Best Way To Use Listbox Selection In WHERE ... IN (...) Clause?
Aug 30, 2005
I need to use the list of items from a multiselect listbox in a parameter of a query's IN clause.
Example:
I assemble the list from the listbox and set the paramter value so @CityList = 'London','Paris','Rome' .... etc.
A sample SQL would be:
SELECT * FROM Customers
WHERE City IN (@CityList)
However, the SQL will not work. It seems the whole string is put in
another set of single quotes by the compiler so it's treated as one
string literal instead of a list.
Hi, i have a listbox with multiple selection enabled, the end user uses this listbox to select what data they want to view eg. they select "green" to view all the green cars, "red" to select all the red cars etc. i have the listbox as the control that is connected to the datasource (the sql used for it is select * from cars_table where color =@colorthis works fine when one item in the listbox is selected, but when multiples are selected it does not work what format does the =@color have to be when multiples are selected? i've tried "green, red" "green + red" etc. but cannot seem to get it workingdoes anybody have any working examples that i can take a look at? it seems to be a common action, yet i cannot seem to find any documentation on how to get it to workthanks in advance!
I have a form where a user can select multiple items from a listbox control.How can I pass each item selected to a sproc? Do i need to created a paramter for each item in my listbox in my sproc?Has anyone done this, I dont want to create dynamic sql to handle this and i dont really want to create 100 parameters to handle my listbox items.thanks
I have a listbox and SqlDataSource. I am not sure how to take the multiple value that are selected in listbox and use it to generate a sqlquery.Below I have shown that if I hard code it in the Command statement it works but I not sure how to take it from a variable or the listbox. ---------------------------------------------------------- <asp:ListBox ID="ListBox1" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" DataTextField="Name" DataValueField="Name" SelectionMode="Multiple" Width="341px"></asp:ListBox>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT classifieds_Ads.Id, classifieds_Ads.MemberId, classifieds_Ads.CategoryId, classifieds_Ads.Title, classifieds_Ads.Description, classifieds_Categories.Name, classifieds_Ads.Price, classifieds_Ads.Location, classifieds_Ads.ExpirationDate, classifieds_Ads.DateCreated FROM classifieds_Ads INNER JOIN classifieds_Categories ON classifieds_Ads.CategoryId = classifieds_Categories.Id WHERE ([Name] IN ('ALASKA','alabama'))"> <SelectParameters> <asp:ControlParameter Name="Name" ControlID="listbox1" PropertyName="SelectedValue" /> </SelectParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource> --------------------------------------------------------
I am wandering how to "Properly do this" Without doing a dynamic SP. How do I do a search with the multiple listbox data. What do I pass the stored procedure? SELECT ID, LAST_NAME || ', ' || FIRST_NAME AS FULLNAMEFROM BIT_USER1WHERE (TYPE_ID = 1) OR (TYPE_ID = 3) OR (TYPE_ID = 4) OR (TYPE_ID = 5) OR (BLDG_ID = 1) OR (BLDG_ID = 2)ORDER BY LAST_NAME, FIRST_NAME
Sorry if this is to basic but I am just starting out. Any help is appreciated.
Basically I am attempting to populate a listbox with items from a MSSQL DB so the user can select either one or multiple items in that listbox to search on.
Basically, using ASP.NET 2.0 and here is my problem,
Get data from table Put into array Split where there is a + remove +'s assign to listbox to give a list of everything in that table
The + split the courses, so in my Order table I have A + B + C etc and I want all of the different options in a list box (note different records have different entries it isn't always a b c)
I am testing my code, here is what I got
Public Sub TitleChange(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal E As EventArgs) Try Dim DBConn As SqlConnection Dim DSPageData As DataSet = New DataSet() Dim VarTxtAOE As String DBConn = New SqlConnection("Server=SD02;Initial Catalog=WhoGetsWhat;Persist Security Info=True;UID=x;Password=XXX") 'Dim DBDataAdapter As SqlDataAdapter DBDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter("Select AOE FROM TBL_Role WHERE Title = @ddlTitle", DBConn) DBDataAdapter.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@ddlTitle", SqlDbType.NVarChar) DBDataAdapter.SelectCommand.Parameters("@ddlTitle").Value = TitleDropDown.SelectedValue DBDataAdapter.Fill(DSPageData, "Courses") 'Need to find out what this rows business is about whats the number about? and am I doing it correct? 'txtAOE.Text = DSPageData.Tables("Courses").Rows(0).Item("AOE") 'txtAOE.Items.Add(New ListItem(DSPageData.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("AOE"))) VarTxtAOE = DSPageData.Tables("Courses").Rows(0).Item("AOE") Dim VarArray() As String = VarTxtAOE.Split("+") Response.Write(VarArray()) txtAOE.DataSource = VarArray() txtAOE.DataBind() 'Response.Write(test) 'ListBox1.DataSource = test 'Response.Write(VarArray) Catch TheException As Exception lblerror.Text = "Error occurred: " & TheException.ToString() End Try End Sub My response.Write works correctly, but my list box doesn't, also I don't want to say which bit of the array like I have done using 1, I just want to display the whole array in my list box. I am not worrying about removing the +'s at the minute, just splitting my data and putting each section into a listbox
Maybe I am going about this the wrong way, but I have been trying a lot of different things and its hard to find any help
Hi. With VWD i've produced the following code.<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:50469ConnectionString %>"SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [ibs] WHERE ([liedID] = @liedID)"><SelectParameters><asp:ControlParameter ControlID="ListBox1" Name="liedID" PropertyName="SelectedValue" Type="Int16" />But the query is only returning one row of the table. Even when multiple values were selected in the ListBox1. Could someone tell me how to do?Thanks, Kin Wei.
I am having a 1st listbox which is populating production lines, 2nd combobox to populate the production units. From here , the user will be able to select multiple production units from the combobox and hence populate the variable in listbox 3.
This is the query that I'm using to query on the variable table: 'SELECT DISTINCT PU_Id,Var_Id,Var_Desc from Variables where PU_Id IN (@ProductionUnits)'
The problem now is that this would return all the variables for the selected production units and for those variables that have the same name, they would appear in the listbox as duplicates.
I wonder if there's any way to filter off or remove the duplicates in the listbox 3 by using sql query?
How can i get ALL the selected items into the database? this loop only accepts one item. I have tried with a "clear" action, does not work.... protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (Page.IsValid) { // Define data objects SqlConnection conn; SqlCommand comm; // Open the connection string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString; // Initialize connection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString); // Create command comm = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO TestTabel (TestNavn) VALUES (@TestNavn)",conn); // Add command parameters foreach (ListItem item in TestListBox.Items) { if (item.Selected) { comm.Parameters.Add("@TestNavn", System.Data.SqlDbType.NVarChar); comm.Parameters["@TestNavn"].Value = Item.Text; } } // Enclose database code in Try-Catch-Finally try { // Open the connection conn.Open(); // Execute the command comm.ExecuteNonQuery(); // Reload page if the query executed successfully Response.Redirect("Default.aspx"); } catch(Exception Arg) { Response.Write(Arg.Message); // Display error message Label1.Text = "Error !"; } finally { // Close the connection conn.Close(); } } }
Hi, I have SQL database 2000 which has one table Sheet1, I retrieved the columns in the ListBox, then chosed some of them and moved it to ListBox2. The past scenario worked great, and I checked the moved values, it was succesfully moved, but when I tried to copy the values in ArrayList to do a select statement it didn't worked at all. public string str;protected void Button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {ArrayList itemsSelected = new ArrayList(); string sep = ","; //string str;for (int i = 0; i < ListBox2.Items.Count; i++) {if (ListBox2.Items[i].Selected) { itemsSelected.Add(ListBox2.Items[i].Value); } int itemsSelCount = itemsSelected.Count; // integer variable which holds the count of the selected items. str = ListBox2.Items[i].Value + sep; Response.Write(str); } SqlConnection SqlCon = new SqlConnection("Data Source=AJ-166DCCD87;Initial Catalog=stat_rpt;Integrated Security=True;Pooling=False"); String SQL1 = "SELECT " + str + " from Sheet1"; SqlDataAdapter Adptr = new SqlDataAdapter(SQL1, SqlCon); SqlCommandBuilder CB = new SqlCommandBuilder(Adptr);DataTable Dt = new DataTable(); Adptr.Fill(Dt); //return Dt; GridView1.DataBind(); SqlCon.Close(); } I did some changes and the new error message is Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'from'. Thank you
Hi everyone, not sure if a this topic has been covered yet (a have been looking all day), but as I am still very new to this, my problem is as follows: In the Try .. Catch block below, data is posted from a form and the SqlCommand.ExecuteScalar() statement returns a Unique Job ID. I am attempting to populate a subordinate table for qualifications which are selected from a ListBox, but rather than using qualification titles, I am using the values. My problem is that only one value (the first) gets posted multiple times, when multiple values are selected. Looking at the For Each loop in the inner Try Catch block, I am wondering whether there is some sort of Index pointer that needs to be incremented, in order to establish new values further down the list. I have seen no evidence that this is the case, save for the fact that the value stalls on just the first. Any help would be appreciated. ===== CODE === Try C4LConnection.Open() JobPostingID = SqlJobPost.ExecuteScalar()Response.Write("<br />Selected Item: " & Qualifications.SelectedItem.Value) Try ' Multiple Qualification EntriesSqlQualPost.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@JobPostingID", SqlDbType.Int)) SqlQualPost.Parameters("@JobPostingID").Value = Int32.Parse(JobPostingID)SqlQualPost.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@QualificationID", SqlDbType.Int)) SqlQualPost.Parameters("@QualificationID").Value = Int32.Parse(Qualifications.SelectedItem.Value) If Qualifications.SelectedIndex > -1 ThenFor Each Item In Qualifications.Items If Item.Selected ThenResponse.Write("<br />SelectedItem Value: " & Qualifications.SelectedItem.Text) QualPostingID = SqlQualPost.ExecuteScalar()SqlQualPost.Parameters("@QualificationID").Value = Int32.Parse(Qualifications.SelectedItem.Value) Response.Write("<br />Selected Item: " & Qualifications.SelectedItem.Value) End If Next End IfCatch Exp As SqlException failJobPost = True lblError.Visible = TruelblError.Text = "Could not add qualifications <br />" & Exp.Message End Try failJobPost = FalseCatch Exp As SqlException failJobPost = True lblError.Visible = TruelblError.Text = "Error: could not post job to database <br />" & Exp.Message Finally C4LConnection.Close() End Try
I have seen some information on this but have not understood fully the answers. I am fairly new to this and have spent the afternoon trying to work on this and although I have leant some really cool things I am no nearer. How do I get selected values from a LIstbox into a SQL statement using the IN command First I loop through a List box control to get the multi selected values: Dim li As ListItemFor Each li In lbPClass.Items If li.Selected = True Then strPC += li.Value & ", " End IfNextLabel5.Text = strPC The result in the lable looks something like: 100, 101, 102 , I get rid of the trailing blank and commar with:Label6.Text = Left(Label5.Text, Trim(Len(Label5.Text) - 2)) I have created a parameter called @PROPCLASS that will use the values from the selected values in the listbox in a SQL query using an IN statement: Cmd.Parameters.Add(New OleDbParameter("@PROPCLASS", Label6.Text)) strSQL = "SELECT * FROM web_transfer WHERE ( PROP_CLASS IN (@PROPCLASS)) AND (ACRES >= @lowSize)AND (ACRES < @HighSize) AND (YEAR = @lowYear)AND (SALE_PRICE > @lowPrice) AND (SALE_PRICE < @highPrice) " It is really the first bit of the WHERE clause I am interested in. The sql statement works if I either type in the actual values IN( 100, 101,102) or if I select only one value in the list box. If I select two then the sql statement does not work. My question is: How do I get the values selected in the List box into my SQL statement Thank you in advance, s
I want that the user can chose several options from one ‘listbox’, and to do this, I have created two ‘listbox’, in the first one there are the options to select, and the second one is empty. Then, in order to select the options I want the user have select one or more options from the first ‘listbox’ and then click in a link to pass the options selected to the second ‘listbox’. Thus, the valid options selected will be the text and values in the second ‘listbox’. I have seen this system in some websites, and I think it is very clear.
Well, my question is, Is it possible to insert into the database all the values from a ‘listbox’ control? In my case from the second ‘listbox’ with all the values passed from the first one? If yes, in my database table I have to create one column (field) for every possible selected option?
hello forum, I need to grab a string value from a list box in from a web form, and pass it to a sql select command statement where that value is equal toall values in a database table(sql 2000). example zip code list box3315433254 845788547535454 selected value is 85475 I am putting that value in a string like this: dim string_zip as stringstring_zip = zip_ListBox.text Question, how do i pass that value to sql stament, i am using this but does not work.

I build my SQL statement with these values like so: SELECT * FROM POO WHERE COMPANY = 'foo' AND DAY = 2
The problem I am having is when there are multiple values of the same type in the list box. Say: lstCriteria.items(1).value = "COMPANY = 'foo'" lstCriteria.items(2).value = "DAY= 2" lstCriteria.items(1).value = "COMPANY = 'moo'"
My employer wants this to be valid, but I am having a tough time coming up with a solution.
I know that my SQL statement needs to now read: SELECT * FROM POO WHERE COMPANY = 'foo' AND DAY = 2 OR COMPANY = 'poo' AND DAY = 2
I have code set up to read the values of each list box item up to the "=". And I know that I need to compair this value with the others in the list box...but I am not running into any good solutions.
I have an ASP.NET form that stores it's data in MSDE but I just added a multi-select ListBox to the form and I'm having a hard time coming up with a way of writing that data to the database. Should I write the values into a column on the same table where I store the rest of the data from the form (values separated by a comma) or shouild I create another table (one to many) and store the data there. I like the second option, but I'm not sure how to loop through each value and write it to the database table.
I grab the values for the selection as follow:
foreach (ListItem lstItem in lbAttendees.Items) { if (lstItem.Selected == true) { grpList.Add(lstItem.Value.ToString()); } }
but I'm not sure on what to do next and could use some help.
Any ideas on how I can send multiple values from a listbox to a stored procedure? right now I have a ListBox Control called lbCategory, and I want to pass multiple selected items to a stored procedure. <asp:SqlDataSource ID="dsFS" runat="server" ConnectionString="someConnectionString" SelectCommand="usp_FS" SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure"> <SelectParameters> <asp:ControlParameter ControlID="lbCategory" DefaultValue="%" Name="category" PropertyName="SelectedValue" type="String" /> </SelectParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>

hi i have a listbox with selectedmode = multiple, i am currently using this code in my code behind (c#) to call the storedprocedure within the datasource but its not working: Do i have to write specific code in c# to send the mulitple values through?protected void confButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { try {foreach (ListItem item in authorsListBox4.Items) {if (item.Selected) { AddConfSqlDataSource.Insert(); } }saveStatusLabel.Text = "Save Successfull: The above publication has been saved"; }catch (Exception ex) {saveStatusLabel.Text = "Save Failed: The above publication failed to save" + ex.Message; } }
Stuck in a spot and hoping someone will nudge me in the right direction....
I'm trying to write to a sql db via a storedprocedure using a parameter. i'm pretty certain the below statement is causing the problem. but i'm not sure how to properly refer to it....
Dim connString As String connString = "integrated security=false;user id=sa;server=HCENT1;database=LicenseRenewal;persist security info=False" Dim myConnection As New SqlConnection(connString) Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand("InsertPage1", myConnection) myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure ' .......other (working) parameter statements......... Dim parameterDates As New SqlParameter("@Dates", SqlDbType.VarChar, 4000) parameterDates.Value = Session("lstDates") myCommand.Parameters.Add(parameterDates)
the session("lstDates") is the contents of lstDates.Items (listbox) from a previous page. i'm guessing its not valid to refer to it as a varchar, can someone point me to the proper way to handle this?
How must I change the mdx that is generated for the available values for a user parameter in order to get the content sorted?

I have a quite big SQL query which would be nice to be used using UNION betweern two Select and Where clauses. I noticed that if both Select clauses have Where part between UNION other is ignored. How can I prevent this?
I found a article in StackOverflow saying that if UNION has e.g. two Selects with Where conditions other one will not work. [URL] ....
I have installed SQL Server 2014 and I tried to use tricks mentioned in StackOverflow's article but couldn't succeeded.
Any example how to write two Selects with own Where clauses and those Selects are joined with UNION?
