Visual Basic Multi Data Filtering

Jason — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 16:17:40 +0000

In large applications you will need additional search options other than just 1.
For example, if you’re running a products based application with the ability to filter First Names, the list could get quite large seeings how First Names are not unique and in some cases Last Names aren’t either.
However a Address, Telephone Number are unique, there are no duplicate phone numbers or addresses in a given City.
Having the ability to have multi filterting will save alot of time when needing to pull up a record for a given client so we rely on getting the information back as quickly as possible.
This application has a database with multi filtering.
The filters available are:

Firstname
Lastname
Address

The idea to this application is to show you guys the filtering ability in visual basic and shows you how the filtering was accomplished.
Each filter consists of a query, so having 3 filters = 3 queries.

Visual Basic Data Filtering

Jason — Thu, 27 May 2010 08:31:28 +0000

This project demonstrates how to filter a field in your database.
This project contains a database called contactsbook and has 5 fields.
Form1 allows you to add, delete, navigate etc. records and in the navigation strip there’s an extra button called search.
That will open the search form.
View the search form code for a summary.

Visual Basic Data Controls (Custom Controls)

Jason — Sun, 23 May 2010 22:21:53 +0000

When you create a database and drag it on to your form it will populate all the controls needed to make it fully active.
One of the controls is a navigation menu strip that allows you to:

Scroll through records
View how many records are in the database
Add records
Delete records
Save records

Some of us may want to use our own type of controls that will perform the same functionality.
Maybe you want to make your own buttons and place them wherever you want on the form.
This project removes the navigation menu strip and uses buttons to perform all the above.
There is also a label that displays how many records are in the database.

Visual Basic Database Relationships

Jason — Sun, 23 May 2010 22:20:59 +0000

In some cases it wouldn’t make sense navigating 500 records of products who have been purchased by the same customer.
Wouldn’t it make more sense navigating 1 record and viewing the 500 products in a Gridview?
Maybe you have 3500 customers who have purchased several products, think of how many times you would have to navigate to view all customers and products…It would take a long time.
This is where we need to rely on data relationships.
Data relationships allows you to connect…say a customers table to a products table.
All products a customer purchases will be available by viewing the one record…the Customer record.
If i have purchased 25 products and Jane purchased 13 products, i could than view all products i have purchased under 1 customer record than i can navigate to Jane and see all 13 products she’d purchased.
This project shows how something like that would work.
This project is a simple contacts project.
You can create individual users who have multiple contacts.

Youtube Timer Available

Jason — Mon, 10 May 2010 02:49:51 +0000

The Youtube timer program is now available for download.
There are 2 zip files you can download

The .exe file that you can install right away
The project files itself.

I have also prepared a short outline on Classes and Modules so you can get a better understanding as to how they work in the project itself.
I’m hoping this will help you better modify the program.

Downloads!

Image Share

Jason — Sun, 02 May 2010 23:28:42 +0000

This is a application i made in ASP.NET
It’s a real basic data based site that allows you to embed images into a database and a link is provided to view the full size images.
It provides details such as image caption which is linked to the full size embeded image, the image itself as well as a textbox that displays the full URL path to the image.
This is not suggested you use as a live site unless you implement some security into it, it’s just a open source project that users can play around with and see how it’s structured.
If you’re unsure of how it was put together you can watch a 2 part video series i did which shows everything i did starting from scratch.

Youtube Timer

Jason — Sun, 02 May 2010 23:07:37 +0000

The youtube timer is a program i built in Visual Basic.
This small application allows you to keep track of how long you have been doing your recordings and to ensure you don’t go over your 10 min limit.
When you download this application you will be downloading all files that make it what it is.
It’s a open source project that users can use as their own timer or can manipulate it to make it whatever they want.
This application will be going through some changes as time goes on to try and provide better functionality yet make it as small as possible so it don’t get in the way of your recordings.
