Hi... I'm not too sure if I understand but I think you mean that my datbase location is not hard coded. I have it set as "dataSource=..\..\data\Accessdatabase.mdb" for the connection string datasource. the reason why i have done it like this is that i need to move my application around to various workstations while i am developing and I was taught that hard coding my connection string(aka using just the generated connection string) is bad practice? So if I am using a relative path and i choose to publish my software will it give me problems and will I only be able to select files from within the project solution folder to add to my datagridview?

No, it's because it's relative, so you rely on the working directory. The working directory is changed when you select a file.
As I said, get the application directory, and use that as a starting point to reach the database file.

Hi,
I am beginner to vb.2003
I am working with CrystalReport in vb.2003. I have problem in passing the parameter value.
when I pass the date value from the form to CrystalReport i used this code.
Dim OB As New Receipts_monitoring
OB.SetParameterValue("Begindate", datetimepickerbegin.Value)
how i can pass the none date value to the CrystalReport.
(because i want to pass the value to the CrystalReport and sometimes i don't want to pass the value to CrystalReport)
please help me.

You could make the parameter optional

hello, can someone help me?
i trying to do a add to list coding
here the story, i try to do a toys ordering system. i want to implement a "add to list/cart" function into my systems. can i do that? if it is,whats the coding?
it is necessarily to connect the features from access?

Hey
You need to implement this at a kernel level to avoid any security restrictions, you could use assembler. I am assuming you are working on an x86 derivative which is a difficult instruction set to master as it is a CISC processor - Complex Instruction Set Computer so rather than learning it as it will take a long time it is probably better to learn PIC16F84 asm which is a RISC - Reduced Instruction Set Computer and then implementing an emulator to translate PIC16F84 into x86 asm.
If you google "PIC16f84 asm shopping cart implemented in and x86 with multithreading and article to do my homework"
I am sure you will find loads of results.

thanks for the reply.....
i really appreciate it

Well yes I did realise this however after hours of reading i discovered that x86b can actually cause a fracture in the space time continueum if not used correctly so judging by my assumed level of the posters question I deemed it necessary for him to use x86asm if the universe is to continue as is.
Thanks for your concern and maybe he can learn x86b next.

Oops my question got deleted - I think one of my gerbils stood on the delete key.
I use them to write my code for me as their random generation of code is much better than anything I can write.
For anyone else who is interested - I suggested using the x86b as the photvolteic capacitance of the transmogrification process from the algorithm is more stable - or something like that.
You always pass failure on the way to success.

Try reading the sticky post on top of the forum, that explains how to ask questions so that people can answer them.
For starters, add to cart implies ASP.NET, there's a forum for ASP.NET. If you ask in the VB forum, at least tell us it's ASP.NET.

That's not a good question to ask. The articles on this site are here to give full code for things, the forums are for helping people with existing code.

If you want to store your orders, then you'd have some database on the back end, yes.

Hi,
I have two forms, frm1 and frm2. If a specific event occurs, i want another form to be opened, and that frm1 passes the variable "Drive" on to frm2. How can i accomplish this?
Thanks in advance,
--Zaegra--
|
|
|
|
|
Public Sub frm1_Load(EventArgs e) Handles frm1.Load
Me.variable = frm2.Drive
End Sub
NOTE: make sure you add the "Drive variable" to frm2.
Good luck!
Code pre-built is code that you don't have to build later.

Hi Zaegra,
Best is to declare a property in the target form (frm2). You can then assign the property the value you want to pass on from the calling form (frm1):
Public Class frm1<br />
Dim DriveValue as String<br />
Public Property Drive() As String<br />
Get<br />
Return DriveValue<br />
End Get<br />
Set(ByVal Value As String)<br />
DriveValue = Value<br />
End Set<br />
End Property<br />
Private Sub frm1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load<br />
MsgBox(DriveValue.ToString)<br />
End Sub<br />
End Class<br />
<br />
Public Class frm2<br />
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click<br />
Dim frm As New frm1<br />
frm.Drive = "C:\"<br />
frm.Show()<br />
End Sub<br />
Dim <br />
End Class
or something like that...
Good luck,
Johan
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

Sorry, but why doesn't this code sort my table by the variable DateValue?
ChartDataTable.Select("Datevalue > 0", "Datevalue")
ChartDataTable.AcceptChanges()
This code then prints the data in the unsorted order:
For Each dr As DataRow In ChartDataTable.Rows
Console.WriteLine(dr.Item("DateValue"))
Next
thanks

cstrader232 wrote: ChartDataTable.Select("Datevalue > 0", "Datevalue")
Because the Select method returns an array of DataRow object, which your code completly ignored. It does not make any changes to the existing DataTable.
You can get rid of the AcceptChanges line, it doesn't do anything here.
cstrader232 wrote: This code then prints the data in the unsorted order:
Like I said, you completely ignored, and dropped, the array of DataRow objects returned by the Select method. You're looking for something more like:
Dim sortedRows() As DataRow = ChartDataTable.Select("Datevalue > 0", "Datevalue DESC")
For Each dr As DataRow In sortedRows
Console.WriteLine(dr.Item("DateValue"))
Next

OK, sorry... but I would then think that you could put that row collection right back into the table it came out of.
Can you give me the best procedure for doing that?
This doesn't seem to work (input array longer than number of columns in the table):
Dim SortedRows() As DataRow = ChartDataTable.Select("DateValue > 0", "DateTimevalue")
ChartDataTable.Clear()
ChartDataTable.Rows.Add(SortedRows)

cstrader232 wrote: but I would then think that you could put that row collection right back into the table it came out of.
The rows weren't removed from the table. So, there's nothing to "put back".
Besides, you can't write them back to the database in a specific order anyway. Databases don't care about the order of records and do not guarantee the order in which the records are retrieved from the table unless the SELECT statement specifies an ORDER BY clause.
So, what you're doing is a complete waste of time.

OK, on that I can agree!
...but I think now I can see that I want to operate on the row collection (which is sorted) rather than the datatable itself (which cannot be)
Thanks

How can i restrict the date and time picker to a year and month in vb 2005
I am picking the value of year from a combo and month from another...
I want the date and time picker should nor allow the user to move to another month or year
Regards

Set DateTimePicker.MinDate and DateTimePicker.MaxDate
Hope it works for you,
Johan

I tried mindate and maxdate but the issue is that how will i select a month....
i think i have to give a better description
I am using the interface to get date of birth
I have 2 combo boxes one to select year and other to select month ... Once the user selects year... month combo box is enabled... on select of month date picker is enabled... now i want the user should not be in a position to move to any other month or year in the date picker... until he again changes from any of the two combo boxes
|

Why not catch the month change made by the user, and put back the month from your combobox with a messagebox saying he can't change that way?
