Connecting To A Access 2007 Database?

Jun 12, 2009

I'm trying to connect to a access 2007 database with VB 9 and am having some problems.

I went to Data and then selected add new datasource.

Then I clicked on database and selected Next.

I click on new connection, change the datasource to access database file and then click ok.

It doesn't give me a browser box so I can choose where my access database file is. All it shows me is a connection string label and a text box to the right of it. I tried entering the full path to my accdb file in that connection string box and also just the name of the file itself since it's in the same directory but get the error message "format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0."

Also, when I click on test connection, it always says succeeded even though no database has been selected.

I am trying to create a combo box the fill with the list of names from an Access Database Column, and I have read numerous forums trying to discern what to do but the stumbling block is when I try to copy their code, changing variable names to mine, etc I hit stumbling block when they ask for things like New SqlCommand(sSQL, myConnection) and my VB IDE doesnt come up recognising the sqlcommand when I start typing it in when it tries to autocomplete what I am typing.

VS 2008 Connecting To A Sharepoint List Linked Table In Access 2007

Apr 30, 2011

First timer here, I love the site!

Running:

- VS 2008
- Sharepoint 3.0
- Access 2007
- Windows Vista (The machine I'm developing it from)

History: (Do excuse me if I don't reference different methods I've taken so far correctly, I'm still learning!) I am building some search software for a law firm that I work for in Australia. It's all coming along really well, but I seem to have hit a snag getting data out of sharepoint lists and into my project!

I first attempted to add a web reference to sharepoint and after a while was able to pull in all of the data from the lists, fantastic!(OR NOT!). The issue then was when I attempted to load it up into an array using XMLNodes, whilst it loaded up fine and I could see all the data, if there was a null value in one of the columns, it wouldn't pull that null value across, therefore, I couldn't really use the data...

Connecting To An Access Database

Oct 8, 2008

I have a VB.net program connecting to an Access database. I use ADODB as connection (force of habit, I suppose). The program runs fine on all my machines, but on some of the client machines I get an error on the connection to Access. It is intermittent (sometimes runs without any problems) and happens at different places in the code, but always at the connection with the database. The program connects and closes connections quite a few times during a calculation.

Connecting To An Access Database .mdb?

May 29, 2010

just a few questions. I have read through a of tutorials and snippets on access database.Connecting, updating, inserting, deleting, etc. My main question is this, I have not yet coded the connection to a database using code such as you all. I have always used the wizard to create my connection, table and view this also add the database to the project. Is it better to code the connection, or use the wizard? I have just started creating a program to feed company keep track of there inventory, right now I have 2 tables (feed, misc) both table contain the same things (code, description, price, and quantity). Any way I am getting off the subject, Write the code to connect to the database or use the wizard?

Connecting To Access Database That Uses Workgroups

Jan 14, 2009

So I downloaded the VB 2008 Express edition. My information is stored in a Access 2000 Database I'll call db1.mdb..After I connect I can't seem to run queries, it says that I don't have read permissions. I think this is because my string doesn't contain my workgroup information. I'll just explain my steps.In the Database Explorer I added a Database connection. I chose Microsoft Access Database File, with the Data Provider being
".Net Framework Data Provider for OLE DB"..I browse to my db1.mdb file. The file itself has no password to it. So I test connection and it is fine. Unfortunately when I try to run a query from the Database Explorer, it says I don't have read permissions.When I normally log into Access I fill in workgroup login info. My connection string doesn't have this information so I'm wondering if that could be the cause.[code]How would I add the workgroup login/password to the conenction string ad is this the possible cause?

Connecting 2005 To An Access Database?

Dec 18, 2009

I want to connect to a Access Database I've tried to do it though Data Binding and that doesn't seem to be working so I'm going to have to do this through Code... every book I have tells you how to do it with SQL Server but can't find a example for Access that doesn't involve just using the databinding tool. Writing the queries isn't a issue it's just connecting to the database and then putting that data into a couple of text boxes. Lets say the database is called TestData and the table is ClientInfo and we want to put Date, First, Last into txtBox 1, 2 and 3 respectively when the form loads.

Connecting To A MS Access Database Through A Function?

Jan 27, 2010

This is my function:

Public Function DBConnection(ByVal path As String)
' This function makes the database connection and returns the object
' to reference it.

[code]....

As you can see, I want to initialize a database connection and return it so I can use it in my forms. This function is in a module and my variables are as follows:

Public cn As OleDbConnection
Public cmd As OleDbCommand
Public dr As OleDbDataReader

But I'm not sure how I can use this in my forms, do I just call the function DBConnection and then proceed with my SQL statements? Also, I need some opinions. My application relies on a MS Access database. Is it better to initialize the connection on Form_Load and then close the connection when the user closes the program, or open and close the connections as the queries are run? I'm planning to use some database queries on multiple forms hence the reason I was putting it into a module, but I'm not 100% on how I should proceed with this.

Connecting To Access Database With VB 2005?

I'm new to using databases within VB, so bear with me. I've created a couple of extremely simple tables in Access, and I've successfully connected to them in VB. My questions are:1. Is it possible to import the tables' field properties with the table, such as the captions for the columns or the number formats. Those details seemed to have disappeared during the import. Or do I need to set all these properties within VB after the

Connecting To MS Access Database From .net Form?

Jun 15, 2009

Joined: 20 minutes ago Posts: 1 I am not a student, but had some experience with VB 2005 in MS visual studio while in school a while back. I have recently just decided to get back into learning some coding and downloaded the MS Visual Basic 2008 Express addition, and i believe this is the right forum, not vb.net.

My question is how to open a connection through code to an access database.From what I remember you have to initialize the variables before the functions up top and then open the connection string somewhere. Can someone provide some basic code to open the connection between the form and the database. I am just starting out again and want to basically just populate a combo box by clicking a button, from a table in access with 5 colors.

Access 2007 Database In Bin Folder?

Oct 15, 2011

I am using VB 2008, then I noticed that with the Provider.Oledb.12.ACE = database.accdb whatever connection string uses the bin/debug/database.accdb file when I connect my program with a database. Suddenly, a database with the same name appeared on the lets say "WindowsApplication1" folder. Then whenever I try to debug/run, it throws an error saying that it was unable to copy the database from the "WindowsApplication1" folder to the debug folder even though VB 2008 reads through the database from the bin/debug folder. As a result, after I input values when I debug, it resets because VB 2008 copies the database from the "WindowsApplication1" folder.
