Hello,
I'm trying to connect to an Access database using C# Asp.NET 3.5. Although i'm setting the connection and the connection is opening successfully, when trying to execute a command against a table Visual Studio throws the following error:
OleDbException
"Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\CCureLiveData.mdb'."
The connection string has not changed and the database is open, it is just the command that is causing this error for some reason!
Does anybody know why VS looks in the directory in the first place? I have not told it to and all the right permissions are set on the folder where it should be looking!
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks Matthew Chamberlain

For best results in all Windows file handling, always specify the full path to any file. Otherwise you get the 'current directory', which is potentially different for each thread (a thread inherits its 'current directory' from the process, if I recall correctly).
For ASP.NET consider using Server.MapPath to find a file. Use ~/ notation (e.g. "~/CCureLiveData.mdb") to find a file relative to the current application's root - this is easier, and will work even on medium-trust web servers.

Hi,
I dont know if this is possible, but I'll ask anyway.
I need to be able to send an SQL script as a text file, or something similar. The script will be modifying a few columns, and inserting a few new rows. Nothing too complictated....
However...
I am using SqlCE 3.5, so the commandset is slightly reduced, and, worst of all, one of the fields is an Image (i.e. Binary). Its not huge, most records are about 1k, however, it has thrown a bit of a spanner in the works for my simple script idea.
So, I guess I am asking, is there a reasonably simple way to script a database which contains binary data?
Thanks,
Jason

Replying to my own question... I must be sad  )
Anyway, it was easy... after a lot of googling:
insert into [Table] (Field) Values (0x1232132132)
I am a bit ashamed that I missed that. Posted here in case someone else needed it.

i have a number of parameters based on sqlcommand which input data through sql stored procedure
if the user omit one of the parameter fields an Exception raise
i want to make parameters accept nulls without validating user input
note: i have tried isNullable and failed
please help

The stored procedure definition should look like this:
<br />
CREATE PROCEDURE myProc<br />
@param1 INT = NULL<br />
@param2 VARCHAR(50) = NULL<br />
AS<br />
SELECT * FROM [sometable] WHERE col1= COALESCE(@param1, col1) AND col2 = COALESCE(@param2, col2)<br />
GO<br />
You will still have to call Parameters.Add() for each parameter defined by the stored procedure, but now you will be able to pass null values to the procedure w/o getting any exceptions. But you'll need to be aware that you will need to allow for null values to be passed to the query and the effects that will cause. So you'll need to use COALESCE or some other method to allow for nulls in the query.

Hi,
I am a little lost in this situation.
I am required to reuse SQL queries , also I am required NOT to ceate stored procesdures as they reside on SQL server, but there should be some form on the application side to store my SQL queries and call them when required.
What is the best practice to achieve this,
I am thinking of storing on .resx files
Please let me know the best Solution.
Thanks,
Happy Programming!
Regards,
ctrlnick !

Where you store the query text is probably immaterial, because wither you store the query in .resx or hard-code the query into the application you'll still need to recompile when you change the query. However, you should define an interface or at least a data layer class which defines the queries and their parameters and hides the implementation of how you call and execute your queries from your application.
If you are working with DataSet objects then your interface will define the return values as DataSet/DataTable objects. Otherwise, your interface will define the return values as your custom objects.
If you are working with a large number of queries you will need to define multiple interfaces which break up your queries into logical groups which match your object model.
Here's a simple implementation w/o using an interface:
implementation:
<br />
public class DataLayer {<br />
public DataSet GetSomeData(int param1, string param2){<br />
DataSet myData = new DataSet();<br />
<br />
using(DbConnection conn = GetConnectionFactoryMethod()){<br />
using(DbCommand cmd = new DbCommand(conn, "SELECT .... FROM .... WHERE col1 = @param1 AND col2 = @param2")){<br />
cmd.Parameters.Add("@param1", .....);<br />
cmd.Parameters.Add("@param2", .....);<br />
<br />
cmd.Parameters["@param1"].Value = param1;<br />
cmd.Parameters["@param2"].Value = param2;<br />
<br />
DbDataAdapter da = new DbDataAdapter(cmd);<br />
da.Fill(myData);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
return myData;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public DataSet GetSomeDifferentData(string param1, bool param2){<br />
}<br />
<br />
private DbConnection GetConnectionFactoryMethod(){<br />
return new SqlConnection("... connection string ...");<br />
}<br />
}<br />
usage:
<br />
DataLayer myDataLayer = new DataLayer();<br />
<br />
DataSet myData = myDataLayer.GetSomeData(5, "my string");<br />
DataSet myData2 = myDataLayer.GetSomeDifferentData("some value", true);<br />
<br />
By doing this you can store your query text however you like (I say just hard-code the query text into the data layer class). The advantage of doing it this way is that your queries are de-coupled from your application. You can change your data provider or switch to stored procedures or whatever. As long as you return the same dataset (or object) it doesn't matter how you do it.

Dear All,
I want to have a survey on locking mechanisms in SQL Server. I have studied different locking modes including shared,exclusive, intent shared ,...
Besides I have studied different locking modes, table hints and different Isolation levels in SQL server. But I still don't know what should I do if I want to take for example an exclusive lock at a row-level. There are few examples on SQL Server help. Would you please introduce me a reference with examples of these kinds.
Thanks in advance

You do not normally need to do this sort of thing. If you do your insert/update/delete in a consistent manner and use transactions where necessary you can leave the rest to SQL Server.

I want to control it myself. I have many clients that do read and write in on a DB server by long time transactions. But I don't know what to do.
|
|
|
|

I would firstly look at why you have long transactions - there is probably a design flaw somewhere. SQL Server is designed to work with many clients performing simultaneous updates without the need for the developer to attempt to control locking under anything but very exceptional circumstances.
I have been asked about this in the past and it has usually been because the developer either didn't really understand how SQL Server locking works, or they felt they could do a better job than the guys who wrote the code at Microsoft.
If you really want to do it yourself then may I wish you luck, and your end users a lot of patience

Hi all,
I am getting an 'incorrect syntax near StoredProcName' error on debugging the beginings of my web app.
I know the sql syntax is correct as I have tested it in management studio express(2005) annd it returns exactly what I expect. The error is only occuring when calling from my page.
Here's my page code followed by a very simplified stored procedure(I know my complex one will return the correct result and this has the same error).
Page code:
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString);
string sPName = "getProjectProModules2";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sPName, conn);
SqlParameter par1 = new SqlParameter("@modCount", SqlDbType.Int);
par1.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
par1.Size = 1;
cmd.Parameters.Add(par1);
SqlParameter par2 = new SqlParameter("@singleModule", SqlDbType.VarChar);
par2.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
par2.Size = 20;
cmd.Parameters.Add(par2);
conn.Open();
SqlDataReader recaffected;
try
{
recaffected = cmd.ExecuteReader();
if (recaffected.HasRows)
{
int i = 0;
while (recaffected.Read())
{
if (i == 0)
{
string countStr = cmd.Parameters["@modCount"].Value.ToString();
count = Convert.ToInt16(countStr);
}
moduleList[i] = cmd.Parameters["@singleModule"].Value.ToString();
i++;
}
recaffected.Close();
recaffected.Dispose();
return moduleList;
}
else
{
moduleList[0] = "No Modules";
return moduleList;
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
moduleList[0] = ex.Message.ToString();
moduleList[1] = ex.Data.ToString();
moduleList[2] = ex.Source.ToString();
return moduleList;
}
finally
{
conn.Close();
conn.Dispose();
}
SP Code:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.getProjectProModules2
@modCount int OUTPUT, @singleModule varchar(50) OUTPUT
AS
select '1'
RETURN
If I don't put the parameter size in my page code, it errors saying invalid parameter size.
Really not sure whats going wrong, I've looked up the code all over the place and from what i can see I'm doing it right. Anyone have any idea what the problem is?
Thanks in advance.
Mark
OK, fixed that error for those interested, I was not setting the command type to be StoredProcedure. However, I only seem to be able to return null as my parameter values. Still if there's any suggestions I would appreciate it.

To return parameters, you create local variables and pass them to the parameters, from memory.

OK, so I have created 2 local variables, 1 int and 1 string, these I am passing to the paramater as the value,
I.E.
string singleModuleStr = "";
int countInt = 0;
--it doesn't like me not assigning them....
.....
par1.value = countInt;
.....
par2.value = singleModuleStr;
do i then assign the par2.value etc to these variables at recAffected.Read()?
Don't want to sound dumb but I'm used to just returning a select list and I want to be able to do it each possible way to broaden my knowledge.
Thanks for the help so far.

Hey there,
I'm having a little issue with a query. Basically I'm trying to do some paging. There's many ways to do it, I know, but what I came up with was this:
SELECT TOP 10 columnA, columnB
FROM table
WHERE columnA not in (
SELECT TOP 21190 columnA
FROM table
ORDER BY columnC DESC)
ORDER BY columnC DESC
Some notes about it:
columnA is the key
columnD, columnC and columnA are index1
columnD and columnA are index2
columnC is index3.
In SELECT TOP 21190, that number is pageNumber * pageSize
Now... it seems that the very last 'ORDER BY columnC DESC'is the problem. Like it is the query takes around 1 minute to run. If I take that line out, the query runs in less than a second. Or, if I change the ORDER BY to be done by columnA, it also runs in less than a second.
Any ideas?

You need to do an order ASC in one of those queries for this to work. Then you don't need the 'not in', which is your problem. Select in desc order, ending with the first record you want. Then select in your outer query the number you want, in ASC order.

Hi, I want to debug a stored proc on our server but the database contains close to 30k stored procs. So when I press the expand button on the server explorer pane I have to wait for at least 30 minutes before VS unfreezes... This is getting quite annoying...
Out of these 30k stored proces around 95% are useless to me so I would like to filter them by their names.
All the ones I don't want start with 'zDP_'.
Do you know if there is a way to apply a filter before pressing the +?
Alternatively, is there another tool I could use to debug my stored procs?
We are running SQL Server 2005.
Thanks
Fred

hi everybody
I created a website with SQL express database in server explorer, everything is going just fine and now I want to upload the site and the database to the internet so that my customer can test it.
The server on which I want to upload my site to requires me to upload a .mdf file to the server, I searched my computer for the mdf file but I couldn't find it.
Any help please?
Thanks
