Make Connection Of Window Application To Sql Server Database?
Sep 18, 2009
I am doing a project on window application but the problem is that I want to connect the connection of database to the SQL Server database. Does anyone knows the connection strings of the connection.
i make a connection with SQL server 2005 database using Wizard in Express Edition 2008,I have got data in my text field using dataset , but now I want to execute query for insert, select and update but I don't know my connection vaiable and how to execute query and get data .what kind of connection is this Adodb or oledb etc
Ok I have a question about connection string in vb.net. Im using the string [Code] but here I am specifying the serverName by its name, now if I deploy my application and send it to another person to use it I see that server name is changing according to the name of the computer. Is there any way where by I can make my application to detect itself the Name of the server present in that computer and use it in connection string?
After running the following sub (VS debugger), I try to detach the database in SSMS, but it shows the connection open still and won't let me detach. If I close program in debugger, the database shows no connections. I check the dataadapter's connection in the finally block and is shows closed. What gives
Private Function ClientMasterDBFiles(ByVal MasterClientDBConnection As String, ByVal DBName As String) As DataTable
If you have ever noticed in the Task Manager, when you right-click on the running task, you have many options which include 'Minimize' and 'Maximize'. Is there anyway to do achieve this in vb?
I am tring to make the below application work with SQL Server 2005 Database Currently it works for test.mdb, which is in the same folder with the application. How shoud I modify the MapPath to work with SQL Server.
I'm trying to make a connection to SQL Server 2008 express Using this code
Dim Ordr As String = "Select * from Orders" Dim con As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=localhost;Integrated Security=SSPI;" & _ "Initial Catalog=Orders") Dim com As New SqlCommand(Orders, con)
[code]....
I get this error:A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
Dim conn As New SqlConnection("Server=.SQLExpress;Data Source=;Integrated Security=SSPI") Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("", conn) cmd.CommandText = "CREATE DATABASE MyDBTest22 ON ( FILENAME = 'D:dbTestATTTTTTT.mdf' ), ( FILENAME = 'D:dbTestATTTTTTT_log.ldf' ) FOR ATTACH"
[code]....
It ran without any error but when I opened SSMS, I could not see my file attached to the server. Also, I tried to make a connection, but it says file does not exist but when I tried to re-run the above code, it says File already exists.Something wrong with my way of doing it? I want to see it attached with the instance of my SQL Server Express 2005, using SSMS.
I've been Searching the Net for hours now, and i can't really seem to find anything clear and straight to the point.
I need to create a Server/Client application using VB.net 2008, it's actually my first time to have a database on another computer. So I first searched the internet for the things i need to make this software.

I set my laptop's IP to 192.168.1.1 and my computer's IP to 192.168.1.2.Now I place the database on my computer, the database name is db_transportasi.Problem is, how to connect my computer's database from my laptopSpecification :I'm using this string below for my connection :Data Source=ARVID-THEODORUSSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DB_TRANSPORTASI;Integrated Security=TrueI already setup my SQL Configuration Manager, enabled the TCP/IP, switch to the IP Addresses tab and set the IPAII Port Properties to 2301I turned off my firewall so I don't have to set any exceptionQuestion
3 years ago I developed a vb.net application that connect to sql express 2005 data base.The application worked fine.e replaced our computers, so we installed the application again. (The same exe file, the same sql server and so on).Now, only when loading few forms I receive the following message: n error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)Note that when we log in to the application, a connection is needed. The user verifying is working fine; it means that the connection is working properly.
I want to create a global connection class from Sql server database to vb.net to make it easy in later editing the connection. Could anyone guide me the way to code both creating and calling to individual form?
I've just started ASP.NET for real, and I was wondering if it is possible to use connection strings from Data Sources instead of hard-coding them. I've added my connection in Data Sources and it works, and I can also drag a table to a page in design mode, but I can't figure out how to access it in code. Here's what I get when I drag it in:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display.">[code].....
I have Visual Basic 2010 Express and SQL Server 2008 R2 (not Express) installed on my Windows 7 machine. In Visual Studio, I am attempting to create a Data Connection to a database in SQL server. Server Mgmt Studio is not running. When I attempt to add a connection in Database Explorer, to the AdventureWorks _Data database, I get the message "This file is in use. Enter an new name or close the file that's open in another program." There are no programs running except VB, except maybe for the SQL Server engine running the background.Please note that I can open and access tables within a database in code within Visual Studio, I just can't add a connection in Database Explorer.Am I doing something wrong? I've been very frustrated on this issue for a long time

I am trying to connect a VB.NET 2003 Oledbdataadapter through the wizard to a SQL Server 2005 Database, but i get an error message during the wizard.These are my steps:New Connection, Select provider (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server), Select Connection:server name, log on: use windows NT integrated security, select database. I do all these steps then click "test connection" and it is fine, but when I click "ok" and error message pops up."Unable to connect to database. It is only possible to connect to SQL Server Desktop Engine databases and Microsoft Access Databases with this version of visual studio."
I have a little problem with application setting in VB.net 2008. I want to switch main server and backup server connection string with combobox. [Code] It did change the Application Setting connection string in the main form when combobox1 was changed. But the problem comes, when child form was called. On the child form there is DataGridView with Dataset using application connection string. Even the Backupserver was selected on the main form, child form dataset connection string doesn't change. I don't know how to pass the current connection string to child form dataset although it is set to use application setting.
