I'm making an alarm clock whose form's backColor should change randomlly every 5 seconds. I am not sure as to how to do this. I'm using a timer so after the alarm clock's given time matches the current time, a song will be played. But I do not know how to count the seconds, or milliseconds that pass after starting time.

Ok so I'm working on an anti-hack program for my online game and when the game is running it hides its self in the background. I need it to periodically or always(Would that slow down the computer its on?)check if processes are running so it can stop them. If possible I would also like to know how I can have it so if the anti-hack's process is closed, the client.exe process will also close.What I have currently is:

I have a program where I need to periodically save the data to a database (if the computer suddenly shutdown) and also send the same data to a serialport.Alla data that is going to be sent and saved resides in two classes.his needs to be done every 1/10s.What's the best way to manage this?
View 2 RepliesIm currently writing a sort of Tamagotchi game or "virtual pet". It's really basic, it runs on timers and has a health meter, hygiene, happiness etc. The problem I have is when the program is closed it obviously resets the properties back to the origional settings. Is there a way I can save the state of the program so when the user opens it back up it is as the same as of the point when it was closed?[Just had an idea, would I set a timer to periodically save the value of the variables to a database and then have them load the next time the user opens the program, for example if the health was 50% on closing or at intervals it would save the health into a column in a db table then when the user re opens the program call that db?]

View 2 RepliesI am connecting to an Access database and using a parameter query with the LIKE operator to return all rows that match query. The string to search for is taken from a Textbox
sql =
"Select * FROM Allview WHERE Info Like" &
"*" &
CStr(TextBox1.Text) &
"*"
The query does not return any data in vb, but when run from access with same string, there is data returned.The connection to the database is done correctly, as I am able to return data with various other queries.

I am trying to run a query an Access db from VB. The general query which I want to run is
SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientID = ?
or SELECT * FROM Patient WHERE Patient.PatientLname = ?
I tried using an input box which captured the user input and pass that variable to the query, but that failed. Then I read about writing a function and using that, however, I keep getting an error which says Function not defined, but when stepping through the code, it seems to work. Here is my function: [Code]

I have to join two main tables, and I need to filter the results by elements in an ASP.NET web form. These filters are created on the fly so I have to use a lot of where extensions to filter the query. I want to execute the query with as optimized SQL as possible.
I am first doing a simple join between TW_Sites and TW_Investigators. Then there are two sub-tables that are involved. TW_InvestigatorToArea and TW_InvestigatorToDisease. While most of the where clauses are working fine, I have found a performance issue that won't be an issue right now, but will be an issue as the table gets bigger.
The arrays DiseaseCategories and DiseaseAreas would be the results of a CheckBoxList result.

'Get Dictionary of Filters
Dim FilterDictionary As OrderedDictionary = Session.Item("InvestigatorFilterDictionary")

I created a RDCL in the designer. I would like the User to Determine what is shown in the Report. How can I change the query at runtime? (ex. changing the customer Name)
This is the query that I have in the properties:
SELECT [Date], Address, Customer, Orders
FROM Report_qry
WHERE (Customer= 'JohnDoe')
how to take a query that returns a single row of data and load that data into textbox controls.I know about ExecuteScalar but it is only good for a single column of data from the query.
View 2 RepliesI've got confused at the moment.I've got one database to developed for MLM (Multi level marketing) company.so, there's one Members database.. each member have unique ID called membercode.. and all members can members under them.. can make 2 members down to 1 member.. all members are added in same table named "tbMembers" and for each member there's a "parentID" where I add member's membercode under whome that member is?.. right?
Now what's the matter is .. I want a SQL Query which can go under and under.. like 'John Doe' having two members under him named 'Suzan' and 'Ellie' and 'Suzan' is also having 2 members under her.. and same for Ellie. and for example.. 'John Doe' having about 300 members in his down line? All members are making transactions.. like they purchase product and Invoices are being generated (invoices tables have 'memberID'). Now the query is how to generate query which can calculate John Doe's Downline's TurnOver from invoices table's 'totalAmount' field's SUM?
I'm using Asp.net 2.0 (VB.net) and use SQL Server 2005 Express.
I have created a parameterized query in my tableadapter. Here is the SQL:
SELECT CalcinerID, Comments, CorrectiveActions, CrucibleOxideWt, CrucibleWeight, DCPressure, DCTemperature,
Date, DischargePressure, FeedPressure, FiredCrucibleOxideWt, GmSampleWt, LIMSNumber, LotNumber, MaterialType,
OperatorID, QualLabOperator, QualLabTimeStamp, RecordID, ToteBinNumber [code]....
When I use the Execute Query button in the Tableadapter Query Builder, the query works fine; I get all the rows I expect. However, when I run this in my code, the query behaves like an equality statement (i.e. Lotnumber = @Lotnumber) rather than a LIKE statement (Lotnumber LIKE '%' + @Lotnumber + '%').Here is the code that is not behaving correctly. Note that I have a textbox, LotSearchTextbox, where I enter the portion of the Lotnumber that I want to use as the filter. I also have a button, LotSearchButton:
Private Sub LotSearchButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LotSearchButton.Click
Try
Dim SomeNumber As Integer = Me.LotCalcinerO2TableAdapter.FillByLotNumber(Me.CalcinerDBDataSet.LotCalcinerO2,[code].....
why the query works in the Query Builder but not in the code?
I have a data table that looks like this:

Now, I want to execute a sql query that will display the top 5 based on average, so i did this:
SELECT DISTINCT USERNAME,IAVERAGE FROM myTable WHERE IAVERAGE > 0 AND DATE_LOGGED='05-07-2012' ORDER BY IAVERAGE LIMIT 0,5 and the result is:
USERNAME ICOUNT IAVERAGE DATE_LOGGED

I have 7 company Divisions that sit in an access database.I then use this list to populate two comboboxes in my windows form.However I get a syntax error in my SQL Query if the Division name is more than one word.For example in my access database I have two columns one is a status column and the other is a division column. If for example the Division is called 'Corporate' the status column is called 'Status Corporate' and the division column is called 'Corporate'.The SQL query works fine in this scenario.However if I have a Division that is more than one word, lets say 'Operations Division' I get an error in my SQL Query that says -

I want to query an access database with variable data defined by the user. The "Search" criteria would be in a textbox. I made a query like
SELECT askID, Question
FROM chita
WHERE (askID LIKE 'Textbox10.text%')
and referring to this query as
Form1.ChitaTableAdapter.searchrec(Form1.ChitaDataSet1.chita)But id does not take the value of the textbox, instead it takes the Textbox10.text as a value. Is it possible to refer to it like this, or should I Linq?

I know that LINQ queries are deferred and only executed when the query is enumerated, but I'm having trouble figuring out exactly when that happens.Certainly in a For Each loop, the query would be enumerated.What's the rule of thumb to follow? I don't want to accidentally enumerate over my query twice if it's a huge result.
For example, does System.Linq.Enumerable.First enumerate over the whole query? I ask for performance reasons. I want to pass a LINQ result set to an ASP.NET MVC view, and I also want to pass the First element separately. Enumerating over the results twice would be painful.It would be great to turn on some kind of flag that alerts me each time a LINQ query is enumerated. That way I could catch scenarios when I accidentally enumerate twice.
I have been for over one week now looking for an answer here.I am an Access Programmer for over more than 10 years now... But as limitation start to appear I move to VB.Net but now I'm encountering some troubles changing my codes from Access to VB.Net. One of them is trying to use one query inside another as I was able to do it in access just using the name of the query. Here is a bit different. I'm using the query builder so I save that query for later use. My query is:

What is the preferred way to query and update a db? I see some using an SQL statement and other use vb to write out a query. What is the best (or suggested) method. I managed to query and update (almost) an Access db although when I see other samples I see it written in a totally different way.
