View 3 RepliesUse Reporting Tools Or Not?
Apr 30, 2011I want to create a report. I have already stored all the query results in their appropriate textboxes. Now that I have all the data I require, do I need to use report viewer?
I haven't connected my database using ADO.net or anything else. Just using code to connect and retrieve data.
Is it appropriate to create a Form and put this data there and arrange it there for printing purposes?

View 2 RepliesIs Free Visual Studio Express Good Enough
Apr 7, 2011I've got .net v4 installed, and the SDK, and I've managed a Hello World msgbox winform .exe app using the free IDE "SharpDevelop", but that doesn't seem to have an Immediate Window which I'm a bit lost without. I also tried MonoDevelop but I couldn't get the Immediate Window there to work, and worse than that, I couldn't even find a way to design forms and plonk down some controls! I think their main interest is C# rather than VB? So it looks like I'm going to have to try the crippled Express Edition from MS - which feels annoyingly limiting from what I've seen - but I'm struggling to understand exactly what missing features would halt me in my tracks.Basically (pun intended, sorry) I'm hoping to see if I can upgrade myself to vb.net from some VB6 dabbling a few years ago. From what I've read it seems mostly quite manageable, I can understand the "everything's an object" concept, etc.
But, would I be able to produce useful software, deployable around the office with proper msi installer packages? If not, then I just won't have the motivation to progress beyond a few little experiments. The question is - can I actually do anything worthwhile without risking the waste of a considerable sum of money if I were to shell out for an uncrippled version?

Sep 10, 2009I am finally ready to move off MSACCESS to SQL. All the advice I've received says to go to SQL Express. I am running VS2008 using VB. I have a lot of experience with MS access. My apps are web based and communicate via web services with the clients. All I need is a good starting point, I want to convert my tables to SQL Express. All documentation I've found has been rather disjointed.
View 1 RepliesDB/Reporting :: Changing An App From CE To SQL Server Express?
Oct 28, 2009I started coding my first "real" stand-alone desktop application in VB 2008 Express. I was led into believing that using SQL Express Compact Edition was the thing to use for my database since it would reside on each PC (laptops) that I installed the program on. I created all my tables and about 6 forms and all was going well until I came to the point where I need to display a grid showing data from multiple tables using what i think is supposed to be a view. Now the problem is that CE doesnt allow views. Here are my questions:
1. Can I convert my CE database file into an SQL Server Express file?
2. Do I have to re-write all my forms that are using the database? I am planning on creating my SQL Server Express database with the same table names and the same field names, data types, etc.

Dec 18, 2008I have just installed VB.NET 2003 and I am trying to manage some databases using SQL Server 2005 Express.When I try accessing the database via the data connection tab, I get the following message.
Quote: You have connected to a version of SQL Server later than SQL Server 2000. The version of Visual Studio or Access that you are using was released before the version of SQL Server to which you are connected. For this reason, you might encounter problems.
Please check with Microsoft to see if there is a service pack that you should apply to Visual Studio or Office in order to get support for the version of SQL Server to which you are connected.You can continue but any new object types might not be enumerated, and it will not be possible to save any objects or database diagrams that you create using the Visual Database Tools.I can not add tables or manage data fields. Does anyone know how to get the patch referred to in the message above? I can not find it via google or this forum.

All of the instrctions I have tri9ed seem to be written for someone who already knows the answers. Here's my problem.I wrote a program using Access, with one table and five queries and it works fine.

When I use the SQL Server Management Studio Expres, it shows my database by give a big message that the database is not registered.
