I want to put some description/tooltip text within textbox control which will vanish when the focus is on that control. Its similar to that like in the search box above. When the search box is empty it shows "Search MSDN with Bing" and when the contol gets the focus that string vanishes.
I am connecting to an Access database and using a parameter query with the LIKE operator to return all rows that match query. The string to search for is taken from a Textbox
sql =
"Select * FROM Allview WHERE Info Like" & "*" & CStr(TextBox1.Text) & "*" The query does not return any data in vb, but when run from access with same string, there is data returned.The connection to the database is done correctly, as I am able to return data with various other queries.

I am trying to run a query an Access db from VB. The general query which I want to run is
SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientID = ? or SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientLname = ?
I tried using an input box which captured the user input and pass that variable to the query, but that failed. Then I read about writing a function and using that, however, I keep getting an error which says Function not defined, but when stepping through the code, it seems to work. Here is my function: [Code]
if I have an sql as follows with an external(from a list box) selected event & location as follows: Select * From Table Where Subject ='103' or InStr(Subject, '-103-') or mid(Subject,1,len(103)+1)='103-' or mid(Subject,len(Subject)-len(103),len(103)+1)='-103' and Event = 'T178' and Location = 'Yennora' I get more than one record, I should get only record 13
I had been using this way for while, and it seems it work fine with char and numbers. Dim MyVar1 as String = "Hello" Dim MyVar2 as Integer = 1 Dim MySQL = "Select * from table where field1 = '<field1>' and Field2 = <field2>" MySQL = MySQL.Replace("<field1>",MyVar1).Replace("<field2>",MyVar2) msgbox(MySQL)
But, when I have to deal with blob field, where I store "wav file" for example, I had to read it as array of bytes, and the only way I find to insert the array of bytes in my query string is by using the command.AddParameter Dim myfile As System.IO.FileStream = System.IO.File.OpenRead("full_wav_file_path") Dim myArray(myfile.Length) As Byte myfile.Read(myArray, 0, (myfile.Length)) [Code] ..... Is there another way to insert it without addParameter?
Upon entry into my database, frmLot opens. The form opens in datasheet view. It displays several fields to include one named WorkOrder. The user clicks in the cell named WorkOrder.

I have a problem with the Validation of a Integer-Field in my application.Its an Access DB on a Windows Form.I implemented the validation in DataSet.vb using an ErrorProvider on my Form.The field name is FNr and should not accept duplicate numbers.If the field value is changed, a query checks if the number already exists in the Datatable and if so it sets the error on that field.If the user tries to change the field to a number which is a duplicate I want to cancel the input back to the original number. This works but the
Error message is still shown by the ErrorProvider.The code is partially in DataSet.vb and in Form.vb

I have users check off lab facilities in a UI. I want to use linq to fetch corresponding records for all of the labs that they have checked off. Basically,
Dim myRecs = (From l As EpiData In myDataContext.EPIDatas Where l.facility= _ one of the checked labs
So basically, I need to write a linq query where the "strings" to match are determined at runtime. Is there any way to do this easily? I know that there is a library out there called dynamic LINQ, but (1) it's in C# and I'm writing in VB (2) I'm really just looking for a single, simple solution for this single case.

I download a file into access. One field contains one to many numbers always separated by a colon and a space: I have no control over the download. TheNumbers have a 1 to many relationship to a customer. Each number must then be verified against two separate reference files, and if the numbers match the description related to the number will be displayed.I'm just learning visual basic. I've made the changes manually (yuk-this took forever); I've tried various string/conversion commands; I've taken the data and placed it into excel and tried to manipulate it, without success.In this case is always numeric. In another field, similar problem, it's a combination of text and numbers.
