Visual Basic .Net and Database: Practical Tutorials (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798556229709)

This book aims to develop a MySQL-driven desktop application that readers can develop for their own purposes to implement library project using Visual Basic .NET.In Tutorial 1, you will build a Visual Basic interface for the database. This interface will used as the main terminal in accessing other forms. This tutorial will also discuss how to create login form and login table. You will create login form. Place on the form one picture box, two labels, one combo box, one text box, and two buttons.In Tutorial 2, you will build a school inventory project where you can store information about valuables in school. The table will have nine fields: Item (description of the item), Quantity, Location (where the item was placed), Shop (where the item was purchased), DatePurchased (when the item was purchased), Cost (how much the item cost), SerialNumber (serial number of the item), PhotoFile (path of the photo file of the item), and Fragile (indicates whether a particular item is fragile or not). In Tutorial 3, you will perform the steps necessary to add 5 new tables using phpMyAdmin into Academy database. You will build each table and add the associated fields as needed. Every table in the database will need input form. In this tutorial, you will build such a form for Author table. Although this table is quite simple (only four fields: AuthorID, Name, BirthDate, and PhotoFile), it provides a basis for illustrating the many steps in interface design. SQL statement is required by the Command object to read fields (sorted by Name). Then, you will build an interface so that the user can maintain the Publisher table in the database (Academy). The Publisher table interface is more or less the same as Author table interface. This Publisher table interface only requires more input fields. So you will use the interface for the Author table and modify it for the Publisher table.In Tutorial 4, you will perform the steps necessary to design and implement title form, library member form, and book borrowal form. You start by designing and testing the basic entry form for book titles. The Title table has nine fields: BookTitle, PublishYear, ISBN, PublisherID, AuthorID, Description, Note, Subject, and Comment. Then, you will build such a form for Member table. This table has twelve fields: MemberID, FirstName, LastName, BirthDate, Status, Ethnicity, Nationality, Mobile, Phone, Religion, Gender, and PhotoFile). You need thirteen label controls, one picture box, six text boxes, four comboxes, one check box, one date time picker, one openfiledialog, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, six buttons for controlling editing features, one button for searching member's name, and one button to upload member's photo. Finally, you will build such a form for Borrow table. This table has seven fields: BorrowID, MemberID, BorrowCode, ISBN, BorrowDate, ReturnDate, and Penalty. In this form, you need fourteen label controls, seven text boxes, two comboxes, two date time pickers, and one printpreviewdialog. You also need four buttons for navigation, seven buttons for other utilities, one button to generate borrowal code, and one button to return book.
