Forms Data Controls :: Connecting A DropDownList To A DataSource?

Jul 13, 2010

I have a problem with connecting a DropDownList to a DataSource.

The scenario: When I add am item to the database (I do this using a GridView/ObjectDataSource / SPROC) I want to update a DropDownList that lists this items as well.This DropDownList is linked with another ObjectDataSource. Now, I listen to the RowCommand event of the GridView and in a certain case I refresh the DataSource of the DrpoDownList and do a DataBind to the DropDownList afterwards.

The strange thing is, that when I take a look at the DropDownList's Items-Collection during the Page's OnPreRender event handling, the items collection contains the new entry but the new entry is not rendered, i.e. when I take a look at the rendered HTML the <option></option> entry for the new value is missing.

After another postback to the page the entry appears in the DropDownList?

DataSource Controls :: What Is Better: Connecting To DB With One Stored Procedure To Get Two Table At Once OR Connecting...

May 20, 2010

While working with LINQ to ENTITIES I see that there is only a way to use stored procedure that is returning one entity only, or a view that is a join of two entities.

But what if I need in ASPX page to get two tables that there is NO connection between them, no join can be done between them at all.

I have one Stored Procedure that return the two tables, but entities don't support this right now.

I can split them to two Stored Procedure and call each of them separately.

DataSource Controls :: Website Not Connecting To Database

Mar 8, 2010

Could not establish a connection to the database. If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider. I have set up a db locally which mimics the production DB, THe production db and website has no has no issues.

THis used to work till i had hard disk failure and had to reinstall all software and do the db from scratch. Used the table scripts and ran the aspnet_regsql. I am using sql server express 2008 asp.net 3.5 I am using custom provider for Roles and custom membership provider for Memberships. Pretty sure the problem is in the db permissions, though I have set up Users in the Security of the DB.

Forms Data Controls :: Reload Datasource And Dropdownlist?

Jun 10, 2010

i think i can't see the forrest for the trees.......there HAS to be a simple way to do this. so i created a web page and on that page i have two dropdown lists. the first is STATE and the second is COUNTY. the STATE is a static list. but the COUNTY is generated whenever the STATE changes. now....when i set up the COUNTY dropdown list, it prompted me for a datasource. i have a store procedure which takes the 2-letter STATE code and returns all the counties for that state. so i set up the datasource for the COUNTY drop down list by just following the prompts from visual studio. i gave it a default state of Alabama (AL). and all is fine. so here's my question: how can i reload the datasource and subsequently the COUNTY dropdown list? i see no way to access the datasource that the environment generated for me.

well.....i thought.......i'll just do it the old fashioned way and set up a command.......connectionstring.......and sql statement and load the results into a datareader (do i REALLY have to do all that?)

but it still doesn't work. what's the simplest way for me to just re-fire my stored procedure and pass it the STATE parameter and reload the datasource and dropdown list?

Forms Data Controls :: How To Use A DropDownList With A DataSource Returning A Datatable

Jun 10, 2010

I am trying to use a datasource with a dropdownlist. Eventually, my data source method to call a stored procedure and load the datatable is returns, but for now, I am just creating the datatable manually. I need each item to have two attributes, the text, whixh the user will see in the DDL, and the value that the program will retrieve from and store back to the file.

It is partly working in that the DDL has 3 items, however the text for each item reads "System.Data.DataRowView"

I have to be close, but I can't figure out what I am doing wrong.

Forms Data Controls :: Separate DataSource For DropDownList In DataGridView?

Sep 8, 2010

I am using a DataGridView and have a master table which contains values which different tables related to the master data, i.e. StatusID =1 in master table = TrailerStatus (1, 2, 3, 4 and their descriptions) are in a related table. I am able to retrieve the values from Table B 1 = Empty, 2 = Rejected, 3 = Onsite, etc. However, I don't know how to relate the master table StatusID = 1 to default my dropdown list from the relational table 1, 2, 3, 4.

I have been fighting with this for quite some time and just have not found a solid example of how to do this. I actually have two dropdownlists which will need to be correctly wired in order for my application to work.

This will also be an editable dataGridView but I will tackle that challenge once I get this first hair plucked from my butt.

There is some code-behind which doesn't work at all pertaining to a ;; gvSCACDetail_RowDataBound ;;

but I dont' think I can even get the code to compoile when this is not commented out.

Here are some of the details:

<td style="width: 700px; height: 20px">
<asp:GridView ID="gvSCACDetail" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" AutoGenerateEditButton="True" DataKeyNames="trailerid,locationid,scacid,statusid,capacityid" AutoGenerateDeleteButton="True" DataSourceID="SCACDetailView" Visible="False" Width="698px">
