I have a table with several columns i created,
How can i add a new column and specify its data type now? i using sql server and Gridview.
I tried to add one using GridView but it shows me columns called edit delete something is not like my bound fields i created early.
I'm currectly tryin to access a specific value in my database in a specific column. I'm tryin to use the primary key of the table to access the actual value in the row of that ID.
The current code:
[Code]....
Just iterates through the table and looking for any row with the boolean 'checkin' value is True, then it takes the 'id' value of that row and stores it into an array. Is there a way that I can access a another entry, and only that entry, in the table with the 'id' stored in the array?
Like if my data base contained and int, primarykey, `id` value, a boolean, `checkedin` value, and a `time` value, is there a way to access, lets say, the row with `id` equalling 3 and and the checkIn value from that row?

Creating a system with web front end and SQL backend (microsoft obviously). I have tried using the asp.netsqlprovider but i can;t as i am only allowed one database on the server, so i then tried to update my current database with the triggers to input the schema into the already existing database.Next step i create my own table with two simple fields of username and password and try and authenticate that way, i can't get that to work either.
I ahve limited permissions on the network as i am a University Student. I really don't know what to do. Never had to create a log on system before and i thought it would be far simpler than this. I ahve used Microsoft's sqlprovider schema before and it worked fine. I have also authenticated via IIS and AD too before. I can't do any of those two in this instance it seems.I need an alternative for logging in users, if needs be in can be crude. I also still need to have some kind of two different views too for logged in users and not logged in users, but that can change if needs must.Don't let me down people, haha. Think this posts in the correct place, i could not find another one i thought could be more relevant.
I have a development database and one in production. There are two different sets of data in each database. On my dev system, I have mostly dummy data that I test with and in production is the real data for my web application. I recently added a new feature to the app that required a new table, and a new field for a foreign key in an existing table. I now need to upload that new structure to the production database without overwriting the live data with my test data.
If I run the Database Publishing Wizard, and choose "Schema Only" will it import the new structure and leave the existing data alone, or will it drop the records in my production database tables?
Basically what i have is a button and i want this button to add value in database, i mean if the value in the database is 1 it adds 1 to it, so that the value becomes 2.
View 3 RepliesI am attempting to write my very first ASP.NET application, it will simply display the contents of an SQL server database table in a Gridview. This is just a first step, my eventual intention is rewrite a set of VB6 applications I wrote some years ago. But I need to walk before I can run.
I have already created an SQL Server database containing all the tables used by the VB6 applications.
How do I link this database to my ASP.NET application. Previously (on another computer) I have simply opened "My Computer" and then navigated to the .mdf file (e.g. northwnd.mdf) and then dragged and dropped it into App_Data in Visual Studio. However when I try that on my own machine, with my own data, I get an "Access Denied" message.
How can I not have access to my own data on my own computer? What am doing wrong?
I am running Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows 7 Ultimate machine, with SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition (or which ever one installs with VS 2008).
I have tables:
MAILBOX
MailboxId int PK
MailboxTypeId int FK
MAILBOXTYPES
MailboxTypeId int PK
I can't make relationship between MailboxTypeId in table MAILBOXTYPES and MailboxTypeId in table MAILBOX why ?
tbl_table1
ID primarykey (autoinc)
UserId uniqueidentifier
IdNumber primarykey int
I'd like to have a relationship between two tables.
when I make restore to backup database display this error :
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'elib' database. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
how I can solve this error ?
I know there is a way to get all the column name from a table, but that is not what I want
I want to get only a few column name from the table, is there a way to do this?
Let say, table A has three columns that is A1, A2 and A3, I only want A1 and A2 column names, again, can this be done?
BY the way, I am using SQL Server 2005 with asp.net application.
I have not found information how to do the following:
how to add a new table using EFCodeFirst to the existing database aspnetdb.mdf?
However has anyone ever seen a situation where, when you try to access the value of a column in a DataRow, you get the error "Column... does not belong to table.." when, in fact, it does?
The column name in question is called "ByWeight". I am wondering if either that, or maybe one of my other column names, is a reserved keyword and that's causing/masking this error.
If I look in the locals window and expand the DataRow, one of my columns is DBNull - by that I don't mean that the column value is DBNull, I mean the actual column itself is DBNull so it doesn't expand. I think there's a clue there.
I'm having trouble connecting to my model to my existing database using Entity Framework . Here is the code I'm working with:

I am able to store the current time of day in a column defined as time with the C# code as:notestable.NoteTime = DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay;The hour, minutes, seconds, and even millionth of a second is stored. But now, I need to retrieve the time and convert it into a string. I tried to use DateTime statements to accomplish this as with:
DateTime nt = notestable.NoteTime;
String FirstT = nt.Hour.ToString() + ":" + nt.Minute.ToString().PadLeft(2, '0');
Regarding the 'nt' variable, I got an error message that said: Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.TimeSpan?' to 'System.DateTime'.Regarding the 'Hour' designation, I changed the definition of 'nt' to 'var' and got an error message that said: System.Nullible<System.TimeSpan>' does not contain a definition for 'Hour' and no extension method could be found.So, how do I access the time from a table and convert it into a string for display in a TextBox?
I have a table in my aspnet database. I added a bottom row "Not Selected", if the user doesn't select from a databound drop down list. This row is at the bottom, because I just added it to the table data. Is there any way to move this one row to the top of the table manually? There is not "cut" and "paste" when I select the whole row.

I have defined some binary bit columns in an SQL database table to indicate yes/no conditions, but I don't know how to set or reset them. I tried to use "profile.Volunteer = 0;" C# code in an event handler to reset a voluntary state for the Profile table of members, but what I got back was an error message that said, "Constant value '0' cannot be converted to a bool'. So, if a '0' cannot be used to reset a boolean value, what can be used?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to do a lookup in a table with a value stored in an xml column.
I tried this several ways but I can't get it to work.
Here is some code:
[Code]....
I attempted to change a table columns data type and in the process caused a lot of issues. I had a date column in one of my tables and stupidly changed it from varchar to date. When I tried to run queries on it I keep getting the 'cant find column 3 error'. Now that tables structure is :
[Code]...
So column 4 is actually the date column. All other queries work for this table. I then tried to change it back and then copied all data to a new table and now I am using the new table and converting the dates as needed but I am still getting the error.
SELECT * FROM postlinks WHERE postlinks.date >= CONVERT(datetime,CONVERT(varchar(10),GetDate(),112))
I want to Update Column of a Table where ColumnName will be DropDown.SelectedValue. Example: A set of RECORDS will be displayed from a Customer Table where CUstNo ='1234' and City= 'Chicago' and Grade ='B' Once displayed I want to Update the grade to 'A' of all those customers from the above criteria. In My case I have like 100 Columns, so in where Clause Column Names will be selected from a DropDown. In My Query, Update Customer SET ColumnName= 'some value' where ColumnName ='ActualValue' So how can I pass the ColumnName which is Dropdown Selected Value. I believe I can't give as Update Customer SET DropDown.SelectedValue = 'some value' where DropDown.SelectedValue ='ActualValue' how can I resolve this ?...
