Read specific record in database ?[Resolved]

How ?

Thanks for any help !

No databinding at all .;)

What you mean by specific record? I mean how you specify that record?

If you want to read the record number 10, column number 2 for example then one way would be

VB Code:

mydata=myDataset.mytable.Row(9)(1) 'Zero based index
'or
mydata=myDataset.myTable.Rows.Item(9)(1)

If you want to read a record based on a primary key or value of a filed, then that would be another story

Yes Lunatic3 , I need to show the whole record after I provide some info .Meaning , show all data based on specific given value .

Got it ?

Thank you

That is what a Select SQL statement is for Pirate.

Select * From table Where something = somthing

Well , I did tried that . See this...
but I want to show all related fields . How ?

VB Code:

Public Overloads Shared Function speificRec(ByVal colum As String, ByVal SearchText As String, ByVal lstbox As ListBox)
                Dim sql As String = "Select C_URL FROM MyTab"
 
                Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(sql, MyConnection)
                Static ds As DataSet
                If ds Is Nothing Then
                    'if not filled yet fill it
                    ds = New DataSet()
                    'fill dataset
                    OpenDB.OpenDB()
 
                    da.Fill(ds, "MyTab")
                    CloseDB.CloseDB()
                    da.Dispose()
                End If
 
                Try
                    Dim dv As New DataView(ds.Tables("MyTab"), "" & colum & " Like'" & SearchText & "%'", colum, DataViewRowState.CurrentRows)
 
 
                    lstbox.DataSource = dv
                    lstbox.DisplayMember = colum
                Catch x As Exception
                    MsgBox(x.Message)
                End Try
            End Function
 
        End Class

Pirate, you really need to be more clear. I have no clue what you are trying to figure out.:confused:

you mean all of the values of a specific row?

Then

VB Code:

Dim allvalues as Array
allvalues=myDs.myDatatable.Rows(desiredrowindex).ItemArray
 
'or for dataviews
 
allvalues=myDV.Item(desiedrowindex).Row.ItemArray

yeah yeah Lunatic3:D . That's it . So how can I do then ?
Sorry guys if I confused you ;)

Sorry Lunatic3 , Do you mean this ? I haven't tried it yet! :rolleyes:

Yes, then you can play with allvalues array.

Ok , I will give it a shot and tell you what happened .
Thanks Lunatic3 .

Lunatic3 , I used another way around to achieve what I need . I customized the SQL Stat. to load all records for specific table and then used datarow object assigned to label or textbox or whatever .
It's solved now . :D
