Visual Basic :: Problems Updating MS Access Database

Updating Access Database
Hi

Making the conversion from VB6 to VB.NET has been extremely difficult for me. Everytime I think that I have things working right, something else appears. Here's the latest.

My code to update a database is (I thought) very simple as shown here

dataAdapter.Update(dataSet,"Table")

Unfortunately, this results in an error message that reads "Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed a DataRow collection with modified rows."

I have tried to find this message in Microsoft's KB and in the help files but can't and hove no clue as to the cause. My code is identical to the code in the tutorial I am working with.

Can anyone help a very frustrated novice?

Updating Access Database Using VB6
Hi,

I have a quite confusing question. I am writing a Visual Basic 6.0 program that interacts with two databases. One is an existing database created by someone else. This database has Access forms for the user to fill out. One of the fields on these forms is a lookup text field. In my program, I am trying to update this field. However, it will not allow me to update this field because it is a lookup text field. Is there any possible way around this?

Thanks!

Updating Access Database From Web!
I have a large Access database (price-catalog) on-line. At the moment I update it by using the web-query in MS Excel. I have included these queries to my self made VB macro that acquires the data from 5 different web sites, cleans the data and compines them to one large database. Then I convert it to Access DB and upload it to my site. (users can now search the database to find the lowest price)
This is pretty complicated task to do each day. So, I was wondering that is it possible to automate this process?
Is it possible to write a script that does this work for me (to schedule the update, executed at nights) so that I don't have to do anything? Just check that the process has been done right.

Or can you suggest some other ways to do this. My site works like Pricesearch.com.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Access Database Updating SLOW
HI... Im using VB6 with Crystal Reports9. I seem to have a problem when it comes to displaying the Information in a Table on my Report. Before i load the report, i first Populate my Database Table with Records, and then the report will use this Table's Records to display the information on the screen using the report viewer.

My Problem is: The last few records of the table is not displayed, because when the report is loaded, the records arent updated to the Table yet, when i look inside the table it;s not their, only about 2s after the update, then the reports will show. So it looks like when i add a record and close my database Table, it takes about 2s before the last few records are visable, only after 2s when i load the report, then all the data shows. Here is my connectionstring info:

Code:
Dim sConn as stirng
dim mConnection as new ADODB.Connection

'Create The Connection String
sConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & App.Path & "Database.mdb" & ";Persist Security Info=False"
mConnection.Open sConn

This is how i add a record to the table.As you can see i do close the connection to the table, but the data is only visable inside the table after a few seconds, and this is not good, because the report is instantly loaded after this code is code, by then the records arent visable yet.

Code:
Private Sub SaveOtherFieldsToDatabase()
Dim SubReportOtherFieldsTable As New ADODB.Recordset

'Calculate the Net Salary that must be shown at the bottom of the Salary Report
dbSalaryTotal = (dbTripsTotal + dbYardworkTotal) - (dbDeductionsTotal + dbInsurance)

With SubReportOtherFieldsTable

.Open "SELECT * FROM SubReport_Otherfields", mConnection, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdText
.AddNew

!fldTotalSalary = dbSalaryTotal
!fldInsuranceAmount = dbInsurance
!fldDateFROM = DateFROM
!fldDateTO = DateTO

.Update
.Close

Set SubReportOtherFieldsTable = Nothing

End With

End Sub

This is code i use in my form_load event to show my report

Code:
'*** Set and LOAD THE REPORT ***
Set Report = New EmployeeSalaryReport
Report.DiscardSavedData
Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass
CRViewer91.ReportSource = Report
CRViewer91.ViewReport
Screen.MousePointer = vbDefault
CRViewer91.Zoom (87)

Searching And Updating Database Access
Hey there,

I'm not too sure on how to go about this i would like to

1) Search the database
2) if a matching computername is found in the database
3) overwrite the computername with a new info

Thus far my codes are as such

Rs.Find "PC"

Do While Rs.EOF <> True
Debug.Print "PC Name: "; Rs!PC
Count = Count + 1
Mark = Rs.Bookmark
Rs.Find "PC", 1, adSearchForward, Mark
Loop

How do i continue from here

thank you very much
cheers!

Vb Error Updating With Access Database
Good Afternoon.

I am posting this again. Usually I receive a response very quick, but since there were 2 responses due to me posting on the wrong site, maybe it got overlooked. I would really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

I get error "3251" (Object or provider is not capable of performing requested operation).

I am able to update Access table when I read sequentially thru the file;

sample code:

strSql = "Abends"

rstAbends.Open strSql, strConn1, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable

intFlag = 0

Do Until rstAbends.EOF Or intFlag = 1
If rstAbends!JesNumber = txtJesNum.Text Then

If (Len(txtTurnAround.Text) > 0) And
rstAbends!turnaroundaction <>
UCase(txtTurnAround.Text) Then
rstAbends!turnaroundaction =UCase (txtTurnAround.Text)
End If
intFlag = 1

rstAbends.Update

However, when I use the SQL statement to retrieve the record, (which is the correct way to do it since I know the key value!), I get the above mentioned error, which will not even allow me to perform an assignment statement to the field. strjesnumber does have a value.

rstAbends.Open strSql, strConn1, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable

Set rstAbends = olah_cndb.Execute("Select * from ABENDS WHERE jesnumber = '" & strjesnumber & "'")

'If Not IsNull(txtTurnAround.Text) Then
If (Len(txtTurnAround.Text) > 0) And rstAbends!turnaroundaction <> UCase(txtTurnAround.Text) Then
rstAbends!turnaroundaction = UCase(txtTurnAround.Text)
End If

rstAbends.Update

Thanks in advance

Problem Updating Access Database
Morning,

Have a problem where i am trying to update some tables in access from vb. What it does is Deletes thecontents of a table (WORKS), imports the contents of a csv file( DOESNT WORK SAYS THAT THE TABLE ALREADY EXISTS) and then moves the data from the import table to the actual table it needs to be in(WORKS). What i need to do is to tell it to overwrite the table in the second query! The code is as follows......

Private Sub Form_Load()

Dim cmd As String
Dim sqldelete As String
Dim sqlmove As String
Dim sqlimport As String
Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim database As String

Adodc1.Visible = False

sqldelete = "DELETE IMPORT.[Call start], IMPORT.[Call duration], IMPORT.[Ring duration], IMPORT.Caller, IMPORT.Direction, IMPORT.Called_number, IMPORT.Dialled_number, IMPORT.Account, IMPORT.Is_Internal, IMPORT.[Call ID], IMPORT.Continuation, IMPORT.Party1Device, IMPORT.Party1Name, IMPORT.Party2Device, IMPORT.Party2Name, IMPORT.Hold_Time, IMPORT.Park_Time FROM IMPORT;"
sqlmove = "INSERT INTO SMDR ( [Call start], [Call duration], [Ring duration], Caller, Direction, Called_number, Dialled_number, Account, Is_Internal, Continuation, Party1Device, Party1Name, Party2Device, Party2Name, Hold_Time, Park_Time )SELECT IMPORT.[Call start], IMPORT.[Call duration], IMPORT.[Ring duration], IMPORT.Caller, IMPORT.Direction, IMPORT.Called_number, IMPORT.Dialled_number, IMPORT.Account, IMPORT.Is_Internal, IMPORT.Continuation, IMPORT.Party1Device, IMPORT.Party1Name, IMPORT.Party2Device, IMPORT.Party2Name, IMPORT.Hold_Time, IMPORT.Park_Time FROM IMPORT;"
sqlimport = "SELECT * " & "INTO [IMPORT] " & "FROM [Text;database=C:Program FilesAvayaIP OfficeCCCDeltaServerSMDR_Output].[SMDR.csv]"

'create the connection
cmd = "provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;" & "data source=" & "c:calllogger2002.mdb"

'Establish the connection
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
    With cn
        .ConnectionString = cmd
        .Open
    End With
'Ammend the records
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    With rs
        .Open sqldelete, cn
        .Open sqlimport, cn ' This is the line that doesnt work!!
        .Open splmove, cn
    End With
Set rs = Nothing

cn.Close

Set cn = Nothing

End Sub

Any help anyone can offer will be greatly appreciated as this is the very last piece of the puzzle.

Thanks

Updating Single Record In MS Access Database
I have a form that loads records from a database and you can scroll through them. If you come upon a record that does not have a UserID filled in, I have coded the below method to create the user id and for it to populate the text field on the form with the new user id.

My problem is that I also want to update the record with the new userid, but when I try to do this i am getting an exception saying "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

I'm not sure what I have done wrong, so any suggestions would be appreciated!

**Note
As soon as adapter1.UpdateCommand.CommandText = command1 is processed the exception is caught and it appears that command is nothing...??????

Code:

        firstName = objDataView.Item(i)("FirstName")
        LastName = objDataView.Item(i)("LastName")
        phoneExtension = objDataView.Item(i)("Extension")

        makeUserID = firstName.Substring(0, 1) + LastName.Substring(0, 1) + phoneExtension

        txtUserID.Text = makeUserID

        Dim connection1 As OleDb.OleDbConnection
        connection1 = New OleDb.OleDbConnection("Jet OLEDB:Global Partial Bulk Ops=2;Jet OLEDB:Registry Path=;Jet OLEDB: Database L" & _

Some Added Records Not Showing When Updating An Access Database
Ok, Here's the Skinny...

I am writing an application that pulls a list of names off of a
server, it runs a command prompt with a batch file, and outputs
to a text file. (There is an erlier post I put on here last week
regarding that portion of it.)

The problem is that when VB reads through the file and adds the
records, it appears to skip some of the records in the begginning
(appearing to be a random amount) I pasted the code below,
any ideas?

below is the code that creates the file

VB Code:
Private Sub Timer2_Timer() Dim ListCMD Dim BatchFile Dim ListLoc Dim lPid As Long Dim lHnd As Long Dim lRet As Long Timer2.Enabled = False BatchFile = App.Path & "atch.bat" ListLoc = App.Path & "list.txt" ListCMD = "c:" & vbNewLine & "cd " & vbNewLine & "cd " & App.Path & vbNewLine & "telalertc.exe -host jorma -list destinations > list.txt" Open BatchFile For Append As #1 Print #1, ListCMD Close #1 BatchFile = "cmd.exe /c " & Chr(34) & BatchFile & Chr(34) lPid = Shell(BatchFile, vbHide) If lPid <> 0 Then lHnd = OpenProcess(SYNCHRONIZE, 0, lPid) If lHnd <> 0 Then lRet = WaitForSingleObject(lHnd, dwMilliseconds) CloseHandle (lHnd) Timer3.Interval = 3000 Timer3.Enabled = True End If End If End Sub

Below is the code that reads the file

VB Code:
Sub ReloadFullList() Dim matrixdb As Database Dim SQLcmd Dim ListFile Dim BatchFile Dim log Set matrixdb = OpenDatabase(Form1.MatrixDBLocation) ListFile = App.Path & "list.txt" BatchFile = App.Path & "atch.bat" With Form1.Adodc2 .ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & Form1.MatrixDBLocation & ";Mode=ReadWrite;Persist Security Info=False" .RecordSource = "SELECT * from tblPagers" .Refresh End With SQLcmd = "DELETE * from tblpagers" WriteSQLLog (SQLcmd) matrixdb.Execute SQLcmd Open ListFile For Input As #1 Do Until EOF(1) Line Input #1, log If InStr(1, log, "error", vbTextCompare) Then GoTo ConnectError Exit Sub Else: End If Loop Close #1 Open ListFile For Input As #1 Line Input #1, log Line Input #1, log Do Until EOF(1) Line Input #1, log log = Mid(log, 2, Len(log) - 2) With Form1.Adodc2.Recordset .AddNew !pagers = log .Update End With Loop Form1.Adodc2.Recordset.MoveFirst Close #1 Form1.List1.Clear Do Until Form1.Adodc2.Recordset.EOF = True Form1.List1.AddItem Form1.DataGrid2.Text Form1.Adodc2.Recordset.MoveNext Loop Form1.Adodc2.Recordset.MoveFirst Kill BatchFile Kill ListFile MsgBox "Jorma Full List Update Complete, Dont Forget to Push to Server When done.", vbOKOnly + vbInformation, "Jorma List Update Complete" Unload Form4Exit SubConnectError: Close #1 MsgBox "There was an error connecting to Jorma to retreieve the full list, please try again later." & vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "If the problem persists, please contact your System Administrator", vbOKOnly + vbInformation, "Potential Jorma Issue" Unload Form4 Kill BatchFile Kill ListFileEnd Sub

The part where it skips two lines is the header for "connecting to,
pulling list" blah blah, I dont need that in the database, all I need
is the names.

The text file is complete, but the names in the database seem to
start at a different part of the list, sometimes 3 names down,
sometimes 20 names down... it makes absolutely no sense to
me, I even set up a timer to have it wait 3 seconds before it
reads the list, but that doesnt seem to make a difference either!!
Any suggestions would be greatly apperciated

Updating An Access Table With A Table From Another Database
I'm trying to update a table using Access 97 and VB5 with an identical table in another database that contains changes- changes within the records, addtions & deletions of records. The update works as longs as there were no deletions or additions. The old table can't be replaced because of existing relationships. If the old table is deleted other information in different tables will also be deleted. Database replication is really not an option. Thanks.

Updating Database
I just started with programming a month or so ago, so I'm still very new to all of this. Here is my problem.

I have problems linking my database to my program. The database was created using Acess. I have 4 Ado controls on my form, one for the client table, one for the supplier table, one for the product table and one for the transaction table in my database. I can allready add or edit things in the client, supplier and product table, but I'm having problems with the transaction one. On the form I have a textbox (txtAmount) where I enter the amount of the product I'm buying or selling. Then there's two command buttons (cmdBuy and cmdSell) I can choose from depending if I'm buying or selling something. Just below that I've added another textbox (txtBalance) where it shows my current balance. Then in the click event of the two command buttons I've added something like this:

(I dimmed intBalance as an integer)

intBalance = intBalance + txtAmount.Text
txtBalance = intBalance

Up till here everything works fine, the balance gets updated on my form whenever I buy or sell something, but I want to save the balance that gets displayed in txtBalance to my database. I have a adodc control on my form called dcTransactions which is linked to my Transaction table in my database. One of the fields in the transaction table is balance and that's where I want to save the balance that gets displayed in txtBalance field. I tried using dcTransactions.recordset.update, but it doesn't work.

I want to save other things to my database as well, like the history of the clients and suppliers (what they bought or sold to me and for how much), but I'll probably be able to figure that out when I get the Balance working.

This is just for a project for college so please keep it very simple. Any kind of help will be much appreciated.

Updating Database
Hello World

Hi, Its me again. I have a local database which serves 4-6 computers. Every time there are changes with the table (e.g. modified by computer 1). How can I update the database automatically without clicking the Refresh button? All we know that every time we view all the list we need to open the connection and then close it again, right? So, how can I handle this problem? Please help. Urgent. Thanks

Updating To A Database.
What are the ado commands to update to a database, rather than adding or deleting a record? For instance, in a program that I'm writing, there is occasionally an error when not all the values have been written to the database, or they have not been written correctly and i'd just like to update the record.

The book that I have says that you can use adodc1.recordset.edit , but this causes an error saying that it's an invalid command. Is there another command that I need to use?

Thanks,
Ryan

Updating Database Value

Updating A Database
Hi all,

I am trying to update a database.
Basically I want to remove old entries and replace them.
How do I read entries from the database but also delete the unwanted as I go?
To delete the superseded entries I’m guessing I open two files at once, one for input and one for output, reading from one to the other and only writing if the details aren’t old.
And then copy the new file over the old and delete the temporary one.
And then I need to open the file for append with new entries. Am I right in saying this or is there an easier/better way??

when tblempl Elrsnc field is 'Elrsnc1', tblExit will add '1' to the fields of 'RSNCODE1' and '0' to the rest of the fields RSNCODE(2-11)

Using the above logic, I have no problem inserting my data into database but when I try to do update. I met with several problems with the Update SQL statement. I attach part of my work below can someone enlighten me as to whats is wrong with my Update SQl? Thanks a lot

Updating A Database
I am using a data control to manipulate an Access database. I only want the database to update when the user requests it to.

The problem is that if the user types anything when a record is displayed, the database updates automatically. Do I have to create two sets of display objects to stop this from happening or is there a better way?

Updating A Database
I have this DBgrid that retrieves records from the database based on a certain criteria.The question is, when a retrieved record is selected either by double clicking on it or clicking a command button(Select), a form that was used to save changes must appear for a user to update.

Can someone please tell me the code that I can use to achieve this.

Thanks.

Updating Database
I have a form that has a datacombo box on it and I have it setup with a list from a different table then the rest of the form I have it working and populating. What I need is when I make my selection I need the column in the main table to be updated with this new selection. Also when I go to the next record I need that field to be blank or contain the selection that has already been made. So what I need is the selection to be put in the correct column and stay there unless it is changed. below is the code used to populate the datacombobox.

Private Sub Populatecombobox1()

'Dim rscb As New Recordset
'On Error GoTo errorHandler
'Set rscb = New Recordset
'rscb.Open "Select TeamMember_ID,FName&' '&LName as UName from Team order by FName", conn, adOpenDynamic, adLockReadOnly

If rscb.RecordCount > 0 Then

With DataCombo1(0)
.Text = rscb!FName
Set .RowSource = rscb
.DataMember = "Test"
.DataField = "Analysis_Owner"
.ListField = "FName"

End With
rscb.MoveFirst
End If
Set rscb = Nothing

End Sub

Thanks in advance for any help.

hello...im writing a program in VB.. im trying to update a record in one of the tables in my database but instead of updating it is inserting....what can the problem be?? thanks

Updating Database
Hello,
I am doing a project with VB 6.0 as the front end and Microsoft Access as the backend
I have a database table named Table_Of_Weightage which has two fields

Rem_Abbr Rem_Weightage
act-r 0
bor 0
Acal 0

here as you can see the values in the second field are set to 0.
This is at the start of the project.
What i am supposed to do is search for a particular med in this table then set the value for it's Rem_Weightage.
First i am facing a problem in finding the medicine in the database using ADODB
i have used a find method of the recordset.
this is the code:
For counter1 = 0 To totmed Step 1
adoRecWeight.MoveFirst
adoRecWeight.Find "Rem_Abbr='" & Trim(charMed(counter1)) & "'"
adoRecWeight!Rem_Weight = adoRecWeight!Rem_Weight + GradeValue

Call adoRecWeight.Save
Next counter1
Here i am not able to update the Table_Of_Weighatage after finding a medicine.

I tried another code:
For counter1 = 0 To totmed Step 1
adoRecWeight.MoveFirst
adoConnHomeo.Execute "UPDATE Table_Of_Weightage SET Rem_Weight=Rem_Weight+ 'GradeValue' WHERE (Rem_Abbr='charMed(counter1)')"
Call adoRecWeight.Save
Next counter1

Third and last

For counter1 = 0 To totmed Step 1
adoRecWeight.MoveFirst
adoConnHomeo.Execute "UPDATE Table_Of_Weightage SET Rem_Weight=Rem_Weight+ GradeValue WHERE Rem_Abbr='" & "charMed(counter1)" & "'",ad0RecWeight
adoRecWeight.save
next counter1

still my database is not getting updated.
Note GradeValue=1 or 2 or 3 or 4 based on the select case condition

Am i going wrong in the syntax of update statement?
of i am not putting the statements in an appropriate order?
How do i solve this error?
PLease get back as soon as possible.

Updating An SQL Database With Vb6

Somebody please help. I want to update a table in sql database using vb6. The field is money data type, but its giving me an error "Disallowed implicit conversion from datatype varchar to money". How do I code.

Thanks

Updating A Database
i have a recordset which is populated by an sql query similar "select
customer.custnum,customer lname+customer.fname as
name,loans.loannum,loans.writeoffdate from customer,loans where
customer.custnum=loans.custnum". notice the lname+fname field. when i
update writeoffdate with a value, the new value never gets written back to
the database. if i just query "select * from loans", it does. is a
recordset populated by a query from multiple tables, or virtual fields (
lname+fname) not updatable? i have the cursor type set to adopenkeyset, so
that should be fine.

Updating Database
I'm having problems updating my database from information that is changed in the program. I pass aProduct as Product to an update method in my ProductDA class. I Then use this code in the update method:

Public Shared Sub Update(ByVal aProduct As Product)
        strPartNumber = aProduct.GetPartNumber
        strPartType = aProduct.GetPartType
        strProductName = aProduct.GetProductName
        strSupplier = aProduct.GetSupplier
        strDescription = aProduct.GetDescription
        QtyOnHand = aProduct.GetQtyOnHand

        Dim sqlUpdate As String = "UPDATE Products SET PartNumber = '" & strPartNumber & "', " & _
          "PartType = '" & strPartType & "', ProductName = '" & strProductName & "', ProductDescription = '" & strDescription & "', QtyOnHand = '" & QtyOnHand & "', Supplier = '" & strSupplier & "' " & _
            "WHERE ProductName = '" & strProductName & "'"
        Dim adpProduct As New OleDbDataAdapter
        Try
            'aConnection = ProductConnect.Initialize()
            'Product.Initialize(aConnection)
            Dim p As Product = Product.Find(strProductName)
            adpProduct.UpdateCommand = New OleDbCommand(sqlUpdate)
            adpProduct.UpdateCommand.Connection = aConnection
            adpProduct.UpdateCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
        Catch e As Exception
            Console.WriteLine(e.ToString)
        End Try
    End Sub

No update takes place after the update method runs. I think my sql statement is fine because i can do a query in Access with the same SQL and it works fine. I just dont know where the problem might be coming from. All suggestions are welcome

Updating Old Database (*.mdb) To New One
Hello fellow coders!

I'm having this kind of issue. User has old database at his computer. When he uses live update, he retrieves a new database from my server.

The problem here is that how i can copy old recordsets to new database? New database could contain new fields that old database doesn't have. And some fields could be different format in new one, like name could be memo not text as in old one.

I tryed to use search but didn't find any answers.

If anyone has example or some useful hints, it would be great!

Best regards,
Ilkka T.

Please help! I am a beginner with VB and need to update a DAO/Access 97 table with the old table data. The problem is that the new table has extra fields that's not in the old table.

How can i check each field from the new table to see if the same field exist in the old table so that i can import the data if it exist or add a default value if the field does not exist.

Any help please, i'm desperate!!!

When I set a record in my database equal to some value why does it reflect that value whether or not I "update" the recordset. Can someone please shed some light as to what an update actually does???
