DataSource Controls :: Include An Alias In Select Query?

Jun 22, 2010

I have an application that I am developing using ASP.Net with visual basic code. I have a table called "Customers" that contains 3 fields. The name of each field is "Name", "LocationA", and "LocationB". I want to code a select query that list two columns. The first column should contain the field "Name". I want the second column to contain the value in the field "LocationB" if "LocationB" is not null, else I want the second column to contain the value in the field "LocationA".

SQL Server :: Using Alias Right In Select Statement?

Feb 24, 2011

here is a sql select statement,

Select
ColA = ID
,ColB = Name
,ColC = invtotamt + (SELECT SUM(TableA.camount) FROM TableA WHERE TableA.csucceed = 1 AND TableA.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableA.cID)
,ColD = ((SELECT SUM(TableA.camount) FROM TableA WHERE TableA.csucceed = 1 AND TableA.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableA.cID)
,ColE = (SELECT SUM(TableB.camount) FROM TableB WHERE TableB.csucceed = 1 AND TableB.cID = InventoryTotal.invID GROUP BY TableB.cID)
FROM TABLE

it look complicated, and long statement, actually it's easy, it is like: (it's a sample, not a really one)

Select
ColA = ID
,ColB = Name
,ColC = ColD + ColE
,ColD = ColE + ColC
,ColE = ColC + ColD/100
FROM TABLE

it looks much easier with ALIAS. But, it seems i cannot directly use alias in select stetement like that.
if i cannot use alise, i have to copy paste lots of same column definition. how can i use the alias in select statement?? this bothers me a lots of times!

I can get all values to appear in each table but have been unsuccessful in getting all values from both tables.

DataSource Controls :: Filtering Between 2 Values In A Query From Dropdownlist Select?

Feb 17, 2010

I have dropdownlist of dates and depending on the date that the user selects from list, I would like to filter records that fall between the startyear and finishyear columns in the datasource. (My the problem is that I do not know how to declare the Startyear and Endyear from the query in the code as they appear underlined - probably the BETWEEN syntax is wrong too).

yYear = DropDownList1.Text
Using connection As New SqlConnection("Data Source=CHRIS-PCSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TorGHL;Integrated Security=True")
Dim cmd As String
cmd = "SELECT BarDetails.*, MenuHeadingId AS Expr1 FROM BarDetails WHERE (MenuHeadingId = 2)" & "WHERE " & yYear & " BETWEEN " & "(" &
StartYear & ")" & " AND " & "(" & EndYear & ")"
connection.Open()
Dim dapubcb As New SqlDataAdapterDim sqlcomm
As
New SqlCommand(cmd, connection)
dapubcb.SelectCommand = sqlcomm
Dim dspubcb As New DataSet("BarDetails")
dapubcb.Fill(dspubcb, "BarDetails")

DataSource Controls :: Using Values Selected From A "check Box List' In A SQL Select Query?

Jul 5, 2010

I have a table called 'Customer' that contains customer information. One of the fields is named "CustomerType". Each record in the 'Customer' table will contain the value of either "C", "I", or "O".

I have a form that contains a "check box list" named "Type". There are 3 values in the "check box list". The values are "C", "I", and "O". The user can select one or more of these values. I have a button on the form named "btnRunQuery.

When the user clicks on the button "btnRunQuery" I want to exectute a query that selects the records contained in the "Customer" table where the value in the field "CustomerType" equal the values the user selected in the "check box list". Example: If the user selected "C" and "O", then I want the select query to select all records that contain either "C" or "O" in the field "CustomerType".

I assume that what I need to do is to capture the values that the user selected in the "check box list" and put them in a variable. Then I need to format the "Where" statement in the query and add a "Parameters.AddWithValue" command.

DataSource Controls :: Linq Query To Select Parent Records Which Have Related Children

Jan 19, 2010

I have a basic CMS which I'm adding to a site to display some downloads organised into groups. I have two tables, one for the groups and one for the downloads. I'm using a repeated to display the groups with another repeater inside to display the children. This works perfectly.

However some of my download groups may not have any downloads related to them and I'd like to handle this by filter the groups so that only those with a relate download record(s) are shown.

I'm trying to do this with the query which populates the top repeater based on some ideas I read but I must be going wrong with the syntax.

Here is what I'm using to try and only select downloads groups which have downloads linked to them by the download group ID.

[Code]....

Can anyone offer any thoughts on how I should construct the query to perform this?

DataSource Controls :: Implementing A BLL / Contacts Table, The Select Method Is A Sql Query Against A Sql Server 2000 Database?

Feb 17, 2010

I'm implementing a BLL layer and have a few questions. First, in my DAL, there is a contacts table, the select method is a sql query against a sql server 2000 database. The preview data returns everyting as expected. The query is

[Code]....

The BLL method is built like so

[Code]....

When using the BLL method to a gridview, the results of the subquery are not displayed. There are also other methods, each having a different where clause for ContactRole_ID and each is having the same issue of not displaying the subquery reult in the gridview. No error, but no data is displayed for the subquery either. Here is the templatefield of the gridview

[Code]....

Another item that is causing an error is in trying to update a record. Here is the DAL update method

Forms Data Controls :: Use DropDownList To Query Db To Include All Values With Exceptions

Jan 21, 2011

Trying to use a dropdownlist to query a database so that it will return all values except 1 (or more in future versions).

For example, assume you had a simple table name "MYFRIENDS" which has two fields named "GROUP" and "NAME" with the following records:

Group
Name
A
John
B
Jane
C
Tony
D
Sue

What I want to do is create a DropDownList that has only 2 list items related to the "GROUP" field. The first list item should return records from the database related to Group A only. Then, the second list item should return all other records EXCLUDING those belonging to Group A.

The drop down list should look something like this (I've put a question mark where I don't know what to do):

[Code]....

After the selection is chosen in the above drop down list, it should query the database and return the desired result. I'm using an AccessDataSource with select parameters. Here's a sample of what that looks like:

[Code]....

Things I've tried that didn't work:

I tried using "Not A" as the the 2nd list item's value. I was thinking p1 would be replaced with the value "Not A" and the query would read "WHERE GROUP LIKE Not A". But, the query syntax "Like Not" is technically wrong. I tried changing the Where Clause to "WHERE GROUP p1" and then replaced the list item's value to "LIKE A" and the second to "NOT LIKE A". Again, I was thinking p1 would be replaced to read "WHERE GROUP LIKE A" and "WHERE GROUP NOT LIKE A". I also tried changing the "SelectCommand" itself so that after the dropdownlist changed, it would first change the selectcommand first and then run the query.

Why the first 2 items didn't work became somewhat obvious to me after thinking about it for a little while. However, I would think the 3rd one would/should work... as long as you have the sequence of events correct which up to this point I haven't been able to figure out.

DataSource Controls :: EntityDataSource With Include For Related Columns

Feb 28, 2011

I have a formview with an entityDataSource. I need to include columns from related fields. I have seen many demos, with AdventureWorksDB, that imply that you can do this by using INCLUDE in the entitydatasource declaration. I have tried made many attempts and it just does not seem to work as demonstrated. I have attached the errors below and the EDS. I have also attached a JPEG of the model I am working in. Three errors demonstrating 3 different attempts to include a related table:

DataBinding: 'TmModel.tbICObjectBase' does not contain a property with the name 'Group'
the code declaration for error 1:
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Group") %>' />
DataBinding: 'TmModel.tbICObjectBase' does not contain a property with the name 'tbICTagBase'.
the code declaration for error 2:
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("tbICTagBase.Group") %>' />
DataBinding: 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityCollection`1[[TmModel.tbICTagBase, TmModel, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]]' does not contain a property with the name 'Group'.
the code declaration for error 3:
<asp:Label ID="tbICTagBasesLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("tbICTagBases.Group") %>' />
EntityDataSource
<asp:EntityDataSource ID="entDSObjectBase" runat="server" AutoGenerateWhereClause="True"
ConnectionString="name=IntouchDBContainer" Include="tbICTagBases"

DataSource Controls :: Programmatically Setting ODS Select Method And Select Parameters?

Dec 22, 2010

The drop down list is used to determine what search criteria will be used to find an invoice. I tried to set the Select method in the switch statement. I don't understand how to set the Select Method and the select parameters programmatically though . I tried a few different ways but can't make the compiler happy. My ODS is in scope in the code behind. I'm not able to access it's properties though. The BAL resides in a separate project that is a ClassLibrary. I also have a using statement for the ClassLibrary project in the code behind.

give me an example of how to do this?
