Forms Data Controls :: Switch FormView To Edit Mode From Repeater ItemCommand?
Sep 30, 2010
The following code successfully displays a record in a FormView and sets the FormView mode to 'Edit' when the user clicks on a LinkButton within a Repeater, however the record is not Updated. If I don't change the .SelectCommand and call .DataBind, I'm able to update the first record that is displayed. Naturally that's a moot point because the idea is to be able to update the record that the user selects in the Repeater.Because of the design of the FormView and Repeater, the record *must* be updated via the FormView. Updating the record via the Repeater is not an option.
This is what i have using VS and VB: formview that is bound to a sqldatasource. In the formview i set up three panels and the visibilty is controlled by three buttons. I want to be able to click the edit link button and have the panel that is visible in readonly mode be the one visible in editmode
there are 2 pages (SummaryGridviewPage.aspx and FormviewPage.aspx) there are insert, item and update templates in the FormviewPage 1st case - there is no problem to insert new record, select and update action in the FormviewPage
2nd case - However, there is problem when i select a record in GV and direct to FormviewPage for edit this code is added in Formviewpage to open the record at readonly mode, no problem
Private Sub RF_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init If Session("RecordID") <> "" Then ' to check New or Old record SqlDataSourceRF.SelectParameters.Item("New_ID").DefaultValue = Session("RecordID") FormViewProject.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.ReadOnly) End If End Sub
however, no record if go further from readonly to edit mode then Code is added to the Edit button
Protected Sub BtnEdit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) FormViewProject.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit) SqlDataSourceRF.SelectParameters.Item("New_ID").DefaultValue = Session("RecordID") FormViewProject.DataBind() End Sub
Now edit problem is solved but when go back to the 1st case (new record, and then edit) Now new record can be inserted, and then show it in readonly mode. but then try to go to edit mode, no record show i think BtnEdit_Click code is conflicted with the built-in "Edit" command Could anyone show me some info how formview retrieve specific record in a proper way?
I have a combobox that is used as a control for Formview, so when the user selects a name from the combobox the data in formview displays in edit mode. However, some if the data that is displayed in formview needs to be empty. For example if the Date is being pulled in, it needs to be empty or null in edit mode.
I'm having a hard time solving what should (I think) be an easy problem. I have a formview defaulting to Editmode. One of my data fields is a binary image. How can I change the editItem template to allow a user to upload a new image into the binary image field?
In web config file I have add key values specified.
In the formview I have labels on edit , item and insert mode that I want to display all the time by getting those values from web config. I'm able to do that with no problem but when I change the modes between edit to insert or item view, I lose those label values until I hit the "select" twice from the Gridview, those values re-appear. Below is the snippet of the code. What do I need to do to retain the category values all the time?
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 have a table in my database called "Profiles". This holds data on Female and Male personal characteristics.On my aspx, I have a formview in edit mode which is binded to an object data source with a GetDataByUserId Select methodwhich retrieves data from the "Profiles" Table via a DAL.The "Profiles" table has some columns which relates to females only and some just males and some are generic to both.See example below
UserId - / of Type GUID GenreId / of Type BOOL. Hip Size (For females) Dress Size ( For Females) ChestSize (For Men ) TrouserSize (For Men) Weight ( For both )
When the User logs in , they go to an update Page which has the Formview in Edit Item Mode and contains drop down Lists whichare binded to the Users Selected Value. The DDL are in turn bound to their related table such as HIP, Dress, Chest, Trouser etc.bjectiveIf a female user logs in I just want to show them the (Hip Size) DDL and DressSizeDDL in the Edit item template of the formview and not the ChestSize DDL or TrouserSize DDL.At present the GetProfileByUserId returns all colums from the tableMy question is how do I do this and just show DDL which are relevant to the Female or Male Only. In some cases the usermay not have selected an item in the previous form so they could also be NULL.Am i on the right path by writing a Select Query that checks to see if the User is Male or Female by checking the Genre column in Profiles first.Do I also need 2 panels, 1 to hide Female DDLS and the other to Hide MaleDDLs subject to logged in user genre.
I have a repeater which does quite expensive processing when it is populated. It gets the info from a web service which is itself a federated search service and will take 15 to 20 seconds to return results.
In each repeater item/alternatingitem, i have 3 imagebuttons doing some actions (saving in session some ID's, updating some custom collections...) , the problem is when clicking on one of the buttons, the repeater will trigger the command and then databind again, which takes quite some time to process again..
I'm using a FormView but I can not put it in edit mode. The formview is connected to a sqldatasource whose query receives a parameter from other form (using a querystring).
I have a grid view with edit and save buttons when I click on edit it is letting me edit it and if I click on save it is lettingme save the data that I have edited.
The thing is after save is done it is showing the data in edit mode i.e <edit item template > mode I am still seeing the textboxes if I refresh the page then I am seeing it normally.
How can I stop the gridview to show edit mode after the save is done?
- I want to put multiple rows of a gridview into edit mode
- I have not found any easy method to accomplish this task. I found a way to programmatically put a gridview into edit mode, but in testing the code below it works for only 1 row at a time :
I have a page where I have a tab container and four tabs. the problem is on the first tab "manage quote request" I have a Gridview with the quote request general informatin listed and have a template field created with a link button to databind to the formview quote details. the porblem comes in when after I click on the select linkbutton. the Formview loads right. Then Whe I try to click on the edit linkbuttin in the form view I have to click it twice to change the mode to edit.
i am getting some errors with my asyncFileUpload. I have a page with <formview><updatePanel><AsyncFileUpload> when it is in ADD mode, the page works fine. Now I put it in EDIT MODE. I open the page and it works fine but as soon as i try to upload an image the nightmare starts. Debuggin I can arrive to these conclusions:
when I open the page for the first time, the sequence is: method load, AdFormView_ItemCreated (empty method), the Bind Process, AdFormView_DataBound.... Everything is ok. I click the button to upload and: AdFormView_ItemCreated, CONTROLSKIN(), Load, DataBound... but at this point controls are not recognized. The FormView has not been created.
I have created a FormView whose defaultmode = "insert". When loaded the FormView displays the InsertItemTemplate. At the top of the page is a DropDownList used to select Clients. I have added a list Item to the DropDownList with value = "0" and text= "Select Client" option. So the Page is in Insert Mode. SO FAR EVERYTHING IS AS EXPECTED.
When I select a Client from the DropDownList, the page remains in Insert Mode (Don't understand why? ) Could it be the default Mode setting? So I added the following vb code.
Protected Sub ddlSelectClient_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ddlSelectClient.SelectedIndexChanged
If ddlSelectClient.Text <> "(Select Client)" Then If FormView1.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Insert Then FormView1.ChangeMode(FormViewMode.Edit) End If End If End Sub
So after an existing Client is selected, the FormView Mode should be changed to EDIT. AND INDEED THE EDIT ITEM TEMPLATE IS DISPLAYED.
Ah but life is not so simple (after all this is a Microsoft Application). So I enter data in some fields and click the [Update] Button.
Then I get the following message:
FormView 'FormView1' must be in edit mode to update a record.
THe FormView displays the Edit Template, the Update and Cancel Buttons are displayed. All this should mean I am in edit mode.
Just call me FrankenSoft !@#$%^^& or is it MicroStein?
Oh by the way I'm using Linq to SQL data sourcess. Should I be? I'm having a lot of problems with the FormView using Linq.
I have a Gridview that handles double clicks. On a double click, the selected row goes into Edit mode, which means in my case that edit controls (textboxes, checkboxes and dropdown lists) become visible, and display controls (labels) become invisible. On Page_Load the values in edit controls get saved. Now my question is this: how can I get out of the edit mode if I don't want to save? Can I e.g. handle Escape key? BTW, I use C#.
Formview1 datasource ID is SQLTest. When I click New on the form and go into insertmode, is there an easy way to auto file textboxID to the value of the NextIDNumber field ( field 9) from SQLTest datasource?
