Trying to figure out if there is anyway built into windows 7/Vista/XP and/or Dpinst to verify that a driver is installed? I created a program that uses DPinst to install a driver and now I need to figure out how to tell the user that it is safe to close the program once the driver is install as the driver takes longer on some machines to install. Would anyone know how to get this to work?

View 2 RepliesI'm using the Microsoft Excel Driver to import an Excel document into a adodb.recordset so that I can remove duplicate rows and put it into the SQL Server database.
The first column has values like 192, 13U, JJJ, etc. but for some reason the query casts it as a double value, and any rows with alpha values get converted to Null. From what I can tell this is because the Majority type is numeric instead of text.
I tried casting it, but got an error.

View 13 RepliesJust started VB programming this week and have found a wealth of information about what I'm trying to do. Problem is, some of it is more complete than others.Here's what I'm trying to do:In Form1 (my main form), I want to instantiate a class that contains a couple of properties (speed setpoint and position setpoint). When I click a button, I want to pass this data to Form2 and populate two textboxes on Form2 with the properties of this object. I want to manipulate the property values on Form2 and click an OK button which closes the dialog and returns the manipulated data, updating the property values of the object. Here's the algorithm I'm following:1) On Form1, instantiate the class2) On Form1's "Pass Data" button click event handler, instantiate a Form2 object and invoke the ShowDialog method, passing the object as a parameter.
3) On Form2, overload the ShowDialog method to accept the object as a parameter and modify the method so that it returns the manipulated class data.4) On Form2, in the ShowDialog method, populate the textboxes with the class data that was passed in.Here's where I get stuck. If I press the OK button on Form2 (DialogResult.OK), it returns me to Form1, but what hook do I have in Form1 to receive the manipulated class data that the ShowDialog method is returning?Here's an example of what I'm thinking about:
Code:
Public Class Form1

I have worked up to the section Adding Code to Load Data into the Customer and Order Objects section with no problems, but the Public Class Form 1 code is throwing an error hilighted in italics as per below,
Private Sub LoadOrders(ByRef currentCustomer As Customer) Dim orderData As NorthwindDataSet.OrdersDataTable = _ OrdersTableAdapter1.GetDataByCustomerID(currentCustomer.CustomerID)
This is the Description returned from the error list,
Error 1
Description - Value of type 'ObjectBindingWalkthrough.NorthwindDataSet.OrdersRow' cannot be converted to 'ObjectBindingWalkthrough.NorthwindDataSet.OrdersDataTable'.

In the walkthrough I also came across a problem under the heading Modifying the Query on the OrdersTableAdapter to Return Only Orders for the Desired Customer This SQL throws an error,
SELECT OrderID, CustomerID, EmployeeID, OrderDate,
RequiredDate, ShippedDate, ShipVia, Freight,

But the following edit to the Where clause gets around the error, the @ symbol is removed,WHERE CustomerID = CustomerIDcould this be causing the problems I am having described above, or is this just an error.

View 3 RepliesI am a novice to programming and am working my way through one of the more popular books on VB in VS 2008 Pro. I am havng a probelm setting up to add dataset controls to a form. I can establish a connection to the data base (a dataset is created and I can preview the data), but the table adapters and binding sources are not being automatically added to the form by the IDE. This seems to be verified by the fact that I cannot drag and drop controls from the data source window to the form.
