I think the way the database connectivity toolkit works, it is expecting the database to already exist. The function you are calling creates a table so it probably errors if the file doesn't exist. If you google 'create access database programmatically' you may be able to find something useful for creating a new access database file. Don't forget that you also have the native File I/O functions in LabVIEW for copying/moving files on disk.
For the connection string...there's a handy website here: http://www.connectionstrings.com/
I think you can also open a connection file (UDL) in notepad?

Oracle 11g Installation How to select Database Character Set

Hi,
I am Installing oracle 11g R2. After installation I had verified the character set it was AL16UTF16 but I wants to set AL32UTF8 charater set at the time of oracle installation only. I can't see the character set setting opetion at the time of installation because I am selecting the installation option " Install database softerware only" and after installation of oracle software manually I am creating the database. Please help me how can I set the character set at the time of oracle installation or at the time of database creation.
My question is-
How can I set the AL32UTF8 character set in above scenario?
Why It is showing AL16UTF16 character set even I did not define any thing?

But is there any choice to set the NLS_CHARACTERSET at the time of manually database creation. Actually For creating the database i am using one shell script for seting the parameter values in init.ora file so can I set the parameter at that level(at the time of creating init.ora using manually database creation). like
## Original init.ora file created by manual database creation tool on ${DATE}.

How to select directory path in a selection screen

How to send a path from labview to teststand.

Hi!
I have a DLL that I have developed in LabView and as a input parameter I have a path to a file
but if I in the LabViewCode uses String to recieve the path from TestStand and the path includes \T
these just disapperes.
ex:
I send "C:\test.vi" to LabView from Teststand
If I check the Path recieved in LabView i get "C: est.vi"
Instead if I in LabView uses Path to recieve data from TestStand I get an error in Teststand.
How should I do?
/Andreas

Labview strings use the backslash "\" as a special character. \t is a tab, \n is a newline, \r is carriage return, and so on. To send a real backslash use two of them, like \\. So your path string should be "C:\\test.vi".

How to select a path in filebrowser?

Hi all,
I want to use the file browser (from FileBrowser.fp). If a path is given (e.g. from history) I want the file to be selected in the file browser, and the directory tree being expanded to the appropriate directory.
The only function I have found was to set the attribute ATTR_START_PATH which doesn't fit my needs because it limits browsing to this directory (and subfolders), but I want the user to be able to browse everything, including root level.
Is there a function or an example to preselect a path or a file with path in the file browser?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The way I did this was to use Makepathname and FileSelectPopup functions like so:
MakePathname ("c:\\", "Whatever.csv", pathname);
ipath = FileSelectPopup ("c:\\", "*.csv*", ".csv", "Save File As...", VAL_SAVE_BUTTON, 0, 0, 1, 0, pathname);
if (ipath = 0)
break;
This particular case sets the default as a .csv file, but you can have it as any file type. In the first argument of the FileSelectPopup function just set the directory as high up as you like. In my case I wanted to have the whole c drive available. Try this and let me know if it works for you.

How to obtain database connection via PL/SQL

Dear friends,
I need to obtain the database name where user is connected - using PL/SQL. That is, if I type "select user from dual" I obtain the connected user; is there some similar way for me to obtain database connection?
Thanks, and best regards,
Franklin

SELECT sys_context('USERENV', 'DB_NAME') FROM dual;
SELECT sys_context('USERENV', 'INSTANCE') FROM dual;
You can choose whichever you want to use. :-)
Instace parameter will give you INSTANCE_ID (matches with GV$INSTANCE) so not that much useful I guess.

ORGANIZER: How to select correct path to the folder to be controlled (Windows 7, GERMAN)

The path selected automatically is set to users/my_name/pictures, whereas my path on my German OS is Benutzer/my-name/Bilder --> so this does not match, but I cannot change it.

You may wish to create a new catalog and then try a catalog conversion from Organizer if the existing catalog is listed.

How to select for insert a long column through database link?

How may a long column (for example a sql server 2000 text column) be selected for insert into a clob column in table in 10g over a database link without invoking ora-00997?
I've tried using dbms_metadata_util.long2clob without success over a database link.

Is the remote database an Oracle database? Or are you selecting data from SQL Server 2000 over a database link via Heterogeneous Services? What is the data type of the column in the remote database (LONG? TEXT? Something else?)?

How to select alternate entries from the database table

Hi Experts,
can u help me, how to select alternate entries from the database table.
Thanks

As there is no concept of sequence (unless there is a field specifically included for the purpose), there is no meaning to "alternate" records.
What table do you have in mind, what data does it hold, and why do you want alternate records?

How to select a Tab in a TabPane via API

I am trying to figure out how to select a Tab in my TabPane via the API. In the javadoc for the Tab it says to use the TabPane.selectedTab, there is no selectedTab property that I can find. Also on the tab there is a selectedProperty but it is read only.
So how do you change the selected tab via the API?

Hi,
Its...
tabPane.getSelectionModel().select(index)You also have other options on the selectionmodel.
Cheers,

How to select item in combobox using database?

I inserted some data in oracle database using comboboxes and to retrieve that data from oracle database.my problem, How to select the item in combobox using that data(retrieve data)?

Not quite sure what you're asking; do you want to show some value in the combo box selected when the page loads? Then you need to use the "selected" key word in the correspoding <option> element.
