I'm looping through an ArrayList and creating a column in a DataTable from each field. One of my fields is a DateTime field, and I've noticed that when I create the columns, it's being changed to a String, but I need it to still be a DateTime field for sorting. I'm trying to do this, but it's not quite working.
[Code]....
I am getting an error message:Conversion from string "mm/dd/yyyy" to type 'Integer' is not valid.
What is best way to format date filed from datatable without showing the time?
ClosingDate is smalldatetime in my SQL DB.
[Code]....
how do i insert date and time together ? what is the format for this. i tried like this but its not working.
string startDtime = TextFromDate.Text + " " + Stime;
sql_comm.Parameters.AddWithValue("@StartDate",
DateTime.Parse(startDtime));
is this the right way ? dd/mm/yyy +" "+ 00:00
or i need to make a string that contain this : dd/mm/yyy00:00
its not writing any eror it just do nothing .
I want to filter a datetime field for a date without the time...
I want all fields that contain the selected date regardless of the time.
What should I use as the filter expression?
I have trouble of saving "no time" to a datetime field in my db by using objectdatasource.I am using a formview to insert new record by an insert method in an objectdatasource.

Maybe this could be a simple questino, but for me it's difficult to do this action: I have a table in sql server 2005 with some records stored, for example 10 records. The primary key of this table, let's call it "Employee", it's a number field with an autoincrement constraint. I want to store more data into the table by using a OdbcDataTable object and OdbcDataAdapter and adding new rows to the datatable and afeter that use the "Update" method from the OdbcDataAdapter object.
The big deal is this: let's suppose that I want a add a new record to the datatable object, using any method or code sequence that you want. if I have 10 records stored on the data base table, when I retrieve this table schema by using the OdbcDataAdapter "Fill" method, I have a copy of the data base table schema in the DataTable object, right?. if I add a new row on the datatable object, it's suppose that the primary key column of that table must AUTO-INCREMENT the value of the key, I mean if the last value that I store on the table was the number 10 on the PK field, when I add a new row on the datatable object, the PK value on the datatable object must be the number 11 if the autoincrement constraint is present into the DataTable object, but in my case, it doesn't work
So, How can I define the conditions or set the c# data objects properties to wor in that way???. In this moment the PK column on the odbcDataTable doesn't auto-increment its value when I add a new row on it.
Please helpe with this.
PD: I have another question about the DataTable object, how many records can store this object?? I have some problems with this because sometimes when I use the Fill() method to get data into the DataTable or a DataSet object there's no problem if the Fill() method retrieves about 142000 records, but when I retrieve over the 145000 records, when I inspect the DataSet or DataTable object by using the debuging mode, they have null value. Any of you can tell me why this situation ocurrs??

I need to limit the length of the string that load into a DataTable that is being used to display. The data I am loading is coming from another DataTable. How do I shorten row["CG_GalleryName"] contents to 24 characters.
Convert.ToString(row["CG_GalleryName"]) -- how do I set this length to 24 characters? Using it in the below code.
if (Convert.ToInt16(row["rnum"]) == 1)
{
dr = GLinks.NewRow();
dr["rnum"] = row["rnum"];
dr["L_URL"] = row["L_URL"];
dr["CG_GalleryName"] = row["CG_GalleryName"];
dr["L_Picture"] = row["L_Picture"];
GLinks.Rows.Add(dr);
I want to read date field from Excel sheet and insert it into SQL Server2005.When I read date field it gives me a number say '40160' when the date feild is "08/01/2010"

I need to create an interface for adding users to .Net Membership DB through an existing database. My Idea is to read each row from database from existing users table in a datatable and then iterate through each row and add it to new database. I cannot directly copy the rows from existing users table because the password stored in .Net Membership provider is in ir-reversible hash code and hashing is done through encryption algorithm present in front end code. My User count is huge (in millions).So what should i use to read the records, Dataset or datatable. Also tell what is the max number of rows it can hold.

The length 16 is used because this is the length of the field according to sql (the image datafield is a pointer of size 16) I noticed .Net is actually truncating the string because of the length i'm setting. An image of size 3kb will properly upload if we set the length field to be greater than 3kb The question I have is what is the proper value (or strategy) to use in order to set for the length field so that ALL images will properly update to the database, with each using the appropriate size.
I guess i could theoretically set the length to be maxint, but this seems sloppy. Looking at sqlparameter documentation i didnt see an 'unlimited' or 'default' length i could set, which would allow each update statement called to use the appropriate size for the data length for that row.

ive a DB in access with a single table and no primary key, actually i dont need a primary key but i can consider a date field plus another to make an index. however i want to add a counter field based on every change of date field, for instance ill have many records of 20/May and all must have the same id then when the date is different, the next group of records with that new date must show 2 etc.. is it a quick way to update my database?
View 6 RepliesI have a table added to a dbml file in my website. The website is already deployed to Live server. Now I have been instructed to a add a new field to the table. The field will be defaulted as getdate().
I don't plan to modify my dbml file for this change since the filed holds a default value. Will it cause any issue(performance related or any other). I am sure that I will not have to use the newly added field in the website. I am new to LINQ.

View 1 RepliesI need to format this date time into the format Day/Month/Year on the same template field.
I am avoiding doing this under SQL server because that will mean changing my data type in my dataset to string instead of data time which i do not want.

i am using dt.select to filter rows
now i want to add those filter rows to a datatable
I wanna join all the field as a new col.
but how can i ignore the empty field because i always join the field and separate by space like the following.
select (field_1+' '+field_2+' '+field_3) as new_col from TABLEA
but if the field is empty, then there is the double space
how can i ensure all the space is one space only.
can we store datatable into hiddenfield.
