I am using VS2010/VB.NET/MS Access 2007 I had added a database from ms access to the vb.net application (strongly typed)that table contains an autonumber field.I made a button to add new row and another one to save the row the problem is that I want to get the last autonumber from the database so that I can save the row.
View 1 RepliesI am current upgrading some of the functions on an inventory system. Current system accepts manual data input from the user and stores them in a SQL database.One of the inputs is control number which is a primary key in one of our table so it needs to be unique. Since it is manually entered into the system, we have to keep track of all of control numbers so there is no redundant control number which is difficult since we have hundreds of items with unique control number that are entered into the system everyday.Yes, it is waste of time.So I want our newly upgraded system to have a function where the control number is automatically generated so the control numbers are controled by the system. I know there something similar in MS Access 2007 but I cant seem to find it on Visual Studio. [code]

I am trying to write a Project to keep track of my favorite sports teams and scores and store and retrieve the data from a database. I am using vb.net and accdb files. I am able to connect to the tables( 3 tables Players'Keep track of individual stats',OpposingTeams'Keep track of who my team played',Games'matches between the two teams') and Visual studio made it easy to display the teams in comboboxes but this is as far as i can get.
I am wondering how to have a textbox query the Games table and "insert a record into the table, thus creating a primary key and returning the primary key to visual studio and display it in the texbox"

What is the best way to provide strongly typed access to the session object? I am planning on turning on Option Strict, which is causing the compiler to complain about my lazy programming technique of directly accessing the session object:
Dim blah As Integer = Session("Blah")
My initial thought is to create a class that wraps the session and provides strongly typed properties for the information stored in the session. However, I cannot decide if the class should be a singleton, or instantiated on every use, or where the code should reside (i.e. within the web project or within a class library).
I'm leaning towards a singleton in my class library, but I don't know if that is the best solution, or if I am missing any other possibilities.
Proposed Solution:
Public Class SessionAccess
Public Shared Property Blah(ByVal session As HttpSessionState) As Integer
Get

I've been googling to find a guide on how to access a database with visual studio.I cant find anything complete or up to date. I should point out that I dont have a great deal of experience with SQL.I'm not really 100% sure where to start. Most of the guides I've found tend to assume your accessing an existing SQL database and I need to set one up from scratch. I'm not sure if I'm even setting SQL server up correctly. point me in the right direction on where to get started. A good, up to date tutorial would be great.
For my purposes the SQL database will only be written to from the local machine but there will also be another machine writing to this database.I'm currently using Visual basic Express 2010 and SQL Server Express 2008 R2, mostly because they are the most recent when I googled it.
I'm trying to make a program that will keep track of where and who has borrowed a laptop from our department. I've made the access database and connected it to VB - however i am not sure of what code will need to be put in place
View 1 RepliesI have an Access Database, which I connect to using the Microsoft .Jet OleDB provider in VB from Visual Studio 2008.For some reason, whenever I make any change to the code (so that the project builds again), the data in the database completely disappears. I can only assume this means it's remaking the database every time. Note that it does this every time it builds, not just when I connect to it in the code.In my project, this is the database I connect to with the connection string, but there's also another duplicate of the same database in my Debug directory that changes to match the first database every time.The problem only started when I remade the access file to move some columns around and then reconnected through VS a couple of weeks ago.

I have a class assignment and I am having some difficulty with an Access 2010 database and OLE objects in the database. I have the database imported into the project and I am able to view the records from the database that I have in labels and combo boxes.
I used the database DataSoure wizard to create my connection string and import the Access database. In the DataSouce window I set the DataSet for the "Flag" column that contains my pictures to use a picture box object type and added the data bound object to my form.
When I run the application all the field from the database show as expected however, the picture box object does not display the images from the database. When I check the picture box object in the designer the properties window shows that the image source is bound to my database with the little database icon and the data bindings are all correct.
I'm using an MS Access database which has password (database password, not a workgroup or smth). I'm using 13 characters - with no special signs- only letters.

I would like to access to a SQL Server Database from my Visual Studio project.
I have SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed on my PC and I have a database with some tables.
In Visual Studio, I open the Database Explorer and I try to create a database connection.
The Add connection dialog box proposes to enter a database *file name* but I cannot select a database *server* and a database *name*.
Perhaps, is it a restriction because it is a free version ?
Within Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition, I can select a database *server* and a database *name* !
check the problem inside my code?

HOW TO update and query and erase in database on visual studio using officce access
View 3 RepliesIs it possible to import a query from Access 2003 into Visual studio 2010 (language used vb.net).
I created the queries originally for a project, then when I imported the database to visual studio I can only use the tables that i created. I have started looking at the coding to re-do these, but if I can import them would it be quicker?
I have a program designed in VB.net for a wafer probing system. The software has 3 main components that come standard and three that are options. When a customer decides not to have the three options they are disabled but still in the program. If at some point they decide to buy the options, one of our technicians would have to go there and be able to access the program with an administrative account to enabled the components.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what the easiest way to accomplish this?

Visual Basic Project - Student Check In Form using an Access database backend This form needs to draw information from an Access database containg tables for STUDENT, INSTRUCTOR, and SECTION. These all need to have primary keys and ids. When (the user) clicks on the drop down box that displays all the sections:
{Table Tennis 1, Table Tennis 2, Table Tennis 3, Billiards 1, Billiards 2, Billiards 3}This should populate the listbox or datagrid from the STUDENT table with the Students that have the same SECTIONID as the SECTION selected in the drop down menu above.
After the Student list has been populated (the user) clicks on a student name in the listbox/datagrid and this inserts that student into the CHECKEDIN table that has a datagrid/listbox associated with it.
This is a great project to practice connecting a database to Visual Studio 2008 .net and playing with the data that has been pulled in. You could use SQL instead of Access.
I'm starting to learn ASP.NET MVC and since I work in a VB.NET shop I'm converting an example from C#. I'm trying to implement a strongly typed view and the example I'm looking at shows the following:
<tr>
<td>Name:</td>
<td><%=Html.TextBox(x => x.Name)%></td>
</tr>
I've come up with the following in VB.NET:
<tr>
<td>Name:</td>
<td><%=Html.TextBox((Function(x As Contact) x.Name).ToString)%></td>
</tr>
Is this conversion correct? This seems really cumbersome (I know, I know, VB.NET is more cumbersome than C#, but I have no choice in the matter).
I'm looking for a the shortest/aseist way in VB.NET (or C# but using VB.NET at the moment) to get the string value of a method's name dynamically given the method call.For instance, I have a class like this:
Public Class Blah
Public Sub Foo()
End Sub
End Class
Now Foo is a strongly-typed cover for a dynamic setting and I have an event handler that will fire when the setting changes and return the string name of the setting that changed.
I'd like to be able to switch/select on this string and have a case based on the Foo() method. To do this I need to able to get the string name of the Foo method from the method call itself (i.e. somehow GetMethodName(blahInstance.Foo())).
