In your VB code you should already have a connection to the database! That connection will work on the other computer as long as it is networked to the server.

Thanks
I understand but I think you did not answer my question that I had asked.
|
|

Alright lets try a little hand holding!
Does you VB app extract data from sql server - yes
Is there a connection to the database - yes
Is the "other PC" on the same network as the server - you need to answer this question
If the answer is yes then all you need to do is deploy your application to the "other PC"
I STRONGLY suggest you do a LOT of reading on developing and deploying applications, your question indicates you have too little knowledge to complete this task.

Storing some data (which includes Text,URL,image..) into a single Table. And could be assigned into separate fields.
is it possible?if so,how?

Judging from your question I would suggest you get a beginners book on database and start reading as it indicates you have no idea what a database does.
A column and a field are the same thing. A table on the other hand has a collection of columns which may be of different data types so you could store a row/record of data made up of the different data types.
Get book and start studying!

Please omit the second part of the Question.
I meant that for Front end fields.

You can store everything in a single column of a single table; but then you'd be better of with storing that blob in a file, and not in a database.
Every "field" should hold 1 piece of information, not more - regardless of how it is shown.

Your question isn't clear.
If you want to store a single 'item' without respect to the type of the item and you need to have no limit on the size then you would use a single column which has a blob (binary not character data.)
If you want to keep a hint as to what type of data is in that column then you could create another string\text column which stores the name of the type like 'url', 'txt', 'img', etc.

If the above is a correct re-statement of your question then the above is also the answer.

I want to show reports by fetching data from OLAP. How to do that in .Net? Thanks
|
|
|
|

choose a reporting tool[^],learn how to connect to the database, learn how to develop reports in the chosen tool and build your reports. Deploy your reports in your chosen tool.
.Net does not have a specific reporting tool.

Is there a better way (xml) that would prove to be better? Space is not an issue; however, length of time to display is, as always, a major factor.
I would save as a file and link to the file, but I fear that in the manner suggested they will not map the network drive to a consistent letter at all workstations.
What have you done or would you do?

..then fetch it once, and put it in the users' temp directory.

As a user, I can see everything in that path? Could I delete everything? I can try of course, since you probably have a backup 
PrissySC wrote: What have you done or would you do?
I'd go for the database-solution, but I'd be putting the files in their own database on the server. That way it could have it's own backup-policy.
If the users are only "reading" files then a webserver might be preferable; IIS has nice caching options, and getting the files would be easy.

If you're using MS SQL 2012, you might want to look at FileTables[^]. For 2008 / 2008 R2, FileStream[^] might help.

That of course depends on how the user is accessing it.

Again this depends on how the users access it.
PrissySC wrote: What have you done or would you do?
Depends on the system but at least one file based solution is to provide an application\web server which can return a file URL and where the server permissions allow only for read only access into the file system. The database then returns something that can be massaged into a file url.
There are other solutions and other factors such as how many files, what sort of access, how often does access occur, size of files, goals of project, etc.

hi,i want to create this funcyion but sql not allowed,
create FUNCTION returnrahgiri(@rahgiri text)
RETURNS text
as
BEGIN
return (Select response from work_with_us where (response=@rahgiri))
END
message error:
Msg 2716, Level 16, State 1, Procedure returnrahgiri, Line 1
Column, parameter, or variable #0: Cannot specify a column width on data type text.

You can replace text with Varchar(50)
or any specified size.
|
|
|
|

Assuming you're not using SQL 2000 or earlier, you shouldn't be using the text data-type[^]:
ntext , text, and image data types will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using these data types in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use them. Use nvarchar(max), varchar(max), and varbinary(max) instead.

Hi,
I am using the following code to populate all cleaners and display the income from every cleaner. It works fine when there is a entry for the cleaner in the job_order table but if no entry then it will not display the cleaner.
I want to display ALL cleaners even if no entry in the job_order table but of course with ZERO income.
SELECT
cleaners.cleaner_id,
cleaners.cleaner_name,
cleaners.date_of_join,
SUM(invoices.invoice_net_amount) as total_income
FROM
cleaners
INNER JOIN job_orders ON job_orders.cleaner_id = cleaners.cleaner_id
INNER JOIN invoices ON invoices.job_order_id = job_orders.job_order_id
GROUP BY
cleaners.cleaner_id
ORDER BY cleaners.cleaner_name;

You'd also want the cleaners that don't have an order detail?

yes.. I want to display all
if cleaner has order then it will display the SUM but if not then I want to display ZERO, null, blank or whatever..
