View 1 RepliesI have a Customer Table that has many fields - two of which are FirstName and LastName.
I have a TyapedDataSet that is is linked to the CustomerTable
I have BusinessLogic layer that looks at the Typed DataSet
On my page I have an objectdatasource back to the BusinessLogicLayer and a dropdownlist
Currently, the dropdownlist displays the LastName and has a value set to CustomerID.
I want the display to be LastName+', '+FirstName instead of LastName
My question is where do I create the field called FullName - Do I open the MS SQL table and add a field called FullName -- but I think if I do this then when I add data I have to duplicate FirstName and LastName info. Do I add a field (column) to the dataset?

I have a dropdown list in a gridview field. The DataValueField for the ddl is an 8 digit item code. The text to display through will be quite longer, 40-60 characters because it will combine the item code and item name into a single string. I don't want the dropdownlist field to be that wide though, only what is displayed when the ddl is selected.In Access you can set the width property of the list to display wider than the field itself. Is there that capability in ASP.NET and if so where do I find it?

I have a gridview with 3 nested dropdownlists in one cell on edit like this:To get the exact fields when the user clicks on edit I used the following code(yes it's messy)
[Code]....
The BLLOnderhoud is a class and the getReserveInfo is used to get the Model - Brand(merk) Information.Since the dropdownlists are nested in the gridview I can't call them directly and they can't call any of my functions.And this is the problem, when I change the dropdownfield Model the Auto field wich is the last dropdown(in the picture is a typo) should be binded like in the following code:
[Code]....
But the dropdownlist onDataBound event can't call any of my functions that are in my class.So my question is how can the onDataBound event of the second dropbox trigger a function? The only thing that the function has to do is to bind the 3rd dropdownlist
Using dropdown in gridview and bind the values in dropdown then based on dropdown display the value in another column.
View 1 RepliesI have a DetailsView on the page and I have made one of the fields a TemplateField. In the EditItemTemplate and InsertItemTemplate I have a DropdownList that is databound to a table in my Sql Server database. I wanted to add an initial value to the DropdownList
namely "- select -" .
I set the AppendDataBoundItems property to true and added the initial value as a ListItem.Markup of the DropdownList
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList_HP" runat="server"
AppendDataBoundItems="True" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource_HP" [code]...
This works fine for new input. The problem is however that the database already has records that were entered through a Windows Application and many of these records has a null value in this field and exceptions are thrown when I tried to open these records
and the system tried to set the SelectedValue of the DropdownList.After some more searching I found this help
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366709.aspx
So I changed the ListItem in the DropDownList markup to the following:
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList_RefHospDV4" runat="server"
AppendDataBoundItems="True" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource_RefHosp" [code]...
This now solved the problem of opening a record where the value is null in the database, BUT now the RequiredFieldValidator is not validating anymore to make sure that a databound item is selected for this field and not the initial value "- select -". So basically now it is not checking anymore to see if valid input has been entered for the DropDownList and it accepts "- select -" thus it acts as if the field is not a required field anymore.
In short what is required is that I want to make sure that the user enters a valid selection in the DropDownList, but it must also cater for old records that do not have this field entered yet so that those old records can be opened in the DetailsView .Opening Old records (with null in that field):When these old records are opened in the DetailsView the DropDownlist should show "- select -" when the value in the database is null.
Saving records (old or new records):When saving the record in Insert mode or Update mode the RequiredFieldValidator should show that a valid input is not selected if the DropDownList is still on "- select -".

I have a data table that has several columns, one of which is an xml field. I want to bind a column in the gridview to a single node in the xml based on an xpath. The binding only needs to be read only, it won't be used to update. How would I do that?
So, given this data:
IDField, XMLData
1, "<Person><Name>FunkyD</Name><Age>110</Age></Person>"
2, "<Person><Name>Maurice</Name><Age>16</Age></Person>"
I want bind the first column of the grid to IDField - that's easy. I also want to bind the second column of the grid to the Name node of the XMLData field. The xpath would be Person/Name.
I'd want the grid to display:-
1 FunkyD
2 Maurice
NB, the node will only appear once in the xml field of each row. I want a row on the grid for each data row. What I don't want (and all I seem to be able find examples of on google) is to bind a grid to nodes that repeat within the same xml doc.

I'm looking for the easiest way to bind data from a SqlDataSource to textboxes dropped in Visual Studio 2008.
For example, I have 4 textboxes currently that have Address, City, State, Zip. I also have a SqlDataSource on the page fetching the ID of the record and selecting those 4 fields based on ID.
How am I able to quickly bind each box to those particular fields selected? I would think this would be really straight forward - but seems it's not. Seems like the answer is funneled towards having to create a GridView or some type of control.
