I have been working on this all day and still haven't had any luck at getting it to work. I am using the SqlDataReader Object to retrieve data. I am using the code below to send a value to the stored procedure.The problem is that the value is sent enclosed in quotes so I dont get any data back. I have tried using .text.replace("""","")
I searched around and could not find a solution so I am sorry if I started something that has already been covered. Want I want to do is run a command line code and simply return a boolean of if it was successful or not. Is this possible? Typically when you run something (example net user User Pass) it will return a value "The command Completed Successfully." If I return this value I will have it from there.
im not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but thought I'd give it a shot.I created a windows service, and it accepts startup parameters to set the connection string for my database connection. (-L for live, -D for dev, -S for stage etc.)[code]I installed the service using installutil (I already tried using sc.exe) and I can't specify startup parameters.So if I go into Services and go into my service properties and manually type -D into the Startup Parameters box and hit start, I get -D as my parameter, life is good. But the parameter won't save in the startup parameters box, it just reverts to a blank box whenever I close the properties page.[code]
i am running a dos command. now i created checkboxes to add parameters to the command. [code] but it only gives me a 1 or 0 but i want the parameter -h, -t, -v when the checkbox is checeked.
I am passing some comma separated parameters to console Application. I want to split those string for that I have written below script but it is giving error .
I am trying to setup a variable in VB, which will execute a shell command (autostatus.exe) with a parameter (-j JobName), and later display the output of the said variable. The code thus far is...
Dim JobName Dim JobStatus JobName = "asysr11_set_global_var_2day" JobStatus = ShellExecute("autostatus.exe", -j, JobName)
What is the easiest way to achieve this? Currently, the above code returns error message "line:4, Type mismatch: 'ShellExecute', code: 800A000D"
I'm rewriting a small application and I'm working on moving the data access logic from the form to a separate class. All was working will when I had all the code in the form. Lets say I had code similar to this in my form:
I would like to create a console program in VB.net that would allow parameters. What i would like to do is in the code below add parameters so the webpart page can be created from the Run menu. e.g. C:.......MyProgram.exe "Design" --This would then create the Design webpart page.
I tried looking at the internet but was not very successfull.
Module Main Public Sub Main(ByVal args As String()) Dim prj As String
What I would like to do is have one button be able to call any number of other sub routines when needed. In other words...the app is running and I need it to stop so the user can either read information presented...or make choices...then click the CONTINUE button to pick up where the app left off. However, I need this to happen many times across several forms and modules.
I know I can use a MessageBox and get the same effect..
Currently working on a web-service with Oracle10g as back-end. Here is my problem.
1. The table I need to populate has 100 columns. I have no control over the design of the table.
2. I wanted to use the "deriveparameters" method of OracleCommandBuilder, but found out that this is "costly" in terms of performance. What I initially planned to do was to derive the parameters from an open connection, close the connection, then maybe cache the parameters obtained but I don't know if this is possible.
I am unsure how big of a hit the performance will get if I continue using the "deriveparameters" method WITHOUT caching the parameters driven. The environment is as follows
-intranet -around 2000 users -users spread out in different parts of the country
I am not familiar where they will put the web pages of the application, the web service and the database. I don't know if they'll be putting it in different servers or on one server, but that's something we cannot control too, that's why I am looking for the best approach.
I just don't want to hard-code all that parameters and if, for instance, we need to change some properties/parameters, it will be a pain to maintain the code. It would be nice if someone here can point a way to automate the whole thing w/o the performance of the system taking a hit.
I've got a program where the insert/update SQL was created with the values coded directly into the SQL string. I've changed this to use the Command's Parameters.AddWithValue method and all worked well. I'm now in the process of separating the data access code out into it's own class. I've got the Select code working using a DataSet in the form that I pass ByRef to my data class so it can populate or refresh it. My sticking point is in how to pass the parameters for the Insert/Update commands to the class since from the form I no longer have access to a Command object. Do I need to make the Command object in the data access class available to the form?
I am trying to execute a command line EXE (busobj.exe) with required parameters through VB.Net. Because of unknown reason the report is not being generated. Here's the commandline:
have been trying to research the net on the subject of "how to set a folder view utilizing a VB.form button" but I haven't been able to find what I need to solve my problem.Goal:- Click a button on my form.- It opens a folder.- As it opens the folder the view of that folder it opens is set to "details" and the folder is "maximized"
For example if I have a function call like below Function callingMe() Exit Function
And my Function call is like below SomeObj.callingMe('1','2','3','4','5') // Variable number of arguments Inside callingMe() function, I want to know arguments passed i.e 1,2,3,4,5 and the Object i.e SomeObj in above case.
I am in great problem regarding adding new parameter in parametercollection. the code is below [code]but here a erro given that is "Variable osqlParameters is used before it has been assigned a value, a null reference exception could result at run time"..
I have an object, called 'PERSON' This person object has a title, firstName & Surname property as well as many other which are at the moment irrelevant. It also has a read only property called Fullname which concatenates the two or three parameters mentioned above depending on an optional parameter 'withTitles' passed over when you call PERSON.FULLNAME
PERSON.FULLNAME(true) <- Will add titles if there are any
PERSON.FULLNAME(false) <- Will give the name without the title
Public ReadOnly Property FullName(Optional ByVal withTitle As Boolean = False) As String
[Code]...
I get an error: PERSON does not contain a property of 'FullName'. If I change this to any other property that does not take a parameter it works as expected. Now I'm guessing that the binding procedure can't handle optional or mandatory parameters for object properties, is this right? Is there a better way to do it? I thought about looping through the collection to add them manually but that kinda defeats the object of DataBinding!
I'm currently working with a client's VB.Net code, which was developed for them by a small development shop a few years ago and which they purchased and have been maintaining and uprgrading since. This client's primary developer is out on indefinite (likely permanent) medical leave and I'm now filling in until they bring in a full timer (as I'm a contractor here). My current task is to add some functionality to a the VB.Net code they purchased. I'm finding practices and techniques in the code that absolutely baffle me and can't make the code do what I want. I'm starting to wonder if it's me and was hoping to get some thoughts on the code I've encountered.
For example: Setting a variable to accept the result of a function by calling the function with many parameters, clearing the parameters in the function, setting them to some value, calling another function with those new values, then never using the values returned by the functions. I'll add a code snippet in the first comment since this is already getting long.
