[RESOLVED] [2005] Simple CODE

I am current still learning in database, and i figure some of this hard to code.
This is how i add a record in a access using VB6.0

Code:

---

Call Opening
ObjRS.Open "Contact", ObjConn, adLockOptimistic, adOpenStatic, adCmdTable
ObjRs.AddNew
ObjRs.Fileds("Sname") = txtName.Text
ObjRs.Fields("Number") = txtNumber.Text
ObjRs.Fields("Address") = txtAddress.Text
ObjRs.Update
MsgBox ("Record Added")
Call Closing

---

its very simple but when im using VB.Net using this code

Code:

---

Option Strict On
Option Explicit On

Imports System.Windows.Forms.Form
Imports System.Data.OleDb

Public Class CreateAccount
    Private contactID As Int64 = 0

    Public Property Contact() As Int64 '
        Get
            Return contactID
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Int64)
            contactID = value
        End Set
    End Property

    Public Sub RetriveRecords()
        Dim ObjConn As New OleDbConnection("Provider = Microsoft.Jet.OleDb.4.0;Data Source=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\DBase\Bank.mdb;")
        Dim dAdapter As New OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM UserDatabase", ObjConn)
        Dim dTable As New DataTable

        dAdapter.Fill(dTable)
        Database.AccessDatabase.DataSource = dTable

    End Sub

    Private Sub btnSave_CLick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
        Dim ObjConn As New OleDbConnection("Provider = Microsoft.Jet.OleDb.4.0;Data Source=C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\DBase\Bank.mdb;")
        Dim sql As String = String.Empty

        If contactID = 0 Then
            sql = "INSERT INTO UserDatabase(Ename,Address,ContactNumber,AmountPaid,DatePaid,PeriodTime)" _
            & "VALUES('" & txtEname.Text & "','" & txtAddress.Text & "','" & txtContact.Text & "','" & txtAmount.Text & "','" & txtDate.Text & "','" & cboPeriod.Text & "')"
        End If

        ObjConn.Open()
        Dim dCMd As New OleDbCommand(sql, ObjConn)
        dCMd.ExecuteNonQuery()
        ObjConn.Close()
        MessageBox.Show("Record Added")

I use the Public Property to determine what im going to do. Is there any simple code reather than that. As simple in VB6.0

Thanks for providing that VB6 code, although it's completely useless because this is VB.NET and you're using ADO.NET.

Thank you for the link, but is it more appropriate to use the SQL namespace instead using the oledb namespace ?

Read that thread properly and you'll have your answer. It's in the very first paragraph.

it depends oon the kind of database you want to use. if Access best suits your need, you use the oledb otherwise, you go for sql. jmc used sql because that what he was using for his example.

Yah your right i get the answer, if i use the SQL namespace i can write less code, all the SQL statements are added in a Dataset, and im going to do is just call the methods.

:confused: No, that's not it.

SqlClient is, as its documentation says, for use with SQL Server. If you're using an OLEDB provider, like Jet with Access, then you use OleDb.

Yah i know that, im just saying that if i use the SQLClient i can write less code and just call all the methods of SQL statements that are stored in a Dataset.

that will be exactly the same if you use oledb and dataset. You will ahve to write the same amount of code

No, that doesn't have anything to do with anything I'm afraid. In VS 2005 you can create a typed DataSet with accompnying TableAdapters for basically any data source. If you do that you will be writing less code and you will not be using SqlClient, OleDb or any other provider directly. The IDE will generate most of the code for you, but under the hood it will still use SqlClient for SQL Server and OleDb for Access.

Thank you jmcillhiney and talkro, well im translating the code of jmc use in SQLClient into an oledb.

Before im going to Resolved this thread, im trying to use the ManageData but i cant find it in a library ?

I have no idea what you mean. Is this related to the previous question?
