Forms Data Controls :: Noob Stuff: Querying Any Value From SQL Database?

Jan 10, 2011

I'm trying to create a search page that searchs one specific table in the entrie datbase.Basically someone writes what they want in a textbox in search.aspx, they click the search button, and it takes them to another page called search_results.aspx, carrying the inputted text along with it. What search results is supposed to do is at page load, its supposed to query the entire database for all values that are LIKE the text in the querystring, then transport the entire value set of each row that has a field matchign the query string, and then it's supposed take those values and put them in a template that presents them in the way that I want.

The only thing out of all that that I don't know how to do is write the code for taking the querystring and putting it up against all the values in the database like that. I know that you can find a value in a specfic comlumn, i.e.

SELECT Column1, Column2
FROM Table1
Where Column1 = 'blah1', 'blah2'

but how do you write it so that it looks at all the columns for 1 or 2 specfic values (the querystring), and then it returns the entire for each time it finds them?

DataSource Controls :: Querying SQL Database?

Jan 10, 2010

I have an SQL database which I wish to query, I have the queries set out and working using the SQLDataSource Control.Is there any way of using web methods to query an SQL Database.I realize this may not be ideal when the SQLDataSource control offers such functionality but it is for a piece of college work and I am not entirely sure which way they want it to work, as all it says is to "Implement a client application and a set of web services".

So is it possibile to use a WebMethod to perform SQL based queries or queries which are not SQL based and if so how do you go about creating them?

C# - Querying Database Using The Same Date Does Not Return Data?

Mar 2, 2010

I have a little problem with a query. I'm selecting data using the between command, But when I select the initial date equal to the final date the query doesn't show data.I know that the problem is the format. In my database I got something like this:2009-05-22 15:32:52.000. But when I send the date parameter from ASP.NET Page I sent only the Date (2009-05-22).So, I want to fix this thing. I cannot change the Datetime inside the database.I was thinking adding 1 day to the final date, So when the user select the same date I change the range behind the scene and then show the data. What do you think?

DataSource Controls :: Copying SQL Server Database Has Not Copied Membership Stuff Correctly?

Jan 19, 2010

I have just used the Import and Export Wizard to copy my production SQL Server database, which uses Membership and Roles. I used the option to copy all the data from existing tables and views and did not modify the mapping in any way. Things do not seem to have gone well.....

My source database has a bunch of views with names like vw_aspnet_Applications,vw_aspnet_MembershipUsers, etc. The copy database has these listed as tables!I wondered if running aspnet_regsql.exe might fix things. I needed to run this anyway to create all the missing stored procedures for Membership, etc. However, it failed with the error:Setup failed.Exception:An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 2714 and the SqlException message is: There is already an object named 'vw_aspnet_Applications' in the database.Creating the vw_aspnet_Applications view...I am a bit lost. All I want to do is to create a total clone of my production database for test purposes. Where do I go from here?

Forms Data Controls :: Copying Tailspin Stuff But With Gridview Controls?

Feb 7, 2011

I'm trying to setup a gridview control to have a column full with a hyperlink called "Details" that redirects to a template page that has a formview control. It's supposed to transport the productID of it's corresponding row to that other page, which already has an Entitiy DataSource setup to a database, and it's supposed to use that product ID to fill in fields on that Formview Template.

I was trying to copy this tutorial:

[URL]

but he uses a listview control instead. Reason I'm using gridview is because it's a gridview that filled on the spot after it's queried to by a search engine.

How would I accomplish somthing similar but with gridview controls instead of listview controls? What kind of syntax would I want to be looking at?

Create Methods To Do Stuff Like Opening The Connection To The Database?

Jun 22, 2010

I want to be able to create methods to do stuff like opening the connection to the database.Right now if I want to do that I have to put all the code to open the connection with the database in every class.What I did is create a new class called methods, this class is in the App_code folder.I have researched but don't understand how methods are created and how to call them. If someone can give me an example regarding a database connection method, I might be able to really understand how a method works. Basically, this is the code I have to use everytime I want to open a connection to the database:

string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["dbConn"].ConnectionString;

DataSource Controls :: Querying & Updating Data From Dataset?

Mar 15, 2010

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I will be as detailed as I can in explaining the issue;I have a dataset I have instantiated in a class file (vb.net), and fill the data succesfully. That data is then dumped into an excel file. What I need to do is to go through all the data in the dataset, and directly update the database, changing a "status" column from "pending" to "processing" based on the store number. As I am new to datasets (relatively speaking, of course), I am not quite certain how to accomplish this task. Below is the code I have so far:

If anyone could provide sample code to use, or could provide a quick bit of code I could just copy and paste in and test,

DataSource Controls :: Querying A Databse From Within A VB Sub?

Jul 2, 2010

I'm using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express with SQL server 2008 Express and I'm wondering if it is possible to query the database from within a VB subroutine located within pagename.aspx.vb, rather than just using the asp databound controls on the main page ?

I want to do something like this in the page load routine:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim username As String
username = GetUserName() 'calls function to get current username
Now connect to database and perform SQL command (SELECT FirstName FROM dbo.USERS WHERE UserName = username)
Assign the retuned data to a label: lblFirstName.Text
End Sub

Is it possible ?

Querying Remote Data Stores From Application?

Dec 5, 2010

I am writing an ASP.NET application that suppose to connect to many different data stores and query them for data. Each data store contains different data: it can be an SQL DB, an XML file, or anything that can store data. The result is always an XML.

The remote data stores expose a WCF service (which I will also implement) that will allow me to query the data store and return the results.

My question is: how exactly should I implement the querying mechanism? Should I define my own query language?

C# - Storing User Data In Cache Vs Querying Data Everytime?

Feb 1, 2011

If I store all my user info, upon login, in cache and just have a "my account" page that displays the user info from cache, is that a good practice? I'm wondering if a person changes his email or does any type of database modification then the cached variables will be the wrong ones. If I have to update the cache variables every time something happens to the database, is this even a good practice compared to just querying the data whenever needed?

Web Forms :: Get User Control To Do Stuff After Button Click Event Fired?

Mar 30, 2010

I have a user control that displays some database records when I first hit the page. When I click the submit button the page load event fires again, loading the user control again. Then the button click event fires inserting a new row in the database which is not shown on the page because the user control already did its stuff. If I could get the user control to do its stuff after the button click event I could then see the newly inserted row. I can do this by pulling the code out of the button click event and sticking it in the page load event. However, I think that would be bad code flow. How can I get the user control to do its stuff after the button click event has fired?

C# - Create Page Without All The Codebehind And Designer Stuff?

Sep 9, 2010

I would like to create an ASP.Net page without all the codebehind and designer stuff. Basically I want to go back to ASP classic, but keep the CLR and Base Class Library that makes .Net oh-so-wonderful. I'd like just a page something like this:

<html>
<body>
<div>
<%
int customerID = Request.QueryString["CustomerID"];
//Customer and DataAccess classes come from an extenal assembly
Customer customer = DataAccess.GetCustomer(customerID);
%>
You asked for Customer with ID: <%=customerID;%><br />
Name: <%=customer.Name;%><br />
Phone: <%=customer.Phone;%><br />
</div>
</body>
</html>

However there seem to be some problems with that. The Request object is only available from within a Page object. I wish to completely delete the codebehind and designer pages. No intellisense Anything else I should be aware of before I get too deep into this? No idea how to start pulling in extenal libraries

Get VB Anonymous Methods Working - Querying Lists?

Jul 1, 2010

I am trying to get my code working as per the instruction on [URL]

Public Delegate Function PredicateWrapperDelegate(Of T, A)(ByVal item As T, ByVal argument As A) As Boolean
Public Class PredicateWrapper(Of T, A)
Private _argument As A
Private _wrapperDelegate As PredicateWrapperDelegate(Of T, A)

Then I have the function which I have modified to use my department id variable (did)

Function DidMatch(ByVal item As ListDataItem, ByVal did As Integer) As Boolean
Return item.AssigneddepartmentID.Equals(did)

Then I try to call it from my code:

Dim children As List(Of String) = toplevel.FindAll(New PredicateWrapper(Of Integer, Integer)(Did, AddressOf DidMatch))

I then get an error on DidMatch ... Error Method 'Public Function DidMatch(item As DeptMenuData, did As Integer) As Boolean' does not have a signature compatible with delegate 'Delegate Function PredicateWrapperDelegate(Of Integer, Integer)(item As Integer, argument As Integer) As Boolean'.
