Hi
I have a combobox binded to a table in database.
Table is JobMaster in that there are 2 fields 1)JobCode 2)JobName
In the Combobox I show JobName as Display member and JobCode as Value Member.
When i make a new entry its easy to select the Jobname and JobCode is returned as selectedvalue.
But for editing i have the jobcode from the query, and i have to select the corresponding jobname...how can this be done?
Please Help

Make inner join to JobMaster table/query in your query.

Nope, that won't work. What you want is to make use of the HtmlTextWriter class. Find out more about it here[^]
Hope that helps.

Hi all,
I was wondering the other day how I could edit a standard toolstrip and have the change reflected globally (on any project). Looks like I succeeded... but I don't know how I did it ! OK, OK, lets say I am weird.
It is the DataNavigator I changed something in. The record count right part is of {0}. I am using VB Express 2005 English, but I live in Québec where we speek French. Some time ago, i changed of to be de. Today I realized that whatever program is running, it always shows de instead of of. Nice to me. But the thing is I don't know how I did it 
I must add that when one looks at the form in the Formx.[Design] window, it shows of {0}, and it shows the same in properties (Text). If I change the text property to say sur {0}, the program displays sur total, and if I then change it bakc to of {0}, the it reverts to displaying de total. 
Can someone help ?
Thanks

I stand under correction but it may be from the .resx resource file attached to your app. I assume that you have your regional settings set up for french-canadian and that your app has somehow picked up on that (you haven't done any localization/globalization to the app?).
Again, I say that I stand under correction and may be completely wrong.

True, my regional settings are set up for french-canadian. What bugs me is that every application is showing de instead of of, even those I downloaded from Mircosoft WEB Site yesterday.
I have not done anything in term of localization. My goal is to localize everything about the DataNavigator toolstrip (for example tooltips). If I can do it once for every application, then it's fine. For sure I have modified something somewhere, and it is spreading out. Just can't find where.

Hello
I'm working on a small application that uses an MS Access 2003 database with one table (tblEvents). In one section of the application, the user will fill out several fields and then click the "Submit" button. Within my Click event handler for btnSubmit, I use the following SQL query as my command text:
Dim MySQL As String = "INSERT INTO Guestbook " & _<br />
"(Planner, Location, Time, Date) VALUES " & _<br />
"('" & txtHistoryPlanner.Text & "','" & txtHistoryLocation.Text & "','" _<br />
& txtHistoryTime.Text & "','" & txtHistoryDate.Text & "')"
I took that string directly from a tutorial on the web strictly about updated rows and querying for rows out of a 2003 Access database and I'm 100% flustered because my app gives me an error stating that there is a syntax error with my INSERT INTO query.
If you know what's going on, please enlighten me! Thank you for your time.

Then who ever posted it should be shot! Apart from anything else it suffers from a severe susceptability from a SQL Injection Attack. Here's an article that provides a description of what a SQL Injection Attack is, how to spot code that is susceptable and what you can do to make the code safer[^]
You should use a parameterised query instead
Your string becomes:
"INSERT INFO Guestbook (Planner, Location, Time, Date) VALUES(?,?,?,?)"
And you can add the parameters like this:
myCommand.Parameters.Add("", txtHistoryPlanner.Text) ' etc.
Probably what is giving you an error is if one of the text boxes contains something that the SQL parser is misinterpreting. For example, if some piece of text contains an apostrophe the SQL parser will interpret that as the end of string and then get confused when the string continues.

Thank you for the response. I used your string exactly (changing "INFO" to "INTO" only and inserting my own data and this is what it looks like:
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblEvents (Planner, Name, Date, Time, Location, Description, Attendees) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?,?)"
Then I create all my parameters as follows:
<br />
oleParams(0) = New OleDbParameter("Planner", cboEventPlanner.Text)<br />
oleParams(1) = New OleDbParameter("Name", txtName.Text)<br />
oleParams(2) = New OleDbParameter("Date", dtpDate.Text)<br />
oleParams(3) = New OleDbParameter("Time", txtTime.Text)<br />
oleParams(4) = New OleDbParameter("Location", txtLocation.Text)<br />
oleParams(5) = New OleDbParameter("Description", txtDescription.Text)<br />
oleParams(6) = New OleDbParameter("Attendees", strAttendees)<br />
Finally, I add the parameters as follows:
oleCommand.Parameters.AddRange(oleParams)
I have tried every kind of arrangement of the strSQL string. Additionally, I have tried adding each parameter individually instead of as a range. I even explicity declared 7 oleDbParamter objects and stuffed each one with the respective parameters. No matter what I do, it gives me the following error when the Submit button on my form is clicked:
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I'm at a complete loss.

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS SACRED
I honestly feel like spooning my own eyes out with a dull pencil at present.
As it turns out, the issue was never the actual syntax, per sé, of the SQL statement but rather the usage of field names such as: "Name", "Date" and "Time". These three, for example, happen to be reserved keywords within MS Access so when I sent the statement:
strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblEvents (Planner, Name, Date, Time, Location, Description, Attendees) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?,?)"
Access was hiccuping on those three because it didn't know what the hell to do with them.
/sigh
Anyway, the problem was solved by simply renaming all my fields in the database by prefixing each one with a 'p' for "parameter". The program works fine now.

I believe* you can also escape reserved words when they are used as column names by enclosing the column name in square brackets. e.g. [Name]
I'm primarily a SQL Server person.

Hi
Yes you are right... same thing applies for when the field name has a space in it. eg., [Student Id]

I'm trying to use a data reader to add items to an arraylist
I've tried several approaches - my code always reads the database correctly
( I can see the values it finds) but then I get an exception saying
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
My original ideas were something like this:
Dim IdNums as arraylist
Dim command As OleDbCommand = con.CreateCommand()
command.CommandText = "SELECT Id from Candidates "
Dim reader As IDataReader = command.ExecuteReader
While (reader.Read())
m_ID = reader("id")
IdNums.Add(m_ID)
End while
OR
Dim IDNums as arraylist
Dim command As OleDbCommand = con.CreateCommand()
command.CommandText = "SELECT Id from Candidates "
Dim reader As IDataReader = command.ExecuteReader
Dim i As Integer = 0
While (reader.Read())
IdNums.Add(reader.GetValue(i))
End while
I thought the error message meant I had to create an object so I tried
Dim IDNums as arraylist
Dim command As OleDbCommand = con.CreateCommand()
command.CommandText = "SELECT Id from Candidates "
Dim reader As IDataReader = command.ExecuteReader
Dim IDobj As string = " "
While (reader.Read())
IdNums.Add(IDobj)
End while
but same results
Any thoughts
Thanks

Try using the "New" keyword as in
Dim IDNums as New ArrayList.

I am trying to work my way into vb.net and classes. However right now I am locked into VB6 but can start using classes.
I can access "NewExam.Sections(3).Items(4).Name" using the followng code:
Type udtItem
ItemNum As Integer
Locked As Boolean
Name As String
End Type
Type udtSection
Items() As udtItem
End Type
Type udtExam
Sections() As udtSection
End Type
Dim NewExam As udtExam
Is there a easy way to do the same thing with classes without having to create 3 or more seperate classes.

After 10 or 20 minutes, my ASPX website loses the Global Variables defined in GLOBAL.asax The following is in Global.asax which has been designated as readonly file.
<script language="VB" runat="Server">
Public Class GlobalVarDefinitions
Public GlobalVars As Object
Public Company As String
End Class
Sub Session_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim GlobalVars As New GlobalVarDefinitions
Session("Globals") = GlobalVars
Session("Globals").Company = "89"
Session("Globals").CompanyName = "Walong"
End Sub
</script>
In the individual aspx programs, the Global Variables are reference like this:
ICompany = Session("Globals").Company
In HTML as: <%=Session("Globals").CompanyName%>
How can I stop losing my Global Session Variables?????

Please check the session time out period. In your webconfig file look into SessionState property and look for timeout atribute. This attribute decides the timeout period for your session.

Thanks, Also, appparently the IIS Session Time-out overrides the webconfig file Time-out setting.
I found this on the website below:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<sessionState
mode="Inproc"
cookieless="true"
timeout="20" />
</sessionState>
</system.web>
</configuration>
This shows the values you need in the <sessionState code in the webconfig file. Reference: http://authors.aspalliance.com/aspxtreme/aspnet/syntax/sessionstatesection.aspx (cut and paste this URL in your Browser, this page explains all the appropriate values.)
By the way, my origianl code Session Variables work great, they are just timing out. So, if this is the solution, I have a solid, nicely working internal website.

hi..cstrader232 (how to spell your name?) 
It's not easy to make tutorial. if i got ones i will inform you..
But let take a look in your problem.. what are the problem regarding to fill or refill dataset and also with table adapter. ?
just let us know ur problem then we can respon it as soon as we understand and figure out the solution.
Beside, you have to try by yourself to experience more problem and that will make you sharper.
How about interactive tutorial..?
