I am displaying Access database records on my form and need to be able to printpreview only the first 3 records of the database and have no idea how to code this at all. Also the printpreview is has to be on a separate form than the displayed records.

I am new at VB and am working on a simple project. I am reading records in from an access db and when the user clicks on the 'create label' button, I need the record displayed to be added to the labels.txt file. When they click on the 'save & close' button, I want the file to be saved (with no dialogue box) and the app to be closed. I am struggling with getting the records into the text file and saving it.

View 3 RepliesI have records in my datagridview (from database(ms sql server 2008 r2)). What i want to do is to insert the records selected by my datagridview checkboxcolumn and IF POSSIBLE automatically delete a record if the records to be inserted are equal to the records inside the database. (Hoping you got what I want to say.) For example. I have an A,B,C(child) that is under XXX(parent) in my database and I'll be inserting the A,B(child) again but it will be under YYY(parent). The old record in XXX will be deleted except C. I just want a possible DELETE STATEMENT These are what I've done so Far :

I need to display records from a database in Access in Visual Studio 2010. The project Im looking to create needs to display all of the records from the database and allow the user to navigate throughout the set of records.
I need controls and codes to:
MoveNext
MovePrevious
FirstRecord
LastRecord
Exit
I've found a sql string like: "SELECT Count(*) FROM table"My question is: how can I use this string and get the result into a variable in VB2010? I used to program with VB6 for years, but now things are very different.
View 1 RepliesI'm working on a simple data logging program, and I have little to no database experience. I wrote a little VB forms app to log the data to ms access and then graph the data, but I'm having trouble with adding records to the database. First, I created a simple one table database in access. Then, I added the database to the project as a data source, and gave it a data set using the wizard. Right now my code looks like this:

There are no problems during build or run time, but I do not see changes to database after the program runs.
I am not able to add records in an Access 2007 database using VB 2010 Express Edition. I have read other posts and followed them but still I am not sucessful. I have the connection to the access database as MS Access Database, therefore it has the OLEDB connection (not the Jet 4.0). I am using the project instance in binding the text boxes to the fieldnames in the Access database. Did I miss something? I am also using Windows Vista Ultimate.

When I print the output to a PDF file using PDFCreator, it stacks all of the letters onto each other rather than creating new lines at the places I've specified. I've also tried using vbNewLine instead of vbCrLf, but I haven't had any luck. I searched the web for this but couldn't find anything about it.
My instructor told us how to print documents and how to use databases. What the instructor did not mention is how to print or print a preview of records within a DatabaseDataSet. The book "Programming in Visual Basic 2010" does not explain how to print or do a print preview of Database Source records from within a form. The only thing I was told was to test the print document first before you try to do a print preview. Within a form I used a DataGridView to add, delete, and update the database. So now all I need to do is figure out how to print the updated records from the DataGridView and how to print a preview of the records within the DataGridView. So I hope my question is clear enough to give me assistance on how I can perform these two actions. Thanks this would be a great help, and since the class is online we can get assistance from any sources that we have.
View 5 RepliesI am wanting to print a access database file by going up to my menu strip and clicking print. I don't want to preview the file or anything, I just want the code to simply pop up the default print dialog box and be able to hit print. Everything I have looked at seems to be very complex, is there not a easy way to just print this database file? Again I don't want to edit the output file at all with fonts, borders, etc.

View 2 RepliesI am new to vbExpress. I am working in vb express with MsAccess as database. I have a form with ListView and some comboboxes,textboxes,buttons etc. Now I am at the stage of forming different reports from database and then printing them. Like I want to make a RECEIPT with CompanyName as header, date, time, Serial Number, ItemDescription, Quantity,Price, Amount,Mode of payment. Then I want to generate sales reports like daily sale, weekly sale, monthly sale. The things like that. Definitely I will use SQL statements to bring data from the tables according to the requirements of reports. My question is how I can make and display different reports from the databases and to print them in proper format.

View 1 RepliesWhy did MS remove the easy way to print in VB2010. As a programmer, developing programs that used to print directly to the printer in VB 6, I find the new "funtionality" of printing with VB 2010 is a PITA.

View 11 RepliesI have a database with 3 tables: Student, Unavailability and Duty.The fields for Student are entered in a form I have. One of the fields in Unavailability is filled by a form, the other fields are an autonumber and a foreign key to the Student table.ow I want records in the Duty table to be created and automatically filled in depending on what the values of the fields are in the Student table.For example, If the Boarder field in the Student table is 'yes' then I want the Duty Number field in the Duty table to be '1', '3' and '4'. If it is 'no' then I want the value to be '2' and '5'. I recognize it will have to create several different records to incorporate the different duty numbers for each StudentID. Obviously this will require an if statement, however this is my first time implementing a database with my limited experience with programming and Visual Basic, so I don't know how to refer to the specific fields in a table and set the value of other fields depending on the data in other fields.

i am trying to print a pdf file.. i have acrobat reader in my pc and i have managed to open the pdf file inside the form i created in VB. When i issue the print command, the print dialog box of acrobat appears.If i input 1-4 in page range of dialog box, it doesn't print pages 1-4. I thnk the information i input at the print dialog box is not forwarded to the printer.
I am doing this because im making a project which can print documents as well as accepting payment thru the coin slot.
I've got problems while printing a document.I've got a program that have a small form with options for printing two diferent pages.Here's the There is a Button for printing named Imprimir and two checkboxes for selecting what king of display I want to send to printer.At first time, there are no problems, the printer prints what I want, the form closes and it seems all is allright. The problem is when I try to print again, even the same layout, I call the print form again and I get the error in the picture...Why the same routine executes without problem at first instance and gives this error at second instant?

Attached is an excel file which I want you to have a look at. Usually the staff fills in this form manually in 2 copies everyday and this is becoming very tedious. So what I was thinking is to design a form with labels (which represent the columns on the excel sheet) and text boxes. Let's say for each 5 records they capture, they can take out a printout on A3 paper like the same format in the excel sheet. I know we can do that directly on the excel sheet but the thing is all the data captured will be used in another application I have developed.
