I Cannot Create A Brand New MDF (sql Server Database) With Visual Basic 2005
Apr 20, 2007
Hi everybody:
I go to Server Explorer, right click on Data Connection, input the server name (that is, my own computer), give a new name to the database to create, and then inevitably get the error window saying:
An error occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connectiong 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 conection to SQL Server)
So, how to open a connection to SQL server 2005? I looked in the msdn but found absolutely nothing.
Please help
Paolo

You know this sample ODS dll project:

I need to find a template like this in Visual Basic.
On this site I read through the xp_Encrypt project which was developed in VB. I did not see source code or a downloadable project file.
My searching on the internet hasn't yielded any practicle results, all examples are either how to use an extended stored procedure or are a MSVC++ project.
Anyone find VB related resources, anywhere? Books, TV, magazines????

Hi all, I have a var called sEP which contains a number. The problem I have is calling that var during an SQL query within Visual Basic. To test the update string I wrote the following query and simply told it to enter the text "Five Stars" on the row which contains the entry '1' in Episode Number column. It works fine. UPDATE JackBennySET Rating= 'Five Stars'
WHERE ([Episode Number]= '1') But how do I replace the '1' in the query with the var sEP (which will contain the actual number I want the query to run against)?I have tried various suggestions from sources including:UPDATE JackBenny SET Rating = 'Five Stars' WHERE [Episode Number] = '" + sEp + "'However, they all fail to update the database at all which makes me think the syntax is incorrect.Any help is very appreciated (I have been seeking help in various places for 2 days now) - I always send small paypal tips to people who help me on forums.

yiotis writes "Is there a way where you can programmatically (via visual basic) replicate two or more SQL Express databases located on multiple computers without the need of SQL Server 2005 acting as a publisher. From what i understand this is a limitation in SQL Express.
Right now i have SQL Express installed on 2 machines. I am able via vb to communicate with each database, read and write data between databases but cannot seem to figure out how to perform a simple replication.
Bottom line is, i need to be able to replicate via vb code 2 sql express databases with each other.

Let me get VERY specific.
This site has 40+ pages Using VWD 2008 (Studio 2008)
I have created in local IIS7 (129.0.0.2) http://cumc.lcl
Navigation.master, Web.config and Web.sitemap alll are structured
And all 40+ pages have been built.
NOW I added (using VWD) a sql server database named pagedata.mdf
With a table named: pages
and fields:
PageID - Primary Key (auto numbered)
pagename - nchar(30) exmp Default
hitcount - numeric(18,0)
createdate - nchar(15) exmp 04/18/2008
updated - nchar(15) similar to createdate
hitdate - nchar(15) similar to createdate
bottom of each page is to show 99999 visitors
and under that is to be Updated on mm/dd/yyyy
On pageload should accomplish the following increment the hitcount
field and save it and display it in HitLabel.text
Set UpdateLabel.text to updated field
Save the date the page was hit in hitdate field. (will only show when last hit)
The "tester.aspx" page now has:
<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/Navigation.master" Title="tester" %>
<script runat="server">
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
End Sub
</script>
<asp:Content ID="Content1" ContentPlaceHolderID="head" Runat="Server"></asp:Content>
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="ContentPlaceHolder1" Runat="Server">
<p align="center">This page is for various tests<br />and will NOT be site mapped.</p>
<p align="center"></p>
<p align="center">
Can this SqlDataSource be moved into Sub Page_load above?
How do I extract, process and save the Hit and Date data
for each individual page referenced by pagename field?
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStringsageConnect %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [main] WHERE ([pagename] = @pagename)">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:QueryStringParameter Name="pagename" QueryStringField="thispage"
Type="String" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
</p>
<p align="center">
<asp:Label ID="HitLabel" runat="server"></asp:Label>
Visitors<br />
Updated on <asp:Label ID="UpdateLabel" runat="server"></asp:Label>
</p>
</asp:Content>

When you work with Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition on windows XP, and if your application contains references to SQL-databases, I have discovered that it is important that all identities be logged off before you open the particular identity where you want to work on your Visual Basic project. I have earlier assumed that it was only possible to work with Visual Basic on one identity, the one where the version was registered.
This assumption was not quite correct. Actually, you may run Visual Basic applications with SQL-references on all identities on XP, provided that no other identities that are using the SQL-server are currently running.
For example, suppose you start your computer and log on the identity James. Then you switch identity, but you actually don't log off James. Then you log on the John identity. There you discover that it is impossible to create a new SQL-database in Visual Basic's Data-connections view. An error message appears. Why is that? It is because the SQL-server is busy on the James-identity. To solve this problem you want to log off the John identity, don't just switch. Then log on the James identity again, and log off properly. All identities should now be logged off. Now you may log on the John identity again, and it is now possible to create an SQL database.
Concerning deploying applications for XP. This issue is similar to the one I just described. You cannot run the installation-file successfully on one identity if the SQL-sever is busy on another identity. You want to log off all identities before logging on the identity where you want to install the application. Same thing when you want to run the deployed application.
Question. Does this limitation exist only in the express-editions of Visual Studio 2005 as a drag on free-ware, or is it prevalent in commercial editions as well? I would like to know a little more about this before purchasing the standard or professional edition of Visual Studio 2005.
Best Regards
Ziper

Hi,
I want to make a component library in Visual Basic.NET and connect to a remote Sql Server. When I create a new DataSet with the wizard, I can only connect to a .mdf file, but not to a Sql Server. With Visual Web Developer I can connect to a Sql server. What is the difference between these enviroments ? How can I do the same with Visual Basic.NET ?
Thanks in advance.

We recently installed SQL server 2005 on a couple of our servers. I use Visual Basic 6.0 at the moment and use ADO to connect to our various SQL servers.
I recently discovered on one of the new servers, that every time my programs runs, (every 4 minutes for 12 hours a day) the SQL process shown in task manager grows by 1-10 Megs.
The SQL process was at 776,912K when I rebooted this afternoon. It started back up at 106,120K.
I am not doing anything differently than I did when my programs were talking to SQL 2000, and I have never seen this memory leak issue. Is there something extra I need to do in SQL 2005 to finish/clear these SQL queries and not bog down SQL's memory?
An example of how I would connect and do a SQL transaction:
Dim cn as ADODB.Connection
Dim rs as ADODB.RecordSet
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
Set rs = New ADODB.Connection
cn.Open strConnect
select1 = "select firstName, lastName from clients"
rs.Open select1, cn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic
If rs.EOF = False Then
rs.AddNew
End If
rs!firstName = Trim(Text1(0))
rs!lastName = Trim(Text1(1))
rs.Update
rs.Close
cn.Close
At the end of the program's run I would:
Set cn = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing

I have an application written with Visual Basic Express 2008, which has a Sql Server Express Compact database incorporated into the application. I've been trying to follow the suggestions listed on several threads on how to backup up my database and have not gotten very far. The following code seems to be in most threads.
Dim dbstring = "Data Source=.SQLExpress;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=true;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|ImmuLogDataBase.sdf"
Dim sqlconn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection(dbstring)
sqlconn.Open()
When run, this code returns the following error at the sqlconn.Open() command.
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file G:ImmuLogImmuLoginDebugImmuLogDataBase.sdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
My solution is saved on a flash drive which I take between home and work. I'm hoping that that isn't the issue. I believe that Visual Basic loads the database when it starts and it is already open when this code is run. Is there a way to access this open database and run a backup procedure on it from within VB express 2008?
I'm new to this and self taught so explain everything in detail. Thanks for your help.

Code Snippet
Hi there,
I'm struggeling for more than a week now with this problem, without a finding the solution.
I have two databases, MS Access and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
Using a procedure in Visual Studio i would like to copy all the records from one table in MS Access into an existing table in SQL Server (the tables have the same name and the same layout)
I tried to prepare one Dataset to copy from Access into SQL Server but when i run the command 'DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella") nothing happens (not even an exeption has been raised), looking during debug, the DataSet seems filled though...
Please could anyone explain what's wrong and / or is there a more quicker way to copy data from a table to another?
Note i woul have as a final goal to get data from an AS400 database by ODBC, manage it, and put it on SQL Server for a 'data mining' scope (eliminating the use of MS Access, not suited for FE-BE).
the procedure goes like this;
' Create a connection to the MS Access Database
Dim connectionToAccess As New OleDbConnection(DBConnectionAccString)
strsql = "SELECT * FROM [TABELLA]"
connectionToAccess.Open()
Dim DaAccess As New OleDbDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToAccess)
Dim DsAccess As New DataSet("ACCESS")
DaAccess.FillSchema(DsAccess, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaAccess.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")
' Create a connection to the SQL Database
Dim connectionToSQL As New SqlConnection(DBConnectionSQLString)
connectionToSQL.Open()
Dim DaSQL As New SqlDataAdapter(strsql, connectionToSQL)
Dim DsSQL As New DataSet("SQL")
DaSQL.FillSchema(DsSQL, SchemaType.Source, "Tabella")
DaSQL.Fill(DsAccess, "Tabella")
DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")
Note I tried also the following, withou a result;
DsSQL = DsAccess.Copy
DaSQL.Update(DsSQL, "Tabella")
Please is there someone who could respond !!???

This problem only occurs after deployment, not when debugging. In the table I am having a problem with I have an ID field designated as the primary key with the identity increment set to 1 and the identity seed set to 1. There is no data in the table when deployed. I can add records to the datagridview control but when I try updating the dataset I get this error indicating that the ID field already has a value of 1 present. If I close the application and re-start it, the exception no longer occurrs when I update the dataset. I am including the code to update the tables incase something is wrong there. Any suggestions?
Private Sub UpdateMemberTable()
Me.Validate()
Me.TblMembersBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMembersTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMembers)
Me.TblMemberDependentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMemberDependentsTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMemberDependents)

Hello..
I've installed Visual Basic 2005 express edition & tried to connect to SQL Server 2005 express edition. I noticed that VB2005 Express Edition doesn't have any OLEDB provider for SQL Server. The only OLEDB Provider is for M.Access. Is this correct? if so, what should i do if i want to connect SQL Server 2005 express edition with VB2005 express edition by using OLEDB connection type?
I really appreciate any respond from you guys.. Thank's and waiting for the good news..
Best regards,
