Automatic Data Fill-up

Hello guys!

I am relavtively new to ASP.NET programming ang was just starting out on my first project. I am using ASP.NET2.0 technology by using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition and of course with SQL 2005 Express Edition.

I would like to develop a database for our IP addresses, so one field of my table in a SQL data is the field for IP addresses.

I would like to write a program wherein after clicking the button, that field will be automatically filled up with IP addresses (e.g, from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255).

How do I accomplish this kind of dynamic filling up of fields? Thanks a lot!

When the client clicks the button ,you can get client ip using the following code:

Dim strClientIPAs StringstrClientIP = Request.UserHostAddress()

Then you can save the strClientIP into your table:

 
Dim connAs New SqlConnection("Data Source=.\yourserver;Database=pubs;Integrated Security=SSPI;")Dim cmdAs New SqlCommand("INSERT INTO yourtable(clientip) SELECT @.clientIP", conn) conn.Open() cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@.clientIP",strClientIP)Dim iAs Int32 i = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() Response.Write(i.ToString() +" row(s) has been written to clientIP") conn.Dispose()
 

Auto-Increment

I'm creating a new SQL 2005 Express database and want to have a Customers
table. How do I auto-increment the CustomerID field? Programming in VB.Net
2005.
I'm new to SQL, so go easy on me please ;-)
TIA, Burt

Let's get back to the basics of an RDBMS. Rows are not records; fields
are not columns; tables are not files; there is no sequential access or
ordering in an RDBMS.
What you want is a relational key that you can verify and validate.
Auto-incrementing has to do with the internal state of the hardware and
not the data model. This is why there are industry standard codes, why
websites use email addreses, etc.|||> Auto-incrementing has to do with the internal state of the hardware and

And what about all that Date and Codd say on SURROGATE KEYS then?

Codd defined them as created by the systrem, and NEVER exposed to the
user. Think of indexes or hashing as the same kind of creature. I
assume that Date feels the same way, but he seldom gets even that close
to implementation considerations.|||> Codd defined them as created by the systrem, and NEVER exposed to the

You DO NOT need to expose a SURROGATE KEY to a USER!!!

Thats your interpretation and not anybody elses. Its the view point of a
purist without regard for practical application of the logical model.
The use of the IDENTITY property as a SURROGATE KEY is fine so long as you
consider the implementation of your logical model specifically if the
database is in a distributed environment.
The use of surrogates with an application (note: the database is just one
component of your application) helps us get round many problems such as a)
performance, b) where the NATURAL KEY (note, there is no such thing as a
relational key) is composite and c) where the NATURAL KEY may or is prone to
changing which would cause dramatic concurrency and consistency problems.

I think you assume wrong. Date agrees with most of the rest of us, that
a surrogate key (like all keys) is part of the logical model. He says
so explicitly in Introduction to Database Systems and differentiates
them from tuple IDs, which are indeed an implementation feature.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.
