Forms Data Controls :: Replace An Empty Concatenated Field With "unknown"?

Apr 16, 2010

I should probably post this question to a different forum but I've had such good luck on this one, I hate to leave...I have an SQLDataSource which has a concatenated field of FirstName + ' " + LastName AS FullName. That datasource is used to populate a Primary Contact combobox in the GridView based on the dsOrganizations datasource. ComboBox datasource = dsContacts, TextField = FullName, ValueField = ContactID, ValueType = Int32
nfortunately, not all the Organizations have Primary Contacts listed yet so the above substitution breaks and doesn't even show the Primary Contacts when they existWhat I need is someway to either leave the Primary Contact row blank in the DataGrid or replace it with "[none selected]"

Forms Data Controls :: Preventing The Display Of Titles For Data Fields If The Data Field Is Empty In ListView?

Nov 14, 2010

I have a listview control bound to an SqlDataSource. As part of the formatting I want to add a title to the data returned from my database. For instance if the data base returns a phone number I want to add 'Tel.' first. However I do not want to diplay this
title if the datafield is empty. Here is what I have done so far.

<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="BusinessLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# "Tel. "+Eval("Business") %>' CssClass="TeleStyle" />

Or This:Tel.
<asp:Label ID="BusinessLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Business") %>' CssClass="TeleStyle" />
</ItemTemplate>

Business is a phone number. If the data field contains a number I get: Tel. 1234 123456. If the field is empty I get Tel. If Business is null I want nothing dsplayed, how do I do this?

Forms Data Controls :: Detailsview Mode Updates Read Only Field To Null Or Empty

Sep 10, 2010

I have a detailsview on my page binding a table with information about the employees. They can update their information. Some info should be visible but not updateable. I could change the update command not updating but I like the control where I can set the column to read only. In that way the employee will find the data visible and they will see that the field/column cannot be changed. But having the column read only will return a null-value into that column when editing and updating anything. Why is that? Shouldn't it just update it's read only value?

Forms Data Controls :: How To Replace Data That Is In Details View, Details View Will Not Save Empty/null Value

Apr 28, 2010

I have a vb.net page that has a editable detailsview. When a user wants to erase the data for a field, they highlight the data, and delete/backspace over it, and click update. However, the original data is still saved. If they are replacing the current data with new data, that works fine and updates/saves correctly. This problem only happens when the current data needs to be removed.

Web Forms :: Required Field Validator Not Catching Empty Field?

Feb 3, 2010

I have a aspx page with a ascx control inside an ascx control and the required field validator is not hit on the action of the page.

The issue is with the 2nd nested ascx control. The field validators in the first ascx control validate correctly, but with the ascx control inside the ascx control there are issues.

The nested ascx control is a repeater control and this may be the reason, but I am unsure.

I'm not exactly sure what question to ask, but I'll list a few below.

How do I attach the field validators up a level to the 1st ascx control?

Is it possible to put required fields into a nested ascx control?

Web Forms :: Retrieve Data From Querystring Having Two Concatenated SQL Columns?

Apr 16, 2010

I have two Drop Down Lists (DDL), DDL1 & DDL2 respectively. DDL1 gets populated with "State" from a backend database where as DD2 gets populated with TWO fields "LATA" & "LATA Name" concatenated together. Here are the codes for the DDL2 :

[Code]....

The code behind the Submit button is using Querystring and directing to the next page:

Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Response.Redirect(String.Format("Option1_result.aspx?ddl2={0}& ddl3={1}", HttpUtility.UrlEncode(DropDownList2.SelectedValue),
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(DropDownList3.SelectedValue)))
End Sub

My problem is: How to retrieve data from a Querystring which contains data from two concatenated SQL columns? I want to selectively retrieve only the first three digits in the ddl2 Querystring which will give me the LATA number.

VS 2010 / Json Replace Null Values With Empty String?

Jun 1, 2012

If I have JSON like this and pass it to the engine I am using to create a PDF file, the word "null" appears on the PDF. This isn't really my example, but I googled "json replace null empty string" and this was a hit, which is a good representation of my data, also:

{
"relationship": {
"type": "relationship",
"id": null,
"followed_id": null
}
}

We use a rendering engine that creates a PDF from a fixed template and variable data in the form of a json string. But our customers don't want to read that the id is "null", they want to read that the id is blank. In my C# program, the json is just a string, so I can easily do something like this:

jsonString = jsonString.Replace("null,", ",");but the issue is I can't replace null-comma with a comma, because then it's invalid json.

how to I make the rendering engine *and* my customer both happy?
