I have been trying to get a connection string to work with an OLEDB provider. I beleive the format of the string I was given is not correct. Here is a copy of the code. The string starts with quation marks but does not end with same. If I add the quotation marks I get an error. I have checked the string and it does not show the password included.
Dim rstSource As Object
Dim rstTarget As Recordset
Dim Datapath As String
Dim DataSelector As String
Dim Connection As Object
ClearCustomers (True)
Set rstTarget = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("Profile", dbOpenDynaset)
My webhosting company lives on clusters - thus, the C: path does not exist. They have the string in the type: \iis621domains bnaglobal.com.
In the code of my eCommerce config.asp file, I tried 'connString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\iis621domains bnaglobal.comuser\_xxy yzzARZTU8934.mdb;" and I am getting: Error!
'C:domains bnaglobal.comuser\_xxyyzzARZTU893 4.mdb' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.
How can I fix this connString so my DB can work.
Here are the various options: ' Database Connection String. ' ' EXAMPLE : DSN-less connection for SQL Server ' connString="driver={SQL Server};server=SERVER_NAME;uid=USER_ID;pwd=PASSWOR D;database=DB_NAME" ' connString="provider=sqloledb;Data Source=SERVER_NAME;User Id=USER_ID;Password=PASSWORD;Initial Catalog=DB_NAME" ' ' EXAMPLE : DSN-less connection for MS Access ' connString="driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=C:inetpubwwwrootstore.mdb;" ' connString="provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:inetpubwwwrootstore.mdb;" ' ' EXAMPLE : DSN connection (all databases) ' connString="dsn=NAME_OF_YOUR_DSN" '--------------------------------------------------------------------- 'connString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:inetpubwwwrootstore.mdb;" 'connString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\iis621domains bnaglobal.comuser\_xxy yzzARZTU8934.mdb;" connString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:domains bnaglobal.comuser\_xxyyzzAR ZTU8934.mdb;"
how do i change a connection string from passthrough query; i have about 100 passtrhough querys with of course a connection to a databse (oracle). With one button in a form i want to be able to change the connection to another database (oracle).
I am using the following code in a Word macro. It seems to fall over on the 'ObjConn.Open strConn' line with the message [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
All I am needing is to access a MDB and pull out a couple of fields.
Code: Dim ObjConn As New ADODB.Connection Dim rs As Recordset Dim strConn As String Dim PNo As String PNo = Application.ActiveDocument.Name PNo = Left(PNo, Len(PNo) - 4) strConn = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & _ "D:ProjectTimesheets.mdb;" ObjConn.Open strConn rs.Open "SELECT * FROM tblProjects WHERE ProjSerialNo = " & PNo, ObjConn, adOpenKeyset, adLockPessimistic, adCmdText MsgBox rs.Fields("ProjTitle")
I notice when you hover the mouse over a linked table in the Database window, that a tool tip appears displaying the connection string for that table. Where is this connection string stored and how may it be recovered by other means ( VBA )?
I am trying to put together a vba adodb connection string to a remote server. It is the first time I am using adodb in this context. I can get msysobj.connect but how do I format that information into a connection object connection string?
I have a question about connection strings. Basically I have an access front end and an access back end. It works fine for now, but when it gets rolled out, I don't want to have to manually relink the tables every time. Is it possible to hard-code the database connection strings for all the tables used in the solution as the paths won't change once deployed?

I would like to use code to change the connection string for linked tables in my front end database. I have tried using the connection property of the TableDefs collection, this seems to work while I step through the code but does not change the existing connection property. Any suggestions?
Right Ok i hope i can get some help cause im absolutely stumped.. i cant get my login page to work since moving it from my PWS(iis on xp) DSN connection to a 24/7 server on the net with DSNless connection here is the code for the include file "conntopwd.asp" http://www.pritchardwebdesign.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/conntopwd.txt the username and path has been changed slightly for security purposes, and the code for the login page which attempts to access the database is here http://www.pritchardwebdesign.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/login.txt the connection has been tested by one of the tech support guys at brinkster and he told me it was ok, the problem was the way that the data is called from the data base is wrong .. The tech support guy said that it was this line that was causing the problem.. MM_rsUser.ActiveConnection = MM_conntopwd_STRING Any help would be much appreciated as im stuck for now..
I was looking for some help. I am trying to setup a table with a field for web address. People are entering www.website.com etc however I need them to make sure it starts with http:// Is their any way I can put validation on the field to make sure that this is entered? Or maybe I could use an input mask?
I have a data base that I use ADO primarly to connect to the backend access database. Each time I query a table I create a new connection and then kill the connection after I'm done with it. Should I be creating a global connection and leave open the entire time the program is open, or should I be killing the connection each time?
I simply want to create a connection to an Access db, and run an execute an SQL statement. I have only used RecordSets in the past, so this ADO.NET is completely new to me.
Can someone give me a sample code to execute an SQL statement, and take the result and assign it to a string variable?
I can bind my results to a DataGrid, but if I need it in a string, what good does that do me???
Also, I am only familiar with VB, but if someone has to post it in C#, I'm sure I can figure it out! I appreciate any help.
hi everyone; I'm trying to make an ADO connection to my local database named "dbTest.mdb". Here is the code I'm writing in my editor:
Code: <body> <% Set CN =server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") CN.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:InetpubwwwrootNew FolderdatadbTest.mdb;Persist Security Info=False" Set RS =server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") Set RS.ActiveConnection = CN RS.Source = "select * from tblTest" RS.CursorLocation = adUseServer RS.CursorType = adOpenKeyset RS.LockType = adLockOptimistic RS.Open response.Write(RS.fields(0)) RS.close Set RS=Nothing %> </body>
and this error comes up in my browser:
Code: Error Type: ADODB.Recordset (0x800A0BB9) Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in conflict with one another. whats the problem with my code???!!
Rookie Alert ! I am trying to incorporate simple Access database to web page. In page one, I use Database Results Wizard to display records in database. I pass parameter (last name) via hyperlink to second web page to view complete record. I always get no records found. When I asked tech support, they sent me this:
We do not have registered DSN's on the host server. You will need to use a DSN-less connection string using an absolute path to the file. The path to your account is c:accountsusername and from there you would add the path to the db within your home directory, I.E. -
I have seen other references to this and I have tried what they said with no luck. Where in the page code would I put this? I am using Frontpage 2003. Any suggestions would be helpful or a working example would be nice.
I will create an Access application as a Front end application. The matter is that the users will need to update some data from Internet where there is a MySql server. I thought in creating a local DSN to connect to that MySql server. Is it right ? I already created it but... I dont know the code to connect it from Access. Could you please help me with the code to write in Access ? Im a new with it. sorry. Or you can send me an example of it in an Access database to: osvaldo@ord.com.ar
I am creating an Access database that will be used by multiple users. This database will be on the network and will be the front end of an oracle database connected to it via ODBC. Do I have to set up the ODBC to oracle only on the machine that hold the database on the network or do I have to set up an ODBC on each user's machine?
i'm create a aplication in ms access 2000 developer edition. this app comunicate with sql 2000.
we have problem with slow connection provided by access. in headquater wher people use access app it working quickly. sql 2000 is localted at headquarter too. but if i run app in warehouse it working very slowly.
VPN connection doesn't slow. but access can't use all vpn connection capacity but only 1/5 from this capacity?
how can i do something that acces can use all capacity that i have?
example: link is 512 kbps but access use only 100kbps and work very slowly.
I have a small access database that my users keep open all day long. Access 2000.
I have one primary version of the DB on the network. No one uses it. I have another file on the network that has linked tables to the primary db. I copy a version of this DB to each workstation.
So each user has a full blown DB on their desktop with linked tables back to the main DB. Is this a good set up or are there any issues doing this? What is the best set up for multiple users across the network? Thanks.
one another database have started showing a new error "the database has been placed in state by user 'Admin' on machine 'XXXXXX' that prevents it from being opened."
I read some of the articles on google and find out tht database splitting is solution for this. Now my question is if after splitting i keep the front end and back end at the same location does it gonna effct some how? i mean even after spliting if users use the same copy of database as fromt end. Does it make some sense.
