Sql - External Database Path As Parameter For Parametrized Query To Access
Jun 10, 2011
I'm writing small VB.Net app which should build reports based on data gathered from some external MDB-files (Access 2007). It was planned that this app will use parametrized SQL queries to collect data. One of the parameters for these queries is path to the external MDB-file.
Here goes sample code:
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" _
& "Data Source=C:TempTemp.mdb;")
conn.Open()
[Code]....

Looks simple but doesn't works. After launch my app throws following exception - System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Disk or network error.
Have spent a whole day to make it work with no success. What have I done wrong?

I 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.
Partial code :
Dim
con As
New OleDb.OleDbConnection[code]....

I have a form showing a datagrid that is filled with info from an Access database table. The table only has 3 fields: two of them are string type and the third one is boolean. The first String type field is also the primary key (this field is called "clave"). This datagrid is supposed to let the user select one of the rows and then click on a button to delete that row. I'm trying to do that with the following code:

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'm using Vb2005 to hit a SQL server. i have a pretty complicated query that hits identically structured databases on the server. I was looking into parameterizing the FROM clause but cant seem to do it.[code]Depending on the users needs I will hit the 'DriverDb' or the 'MaintDb' or 'DispDb' databases. the SQL string is actually much more complicated than that with references to the db in about 5 places so wanted to simplify it so that i could just replace with a parameter.

I have this code to retrieve a record to fill out a tooltip when the user's mouse enters a cell of a datagridview.
Dim dacmt As OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Dim con As OleDbConnection
Dim sql As String
[Code]....
This takes way too long for the tooltip to display. So, I created a query in the Access database that takes a parameter of the first field for the record you want.
How do I connect to just the query and send the parameter to it?
I am thinking this might be a quicker way to get the data for the tooltip. But then again, maybe not.

The data was being read from a Gridview which had the html encoding. The solution was the following...
Dim Sht_Text As String = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(row.Cells.Item(0).Text)
I am trying to prevent from having to escape apostrophes and other special characters in my string variables by using a parameterized query with an OleDbConnection. I have all of the parameters in the same order, the insert is working, it just does not maintain the characters. I keep getting those pesky html codes. I am trying to insert into an Access db from a web pages. As I mentioned, its working, just not the special characters.
Here's the code:
Dim pConn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection pConn = New OleDbConnection(cb.ConnectionString)
Dim SqlString As String = "INSERT INTO Strings (Mlt_String_ID, Lng_ID, Strg_Name, Sht_Text, Lng_Text, Alt_Text) Values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)"
[code]....
jp and en records already existed, the insert of fr record pushes the html codes for the small circle which represents the degree symbol. Happens for all other special characters as well.

I have created an application in which I have to make a report with ReportViewver from Microsoft.Everything ok until now. I have created the report and for this report I have created a dataset. This dataset contains data for every month in every year from 2010 to 2015. With this dataset I am populating a graphic but my problem is that I want to select the year and create graphic for one year.I do not know how to insert a parameter in the dataset. In sql is very easy by in Access is different and if I try to put something like ...' where year_column=@year_parameter' I receive an error.

Am working a vb.net 2008 project using ms access database 2007 and i successfuly finished it. i published the project and burnt it with cd. my database path in vb.net was located c:Deploydatabase.accdb.
so i installed the program in to another 2 networking PCs. when i run them and put the database path c:Deploydatabase.accdb in every computer, its working. but the problem is that:
i need the database to be accessed by server or my machine for instance where every other networking computers are able to access my database in this location of my machine (my be as defualt) without not putting it to their pcs.
This enables me to see what every machines users can add information to the program.
for example, i have got 10 computers networked each other (i.e comp1, comp2, comp3, comp4, comp5, comp6, comp7, comp8, comp9, comp10). i have installed the program in every computers so when/if comp1 adds/edits informations to the program, then all other computers are capable of receiving this information which means comp4 can see what comp1 has entered in the program.

I created a Query in a database in Access. I want to attach it to a DataGridView in VB2010. I then went to VB and connected to a Database. Then I dragged a DataGridView onto the form. Up came a pop-up menu. I Clicked on Choose Datasource, Add a DataSource,clicked on all the next buttons, selected Tables and Views checkboxes and clicked finish.In the next view up pops a menu that lists my Database and it's tables, but not the created Query. The Query does exist in the Database and I am accessing the correct version.

I have an application that uses an *.accdb file as the back-end database. Connecting to and retrieving data from the access file is not an issue and is working quite well. However, as a precaution, I have the application first check to make sure the database file exists in the application's folder while it loads up. As a convenience, if the database file is not found, then the application creates a new (structured, yet empty) database. The creation of the actual *.accdb file and the creation of the tables is complete and is also working well.

Start("Program.exe")
This does not work
Nor thisSystem.Diagnostics.Process.Start("Program.exe")
Only this works...but I can't use the Drive path..cannot hardcode it.
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:Program FilesX-ProgramProgram.exe")
So how do I start an outside Exe file from within vb net without hardcoding the path.

I guess this one is pretty basic, yet i have not been able to figure out.So here's the deal, my application uses an external exe to generate some txt files that the application needs for a use case. Since hard coding the path of such exe would be hideously wrong in so many aspects i would like to include a little configuration option for the user, so he can specify the path of the external exe for the application to be used.I also would like to have something like that for the path of the Database I'm actually using.

I have a program in which I want to have the user enter two percentages and display the data matching the criteria on a new form. The query would be:
Select *
From Corrosion
Where corrpct1 >= {column in database} OR
corrpct2 >= {column in database}
The way I currently have it written is to display only one row of data. I need to display any number of rows that meet this criteria. My current code is:
Private Sub btnDetails_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDetails.Click
Dim form As New frmDetails()
Me.Hide()
[code]....
1. How can I do my query to incorporate the user entered criteria (in the where statement)?
2. How can I display ALL of the data instead of just one line?

I'm new to VB.NET. I'm trying very hard to not go screaming back to VB6...... I have a Query stored in an Access2000 database called 'build_VNMON'. (Does that make it a Stored Procedure ?) It uses multiple tables and multiple Union Statements to arrive at the desired results. It may not need to be as convoluted as it is, but I inherited it, and it works. What I really need is to output one column of the build_VNMON result to a text file, so I'm trying to use an OleDbDataReader.
