Querying A Database Without Using Databinding?

Dec 24, 2009

I`d like to do a query to a SQL server database using the statements like "SELECT...FROM...." an so on. Then I`d like to save results of the query to an array or other variables. I`d like to handle the data of the query results "manually". I don`t want to use the datagridview and tableadapters and so on which are created when I drag a table from the datasources window to the form. is the ADO.NET and datasets the right tool at all? If yes, I believe these are the first steps needed:

- create a connection string
- create a connection and open it
- create a dataadabter
- create a dataset and populate it with the dataadabter

The first problem is the connection string. When I create a connection to a new data source in datasources window, a string is created and saved to some configuration file. Can I use it and how?

Querying A Sum() Value From Access Database?

Mar 15, 2012

Basically for normal select queries from my database I have no problems as I would put the following and then bind it to a controller to display the iteam, however now I am trying to query sum of a field from the database, but I think it should be different as It's giving a Nullable value:

SELECT SUM(PointsRedeemed) AS tAward
FROM [Transaction]
WHERE (BusinessId = ?) AND (CardNo = ?)

My form has a DateTimePicker and a DataGridView on it. I need to have it query a SQL Server DB and return the table to the DGV. The query is to search the Date_Joined field for date less than the date that the user input with the DTP. With the code below, my DGV is populated with all data and not the filtered data I need. I also have added a Go button for the purpose of execution instead of using the ValueChanged sub for the DTP.

Querying Date And Setting A DateTimePicker?

Mar 18, 2010

I am querying a date from my Access 2007 database in the format: MM/DD/YYYY It's then saved as a string

Depending on the month and day, it might be 1 or 2 characters. To set the DateTimePicker, it takes it as this format: DateTimePicker.Value = New DateTime(YYYY, MM, DD)

How can I switch around the characters in my string so that it can satisfy the format the DateTimePicker wants? I was thinking about some kind of reader that "consumes" characters until it reaches a delimiter ("/") and then does something with it. I remember doing that in JAVA but not in VB.NET

Saving Related Tables And Querying Them?

Nov 9, 2009

I am having a problem saving related tables and querying them. I have both data binding sources on the form and I have both being added, end edit, and both being saved. When I "view all" and click on the related table "crimes" they're not showing with the Inmate that committed them. I have gotten it to do this with a code similar to that below and I am wondering what I'm doing wrong so that the datagridview for crimes will display the correct crimes for the correct inmate. The primary key for inmates is DOC# and the Primary Key for Crimes is "Entry ID"

Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click

.net - Querying Twice-separated-or-more Objects In A Relation Chain?

Not sure if I am using the correct term, but it's not child/parent since they aren't nested objects. In my application I've got a User, UserUserGroup, and UserGroup objects which are pretty standard, UserUserGroup is a linking object with corresponding IDs. I am using Linq-to-SQL so unforunately it doesn't used nested objects, but it still knows the relation.

ASP.Net (IIS 7.5) Querying Active Directory Without User Credentials?

Dec 20, 2011

I have multiple web applications that I've built for our intranet. I wanted to allow users to not worry about logging in, so these apps pull the currently logged on user when they hit the site. I used this code for this to happen:

Dim userName As String = User.Identity.Name
CurrentUser = userName.Substring(userName.IndexOf("") + 1)

This works like a charm, no issues here. The next step is to query Active Directory for that logged in user to pull various information. How I currently have it coded, it works like a charm on the devleopment side (typical because I'm not running IIS).The problem becomes when I publish it to my IIS server (Windows Server 2008 R2 running IIS 7.5), I get error messages that point to the specific line in my code that queries Active Directory. The interesting part is these apps were working great last week. They broke after my server admin did the latest batch of Windows Updates (please note, I am running them using .Net Framework 4.0)Before I had each app setup so that Windows Authentication was Enabled, the other Authentication types were disabled. For providers, Negotiate is #1, NTLM is #2. For Advanced Settings, Extended Protection = Off, and Enable Kernel-mode authentication is checked.

[code]...

In doing this I also removed the string that was higher up in my web.config section. This did not work either (fyi, this was a great reference[url]I then tripped across this article: [url] which seemed to be a similar situation. This article eventually referenced "Double Hops", after looking into this and trying a few things, this didn't solve my issue either.Next StepI am going to try a new IIS 7.5 implementation on a different Server 2008 R2 system and essentially start from scratch, to see if the problem recreates or not.
