Forms Data Controls :: Changing Data In A Gridview During Databinding Or After Databound?

Feb 2, 2010

im building a simple message messenger web application, i currently have a column in my database dedicated to the status of a message. Its bound to the third column in a datagrid.

After converting the column to a TemplateField and using a Label to fetch the data how do i change the text from the database to a small message, e.g. if the data in the database (as an interger) is 0. how do i change the interger to a string to display "UnRead". Do i need to do this during the databinding call or after the grid has been databound?

I know it would be easier to use a boolean and checkbox control but the interger column represents more values than true or false.

Forms Data Controls :: DataBinding And DataBound FormView's Events?

Dec 27, 2010

I have a very simple form that contains a FormView Control Bound with a SqlDataSource, The DefaultMode of the FormView control is "Insert". I noticed that when I run the page for the first time, the databinsing and databound events of the FormView Control occurs after the PreRender Event of the page ! I know very well the life cycle of a page, but I dont know when the data binding occurs in the life cycle of a page and if it can differ from a control to another.

Is there an article or a tutorial explaining all those things.

Forms Data Controls :: Several Data Formatting In Dynamic Databound GridView?

Jul 31, 2010

I am facing certain problems with the data formatting in GridView when the data is bound dynamically to it.

I have a DateTime column and want to only show Date from it and not the time.

Another Decimal type column which accepts decimal upto 4 places, I want to show decimal upto the places defined in the particular value (don't know how to put it in the correct way, but here is an example of what I want).

i.e.

1.0000 should be displayed as 1 after the databound in the gridview.

Similarly,

2.3400 --> 2.34
1.0050 --> 1.005
1.1000 --> 1.1

Forms Data Controls :: Databinding A Dropdownlist Within A Gridview?

Mar 29, 2010

I have a gridview in which I have two drop downs. One is populated with values that are static, so I have a regular sub that does that in the code behind. I tried to add code for databinding the other ddl to a datatable. I cannot get this to work. It just comes up empty. My asp code is fine, and the datatable definately has data in it - just nothing gets populated.

One other thing - the code for the static ddl has worked fine, but when I add this other block (either to the same sub as that, or dow the rowdatabound event) the static one doesn't work either.

Forms Data Controls :: GridView Sorting, Paging And DataBinding / When Control Causes A Postback GridView Is No Longer Sorted?

Jan 10, 2011

I'm trying to extend the GridView control to enable sorting and paging for any situation.

When using my control I am fetching data from a database and filling a DataSet with it, then binding the GridView upon every page load. My first question would be, is this the correct approach?

To sort the GridView I am overriding the OnSorting method which stores the sort expression and direction in the ViewState, then creates a DataView and utalises the Sort method to sort the underlying data. It then sets the Data Source to this DataView and rebinds the GridView.

Paging is handled by OnPageIndexChanging which simply sets the PageIndex property and again rebinds the GridView.

My problem is; when any control causes a postback my GridView is no longer sorted, presumably because it is persistently rebound. If I don't rebind it then the GridView is empty on postback since the data isn't automatically stored in the ViewState. I have considered saving the data source in the ViewState but I would assume that this is bad practice for large amounts of data? - also DataViews are not seralisable.

The only solution I can think of currently is to override OnDataBound and sort the data every time. This results in a double sort when paging triggers a postback which seems inefficient. Code illustration of this below,

[Code]....

I'm looking for the cleanest 'best practice' solution as this is a learning exercise more than anything else.

Forms Data Controls :: How To Set Selected Value Of Dropdown In Gridview After Gridview Databound

Nov 30, 2010

I have a gridview with dropdown boxes. As soon as the complete gridview is databound, I want to loop through ALL the rows and set the values of the dropdown boxe in a row based on the value of another column in the same row. The gridview is databound, all data shows up. The condition "If ddl.Items(j).Value = searchstring Then" evaluates as true, but somehow the selected item in the dropdownbox is NOT changed and remains "<ignore>"

Forms Data Controls :: Updating A DropDownList In The GridView Using Databinding?

Mar 24, 2010

I am trying to create a Gridview in which I can update the Project Officer name in the Gridview from a DropDownList.

The Project Officer DDL comes from a seperate query (SqlProjectOfficerName) as the other information (SqlDataSource1)... as you can see below.

When I select EDIT, the DDL appears and I can select from the list of Project Officers, but when I select UPDATE, the name of the Project Officer doesnot change.

review the code below and assist as appropriate to write the Project Officer's name back to the table.

Forms Data Controls :: Getting The First Row Of The GridView After Databound Display?

Nov 12, 2010

I need to be able to get the value in the "first" row of a Gridview as its getting or right after it is displayed.

I thought this would work but its coming up null.

I'm using the DataBound event to get the value of the control of a selected row...assuming the selected row is the first row which is probably the error of my ways. Any ideas how to get at this value easily?

Forms Data Controls :: Getting Gridview Total Rows Before Databinding Is Complete?

Jun 22, 2010

On every row in my datagrid, i need to set a control to visible/invisible depending on how many entries are shown in the grid.

If total rows are > 1, the control needs to be visible on every row. If rows = 1, it needs to be invisible.

BUT, how do i do this? If i just check my GridView.Rows.Count, the first row will (of course) be invisible, while the rest will be visible.

Can i check how many rows are pulled out of my datasource, or do i need to go through each row, setting visible true, AFTER the grid is populated.

Forms Data Controls :: DataBound GridView Checkbox Field Not Updating SQL?

Jan 14, 2011

So I am uding a GridView bound to a SQL data source.

I have a template feild bound to a SQL BIT

<EditItemTemplate <asp:CheckBox ID="chkSelected" runat="server" Checked='<%# Bind("Selected") %>

The original Item Template was Enabled ="false" I changed this so that you did not have to set the row to a state of edit in order to just select a row. I enabled it so that you could "select" any row with out putting it in a state of edit. the only value changing is if its selected or not. What i am trying to do is use the Data Source Update method to update the bit in the database based on the check box. Currently Update() returns 0. I believe this is because the row/feild is not marked as changed so the Data Source does not see it as something that needs to be updated.

What I am hoping for out of this is post is a way that the rows whom check value has changed to be marked as changed/edited so that the data source will update the database with the values of the check boxes. If all rows are updated this is acceptable as well. I know this is a super simple solution but i have been out of the .NET for a little bit.

Forms Data Controls :: GridView:Dynamic DataBound Column Creation With Hyperlinks?

May 10, 2010

I have a stored procedure (For Eg: sp_GetAvlData) that accepts a number of parameters, 3 of which are TimeFrom, TimeTo (as varchar) and TimeInterval (as int), formulates a Dynamic query and executes itself. So for instance, if I call the proc as follows:

[code]....

dtAvl is the datatable containing the results of my stored procedure.

The next step for me is to make each of the cells (except the cells in the first column) as a Hyperlink so that when clicked upon a cell, it populates 2 textboxes with the selected Timeslot and Name or ID (ID field is not displayed in Gridview). The textboxes are located on the same page but outside of the Gridview control.

The Challenge that I'm facing out here are:

1) As you can see, the field names being generated are not fixed and I have no control over them.

2) Because the field names are not fixed I'm not sure I can implement this using the Templatefields or BoundFields of Gridview.

Is there any way to achieve the Hyperlinking of these cells within the Gridview?
