I am having a hard time attempting to update a single field without having to retrieve the whole record prior to saving.
For example, in my web application I have an in place editor for the Name and Description fields of an object. Once you edit either field, it sends the new field (with the object's ID value) to the web server. What I want is the webserver to take that value and ID and only update the one field. There are only two ways google tells me to do this:
1) When I get the value I want to change, the value and the ID, retrieve the record from the database, update the field in the c# object, and then send it back to the server. I don't like this method because not only does it include a completely unnecessary database read call (which includes two tables due to the way my schema is).
2) Set UpdateCheck for all the fields (but the primary keys) to UpdateCheck.Never. This doesn't work for me (I think) due to my mapping layer between the Linq to Sql and my Entity/ViewModel layer. When I convert my entity into the linq to sql db object it seems to be updating those fields regardless of the UpdateCheck setting. This might be just because of integers, since not setting an int means it is a zero (and no, I can't use int? instead).
I am trying to update my table ARTICLES and it has a field COUNTER, Everytime a user enter this ARTICLES, the page_load event runs a LINQ to SQL query taking the QueryString as parameter, increasing the COUNTER field in 1.
For context: First of all, I am new to LINQ, as I have been using SubSonic for quite some time now.
I have two tables, Users, and Affiliates. They both have a very typical schema. The FK that joins them is the UserId field, which is in the Affiliates table. I want to create a LINQ query that pulls the Username from the Users table using the AffiliateId value. The AffiliateId is a primary key of the Affiliates table.
I have tried to accomplish this using many variations of the following code:
[Code]....
In the above query, I expect to get a single row result set. However, I instead receive the entire table of results.
How can I make this work? I have yet to see an example or article out there to do what I am trying to do.
I've got a single table, with project information and schedule information. To make the data easier to present, I created a tab control with two panels (a detailsview in each). The first tab is for project info, the second tab is for schedule info (again, all fields in the same table). The problem is, if i change info in both tabs, and then hit the update button, only the data from one tab is added to the table. I think this problem is simple to fix, and boils down to the way I have the page organized, but I can't quite figure it out.
I've boiled my code down to the following conceptualized structure:
[code]....
When you click the update button, you return to the listview, but with only the information from your current tab saved. How can I get it to update from both detailsviews?
i got a problem to update my database which i bounded to datagrid. The problem is, i want to update my database only by clicking one update button at the bottom.. when the user click it, all the fields will be updated to database.
i have a field DOB, i want to validate only this field when i give causes validation True for this field, What happens is it validates all the fields in the page are validate. Can we assign validation for particular fields.
I have a column in a table that contains a message and I want this message to be displayed in a label. Here is my code which currently doesn't populate the label.
Protected conString As String = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("sqldirectory") Dim cnn As New SqlConnection(conString) Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("select message from [database].[dbo].[table]") Dim dr As SqlDataReader Try cnn.Open() dr = cmd.ExecuteReader() lblMsg.Text = dr(0).ToString Catch ex As Exception dr = Nothing Finally cnn.Close() End Try
I've got an ASP.NET 4 site on which I want to allow people to put '<' in their password. However, .NET gets in the way by blocking (what it sees as) an attempt to put HTML in a form field. I know I can turn off input validation entirely, but I only want to turn it off for this one field. Does anyone know an easy way to do that?
I am developing asp.net mobile application. I am using XML as a database. I am querying on the XML to access the required elements & attributes by using LINQ to XML in .net. I have the follwing part in my XML file.
[code]....
The similar logic I need for the above defined XML part. In the above XML I want to write the LINQ to XML query which can access the NAME attribute of the 'VALVE' node (<VALVE NAME="PWV">), then it should access the text between 'DISPLAY-NODE' (<DISPLAY-NAME> Production Master Valve </DISPLAY-NAME>), & then it should access the all the attributes of the 'COMMAND' node dynamically ( <COMMANDS USE-TEMPLATE="TRUE" TEAMPLATE-NAME="ValveCommands.xml"></COMMANDS>). All these I want dynamically without explicitly specifying the name of the child node as well as name of their attributes ( similar to the way I written the above query ) Can we write such a code by using LINQ to XML ? It will be better if we can write code for above issue in a single logic ( similar to the way I written the above query ).
i have one hidden field and i want to bind it with two values of my data base separated by an coma. some thing like ->asp:HiddenField ID="hfRstidDate" runat="server" Value=<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "tsk_ID"),DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Date_Worked").ToString())%>
My problem i am facing is that i do not know if it's possible to access a single field in my case sold from the following code.
[Code]....
What i want to do is have the checkbox true if the value of sold = yes and false if the value = no I have the checkbox ready on the asp.net side but just need for the checkbox to recognise the datafield, sold, and do and if check statement, is this possible if not i will work around it.
I am trying to bind two values "start_time" and "end_time" to a text property of a label that is inside of a gridview template field. Below is the html. I must keep the values separate so that I can pass them into a function in code beheid in order to calulate the time difference. When I bind the code below I get "The server tag is not well formed." Time is in format HH:MM AM or PM
I created a gridview that is bound with an SQL datasource - I added a gridview button column. I need to update/insert 'Y' on a specific cell in the row when I press the button
This is my gridview code
[code]....
The button column I have says delete on it but it shouldn't really delete it - Once I press the button it puts a 'Y' on a column that is filtered out by my sql statement in the sql datasource
