Greetings,
I have a program setup for which I would like to pull specific data from an Access database I have created. I know the connection to the database is functioning as I can pull mass data to populate a list box. Where I am having trouble is this. I would like to select a name from said list box and have the database return only information based on the name selected. Once I pull this information I would like to then place each item from this data into it's relevant place on the form. I'd rather not do this using a datagrid on the form. This is what I have currently.
*Note, the names being displayed in the list box is a direct match to the primary keys of each row -
Private Sub OK_Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OK_Button.Click
-
Dim selectedchar As String = characterlst.SelectedItem
-
Dim dt As New DataTable
-
-
con.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = C:\Documents and Settings\Tech\My Documents\4e.mdb;"
-
con.Open()
-
sql = "SELECT * FROM details WHERE [Name]=" & selectedchar
-
da = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql, con)
-
da.Fill(ds, "opening")
-
Try
-
Form1.Nametxt.Text = ds.Tables("opening").Rows(0).Item(0)
-
Catch ex As Exception
-
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message & " - " & ex.Source)
-
End Try
-
-
con.Close()
-
-
Me.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK
-
Me.Close()
-
End Sub
-
When I run this code it gives me an error saying
"no value given for one or more required parameters vb access"
If I change the select statement to read
"SELECT * FROM details WHERE Primary Key =" & selectedchar
it throws me an error saying the syntax is incorrect
In both instances the error is thrown at line 8.
Any help would be much appreciated.

you need to select an item from characterlst before going for the clock event of the button
Meant to update this actually. The problem was this.
I was using
characterlst.se lecteditem
when I should have been using
characterlst.te xt
.selecteditem was returning and integer value for the list location of the selected object instead of the actual text of the selection.
combine that with the fact that for the query to function properly it needed to be done as thus
"Select * FROM details Where name=" & "'" & selectedchar & "'"
the proper/working code is as follows -
Private Sub OK_Button_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OK_Button.Click
-
Dim selectedchar As String = characterlst.Text
-
con.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source = C:\Documents and Settings\Tech\My Documents\4e.mdb;"
-
con.Open()
-
sql = "SELECT * FROM details WHERE name='" & selectedchar & "'"
-
da = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql, con)
-
da.Fill(ds, "opening")
-
Try
-
Form1.Nametxt.Text = ds.Tables("opening").Rows(0).Item(0)
-
Form1.Racecmb.SelectedItem = ds.Tables("opening").Rows(0).Item(1)
-
Catch ex As Exception
-
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message & " - " & ex.Source)
-
End Try
-
-
con.Close()
-
Form1.Enabled = True
-
Me.DialogResult = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK
-
Me.Close()
-
End Sub

Does anyone know where i can find a decently thorough list of the language

All i can seem to find through search engines, most of the articles all talk

Thanks in advance, ...

I am trying to make a VB2008 Express winforms project, and edit the form.
However, when i try to open the form, i get this error:
..NET Framework 2.0 update not found. The win32manifest will not be embedded.
It considers it a fatal error, and will not let me edit the form, either in
code or design view.
I have frameworks 1.1, 2.0, 3.5 installed, and all Windows Updates (sans
DreamScene).

N'y aurait-il pas depuis la VB8 un moyen d'assigner en une seule instruction
l'ensemble des propriétés d'un objet aux propriétés de mêmes noms d'un autre
objet, plutôt que d'écrire la liste fastidieuse :
O2.P1 = O1.P1
O2.P2 = O1.P2
O3.P2 = O1.P3

Hi,
I'm rewriting an old VB6 app of mine in VB2008. All has been going well with
calls to winscard.dll, until I needed to send an array of bytes as part of a
structure. When using a winscard trace, I can see that the bytes in the
array suddenly become nonsense, whereas I know that what I called the DLL
with was good.
I think I need to do something along the lines of MarshalAs, but I haven't
the first clue where to start. Any...

Looking to migrate from VB2005 Pro to VB2008. Can anyone
