I have gone through this, and I tried to implement somehow. The implementation is as follows:
// first connected xl datasheet:
Dim filename As String = "C:\Student.xls"
Dim con As String
con = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=" & filename & ";" & "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"
Dim connection As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(con)
connection.Open()
// now copying the excel column into access database table columns:
Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand
cmd.Connection = connection
Try
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * INTO [MS Access;Database=C:\alldata.mdb].[Record] FROM [Sheet1$]"
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
connection.Close()
MsgBox("The Import is Compelte")
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox("Import Failed, correct Column name in the sheet!")
End Try
While executing I am getting following error:
The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
I am using Microsoft office 2007 with Access 2007 database.
Please tell me how to solve this?
Regards,
R.S.

The first thing to do would be to try and populate a dataset to prove the data is first getting read from Excel.
If you succeed with that then start trying to populate the access table.
I think for experimenting with new code, you are trying to do too much in one step. Start small, bite sized chunks, or you could end up getting confused by it all.

I am trying this:
Dim ds1 As New DataSet
Dim da As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]", connection)
da.Fill(ds1)
But getting same error:
The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object 'Sheet1$'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.

I created a Student.XLSX file with the 3 columns as you stated in your OP.
The code below successfully ran and imported the data to a dataset which was then bound to a DataGridView;
Dim conBuilder As New OleDbConnectionStringBuilder
conBuilder.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conBuilder.DataSource = "C:\Users\Dave Auld\Desktop\Student.xlsx"
conBuilder.PersistSecurityInfo = False
conBuilder.Add("Extended Properties", "Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;")
Dim con As New OleDbConnection
con.ConnectionString = conBuilder.ConnectionString
Dim com As New OleDbCommand("Select * from [Sheet1$]")
com.Connection = con
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(com)
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim rowcount As Integer = da.Fill(ds)
DataGridView1.DataSource = ds
DataGridView1.DataMember = ds.Tables(0).TableName

Hi,
I have copied the data in a new dataset "ds1". Please tell me how to copy this "ds1" contents into Access Database. I am trying with following:
Dim da2 As New OleDbDataAdapter
Dim conn As OleDbConnection
Dim cmd As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand()
conn = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\alldata.mdb;")
cmd = New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM Denver", con)
da2 = New OleDbDataAdapter(cmd)
da1.Fill(ds1, "Denver")
But not able to populate the Access database.
Can You guide me how to do this??
Thanks,
R.S.

You have to account for the fact that no two scans of the exact same card will result in a pixel-by-pixel equality. Every pixel is going to be a slightly different color than the same pixel in the previous scan.
If all you're doing is OCR'ing the business cards, why even bother comparing two images of the cards and just compare the data that's coming off them?
If you have to compare the images, then you'll have to implement a filter (in C#, not VB.NET!) to process the image to equalize the colors. For example, if you look at the white part of a business card, you'll see a scattering of pixels of different colors, not an even white acrossed all of them. You have to implement a filter to remove all those color variations to generate the nice flat color acrossed all pixels.
Search the articles for "image processing for dummies" and you'll find some good examples by Christian Graus.
Ph, you can't do this in VB.NET. If you wanted any speed at all, it has to be done in C#, or some other managed language that supports pointers. VB.NET doesn't.

dear dave... all you wroted isnt corect! download the archive which i posted and try to compare two images...

i know that and understand what you mean so i made:
Private Function CheckPixel(ByVal source_color As Color, ByVal search_color As Color, ByVal tolerancy As Integer) As Boolean
Dim sense As Long
sense = 255 - tolerancy * 5
CheckPixel = (System.Math.Sqrt((Val(source_color.R.ToString) - Val(search_color.R.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.R.ToString) - Val(search_color.R.ToString)) + (Val(source_color.G.ToString) - Val(search_color.G.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.G.ToString) - Val(search_color.G.ToString)) + (Val(source_color.B.ToString) - Val(search_color.B.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.B.ToString) - Val(search_color.B.ToString))) > sense)
End Function
wich is working ok for pixelbypixel search! but i dont want pixelbypixel search or do want i dont know thats why i posted a link to rapidshare file and application with source wich contains my needs!

no i am not doing ocr. i have button "start" and then i scan image and compare to an image that is stored to database and detect difference on those two images and pixelbypixel is slow and not good result but with the code for detect difference from link i posted would do what i want! Here are images you can try with the application i posted and see what i want!

yes i want compare... look at compared picture!

Pf course your search is slow! First, you're using GetPixel, which takes an eternity to execute. Second, this code is garbage:
CheckPixel = (System.Math.Sqrt((Val(source_color.R.ToString) - Val(search_color.R.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.R.ToString) - Val(search_color.R.ToString)) + (Val(source_color.G.ToString) - Val(search_color.G.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.G.ToString) - Val(search_color.G.ToString)) + (Val(source_color.B.ToString) - Val(search_color.B.ToString)) * (Val(source_color.B.ToString) - Val(search_color.B.ToString))) > sense)
Your converting each RGB value component, say R, to a string, then back to a value. This is VERY time consuming an completely unnecessary. Not only are you doing it at all, you're doing it several times for each time you use the same value!
The only way you're going to improve performance is to scrap this code and rewrite it in C# and directly access the image data. You cannot do this in VB.NET because it requires the use of unsafe pointers, which VB.NET does not support.
Search the articles for "image processing for dummies" and you'll find a very good series of articles by Christian Graus explaining just how this is done.

First, I already told you why you could not do this entirely in VB.NET. Go back and re-read it.

There is no equivilent in VB.NET. I already told you VB.NET does not support pointers, making writing it in VB.NET impossible.
FeRtoll wrote: I would prefer to learn assembler rather than c#,
Waste your time however you want. C# is so very close to VB.NET, so you know more about it than you realize.

Hello everyone,
I currently have an infragistics ultrawingrid that takes input in a cell and when tabbed, it updates database and refreshes the grid but the tab goes to the next control. I need the tab to go to the next cell. This is not a problem in the designer its a problem with the grid being refreshed in the hard code and it has to be refreshed because other values have dependency on the values being entered. does anyone have any ideas or any reference to how i can achieve this.
Any comment or suggestion is appreciated

Hi,
How can I find out what type of disc is in the dvd/cd reader.
I found
- System.IO.DriveInfo(driveLetter)
- FileSystemobject with drives
- Directory.GetLogicalDrives
But non of these tells me what type of disc is in the machine. How can I find this?

I don't think there's a direct property but System.IO.DriveInfo has Totalsize so you could work it out from that, no?

you can do that by a simple P/Invoke:
mciSendStringA("set CDAudio door open", "", 0, 0)
and that also works for data CD and DVD

How do you make an input that the user key in a textbox to be a percentage number?

Just make it a number and put a label with "%" in it behind.
Then on change parse the value to %
Easier than messing around with controlling inputs.
