Forms Data Controls :: Get Value Of A Label Control Inside The DetailsView?
Sep 1, 2010
I have a databound label control (i.e. Label 3) inside an Item Template that's in a DetailsView control. I just need to get the value of those label and compare it to some string. I tried several ways (i.e. Find control, DetailsView.Row) but nothing seems to work. I don't know if I'm using the FindControl methos correctly or if I need to access the Row first and do the findcontrol method.
I am trying (unsuccessfully) to pre-select a radiobutton control (within a DetailsView control) based on a value found in a database.
There are only two values: "Yes" and "No". A field in the database has one of the values in it and I want the correct item selected when the record is displayed in Edit mode.
All my other record fields are displayed correctly--this is the only one giving me issues. I am using vb.
i've a fileupload control <asp:fileupload> called (UpImage) inside the <EditItemTemplate> called (dtlAlbums) of a <asp:DetailsView> which is inside a <asp:GridView> called (grdAlbums), when i use the below code to find the control (UpImage) i get an error at the RED line that, (Object not set to a reference of an object)
I have a boolean / bit value in the database called "is_paid". Depending on this value I want to Disable a button. (the same would go for example to set a textbox not Visible, but anyway)
What I want is to Disable the button, if my boolean is 1 (true).
First I tried to convert my boolean value to text:
CS0030: Cannot convert type 'string' to 'bool' However, if I use it one a Label it works fine: <asp:Label ID="lblIsPaid" runat="server" Text='<%# Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("is_paid")) ? "True" : "False" %>'></asp:Label>
So another trial I did was to CAST the data from the database to be the text that I want, like so:
SELECT not_paid = CASE WHEN is_paid = 0 THEN 'True' WHEN is_paid = 1 THEN 'False' END ....
System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code Message=Specified cast is not valid. Source=App_Web_absjd3ob StackTrace: at ASP.manager_aspx.__DataBinding__control74(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:Documents and SettingsAdminMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2010ProjectsWebManager.aspx:line 219 at System.Web.UI.Control.OnDataBinding(EventArgs e) at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBind(Boolean raiseOnDataBinding) at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBind() at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBindChildren()
So I wonder, is it possible to change the "Enabled" property based on by boolean value?
I am trying to figure out a way to change the color of the text display in a label control or span inside a user control. The text needs to be displayed in a different colour based on the value returned.
<asp:Label ID="NameLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Name").ToString()=="Flying Bats" ? "Display the text in green" : "Display the text in red" %> '/>
The text value would be one of the two. The font color needs to be ether red or green based on whats been returned.I cannot figure out how to do it.
I have been used to using non enabled textboxes (with multiline as textmode option) in the past as a way to display multiple lines in a detailsview template. However, what I want to achieve is a scenario where I can use a label with a multiline option instead of a textbox. The reason for this is that I am outputting the content in the detailsview to pdf format and I do not want all the text in a label/textbox bunched up.
i am using visual studio 2008 vb. i have a dropdownlist in my detailsview populated with product id. when i select an id, the product name will appear on a label. however, when i change the product id in the dropdownlist, an error occur "Conversion from string "ProductName" to type 'Integer' is not valid." Here's the code file.
Protected Sub DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim lbl As Label = DetailsViewOrderDetails.FindControl("Label4") Dim ddl As DropDownList = DetailsViewOrderDetails.FindControl("DropDownList1") lbl.Text = ddl.SelectedValue("ProductName").ToString() End Sub
I am trying to programmatically set some lables inside a DetailsView that is populated by an ObjectDataSource. The detailsview is handled in an unusual way with one TemplateField that has one ItemTemplate that has one table that has two rows of significance and a boatload of bound items. I'll be working on the EditTemplate next. But now I need to set the top row lable values programmatically baised on the type of data that comes-up. I have scoured the Internet looking for ideas and found two possible approaches - neither worked. I get the error about something not being set to an instance of the object - or something like that.
Here is the ObjectDataSource:

Here is the DetailsView:

My first approach was to set the OnSelected property to the following code in the code behind, which executes:

My second approach was to delete that OnSelected property and try the following code in the code behind:
I have gridview in my page that users can edit their data in gridview... and in this gridview I define label that I want when users click on Edit button it change label3.text:
I have problem while set or passing value from code behind to asp:label inside gridView asp:templateField. 1st. I have gridView and using SqlDataSource control for data source. This is my gridView code?

2nd. I have SqlDataSource for my GridView. this is the code :

We can set value in the *.aspx or design view by using <%# bind("str_isi") %> like the asp:label control with ID=lblGvPengumuman but how we can set value in code behind?
protected void FormView1_ItemInserted(object sender, FormViewInsertedEventArgs e) { // Here I want to make a label "Saved" visible after user inserts the record into the formview. // the label is in InsertItemTemplate of the formview next to Insert and Cancel Links. It is invisible by default. // Is this the right event that i am in to do something like this.. if there is any other way to do this, }
I have a label control inside of repeater and I can't seem to get FindControl to locate the label inside of the repeater or even the repeater itself. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. OnItemDataBound is firing because "hello1" is being written but if I put anything inside of the For Next loop of rptMarketFundamentals, nothing is run inside of it.
<asp:Repeater id="rptMarketFundmentals" runat="server" DataSourceID="dsMarketFundamentals" OnItemDataBound="rptMarketFundamentals_ItemDataBound"> <asp:Label ID="lblOwnershipCategory" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("OwnershipCategory") %>' /> </asp:Repeater> Sub rptMarketFundamentals_ItemDataBound(ByVal Sender As Object, ByVal e As RepeaterItemEventArgs) Response.Write("hello1") 'this works Dim dataItem As RepeaterItem For Each dataItem In rptMarketFundmentals.Items Response.Write("hello2") 'this does not work Dim lblOwnershipCategory As Label = CType(dataItem.FindControl("lblOwnershipCategory"), Label) If lblOwnershipCategory.Text.ToLower = "family firm" Then blOwnershipCategory.CssClass = "highlight" End If Next End Sub
I have a label inside a formview that is not bound to anything.
Lets say I have a table of customers (with a key field called CustomerID), and then another table that has all their orders (with amount spent per order (OrderID) - based on CustomerID)
On the FormView there is a key field (CustomerID) (this is to be used as an INPUT parameter to a SP - which is to return the SUM of all the customers (Order_Totals). I could nest a view within a view I suppose to get this result, however, I just want a label to simply show this ScalarValue.
Basically, I want the label to show the aggregate (SUM) total amount each customer has spent on all orders. I have a SP called SumCost with two Fields (one a grouped by field CustomerID and the other a Summed Total of each customer's orders SumCost)
SELECT [SumCost] FROM [SumCost] WHERE ([CustomerID] = @CustomerID)
I test my SP and it works great, returning the value based on CustomerID - no problem.
My problem is getting the CustomerID passed into the SP on runtime (do I put it in FormView2_Databound) and putting the value into the label (CustTotalLbl) which is inside this form.
I've got a dropdownlist control that the user can select an an employee name and that should then fill in the detailsview control with specific information about that employee.
My dropdownlist control works fine and I do have AutoPostBack set to true. For some reason my detailsview doesn't work. There's no error message. The detailsview control just doesn't show up.
Here's my code:
This is the sqldatasource control for the dropdownlist control:
