DataSource Controls :: How To Use A Data Table As A SQLDataSource Control Source
Aug 4, 2010
I know this sounds odd. I have a SQL DB that I am pulling data from. I have to some math functions to get a percentage. So I am pulling all the data in my code and building a data table with the results. I am then trying to pass this into a chart control that I have, but it fails because the data source is not correct for the chart control. I know that the chart control will accept a SQLDataSource control as a data source because a built a example with it before using it in my project.So my question is how can I use the Data Table as a data source for a SQLDataSource Control? Or is there a way I can pull the data from my DB andapply the math needed in a stored procedure or something similar that I could create the procedure on my SQL server then add a SQLDataSource control to my page and use the stored procedure as the source for the SQLDataSource Control.
I have one SqlDataSource control as DataSet with enable caching in one page aspx. Filtering is applied to this SqlDataSource control, so that the page always returns one record data.
My question: How to get the record data value from SqlDataSource control (one record data value) and store it as String variable?
<asp:sqldatasource id="SqlDataSourceX" runat="server" connectionstring="<%$ ConnectionStrings:MyConn%>" providername="System.Data.SqlClient" selectcommand="SELECT ItemNum, MIN(DateAdded) as [DateAdded] FROM Items WITH (NOLOCK) WHERE [DateAdded] between @DateFrom AND @DateTo

When I call select in codebehind, after 30sec it throws timeout expired SqlException:
[Code]....
again , this select took up to 3 sec to be executed. In application I tried to use SqlConnection and SqlTableAdapter instead of SqlDataSource, with the same query, and again it took up to 3 sec.
If I choose tighter interval (e.g '2011-01-20 00:00:00' - '2011-01-21 00:00:00') , there is no timeout exception, so I know that sqldatasource select is executed correctly. So the conclusion is that sql server is not using index while executing query sent from sqldatasource, but is using index whenever else. I have also checked the index statistics on sql server and it is like that. In profiler i can see slight difference between this two cases. As for SqlDataSource, in events table, in first column "EventClass" after 30 sec, there is this: "RPC:Completed" and application throws timeout. If i use SqlConnection and SqlTableAdapter then at the same place there is this: "SQL:BatchStarting" and "SQL:BatchCompleted" and application does not throws timeout(the index has been used).
what is so special on SqlDataSource connection, that Sql Server performs differently compared to other types of connections?
I am going to use DetailsView control for the first time and before using it I thought I would like ask this question. Instead of using the SqlDataSource Object/Class Can i have my class to most of the functionality?In short I donot want to use the in build Sql Data Source control rather would prefer to write my own. Is it possible (I know it must be!) to write the custom SqlDataSource class.
what is the disadvantages of using SqlDataSource Control? apart from flexibility and more control on the retrieved data ;why most of the web developer prefer using code behind (db connection) instead of SqlDataSource Control?
i have a website with a gridview, i bind the SqlDataSource Control that i use for my Gridview with a StroredProc. but the storedproc has to get a value which is from a textbox so that the gridview can display a record.
after I pass querystring parameter to page,page works as expected,but after that when I change my control parameter(dropdownlist selected value how can I set querystring to null or empty...
i have two sqldatasource controls. one i use to display data in textbox's ,filter'd by a select parameter in page behind code. Once checked, i want to copy this data to the other datasource ,by selecting checkbox.Then display this data in detailsview control.
At present the two datasource controls declared , render data to the page simultaneously during pageload. I want to first check data in textbox's from first source, before second datasource is rendered to screen. note, both are filtered by a page variable. i wish to leave the textbox datasource control in situ, as other controls and code depend on it.The other detailsview datasource is my problem?
For some reason the select parameter pAddId is getting set to null and get the following error when the content page is loaded If I hard code the value it works RA-01036: illegal variable name/number Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-01036: illegal variable name/number
I'm trying to link 2 objectdatasource together using the Control Parameter Source.However, I'm stuck at the screenshot below. The Next button is disabled.
Am trying to use sqldatasource to insert into a table and it comes up with the error message" Could not find control 'txtLast' in ControlParameter 'LastName'.
I want to retreive some data from an SqlDataSource using it's Selected event I've tried
DataView dv = (DataView)SqlDataSource1.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty)
but here it's going into in infinite loop and then it gives me an StackOverflowException error in ASP.Net Development Server (my dev machine) and if I publish to IIS it requires me an user name and password to connect to server and gives an InternetExplorer error "Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException. An unknown error ... status code returned was 400. The SqlDataSource is in an UpdatePanel. Maybe this is why I get this.
In my scenerio, i've a dropdownlistbox by which i want to filter, a textbox for the text to filter and two textbox for specifying from and to date.
A gridview control for displaying the filtered data and a sqldatasource control and a commandbutton called search.
The following code is used to filter the data in database and it works properly. But when i click on edit in gridview, the gridview displays no records and again when i click on search button the data is displayed on the gridview displayed with the selected row in editmode.
i have built an inserting interface in a GridView's Footer Template. Added Button for insert , auto generated the insertCommand in SqlDataSource.

(all that i did , i took help from this web site's tutorial)
I have a Reportviewer with Objectdatasource as default datasource.
However I want the report to have a datasource with parameter depending on the label.text value so sqldatasource is ideal for this. However I dunno how to set the reportviewer datasource as sqldatasource control.
I have a page in my website where there is very little code-behind. I only have two lines of code in Page_Load() and the rest of the code is declarative ASP.NET code. I have a FormView control which uses a SqlDataSource to get some order information. The SqlDataSource calls a stored procedure called usp_GetOrderDetails, here's the code for the SqlDataSource:
[Code]....
<truncated>
What I want is to grab the screenshotId from the SqlDataSource when the usp_GetOrderDetails stored proc gets called and populate it into a field on the page called screenshotId. I then want to use this screenshotId to get an image from the database based on Id. populating the screenshotId field. How do I do this - do I need to have something like OnDataBound or something like that?
i have a grid bound to sqldatasource control which gets its data from stored procedure. in page load event i code a dropdownlist where i take the selectedvalue parameter for the parameter query. only when a second dependant dropdownlist is selected (coded in dropdownlist1 selected event)is data returned ?
I have a SqlDataSource connected to database and use a parametrized query to fetch out data.Query has got a very large varchar field on which i have to perform a search.To make search, i have 2 combobox and a textbox organized in this way
MAIN CATEGORY (combobox)-> CATEGORY TYPE(combobox) -> MODEL(textbox).
Based on main category choose, category type is filled from database. At last, it's added a "nothing" combobox item.Now i should search into big varchar field adding category type condition but, if nothing is specified, i should make identical search like all combobox value are selected. How should i, in your opinion, make this using SqlDataSource?
I have a dropdownlist that pulls from a datasource. When a name is selected all information drops down to a formview. Once there 3 fields get populated from the dropdownlist and then there is 2 other fields that need user input. Once they hit submit, it should write to a different table in the same DB. I cannot get the fields to populate and write to the DB. Here is my code:
