DataSource Controls :: Use FilterExpression On Three Fields While 1 Or 2 Are Blank?
Jan 20, 2011
I've been using the FilterExpression for the building of my GridView. I've built with this ability before, normally for searching for the name of an individual. However, the new project I'm working on has a small problem. I'm using an AND statement to filter the name via textbox and I'm also checking if the form was completely finished and if the form is reviewed via radio buttons.
Below is the code, but the problem is this. If any of the fields are blank (text field is left blank or the "both" is selected from the radio buttons) the form doesn't process my filter.
Is there an easy way to apply all three filters in a mix and match fashion (like no name, completed, not reviewed or any combination thereof)?
I would change the filterexpression depending to the choice of some DropDownList but, i've tryed with ObjectDataSource_Filtering event but it seems that non reevaluate the filter.is it the right event?i've to do any other operations after changing the filterexpression?
I get the Erorr: Input String was NOT a correct format.
The first three controlparameters are STRINGS and they work fine.
However the last two populate the controlparameter from text boxes that can only accept numbers and decimal point.
First the text boxes for {3} and {4} string parameters in the SQL filterexpression: [Code]....
And then the SQLDatasource control parameters[Code]....
The last two control parameters are the ones is question as they feed {3} and {4} parameters in the filter expression, NOTICE how I set the type="double".The data input is expected to be like 152.25 or 3.6 or 4 etc,So why am I getting this error: [Code]....
I have a GridView bound to an ObjectDataSource. Most of the columns are directly databound, however one column is not - it's value is determined in code. The value is being calculated correctly at the RowDataBound event, however when there is more than one data row in the GridView, the calculated fields for all of the rows is blank, but the top row displays the bottom row's calculated field
I'm trying to use the DetailsView to make Updates. The problem is that it can't handle empty fields even though the underlying table field allows nulls.
I get a message like this if I change the "State" field to blank when doing an update
The parameterized query '(@Cust_ID int,@Cust_DL nvarchar(7),@DL_State nvarchar(2),@Last_N' expects the parameter '@State', which was not supplied.I'm using an object data source control which is calling the EditCustomer method in my Customer Class. I'm not sure how to fix this.
I am exporting ASP.net filed values to Ms-Word using following code without any hurdels .I have around 70 fileds on my webform, all the fields are not filed with values some are blank.when i am taking the print out blank fields should not get printed.How can i modify following code.
I'm trying to automatically backup some registers of my database using bcp through asp.net. My approach is to create a temporary table with the data I want to save, use bcp to save the table to a txt file and the delete the table. My code is this:
[Code]....
For some reason, the sql command works perfectly in SQL Server, but doesn't even create the file when running in asp.net. Even if I create the file it just keeps blank with a 0kb size.
I tried deleted the command where the temporary table is deleted to check if it was a matter of that table deleting too quickly, but it still doesn't creates a single row on the table.
When I Login the page using username and password and then click the logout button and after again click Login button without entering username and password it will be login,I want to show error
I have a DataTable that's populated with Data. I'm looping through it and checking to see what the contents of the first cell of the first column are. If they have the same value on the current iteration as the previous, I want to insert a blank row into my DataTable. The problem is that the new row is being added to the end of the DataTable instead of between the two rows. How can I get it not to append the row to the end. This is what I'm doing:
i hav a gridview ... now i need to add certain number of rows... say 5 rows .... which would b blank .. the rows consist of itemtemplate of textboxes.. here is the grid ...
[Code]....
now i am binding this gridview with certain data say :
[Code]....
now the problem is if the row contains 2 data originally ... then it alwz shows up with only two rows with binded data... but what i want is 2 (databinded rows ) + 5 (empty rows with textbox ) = 7 grid view rows .... now how to do it ... after i hav binded the textbox with data already....with some empty columns corresponding to the above code ?
So I found an example on how to search gridview using filterexpressions on this site (Filter GridView with TextBox using FilterExpression in SqlDataSource in ASP.Net), but now if I try to search with an apostrophe in the textbox, the code fails.
Here's the link to the the article/source - [URL] .....
Have been trying to update some key fields but cannot get it working. I have the form working fine updating non key fields. I found some old threads on similar topics but none answering my question. I am using a FormView and a sqlDataSource
Question: What steps do I need to take to update key fields using a formview and a sqldatasource?
Additional Information: I have tried the following
Adding OldValuesParameterFormatString="old_{0}" to sqldatasource Adding to update parameters the old_myfield reference Adding DataKeyNames to the formview (note all key fields are in datakeynames and I only want to update the one)also when using the asp parameters do they need to be in same order as query and repeated as many time as used? Or just the same order as first referenced i.e. only defined once? Or any order?
How do I check if my value is empty AND Isnull? I need to check for both, using ISNULL is not enough because the data can change just so that it is empty.
Is there a way to list on the fly all fields in object context? in entity framework?
for example in my Log (object context) i have fields LogId, Name, CreateDate
I would like to loop through these dynamically and assign values. This would be useful when my current context changes to another table I would be doing this:
I have an SQL datasource that successfully enters customer details into a table. What it includes is the persons address. First of all we add the persons address, then we add the persons name to that address in a seperate physical procedure. i.e. on a different form.
What I need to do is try and stop users entering the same address twice. The way I have thought of doing this is by making a string field called AddressIdentity and have this contain the door number and the postcode of the address with all the spaces stripped out. Then when adding the address, it checks if this exists before adding it. However I cannot work out how to put the 2 fields together without using the codebehind file, which I don't mind doing if I need to, but I'm sure its avoidable.
Here is my code - I have only included the relevant parts:
but of course AddressIdentity is a string. Do I use ' ' marks with an & sign? Or can't I do this?? Maybe I need to use the codebehind anyway to see if the field exists before inserting it?
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?
At first, I had my datalist being populated by my class 'PM' - I did it all inside the Page_Load event. Since there was a dataset being returned, I could assign different variables to fields in the Datatable, like:
[Code]....
Now, for reasons I won't go into here, I'm changing to an ObjectDataSource, using the same method to do the 'Select' of data... How can I do the same variable assigning, with the ObjectDataSource?
I have created a .edmx for the northwind database. When I run the following statement, the correct number of detail records are retrieved and I can access the detail fields, but how do I access the order header record to view OrderDate, ShipAddress, etc...?
I have a situation where I have a file with each Account Record contains Monthly Expense Total Fields and Monthly Budget Fields for 2009, 2008 and 2007. I'm working with 72 fields (36 Expense and 36 Budget).
Need to create New Year Proceure that will shift data from 2008 to 2007, 2009 to 2008 and move Zeros to 2009 for both Expenses and Budgets.
I can do this using Parameters and Update SQL but I am under the impression that I must specificaly name each field in defining Parameters and SQL Update Command.
Since all fields are sequential withing a record, is there a way that I can use a For/Next loop to index my way through the fields moving data from one year to another?
When using DataReader I'm able to use reader.item(index) to access data record fields.
