Objectives
Chapter 14
Applied
• Use a data source to get the data that an application requires.
• Use a DataGridView control to present the data that’s retrieved by
a data source.
How to work with
data sources
and datasets

• Use other controls like text boxes to present the data that’s
retrieved by a data source.
• Write the Visual Basic code for handling any data errors that result
from the use of the data source or the controls that are bound to it.
• Use the Dataset Designer to (1) view the schema for the dataset of
a data source, (2) modify a query using the Query Builder, (3)
preview the data for a query, or (4) review the SQL statements that
are generated for a data source.

Objectives (continued)
Knowledge
• Describe the use of a connection string in an app.config file.
• Describe the use of the Fill and UpdateAll methods of the
TableAdapter object.
• Describe the use of the EndEdit method of the BindingSource
object.
• Describe the two categories of data errors that can occur when you
run an application that uses a data source.
• Describe the use of the DataError event for a DataGridView
control.
• In general terms, describe the way the SQL statements that are
generated for a data source (1) prevent concurrency errors, and (2)
refresh a dataset when the database generates the keys for new
rows.

How to start the Data Source Configuration Wizard
• Click on the Add New Data Source link that’s available from the
Data Sources window when a project doesn’t contain any data
sources.
• To get your data from a database, select the Database option. This
option lets you create applications like the ones described in this
chapter.
• Click on the Add New Data Source button at the top of the Data
Sources window.
• To get your data from a web service, select the Web Service
option. This option lets you browse the web to select a web service
that will supply data to your application.
• Select the Add New Data Source command from Visual Studio’s
D t menu.
Data
• To get your data from a business object, select the Object option.
• Add a SQL Server (.mdf) or Access (.mdb) data file to the project
using the ProjectÆAdd Existing Item command. Then, the wizard
will let you choose the database objects you want to include.

Slide 8
The Add Connection and Change Data Source
dialog boxes
Slide 9
In the Express Edition…
• The Change Data Source dialog box provides only three options:
Microsoft Access Database File, Microsoft SQL Server Compact
3.5 (the default), and Microsoft SQL Server Database File.

Slide 10
The third step of the
Data Source Configuration Wizard
• The Add Connection dialog box is simpler, and it includes a
Database File Name text box that you use to specify the database.

How to work with columns that have default values
Murach’s Visual Basic 2008, C14
© 2008, Mike Murach & Associates, Inc.
Slide 14
A project with a dataset defined by a data source
• If a column in a database has a default value, that value isn’t
included in the column definition in the dataset.
• Because of that, you may want to omit columns with default values
from the dataset unless they’re needed by the application. Then,
when a row is added to the table, the default value is taken from the
database.
• If you iinclude
l d a column
l
that’s
th t’ defined
d fi d with
ith a default
d f lt value,
l you
must provide a value for that column whenever a row is added to
the dataset. One way to do that is to let the user enter a value.
Another way is to display the Dataset Designer and use the
Properties window for the column to set the DefaultValue property.
