Forms Data Controls :: Bind A Collection Within A Collection To A Gridview?
Jul 26, 2010
I have a list of objects that I want to bind to a gridview. Creating that list and binding it works fine for most of the public properties in that list.
There are some objects contained in each of those objects... for instance there is an Address object.
object.Address.Line1;
object.Address.Line2;
When I bind this to my gridview, I have no issues with stuff like object.DateRegistered, but how can I access things like object.Address.WhatEverProperty? I always get this error:
"A field or property with the name 'xxx.xxxx' was not found on the selected data source."
public void bindgrid() { MembershipUserCollection users= Syste.web.security.Membership.GetAllUsers(); Gridview1.datasource=users; Gridview1.databind(); }
when I hover over the users using break point I have this userlist->non-public members->Values->[0] bill,[1] ian,[2] jeff-> comment,creation date,email,is approved, is locked out, is online, last activity date, name ...etc I want to bind name,creation date, email to my grid. Is users an object? Why am I not getting any fields if I use Users. ? But i get them as non-public members. How to bind to grid ? I never binded object to grid
i am developing a sharepoint webpart. In this webpart i need to use a repeater control. The problem is, i can only use codebehind for creating and using the control. So i have some questions:
1. After creating the repeater control in codebehind, how to create some templates (itemtemplate, footertemplate, etc.) and use it?
2. How to bind a object collection to a repeater control?
I have an ASP.NET app with lots of textboxes all over the page that need updating at various points through program execution.
These textboxes actually belong to a certain class, so for easy updating I thought I could create a Dictionary(Of string, object) and add the control.ID and the control to it and then for updating do something like this:
(in case of updating textbox.text):
[code]....
However the text property of the textbox does not actually get updated. I'm mainly trying to avoid having to manually do textbox.text = somestring for each one of my textboxes every time I have to update them.
i have an objectdatasource bound to the System.Web.Security.Roles getAllRoles methods, this method returns an string[] with the names of the roles, then i wanna bind a gridview with this datasource, but it shows me just a one column named length(the length of each role name), how can i instead the length of the string that represent the role name, put the role name?
I have a gridview with daatsource from MembershipUserCollection. When my collection doesn't contain any records the gridview just disappears. I want to display the empty gridview indicating no records exist rather than the grid just become invisible.
I know that if I have set a cookie on a previous request, it will show up in my Request.Cookies collection. I want to update my existing Cookie. Are the cookies from my Request.Cookies collection already copied to my Response.Cookies collection? Do I need to add a new cookie with the same key using Response.Cookies.Add(), or do I need to use Response.Cookies.Set()?
I have a custom object and a generic collection of this object.When databinding, how can you get a reference to the object's collection similar to how DataRow.Table works? I understand I may need to write code to handle this but I'm not sure where to start.I considered adding a property to my custom object class to store the collection in, but would this generate too much overhead setting this for every object in the collection?
I've been pulling my hair out over this one... I've searched on the net and even in the forums, but can't seem to come up with an answer for a simple question.I tried the following code inside my html to get the selected value that comes from our database into the grid and it doesn't work. I am positive that a value exists for the itemType. It is 1. Instead of Checked, I tried SelectedItem and SelectedIndex. Neither of those worked.
I erased the above code from my grid and inside the ItemDataBound event, I placed the following code, but don't know what other code I should place next after it. I know the value inside "itemType" is 1 by debugging it.
<code> RadioButtonList itmtype = e.Item.FindControl("rblItemType") as RadioButtonList; </code>
How can I simply find the selecteditem in the list coming back from the database inside the itemdatabound event?
I'm using HttpModule to capture requests to the web server. Before processing the page I'd like to check the values contained in some keys of the Request.Form collection and according to some logic change if necessary. I'd like to do this when BeginRequest event is fired. The problem is that the Request.Form collection is readonly.
This is my first attempt at paging on a listview. The first time my page loads it loads the listview fine, but when I try to use the paging I get the following error:
Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index
Here's my code:
[code].....
When I take the following line out I don't get the error, but i need it to populate my controls:
I got 2 listboxes in a window form, one on left and one on right. The 1st listbox have some items while the 2nd listbox is empty. Also there are 2 buttons between the 2 listboxes which used to move item from/to the 1st and 2nd listbox.My problem here is that after I bind the data to the 1st listbox (from a dataTable, using DisplayMember and ValueMember) , and I try to move 1 of the item from this 1st listbox to the 2nd listbox and I want that the selected item is also removed from the 1st listbox by:
But the selected item is not removed from the 1st listbox.Also on deselect button when i move item from 2nd listbox to 1st listbox,it displays error message "Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set."
I placed one FormView and one GridView conrtrols on the same page with one linqdatasource that is connected to both controls via their DataSourceID properties. While the GridView works without any problem (on updating) the FormView doesn't update the record.I traced the FormView events and found that in FormView1_ItemUpdating the argument e.NewVaues.Count = 0 as well as e.OldVaues. Count (also zero). Getting items from e.NewValues[index] or [key] causes an obvious exception. However, all the bound contolsn this wa
I am binding a datalist to some table 0 of a dataset from the database. When I check the number of rows in the dataset table 0 it's coming as 129 but when I check the count of the datalist items(using Datalist_Name.Items.Count) inside the datalist item created event I am getting a maximum count of 128.Due, to this I am unable to assign values to the last label control(last as in the last row) present inside the datalist dynamically. I am not sure where I am going wrong. I even tried to replicate the same code inside the ItemDataBound event but even then I am getting the same error.
I am extending the GridView control to include a custom pager for a custom paging scheme (only one page returned from the database at a time rather than all records). In my testing a discovered an issue - on my last page of data, the GridView's rows property always returns a collection of PageSize page, rather than the actual number of records on the page, with non-data fill records being empty rows.
For example, suppose I have 23 records in my database. Assuming a PageSize of 10, when I page to the last page of data the gridview it properly displays the last 3 recrods - but when I handle the GridView's CommandName="Select" event the GridView's Rows collection contains 10 records, the last seven of which are empty.
I set a break point in just before I call GridView.DataBind and verified that the DataTable used as the DataSource for the last page of data does in fact only contain the 3 expected records. But when I set a breakpoint on the Sub that handles the "Select" GridView command, the GridView.rows collection contains 10 records, the last 7 of which are empty.
This post[URL] and comments make note of the issue but the solution prescribed by the author does not seem to work.
Attached are some snippets of my extended GridView and the two methods from my page where I mentioned setting breakpoints above.
