Dear.,
I hope that access2000 is not able to access thro vb. So, u have to convet the database to the lower version. There is an option for that in the access.
And then u make the connection b/w them. I hope its do good.
Perhaps u had any error yet, then select the project-> there reference and select the microsoft Activex dataobject 2.0 library.
Even After u had err then check the Data source name created is correct or not in the control pannel.
bye

You might want to try reinstalling MDAC 2.5SP3 on the machine to see if this fixes the problem. You can get the older version from here[^].

I want to make an exe that runs in the background, and react when I call it with for example a filename. How do i make an exe to accept arguments and react on them?

In VB6, you can get the command line arguments from the Command variable.
In VB.NET, you can get them from the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Command() variable.
VB.NET docs on this are here[^].
Now, did you want to communicate with an already running instance of your app or is your app going to be running as a service?

hi i am new in the database projects across network, now for eg if there are 10 client machines and a server and we have our access database on the server how can we connect the client to the databse ie the path would be???

You could use an ODBC data source, or you can use \\server_name\database_name.mdb
Free your mind...

hi,
i have the same problem with my project. i have an existing system which is a stand alone app. using ms access version 95, created in VB6.0... well because it's a bit old system. but is runs quit very well.
the system owners decided to make the app. run over the network, they have a total of 10 workstations on their office, all are running win 7 OS. 1 is for the primary admin and 4 is for staff. 5 are for users. the database is located at workstation 1, the other computers wants to access the database.
here is a sample code given to me:
Option Explicit
Dim Conn As New ADODB.Connection
Conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=\\IP\DIR\Data\masterFile.mdb"
as the patch
but i get an erro "User-Define not defined" on "Dim Conn As New ADODB.Connection"
am i missing something like an add-on or reference maybe, like in C# we used to add the reference for SQL connection.
do i need to install something?

How do I - in vb - write code that, when i rightcklick on a file i want to catch the path and the filename?

Are you talking about writing a Shell extension?
If so, you can't do it in VB6 without a little outside help from VC++. VB6 can't generate the required .DLL type to get this to work properly.

Can anyone remember if there is a performance difference between using a recordset's Fields property or referencing it by default. I thought that I read something about them being different, but I can't find any documentation on it. Please see my example below.
Dim rs as ADODB.Recordset
dim sText as String
...
sText = rs.Fields("MY_TEXT")
OR
sText = rs("MY_TEXT")
I'm using VB6
|
|
|
|

There shouldn't be any performance difference at all. Are you experiencing any differences?
On top of that, using the default proprty is poor programming practice. It just makes your project more difficult to convert to VB.NET in the future.

Thanks, I'm taking over a contract where the main goal is to clean up the code and make it more maintainable (and get it ready for .NET). I've been primarily working with Java and C++ for the last 4 or 5 years, so things are obviously different. Anyway, I've come across a lot of code that used default properties and before going in there and changin a bunch of stuff I wanted to make sure I had good reason. Thanks.

The best way to do it is to use WMI. THere is an article on the technique here[^].

 I am using VB.NET and I have tried to find how to format a textbox to automatically change the first letter into a uppercase when someone types in the textbox. For example, I start typing in, food, when the first letter isnt capitalized I want it to automatically convert that first letter to uppercase, Food. Can anyone help?

How about setting up a TextChanged event handler and doing a test, if the text starts with a lower case letter then change it.

My problem is how to test it, what code or codes do I use to test it, so it will automatically change the first char to an upper.
|
|
|
|
|
I see a couple of ways.
1. Don't bother with a test and just do it this way:
s = s.Substring(0,1).ToUpper() + s.Substring(1);
You may need to test the length and conditionally omit the + s.Substring(1)
2. Get the first character, cast it to a number and test the range. You'll need to find an ASCII table, because I can't remember the codes.
Option 1 may be better as the ToUpper() and ToLower() methods are culturally aware - If you have accented characters like áéíóú it will get them too, whereas with option 2 you need to find all possibilities yourself.

This is great, only one small problem, I dont know how to create substrings to work correctly, any ideas?
|
|
|
|

Emmmmm... I have no idea what you mean....
You have a string you call the substring method on it and Robert is your father's brother.

Your question might be better answered on the Visual C++ board, not this one.

I am using a open file dialog to open a .cda music file from my CD-ROM Drive.
I then put the path into a text box.
I then play the file with the Process.Start
How can I increment the songs on the cd and put the new path into the textbox?
How can I get the next song to play when the previous one is finished?
How can I get the length of the song?
My default application opens with Process.Start, how do I get the application to play the file without opening up?
Many Thanks,
Glen Conaway
