VS 2010 - Connect To FoxPro DB
May 16, 2011
I dusted off VB.net, and now im trying to connect to a local FoxPro DB. Problem is, its not working. Ive been at this for about an hour or so, trying many misc things, but without any luck. [Code]. 'C:aaaCF21000.DBF' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides. Suggestions? That path is 100% valid, I can copy/paste that and open up the Database without error. I also tried other code I found on the web, some of them I cant even get them to run.

i have to start out saying that I have never used VFP before, so this is all new to me. However, I am running into issues that seems to have nothing to do with logic or reason. Let me explain.

I am creating a VB.NET application that will use a FoxPro database as it's main datasource.The problem I've got is that I can browse existing databases and pull out data with no problems at all but as soon as I try and create my own database I get an error message saying "One or more errors occurred during processing of command." (which is helpfully vague).[code]

Consume a regular asmx web service in a dll projectI would like to open DBF-files, including the NTX-indexes in VB.NET which are used in FoxPro / Alaska Xbase. how to open both DBF nd NTX, because only open DBF-files would result in corrupt index (NTX) files.

I wanted to write a small piece of vb code to synchronize a few FoxPro dbf tables to SQL tables that having the same structure or at least a few fields that i selected. I had tried a code which I found on the net that running row by row and column by column to update the SQL tables but this code is too slow. In my dbf table it contains around 3000 records at least.

I'm using VB.NET 2008 with a DataGridView and I'm interfacing to a Visual Foxpro 6 database using the vfpoledb.1 driver. When I change a value in the description field, it changes in the DataGridView but the database never gets updated. Do I need to use code to force the changes to take place?Here's the code I'm using:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
Dim sConString As String = "Provider=vfpoledb.1;Data Source=C:MyDatabase.dbc;Mode=3;"
Dim con As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(sConString)[code].....

So, I have successfully loaded dbf's into my VB project.What I need to know now is how exactly do I utilize the VFP language in addition to SQL?
Say I wanted to replace all fields (REPLACE ALL field1 WITH field2) with another field, how would I send that instruction to the DBF utilizing the VFPOLEDB.dll?

I think what I have here is an environmental issue. When I attempt to fill a dataset from a VFP table I am getting an error message that says "Index Not Found". The reason I feel its environmental is because the process was working perfectly fine last week. The client I am trying to run this program for runs it once per month to integrate one of their FoxPro systems with SQL. It's been in working order since November of last year, but suddenly now I'm getting this error. Some things I have looked at already are updating VFP drivers for both OleDB and ODBC.

I have a foxpro table <b> INVENT.DBF</b> linked in MS ACCESS. When I tried to do a search in the table from vb.net application, it is taking a long time. So I want to index the foxpro table and then use it for search.
Here is the sample code I wrote in vb.net <i>
cn = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=D:database.mdb;Persist Security Info=False")
cn.open()
cmd = New OleDbCommand("Create INDEX itmno_idx ON INVENT(ITEM_NO) ", cn)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()</i>
But I am getting error "Cannot execute data definition statements on linked data sources"
What needs to be done to index a linked foxpro table using VB.NET.

As part of a larger application, I need to IMPORT (not link) a FoxPro 2.6 DBF into a Access DB.I toyed with using a Access MODULE and in the module, using the docmd.TransferDatabase method.I have looked for days at different samples and I cannot seem to find the answer.This application is intended to be distributed with NO ASSURANCE the user will have the FoxPro OLE driver installed. Knowing that the ODBC driver will most likely be installed as part of MDAC, it is pretty safe to use the ODBC driver that is already installed - Visual FoxPro Tables

I am new to VB and trying to use it to update and merge some foxpro free tables. I have a connection and trying to use the update command but getting an exception. Once the code hits the ExecuteNonQuery line it throws the exception {"Command contains unrecognized phrase/keyword."} Do I need to create the command using parameters? Just not sure. Is the connection string correct - I did not get any issue with the cn.Open

it's just for a program registration. i would store all of the registration codes in the access database, then export it to XML, then upload it to my web host. I would then somehow connect it to my Visual Basics login form (Which I have already made). If this can't be done, having them register through the form and having all the allowed codes on the internet (So i can easily edit them)!

VS 2010, VB.NET, WINFORMS. In my app i have a need to import foxpro database tables and exclude the deleted records. The problem is that FOXPRO tables keep deleted items inside the same table. I have tried using DELETED=NO in the connection string but vb throws "Format of the initialization string does not conform to the OLE DB specification."
My function is as follows:
Dim _DBConn1 As String = "provider=vfpoledb.1; Data Source = " & file1 & ";DELETED=NO"
Dim _DBConn2 As String = "provider=vfpoledb.1; Data Source = " & file2 & ";DELETED=NO"
Dim _DBConn3 As String = "provider=vfpoledb.1; Data Source = " & file3 & ";DELETED=NO"
Google results pointed me in the direction of DELETED=NO but its throwing that exception error now that I have added it..

I am building an application that updates a table in Sybase 12.5.3. Here is my situation.
How can I connect to Sybase 12.5.3 from vb.net 2010? In the past, I have used ODA to connect to Sybase and it worked fine.
The problem is that ODA was removed from VB.net in versions 2008 and 2010.
These Visual Basic versions are now using ASE to connect to Sybase but ASE is for Sybase 15.
I tried using ODBC but the drivers that come with VB.net are for Microsoft SQL.
I tried connecting to Sybase using MS SQL drivers. I was able to connect, but the execution did not work that well.
how to connect and how to execute a stored procedure with input and output parameters?

I'm trying to write a small app that will connect to our SQL database and run a small query.
However, my first stumbling block is the connection to SQL.
The SQL is on a server called RCSRV01, and RCSRV01 is the name of the SQL Server instance. The database is called NHD
This is my connection code...

I have connected the database itself without much issue but i want to be able to edit, add and eventually delete from the database using Visual basic interface. This is for an A Level computing course that i teach, i remember a long time ago when i did the course this was fairly simple to do however i cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it at the moment. This is further confused by office 2007 and VB 2010 both of which didnt exsist the first time i did this.Connect 2010 to an access database?
