How do I strip out the data source from the connection string so that I only have the directory path and file name.
My connection string is thus:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:Documents and SettingsMartinMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsRestelRestel IIRestel IIRestel.mdb
I developed a winform application and I want to send the .exe file to someone else. That means that my datasource for my connection string is not the same any more
Dim da As OleDbDataAdapter
Dim dt As New DataSet
Dim objConnection As OleDbConnection = New OleDb.OleDbConnection

i have a code which has the connection string as driver. dim s as string = "Driver={SQL Server}; Server=xxxSQLEXPRESS; Database=dbRegister; Trusted_Connection=yes" i need to change that to - "data source=1.2.3.4;user id=xx;password=xxxxx;initial catalog=xxxxx;Connect Timeout=30" when i just change the text it gives this error - "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified" how do i declare the datasource?

View 13 RepliesI am looking to make a data connection with a network server(sql server 2005). When I run the data source configuration wizard, it allows me only to pick a local database file. I want to use a connection string like this "Data Source=SQLSERVER;Initial Catalog=mydb;User Id=username;Password=password;" I know I can do that programmatically. But I would like to know whether I can do that using the data source wizard so that I will be able to use Bindingsources and tableadapters.

But, how do I change programatically the password, ip or user to connect with the MySql server? Because it can change at any time, so I can let the user change these values.
I have created a data source connection to an access db by using the wizard in vs2008. I have then used this as a data source for crystal reports. My user would like to put the database on a network and reference it there. Is there a way to set a new path for this data source during runtime?

I have been trying for days now how to create a process to the user to easily create a connection to any installed data types they have installed. I have found an example right inside vb2008. I never use this because I code my own connections, but this would be real nice if I could include it or duplicate it.
View 1 RepliesMy program so far reads a certain webpage's source code and places it in a textbox. This much has already been accomplished.
Now I need to pick certain strings out of the rather large amount of text data and have the lines stored in variables, but the trick of it is, the exact string is unknown. The exact function should be, that the code finds certain tags from the source code, say <td> and </td> and takes the string data in between those tags, what ever it may be.

i have inherited some code form another developer who is using entityClient for a connection string. the web config entry looks like:
<add name="my_TESTEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/TEST.csdl|res://*/TEST.ssdl|res://*/TEST.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string="Data Source=myServer;Initial Catalog=TEST2;User ID=user_gg;Password=Aasdfasfasf;MultipleActiveResultSets=True"" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient"/>
what are the metadata files? i found them in the debug folder of the code i was given, do i need to point to them? do i need to move them somewhere else?

I refreshed my data sources to include additional items from the SQL Server databases and it appears that my entire data source from my VB.NET project disappeared.I am using Entity Framework. I may have clicked on something wrong, not quite sure. Unfortunately I can't recreate the Data Source without creating a new Entity and Data Model.I can delete the entry in the App.Config file and recreated it, however things aren't quite right.Is there a way that I can recreate my Data Source from the entry that is in my App.Config file...since that appears to have remained intact.BTW, I can go to my Data Model and successfully refresh from there, however my project isn't connecting to the database so I have quite a number of errors until I can get reconnected.

I've always used this approach while implementing data layer DLL for web application:
1) put datasets into the dll project
2) use a helper class with a method like this:
public shared sub settCnnStr(strconnhere as string)
My.Settings.Item("connectionString") = strconnhere
end sub
3) when I need to use the dll I call a method like this (usually into global.asax):
xxxxxxx.helper.setCnnStr("yyyyyyyyyyyyyy")
This method always worked for me nicely but I'd like to know if this method could have serious drawback or if there's a better solution.

I have a program on my machine that uses a local SQL Express 2005 database to store information in when the program is running. I want to use some data within said database in my program but for the life of me I cannot seem to get started by adding it as a new data source using the add data source wizard... If I type in the database name it throws an error that it cannot find the database, although I can quite clearly see it using the SQL Express 2005 SQL Server Management Tool.
View 7 RepliesThe code below works well to load an Excel file into a DataGridView. The menu 'Show Data Source' reveals there is no data source available. Is there a way to set up a data source much in the same way as is possible with a .mdb which I would normally add with the menu 'Add New Data'? Several ways to confugure the DataGridView are not options without a known data source.
