Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Column With Data From Related Table In SQL Db?

Aug 18, 2010

I've got a gridview that is databound with LINQ in the code behind. One column shows the id from the table. I would like to show a more human friendly product name that is associated with that id number but is from another table. Thought I had it figured out by entering a Template field in the gridview tags (in the .aspx page) and an item template within that with

<ItemTemplate>
<%Eval(Products.productName")%></ItemTemplate>

but when I try to build it says this can only be done in the context of a databound control.

Can I add this column within the gridview tags or does it have to be done from the code behind?

Forms Data Controls :: How To Show Data From A Related Table In A Gridview / Entitydatasource

Feb 23, 2011

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?

Sorting A GridView Column Related To Other Table?

Jun 10, 2010

i have a GridView bound to a DataView. Some columns in the DataView's table are foreignkeys to related tables(f.e. Customer). I want to enable sorting for these columns too, but all i can do is sorting the foreignkey(fiCustomer) and not the CustomerName.

I have tried this without success(" Cannot find column ERP_Customer.CustomerName "):

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Customer" SortExpression="ERP_Customer.CustomerName" >

A tried also the DataViewManager, but i've a problem to detect the table to sort:

[code].....

I have to apply the sort on a distinct table of the DataViewManager, but this table would differ on the related tables.

I have bound the TemplateColumns in Codebehind in RowDataBound-Event f.e.:

Dim LblCustomer As Label = DirectCast(e.Row.FindControl("LblCustomer"), Label)
LblCustomer.Text = drCharge.ERP_CustomerRow.CustomerName 'drCharge inherits DataRow

What is the recommended way to sort a GridView on columns related to other tables? I could build a custom datatable with the customername instead of the foreignkey and bind this column to the TemplateField. But then my huge dataset in the model makes no sense anymore.

EDIT: I have a model with a Dataset. I'm binding one Datatable(ERP_Charge) from it to my GridView(actually i take a Dataview from that Table). In this Datatable are columns that are related to other Datatables in the Dataset(relations are defined). When i want to make the grid sortable its no problem on the columns that belong to ERP_Charge.

But the columns with foreign keys to other table could not be sorted because the Gridview shows f.e. not the CustomerID but the Customername. I get the Customername in RowDataBound. Normally i would join the tables and add a Datacolumn for the Customername.

Forms Data Controls :: Gridview Update With Related Tables

Nov 24, 2010

I have a problem in getting my gridview to update. The datasource gets its data from 2 related tables using the following select statement:

SELECT StudentSubject.StudentID, Students.[1stName], Students.Surname, Students.Grade, StudentSubject.Subject, StudentSubject.GradeOverall, StudentSubject.ReportYear, StudentSubject.ReportSession, StudentSubject.Criteria1Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria2Grade,
StudentSubject.Criteria3Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria4Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria5Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria6Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria7Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria8Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria9Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria10Grade, StudentSubject.Comment
FROM (Students INNER JOIN StudentSubject ON Students.StudentID = StudentSubject.StudentID)
WHERE (StudentSubject.Subject = ?) AND (StudentSubject.ReportYear = ?) AND (Students.Grade = ?) AND (StudentSubject.ReportSession = ?)

The ? stem from combo box controls which I use to filter the results So far so good!

However, when I try to update the data in just one of the tables, nothing happens, no error, just no update. The update statement I'm using is:

UPDATE StudentSubject SET GradeOverall = ?, Criteria1Grade = ?, Criteria8Grade = ?, Criteria7Grade = ?, Criteria6Grade = ?, Criteria5Grade = ?, Criteria4Grade = ?, Criteria3Grade = ?, Criteria2Grade = ?, Criteria9Grade = ?, Criteria10Grade = ?, Comment =?
WHERE (StudentID = ?) AND (Subject = ?) AND (ReportYear = ?) AND (ReportSession = ?)

I've tried this with a similar setup with just on table and it works fine.

<asp:AccessDataSource ID="DSGrid" runat="server"
DataFile="D:RW docsVisual Studio 2008WebSitesFellbach ReportsApp_DataReports - Copy.mdb"
SelectCommand="SELECT StudentSubject.StudentID, Students.[1stName], Students.Surname, Students.Grade, StudentSubject.Subject, StudentSubject.GradeOverall, StudentSubject.ReportYear, StudentSubject.ReportSession, StudentSubject.Criteria1Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria2Grade,
StudentSubject.Criteria3Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria4Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria5Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria6Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria7Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria8Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria9Grade, StudentSubject.Criteria10Grade, StudentSubject.Comment

DataSource Controls :: How To Query A Table That Contains An XML Column And Bind The Data To A Gridview Object

Jun 21, 2010

I have tried to query a table with an xml column by using XQuery and I can't get the Select to work.

All my knowledge/understanding of the subject comes from this MSDN article:

[URL]

so I am probably overlooking something minor:

I tried this query Select col1, Phone.Query('element CellPhone {I am not sure about what goes here} I tried {data('Phone/cellPhone} from aTable Where Phone.Exist('/Phone/cellPhone/text()[contains.,"412-8977"]') = 1 This syntax is definitely not fun.

Data Controls :: Display HTML Table Inside GridView TemplateField Column

May 7, 2015

I have a table with lots of fields. To display every record that has lots of columns on a web browser will inconveniently force the users to drag the scrollbar to the right.

Is it possible to divide each record to two or three inner rows in gridview?

e.g. My table has these fields: - UPC - Description - AdType_Week1 - AdType_Week2 - AdType_Week3 - AdType_Week4 - AdType_Week5 - Price_Week1 - Price_Week2 - Price_Week3 - Price_Week4 - Price_Week5 - OrderStatus_Week1 - OrderStatus_Week2 - OrderStatus_Week3 - OrderStatus_Week4 - OrderStatus_Week5

Instead of showing everything in one header like this:

UPC | Description | AdType_Week1 | AdType_Week2 | AdType_Week3 | AdType_Week4 | AdType_Week5 | Price_Week1 | Price_Week2 | Price_Week3 | Price_Week4 | Price_Week5 | OrderStatus_Week1 | OrderStatus_Week2 | OrderStatus_Week3 | OrderStatus_Week4 | OrderStatus_Week5

I would like to show it like this:

|-UPC-|-Description-|-AdType_Week1------|-AdType_Week2------|-AdType_Week3------|
01 banana type abc type def type feg
|-Price_Week1-------|-Price_Week2-------|-Price_Week3-------|
$97.51 $78.48 $41.45

Forms Data Controls :: Error When Inserting Into Table - Cannot Insert Explicit Value For Identity Column In Table

Aug 11, 2010

I am working on a web app for an online photo album. It is the last project in Scott Mitchell's book: "ASP.Net 2.0 in 24 hours".

I am creating a page where users can enter new photo images. The functionality for uploading an image will come later. I am working on just inserting a new row into the Pictures table with an optional category, a required title and a required description.

I am getting an error when I try to insert a new row.

Here is a screenshot of the page with a shot of the dropdown list.

The Categories are user-specific. I am getting the correct values retrieved.

[URL]

There are two pretty simple database tables involved here.

NOTE: The CategoryID and PIctureID are both autoincrement integer columns.

[URL]

The page uses a DetailsView that uses a SqlDataSource that uses the Pictures table. (The DetailsView's Default Mode property is set to "Insert". The "Enable Inserting" checkbox is also checked.)

The dropdown list uses a dropdown control that uses a SqlDataSource that uses the Categories table.

When the "Insert" button is clicked the CategoryID value associated with selected (Category) Name on the dropdown list will be used along with the Title and Description values to insert a row in to the Pictures table. (If no Category value is selected, then a null value will be used for the CategoryID. This is OK because the CategoryID column in the Pictures table allows nulls.)

My problem is that I am getting this error:

Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Pictures' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.

(FYI: I have the full version of both Visual Studio and SQL Server.)

Here is my source code for the page:

Forms Data Controls :: Finding Best Way To Handle This Scenario - Select Gridview Row And Show Related Info Below?

Dec 12, 2010

almost typical master-detail scenario except the 'detail' data I want to display below the gridview will be coming from both the table that is bound to the gridview (master) and a related table.

simplified example: tableMain with field1, field2, field3 bound to master gridview. I need to select a row from the master gridview and have a form display below with field4 and field5 from tableMain, as well as all fields of tableDetail where field1 of tableMain equals field1 of tableDetail.

Is this what a 'formview' control is for? or do I just arrange my own controls to accommodate the data? Would a formview work considering my source will be partially from both the main table and the detail table? This is one of the scenarios were I know I could come up with something using none of the databound controls (except the master gridview), but I want to use the controls provided when it makes sense to do so, and utilize their benefits etc...
