Checking The SELECT Statement For An SqlDataAdapter
Sep 21, 2006
I'm trying to pass a querystring to an SqlDataAdapter object. To check if the query is a valid SELECT statement, I simply use a try-catch. But dispite the try-catch it still accepts valid INSERT statements. However, in the parameterlist of the SqlDataAdapter the required parameter is a Transact SQL SELECT statement or a stored procedure... Am I doing something wrong? Here is my code:try
{
my_conn = conn_open();
da = new SqlDataAdapter(query, my_conn);
da.Fill(result.resultDataset);
my_conn.Dispose();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
result.errMsg = "Database Error: " + e.Message;
result.success = false;
} Kehil
I'm wanting to create a if statement that will query a table and check for a duplicate and if there is a duplicate return that uniqueID or if it doesnt find a duplicate continue to add a new record...so here is my question is there a way to run a if statement that will call a function (lets say a function that returns like a bool) and if it finds a duplicate grab that id and store it in a session.....i guess my question is how do i query the database for a record and if found return true if not return false....that is my question....
select name, address, city from table1 I want to append address +'-' + city in this query . I want to show hyphen only if both address and city are not null. If name is null then I don't want to show hyphen. How can I get around this problem. Any help will be appreciated.
Is it normal practice to check for @@ERROR after a SELECT statement that retrieves data from a table OR we should only check for @@ERROR after a DELETE/INSERT/UPDATE type of statement? The SQL statement is inside a transaction.
I am currently having this problem with gridview and detailview. When I drag either onto the page and set my select statement to pick from one table and then update that data through the gridview (lets say), the update works perfectly. My problem is that the table I am pulling data from is mainly foreign keys. So in order to hide the number values of the foreign keys, I select the string value columns from the tables that contain the primary keys. I then use INNER JOIN in my SELECT so that I only get the data that pertains to the user I am looking to list and edit. I run the "test query" and everything I need shows up as I want it. I then go back to the gridview and change the fields which are foreign keys to templates. When I edit the templates I bind the field that contains the string value of the given foreign key to the template. This works great, because now the user will see string representation instead of the ID numbers that coinside with the string value. So I run my webpage and everything show up as I want it to, all the data is correct and I get no errors. I then click edit (as I have checked the "enable editing" box) and the gridview changes to edit mode. I make my changes and then select "update." When the page refreshes, and the gridview returns, the data is not updated and the original data is shown. I am sorry for so much typing, but I want to be as clear as possible with what I am doing. The only thing I can see being the issue is that when I setup my SELECT and FROM to contain fields from multiple tables, the UPDATE then does not work. When I remove all of my JOIN's and go back to foreign keys and one table the update works again. Below is what I have for my SQL statements:------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SELECT:SELECT People.FirstName, People.LastName, People.FullName, People.PropertyID, People.InviteTypeID, People.RSVP, People.Wheelchair, Property.[House/Day Hab], InviteType.InviteTypeName FROM (InviteType INNER JOIN (Property INNER JOIN People ON Property.PropertyID = People.PropertyID) ON InviteType.InviteTypeID = People.InviteTypeID) WHERE (People.PersonID = ?)UPDATE:UPDATE [People] SET [FirstName] = ?, [LastName] = ?, [FullName] = ?, [PropertyID] = ?, [InviteTypeID] = ?, [RSVP] = ?, [Wheelchair] = ? WHERE [PersonID] = ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The only fields I want to update are in [People]. My WHERE is based on a control that I use to select a person from a drop down list. If I run the test query for the update while setting up my data source the query will update the record in the database. It is when I try to make the update from the gridview that the data is not changed. If anything is not clear please let me know and I will clarify as much as I can. This is my first project using ASP and working with databases so I am completely learning as I go. I took some database courses in college but I have never interacted with them with a web based front end. Any help will be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance for any time, help, and/or advice you can give.Brian
Ok I have a query "SELECT ColumnNames FROM tbl1" let's say the values returned are "age,sex,race".
Now I want to be able to create an "update" statement like "UPATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race" dynamically and execute this UPDATE statement. So, if the next select statement returns "age, sex, race, gender" then the script should create "UPDATE tbl2 SET Col2 = age + sex + race + gender" and execute it.
hiI need to write a stored procedure that takes input parameters,andaccording to these parameters the retrieved fields in a selectstatement are chosen.what i need to know is how to make the fields of the select statementconditional,taking in consideration that it is more than one fieldaddedfor exampleSQLStmt="select"if param1 thenSQLStmt=SQLStmt+ field1end ifif param2 thenSQLStmt=SQLStmt+ field2end if
Code Block SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02' FROM myTables WHERE Conditions are true ORDER BY Field01
The results are just as I need:
Field01 Field02
------------- ----------------------
192473 8461760
192474 22810
Because other reasons. I need to modify that query to:
Code Block SELECT DISTINCT Field01 AS 'Field01', Field02 AS 'Field02' INTO AuxiliaryTable FROM myTables WHERE Conditions are true ORDER BY Field01 SELECT DISTINCT [Field02] FROM AuxTable The the results are:
Field02
----------------------
22810 8461760
And what I need is (without showing any other field):
Field02
----------------------
8461760 22810
Is there any good suggestion? Thanks in advance for any help, Aldo.

hi it looks like my thread has been deleted but I keep on asking. When trying to connect to a table i a SQL2005 database in a vb.Net webapplication I get the following error message from the wizard: "The wizard detected the following errors when configuring the data adapter "SqlDataAdapter1".
"Check" Generated SELECT Statement "Check" Generated Mappings "Warning" Generated INSERT Statement There were errors configuring the data adapter "Warning" Generated UPDATE Statement There were errors configuring the data adapter "Warning" Generated DELETE Statement There were errors configuring the data adapter"
The same connection works fine in a vb6 application. I have seen other threads concerning this in this forum but I can't find any answers. Any ideas anyone? ciao chris
Hi guys. Does anybody have any clue about how to create a class which inherits from SqlDataAdapter? I tried but looks like SqlDataAdapter is not inheritable. I would like to extend it with some custom method such as a method which fills a Dataset (used with a DataGrid) with the only few records to display per page (say 20) against the thousand records it might instead contain otherwise.Any workarounds? Many thanks in advance for your help.
Hi I am writing an app in flash which needs to hook up to MS SQL via asp.I need the code below to pass the var (ptodaysDate) to the sql statement. I can hard code it in and it works great but I really need to pass the var from flash.Pulling my hair out here, not much left to go.Any help greatly appreciated.---------------------------------------------- [WebMethod] public Schedule[] getSchedule(int ptodaysDate) { SqlDataAdapter adpt = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT scheduleID, roomName, eventType,unitName,groupName,staffName,staffName2,theDate,theEnd FROM tb_schedule Where theDate >= @rtodaysDate", connString); SqlParameter rtodaysDate = new SqlParameter("@rtodaysDate", ptodaysDate); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); ArrayList al = new ArrayList(); adpt.Fill(ds); foreach (DataRow row in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { Schedule obj = new Schedule(); obj.scheduleID = (int)row["scheduleID"]; obj.roomName = (string)row["roomName"]; obj.eventType = (string)row["eventType"]; obj.unitName = (string)row["unitName"]; obj.groupName = (string)row["groupName"]; obj.staffName = (string)row["staffName"]; obj.staffName2 = (string)row["staffName2"]; obj.theDate = (string)row["theDate"]; obj.theEnd = (string)row["theEnd"]; al.Add(obj); } Schedule[] outArray = (Schedule[])al.ToArray(typeof(Schedule)); return outArray; } public class Schedule { public int scheduleID; public string roomName; public string eventType; public string unitName; public string groupName; public string staffName; public string staffName2; public string theDate; public string theEnd; }
It's a pretty basic question but I haven't been able to find any examples out there. I dimmed a dataadapter and would like to reuse later in my code (line 3 in the code below). What is the correct syntax to do this? Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM myTable", conn)da.Fill(myDataTable)da.______ ("SELECT * FROM myTable2", conn)da.Fill(myDataTable2)
I'm working on a project to dynamically create PDFs with content from an SQL server. My current approach is to get the data I need into a DataSet using SqlDataAdapter, write the DataSet to a stream as XML, transform the XML into FO and then output a pdf using FOP. For some reason I get the following exception "System.NullReferenceException - Object reference not set to an instance of an object" when I try to set the SelectCommand property of my data adapter. Code for the project follows:Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim con As SqlConnection Dim cmd As SqlCommand Dim IDlist As String Dim keyidary As Array Dim query As String Dim tempxml As Stream query = "*****query is valid and very long, so it's not included here*****" IDlist = Request.Form("chosenIDs") keyidary = Split(IDlist, ",") Dim makequery As New StringBuilder(query) For Each ID As String In keyidary makequery.Append(" OR (KeyID = '" & ID & "')") Next query = makequery.ToString() 'Response.Write(query) When uncommented this prints the query just fine 'Response.End() Try con = New SqlConnection con.ConnectionString = "****Connection String is valid****" cmd = New SqlCommand cmd.CommandText = query cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text cmd.Connection = con Dim adpt As SqlDataAdapter adpt.SelectCommand = cmd 'Response.Write(query) When these are above or between the previous 2 statements, query is printed, 'Response.End() otherwise I get the error described above.

Hi all, I have datatable having around 50 rows and 3 columns ID, Name and ExpVal, which is an expression columns,where the values can be any SQL functions Like REPLICATE(), SOUNDEX ( 'value' ) Or REVERSE ( 'value' )..... i want to insert each row in that datatable like INSERT INTO TAB1 ( ID, Name, ExpVal) VALUES (1, 'some name', SOUNDEX ( 'some name' ) ) so that the ExpVal will have value of the function ie inserted row look like ID Name ExpVal1 some name S500 <--- Result of SOUNDEX ( 'some name' ) I'm using sqldatadapter to insert these values to the database string sql = "INSERT INTO TAB1 (ID, Name, ExpVal)VALUES (@ID, @Name, @ExpVal) ";SqlDataAdapter sqlAdptr = new SqlDataAdapter();SqlCommand sqlCmd = new SqlCommand(sql, con);sqlCmd.parameters.Add("@ID", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "ID");sqlCmd.parameters.Add("@Name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 200, "Name");sqlCmd.parameters.Add("@ExpVal", SqlDbType.VarChar, 100, "ExpVal");sqlAdptr.InsertCommand = sqlCmd;sqlAdptr.Update(dataTable); This works fine, but the problem is, now the TAB1 contains ID Name ExpVal1 some name 'SOUNDEX ( 'some name' )' instead of S500 Thatis the sql funtion is passed by SqlDataAdapter to database as a string and it is not executing while row is inserted to the table.Please provide what changes i have to make if i want SOUNDEX ( 'some name' ) to executed while data insertion take place Thanks in advance
I'm getting a strange error with my dataadapter. Here's my code: using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection( ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString)) { SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("sprocCUSTOM", conn); da.SelectCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eventID", EventID);
conn.Open(); //open connection DataSet ds = new DataSet(); da.Fill(ds); gvAttendees.DataSource = ds; gvAttendees.DataBind(); }This is the error I'm getting: Incorrect syntax near 'sprocCUSTOM'.But the error is highlighted at the line that reads "da.Fill(ds);"There's nothing wrong with the stored procedure either. It exists and works fine.
I am using SqlDataAdapter.Update(DataSet) to insert records into multiple tables in one call, but for some reason only first table was inserted.
Dim _cnn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString")) Dim _sql As String = "Select a,b FROM Table1;Select d, c From Table2;" Dim _da As New SqlDataAdapter(_sql, _cnn) Dim _sqlCmdBdr As New SqlCommandBuilder(_da) Dim _ds As New DataSet _da.Fill(_ds) Dim _newrow1 As DataRow = _ds.Tables(0).NewRow _newrow1("a") = "NewA" _newrow1("b") = "NewB" _ds.Tables(0).Rows.Add(_newrow1)
Dim _newrow2 As DataRow = _ds.Tables(1).NewRow _newrow2("d") = "NewD" _newrow2("c") = "NewC" _ds.Tables(1).Rows.Add(_newrow2)
_da.Update(_ds)
new record inserted only into Table1, no new rows in Table2
I am porting an ASP.NET/C# application from Microsoft Access to SQL Server 2005. In my code I have a method that uses the DataAdapter class to open a table, read some values out of it which are stored, open a second table, read some additional data from it storing the data in the same structure as used before, then updating the first table with the combined data.
When I execute the dataAdapter.Update() method I get the following error:
"Dynamic SQL generation for the Update Command is not supported against a Select Command that does not return any key column information."
I am uncertain what this error is about. This code worked fine against Microsoft Access so it must be something different in how SQL Server works.
Can anyone tell me what this error is complaining about?
I am using three tables in this query, one is events_detail, one is events_summary, the third if gifts. The original select statement counted the number of ids (event_details.id_number) that appear per event_name (event_summary.event_name).
Now, I would like to add in another column that counts the number of IDs that gave a gift who attended an event that were also listed in the event_ details table. So far I have come up with the following. My main issue is linking the subquery properly back to the main query. how to count in the sub-query and have the result placed within the groups results in the main query.
SELECT es.event_name, es.event_id, COUNT(ed.id_number) Number_Attendees, ( SELECT COUNT(gifts.donor_id) AS Count2 FROM gifts WHERE gifts.donor_id = ed.id_number ) subquery2
With MUCH help from this site and its users, I now know how to link a SqlCommand to a stored procedure: What I don't know how to do, if it is possible, is to use a stored procedure with a SQLDataAdapter... Here is the code as I am using, anyone have an idea on how to do this the right way? ' Define data objects Dim conn As SqlConnection Dim dataSet As New DataSet Dim adapter As SqlDataAdapter If ViewState("FooterDataSet") Is Nothing Then
' Read the connection string from Web.config Dim connectionString As String = _ ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings( _ "Greensheet").ConnectionString ' Initialize connection conn = New SqlConnection(connectionString) ' Create adapter adapter = New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * " & _
"FROM Table " & _
"WHERE (ID= " & intID & ")", conn) ' Fill the DataSet adapter.Fill(dataSet, "Footer") ' Store the DataSet in view state ViewState("FooterDataSet") = dataSet Else
dataSet = ViewState("FooterDataSet") End If ' Prepare the sort expression using the gridSortDirection and ' gridSortExpression properties Dim sortExpression As String If gridSortDirection = SortDirection.Ascending Then
sortExpression = gridSortExpression & " ASC" Else
sortExpression = gridSortExpression & " DESC" End If ' Sort the data dataSet.Tables("Footer").DefaultView.Sort = sortExpression ' Bind the grid to the DataSet footerGrid.DataSource = _ dataSet.Tables("Footer").DefaultView footerGrid.DataBind()
Since my select command involves multiple tables, I manually write the insert command, proplating the SqlParameters as follows: string insCmdText = "INSERT INTO itcac_alan.COURSE " + " ([COURSE_ID], [COURSE_NAME], [COURSE_NO], [BEGIN_DATE], [END_DATE], [CREATER]) " + " VALUES(@COURSE_ID, @COURSE_NAME, @COURSE_NO, @BEGIN_DATE, @END_DATE, @CREATER)"; SqlCommand insCmd = new SqlCommand(insCmdText, conn); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@COURSE_ID", SqlDbType.VarChar); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@COURSE_NAME", SqlDbType.VarChar); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@COURSE_NO", SqlDbType.VarChar); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@BEGIN_DATE", SqlDbType.DateTime); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@END_DATE", SqlDbType.DateTime); insCmd.Parameters.Add("@CREATER", SqlDbType.VarChar); da.InsertCommand = insCmd; // da is a data adapter
However, as I use the preceding adapter to update the underlying database which in fact is based on a disconnected DataRow, an exception is thrown: The parameterized query '(@COURSE_ID varchar(8000),@COURSE_NAME varchar(8000),@COURSE_NO ' expects the parameter '@COURSE_ID', which was not supplied. The code I update the database is as follows: DataRow newRow = sourceTable.NewRow(); //sourceTable is a DataTable whose data rows are populated with da (SqlDataAdpater) in the preceding code // Populating the newRow Hashtable newValues = new Hashtable(); ..................... foreach (DictionaryEntry entry in newValues) { // entry.Key is identical to a column name in the newRow newRow[(string)entry.Key] = (entry.Value == null ? DBNull.Value : entry.Value); } sourceTable.Rows.Add(newRow); adapter.SelectCommand.Connection.Open(); adapter.Update(sourceTable); // Exception is thrown here adapter.SelectCommand.Connection.Close();
Please give me some directions to debug. It seems that the values of Columns withn DataRow cannot be fetched into the corresponding adapter.InsertCommand.Parameters by the adpater. (As I use SqlCommandBuilder to automatically generate insert command, the code above wroks rightly.) Thanks a million. Ricky.

Hi, I was looking at how to update a database using SqlDataAdapter and I stumbled upon this code snippet from (http://www.java2s.com/Code/CSharp/Database-ADO.net/UpdatedatabaseusingtheSqlDataAdapter.htm):using System; using System.Data; using System.Data.SqlClient;
class Class1{ static void Main(string[] args){ SqlConnection thisConnection = new SqlConnection("server=(local)\SQLEXPRESS;database=MyDatabase;Integrated Security=SSPI"); SqlDataAdapter thisAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT ID, FirstName FROM Employee", thisConnection);
SqlCommandBuilder thisBuilder = new SqlCommandBuilder(thisAdapter);
DataSet thisDataSet = new DataSet();
thisAdapter.Fill(thisDataSet, "Employee");
Console.WriteLine("name before change: {0}", thisDataSet.Tables["Employee"].Rows[9]["FirstName"]);
Console.WriteLine("name after change: {0}", thisDataSet.Tables["Employee"].Rows[9]["FirstName"]);
} }I was just wondering, without iteration, how did the line "thisDataSet.Tables["Employee"].Rows[1]["FirstName"] = "Inc";" managed to know which row it is to update? I tried it on my own application and it worked fine.Any help to assist me in understanding this would be appreciated. Thanks
