So I'm developing a program were, given some data by the user, the prorgam inserts some records into a database. To insert individual records in different tables I use either the standard INSERT method provided by the Table Data Adapter or a custom Insert Method when I want to insert something slightly differently.Sometimes the user would press a button and an operation where different records in different related tables are inserted. Since each Insert is handled individually for by the DataAdapters of each table, how can I manage to bring the whole thing to an atomic transaction way? I mean, let's say for example the User inserts a new Document in the system, the document has one or many Editions. How could i do something like: if the document was not created properly, then do not insert the editions.
I'd like to write a small app to get the time from an "atomic" clock -- I believe the UTC time and then compare this against the system clock.
So far I've been able to get the system time details with the code below but just cannot figure out where to start on getting the atomic clock(s) time.
I did Google this for examples and have not found anything useful, I did find a list of atomic time servers @ the following URL and realise I have to connect to NIST Internet Time Service clock
Dim localDirect As Date = Date.Now Dim utcDirect As Date = Date.UtcNow Dim localFromUtc As Date = utcDirect.ToLocalTime()
I would like to know if there is any opportunity in VB.Net to use atomic operations. Or Maybe there is an opportunity to check if a file is allready in use or opened.The reason why I ask is because I got a little application that I would like to log its actions. As the applications uses threads the method for writing the log file sometimes is trying to open the log-file more than once which leads to an exception.
I have a taskfactory application that generates new tasks where a task is running a project exe file that involves a lot of classes. Part of the task process involves declaring a dataset and adding a single datatable to the dataset which is then populated with content from results of a sql query. This datatable is then used in the next class and involves iterating through the table and deleting the rows it has already used. When initiating a new task I assume that it will declare its own datatable and dataset but not sure if this will work.
I have 4 ComboBoxen and 1 DatagridView into one Form. I make a code, for binding with 5 tables, each is own dataSet and dataAdaptor Is it possible to use one DataSet and one DataAdaptor for 5 Tables, so my code become shorter.
I think the solution is a SQL SELECT query, but i dont no for sure.If it is a SELECT query, ore something else, cane anybody help with make the code i need.
I have an existing system that uses an ODBC connection to connect datasets to a SQL Server database. I want to conevrt these to use an OLEdb connection.
Im just starting to develop an application using a SQL Database as the main datasource. Now im wondering is it better to use the in-built dataset adapters or write the querys yourself?
If its better to use the pre-generated scripts by using the Datasource UI, How can i use these datasets on a JOIN query?
Example Join SELECT column_name(s) FROM table_name1 JOIN table_name2 ON table_name1.column_name=table_name2.column_name
Im currently making a program. It loads data from database fields into an combo box. Everything works so far, It just seems to be a mess. Do i need to have all the datasets and data adapters? or can i get away with just using 1 of each. It seems like im doing it wrong, and although it works it seems like a difficult and messy way of doing it.
Also i would like to assign the firshermenID to a variable depending on the fisherman name that is selected in the combo box. When button is pressed: id = fishermanID of the current fisherman (cmbFisherman.text)
I just read this post url...Post #2 by jmc states indicates the use of Entity Framework instead of typed datasets.when jmc says something I usually pay attention. I have a large app that I've been converting from VB6 to .Net and I've used mainly typed datasets.It's a single user app that uses an Access database. I'm have no problems retrieving the data from a table or multiple tables and I'm very happy with its preformance.Is it worth scapping what I've done and learn how to use Entity Framework? I should add that I'm near the end of my programming career not the beginning.
In a typical session with the program I'm writing, the user needs to be able to access the data in 1 to 500 (maybe) tables (but always only one table at a time). Up to now I've been creating these single table datasets dynamically, as and when required.I've now come across the distinction between typed and untyped datasets (where typed seems to be the recommended option). It seems, though, that typed datasets are created at design time only and not dynamically. Is this correct? Are all of my dynamically created datasets therefore untyped?
I have installed SQL Server 2005 Express and VB 2008 Express.
For testing, I created a database with 1 table with 4 columns. I used SQL Server to add 2 records. I then created a new project with 2 forms. On one form, I put a DataGridView control. On the other, I used bound text boxes. Both had a ToolStrip. I made changes to the data through the forms. Both forms seemed to work properly, except when I looked at the data again using SQL Server, the data had not changed. Opening the forms again, the data had reverted to the original data.
I am using the code created by controls, so it should work. When I use the Database Explorer in VB, it shows the table and the data and I can make changes to that data. So why is my code not committing the transactions?[code]...
I am trying to use SqlTransaction object in my vb code for an application to insert vendor info.The code runs till inserting a transaction and then gives following exception:
"Execute requires the command to have a transaction object when the connection assigned to the command is in a pending local transaction. The Transaction property of the command has not been initialized."
I wanted to know what (if any) differences there are to using the SQL Transaction within the application versus written into the stored procedure using TSQL statement. We would need to restructure the stored procs and vb code to get this to work and I'm not sure it would be worth the effort at this time.
Public Sub RetrieveTData(ByVal cID As String, ByVal cnn As SqlConnection) As Boolean Dim sqlTran As SqlTransaction cnn.Open() sqlTran = cnn.BeginTransaction
[code].....
We aren't certain whether the timeout is occurring in DataAlreadyTransferred() or usp_BigNasty_CopyDataFromDB1toDB2 due to how the try/catch is written. We can restructure this code, but will take a week or so to get it to production (no errors occur on test/dev today)
DB1 - permanent storage, used by other applications as well DB2 - working set, used only by Web App
DataAlreadyTransferred(cID) first checks to see if DB2 has any copies of the records, if DB2 does and those records are clean it deletes them (data could have changed in DB1 and we want the most up-to-date version). If DB2's data is dirty it is left alone and no data is deleted.
usp_BigNasty_CopyDataFromDB1toDB2 copies rows from approximately 20-30 different tables and copies over the perm copies from DB1 into DB2, essentially creating a working set from which the Web App can access
We are aware this is inefficient and are examining ways to improve it, just haven't had time yet... I believe by having the transactions in the app code it's locking many more tables than is really needed. If we move them to the stored procs, less tables will be locked at one time thus improving our chances of removing deadlock conditions/timeout issues we're seeing today. Just not sure on this..
I am looking at re-writing an application (currently in C) which uses HIS 2004 (Could use 2009 if required) to access mainframe transactions. Is there a decent framework which I could use to connect and call mainframe transactions and relay any infromation into the existing system? ( I am developing in a .Net 4 environment) to remove the c coded requirement?
I am using the SQL Server and DB2 in my application. The DB2 transactions do not work with the DBProviderFactory Class but SQL Server work. I have to use to separate DB2 API's to make the transactions work but its very messy and involves a lot of code change.I extend DBProviderFactory class and add the DB2 transactions to it?
Can someone here give me an idea how should I make a transaction form or should we say a payment form.I already have a database with lists of students in it.Also a database with an event in it. Along with a fee on which every student should pay.
The problem is I want to make a form on which if this entry(student)were to make a payment his/her name will be marked as paid in the student database.More like a payroll system.Sorry I am kinda noob when it comes to equations or money matters in Vb.net All I know is add edit delete and search. Can somebody point me to a tutorial or a good idea where to begin?
I am using vb.net and ms access for developing windows applications. I want to know how to take the backup of database for after each and every transactions.
This is my code. I have a problem in displaying the total. Once checkbox is checked it adds the computation to the total. and when it is unchecked, even if the textbox= 0 still, the value of the total is retained.
When you are posting code please use code tags like this.
I have a vb.net web app and I am passing a SQL connection and a transaction to a method which writes a single record to the database.
I would like to start and commit a transaction for each record that is written but using the same sql connection until the loop is done.
One method I saw was utilizing a using statement but it didn't work for me.it runs the first time and gives an error on the second that the transaction has already been commited
Using sqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ConnectionString").ConnectionString)
I basically have a few thousand transactions 7,000 - 10,000 transactions to process over a short time. The flow goes like this.
---> ----> ---> ---> receive (1000) as each transaction takes approx 2 seconds so if i were to process synchronously it would take all night......
Now first i would like to ask if i am going about this the right way ? the service i am communicating with is not .net but is built to handle large amounts of requests. I have obtained the following code that suggests it will do what i am after
dim strxmlreq as string = '(this is where i input my xml string) Dim request As HttpWebRequest
' Create the request
[CODE]...
The problem i have is if the above will work for me where exactly do i catch the returned xml string ? I assumed "result" would be the xml output string.
How do I download transactions info from Paypal using VB.NET
I want to create an app which when i press a button. It downloads each new Paypal transaction to a textfile. I would like information like purchase item name, item description. And price to be added to textfile.
[code]...Download Transactions Info From Paypal Using VB?
How do I download transactions info from Paypal using VB.NET I want to create an app which when i press a button. It downloads each new Paypal transaction to a textfile. I would like information like purchase item name, item description. And price to be added to textfile. VB.Net in relation to a local computer is something I can work with. Put with intergrating VB.NET with Paypal is alittle out of my depth.
whether is it feasible to commit one huge transaction per time or do it multiple times.Lets say around 1000 - 3000 of mixed updating or inserting rows for per transaction or having a loop to commit every transaction as it loops.Which one is preferred ? will it have any impact ?
I would like to use the transactions commit/rollback against a sql server rdbms within a VB 2010 module. I understand how these can be executed within a Transact-SQL session, but cannot seem to be able to code them correctly within VB as these are more like DDL statements.

I am using Oracle 11g client, with ODP.NET. I am trying to add conditional Transaction handling.
Dim ds As New DataSet() Dim txn As OracleTransaction Dim _beginTransaction as Bolean = true Using conn As New OracleConnection(ConnString)
[Code]...
How do I fix txn being nothing / null? The error is: Variable 'txn' is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime. Edit: to RichardOD for pointing out that you can not explicitly declare that a transaction cannot be opend up on stored procedures via ODP.NET. I have verified that this is an issue. BUT We still haven't figured out why the error is occuring. I understand that txn is initially given a value w/in an if statement, but being defined outside of the try/catch block should make that irrelevant.... right? Or is that bad coding?
I am trying to implement transactions across multiple TableAdapters in VB.NET (using Visual Studio 2010) by extending the partial class as described in the following examples:
I have currently processed a credit card using Authorize.net with Card Present settings. The great thing is that the card is being transacted but when i use the same card with different expiry date or a different cvs number the card is still being transacted. This shouldnt happen. Here is the code that im using in VB.NET.[code]
