Retrieves Item Information From A SQL Express Database?
Apr 5, 2012
Two questions:
1) I have a stored procedure that retrieves item information from a SQL Express database. Should I attempt to do the rounding the stored proc or client side in the app?
2) My rounding needs to be custom. I have a figure that goes down to the 4 place meaing x.0000 if the 3rd digit is 4 or more then I would round up to the nearest cent x.00 if it is 3 and below I would round down. I have looked at the math functions in vb.net and I dont see right out the gate how to accomplish this.
So my question is should rounding be done in SQL or client side and if it is client side do any of you have pointers on how to slice and dice this?
I'm attempting to create a program where the login and password will be verified on an SQL database of user information. I keep getting the error "SQL Execution was unhandled" I marked the code that was causing the error in red. I'm using Visual Studio 8.

I have a tabcontrol with a number of tab pages each of which contains a DataGridView control. I populate each DataGirdView form a local SQL Server. The method which does this works fine. The problem I'm having is I want to use the same method to populate each DataGridView control. I created a private member variable called mDataGridView as a DataGridView and use the TabControl SelectedTab property to determine which tab page the user has selected. I then try the following
[code]...
I then use mDataGridView in my method which retrieves data from the SQL database. Although the compiler dosn't gag at this it doesn't work. Am I right in thinking that mDataGridView references dgvQuoteTemplate?
how to retrieve data from SQL Database using SQL Connection by selecting the individual value in a ComboBox which the data in the ComboxBox is also retrieved from the SQL Database using DataBound. A 'Display' Button will be clicked to display the data in a TextBox, based on which value the user had selected.
Below is my current

The program is currently trying to pull information from three different database tables and compiling the information onto one screen, to do this i am using three different connections and a function to handle the data at each stage. The issue is as my code hits PageLoadStage of "2" and runs the QueryDatabase() Function i am encountering an error of: "OleDB exception unhandled: No value given for one or more of the required parameters." This occurs on line 15 of the first code snippet. Can anyone explain this and/or identify any code issues if that is the cause.
Is it possible to connect to a database on SQL Server R2 Express from Visual Basic Express? I am following a set of tutorial videos done in SQL Server 2005, but cannot seem to connect to create the database. I have created the database in SQL Server R2 Express, but cannot connect. Is there a work around?
Here is the scoop: I am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.
In my application I want the user to enter information that can be stored in BOTH an SQL database and and Excel spreadsheet. I tried research but can't find the code to include or import Excel into my project.I've seen examples like:
Dim excelApp As New Excel.Application Dim excelWB As New Excel.Workbook etc....
but VB doesn't recognize it as a shared namespace. Is it possible to load a spreadsheet into a VB project with express edition?
It's probably just a case of me not looking in the right place or not seeing the obvious, but does anyone know if a machine with just version 2.0 of the .NET Framework should be able to run a VB.NET Express application which accesses a SQL Server Express database file? Or is there an additional requirement for a non-development machine to have some kind of SQL Server Express runtime component in addition to the 2.0 Framework?It seems to be counterintuitive to expect that a VB.NET application would be able to access any kind of SQL Server data without having some kind of SQL Server host component (Express or otherwise) installed. But then again, it seems just as counterintuitive that Microsoft would require the download and installation of the new framework as well as a separate database runtime in order for the average user to run an application with accesses a local SQL Server Express database.To me, it runs contrary to the whole concept of XCopy deployment to require more than just the application's files and .NET Framework for an application to run properly. But nothing I've read so far explicitly indicates that a user would require anything more than the app files and the framework to run an application which accesses SQL Server Express data. But...I can't get any VB Express applications which uses a SQL Server Express databases to run on any machine that doesn't have SQL Server Express installed.What am I missing?(Apologies if this isn't the right group to post this in.
I have run into a problem with saving to database when running the program I am making.
I have an mdf file called prices.mdf and have set the "copy to output directory" to copy if newer setting and set this for the ldf file build action is set to content.. should it be compile or a different setting??
I access this database thru a dataset called pricelist dataset and when the program runs and you go to forms to update the prices, each form has a datagrid with the toolbar and the save icon. Mostly I followed tutorials to help me put it together.
When you run the change price menu for each part of the database, they appear to save each time u re run the program. But once you close down vb2010 and reopen it a day or so later and rerun, the new prices are gone and the old prices are being used.
I thought changing the setting on the mdf file to copy if newer is the usual fix for this, but as I said I have already got it set to copy if newer.
I can't figure out how to track what the dataset is accessing to make sure it is going to that database, or if i have made some sort of other database that it is accessing instead as well as the mdf database.
when I look at the dataset and the column entries for each part of the prices database, as to whether i need to check the dataset itself, or the forms the datagrids are on with the toolbar save icon, or whether there is another place to check to see if it needs to be changed to something like change if newer.
Obviously the program is working and doing the changes, but not storing them in the right place, so I am losing the changes once i shut down my project and reopen it. also I have looked at the file propertiesand made sure they all set to copy if newer PricelistDataSet.xsd, pricelistdataset.designer.vb, and also the pricelist dataset.vb, xcs and xss ones are all set to copy if newer when I look in the solution explorer.butsome of the build part is set to compile on some and none for others As I am not experienced with VB 2010 or databases I am not sure how to track it down
Update: Just looked under each of the forms the data grids are on. and see the copy to output directorys on these are set to do not copy for each of the designer.vb, vb and resx. I am bit hesitant to change these without getting some advice from more experienced people if the forms also need to be set up to copy if newer.
This is what is shown in the coding on one of the forms if u double click on the save icon in toolbar

It was coded by dragging the things from the dataset as a datagrid onto the form. It is not coding I worked out, in case more needs to be added to the coding
I am looking for a way to extract information from a website.That is, by using VB to connect to a site, and retrieve the html code. I then parse it this way.To be more precise, the site is eBay,and I am looking to get certain item information from certain items.I read somewhere that somebody converted it to XML maybe? MSXML was used.

I'm trying to load up a comma delimited text file and have only the name of a person loaded into a listbox. Then when the user selects a person from the listbox have additional stats pertaining to that person show up in a label.
I'm writing a program that retrieves certain lines from a textfile. This textfile is rather large, so is it possible to have a progressbar that shows the progress when it retrieves?
I have a list of names in a database and what i want is to get all of these names and display them in a label or a text box to the user on the website. I have tried to do this using a for loop but it is always overwriting the label each time. I have a list of 10 different names in the database and what it is doing is putting the first name in the label and then overwriting this with the second name and so on until it reaches the last name. I think i need to store each of the names from the database into an array or an arrayList and then make the label display all of the contents from the array or arrayList. The for loop i have used for this is:
Dim g As SQLadmin = New SQLadmin() g.DB("SELECT nameOfPerson FROM Persons") For i As Integer = 0 To g.array.GetLength(0) - 1
[code]....
i can select the names from the database and store them in an array then make the label display each of the names.

GetProcAddress Function Retrieves the address of an exported function or variable from the specified dynamic-link library (DLL).Lets say I have something like this:
Dim moduleHandle As Integer = LoadLibrary("C:myDLL.dll") Dim methodName As String = "" GetProcAddress(moduleHandle, methodName) DLL should be win32 standard dll or .net dll.
How can I run the exported function if I have the address of it through GetProcAddress().If someone could supply some code it would be great.

For some reason, the Add New Item command on the Project Menu is hanging VB on my Vista based machine.but now, it hangs. By that I mean the the little circle cursor spins and spins and spins... This happens even when all I do is start VB, start and new project. and then try to add something, eg. another form, a class, anything except "existing item".
I'm trying to use LINQ to SQL in Visual Basic 2010 Express.
It allows me to create the .dbml file, but in order to drag items from the Database Explorer window to the design surface, I first have to get my database listed in the Database Explorer!(this is a remote SQL Server database - not a local .mdf)
I already have a good, working connection string to the remote SQL Server database, but that doesn't help me when I'm trying to generate the DBML at design time.
Can anyone tell me how to get my remote SQL Server database identified in the Database Explorere window? When I try the "Add Connection", I am limited to Access, SQL Server Compact, or SQL Server Database File. If I try to enter the IP address & port of my DB Host I get a 'database file does not exist' message. Doesn't seem to want to let me point to a remote DB server...

With this code provided by a contributor from this forum ive been able to sort listbox items acording to date from older date to newer date, heres the
Dim dates() As Date = Array.ConvertAll(ListBox2.Items.Cast(Of String).ToArray, Function(s) Date.ParseExact(s, "dd-MM-yyyy", Nothing)) Array.Sort(dates)
[Code]....
How could i use that code to work these out based on only partial checking, what i mean with this is, to sort only by the first date or, to sort by the second date, i rather have it sorted by the first date before the arrow because that is the alarm, the after the arrow date is just the event date information.
