Concatenating Results From SQL Query And NULL Columns?

May 11, 2010

I need to concatenate several columns of a table into a single value, then show that value in an asp dropdownlist. The SQL code I'm issuing is as follows:

SELECT UserID, CustomerNum, UserName + ' - ' + UserAddress + ',' + UserCity + ' ' + UserState AS UserInfo
FROM Users
WHERE (CustomerNum = @CustomerNum)
ORDER BY UserName

I then set 'UserInfo' as the text field in the dropdownlist.This generally works, except occasionally one of the columns in the database is null (for example, UserState). When that happens, the entire concatenation is null, and I get an empty entry in the dropdownlist.

Is there something in SQLServer that will allow me to ignore those NULL results, or will I have to code something up in the DataBind event?

IEnumerable Not Null But Calling Count() Results In Exception?

Jun 2, 2010

I have code that's working beautifully on my development machine,but when deployed to the server is throwing null reference exception.So,I can't step through the code,but I've pinned down the culprit.But now I am puzzled.Here's the code.The question is below.

Dim certs = From p In persons _
Select New Certificate( _
p.Value, _
New CertificateData.Seminar(thisEvent.Seminar.Name, _

[code]...

In the code above persons is a dictionary of custom class,and certs is of IEnumerable type.Now here's the quandary.The first line that sets the label returns False,so certs is not null.But the second line throws an null reference exception.

Active Directory/LDAP :: LDAP Query To Check If An User Is In A Group Or Not. Creation Of A Portal | Query = Null

Jul 7, 2010

I'm working on a portal, and I need to check users conection on the ldap.

And if users are members of a special group then it works.

I've exactly used this link to make it works : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff649227.aspx (almost work)

My point is : my ldap path seems good, no error anymore, when I log with my username and password.But when I querry it, it returns null, but I'm sure my user is in the group :

// Bind to the native AdsObject to force authentication. Object obj = entry.NativeObject; DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher(entry); search.Filter = "(SAMAccountName=" + username + ")"; search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn"); SearchResult result = search.FindOne(); if(null == result) { return false; }

I'm a normal user, i test with my account. I'm a member of the group that I'm looking for.

C# - Why Is SQL Query Returning Duplicate Results

Dec 1, 2010

The SQL is below - each result is coming up 3 times rather than just once.

SELECT Consignments.LegacyID, TripDate, CollectionName, DeliveryName, Pallets, Weight, BaseRate, Consignments.FuelSurcharge, AdditionalCharges, BaseRate * Quantity AS 'InvoiceValue', Consignments.Customer, InvoiceNumber,
CASE
WHEN child.LegacyID = Consignments.Customer THEN child.LegacyID
WHEN parent.LegacyID = Consignments.Customer THEN parent.LegacyID
ELSE this.LegacyID
END AS 'InvoiceAcc'
FROM SageAccount this
LEFT JOIN SageAccount parent on parent.LegacyID = this.InvoiceAccount
LEFT JOIN SageAccount child on this.LegacyID = child.InvoiceAccount
JOIN Consignments on (Consignments.Customer = this.LegacyID AND this.Customer = 'True')
OR (Consignments.Customer = parent.LegacyID AND parent.Customer = 'True')
OR (Consignments.Customer = child.LegacyID AND child.Customer = 'True')
WHERE (this.LegacyID = @Customer) AND (TripDate BETWEEN @fromdate AND @todate) AND (InvoiceNumber IS NOT NULL)

The SQL was given to me for another similar query, but this time I have modified it to try to use it for the query I'm doing now, so I'm assuming that I'm doing something stupid.

LINQ-to-SQL Query Returning No Results?

Mar 5, 2011

I have a query using LINQ-to-SQL. It queries an underlying database table Rooms. It uses Where conditions to narrow down the results, namely:

Gender.
Current Occupancy < Max Occupancy
Available Flag is Checked

I know this should return results but it keeps returning an empty set. Any ideas? Code is below

Dim selectedHalls = (From sh In dbHalls.Rooms _
Where sh.gender = Session("gender").ToString _
Where sh.max_occupancy > sh.current_occupancy _
Where sh.is_available = 1 _
Select sh.building_name).Distinct()

UPDATE: I've verified that the issue is with the statement where sh.is_available = 1, which doesn't make sense since this is a bit field.

Access :: Using Results From A Sql Query In A Variable?

Oct 2, 2010

I've managed to use my MS Access database with repeaters and gridviews in my website. Basically, printing the result of a query directly to the website seems easy enough using something like this :

[Code]....

After quite a bit of googling this seems to be a common way to do this. My question then seems kinda silly.

I want to use some of the data from the query in for example a variable without sending the data to a repeater or gridview and so on. Say I just want the username and a password from a database and want to store the username in one variable and the password in another for further use in the code. What do I do?

ADO.NET :: How To Alphabetise The Results From A Linq To Sql Query

Jan 26, 2011

I can't seem to change the order of the results coming back from a linq to sql query, I want just to return the distinct values from the field x.manufacturer in alphabetical order, this is what I have and it isn't working:

public IQueryable<string> Dropone()
{
return (from x in CAT.CatalogueDatas
where x.Parent == null
orderby x.Manufacturer
select x.Manufacturer).Distinct();
}

Currently I get the distinct values in non-alphabetical order, in fact I'm not sure what order they're coming out in, don't think it's the order in which they appear though.

C# - Get Updated Query Results On Page?

Aug 2, 2010

I have an asp.net intranet site hosted on IIS on my computer.

On one page you can enter two user id's and get a side by side comparison of their roles in our (custom app) system.

I often use it to add roles when I'm setting up new users. After running the query, if i change a role and run the query again it will not show updated results. It's being cached somehow. I have to go to another page and come back and them run the query to get updated results.

How can avoid having to navigate away to get the updated query results displayed.n

ADO.NET :: How To Get Results Of Query (single Value) Into A Variable

Jan 16, 2011

I have a Query which I run as an SQL. This is my SQL:

"SELECT COUNT(*) As NoDup FROM [XXX Dir] WHERE (FileName Like 'XXX_YYY_20100916.txt')"

The "XXX Dir" is a table and "FileName" is a text field within that table.

When I execute the SQL in the Query development windows, it returns a single value like 2.

I would like to assign that value to a variable so I can use it in my VB code.

Avoid Error When No Results From Entity Query

Mar 14, 2011

I have a simple Entity query:

[code]....

I then check whether one of the result values is more recent than six months ago using an if..then like so:

If rhcexists.First.SignatureDate > Date.Today.AddMonths(-6) Then
End If

However, if there are no results returned this will return an error. Is there a way for me to tell it to act as if the date is older than six months if there is no value at all? e.g., could I in pseudo do something like:

If Exists(rhcexists.First.SignatureDate, Date.Today.AddMonths(-8)) > Date.Today.AddMonths(-6) Then
End If

C# - Use XMLHttpRequest To Execute A SQL Query And Return The Results?

Feb 9, 2011

I'm building a web app for my company that will run a query every few seconds against SQL Server, and the data that it returns is which database is restoring and how much % complete it is. I have the query already set up and it works fine.

What I want to do is on my Web Form, have a "div" element that will contain the % complete of a database restore, and have it update every few seconds using the JavaScript timer object:

setInterval(function, interval)

I figure I would need to use XMLHttpRequest to send the request to the web server which will run the SQL query. Am I on the right track? How would I even start to do this?

My SQL query is below:

Use master
Select der.session_id, der.command, der.status, der.percent_complete, *
From sys.dm_exec_requests as der
Where percent_complete > 0
