You can access tables from another MS-Access databasae by using Linked Tables.
Go to the File Menu, Get External data, Link Tables. Once you have linked the "remote" tables you can use them in your query builder just like any other table. This should not be a problem if the database has a password or not.

Hello,
In VB.NET,
How to get the Owner / Creator of a document/file ?
I am doing a tool for my company which scan all the files with specified type (.doc, .xls,etc...) and store all information in a SQLite database.
I want to search the files with criteria as keywords, modification date, creation date, OWNER of the file.
How to ?
Best regards

Try this
Dim ofile As New System.IO.FileInfo("D:\sam.txt")
If ofile.Exists = True Then
Label1.Text = "Create Time: " & ofile.CreationTime & vbNewLine
Label1.Text = Label1.Text & "Length: " & ofile.Length.ToString + " bytes" & vbNewLine
Label1.Text = Label1.Text & "Last Access Date: " & ofile.LastAccessTime & vbNewLine
Label1.Text = Label1.Text & "Read only: " & ofile.IsReadOnly & vbNewLine
Label1.Text = Label1.Text & "Last Write Date: " & ofile.LastWriteTime & vbNewLine
Else
Label1.Text = "File Not Found"
End If

Thanks,
but the AIM of the question is about the OWNER (security point of view) which has created or modified the file....
Best regards

Use ManagementBaseObject class. This can help you to get the owner details.

Hello All,
I use VB .Net forms and i have a requirement as follows.
In a form, a click of a button should be automated through windows schduler and one more button would be placed in the form for other activities.
Basically, in a single exe we would be performing two activiites, one as a daily routine through windows scheduler (one button) and other is a manual process (Button that would be visible to the end users)
Hope i am not confusing 
Let me know how to take this forward.
Thanks.

I doubt windows scheduler can click any button at all. Why not write it as a console app and use command line parameters?

The Scheduler cannot click buttons. Your code has to be rewritten to accept command line parameters, which the Schedular CAN use, to tell your app what to do.
Also, don't put actual work methods in the button Click handlers. Move that code to other methods that can be called from your command line handler or from the Click handlers or from just about anywhere else you're going to need to cal that code from.

Ditto to Dave. When the app is starting up, check the command line args that are being sent in. Parse the args and then run the appropriate methods.
This is easy to test. Go to the project --> debug tab. Enter your args in the command line args textbox.
Cheers.

i have an MS Access Database table,which i have connected with the VB.net proj
Troubleshooting Exceptions: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException
An OleDbException exception is generated when a warning or error is returned by an OLE DB data source.
Associated Tips
Verify that you are connecting with valid credentials.
Make sure that the credentials you are supplying are valid. For more information, see OleDbErrorCollection.
Verify that the server name is correct and that the server is running.
Make sure that you are using the correct server name, and that the server can be reached. For more information, see OleDbErrorCollection.
Remarks
This exception is thrown whenever the .NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB encounters an error generated by the server.
If the severity of the error is too great, the server may close the OleDbConnection. However, the user can reopen the connection and continue.
this is the online help.i am not able to find whats wrong with my code
im not aware of stored procedures...
can u help me out in this coding?

That's a warning from the integrated security, probably an error in the connectionString. Try this one:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Downloads\user.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;
vijay2482 wrote: Verify that you are connecting with valid credentials.
It is referring to the credentials in your connection, the one used to connect to the database. You can't perform a "SELECT FROM USER" until you have a database-connection. And you'll need a user-name and a password to do that
The supplied connectionstring feats. the default username and password for MS-Access. From there-on you can implement your own security-system.

I expect your select statement is incorrect, probably with all the embedded quotes. Use either a stored procedure or a parameterised query, or if you must leave yourself open to sql injection attack then print the select statement out and see where its wrong.

The error says your SQL statement has a problem in the FROM clause. Does your database have a table called "Users"? BTW: That's NOT referrring to the name of the database file.
|
|
|
|
|
yes i do have a database file named as "user"
i deleted the existing data source in vb.net and recreated it
even then the same error is been displayed
kindly give a solution for this problem
thanks in advance

Inside that file, do you have any table called user?

yes i do have a table called user with Username and Password as the fields and 3 entries in it
|
|
|
|

Well the error message says you don't. Try enclosing the table name in square brackets in your SQL statement.
SELECT Username, Password FROM [User] WHERE ...
BTW: Your WHERE clause is a VERY bad way of looking up what was entered on the login page. Use parameterized queries instead.
