Hello
I use vs2008 and i try to make a simple windows program with add records to a database. The problem is the database don't store the values that i add. When i run my program (in design mode) everythynf looks fine, but if i close vs2008 and restart it again the database is empty.
Why?
Thank you
I try to insert VB.NET boolean true values into a SQL2000 table thru a stored procedure. While varchar fields of the table are correctly filled, I'm surprised to find the bit fields all stay 0 after every single insert. This makes me wonder if VB.NET boolean variables can be passed to sp bit parameters and inserted into a SQL2000 table. Or did I miss something? Please advise. Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to write a Windows service that watches a database for uploaded files to import. When a new file is found, the corresponding SSIS package is run from the file system with variables passed through. I started development as a Windows app and copied the functionality to a service.
The app runs fine. The service does not. I get a "Failure" each time a package is executed. Everything is identical behind the scenes with the obvious exceptions that OnStart and OnStop handlers are buttons in the app. I added a script task at the beginning of one of the SSIS packages to notify me that it is even running at all. It doesn't even hit that initial task.
Again, the app will run all packages just fine. The data is imported and the results return as "Success."
The following is the code executing the package. Any help is appreciated. I've been banging my head on this one for a few days now. (Is there a tag to format a code sample?)
Dim pkgLocation As String
Dim pkg As New Package
Dim app As New Application
Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
pkgLocation = sPackageFolder & PackageName & ".dtsx"
pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLocation, Nothing)
Dim vars As Variables = pkg.Variables
vars("ImportId").Value = ImportId
vars("ProductionServer").Value = ProductionServer
vars("ProductionDatabase").Value = ProductionDatabase
vars("SourceFileName").Value = FileName
vars("SourceFilePath").Value = FilePath
pkgResults = pkg.Execute()
Hi,
I have a table in my database with several car types, and the order I want for that table is:
Car_typeA_1
Car_typeA_2
Car_typeA_3
Car_typeA_4
Other_Cars_typeA
Car_typeB_1
Car_typeB_2
Car_typeB_3
Other_Cars_typeB
Car_typeC_1
Car_typeC_2
Car_typeC_3
Car_typeC_4
Car_typeC_5
Other_Cars_typeC
...
This table is more or less always the same, but from time to time I want to add a new car type, for instance; Car_typeA_5, but this new type must be located under the last register, in the example under ‘Other_Cars_typeC’. So, now the order is wrong, and when I want to display these car types to a web form object, the items will appear wrong ordered.
My question is: To order the values(items) correctly, Where I have to do it? In the web page (ASP.NET) code behind, or somewhere in SQL Server (for example in the Stored Procedure that passes the value to the application)? Or maybe in the same database table..?
Thank you,
Cesar
Hi,I want create stand alone application from DTS package. I remember Idid one time ago, I couldnt recall how I did it.Thanks.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI successfully upsized an Access database to SQL Server Express so that I have an Access frontend and a SQL Server Express backend. People started using this on an intranet, but right away they started complaining that sometimes their data wasn't saved. For example, they might have entered 8 records but when they went back to look at them only 4 were actually saved in the database. Any idea why this might be, or how I could trace the errors and find out?

1. there is a text file named "Loan"
2. i must create a program using ASP.net wherein the text file can be imported in the system.
3. after importing, i must save the whole text file in a database.
my questions are:
1. what code can i do to open up a text file?
2. how can i save the text file into a database?
3. is there any way that i could import the file and view its content in my application?
4. after viewing, how can i save the text file as a text file in a database?

I am creating SSIS packages on the fly using C#.net. I need to save SSIS packages on a SQL Server using windows authentication. I have found a way to save the package using SQL authentication Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application .SaveToSqlServer(Package pkg,IDTSEvents evts,string serverName,string serverUserName,string serverPassword)
Can you give me a solution for saving SSIS packages using windows authentication, as it is a must in my project.
Hi,
I have an ASP.NET form that stores it's data in MSDE but I just added a multi-select ListBox to the form and I'm having a hard time coming up with a way of writing that data to the database. Should I write the values into a column on the same table where I store the rest of the data from the form (values separated by a comma) or shouild I create another table (one to many) and store the data there. I like the second option, but I'm not sure how to loop through each value and write it to the database table.
I grab the values for the selection as follow:
foreach (ListItem lstItem in lbAttendees.Items)
{
if (lstItem.Selected == true)
{
grpList.Add(lstItem.Value.ToString());
}
}
but I'm not sure on what to do next and could use some help.
Thanks

Hey all:
Right now I have a cursor that makes me want to puke. This is the last cursor in my current project and I want to replace it with a much faster set based operation.
Here is the problem. I have a table with say 1-3 million records. There are fields that get loaded in with date information. These fields are varchar because the date information could very well be mangled data that needs to be reviewed by a user. What I need is to go through these varchar fields and flag the values that cannot convert to smalldatetime.
I have another table that houses the primary key and the field of the record that cannot convert.
Essentially, I have a series of filters that run and flag using set based stored procedures. If there is a record that gets through that contains a value that cannot be converted, I have a cursor that steps through the data and attempts to convert the value. If it is able to be converted, then it continues on until it finds the value that is holding up the conversion.
I guess if I can run a query that will return all records that can convert for the field (or can't convert) I'd be all set. Any help here is appreciated.
--Thanks--
Hi,
using custom tasks. My properties got saved properly the first time the task is added to the workspace. After that, changing values in the CustomUI updates the properties, but the package shows, that It doesn't need to get saved. So my properties don't get changed in the package XML. Moving my custom task on the workspace after changing properties, let the package go into "save me" state and my propertiy values get saved to XML.
So now, Im searching for a method or property I have to call or set to show the package it needs to get saved after closing my CustomUI.
Any hint?
Thanks
PS: When I change the property value in the task properties grid (lower right). The package gets notified about the need to get saved.

I am working on a windows application (C#) that utilizes ODBC to acces paradox tables (works fine thought this would be the problem database) and a WinMobile database(.sdf) in order to sync table records. What I need to do is copy the .sdf file from the winmobile device then access it with this application to check for changed records on the PC and in the mobile database then copy it back to the mobile device via RAPI.
The program compiles fine but when I try to run the application I get this error. Unable to load DLL 'sqlceme30.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) .
I have already copied the System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll to my projects bin folder and then added a reference to it in the projects Reference dialog. These were also copied to the bin folder of the project
sqlceca30.dll

sqlcecompact30.dll
Provides the compact database functionality. Required if your application will use compaction.
sqlceer30[language].dll

Provides OLE DB connectivity to SQL Server Mobile databases. Required only if your application uses OLE DB to connect to the SQL Server Mobile database.
sqlceqp30.dll
The SQL Server Mobile Query Processor. Required for all SQL Server Mobile applications.
sqlcese30.dll
I also added using System.Data.SqlCE to the form and the dataset designer.cs
From this code in the dateset.Designer.cs file after the run is started the eroror occurs.
[System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCodeAttribute()]

if ((this._adapter == null)) {
this.InitAdapter(); Error on this line....
}
return this._adapter;

Hi
My application :
On PC : Access application + Access DB
On PocketPC : Embedded Visual Basic 3.0 application + PocketAccess DB
I synchronise my DBs through ActivSync.
It runs good before Windows Mobile 5.
My customers asked me for new PocketPC with this application, so I bought some new PocketPCs : but as I see, syncronisation with Access is no more supported.
So what are my solutions ?
My customer wait for there PocketPC, so I need a quick solution, I don't want to rewrite all my application now.
My application run before WM5, so now I don't want to have to pay for a Visual Studio .Net, some SQL Server, etc ....
Please, what are the solutions that won't cost me more than the time that have already lost with this new Windows Mobile 5 ?

Is there a way to control some of the windows application log settings from within the logging process of a package. Specifically the 'source' parameter which comes out as 'SQLISPackage' which i'd like to be the actual name of the package which wrote to the log, and similarly 'Category' which comes out as 'none' and I'd prefer to assign something more meaniful ?

Thanks in advance.
Hi there, i am building a mobile app using vs 2008, the app has about 8 - 12 forms that collect data.. i am thinking of
i am trying to decide how i want to save the temporary work data while the user fills the data collection forms.
when the user selects to create a new report, i will
create a new xml file...
as user moves from form to form, i will update the file
when the user has finished filling up all the data i will create a transaction and insert the data into the sql ce database and delete the file...
i will be using sql ce 3.5
i think it supports transactions
i think it also supports identity.... i am using sql management studio 2005 standalone , so i cannot visually modify the 3.5 sdf.,..,. is there a tool for 2008 that will let me visually modify the table(s)? i dont want to use the 2008 feb community edition...
is there a better way to do this? should i skip the xml and go directly into sql ce insert (for the first record creation) and updates? i think this will be a performance killer on a win mob devilce (5.0)
p.s. i cannot store data in a class, and then commit the class to the transaction because if the application crashes i will loose class data, so xml file will be needed.,
suggestions?
Hi there,
I have a question which I put the company that host my website but I didnt get a conclusive answer. Maybe someone here will be able to advise or help me with my situation.
I want to build a database that I will run on my local server and the front end of this will be run using a windows application. I have a website which I run the database on the remote server. What I would like to do is to be able to synchronize certain tables between the two databases (such as updating products table, or orders table). I am using sql server 2005 and I am using the sql server management studio to access my database on the remote server. I did notice there is a synchronzie button. I also came across some 3rd party tools. Not sure if that is the way to go.
If anyone as done this before or can give me any suggestions, I would be delighted.
Thanks

We have always used sql servwer login to the servers for all our applications for out intranet apps
And we use windows auth to do development
So when we do that we logon to wuindows, and then just connect, with no password required
But how does an application "logon" to connect to a database
Is it just in the connection string just like sql server auth
or is it different?
Hi,
I'm writing a windows application using VB.NET 2005 that must connect to Pocket PC via ActiveSync to read data from SQL Server CE. This is my code:

cnn.Open()
But I get the following error:
The path is not valid. Check the directory for the database. [ Path = Mobile DeviceStorage CardProgram FilesMyAppMobileDB1.sdf ]
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm a database newbie, trying to decide whether to create an SQL Server or Windows Application project that uses SQL Server 2005 Express. As I understand it, the advantage of an SQL Server project is that the app deploys somehow as part of the database. If that's the case, how would I handle the scenario where the database has been updating at customer site and I need to install just a new release of the software? Would I be better of creating a Windows Application project and connecting to the database explicitly? Thank you.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've read that microsoft.applicationblocks.data for .net v2 can't be deployed to a mobile app, and my experience bears that out. So I 'm wondering if there are application blocks for windows mobile 5 that would know how to both talk to sql server mobile and sql server 2005. I see OpenNetCF has a port but as far as I can tell, they only address sql server mobile and not talking to a sql server 2005 remote database. I can use the OpenNetCF version for my sql server mobile requirements, but I'm hoping there is an encapsulation of sqlclient calls for communication with my server db.

Hi everyone,
Every time that my application throws an .DTSX file I don't know who or what is writing on eventviewer.application if failed or successful.
Execute method implements a customized class which implements IDTEVENTS but I promise that in any place of my code I'm writing that information.
app.execute(nothing,... MYEVENTS)
Public Class MYEVENTS
Implements IDTEVENTS
..
..
..
..
All the methods are declared although empty but OnQueryCancel which is customized.
How to disable this behaviour?
I'm concerned for that because of we could launch (when it's gonna in live) 300 or 400 packages on-daily basis!!!
Thanks in advance and regards,
I have a windows based software application that connects remotely to a sql server 2005 and calls stored procedures. There is someone that I work with that is cautioning the company strongly that this is a bad thing to do in terms of security. Isn't this a very common thing to do? Assuming that the SQL Server installation is setup appropriately. Is this a bad practice?

Hello!
I've been creating a vb.net 2005 windows form application using Everywhere and it has been going pretty well. However, I haven't had much luck finding any help on how to deploy my Everywhere database file(s) and Everywhere itself. To install redistribute Everywhere, can I just add the the 8 .dlls found in the Everywhere directory into my VS setup project? Also, what database file(s) do I need to deploy in my windows setup?
Thanks!
Hi all,
I think I can do this, just want to check
Can I have an sql server database (mdf file) on a server and allow windows applications at different site manipulate the database.
As far as I am concerned the only thing that needs to be configued is the connection string..is this correct.
[i would rather use windows applications rather than asp pages]
If I can, the best way to manipulate the database is to use stored procedures. How would I do the following to create and execute the following proposed procedure:
Insert data into a table
Update another table as a result
Execute the store procedure on a form to execute these two statements
Thanks in advance

from with in an application using the report view can you puase a report that is taking a long time to complete and then at a latter date resume where you paused the report.

I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students.
Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server.
The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string)
From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also,
1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project.
Thanks.
I want to build a windows application in Visual Studio 2005 that grabs some data from a SQL DB and displays it in a gridview. That is easy and I already have it done, but I also want to know how to show this data in real-time. For example: right now we have a application that pulls some login information for all the users and displays their phone extension, their name, and their status. They can change their status by clicking on some radios below the datagrid and on change it updates the data and then posts back. However, I dont know how the guy who did it made it so that these local changes are automatically shown on everyone elses computers around the office. In other words, they are shown the live data as it changes, without having to refresh it or anything. How would I go about doing this or does anyone have any places/resources that could help me accomplish this task. Thanks.
Oh and the guy who wrote this is no longer working here and he deleted the source code so i cant look at it.
