what to do.

I am getting an error at the "Do While DMReader02.Read = True" line: "Invalid attempt to call Read when reader is closed." Why would the reader be closed at this point if I am using different DataReaders in the two loops?

I am often asked to create a very simple database front-end for friends or family, and the structure of the database (and application) is usually very similar.Right now I am always creating a class that handles all database interactions with some shared functions. For example, there's a function to run a general query and return a table, a function to save/load various items (depending on the application of course). The point is: the code is nearly always the same except for some slight variations.
View 5 RepliesNot sure if I'm posting this in the right area, but here goes anyway. I've been working with sql databases for practice, but can't seem to get around one thing; after I add it as a data source, I can't go back and add tables.
I start off by going through the project, then add item, choose the service-based database, and go from there. I add the tables, then go in and add it as a data source.
After I've added it as a data source, I can go back into the .mdf form and add lines and edit properties, but it wont update in the data sources. So, I can't add it to the form.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to get going with using MS-Access databases in vb.net. In my case, I have a list of MS-Access database paths as strings that I want to talk to. I don't want to add the databases permanently to my project, since there are many of them (hundreds, actually). To start off, I have something like this:
Public Sub main()
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection
conn.ConnectionString = _
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _

If I run this, it fails at " Dim rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader", with the error:
"Record(s) cannot be read; no read permission on 'MSysObjects'."
however, I can open the same database using the MS-Access client and run the same query without a problem.

Is there some way of connecting VB to SQL server?

View 1 RepliesI've been using MS Access for the database in many of my programs (they're always local databases, copied to the user's computer) and as is no surprise to anyone here, it's a horrible choice but it's what I knew and so I've just defaulted to it.What is the best one to use? How do I go about buying/getting it? Does it allow royalty-free copies? Can I import my existing Access databases into this? How do I deploy it?
