Displaying Navigation Properties On A GridView Using EntityDataSource?
Apr 4, 2011
I have an EntityDataSource I've mapped to the entity Resident which includes two navigation properties (Building1, Room1). I've set my GridView to use this EntityDataSource and set the EntityDataSource Include property to Building1, Room1 so it includes these navigation properties and have added these columns to the GridView. When I run the application instead of displaying the associated navigation property it shows this: webHousingAdmin.BuildingHow can I get it to display the actual value? Code looks like this for GridView:
I'm face of a little problem when using GridView, an EntityDatasource and entity custom properties using a partial class. I'll describe it and I hope that someone has already find the solution because I try to figured out since two days.
I'm using EntityDataSource to retrieve my items, and i want to get the items for a particular region. (items and regions has a many to many relationship, thus item has a regions navigation property). and I'm using "IN" to filter the items. tried several combinations and it kept on throwing various errors. how can i get this sorted out:
Using the Entity Framework in n-Tier ASP.NET Applications which write by julie lerman in section "Example 21.10. A TemplateField, which can be used for navigation properties".
When I run the application I get a Compilation Error "The name 'Databinder' does not exist in the current context" someone can tell me what my mistake?
I warking with EF 4 in vs 2010 with asp.net application. In my page I put detailsview which connet to objectdatasource. I want to bind navigate property to text in murkup like this:
<asp:TextBox ID="txt_legalStatus" runat="server" Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"legal_status_codes.Term") %>'></asp:TextBox> according to this article (from o'reilly book)

When I run the application I get a exception "The ObjectContext instance has been disposed and can no longer be used for operations that require a connection" someone can tell me what its not working?
I've been learning MVC 2 and I have pretty much everything understood except for the model part of things, I understand what the model is but actually implementing it has me confused.
Here's my situation, I have my DB which has 3 tables;
Ideas - table of ideas Tags - table of tags IdeaTag - link table connecting the above 2 tables via FKs
So when using the Entity Framework (.edmx) designer in VS2010 I get 2 classes created in the Designer, which obviously map to my DB tables and Navigation Properties in Idea for Tags & Idea for Tag.
So this is all fine until I actually try to add tags to an idea, what's the best practise for dealing with Navigation Properties? I wanted to add a Textbox which will then map to the Tags property in the Idea class but I'm unsure how I'd go about this.
Most of the MVC tutorials which discuss EF or Linq to SQL are quite basic.
My master page is left navigation bar. It displays correctly on my aspx pages, but the other content of the aspx page is displayed right underneath the master page content. I don't want anything to be displayed under the left navigation bar. I want the other stuff to be displayed on the right side of the navigation bar. Is their any way I can do that. below is my code
We've been using the custom SQL table profile provider offered on the MSDN site.No problem configuring the new provider and saving profile values into our custom table while using the Create User Wizard.However, we cannot seem to be able to display the profile properties, using

The user is logged in, and there are no problems displaying all membership values and role values.
I am new to EntityFrameWork so bear with me here. I have a webpage (page1.apsx) n page2.aspx.
Page1.aspx is showing gridview of following items:
EntityID Name Description
Whenever user is selecting some Entity then I am passing this EntityID to Page2.aspx. In Page2 I am having EntityDataSource and GridView. Also, the value needs to be populated is from different tables in this page. How you deal with this in EntityDataSource and populating it in GridView?
I have two SQL Server tables with Primary Keys (PK) and a Foreign Key (FK) linking the two tables:
1) Table "Order"
OrderID, int, PK AddressID, int, FK ...
2) Table "Address"
AddressID, int, PK City, nvarchar(50) ...
Then I've created an (ADO.NET) Entity Data Model out of those two tables. Now on my (ASP.NET) webpage I put a GridView with an EntityDataSource. In my GridView I want to display two columns:
OrderID City (belonging to that order and linked by the AddressID-key) How can I do that? My problem is: When I configure the Entity Data Source I can select an "EntitySetName" which can be either "Order" or "Address" but not both, nor can I select any kind of relationship. If I select "Order" as EntitySetName then in the GridView I can add the columns
OrderID Address Address.AddressID
Adding the column "Address" displays empty cells. Adding "OrderID" and "Address.AddressID" displays the expected IDs. But how can I add the "City" of the related address to my GridView? Edit: Clarification:
The Entity Framework has created a class "Order" and a class "Address" corresponding to the database tables. The class "Order" has a reference to an "Address" object as a navigation property, corresponding to the 1-n relationship between Address and Order table. Basically I want to have a column in my GridView which displays Order.Address.City. I have tried to add a bound field with "Address.City" as data field to the GridView but it results in a runtime error ("no such property...").
I have developed an asp.net control that inherits from the gridview and its called gridviewex... i need some page navigation stuff to render underneath it for some custom paging that i am implenting.. All going well but i can't seem to add new controls to the controls.. For example what i wanted to do is add a asp.net Panel underneath the grid and than add linkbuttons to the panel. I have this so far but it gives an error Unable to cast object of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.Panel' to type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table'.
protected override void OnPreRender(EventArgs e) { base.OnPreRender(e); Panel uxGridViewNavigation = new Panel(); LinkButton linkButton = null; linkButton = new LinkButton(); linkButton.Text = "First"; linkButton.Click += new EventHandler(linkButton_Click); uxGridViewNavigation.Controls.Add(linkButton); this.Controls.Add(uxGridViewNavigation); }
I am using an ADO Entity Model for my ms-sql database.
My database has a Resellers table which has ResellerID (primary key, int) and Name columns along with other data.
I also have an Orders table which contains OrderID (primary key, int), OrderDate, ResellerID (foreign key to Resellers.ReselerID).
If I just do a query like:
[Code]....
I am able to reference order.Reseller.Name just fine with no problems.
However I have an EntityDataSource on my page as follows:
[Code]....
Notice the Include="Reseller" attribute in the datasource... I also have a GridView tied to that datasource as follows: I cut some of it off for breavity:
[Code]....
Now what I have listed above will run with no errors, but what I want to do is replace the column that displays "ResellerID" with the equivilant to order.Reseller.Name. In other words I want my grid to display the reseller's name rather than the numeric ID.
I have tried to change the DataField to "Reseller.Name" but that will generate the following error:
A field or property with the name 'Reseller.Name' was not found on the selected data source.
Is there anyway to do this without me writing a custom select statement in my code behind?
How can I maintain gridview page index while navigating away from the form and getting back by either the browser's back button or custom navigation button?
I have a nested gridview which has been working fine. Now I need to turn the inner gridview off based on some condition: a IF block is added to the existing RowDataBound event of the outer gridview. Now I'm getting "the Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. What should be the proper way to go about this? The code:
[code]....
In addition, is there a way to "switch" columns of the inner gridview? For example, column 1 is "City", column 2 is "Price". If user selects to sort by "Price", I woud like column 1 be "Price" and column 2 be "City". Is this has to be done programmatically or if there's other way?
I have a new VS2010 .NET 4.0 Web project and the Properties Folder has gone wierd on me. It has lost teh "Open" under the right click. There is no way to get a Settings file created now.
I am unable to get to the Settings grid and no Settings file is created. I tried the help and it has the normal trip of select Properties, Open (right click), Settings Tab, etc. etc.
I am using an ASP.NET GridView control, created dynamically with C# on a SharePoint web part. I am having some troubles setting the properties. Specifically, the ShowHeader property seems to be completely ignored, and it is set like so:
gv.ShowHeader = false;
This seems to work fine with the System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataGrid, which I had previously used. I'm also having this issue with many of the other properties, such as BorderColor, BorderWidth, etc. However, CellPadding and CellSpacing work just fine when set similarly:
gv.CellPadding = 2; gv.CellSpacing = 2;
I don't understand where the problem is. Here is the DataGrid code I had been using, which worked fine:
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(); da.SelectCommand = cmd; DataSet ds = new DataSet(); da.Fill(ds, "Specs"); DataSet flipped_ds = FlipDataSet(ds);
I'm trying to inherit the GridView such that I can add a collection of filter properties which can be shown at design or altered at run time which would be like:-
Is there a way to do this in asp.net 2.0 GridView.
I have a GridView containing records from a table which can be deleted or updated. If you want to edit a row, it should display the update and cancel buttons so that you can keep or cancel the current edit (I hide update and cancel as default). I am using the following asp for the button column of the GridView:
<asp:TemplateField visible ="true" > <HeaderTemplate> <div id = "header">Maintain</div>
I have one filed that is encrypted using Rajindal algorithm and stored in MSSQL db.When I retrieve that column in gridview it's displayed in encrypted. I have the code that decrypts it but the problem is:How can I all loop throw this column values in the gridview and decrypt them all and display it in the gridview decrypted.See my code below:
