View 2 RepliesIt's been a while since I've programmed in Visual Basic 6 and very recently nose-dived into Visul Basic 2008 and .NET 3.5 Compact Framework. Hence I'm now becoming a bit stuck. This is NOT homework but a self imposed personal assignment. Only person who will mark it is me, being happy it'll work. Trying to recall and refresh my pprogramming skills the hard way.
I have so far written a program under VB2008 that executed on a WinCE device of which I have to have the terminal connected to the computer as WinCE is not emulated under Visual Studio. I've got the thing reading and writing files on the device using file streams so in a nut shell the sample application I have got working that can write data, find data and amend data.
Now here is where I am becoming stuck. I am now turning my sight on using Microsoft's compact SQL server. To date I have created the data table on the WinCE device using VS2008's data explorer so a database has been created and using the data explorer I can read and write data to the SDF file on the device. (Data Explorer talks to the compact SQL server on the WinCE device via an ActiceSync connection.)

I want to use VB2005 to export tblCustomer from One.mdb to Two.mdb, and replace the existing tblCustomer in Two.mdb, during run time. I basically want to simulate the export function that is available in MS Access (which can export one table from one Access database to another) with VB2005 during run time.

View 1 RepliesI am trying to import data from an access database to a access database that my project uses I am having problems with combo box fields in the database with the data.

I'm using VS 2010, and I did a project using VB and a database in Access. The problem is that when I try to put that "application" on other computers, sometimes, is not working. I thought it can be because on these computers they don't have access, but on one computer, is running another app which is using Access and there is no Access installed. How can I check if my application requires Access to be installed or not?
Here is a example of how I did the connection:
Public AccessOLEDBConnString= "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & myfullpath & ";Jet OLEDB:Database Password=password"
Function getConnection() As OleDb.OleDbConnection

And when I want to have access at the data I'm doing like this:
dim conn as Oledb.OledbConnection
dim sql as string
dim ds as Dataset
