Hi
This problem occurs because using installshield didn't include the supporting dll and ocx required for the report printing this error occor when you try to view the crystal report in your application. to solve the problem you must include the runtime redistributble version for crystal report into your setup script.
hope this will help you out
with regards

I am reading a csv file and showing the data in the grid by with the following code
Dim oCon As OdbcConnection ', oDS As New DataSet
ods = New DataSet
'Dim oDA As OdbcDataAdapter
Dim sConString As String
' Dim sFolder As String
' Dim sFile As String
'Folder where csv file is located
sFolder = "C:\"
'csv Filename
sFile = "Template.csv"
sConString = "Driver={Microsoft Text Driver (*.txt; *.csv)};Dbq=" & sFolder & ";"
oCon = New OdbcConnection(sConString)
oda = New OdbcDataAdapter("Select * From [" + sFile + "]", oCon)
oda.Fill(ods)
dtGridFile.DataSource = ods.Tables(0).DefaultView
Now the problem is that I have one field with contains '0000' but it is showing only '0' in the grid and when I try to run the query on the bases of this field it does not return the records becoz In dataset it is only '0' while in database field contains '0000'.
How I can get have the same values in the dataset as I have in csv file?
Thanks in advance

You need to "explain" to the code that '0000' is a string and not a number.
You could try it by adapting the sql, something like this:
"Select CAST(YourQuadrupleZeroField AS NVARCHAR(4)) as YourQuadrupleZeroField From [" + sFile + "]"
Remember that the 4 should be the maximum possible length (number of characters) of that field.
Hope it helps,
Johan
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

The field containing '0000' is a varchar field.I am using Oracle database.
I need to read all the fields not only one field so that's why using
"Select * from [" + sFile + "]"
There are more than 25 fields in the file.

No matter what you should still explicitly specify the columns you want returned from the SELECT statement for performance reasons. That being said, how your database table is defined is completely irrelevant to your problem. The problem is happening when you create the ODBC connection to the CSV file. Since the field in question contains numeric data, the Jet engine is treating it as a numeric field. (If you look at the column properties for the DataTable that was created for you, it should show that the column is a numeric data type.)
You need to explicitly convert the column to text data in your SELECT statement by casting it or create a schema.ini file that defines the column data types. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/187670[^] for more information on the schema.ini file.

Using an MDI form, it's easy to set up a row or column of buttons to the side of the client area. Is there any nice way to use a splitter so the user can resize the client area (assuming the buttons can resize themselves to their container)? The splitter control is very nice for most such purposes, but I don't see any way to set one of the panels to behave as the MDI client area. Is there any nice way to do so, short of using a fake splitter control and using click/mousemove events to force-resize the button bar?

It's possible to do, but not easily. On an MdiParent form, there is a control that's automatically put on the form which handles all of the MdiChild windows and provides a place to render them. This control is a class, just like any other control on the form, called MdiClient. Since it is a control, deriving from the Control class, it behaves just like any other control. All it needs is a parent container to render itself in. By default, the MdiClient control is added to the MdiParent form's Controls collection. All your code has to do is find the MdiClient control and give it a new parent container, such as one of the Panels of a Splitter container.
There is a problem with this though. Any NEW instances of a form that you want to add to the MdiParent won't work unless you move the MdiClient control BACK to the MdiParent form's Controls container. What this means is that while you CAN put the MdiClient control on the right side of a splitter, you cannot add any MdiChild forms to it until you move the MdiClient back to where you found it, add the form, then move the MdiClient back to the right-side panel of the splitter.
Why? Because once you move the MdiClient from the Controls collection of a Form, it's no longer considered an MdiParent form and cannot be used to set the MdiParent property of a new form instance.
There might be a way around this, but I'd have to test it before I say anything.

I have a directory tree control which uses a Try/Catch stmt. As the code loops through file fodlers, the Catch picks up on the fact that I am trying to access a Norton (Symantec) folder which I do not have access to on my C Drive. I need to find a way to error handle the code so that it progress and continues to populate my Tree Control. The way it works now is it prompts the user with an error message and then the code stalls.
Private Function GetDirectories(ByVal PathIn As String, ByVal NodeIn As TreeNode) As Boolean
Dim HasFiles As Boolean = False
Dim MyNode As TreeNode
Dim MyDirs() As String
Dim LocalPath As String = Nothing
Try
MyDirs = Directory.GetDirectories(PathIn)
For Each Item As String In MyDirs
MyNode = New TreeNode(PathIn & "\" & Item)
HasFiles = Me.GetDirectories(Item, MyNode)
If HasFiles Then
NodeIn.Nodes.Add(MyNode)
End If
HasFiles = Me.GetTextFiles(PathIn, NodeIn) Or HasFiles
Next
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
Return HasFiles
End Function
Thanks

Okay, so the proper way to do this would be to check whether you have access to a directory, before adding it to your tree. However, I personally don't know how to do that, so I suggest you simply use an inner try-catch clause. In other words, step through your app in debug mode, determine at which point exactly the error is thrown, and put just that sentence, or block of code, in its own try and catch block, such that the try catch block is nested inside the loop.
My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.

Hello every one
I am working on a application which was originally done in VB6 and then migrated to vb.net 2005 express…
A lot of changes had already undergone in the application and it is working fine, now we are undergoing lot of new additions..
We are using ADODB to connect to the database with a connection object and have a recordset to access data.
- Now the issue is that if the N/w connection breaks to the DB server the I wanted the application to retry (as in case of wireless, signals do drop and come back at times) after few moments.. But even when the network is back again the application still dose not connects to the DB server…
- I checked the connection object’s status and recordset also.. Both seem to be fine…
Can any one plz help me on this..
Regards
Nishkarsh

I am sorry I do not have a ready solution for you, but we experience the same problem with PDA's on our WLAN. We have found out that for us the problem is caused because the device does not receive a new IP address from the server, after the connection was dropped.
If your problem is related, you could try to make your device renew its IP configuration before you try to reconnect to the db.
Hope this is of help to you,
Johan

Thanks for the input...
I am using static IP address on the client machines..So there is no issue to acquire new IP address..
Is there any way to refresh the connection and recordset objects??

Hi!
i have many textboxes on a form in a vb .net 2005 application
these textboxes are databound.
Is there any way i can set the MaxLength property of these textboxes (which are bound to varchar fields in the database) to the size of the field in the database.
Or how do i access the field (i.e. DataColumn of the table) to which a textbox is bound.
Thank You
|
|
|
|
|
may be you should try textbox1.mexlength = 20 'Length
Good Luck
|
|
|
|
|
but, the problem remains. what length should i set as i don't know the lenght of the field in the database?
|
|
|
|
|
You can query the database for the length, assuming you are using SQL server. Not sure about other DBs.
|
|
|
|
|
for that issue u have to keep track of which field u are accessing
There is another way to do it but this will introduce a real big overload on the system and application will become slow...
What you can do is just before you set the size of textbox do a query and to get the field size(I am not sure how to do it... but for sure there will be a query for sure)... and then assign the max size of textbox
Good Luck
|
|
|
|
|
why do i need to query the database for the length of the field since my textboxes are databound (using drag & drop from the data sources window) and the properties of the the datatables show the mapped fields (i.e. varchar(6) to system.string with length 6). Is there any way I can access these properties of the datatables.

My existing VB6 programs make extensive use of random files read and written to using complex structures. For example...
Private Type RightsElement
ItemName As String * 10
ItemFolder As String * 32
End Type
Private Type OneUser
UserName As String * 20
Password As String * 20
AllRights (0 to 64) As RightsElement
End Type
I could then declare a variable such as
Dim ThisUsersRights As OneUser
and subsequently read or write to a random file using this variable.
I have tried in vain to make this work in VB.Net 2008. I NEED to be able to read my existing files. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Or perhaps point me in the right direction for getting an answer?
Many thanks.
Steve
