DataSource Controls :: Return Default Value From LINK Query?
Sep 2, 2010
I am using the query listed below which includes multiple joins, in the result of the query I need to do some value replacement valuesExample: db.ASSETS.BUILDING_ID=300 that ID does not exist in db.BUILDINGS, in that case I need to return BUILDING_ID=0, db.BUILDINGS.NAME="Unassigned"
On one line the Code may be OX01 and shape Hexagon for example
Then the next line the code is still OX01 but the shape is Triangle.
What I want to do is be able to pull back data for every line that is equal to a unique Code column. in the above example OX01 Hexagon would be returned but not OX01 Triangle.
I've tried using SELECT DISTINCT but it brings back all records and doesn't filter them correctly.
I've considered having another column which could have Child/Parent data so that only the parent is returned but i'm sure there must be a better way of doing this.
I am trying to fill a gridview with the data from Product table selecting few columns . I am using 3 - tier architecture and in DAL getproduct(userid) I am writing the query but cannot figure out exactly how to get that working .. here is piece of method I wrote
I am working on a small project. I ran the query below to get the maximum userid and increase it by 1 to create a new userid. However, when I run the query, it does not display the values that I enter into the database using insert statement. For example, if I open the table called login, I can see there are three records. If Irun the select statement, it only return one record which is the one that I enter manually when I first created the table. If I run the same select statement and give it a user id that I created, it returns the correct result.
I have a Dynamic Data Website that I created after watching the video tutorials on this website (I'm new to programming, but not computers).I have a SQL Table named 'Adult' that has a 'DOB' column. I would like to add an asp:label to the Default.aspx that does a LINQ to SQL query to determine if it's someones birthday today and if so display their name and age.
Created a asp page using vbscript to calculate a value (works fine). I'd like to return the value as a clickable link, which would obviously redirect the user somewhere else.
1. I have a GridView on my page and it uses sqldatasource with parameterized query. What I want to do is, on page load (where nothing has been selected so no parameter supplied), I want it to query everything (something like SELECT * FROM [this_table]) but since my SelectCommand is something like
SELECT * FROM [this_table] WHERE [this_column] = @someParameters AND [that_column] = @someParameters.
Can I play around with default value to achieve something like that but how ? Now, when the page loads, it doesn't show anything (No Gridview).
2. On my page, I made something like (username, gender, address, and more) and one single search button. That means, no single control enable auto postback. What I am trying to accomplish is building dynamic query
(if username specifed -> SELECT * FROM [this_table] WHERE [username] LIKE @username).
If both username and gender are specified (SELECT * FROM [this_table] WHERE [username] LIKE @username AND [gender] = @gender) and you know the rest. How can I do this using GridView and SqlDataSource ? To my knowledge, I can only specify one SELECT statement in a sqldatasource.
By right clicking on my database i created a query in server explorer. But where are this query stored can't find them back. I should aspect that their is a folder query's like there is a folder tables but this isn't the case.
I have the below c# method to populate an asp.net frontend control from a linq query. The only valid way I seem to be able to reference the query variable "result" is if I use the attribute "SingleOrDefault" but unfortunately this forces my query to return just the one single set of data for every unique primary key UserId value from my query, where I require the unique data attached to each different UserId value to be returned, how can I achieve this using linq? Note, I am passing the UserId value into my method from a public variable which is also below.
Dim MediaQuery = From m In dB.DOWNLOADS _Where m.ID = id _Select
which returns a record from the database. One of the fields in the record is a FK to another table. I need to read this value to be able to set a dropdown based on the ID but I can't work out how to access it. For a standard record I can just do the following txtTitle.Text = MediaQuery.FirstOrDefault().TITLE
However with the foreign key it doesn't work like that. I've tried drpGroup.SelectedIndex = MediaQuery.FirstOrDefault().DOWNLOAD_GROUPS.ID where DOWNLOAD_GROUPS is the FK field but it returns Object reference not set to an instance of an object. If you're simply wanting to read some values from a single db record in the entitiy framework and one is a foreign key how should I go about getting the value?
I got 3 "user role specific" Areas and 1 Public Area.Also, I have a "Shared" directory for controllers that's shared among the Areas.
On the Shared views, I have a "Return to [whereucomefrom]" link, that will depend on ..well, where you come from. If it was only the previous url I needed, I could just figure the referer and make that the url. But I also need the link text.
Say for instance "New Message" in Shared can be called from the "Customer" Area. If so, the return link would be "Return to my Orders", opposed to say "Return to Messages" for another area.So I want to pass on a return url and return url text from the link in an area view, so the shared view can display that link. I am not allowed to use Session and want to keep my URL's clean (sth like /Messages returnurl=customer/orders&linktext=Return to Orders" will not do).
I'm working on a URL Helper extension method as we speak, but I know in advance that is going to create an ugly url....
I've got a masterpage wih a LoginStatus control on my masterpage, when I click this it brings up loginpage.aspx. I log in and then it automatically returns me to default.aspx, how can I chage this to EngineersHome.aspx? I've tried changing the webconfig file so it has
authentication mode="Forms"> forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" defaultUrl="EngineersHome.aspx" /> </authentication>
but this hasn't worked. When I logout using the LoginStatus it directs me to Default.aspx which is fine, I want this to stay as it is.
I have a dropdownlist that is not bound to a datasource, I have hard coded a few items in the list cause the list is always constant and will never grow and there are only 4 entries init. Anyway, after i load the page and make a selection from the dropdownlist and do a postback, the dropdown always returns to the default selection...which tells the users to make a selection.How do I get the dropdown to keep the selected value after the postback? I want to be able to display the selected value all through until another selection is made.
So I've created a default Visual Studio project for a webservice and I invoked the HelloWorld method. What I get is indeed a "Hello World" string, but with some additional "crap" attached:
I have created a stored procedure that reset my tables' identity value. The store procedure works fine when I didrectly run it in my ms sql server 2008. It reset my table Identity value However, when I call it from my function reset, it returns -1, and does not reset my table identitity value. The function to restet my identity value is:
[Code]....
My stored procedure is
[Code]....
To call the the function:
Dim result As Integer = util.resetTableIdentity("myTable", "id", 60) util.print(result)
I got result is -1, and it does ot reset my table identity. Why? How to resove it?
