Can Anyone Help Me With Connecting To A Database To Search?
Mar 22, 2006
I'm trying to make this piece of code work, I get all of it except how I get the data from the database, what I wish to do is. On page load I wish to take the value of a querystring in the page URL called ProductID and search a database to see if it exists in a specifical table and column, if it exists I wish to make a button not visible. the code I am using is:
// Get the data from the database, using the above value
DataTable data = ??
The datasource I want to connect to is SqlDataSource1, and the table I want to search is “Reviews�. I want to search in the column “ProductID� and search for the ProductID from the URL query string above.
// Did we find a product in the database?
if (data !=
null &&
data.Rows.count > 0)
{
// Code to display the product's information
// We found a product, so we need to hide a button
Button5.Visible =
false;
}
}

Please can somebody fill in the missing bit for me so i know how it should be, i've searched the quickstart tutorial on the menu above and I still don't understand it, as it doesn't show anything like what I want to do, and I have looked at numerous websites about the matter. If you don't have time that is okay, but If somebody does have the time to show me what I need, I would be very greatfull.
Can anyone tell me how to search an SQL database for a given key word in a textbox? I basically have a database that has a qualifications column and this column needs to be searched for the data given in the textbox. Which is the best method to search for the data? Is it a simple SQL query or an XML based search engine type? Can anyone give any suggestions regarding this? If XML is efficient then how do I use it to query my database, as I'm pretty new in XML based searching.Thanks
hi there, i am doing a school project and i need to have this search engine that will search the data that i have stored inside the database and display the results out can anyone help? thanks
In the VB 2005 Express, I can get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString of a Database "shcDB" in the Object Explorer of SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) by the following set of code: ///--CallshcSpAdoNetVB2005.vb--////
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub InsertNewFriend()
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure ....................................... etc. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////// If the Database "shcDB" and the Stored Procedure "sp_inertNewRecord" are in the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express, I plan to use "Data Source=local" in the following code statements to get the SqlConnection and ConnectionString: ......................... ........................
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=local;Initial Catalog=shcDB;Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
connection.Open()
Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sp_insertNewRecord", connection)
command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure ........................ etc.
Is the "Data Source=local" statement right for this case? If not, what is the right code statement for my case?
Hi all,I come up with a problem aleady discussed in some posts especially in the post http://forums.asp.net/t/1235761.aspx. but I got in not finally solved.The main problem is connecting to a database twice which causes errors. So I think this might be the right place to ask my questions. Here ist the problem in short:I'm using VWD on XP-Professional with SQL-Server Express and Reporting Services Express. All with Windwos Integrated Security and User Instance (SQLExpress). In my web-application I had for all Datasources the connect string:Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|mydatabase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True This works fine so far. I also have Reports designed with the Report designer using the same connection string. I can preview the reports and I deployd thre reports successfully. I want to call these report using a report viewer web control.Now the problem:when I call the remote remote report from my web-application, the database cannot be opened because an other process is using the database (see post mentioned above). It seems that this is a problem with attaching the database twice: from the sql-server and from the report-server.So I used now a new connection string without "attaching" the database (in vwd and in report designer):Data Source=.SQLExpress;Initial Catalog=C:inetpubwwwrootmyappAPP_DATAmydatabase;Integrated Security=True Now everything works...but ... only on my machine. On the production machine this does not work. I wonder anyway, why its working on my machine, because I never "attach" the database (there is no connection string with AttachDbFilename and I have not opend the developer and have not opened the sql management studio).On the production machine the concurrent (SQL-Server and Report-Server) connection to database does not work with either connection strings, no matter if i attach the database with sql server manager or not).This all drives me crazy for days now. All I want is to use SQL-server and Reporting- Services with its nice features and not repairing my tools. I thought I have a standard Installation, nothing special, but the standard obviously makes problems.Here finally my question:Does this environment ( web-application with remote reports) with Express edition cause normally no problems?Can I "attach" a database only once? How should I connect with my web application that uses the sql-server connections and also the report-server-connections (attaching twice does not work).What connection strings to use and when (AttachDbFilename or Initial Catalog).Are these problems specific to the Express Editions? I thank you in advance for any help Dieter
I am very new to web development using Microsoft Visual Studio. (my primary expertise is Framemaker 2003). I am currently going through your ASP.NET 2.0 videos and reproducing the lesson content on my development system. I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition. I also have Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Microsoft SQL Server 2000, Microsoft .NET Framework SDK v1.1 and Microsoft .NET Framework SDK v2.0. I seem to be having difficulties with the SQL interface because when I try to use the Property object from Lesson04, I get System.Web.HttpExceptioon {"Unable to connect to SQL Server database."}. When I subsequently tried to Add New Item - SQL Database from Lesson08, I get a Microsoft Visual Studio error box "Connections to SQL Server files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=49251" Any ideas? I know the videos are based on use of the Microsoft Visual Studio Express -- are there significant configuration differences between it and Microsoft Visual Studio Professional that would make these lessons incompatible?

I have an SQL database setup but i don't know how to connect to it to set up a table. I have a vague idea about connectionstrings and such. I have a server name, a database name, a user id and a password. I would like to set it up so i can just enter the SQL commands and create a table and enter data. But first I need to connect to the database. I
I am moving my site from a shared environment to a dedicated server and SQL is on the same box. How do I connect to my database if it's on the same box?
Please help me with the following problem because I am running around in circles.
I have this problem getting a forum online. Since it is a database related problem which I have been trying to solve at the ClubSite forum I am taking the liberty to come to this forum with this problem.
This is the story: I have this separate SQL database dotForum2004.mdf in App_data. After trial and error got it working locally.
But when I put it online at my webserver (On a Stand-alone PC at my jobsite) I get an application error.(From the Club Site application)
This is the connection key which works fine locally. Is there something obvious you can point me at?
For an assignment at school, I need to build an ASPX web page that looks up books in a database. This entails the use of a SQL database, and I am having issues trying to connect to the database.
here is a pic of the error I am getting:
I am using Visual WebDeveloper 2005 Express to do this in, and I can't find any options that pertain to the error above. I looked in the SQL configuration tools that I have installed, and I can't seem to find the correct options that I need.
Does anyone know how to resolve this? If you can provide direction on this, that would be great.
Hi. I'm totally new here, and I'm not an expert when it comes to SQL, so bear with me. This is my dilemma:
I use Access 2000 to connect to my Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database. Recently, our provider switched us from a shared server to a dedicated server. The site is up and running perfectly, but I can't connect to my database via Access anymore. Once I received the new location of the database, I ran odbcad32.exe and configured the database's DSN info where appropriate. I run the "Test Data Source..." function and the tests are seemingly successful. When I open my database using Access, I'm able to log in successfully, but when I click on any one of my linked tables, I get the following error:
Could not execute query; could not find linked table.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'NAMEOFDATABASE.NAMEOFTABLE'. (#208)
The support team at my provider are not exactly geniuses, so who knows if and when they'll be getting back to me. In the meantime, does anyone have a clue what might be causing this? Since the site is working perfectly, I assume the connection strings are okay and the database is perfectly intact (I even checked to see that the most recent entries were live), so what gives? If there's any more info I can provide, let me know. Thanks in advance.
Hi, I will post this on a c# forum as well but maybe someone has an answer here.
I want to connect to my database in a program i am coding with C#. I have 3 databases in my SQL server (DB1, DB2, DB3)(perhaps schemas is the word to use) all under a connection called TEST (as opposed to SQLEXPRESS.
My connection string in my code is as follows: string ConnectionString = "Data Source=.\TEST;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True;";
My app reports a valid connection is made. WooHoo. But, When i try to do a select statement eg: Select * from DB1.Customers I get the following error. System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Invalid object name 'DB1.Customers'
I have tried removing the DB1. part from the select statement and specifying Database = DB1 in my connection string but that doesnt work either.
i have to give connection string in .cs file as SQLConnection cn=new SQLConnection("")
i have to connect to local computer..please anyone provide me solution. datbase is northwind...and i m connected it with windows authentication.. please any one provide me answer....

I have a SQL database called "WebDesk.mdf" and I have a ASP.Net web application. I can't figure out the connection string I need to connect to this database. It doesn't matter if I connect to it as a file, or otherwise.

I am new to .net and I am using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express with SQL Server 2005 Express. What I would like to do is connect to my SQL database (which resides in the app_data folder) and open a table and pull out a field and place it in either a textbox or label on the page. No editing or deleting. Just simple one field binding. By the way, I can do this with all the cool built-in tools of VWD, but I want to know how to do it all by hand. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out.
Hi I am new at this. I have a little program written in C# in asp.net. The program basically accesses a database and stores new records. The database is supposedly already attached to MSDE so I am able to see the tables of the database inside asp.net. I can click on the individual slots of the table and modify the datas manually. However, I want to connect to the database from my C# program and be able to input data into the database via the website that the C# program produces. After I type in the data into the website and click the submit button on the website, I get an error page that says this: Login failed for user 'sa' the line of code thats causing this error is: con = new SqlConnection("data source=(local)\NetSdk; initial catalog=Friends; user id=sa"); Why is it not able to connect to the database?
I am using SQL Server 2000 database in my VB.Net project. My VB.net application is installed one two machines in different cities i.e. there are two separate databases. First machine's IP address is say 202.33.44.55 and other machine IP address is say 203.33.55.66. Now I want to use each others databases i.e. I want to set their database group. So that in my VB.Net's application which is installed on 202.33.44.55 I could see data of the 203.33.55.66 by just changing the connection string
I am doing one of the Microsoft virtual labs "Creating ASP.NET Web Applications with C# - Part 2" using Visual Web Developer Express.

When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)".This is on the local machine that I am executing the code. public void BindGrid(string sortfield) { //Create DataAdapter to fetch data from Prodcuts table SqlDataAdapter myCommand = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from Products", myConnection); //Create dataset and fill it with Product data DataSet ds = new DataSet(); myCommand.Fill(ds, "Products"); //Bind Product data to Datagrid DataView Source = ds.Tables["Products"].DefaultView; Source.Sort = sortfield; dgProducts.DataSource = Source; dgProducts.DataBind(); } It stops on the line "myCommand.Fill(ds, "Products"); and points out the error mentioned earlier. I am not sure what to do...any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance, and I apologize as well if I have not pointed out enough information.

Hello, Iam a new developer to asp.net, I have been trying to connect a database to a asp.net page but many times i failed. actually i dont want to connect just directly by dragging and dropping controls rather i wanted to bind controls like textboxes and comboboxes but at first i think i have to make querystrings to and sqlconnection to connect to the database. I mean i have to manually code all these items to get my pages connected. but most of the time i face the bug which is: Server Error in '/WebSite2' Application.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

This is insde a try and the catch is another label, 'cannot connect to database'.Running on my local PC all is fine, transferred SP and table to hosting server, along with web.comfig set to the host servername, uid, password and database. On the host server all errors messages are returned. I have created a connection in my VS7 database manager to the remote host and the same happens after amending my connection string to run on the remote server.It clearly is the connection string, I am using the <appsettings> add Key to connect as I thought it would mean no change of coding in my pages when moving from Dev PC to Server. I have checked the hosting server setup and used the server name associated with the database (mssql3.securedc.com) , checked uid, password and database settings. Is there something I have missed like permissions, specific security settings on the host server (I have to go through a third party as the hosting is done through a friend of my client)?? Many thanksEarle
