Hi folks,
From a dataset (generated by Data.SqlClient rather than Data.OleDb) can I determine the original SQL Datatype? I am trying to determine if a field is Currency vs. a straight decimal. It seems that the "datatype" property of the datacolumn object return decimal for both SQl currency and SQL decimal.
Thanks

Hi, all,
I am very close to finish my first .NET application( C#, Winform Datagrid, and MS Access database). I can modify all the data in my DataSet on my winform datagrid. NowI am trying for the first time to save the data back to my Access DB. When I call daMyDataAdaptor.Update( for a single table), I got this attached error. It says the UPDATE statement has syntax error, but the Statement was created by the wizard when I configured DataAdaptor, how can it be wrong? I know this must be something I missed, Please help.
Due to size limitation of the attachment, I can not attach the small test program. If you can help me, I can sent you the zip test program.
Code on Save button as follows:
------------------------------------
if ( connMain.State != ConnectionState.Open )
{
connMain.Open();
}
System.Data.OleDb.OleDbTransaction trans = connMain.BeginTransaction();
daTaskList.UpdateCommand.Transaction = trans;
try
{
daTaskList.Update(dsMain1, "LMTaskList");
//System.Exception MyErr = new System.Exception("Error Occurred");
//throw(MyErr);
trans.Commit();
}
catch(System.Exception err)
{
trans.Rollback();
MessageBox.Show("Failed to save Available Tasks!\n" + "Details: " + err.ToString() );
}
finally
{
connMain.Close();
}
-----------------------------------------------------
I wonder what is wrong with the code I have.
Thanks again.

What was the error message that you got?
What SQL Insert/Update/Delete statements were you using?

After about a day, I finally figured out what is wrong. In my DB table, I have a column called "Value". It caused the crash.
Thanks anyway.

Hi,
I am developing a simple WinForm app with datagrid on the form. I want to know when any cell text changed so that I can enable my Save button. What event should I handle? Any example will be even better. Thanks.

I'm creating a simple Access Database with one table and one boolean field via ADOX and Jet Oledb Provider.
The following code gives me an IDispatch Error 3105 when appending the Table. Note that with adInteger or adVarWChar the code is working. Any idea ? Thx in advance.
pThisAdoCatalogPtr.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Catalog));
pThisAdoTablePtr.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Table));
pThisAdoColumnPtr.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Column));
pThisAdoCatalogPtr->Create("PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=4;Jet OLEDB:System Database=c:\\MsOffice\\Access\\System.mdw;Data Source=mybase.mdb;User Id=admin;Jet OLEDB:Database Password=mypass;");
pThisAdoTablePtr->Name="MyTable";
pThisAdoColumnPtr->Name="BooleanColumn";
pThisAdoColumnPtr->Type=adBoolean;
pThisAdoColumnPtr->Attributes=adColNullable;
pThisAdoTablePtr->Columns->Append(_variant_t((IDispatch *)pThisAdoColumnPtr), adBoolean, 0);
pThisAdoCatalogPtr->Tables->Append(_variant_t((IDispatch *)pThisAdoTablePtr)); <--- Here is the exception thrown.

Hiya I have an MFC app that writes data to my SQL database. The columns lenghts are set to 30. But when I open my SQL database to view the contents, I can only see the first 15 chars of each column..
How do I get the SQL database to display the full columns lenghts when it is opened??
Thanks,
grahamoj.

Are you passing spaces at the end of the values at all, is it 30 characters of data, could you be trimming the values?

in query analyser, tools menu, options, results tab, maximum output characters per column.

Hiya thanks, have checked that but it is already set to 256 chars.
What I do is write the info to the database and then using Enterprise Manager, go in to the table to view it. All of the string is in the column. I can see it when I expand the column.
What I want to be able to do is when I open the table in Enterprise Manager, I want the column already expanded to the full lenght of the string...
Any ideas,
grahamoj

Hy guys,
I have a question relative to passing parameters of Class Accessor:
Below an extract of my code:
string sqlcmd;
sqlcmd = "UPDATE FileLocation \
SET LastAccessTime = CONVERT(DateTime,???????,121), \
LastUpdateTime = CONVERT(DateTime,??????,121) \
WHERE ([Index] = 1)";
// if(FAILED(ThedboSPSelectAccessor.Open(DBSession, _T("{ ? = CALL dbo.SPdboTWOModifyTime;1 (?,?) }"))))
if(FAILED(ThedboSPSelectAccessor.Open(DBSession, sqlcmd.c_str() ) ) )
I tried to using the calling of store procedure and all it's OK,after I tried to use a sql command but I don't know like to pass the two parameters (indicated as ?????), I tried using ? or (?) or '?' but noone is correct...
Can someone help me???
Thanks in advance.

Is it possible to define one db connection only, then define multiple dataReader assoiciated with that connection in ADO.net? If yes, how to do it? Thanks!
|
|

|

In general, it's not wise to do so. In a single threaded application you might orchestrate these DataReaders to use only one connection (that means one at a time, but that's probably not what you want), but in any multi-threaded environment (like ASP.NET) you will get into all kinds of trouble.
Rely on the underlying data provider to perform connection-pooling, and open a connection for each operation. For SQL Server you can specify a connectionstring a la: "Server=SVR1;Database=Northwind;...;Pooling=true"
This will force the re-use of connections, and makes opening one a lot cheaper.

No you can't have multiple datareaders open at the same time for the same database connection.
You might want to think of the following alternatives:- Open, read, then close each of your datareaders in sequence.
- Execute all of the queries using a single datareader (e.g. "select * from a ; select * from b ; select * from c"). The datareader is able to process multiple resultsets (for many database products).
- Read each of your queries into a DataSet object then do whatever processing you need against the DataSet.
- Open multiple database connections.
Your choice depends upon what processing you are trying to achieve.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for replying! Initially what I did before is kind of as follows:
static void main()
{
....
func1();
....
}
static void func1()
{
....
string connectionstring = "...";
sqlconnection myconnection = new sqlconnection(connectionstring);
string sqlstr1 = "...";
sqlcommand mycommand = new sqlcommand(sqlstr1, myconnection);
myconnection.open()
sqldatareader myreader = mycommand.executereader();
string myvalue = "";
while (myreader.read()
{
myvalue = myreader["..."].tostring();
processThisValue(myvalue);
waitforresult(myvalue, connectionstring);
}
myreader.close();
myconnection.close();
}
static processThisValue(string myvalue)
{
..........
}
static void waitforresult(string inputvalue, string connectionstring)
{
sqlconnection myconnection2 = new sqlconnection(connectionstring);
string sqlstr2 = "select xxx from xxx when xxx=" + inputvalue;
sqlcommand mycommand2 = new sqlcommand(sqlstr2, myconnection2);
while (true)
{
myconnection2.open();
sqldatareader mydatareader2 = mycommand2.executereader();
string myvalue2 = "";
while (mydatareader2.read())
{
myvalue2 = mydatareader2["..."].toString();
}
if (myvalue2 == "...")
break;
}
mydatareader2.close();
myconnection2.close();
}
because of the cost for db connection is expensive, so I'm thinking to use one connection for 2 readers, etc. From your point of view, how should I simplify the above process? Thanks!

I would recommend that you try the simplest (easiest to code and maintain) way first, then optimise if you find that its performance is not good enough.
If your process is used a lot then you should find that the SQL-Server connection pooling will reduce the expense of database connections.
If your process is not used a lot then it is not worth the bother of optimising the code.

Hi All,
I am using MS Access 97.
Basically I am trying to create a query with a running totals column that displays a running total of data for all rows in the query.
Here is what I have:
tblClients
(Fields: ClientID, ClientName)
tblData
(Fields: ClientName, YTDGross, YTDNetCom, YTDNetInt, CSCost, OtherCost)
qryClientData
(Fields: tblData.ClientName, tblData.YTDGross, tblData.YTDCom, tblData.YTDNetInt, tblData.CSCost, tblData.OtherCost, YTDNetRev: (tblData.YTDNetCom+tblData.YTDNetInt), TotalAlloCost: (tblData.CSCost+tblData.OtherCost), TotalNetRev: ([YTDNetRev]-[TotalAlloCost])
So, I want to add a RunningTotal column in the qryClientData that will provide me with a running total of the TotalNetRev for all rows in the query.
If you can help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
If you have any questions (if my explaination was not specific enough), please let me know.
Thanks for your time
Nick

Have you tried using the SUM() Function?
Here is the syntax:
SELECT SUM(field) AS [expression]<br />
FROM table<br />
[WHERE ...]<br />
[GROUPBY ...]<br />
[HAVING ...]
Hope this helps

Yeah, I've tried it...the problem with the sum function is it groups the clients individually...so all I get when I use the sum function is a copy of the TotalNetRev field...because all its doing is summing the TotalNetRev field for each client..and since there is only one TotalNetRev field for each client, there is nothing to sum it against...the sum function would work if I was grouping the clients by account type (hedge fund, mutual fund)...it would give me a total TotalNetRev for each group....but I need a running total that encompassess all the clients...
Thanks for your help Mr. LaQuerre

Does my request not make any sense???
Is it not possible to do this with SQL???
Please let me know

How about something like:
select a.ClientID, a.ClientName, b.YTDGross, b.YTDNetCom,
b.YTDNetInt, b.CSCost, b.OtherCost,
(b.YTDNetCom + b.YTDNetInt) as YTDNetRev,
(b.CSCost + b.OtherCost) as TotalAlloCost,
(b.YTDNetRev - (b.CSCost + b.OtherCost)) as TotalNetRev,
sum(c.YTDNetRev - (c.CSCost + c.OtherCost)) as RunningTotal
from tblClients as a, tblData as b, tblData as c
where a.ClientName = b.ClientName
and a.ClientName >= c.ClientName
group by a.ClientName, a.ClientID, b.YTDGross, b.YTDNetCom,
b.YTDNetInt, b.CSCost, b.OtherCost
order by a.ClientName, a.ClientID
The running total is calculated by joining to the tblData table a second time. The join from table "a" to table "c" relies upon the fact that the query is sorted by ClientName.
I haven't tested this, so you may need to build the SQL statement up, testing each step of the way.
I hope that this is helpful.

Hi Andy
Thanks a lot for the help, but I am having trouble running the query properly.
Here is what I have:
SELECT a.CLIENTID, a.CLIENT, b.YTDGROSS, b.YTDNETCOM, b.YTDNETINT, b.CSGCOST, b.OTHERCOST, (b.YTDNETCOM+b.YTDNETINT) AS YTDNETREV, (b.CSGCOST+b.OTHERCOST) AS TOTALALLOCOST, (YTDNETREV-(b.CSGCOST+b.OTHERCOST)) AS TOTALNETREV, Sum(YTDNETREV-(c.CSGCOST+c.OTHERCOST)) AS RUNNINGTOTAL
FROM tblCLIENTS AS a, tblDATA AS b, tblDATA AS c
WHERE (([a].[CLIENT]=[b].[CLIENT] And [a].[CLIENT]>=[c].[CLIENT]))
GROUP BY a.CLIENTID, a.CLIENT, b.YTDGROSS, b.YTDNETCOM, b.YTDNETINT, b.CSGCOST, b.OTHERCOST;
I had to change:
(b.YTDNETREV - (b.CSGCOST + b.OTHERCOST)) as TOTALNETREV,
sum(c.YTDNETREV - (c.CSGCOST + c.OTHERCOST)) as RUNNINGTOTAL
TO
(YTDNETREV-(b.CSGCOST+b.OTHERCOST)) AS TOTALNETREV, Sum(YTDNETREV-(c.CSGCOST+c.OTHERCOST)) AS RUNNINGTOTAL
Also the field ClientName is actually named CLIENT
Access wouldn't recognize either b.YTDNETREV or c.YTDNETREV...so I had to change them both to YTDNETREV.
Now the query will run, but it doesn't capture any data.
Do you have anymore suggestions for me?
Again, thanks for your help!

Hi,
Can anybody point me towards info. regarding connection pooling specifically with the Oracle OleDb provider for .NET? I couldn't find anything about it in MSDN (although there's tons WRT SQLServer).
Cheers.
