DataSource Controls :: Insert DBNull Value Into Varchar 1 Null Field
Aug 12, 2010
My database includes a table with sever filds which are defined as (varchar(1),null), I tried using DBNull.Value, null, ' ' but cannot get a null inserted in that field of the database,
I have a 20 to 30 fields on a form. Most of them are optional. However, the users can fill out what they want. If a user dosen't fill in a field when data is sent to the database it's sent as blank, instead of NULL. Is there a way I can generically say "for all textboxes if Equals("") then DBNull.Value". Without going through each and every textbox?
I am trying to do an update and if no selection has been made in a dropdownlist (integer) or date field I would like to insert a dbnull value. But I am new to Linq to Sql and wonder if this is possible and if so how to process. I have the following code but the DBNull.Value is giving me an error.
Dim context As New SondageDataContext() Dim repondant = (From r In context.Repondants Where r.RefRepondant = iRefRepondant Select r).Single repondant.Prenom = strPrenom repondant.Nom = strNom 'dates If dtAdhesion > Date.MinValue Then repondant.DateAdhesion = dtAdhesion else repondant.DateAdhesion = DBNull.Value End If 'Integer for dropdownmenu If iOccupation <> -1 Then repondant.RefOccupation = iOccupation Else repondant.RefOccupation = DBNull.Value End If context.SubmitChanges()

I am using Visual studio 2010 express and I have a details view databinded to an sql database table. When I use the Insert option on the view it causes an error due to it trying to insert a null into the primary key field.

here is my code for selectiong some records from db table
string strSql = "select * from mtblNBD where SentTo=@SentTo and InternalStatus Is NULL order by DeadLine desc"; SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand(strSql, con); com.Parameters.Add("@SentTo", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = (string)Session["uname"];

In following SQL query: SELECT DISTINCT CodeID, CodeDesc FROM Faults.TblFltClearCodes AS TblFltClearCodes
I am getting a list but there is no null value.Within this query I would like to get only one NULL value at the top and then the list.How to do this? Explicitly I am not allowed to give a null value in the table in DB.
I have req where i have to pass null value,if value coming from db is null.Problem here is the field datatype is 'Decimal' so all the time even though value is null ,its passing as zero.How can I pass a null value to decimal field in C#.
I'm using the linq to entity command to perform a record update. I want to set one of the fields back to NULL but I'm not sure how do it. I have a query such as
Dim record = From r in db.LISTS where r.ID = refID Select r record.Title = txtTitle.text if txtDetail.text = "" then record.Detail = end if
For example: INSERT INTO table (col1, col2, col3) VALUES ('value1','value2,'value3')But I would only like to insert the row if value3 isnt already present in col3 in some previous row. What is the best way to do that?And the insert command is run 50+ times in a loop (with different values each time for value3)
I have a column in my database which contains null value. Now after retrieving value from database i want to store that value in my txtbox. I am getting
[DBTableFieldIsNullException: Field 'Title' is NULL] exception.
I have a form and stored procedure that inserts the data from the form. It works fine except that if a field isn't filled in it doesn't insert a NULL into sql it inserts "".
I've tried a few different ways but none seem to insert NULL, the one below still inserts "", can anyone point me in the right direction.
Here is the required part of the code, if you require more just let me know.

I am trying to create a stored procedure where I can insert null values in columns that have a foreign key constraint and allow nulls. The columns I am trying to insert nulls into are commentid and imageid. I have created an Insert statement in a stored procedure and I get the foreign key constraint error. Can you tell me how to allow inserting data in the other columns without having to insert anything in the commendid and the imageid?
Here is my exec of the stored procedure that is not working:

I have a table in SQL where I insert data (CatCodes) using C# code but I want to insert ID code (DealerID) with it as well. Following is my Stored Procedure and C# code:

As you can see, I am insering CatCode values in Categories table using string cbspecialities.

I have a insert into statement thats inserting my numbers from a numeric text box on my aspx page. I am choosing the Amount Type then putting in a a number.
So i have a drop down that i select example Direct Charge then i enter 600.00 and click add it puts that in to the databse for me woot..
I then put in say Misc Credit and enter 200.00 it inserts in that into the database woot.
The look up table that has my amount types has a field called numeric opperator which is either + or - the Credit being a - and the Charge being a + then my stored procedure takes all my + numbers and adds them up and subtracts all the - numbers.
I want to change that so that it actuall be inserted into the table as a - number form the start. So I want choose Misc Credit enter 200.00 and click add then my event says o yea thats a credit insert 200.00 as -200.00
