View 9 RepliesI am writing a program where the user has to log in before the program loads. Right now I have all the users and passwords hard coded into the program. Recently I have written a Oracle function that the username and password is sent to the DB and a yes or no is sent back after comparing the passwords. I am getting the correct response back and it will display in a label (I tried it to make sure the response is correct). The problem I am having is that the program after receiving the response doesn't recognize the response so I always get an incorrect password error.
Below is my code:
empName = tbxUser.Text
passWord = tbxPassword.Text
dbConn.ConnectionString =
"Data Source=!!!!; User Id=!!!!; Password=!!!!"

Code:
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
If count.Elapsed.Seconds = 1 Then
Run()
End If
End Sub
