Hi Tim,
Thanks lot for your help.
Can you give me some idea about that username and password.
Is that username and password same as windows username and password or we need to create specific for this. If so, how to do with that.
Regards,

The username and password can be whatever you want; there are defined on the SQLServer end. Create a user account, define the password, and grant access to the database.

There's no managed code way to do this. You've have to use the Win32 api to do it. The DataGridView is a bit problematic in this. You can find out more about it here.[^]

Hello all,
I need to take in today's date in parts (using datetime.now.day etc.) and output them. The problem is that if the date is less than ten it is shown as "9" instead of "09". Same with the time.
Is there an easy way to show it in the format i want or do i have to get each ones length and check if it needs adding to?
Any help will be appreciated.

Use Format Function
Ex : format(now.day ,"00")
Rajesh B --> A Poor Workman Blames His Tools <--
|
|
|
|
|
.... or now.Days.ToString("D2")

small correction
instead of "Days" put "Day"

Use a format string to get the parts of the date formatted the way that you want.
Examples:
Dim fullDate = theDate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd")
Dim year = theDate.ToString("yyyy")
Dim month = theDate.ToString("MM")
Dim day = theDate.ToString("dd")
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

You can use the following function:
#Region "Function GetDate - returns date / time according to format"
Public Function GetDate(ByVal MyFormat As String, Optional ByVal dt As Date = Nothing) As String
Try
If dt = Nothing Then
Return Now.ToString(MyFormat, DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)
Else
Return dt.ToString(MyFormat, DateTimeFormatInfo.InvariantInfo)
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "GetDate", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
Return ""
' MyFormat can be
' * d :08/17/2000
' * D :Thursday, August 17, 2000
' * f :Thursday, August 17, 2000 16:32
' * F :Thursday, August 17, 2000 16:32:32
' * g :08/17/2000 16:32
' * G :08/17/2000 16:32:32
' * m :August 17
' * r :Thu, 17 Aug 2000 23:32:32 GMT
' * s :2000-08-17T16:32:32
' * t :16:32
' * T :16:32:32
' * u :2000-08-17 23:32:32Z
' * U :Thursday, August 17, 2000 23:32:32
' * y :August, 2000
' * dddd, MMMM dd yyyy :Thursday, August 17 2000
' * ddd, MMM d "'"yy :Thu, Aug 17 '00
' * dddd, MMMM dd :Thursday, August 17
' * M/yy :8/00
' * dd-MM-yy :17-08-00
' *dd/MM/yyyy : 17/08/2000
End Function
#End Region
Comment:
You can improve and add another overloaded function that will get as parameter an enum parameter (containing the different formats)

Thanks again but i got it working using the following code to timestamp a file that I have processed:
File.Move(fileToMove, ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("NewPath").ToString() _
& Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(fileToMove) _
& " " & System.DateTime.Now.Day.ToString("D2") _
& System.DateTime.Now.Month.ToString("D2") _
& System.DateTime.Now.Year.ToString("D4") _
& "_" & System.DateTime.Now.Hour.ToString("D2") _
& System.DateTime.Now.Minute.ToString("D2") _
& System.DateTime.Now.Second.ToString("D2") _
& System.DateTime.Now.Millisecond.ToString("D3") _
& Path.GetExtension(fileToMove).ToString())

Hi,
this is not OK, you should call DateTime.Now only once, store it in a variable,
and use it over and over; the way you do it, you may get inconsistent information
(imagine what happens when the time goes from 01:59:59 to 02:00:00 WHILE executing
your very long statement!).
Furthermore, you could do it with the DateTime.ToString() method itself, as Guffa already
told you. That one even accepts some unrecognized characters in its format specifier,
so you could try DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyMMdd_HHmmssfff")
Note that I have put the year first, so alphabetical and chronological order is the same thing.

One more remark,
if the file generation code is in a loop, you may end up with duplicate filenames:
the milliseconds in DateTime.Now don't increment by one; they typically
get increased by 10, 16, or even 55 depending on your hardware and operating system.
If you want to know more about this, you may want to read my timers article.

Gosh - you're as bad as the first guy. His code is irrelevant. He doesn't have SQL Server installed.

Well, here's some info that would have been useful hours ago. Why mention SQL Server at all, if you're not using it ?
What is the connection string you're using ? Can you open the DB using Access on this machine ?

You will need to post the connection string you are using so that we can see if the problem lies there...
