Jun 28, 2009
-in my database..there are 2 tables..
1)Leave_application
2)Staff
-how do i type the code to minus out the number from "Leave_balance" (in the Staff table) with the number from "Days_apply" (in Leave_application table)
-how do i type the code to minus out the number from "Leave_balance" (in the Staff table) with the number from "Days_apply" (in Leave_application table) eg: 10 days (from "Leave_balance" Staff_ID "S0001") - 2 days (from "Days_apply" ID "abc") = 8 days and then update the "Leave_balance" of staff_ID "S0001" with 8 days
I created a database in my project, and added a table and some columns to it. Now after making several changes to the program I decided to add some more columns, but for some reason those new columns don't show up in the SQL query builder or the database explorer. I realize that this is an oversimplified explanation
I am currently using microsoft access 2007 and vb.net 2008. The problem senario is this: I have a database-table that contains two columns, items, and the price of each item. I tried to drag this table to the form as a checkbox tool, but only one checkbox1 was diplayed. The table consists of four rows. My requirement is when I drag the checkbox I want to see the all items in the first column, i.e. four checkboxes that hold the same name as in the table in the database, and when I check one or more items to be able to use, in somehow, the price(s) to make some kind of calculations.
I have Dataset ds filled up with values Until now I was displaying values in GridView. Now I want that all the rows should be columns and columns should be rows.I have 2 options: Either 1 I can directly convert grid to columns and display it, or 2 I can convert the GridView to html and then write loops to convert. I was trying the 2nd option but I cant figure out how I should do that.[code]With this code I am still getting same as GridView. Please help me for converting rows to columns and vice versa.
I've the following code which successfully makes an average for all the columns from a table. What I need to do though is ignore certain columns in this equation.
Dim totalNumber as Double = 0 Dim count as Integer = 0 For x = 0 To xyz123.Tables(0).Columns.Count - 1
I have two tables Employees and CafeLogs. Some employees can be cashiers and also customers at the Cafe shop.
Table structures:
Employees: EmployeeId(PK) , FirstName, LastName CafeLogs: LogId (PK), CashierId, EmployeeId, Value, => CashierId and EmployeeId are the data from column EmployeeId of Empoyee table
Table relationship:
Employees 1:N CafeLogs (CashierId (FK))
[code]....
Right now I know how to select only LogId, Employee's name, and , Value, not with Cashier name yet.
Dim query = From log In db.CafeLogs _ Join emp In db.Employees On emp.EmployeeId Equals log.EmployeeId _ Select log.LogId, emp.FirsName, emp.LastName, log.Value
My problem is with the tickets table, I have listed the user that created the ticket, the tech who will solve the ticket and a user that over sees the ticket. All three users reference the users table. So how do I can I query the tickets table and get all three users that reference the same table storing the users?
Table1: Tickets 1) Ticketnumber 2) EnteredBy User 100 3) Issue
[code]....
What I can do now is something like this:
Select Ticketnumber, EnteredBy, Issue, UserName FROM Tickets INNER JOIN Users ON Tickets.EnteredBy = Users.UserID
I am using the following code to alter an table imported from an Excel spreadsheet
Dim SQL As String = "ALTER TABLE receipts ADD payee integer, account integer, category integer, reconciled boolean" Dim dataread As New OleDb.OleDbCommand() dataread.Connection = Connection1
[code]....
Both ExecuteNonQuery() actions yields the exception message {"Syntax error in field definition."}The error message does not happen with the first if the boolean column is not there (I tried Tes/No as a definition - but that also failed.The second query to modify the ID column from autonumber to integer I assume fails because it is a Primary KeyHas?
Rather than running numerous queries in Access I am trying to write a front end for a DB2 database. The Access database is getting to a size that it is causing Access 2007 to have reliability issues and frequent compacting is required. I have created the Dataset, the Table Adaptors, and the Connection String already, but when I put in a bit of code in to fill the Table Adaptors the remote connection I have to work is going crazy (chewed up about 180MB before I realised it was pulling data from work).
Before I started the project I copied the .accdb to my local PC HDD and I pointed the connection string to it, but it still looks like it is trying to pull data from the work network. If it was a small database I wouldnt be concerned but it is pulling major data every time I run it. I have only 2 out of the 4 Table Adaptors running and it didnt fill them even after 10 minutes.
Here is the code I was trying to run... Server name has been substituted for Server for obvious work reasons.
Because the tables are so large I was looking for a way to pull only the columns I need to from the tables, I tried adding .SOFT_ID to the first line of code but the TA spat the dummy message below...
Value of type 'System.Data.DataColumn' cannot be converted to Application_Name.DS_DB2Database.Server_SOFTDataTable'.
I would also like to pull just the data columns I need to speed up the query.
Note: In case youre wondering why I am not connecting directly to the DB2 database. I currently dont know where it is stored and while leveraging Access I am trying to put a level of separation between the app and the db for the time being, later I will try connect directly.

i have this solution that i'm suppose to make an installer of, but because it calls a datebase and the database is not within the solution therefore it was not included in the installer.
and my installer cant work correctly. is there anyway i can go around doing it?
[Code] my issue is that now i need two cases, first i need a query that will return the date created and modified of the table and i also need to know if its possible to query a list of table names in the database ordered by date created but that have a certain thing in their names. for example the database contains the following tables: [Code] and what i need the query to return is the tables that contain "Data", settings and employees are for the other functions of the program. so the query should return the 4 data tables in order of date created. but i have no idea how to go about doing that in the query, does anyone know how this is done?
i have encountered this error Variable 'dsNewRow' is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime when i click on the button to insert data into my ms access database.
I am having a remote server it has INVENTORY DATABSE , and also iam having same databse in my local system. I want to populate by local database table with my Remote database table through Vb.net code by click a button. How to do this .
I have a table adapter that I use just to fill a form when it loads. I've added two new columns in the backend and went in through the "DataSources" and added them. They appaear in the XSD designer but for some reason are not filling the form when it loads. I the form is writting to the backend correctly via hand coded SQL.
It is returning all the columns by id. I need only the primary key. When I add the following line it is empty: WHERE SIK.indid = 1 Why is that? Is there other ways to do the same thing and working? Since I am in the rush
I have a table that contains procedure codes among other data (let's call it "MyData"). I have another table that contains valid procedure codes, their descriptions, and the dates on which those codes are valid. Every time I want to report on MyData and include the procedure description, I have to do a lookup similar to this:
From m in dc.MyDatas _ Join p in dc.Procedures On m.proc_code Equals p.proc_code _ Where p.start_date <= m.event_date _
[Code]....
Is there a way to turn a complex lookup (i.e. a non-trivial join) like this into something SQL can recognize so that I can define it in one place and just reference the description as if it were a field in MyData? So far the only thing I can think of is to create a SQL view on MyData that does the linking and bring that into my data context, but I'd like to try to avoid that.
My application is in VS2008 coded in vb.net.I have a table with three columns FromDate,Todate and Schedule.FromDate and ToDate will have date values whereas Schedule will have a any of these values(weekly,Monthly,Yearly) In my Form i have given some provision to the user to check the records.
My requirement is The currentdate that is Today's date should be compared with the values of Fromdate and ToDate.First it should be check whether Schedule value is Weekly or Monthly or Yearly.If it is weekly than it should check the record in between fromDate to ToDate with a increment of one week.That means it should first check the first value of fromDate than add 7 days to the value and then again check from fromDate and this should continue till it reaches Todate.
I am using data grid view in Windows Form standalone application to display items as excel spread sheet in VB.NET. I got a table named CostTypes with column names [CostTypeID, CostType] and values [1,External] and [2,Internal] (These are constant but more values can be added to table).
I want to create columns with names of the values[External , Internal] in DataGridView. If I use databiding directly I get columns [CostTypeID,CostType] which is not what I am looking for.
I'm working with Microsoft Word and trying to generate a table with headings that may span one to three columns. I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this. The table should look something like the following:Counters
Times (hrs) Flows (gals) Day Regens Well Starts
[Code]...
To get it to look this way, I'm not exactly sure what to do from VB.
