Visual Basic Database Programming

[Neo Maduma]

Does anyone know exactly how to code in visual basic in order to edit, add, delete, or search the information in a Microsoft Access database?

Yes, many people know how to do it exactly. There are numerous ways of doing it - finding the solution that you feel most comfortable with is what counts.

Did you do a simple web search? There are billions of samples out there.

Search for the 101 .Net sample somewhere on msdn or http://code.msdn.com.

any idea on where i can search for more info on that? @farlig

Oh, and read up on the .NET Knowledge Sharing thread. There is a whole section dedicated to data management in a .NET application. Just read the first post and follow the links in the TOC.

.NET Knowledge Sharing Thread
SQL Related topic in .NET Knowledge Sharing Thread

Also, just search this sub-forum a bit. MS Access issues in VB.NET / C# jump up every so often...

Final point - remember that any C# sample code you get can easily be converted to VB.NET using any of the links specified in the first post of the .NET Knowledge Sharing thread.

I heard there was a search engine called "google" that kind of knows where websites and stuff are.

Posting broad questions like that aren't going to get you many answers. You are also coming across as being to lazy to find out for yourself and then post questions to specific problems.

I suggest you try and search for yourself, that being said there have been quite a few threads on this recently, maybe look there as well.

EDIT: You don't specify which Visual Basic you are using 6 or .NET?

and i thank you all, the funny and the helpful.

hehe, looks like some of my threads are coming in handy here *YAY*

but yeah, basically, there is always something that you can find on the net in terms of broad topics, and then post specific issues that you might have overlooked as a question here

Get used to the humor on here - developers need somewhere to vent their pent-up craziness after staring at an IDE for hours on end!

 

[Neo Maduma]

No need to be sarcastic, most people here are actually trying to help. LMGTFY is also old... try being original next time.

don't underestimate the power of a pent-up programmer

You can go on a course for that, usually 2 days.
Helps to know a bit of SQL too.

Security issues aside, you want to access bluetooth from .NET? I've seen libraries available on the .NET, have you searched for one?
