Hello...Can someone help me?I´m getting info of a product via sqldatasource in this way:<asp:SqlDataSource ID="myData" runat="server" ConnectionString="..." SelectCommand="spGetProduct" SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure"> <SelectParameters> <asp:QueryStringParameter Name="Id" QueryStringField="Id" Type="String" /> </SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource>In my ASPX page I get the data in this way:<asp:Repeater ID="repProduct" runat="server" DataSourceID="myData"> <ItemTemplate> <p><%# Eval ( "ProductName") %></p> </ItemTemplate></asp:Repeater> My problem is in my code behind because I need some data from this DataSource.For example, I want the Product Name as the page title. So the question is how I get something like this in my code behind:protected void Page_Load ( object sender, EventArgs e ){ this.Page.Title = Eval ( "ProductName") ;}Thanks!
hi to all,i am kinda crazy now... i have this problem regarding codebehind codes... i am kinda still a beginner...can you please give me an example of codebehind codes in which selectcommand (and other commands) in sqldatasource to be written in aspx.vb not on aspx..on how to execute it and so as its parameters...i know that those commands are easy to configure on aspx page... but there some reasons why i need to put it in aspx.vb page... so is there any way...? is my problem clear?hoping for a reply asap.. thank you...
I am trying to use the SQLDataSource from the codebehind. However, I have a problem accessting the ConnectionString.I declare my connection string in my web.config file, and I declare this as:Dim DBConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DbConnString").ConnectionString)My problem arises though when I get to the SQLDataSource. How can I reference DBConn via the SQLDataSource.ConnectionString?Karls
Hi, I have a SQLDataSource, button, textbox, and label. I take the text from the textbox, count it's occurance in the database, then assign the number to the label. The code works but I would like to provide a button that will execute/invoke the SQLDataSource. I have this in the click event for the button: Me.label1.Text = SqlDataSource1.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty) How do I execute a SQLDataSource from the code-behind for the button click event? Thanks.
This is probably an easy one. What is best way to determine if a SqlDataSource is empty (i.e. the query produced no results) in the CodeBehind? I'm using this: if (SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand.Contains(String.Empty)) { //Add code for scenario here. } It seems to work, but something just doesn't feel right about it for some reason. Thanks
I have a database with columnsuserOwnListsuserID uniqueidentifieruserName nvarchar100userList nvrachar100createdDateI have created successfully a gridview controller to edit these values in database. The Gridview data is populated by SqlDataSource.I have also created a EmptyDataTemplate and created a form into it. There is only one textBox and submit button to create the First entry to userOwnLists -table.Now I collect the value from EmptyDataTemplate textbox with id userList1 and create a codebehind logic for the submitbutton.protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { TextBox listName = (TextBox)this.FindControl("listName1", GridView1.Controls);SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters["userId"].DefaultValue = Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey; SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters["userName"].DefaultValue = Membership.GetUser().UserName.ToString(); SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters["listName"].DefaultValue = listName.Text; SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters["createdDate"].DefaultValue = DateTime.Now.ToString(); SqlDataSource1.Insert(); }The problem is now that I get error: Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Implicit conversion from data type sql_variant to uniqueidentifier is not allowed. Use the CONVERT function to run this query.OK. So I Googled a bit and found this:http://scottonwriting.net/sowblog/posts/4690.aspxMy Question is: How do I convert userId so I can insert it to database successfully?This does not work:String userId = Membership.GetUser().ProviderUserKey.ToString(); SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters["userId"].DefaultValue = Convert.ToString(userId);
Hi, I am a newbie in using ASP.NET 2.0 and ADO.NET. I wrote a hangman game and want to record statistics at the end of each game. I will create and update records in the database for each authenticated user as well as a record for the Anonymous, unauthenticated user. After a win or loss has occurred, I want to programmatically use the SQLDataSource control to increment the statistics counters for the appropriate record in the database (note I don't want to show anything or get user input for this function). I need a VB.NET codebehind example that will show me how I should set up the parameters and update the appropriate record in the database. Below is my code. What happens now is that the program chugs along happily (no errors), but the database record does not actually get updated. I have done many searches on this forum and on the general Internet for programmatic examples of an update sequence of code. If there is a tutorial for this online or a book, I'm happy to check it out. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Lets say I have a Sqldatasource that uses the following SelectCommand="SELECT category,name FROM table". How do I get the value on category from my datasource in code behind if I know that my selectcommand always will return one row? Can I write something like datasource.items["category"].Value? Thanks for your help!
Hey All, I'm very new to ASP.NET and have recently begun using the databinding functionality. So far, all I've had to do is drag and drop the various controls and then use the data source wizard to set up an appropriate query. However, now I've got a bit of a different need. In the VB codebehind, i need to be able to ask whether something is true in the database, and then if it is, carry out functions. So, for example, what I need to do is: if (SQLStatement "Select charttype FROM charts WHERE datasource = " & dropdownlist1.selecteditem.tostring()) Then 'do whatever end if Trouble is, I don't know how I would go about binding the data so that I could access it in this way. Any guidance would be very much appreciated. Thanks,J Rankin

I have a stored procedure that returns a resultset AND an output parameter, pseudocode:myspGetPoll@pollID int,@totalvoters int outputselect questionID,question from [myPoll] where pollID=@pollID @totalvoters=(select count(usercode) from [myPoll] where pollID=@pollID)1. In my code behind I'd like to read both the rows (questionID and question) as well as total results (totalvoters) How could I do so?2. what would be the signature of my function so that I can retreive BOTH a resultset AND a single value?e.g.: private function getPollResults(byval pollID as integer, byref totalvoters as integer) as datasetwhile reader.read dataset.addrow <read from result>end whiletotalvoters=<read from result>end functionThanks!
I have a page containing a FormView, which gets its data from a SqlDataSource control and displays details of a job. Two of the fields are location and job title. I want to re-use this data to create a dynamic page title. I know I can do this by setting the Page.Title to what I want to, but do I have access to the data outside of the FormView to which the data source is bound? If so how? Or will I have to perform an additional SELECT statement to get this data again?
and what this does is fills the dataset with the information from the select command in the dataadapter and then gets the value for the first row of the fieldname
It doesnt seem like this should be that big of a deal, but it has become very frustrating trying to find the answer, does anyone know how to do this? Please post some demo code if possible
Hi Everybody,I have an ordinary SqlDataSource on my page <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:P4SConnection %>" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:P4SConnection.ProviderName %>" SelectCommand="SELECT CO_Id,CT_Name,CO_Username,CO_Password,CO_Company,CO_Email,CT_Id,CT_Position,CT_Admin, CO_Session,CO_LastLogin FROM company_contact LEFT JOIN company ON company_contact.CT_Company = company.CO_Id WHERE (CT_Username= & LCase(txtName.Text) & "> </asp:SqlDataSource>How do i use any of these values?I know I can display the values in a GridView or something but I dont want to display them.I originaly was using ODBC and just used the followingDim Row As DataRow = thisTable.Rows(0) Dim lP_ID As String = Row(0).ToString() Dim TheContact As String = Row(1).ToString() Dim theName As String = Row(2).ToString() Dim thePassword As String = Row(3).ToString() Dim TheCompany As String = Row(4).ToString() Dim TheEmail As String = Row(5).ToString() Dim lP_ContactID As String = Row(6).ToString() Dim ThePosition As String = Row(7).ToString() Dim bAdmin As Boolean = Row(8).ToString() Dim sP_Session As String = Row(9).ToString() Dim sP_Last As String = Row(10).ToString()Then I could use the values wherever I wanted.How do I do this with a SqlDataSource?Thanks,G
Okay, I used the SQLDataSource control to get my data from the database table. What or how do I retrieve individual data from the sqldatasource? I want to do some string comparison and manipulation before I display it to the browser. How can this be accomplish?
Hello all,I have what I think should be a simple problem to solve but I just don't quite understand what to do (.NET Framework Developer Center confused me :( ).My code should load the highest SiteID, known as Last_ID into the siteIdBox when the form is in insert mode. My difficulty is in understanding how to use the sqlDataSource correctly. Dim dsLastId As New SqlDataSource() Dim siteIdBox As TextBox Dim dsmLastId As SqlDataSourceMode If FV_Site.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Insert Then Try dsLastId.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("AquaConnectionString1").ToString dsLastId.SelectCommandType = SqlDataSourceCommandType.Text dsLastId.SelectCommand = "SELECT MAX(Site_ID) AS Last_ID FROM Tbl_Site"
dsmLastId = SqlDataSourceMode.DataReader
siteIdBox.Text = dsmLastId.?????
Finally dsLastId = Nothing End Try End If If anyone could tell me the code for getting the value from the select statement into the textbox, I would be most grateful.Thank you, m00sie.
I have a process that inserts a new record using the InsertCommand of a SqlDataSource. As part of the process, I need to insert data the is available in a different SqlDataSource. I was trying this with the Insert Parameter:
[I am new to asp.net] Assume I have a databse for "products"; product id is a primary key. Here is what I am trying to: 1.

Background:I am using Visual Studio 2005 Standard SP1 to create an ASP.NET website that accesses an SQL 2005 database. I am using vb.net as well.I am passing an ID in a query string from one page to the next, where I retrieve it using an SQLDataSource. The data will only be one row; it is returning customer information.Problem:I need to be able to get specific fields from the SQLDataSource and populate some textboxes. Honestly, I'm not really sure where to begin. For the sake of argument, let's say that I am working with this:'My TextboxDim LastName As Textbox'My SQLDataSource (filtered by query string using the customer's ID to only get 1 customer's information at a time)SQLDataQuestion:So, how would I go about retrieving the lastname field from SQLData and inserting it into the textbox LastName?Thanks, J'Tok
1st of all i'm using 3.5 and c#. On my page I have 2 sqldatasource controls. sds1 and sds2 In my select statement of sds2 how do I make a select parameter based on a value or column I return from sds1? And please don't tell me to join my sds2 select in sds1, I don't want to do that. I need two seperate sds.
Hello, every one! This is my first post on the forum. I got some questions about caching data with SqlDataSource controls in asp.net 2005. Here are them: According to the vs.net 2005 documents, SqlDataSource controls will sustain an individual cache for each combination of ConnectionString, SelectCommand and values of SelectParameters. But how about FilterExpression and FilterParameters? If I enable caching and change the FilterExpression or values of FilterParameters, will the SelectCommand be reexcuted, or will the databinding controls just get data from the existing cache? And will multiple SqlDataSource controls with the same combination of ConnectionString, SelectCommand and values of SelectParameters share a common cache, or sustain caches of their own?
I am using a drap and drop SQLDataSource control. Everything works like I am wanting it to, but I want to check a value from one of the fields that I have retrieved. I am lost as how to retreive just the field. If I have to create another dataset to do the work what is the point of using the drag and drop control? I would really like to just access the dataset fields as needed.
In asp.net 3.5..... To get the number of rows returned when the select is executed....... Protected Sub SqlDataSource1_Selected(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs) Handles SqlDataSource1.Selected Session("MessageText") = e.AffectedRows & " Profile(s)"End Sub How do you get the number of rows returned when you apply a filter expression to a selection of rows? Thanks Craig
hi,im just a newbie in asp.net.i have my sqldatasource and a label. i want to get the data from sqldatasource to the label. how can i do that.need codes
I am just now starting the switch from .NET 1.1 to .NET 2.0. I really like the new way of using the SQLDataSource and setting up Views declaratively as opposed to doing it all in code, which brings me to my question.In some of my applications I have a single Stored Procedure return multiple result sets to a single DataSet where I have a DataRelation set up. Then I can have nested DataGrids that use the GetChildRows() method to filter the results to display the hierarchical data. I would like to do something similar with the SQLDataSource and GridViews but haven't found a way to get multiple result sets.One thought I had was to create a Strongly Typed Dataset and then use the ObjectDataSource object, but I still didn't see a way to get child rows out of the datasource. I've seen an example that uses a <FilterParameter> to get nested data, but there is an extra trip made to the server for each parent item as it just put an extra parameter in the WHERE clause of the query.
I have a sqldatasource in the markup. This is in turn connected to a Gridview. I use Eval to retrieve the database information in the markup but I also need the Eval information in code behind. How can I do this? I got this far but how (if it's possible this way) can I retrive it? Protected Sub Test(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowDataBound If (e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow) Then this is where i want to get the "MyData" value from the database. End If ........
First let me give you a little back ground on me. I'm very new to the ASP, ASP.NET, Visual Studio, Sql Server, Frameworks....thing. I am coming over from a PHP/MySql background of over 5 years. The change over to VBScript and VB has been to tough and I have a basic liking for the Visual Studio 2005 and the ease of putting things together. However, I have come across something that to me seems like it should be relatively simple, but haven't been able to find the documentation or samples to describe what I'm looking to do. Rough Need: 1. Start with a form will a couple labels and a singe textbox to get the lookup date from an user. 2. Query one table/view based on the users choice of date and select only one field of returned data.(Doing this by itself is not a problem and I can display my results in a Gridview, but this is where it starts getting tricky and the gridviews won't work for me.) 3. If there is something returned, I need to start a HTML table layout or possibly some form of a Gridview(I don't see how I would use the Gridview) and start a loop, adding the first returned row from this query into the first cell. 4. Now, based on that same User Date and the returned row value from the previous query, I need to query another Table/view and return another single field, which might return 1 or multiple rows, which I need to start a loop to display unique items in cells under the first on above. 5. Based on the original User Date and each returned row from the first query, I need to query two other Table/views and get some additional information. 4-5 fields will be returned and be displayed on one row in the number of necessary columns. 6. This would finish the first row from the first query, so I would need to loop back up to see if there were any further results and continue looping until the get to the last of the results from the first query. 7. Finally, I would just need to close up the Table/gridview. The basic results I'm looking for would be similar to the following: Results for 10/11/2005
Field name 1 Field name 2 Field name 3 Field name 4 Field name 5
First Result from query 11 of 4 results from Query 2, but only 1 unique result
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3. Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Second Result from query 1First result from Query 2 after looping though the first query Second result from Query 2 after looping though the first query
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3. Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4
Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 3 Info from Query 4 Info from Query 4 It seems me from what I have read and slowly figuring out, is that I should be able to directly access the DataSet returned by four SqlDataSources, one for each of the above querys and then just write my own VB to handle the necessary looping, table format and such. I can easily add the for SqlDataSources to the page and add a Gridview for each one and get 4 separate chunks of info, but can't see a way with GridViews to intermingle the info like displayed above. So, if it can be done with Gridviews, then I would love to see how that is done. But, if someone could explain to me how I access the DataSets directly that I get from the 4 SqlDataSources, then that would be ok too. I have figured enough out with VB, that I can write the code to do my looping requirements, if I can just access the information I get back. Thanks for reading all the way through this long post. Jack
