The system database is missing or opened exclusively another user." What is really puzzling is that the local database has nothing to do with the remote one (which may be located on a network drive that may be disconnected by removing the network cable) and yet it doesn't let me open it.
In my code I'm using DAO methods to open the database in non-exclusive mode such as:
Dim db as Databasedb = OpenDatabase("",False,False,";DATABASE='C:\Work\MyProject\local.mdb'; PWD='passcode'")
This happens running on a Windows NT 4.0 Workstation.. does naybody have any ideas what might be causing this and if you do.. how can I get around it?
Where is the system database located? This maybe causing the problem, if it’s on a network share and there is a loss of network connectivity. A quick search of the MSDN indicates this error code is security – system db related.
You might try specifying a local system database before opening the database.

Thanks for the reply! Actually, I did search MSDN for this error but that didn't clear it anymore.
Your statement is intresting though:
sfdougl wrote: Where is the system database located? This maybe causing the problem, if it’s on a network share and there is a loss of network connectivity
yet I don't understand why it would be a problem: The system database thata I'm using is the default that access is using, that is located in C:\Windows\System32\system.mdw... which is not on a network share... at least is shouldn't be... it's local, on my hard drive. It's really weired.
So, if the system.mdw is in my windows folder... any ideas why I may be getting that 3028 error? (The file is there, it's not read only.. it doesn't appear to be opened by anybody... and MS Access itself is able to open the database without yelding an error) Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!!!

I know ADO fairly well and have forgotten just about everything related to DAO so not sure I can be of much help, but here goes.
Are you using Access permissions? Or just a plain simple database password?
I think the problem my be related to how your opening a connection to the db. Check out this MSDN link for opening a connection to the db. As memory servers if you don’t open the db correctly you will get flaky behavior.

I'll check it out... Thanks!
I figured it must be related to the open database process since it's the first db-related operation in my code and it fails. The question remains: How can I tell VB to create a workspace for me and specify the fisical location of the .mdw file... guess I'll have to dig deeper!
Thanks again!

I'm programming a windows form, and part of it is getting data from a SQL database, organizing it, and then displaying it. Short version of my question: How do I "refresh" the datagrid, dataview, or datatable such that changes to the datatable will be reflected in the datagridview that the user sees?
Long question:
He're's a dumbed down version of my code, with really obvious function names;
form_onLoad()
{
CrazyDataSet myDataSet;
DataView myView;
FillDataSetFromSQL();
FillCustomTable(); //the one that's going to be displayed.
myView = new DataView(myDataSet.ViewTable);
myView.rowFilter = someFilter();
myDataGridView.DataSource = myView;
}
buttonAddRow_onClick
{
AddRowToDataTable(row)
////HERE!!!
}
What do I do ^ there to have the new row show up in the datagridview? I know the dgv has refresh(), but the dataView is still unchanged, even though the datatable is not. Any suggestions? I googled and found dataView.dataBind, but it was from an article that was 3 years old and for the old DataGrid class.

private void RefreshGrid()
{
if (this.dataGridAllocation != null && this.dataTable != null)
{
CurrencyManager currencyManager = (CurrencyManager) this.dataGrid.BindingContext[this.dataTable];
if (currencyManager != null)
{
currencyManager.Refresh();
}
}
}
You can also do
datatable.AcceptChanges()
dataGrid.Refresh()

Hi Friend,

ADO_FIXED_LENGTH_ENTRY(5,ADODB::adBoolean,_rsFlag,_rsFlagStatus,FALSE)
BOOL rsFlag;
ULONG rsFlagStatus;
}
can you please help me in getting proper boolean value from store procedure.
Thanks

I have been given a Product table whoes all column types are varchar(8000)
One of the column is Price and other is DecimalPosition. Price column includes price without any decimal place and the data in DecimlaPosition column determins where the decimal should be placed.
So for instance, if the Price column includes '1000' and DecimalPosision includes '2' >> then it means that the actual price for this product is '10.00' and NOT '1000'. Similarly, if the DecimalPosision includes '3' >> then it means that the actual price for this product is '1.000' and NOT '1000'
My question is that when I am getting the price for a product from this table, how can I get the price in the correct format, e..g like '10.00' and not '1000'
Should I use SQL statements to convert 1000 into 10.00 or should I use some sort of programming logic to convert 1000 into 10.00.
kind regards

You can do it at both places. But its better to do this is a VIEW in the database. This way you avoid bugs. Hope this helps.
CREATE TABLE dbo.ctm
(
Precision varchar(32) NULL,
Val varchar(20) NULL
)
Insert ctm Values('1234567', '1')
Insert ctm Values('1234', '2')
Insert ctm Values('123456', '3')
Insert ctm Values('123456789', '4')
select convert (float,Val)/ POWER(10,convert (float,Precision)) from ctm
Use POW instead of POWER if you are not using sybase.

I have an access table that has a column called "ItemLink" and is of the type "Hyperlink." When I query this table and select this field, I get the display text of the hyperlink and not the url. How do I get the URL from this field in a query?

Hi,
Does anyone knows how to remove the additional row that appeared at the end of the datagrid? I knew I can do that by setting the datagrid to read-only. But that is not my intention. I need to edit the cell in the datagrid. That's why I cannot set it to read-only.
Thanks,
kk

Hi,
Thanks for replying. I've not tried to run your code snippet. I've a question on your code snippet that I'm not too sure (shown below). Pardon me as I'm a novice.
// Attach dataset's DefaultView to the datagrid control
dataGrid1.DataSource = dataSet.Tables["customers"];
//no adding of new rows thru dataview...
CurrencyManager cm = (CurrencyManager)this.BindingContextdataGrid1.DataSource, dataGrid1.DataMember];
((DataView)cm.List).AllowNew = false;
What's a CurrencyManager? What's the purpose of obtaining the CurrencyManager? Can I do this(shown below) instead?
DataView dv = dataSet.Tables["customers"].defaultview;
dv.AllowNew = false;
dataGrid1.DataSource = dv;
Thanks

Yes you can.
But this assumes that only a DataTable or DataView is binded to the DataGrid.
Actually any object implementing IBindingList interface can have the functionality of AddNew, producing a new row you are trying to hide. CurrencyManager is a more generic class deriving from
BindingManagerBase.
Search MSDN, you will get a bunch of information..

ok. thanks.

Are you using a .net datagrid? Here is the c# code to hide a column by the index:
myGrid.Columns[0].Visible = true;

So your question is about building a database to keep track of this floorspace ?
Or are you the dumbest spammer in history ?

I beg to differ. Your behaviour is not delightful, it's annoying.

While designing my database, I came across a situation where there are multiple candidate keys. So I have assigned one of them as the primary key. But I need to add UNIQUE constraint to the remaining candidate key.
I am using MSDE and Visual Studio.Net 2003 Professional Edition. Is there a way to specifiy such a constraint using the IDE?
