im trying to save data (0 or 1) from vb2010 to SQL2008.
How can I do it inside vb2010? In class or form? which 1 is recommended?
The following is I write in form class:
If Trim(CChar(cElectrical)) = CheckState.Checked Then
loDataAdpr.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("@scopee", OleDbType.Char).Value = "1"
Else
loDataAdpr.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("@scopee", OleDbType.Char).Value = "0"
End If
I have a problem writing dates from VB2010 into SQL2008.
I am forming DateofBirth from Comboboxes using DateSerial, so far so good.
DateOfBirth=DateSerial(DobYear, DobMonth, DobDay)
MsgBox(DateofBirth) displays the date as DD/MM/YYYY, as I would expect in the UK.
But, SQL is expecting the date in MM/DD/YYYY format. When the DD is below 12 the variable writes in the database, albeit with DD and MM the wrong way round. As soon as DD goes above 12, the program halts with an SQLException, obviously because SQL knows that MM can't be higher than 12.
I am going round in circles trying to work out the method to ensure that the date variable in the SQL INSERT statement is in the right format.
im trying to save my inserted data from vb2010 to sql db.

I'm using VS2010 and SQLServer 2008. I'm trying to test for DBNull in datafields, but every formulation of a test I have imagined (or found) throws an error. Specifically,"The value for column 'ColumnName' in table 'TableName' is DBNull." (system.data.strongTypingException).Well, not too helpful. I know it's DBNull, and I want VB to recognize this.Here is what I've tried so far (all with the same result).

View 2 Replies(pardon me for re-using someone else's wording - but it seems this question comes up in each NEW version of the IDE) Does anyone know how to disable VB autosave? I like to open a working solution/project, mess around with it, and if I cant get it working, I like to exit without saving so that the original working version is left.
But silly VB 2010 autosaves changes, therefore stuffing up, a once working solution/project. I can understand autosaving whilst working though a large solution, but I prefer to click save once I have accomplished a routine, in the solution/project.
I have a VB6 application that is accessing an sql server 2008 database using odbc. The application also accesses an ACCESS database. How can I create a temporary table in my ACCESS database using a table from the SQL database. I have tried the following:
SELECT GLTransaction.* INTO TempAPEntry0 In C:DOCUME~1DONNPS~1.000LOCALS~1TempCSAReport2564.MDB FROM GLTransaction WHERE GLTRSource = 641;
I am currently creating an application to track timekeeping (a clock in/out system) and I am trying to work out the best way to do this.
I have a Main Form which contains buttons to ;
- Log in
- Out for Break
- In from Break
- Log out
When a user presses the "log in" button the logon form appears, the user then enters their username and password. What happens next is where I would like the help.
Process is as follows:Click Logon Enter Username/Password Check Logon Form for errors (eg no password etc) Check User is in Database (using SQL query) If user is in DB and username and pass are ok then refer back to the main form to perform Stored Procedure for what the user wants to do (eg logon or or out for break etc). Set label on main form to show user as logged on My question is should I be using a public variable and calling the main form again or in the user logon form having 4 options and using an IF ELSE to select the appropriate Stored Procedure?
I would like to pull a set of records in a SQL sproc by passing in a list of system.guid and also by passing in a list of integer keys.I can put the guids ihto a string, of course, but the question is - how do I quote the test values so they are recognized as UIDs by SQLIn essence I was to DECLARE @pklist AS VARCHAR(1000)-- This would look like "'45F4AE2A-D27C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683','EC824D02-D37C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683','BA8E4D02-D37C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683'" coming out of the execsql from vb .net - I think :-) but it seems it needs to look likeSET @pklist = '45F4AE2A-D27C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683,EC824D02-D37C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683,BA8E4D02-D37C-D711-83FD-0008C7FA9683'SELECT * from dbo.members WHERE members.cpk IN (@pklist)This only returns the record matching the first UID in the string. Is there something I can wrap a t-sql VARCHAR string with so each guid will be seen distinctly?In trying to do this with a list of integer keys, the problem is the value is seen as part of a string and is not cast to an integerIt would seem creating a table from a parsed version of the string passed in and then doing a JOIN would accomplish what I need as well, but struggling with the T-SQL syntax for that.

View 4 RepliesI have used a data repeater and linked it with the data source. The program lists all the names of clients from the database with an ID number and also a URL.My first question is how can i make the url that is displayed as a link label, link to the default browser when clicked. I normally use the Shell("c:/program files/internet explorer/iexplore.exe "URL HERE") command but i'm not sure how to make this work with the data repeater?
My second question is to do with starting services, i need to take the ID number from the current data repeater record and then place it within a service name, for example if the service was callled Client_** the two ** represent the client ID. This then needs to start the service when button is clicked on the current record on the data repeater.
My third and final question is how to query a field in a current record of a data repeater, for example if i wanted to query a field called ID for that current record shown, is there a function i need to use to call the information?
I have a combobox that I am populating with the contents of a dataset (from an access database). The field that it is showing has lots of values that repeat. I want to remove the repeats of the data so that only unique records are shown in the combo box. I imagine this can be done with the SQL for the data adaptor? I tried: "SELECT type FROM products GROUP BY type" and "SELECT DISTINCT type FROM products" but both still showed the repeating records.
View 8 Replieslets say I have a form (form1) with lables a-z which are all designed with default text "0". So they all show 0 on program startup. which is fine. I also have a dialog with 2 TextBoxes; I want my program to update the default text/value on (only)form1 labels x, y and z to whatever was put into the textboxes when i press the OK button on the Dialog, so these specified labels show the 'new' value on next startup. Is it even possible or should I save the values to a file which loads the values in the specified labels on startup?

I mean I have extremely basic capabilities and don't quite understand this stuff inside and out like most of you do.Anyway, I'm trying to code a fantasy football draft program in VB 2010 that utilizes the MS Internet Transfer Control 6.0. It will retrieve the HTML from a website, say ESPN, and parse the data into player names, rankings, and other stats. Should all be simple strings/sub-strings. It will then populate a DataGridView control so that each row in the DGV has the player's name, ranking, projections for the season, etc. After this has been populated, the program will be designed to allow me to draft players and assign them to the various teams automatically. I am the commissioner and we do an off-line draft, so I will just make picks for everyone and submit them online later.

I have the following code that needs to connect to my four spreadsheets for FileName(). I havent built the loop yet for the other three, but I am so used to working with a variable. Is this the best way (datatable) to get a single cell from a spreadsheet and if so how do I view the data once it is in the datatable? Ideally I would like myDataArray(3) to hold the 4 cell values. Please help. I am stuck. I want to be able to get the cell value $K2 form each sheet without invoking Excel. I think I am close, but dont know how to get the data from the table. These four cell values will be displayed and then emailed to our Country Director.

View 7 RepliesI have used VB (versions 2 - 6) through many years; however, I am crash-course training myself into the VB2008 / VB2010 world kicking a screaming. I would like suggestions as to what SQL database access method should I focus more on in my learning process without making me feel that I'm a million years behind. I know I have WinForms where I can create a datasourse and drag / drop fields or tables on a form to create a grid (not really what I'm looking for).
My trouble isn't so much designing the form but in how I access the database. Theres XML, LINQ to SQL, ADO.NET, and many other methods. Not only do I need to grasp these methods quickly but I also need to know what type of projects I should create. What I mean is...I was thinking that I would design a WinForm app; however, I see that there are WPF apps and others to chose from. This is getting deep. I know it depends on the project that I'm working on. My plans are to write an app based off of either an SQL Express 2008 or SQL Server 2008 database. This first app will be standalone for now but may later become multi-user. I know I'm far behind on my learning curve coming from VB6. I have read a bit on VB2005 / 2008 / 2010. I own
both VB2008 and VB2010. I use VB2008 at work. I know ADO.NET is still alive but by what I read online, it's a dying method and is only kept for backward compatibility. XML and LINQ to SQL and other methods are all pretty new to me.
I've written a very simple program that writes a tiny "config.cfg" (text) file to the computer (using StreamWriter), and a second program that is supposed to read that data back.
Unfortunately, it appears you can't save to the same folder as your program under Win7 ("Program Files (x86)" is a restricted folder.) So instead, VB automatically saves my data to the "C:Users(myname)AppDataRoaming..." folder. This is annoying, but tolerable.
PROBLEM IS: How does my second app then FIND my data file (without doing a time-wasting drive search every time the program is run?)
My code:
' Program #1:
Private Sub cmdSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdSave.Click
Dim FileWriter As New StreamWriter("config.cfg")
