Firebird and Visual Basic .Net example code

If you are using Visual Studio or Visual Basic to develop program connect to firebird database server, this might be a good example.

Imports FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient

Public Class Principale



Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim Fdataa As New FbDataAdapter("select*from New_table1", "servertype=1;username=sysdba;password=masterkey;database=" & My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\Giorgio.gdb")

DataSet1.Tables.Add("New_table1")
Me.DataGridView1.DataSource = DataSet1
Me.DataGridView1.DataMember = "New_table1"

Fdataa.Fill(DataSet1, "New_table1")

End Sub


Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Nuovo.Show()
End Sub
'To begin the change
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

'I used the trim function because would be problems with positioning of the cursor if you will pass from varcahr type to char type and vice versa.
Modifica.TextBox1.Text =

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Trim(DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value)

Modifica.TextBox2.Text = DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(1).Value

End Sub
