Forms Data Controls :: Populate Dropdownlist In FormView With DataTable.load (DataReader)?
Jan 29, 2011
I have no problem when paging my FormView, the dropdownlist does not read the next record and keep the value of the first loaded record? All other textbox control behave normally and move from record to record excepted the ddl??Here the code.
Public Sub DoData()
Dim myConn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("LocalSqlServer").ConnectionString)
Dim myCommand As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("SelectSupplier", myConn)
myCommand.CommandText = "SelectSupplier"
I have a ddl inside the formview that I can't figure out how to wire up properly. The formview contains detail info, but the ddl needs to list the entire set to items. Then I want the ddl's selected value be set from the recordset intended for the formview. I think it's just a timeing issue s I would like your help. Thanks, - EJM.
I have a dropDownlist in a Formview Edit and Insert Template that is Bound to a Field, It is for a credit card expiration date, so I want to programatically populate it so it will automatically show the next 8 years from this year. Works fine!
Except When I add it to the Formview, and click on edit it gives me an error basically saying my record does not match the list item data, but it should since it shows the year just fine. So I am figuring that it is not binding the ListItems to the dropdownlist.
I have tried every event I could try and I always get the same error. I have tried the ModeChanged, DataBound, DataBiding, PreRender, Load on both the Formview and the DropDownList, but no go. How do I do this?

This works fin on a DropDownList that is not in a FormView, so I know its not the Code. and the record I am updating is 2010, so the record is not out of range
I have been trying for a while to populate a formview when I select an item from the dropdownlist. The dropdownlist is outside of the formview. For some reason, when I select a different item it does not change in the formview. Only the first item of the list shows up. I don't know where I'm doing wrong. I tried many things and suggested informatioin and I still could not get it to work. When I do try to switch I get this error message:
Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I have a FormView with an EditTemplate.And the EditTemplate contains an ascx control:
<asp:FormView ID="fvTicketUpdate" runat="server"
[code]...
The contents of the ascx control has TextBox and DropDownList controls binding to the results of the FormView's ObjectDataSource through Text='<%# Eval("field1") %>'and SelectedValue='<%# Eval("field2") %>'.This works fine and I have been building all of my front end pieces like this as <asp:Panels> rendering as FieldSets that go 100% across the screen.And we call these areas "strips" accross the screen.But now I've run into a problem.One TextBox and one DropDown bind fine to a Ticket Object.But the DropDownList that works has its <asp:ListItems> hardcoded before hand.Now I have DropDownList that gets populated through a WebService in the ascx's code behind like this:
public partial class UserControls_FormControls_PntipUpdtFaaInfo : System.Web.UI.UserControl { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!Page.IsPostBack)
[code]...
The Problem I think is the FormView is trying to do its Bind to the objectDataSource before its child ascx control is loaded in the Edit Template.And I am getting this error:
Databinding methods such as Eval(),XPath(),and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.Meaning that the control must already be databound to bind the selectedValue to a Property of the TicketObject.Is there an easy way to force the order of loading to make the PntipUpdtFaaInfo control load and have its Page_Load execute and bind ddlEquip before the FormView does its first dataBind and executing its Evals?Otherwise I have to take out the eval on the ddlEquip SelectedValue attribute and go to the Parent Page and hack and force everything to happen when it needs to.This layout has worked out well for me.All of the ascx area strips across the screen share the same Validation Summary for example.It allows me to think about one section at a time and the Properties to the Business Obect and CRUD methods as I go.But this is a big brick wall I've hit.
I have a partial class extending my Entity Model. I'd like to write a method that returns a collection of types from my entity framework model. For example, I'd like to get all the states to populate a drop down list. So I've written a method called getallstates(), similar to the example below:
[Code]....
I tried returning a list of Objects, and a list of states to my calling method to be used to bind to a drop down list. However I get an error that:
Server Error in Application. Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.Objects.ObjectQuery to type 'System.Collections.Generic.List`1[System.Object]'.
Im trying to populate my formview from a dataview in the codebehind and the order in which things are happening is causing it to fail.my formview itemtemplate is setup with some eval("fields") which is initially not populated (nothing bound to it) and the page loads ok. i think click on my graph which generates a query and populates a dataview.i then assign that dataview to the formview and run the bind.what happens when i actually run the app is that it says no data is bound to it.i set the debugged to stop at the point where my DV is assigned to my FV and the FV shows a data item count of 1 (as expected) if i keep stepping it puts me in to the eval statements on the aspx page says the data isnt bound. the error i get is
Databinding methods such as Eval(), XPath(), and Bind() can only be used in the context of a databound control.
I have created the templatefields in my dynamically created gridview, however, how do i get the values from my dataTable (which populates my gridview) to load into the templatefields I have created?
How would I go about populating a textbox within a FormView with the SelectedValue of a GridView? I'd like to know how to do this with the GridView on the same page as the FormView or a GridView passing a parameter from another page.
I am using a textbox and button to get the user input (account number), this will be used as input to a data access class object (SQL) when the button is clicked. This action should populate the Formview control. I have bound the Formview control to the SQLdatasource and configured the SQLdatasource control to the textbox.TEXT property. What am I missing? What do I need to add to button_clicked event to get all this to work? One other thing, the textbox is in a table area separate from the formview control. I have each of the templates inside of the formview control in tables. The input textbox and button are displayed but the formview control is not, all of this is in a master/detail object.
i am having the problem that i am using datareader to get contents in my asp.net page.But the page takes a lot of time to load.How to decrease the loading time of the apage and increase the performance of my page.
I have a drop-down list that is wired up to a datasource from one table to retrieve a Vendor ID and Vendor Name. This ddl is outside a FormView that is wired up to a datasource containing Vendor contracts.
When I choose a Vendor from the ddl, I am able to populate a textbox outside of FormView with the Vendor ID from the ddl. However, what I need to do is populate a textbox within FormView with the Vendor ID. FormView is in Insert Mode by default since my page will be used for Adding Contracts only.
I am inserting 4 fields into a table trought an SqlDataSource and a FormView element. These fields are ID (autopopulated), date(selected from calendar and/or todays date as default), Company name(user input), and UserID (taken from LoginName?).
I am able to inser the data in to the table when typing it, but I would like to have the UserID fiel auto completed and the date as well, or filled with the selected calendar date.
This is my part of my code.-------------------------------------------
I have an email contact form that I have successfully populated the account users Username and email address into text boxes
I also use a text box and session variables to send parameters to a stored procedure and return a single row result in a form view.
The thing I am having an incredibly hard time figuring out is how to populate a single textbox with the data from any of those fields. or the whole control as a single summary.
Just for starters I am actually an IT Manager and NOT a coder so this is entirely a hack job if there ever was one...
I am not clear when do I want to use a webservice over a sqlDataAdapter for dataRetrieval. I want to populate a repeater control which I have been doing from a dataTable that I fill from a sqlDataAdapter. Is there criteria when I would want to use a webservice to fill my dataTable?
I have a gridview that had a field called "GenericNameHepDrug" within the row. It's not the key field. I have an insert button that opens a formview in insertmode. How can I get the selected value of generichepdrug into the formview that opens when the button is clicked? I am using VB.NET 2.0.
here is some code from the source:

CLearly I am lost. I have been working with ASP.NET VB for 2 months. I'm in over my head with figuring this one out - I've been at it for days.
I am simply trying to get a querystring value and pass it to a textbox in a formview with the default view set to edit mode.
Protected Sub fv_Detach_Engine_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles fv_Detach_Engine.DataBound If fv_Detach_Engine.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Edit Then Dim tbx_IDProfileAccount As TextBox = TryCast(fv_Detach_Engine.FindControl("tbx_IDProfileAccount"), TextBox) If tbx_IDProfileAccount Is Nothing Then tbx_IDProfileAccount.Text = Request.QueryString("IDProfileAccount") End If End If End Sub
I am trying to populate the DropDownList from the codebehind. If this was not contained in a FormView, I would normally just do it in the Page_Load event. However, that does not work within a FormView, as as soon as I try to do it, accessing the dropdownlist in code, ie: theListcontrol = CType(formView.FindControl(listControlName), System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListControl)
the data binding mechansim of the FormView is invoked, which, of course, tries to bind the DropDownList to the underlying datasource, causing a *'ParentMetricCode' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Parameter name: value * error, since the DropDownList has not yet been populated. I tried performing the load in the DataBinding() event of the FormView, but then:
theListcontrol = CType(formView.FindControl(listControlName), System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListControl) fails, as the FormView.Controls.Count = 0 at that point. Is this impossible? (I do not want to have to use a secondary ObjectDataSource to bind the dropdownlist to)
Okay, here's something that I could easily do the hard way and manually wire up each form element and save it to a datatable in memory, but there has to be a more efficient way to do it.
Here's what I have:
1. A strongly typed datatable and tableadapter in a XSD name Orders
2. A formview control which currently is connected to an ODS connected to the Orders tableadapter, this makes it easy to wire up the databindings for each form field in design view
I would like to:
- bind the the formview to an instance of the strongly typed datatable, and then save the dt to a session object without interacting with the actual database
- load forms on subsequent pages from the dt in session
- ultimately save the dt info to an actual database table on the third page
I've read some solutions where a custom class is created, but to me this seems like almost as much work as wiring up the form field to the table columns manually in code.
This is what i want to do with my website. I want to pull data from an access query and and load it into a listview table. The user will sort through the data on the website and remove the rows she doesn't want. After the user is done, they will click a send button that will email the data to the appropriate party.I have read the access query data into a data table. I have the list view table built, but I am unsure how bind the data table into the listview table. Is this the best route to go? Will binding the datatable to the listview table allow the user to delete rows out of the datatable?
Protected Sub btnView_Click(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnView.Click Dim query As New QueryBuilder.SelectQuery("qryVendorReport") 'Fill data table with vendor information Dim sample As String = "" Dim results As New DataTable results = (db.fillTable(query.toSelectQuery))

how to bind the results datatable to lvdatasource. I tried a few different ways to do this with no luck. Maybe the syntax I trying to use is incorrect.
I am using 3 dropdown list in a gridview and the values for the dropdownlist is dynamic from database.based on first dropdown list selected value the values must fill to second dropdown and based on second dropdownlist selected value then items should load to 3rd dropdown and same for 4th dropdown list. Here if i select age,gender,sex, fist name, last name from the template name Human. The first drop down only populate the fields like Age,gender,Sex and so on., When the second dropdown list populate from the fields corresponding Template name Human, Finance, and so on.
