View 2 RepliesI'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?
Can I make applications in the Free version of VB Express and use them on other machines?

I have an Oracle database (external app) that contains a number of tables that I need to get data from, however I also have an SQL database that contains a number of tables that my app is using.
e.g. Oracle Table name PD_112
Structure:
CODE:
What I want to do is get all the data from the Oracle table to display in a list control however I want the values in the DISP_ID column of the Oracle table to be change to the corrosponding DESC values from the DispTbl e.g. 5 from the Oracle table would display Piping instead of 5.
I know how to do this if both the tables where in one database system e.g. Oracle or SQL, however I am not sure the best why to do this when the tables are in 2 different data sources.
Below is the code for doing this in the same datasource:

I am creating a small admin reporting tool that gathers certain information on some PCs. Unfortuantly the user that is running the tool doesnt have access and I cant give access to those particular machines. What I have done is created a user on these machines that can get this information.
I would like to then have the reporting tool run certain parts of the code as this user so the information can be obtained, without any intervention from the user running the tool. Can I hardcode this user into the code so that it runs the code as the user?
Im writing a simple VB program that connects to an oracle DB which retreives and inserts data to a table I created.[code].....
I want to be able to search through a table I have created to store all the information.Rather than just searching for one variable which would be easy to do, I want to give the user the option to filter out the search from the form.So say the user hits "Find", they would be given access to 10 comboboxes, they would select the information they want to search for (They do not have to select every box) and then click "Do Find".Then the form would display all the results of the query in the form.
Is there a way to use VB 2008 Express to connect to Oracle 11? When I go to add new data source I dont see anything for ODBC
View 2 RepliesCurrently working on a web-service with Oracle10g as back-end. Here is my problem.
1. The table I need to populate has 100 columns. I have no control over the design of the table.
2. I wanted to use the "deriveparameters" method of OracleCommandBuilder, but found out that this is "costly" in terms of performance. What I initially planned to do was to derive the parameters from an open connection, close the connection, then maybe cache the parameters obtained but I don't know if this is possible.
I am unsure how big of a hit the performance will get if I continue using the "deriveparameters" method WITHOUT caching the parameters driven. The environment is as follows
-intranet
-around 2000 users
-users spread out in different parts of the country
I am not familiar where they will put the web pages of the application, the web service and the database. I don't know if they'll be putting it in different servers or on one server, but that's something we cannot control too, that's why I am looking for the best approach.
I just don't want to hard-code all that parameters and if, for instance, we need to change some properties/parameters, it will be a pain to maintain the code. It would be nice if someone here can point a way to automate the whole thing w/o the performance of the system taking a hit.
I have a stored procedure on an oracle database called : GET_HVE_PACKAGE_VERSIONS This basically calls versions of PLSQL packages as stores the versions into a table. I am having big problems trying to call this procedure. I have tried everything. I am currently able to create and update etc etc using the executeNonQuery method and I thought that I would be able to call a procedure them same way, obviously not
the whole project depends on me being able to call procedures against the database.

View 3 RepliesI recently upgraded my system to Windows 7 64bit and ever since then I have had nothing but issues with my code attempting to access an Oracle database. I was using msdaora for my connection string however that does not work in 64bit. I changed over to OraOLEDB.Oracle which everything I can find on Google says to use however it fails every time. I have installed Oracle 11g 2 times now and even tried reinstalling VB.net 2010 and still no luck.
Here is my connection string....
Code:
MyConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Server=emsp.grhq.XXXX.com;Data Source=emsp;User Id=XXXX;password=XXXX"

I 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 RepliesI 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.

I downloaded the free Visual Basic Express Edition to create an application that connects to a Mysql database.

What is the best way to set the default value for 'bit' or boolean data types in SQL express? I am using the data base explorer in VB Express 2008 and the only way I seem to be able to do it is by using ((0)) for false and ((1)) for true.

View 3 RepliesI 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.
1.Establishing a connection to a database(preferably one that is inherit within the project and can travel with it)
2. Setting the correct references to the database ( I tried connecting via JET with windows 7 and I get an error that I cannot use JET)
3. Query the database (Access) with SQL, and return those results to a recordset.
4. Loop through the recordset.
5. close the database connection
6. Open recordset and write data to table.
