Howdy,
I've spent a good 2 or 3 hours this morning trying to figure out this
code. I'm new to the .Net environment and have some VB6 skills but
that was 3 years ago.
My project I'm working on accesses a Access DB to pull in data. I used
the designer to pull in the components I needed to connect to the
database.
Here is my Code:
Me.OleDbConnect ion1.Connection String = "Jet OLEDB:Global Partial Bulk
Ops=2;Jet OLEDB:Registry Path=;Jet OLEDB:Database L" & _
"ocking Mode=1;Data Source=""C:\Owe ns\Visual Studio
Projects\Tailor ing\bin\tailori " & _
"ng.mdb"";Mode= Share Deny None;Jet OLEDB:Engine
Type=5;Provider =""Microsoft.Je t.OLE" & _
"DB.4.0"";J et OLEDB:System database=;Jet
OLEDB:SFP=False ;persist security info=Fal" & _
"se;Extende d Properties=;Jet OLEDB:Compact Without Replica
Repair=False;Je t OLEDB" & _
":Encrypt Database=False; Jet OLEDB:Create System
Database=False; Jet OLEDB:Don't C" & _
"opy Locale on Compact=False;U ser ID=Admin;Jet OLEDB:Global
Bulk Transactions=1"
I think this is a bit over kill, but what I'm trying to do is get it
so that I can put in the relative path to the database instead of
literal. However, when I change the datasource path it gives me an
error with my dataset.
Example of that code here:
Dim dbPath as String =
Application.Sta rtupPath & "\tailoring.mdb "
Me.OleDbConnect ion1.Connection String = "Jet OLEDB:Global Partial Bulk
Ops=2;Jet OLEDB:Registry Path=;Jet OLEDB:Database L" & _
"ocking Mode=1;Data
Source=[b:6e962dc7b3]dbPath[/b:6e962dc7b3];Mode=Share Deny None;Jet
OLEDB:Engine Type=5;Provider =""Microsoft.Je t.OLE" & _
"DB.4.0"";J et OLEDB:System database=;Jet
OLEDB:SFP=False ;persist security info=Fal" & _
"se;Extende d Properties=;Jet OLEDB:Compact Without Replica
Repair=False;Je t OLEDB" & _
":Encrypt Database=False; Jet OLEDB:Create System
Database=False; Jet OLEDB:Don't C" & _
"opy Locale on Compact=False;U ser ID=Admin;Jet OLEDB:Global
Bulk Transactions=1"
This is the Error I get when I attempt to run it with that code.
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Data.Ol eDb.OleDbExcept ion'
occurred in system.data.dll
Code for that line is: OleDbDataAdapte r1.Fill(DataSet 1)
Anyone have any suggestions? 3 2466
Ddraig,
I have send this message this morning to Barkster (and when you see there he
showed that it did work for him)
I can let you search, however I copied it.
I have strugled a longtime with this and it is so easy, just set in the load
event from your form (or whatever place, before the connection object is
used however after that it is initialized) using the connection object you
have created with the designer (and don't change that in the designer
generated code) the connection string.
Someting as
OleDBConnection 1.connectionstr ing = "xxxxxxxxxx xxx" & applicationstar tuppath
Mostly those connection strings do not have that difficult as build with the
designer, have a look at these links for them. http://www.connectionstrings.com/ http://www.able-consulting.com/ADO_Conn.htm
I hope this helps?

Hi All,
This is sure to be an easy question.
I am wondering what the accepted standard is for referencing a sub-folder
below the application.exe folder? In VB6 you simply used App.Path and
navigated from the folder indicated. In .Net, however, when running through
the IDE, this seems to return either the ...bin/debug or ...bin/release
folder - in which case the 'sub-folders' are actually to be found in the
.../../ folder.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
