This is such a common task, that I doubt you'd have any trouble searching google for articles on it.

VB6, VB.NET (1.0 or 2.0)?
In any case the official documentation on CD (or MSDN on-line) has plenty of examples and ready to use code about that.

I am looking to implement a text editor functionality Using VB.NET in ASP.NET that allows for the following:
1. If any text or number is changed, it gets "striked Out" but never over written ever.
2. If anything is deleted, it gets striked out as well.
I can use RTF editor (example R.A.D editor from Telerik)to let user enter information for the first time. Next time when they change or deleted, I need to implement the strike out feature.
Any ideas, and suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Basically want you want to do is, during postback, work out what has changed, and then send it back with a strikeout through the old document. So, the main thing you need is to write code to difference the document you sent to the user, and the document they submitted back.

I'm trying to decide the best way to setup my DataTables and DataAdapters.
Which way is the best way?
1. Use the DataAdapter wizard and have separate DataTables and DataAdapters for each form in the project.
2. Define public DataTables and DataAdapters in a module so that these objects are available to all forms.
Thanks for any input.

This way is crap. I take it this means you're not even implimenting a middle tier ?

Yes, what should happen is that you have a seperate module that handles data access, and returns the required data to the middle tier. That way, your data layer is seperate from the rest of the app.
That Microsoft provides DataAdapters at all is a travesty, IMO. Assuming you're using a real database, you should write your database code as stored procedures, and your data layer should call those procs and return the result. Putting SQL generation in the hand of a wizard, and passing SQL statements like select and update to the data layer from the application layer is just crap, unless the apps your writing are just for fun, or at least will run on one machine with a local database. It's still not the right way to architect things tho.

Ok, Thanks for the advice.
I do think the DataAdapter wizards are great for the beginner.
Do you use DataAdapters in your middle tier? If not what do you use?

Got this web application that lets a user create a form which is written to an sql database. It contains various textboxes and dropdownlists etc. It creates the form no problem but when it comes to updating this form i do. First off the user searches for their form.
Once found they click update, which retrieves all the info stores this in a session and returns the appropriate text to the appropriate control eg. if conor was the name of the user in the database the application would set the text attribute of the username control to conor.
the user is able to modify these controls again and click on update. Here is the problem. once the update button is clicked no event take place so the updates are not being saved to the database.
If i get this sorted it's the end of my project so it will greatly appreciated if anyone can help me.

Is the button dynamically generated ? Have you defined an event for it ?

Ok, my situation is like this. I have two forms in my application (Form1 and Form2), and on each form, I have one button (button1). I put the following code in button1 for Form1.
"Dim frm2 as new Form2"
"frm2.show()"
and in Button1 of Form2
"Dim frm1 as new Form1"
"frm1.show()"
I noticed that if I clicked on these buttons a couple of times, multiple Form1 and Form2 gets created. Anyway to avoid this, like maybe when I click Form1 Button1, it closes the Form1 and opens Form2 and vice versa..?

I think u dont need to close form1 and open form2 and vice versa...
u can let 2 forms are opened concurrently.
below is just my suggestion:
- In each form, u have a variable (boolean), named as isActive to store the status of the other form (this will be initialized as false, that means form2 is not activating),
ie: when click form1 button1, the code should be as below:
"Dim frm2 as new Form2"
"if isActive then " //form2 is being actived
" frm2.active()"
"else " //form2 has not been showed yet
"isActive = true"
"frm2.show()"
and certainlly, before form2 is closed, u need to set isActive = false in form1
and do the same thing for form2

I'm not sure if I got it correctly.....
if you want to have a single form1 and form2 then the solution is not to re-declare them inside the procedure but just once at the beginning of the code. Thay way you are going to recall always the same one without creating a new instance.
|
|
|
|
|
How do you go about doing that? Any help that you can offer will be greatly appreciated... Thanz

My point is to move the declaration outside the form.
A way of accomplishing it could be the following.
Create a module with a Sub Main (it has to be the starting sub of the project
Module xyz
public F1 as new Form1
public F2 as new Form2
public sub Main
F1.Show
while F1 is not nothing
application.doevents()
wend
end sub
and then for each form/button event
private sub Button1_Click(..)
F1.Hide (F2.Hide in the other form)
F2.Show (F1.Show in the other form)
end sub
Remember to unload Form1 to end the application
|
|
|
|
|
what command do you use to unload a form?
|
|
|
|
|
Just issue the close method over the form. It'll be closed (passing through the closing and close events) and then destroyed.

Hello again friends!!
I've a fairly simple problem w/c im unfortunately stuck at. Well, i'v 2 forms. form1 is the main page which shows some companies' names as a link. form2 is the page which allows you to edit, update and/or delete the given company. now here's my problem...everything works fine except for my date picker. Upon clicking my "setdate" button it shows the calendar and actualy sets the coresponding text box with the date you pick but when i try to save the form the date doesn't save at all. everything else including the company name, adress, tel number, etc is saved accordingly only the textbox with the date picked is not. Any ideas why not? here's my query on insert:
Public Function fInsert(ByVal strName As String, ByVal strID As Integer, ByVal strInbound As Integer, ByVal strOutbound As Integer, ByVal strDstart As String, ByVal strDend As String, ByVal strRemarks As String)
Try
strSQL = "Insert into Splits"
strSQL += " (SplitID, SplitName, Inbound,"
strSQL += " Outbound, DateStarted, DateEnded, Remarks)"
strSQL += " Values ('" & strID & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strName & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strInbound & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strOutbound & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strDstart & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strDend & "',"
strSQL += " '" & strRemarks & "')"
Dim cmdInsert As New OdbcCommand()
cmdInsert.CommandText = strSQL
cmdInsert.Connection = cnn
cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery()
Catch e As OdbcException
Throw e
End Try
Return True
End Function
Tanx so much!
Kampai!!!

hi,
i think you should use ToDate convetion like Format or sonthing which you normaly use for database i use Format statement...... otherwise change that StrDStrart to a datetime format and then try to save in database instead of string .....
