I want to select records from a access table using sql in vb.net 2010 based on what a user types....
My statement is: comm = New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM Recipes WHERE RecipeName= '" & TB1.Text & "')", con)
this only selects records where the full word is the only word in the record set.
I want to type say "Vodka" in the search box and then it must return all the records where "Vodka" is ANY part of the record name: ie: "vodka" or "Vodka" (any case letter) or "Blue Vodka" etc.
Basically what I'm trying to do is to get the program to select a text string that has 2 random numbers in it from a RichTextBox. The string it would find would be similar to this:"items_win.php?item_id=24&item_number=590576"But the bolded section changes every time the page is refreshed, so how can i find the string with the numbers every time no matter what they are?
Dim lastRow As Integer = DGV.RowCount MsgBox(lastRow) DGV.Rows(lastRow).Selected = True
The messagebox returns the correct number, but when it comes to select that row it says:Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index
But if I assign it a row, example: DGV.Rows(5).Selected = True
Is there a way to make a column unselectable? I can make the column read-only but it would be easier if it was unselectable so the user won't be confused trying to enter data into a read only cell. So if I clicked on a cell in that column or moved into that cell in that column it would jump to the next column, or not focus on the cell at all.
Using Excel 2007 and VB 2010...I'm trying to have my program select a specific worksheet from a workbook yet my program keeps opening whatever sheet was active at the time of the file being saved last. Here is my code for that
I have an application written in VB.net for batch print jobs. As part of the application, the user selects two printer trays to use to print the batch to (one plain paper the other coloured for coversheets and batch seperators) I had this working until we upgraded our systems from Windows XP with Office 2000 to Windows 7 and Office 2010. Now the selected trays are not being recognised and an error is thrown.
I've looked at similar posts on here and other forums but they seam to concentrate on using some word default trays (wdPrinterDefaultBin etc) however I need to be able to let the user pick whatever tray they wish to use. I don't want to have to go through every printer in the building and map the trays to the word values either as I don't want to rewrite the app everytime we've a new printer.
Here is the code:
sub PopulatePrinterTray (byref Printer as String) 'gets printer trays for selected printer and then populates some comboboxes Dim pkSource As Printing.PaperSource Dim printDoc As New Printing.PrintDocument
I'm am trying to determine the total number of fields under a particular heading given that the other Heading's total number of fields are > or < than the heading in question. The query, shown first in the attached code, works well if there is one column in one database table, however it does not work well when there are a number of columns with a different number of fields respectively. The CategoriesID encompasses the entire tables contents.I devised a function to determine the total number of fields within a particular column and then attempted to incorporate this, without success, into the second query, shown in the code.
Private Sub GetRandomHeadingFields() Dim varNumberHigh As Integer varNumberHigh = TotalNumberofHeadingFields()
I'm trying to code a program but this error repeatedly shows up and I can't for the life of me figure it out EValue of type 'String' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.TextBox'. It appears in relation to this code
I'm developing a TextBox Component that is suited for handling passwords. I was using A string Builder to hold the password But now I discovered the Secure String! It is Perfect for what I want to do except one Problem! How do you get it back to a normal string! I've heard you can convert it to a BSTR and then use windows API to read the memory location and convert that to a string.
I have an app that calls a DLL, and passes a string to it (by reference). The DLL then fills the string and passes it back to the app. Before calling the DLL, the string must be sized correctly to fit the data the DLL is going to pass it. In the past (using VB.NET 2003) I just initialized the string with the correct number of spaces. This always seemed silly to me and I'm wondering if, in VB.NET 2010, there is a way to do this using a number to define the size?
detecting the string between 2 characters, EG " is the starting character anything the user types is the string" is the ending character like this:
" <user text> "

I am trying to get back a single from from a EF database model using the below line of code..
Dim _classRoom As classrm = db.classrms.Select(Function(b) b.Course_ID = _CurrCourse.course_ref)
Where classrm is the name of the entity and db is declared as a new entity. What I am trying to do is select a row from the entity based on matching Course_ID which in this model is a string. So that I can later use the variable _classRoom to get other items out of the same row.. However I am getting the following error:
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery`1[System.Boolean]' to type 'Trial_Online.classrm'.
I have to preform similar tasks with several different Entities but if I get pointed in the right direction I can manage from there...

Can anyone reccommend a good database that I can use on a local machine to storenames/addresses etc. and that integrates easily into .Net 2.0.I have used MySQL a fair bit, so something along that route would be great but without the need to install additional software on the computer or connect externally to a server
I wrote some software that use the AVICAP32.dll to do a spot of video capture.All was going well till they went and bought a laptop with a built in webcam.Now my software picks one a random and uses that for the video (somewhat annoying to say the least) Can anyone tell me how to pick a camera to use,I suspect it is related to DVM_DIALOG but my experiments have not been too successful.
I Have a problem with selecting a row in a datagridview. I want the user to press on the data rowheader of the data gridview of a particular row and then that rows first item are put in a string. But the problem is that if i Select an item another item is still selected. So If I press the mouse button on the row header the previous item is still selected and then the wrong data is in the string. Here is the code under the event of the datagridview mouse click:
Private Sub dataGridView1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As MouseEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.MouseDown Dim hit As DataGridView.HitTestInfo = DataGridView1.HitTest(e.X, e.Y) Dim index As Integer

I have a form that needs to add user selected items to a listbox. But these selections are done outside the form itself. So in windows explorer, the form pops up and then the user keeps clicking on files and I want these file names to be added to the listbox. How can I do this? in my case, as soon as I click outside, obviously the form loses focus. How can I "listen" to mous clicks outside?
I have a series of ovals named "lamp1" through to "lamp26" and wish to change a particular lamp's backcolor.I have done this for labels (Controls("Label" & intButton).BackColor = Color.Black) but Controls does not work for Ovals. I assumed this was because Ovals are part of the PowerPack set but I cannot get any further.
I've data of 40 temperature sensors in a data table. I want to extract particular column from SQL from this data table, usually for this to occur One can Say write "Select value FROM table" where value is the parameter, this is ok, but it returns a value in specific row(s) of specific column whereas i want opposite. I want to my query to select particular column as argumument. I have 40 Columns.
Like: SELECT S1 FROM Table, SELECT S2 FROM Table .... but this is too hectic to write it for 40-50 sensors. Is there any way that i can replace S1-S2 in above statement as argument and provide it on runtime to select particular column?
My problem is i have two comboboxes, cmbFamily and cmbModel, I have values in cmbFamily: A320, A330 etc And i have a database that has all the available models for these aircraft types, i have got some help on a query so i can fill up cmbModel with all the models of aircraft available, but i only want to display the models related to the family that is selected in the cmbFamily combobox.
The query i have so far is
Query = New OleDb.OleDbCommand("Select Model From Availability", AccessConn)
'AccessConn is my database connection string I would like to have something that views the text in cmbFamily and then looks for all related model entries in the dataset.
