Dynamically creating Connection String

19 New Member
HI,
What my Idea is to develop a class which will create connection string depending upon the version of the database, i.e Office2007 or Office2010, we are using. Can We make such? If So, any idea is welcomed. Thanks in adv.

Close the connection. 4. Pass the connection string in the new forms constructor and assign the connection string after the...

Hello, I was wondering what the best way would be to dynamically determine and store connection string information. What I mean by this is that I want the application to user the servervariable to determine what location it is running in and then dynamically assign a connection string value based on that location. I was planning on doing this from the codebehind pages which works fine because I am able to use the response object to...

Hello, I'm developing a web services apllication using SQL Server in mixed mode. I'm also using WSE 3.0. For each user in the application there's a corresponding user on the database. The client always sends the username to the web service for identification. I have a connection string stored in the web service for the visual designed datasets and for the connection I make manually.

The company I work is considering to use the Enterprise Library (january/2006) Data Data Access Application Block. The problem is an internal policy that forces all company systems to get the connection string from a text file that already exists in the network. Is there any way to just pass the connection string to the Data Data Access Application Block instead of getting it from the app.config or web.config? I belive I´ll have to...

Hi, At startup the user log on and chooses the name of a client from a dropdownlist, which then changes dynamically the connection string (the name of the client indicates which database to use). I then change dynamically the connection string by doing : My.Settings.Item("ConnectionString") = "some connection sring" The problem is that if another user loggs in and chooses another client, then obviously it changes the connection string...

Hi, I don't get it. I'm using a typed dataset with table adapters and all that stuff. I have the database server running locally on my development system. Now: when creating a tableadapter I'm asked for the connection and the connection string is automatically stored in the settings. So far so good. However, my typed dataset is declared within a dll that implements other

VS2008, .NetFramework 3.5 SP1: I have built a LINQ data access layer project. When the LINQ data context was built over an existing SQL2005 database, the connection string for that database was correctly, automatically, placed into the Settings for the LINQ project. It works, but it's a "static" connection string. I would like to be able to use this one LINQ data access layer against both test and production databases without having...

Hi Everyone, I have a problem that is quite frusturating. I am passing in an image from a database, which is to be accessed in an image button. When I dynamically add the string for an sql command, the image is not found, and a red X appears in place of the image. However, when I use a static string, everything works and the image is there. I have tested my code, and special characters is not the problem. I posted my code below.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
