Use The Application.StartUp Property To Connect To The Database?
Jul 9, 2009
I added an Access database to my project and properties are: Build Action: Content Copy to Output Directory:Copy Always Full Path = directory where program code is.Within the program, I use the Application.StartUp property to connect to the database.My problem is that the program opens with the database in the root directory, but all changes are only made to the database in the bin/Debug folder. So the next time I run the program (through Visual Studio), it again opens up the database that didn't have the change smade to it.
I believe I want the database in the bin/debug folder because that's where the application is.I'm not an ADO.net maven. Is there anyone who can explain what i'm doing wrong and how I could correct it. If I run the program directly from the bin/debug folder, it works correctly.

The MSDN page for System.Windows.Application lists a property called StartupUri. However,this MSDN example uses Startup.Where is Startup defined? I couldn't find it in the MSDN documentation.

I'm working on an application in VB.NET that has to connect to a MySQL database and FTP. How secure is it if I used it in an application that I gave to other people. E.g. if I was to let other people use this application would they be able to find out the MySQL and FTP connection details through intercepting packets or something like that? If that's the case how can I work round this? Also, part of my application is an uploader for users to upload files, is FTP secure for that or are there better alternatives ways in doing that? My server is a Windows Server 08 if that makes any difference.

My objective is to connect my application to a database for the first time. I've never done this before so it's essentially a learning exercise. Within visual studio i've followed the "Connect to database" in the Tools tab and followed the connection wizard. My understanding is i need to connect to my local sql server (this may be incorrect) and i cant find it. I'm not sure how to even get started, what do i need to download in order to create a database on my laptop?

I have a vb.net application that will not connect to an oracle database on the PC that I publish the app too. It works fine under my pc both in design and when I publish it to myself. But it will not connect under the pc I publish it too. I do have oracle installed on the pc and have the connection setup exactly as I have on my own pc. I am sure it is a file path issue, or at least I believe it to be that.

I have the same problem as in this thread [URL].
I am connecting to a SQL database on a hosted server and everything is ok but if I publish the application then it fails to connect which is a bummer because then I can't debug it!
I have tried turning off windows firewall and that doesn't make any difference.

The application sits on a virtual environment and when I remote in and run the application, it connects to the remote database. However, when I remote in with a service account and double click the same .exe, it tries to connect to the local host database and ignores the app.config. The code is the same, only the login name I use is different. The login I use is part of the local admin group. Any ideas?

We have a VB.Net application which works fine in our tests in different Windows XP SP3 machines. However there is one machine in which is displaying this error:
Unable to connect to any of the specified MySQL hosts
Using the mysql command, we can successfully connect to the database. We already checked for any other application or firewall that could be blocking the connection but it seems fine. We also reinstalled the system (no errors during the installation) but the MySQL error message doesn't change.
The system settings are exactly the same as in the other computers. We are using "localhost" as server in the connection string. The "hosts" file has its default values (nothing strange in there).

I want A application that im going to make in VB.NET to load on Startup. I found a few topics on Windows Service for creating a start up service but then I read that you can't use it to load up a form. So there must be a way to have your program load on a computer when the user turns on or log's in at startup.Thing is, this application is going to be installed on many computers and people wont like having to remember to run it.

I've made some application in VB.NET 2005 and it works fine.I sent this application to the custemer and he is getting the following error at the application startup: "An unexpected error has occured. Would you like to restart the application?".
This guy is using Windows Vista. I've tested this application on several Vista machines and it works fine.
Do you have any idea how to debug it? Of course this guy doesn't have Visual Studio.

With my new ventures in VB, I wondered how I can allow the user to start the application on startup if they wish. Where when the checkbox for it is checked, it will launch on startup. And when its not checked, it is normally launched. (e.g. Windows Live Messenger)

I have created a small multithreaded application using VB.NET. There is no problem when the user manually runs this application. A problem exists when I added this application on startup. It hangs after I rebooted the system. The application is still running its thread but I can't see its GUI because its frozen. If I kill it on task manager and started again, the application works fine. What could be the possible reason/s why this application hangs when added on startup?
Imports System.Threading
Public Class USBLock
Public Event Lock()
[Code]....
or just a thought on this subject: the reason why the program hangs on startup is because the application is loaded while the .net framework service has not yet started.
