k, i'v been searching, and trying so many things and not comingup with any way of doing this.
basicly, i want it to do this.
button clicked:
--username.txt to a string
--password.txt to a string
open remote connection with username and password to remote connection
if sucsessfull, msgbox "hello world"
if not, msgbox "error"
thats it.
this is what i'v got...most complete code...
Code:
Private Sub Login_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OK.Click
conn = New MySqlConnection()
conn.ConnectionString = "server=" & "server IP" & ";" _
& "user id=" & txtUsername.Text & ";" _
& "password=" & txtPassword.Text & ";" _
& "database= usertable"
Try
conn.Open()
MessageBox.Show("user accepted, application starting")
conn.Close()
frmbrowser.show()
me.close()
Catch myerror As MySqlException
MessageBox.Show("incorrect password")
Finally
conn.Dispose()
End Try
End Sub
anybody tell me where im going wrong?
