Getting An Error When Trying To Return A Date Field?
Feb 24, 2010
I have a date field (OrderTimeStamp) in Database which allow nulls.When I try to return this field in my LINQ Query I get this following error.Cannot Convert expression type System.Nullable<System.DateTime> to return type System.DateTime
I do not get this error when I try to return other fileds which also allow nulls. Like FirstName and LastName. Then Why I get error when I try to return a date field?
I am filtering dataview using my Date Column but the result is not proper because the Field value also stores time, so I want to convert this Date Field to only Date during Filter. How can I achieve this? Here is my code. And the actual value I am getting in the Dataset Field "CreationDate" is a DateTime field which is like
I have a page with a FormView on it. The page is strictly for adding records to a Table. I have the FormView bound to an EntityDataSource and everything works greate except for one thing.
I want to initialize a date field in the FormView to today's date. So, in my page_load event I have:
if (!Page.IsPostBack) { //Initialize SetupDate to today. TextBox setupdate = (TextBox)fvJob.FindControl("txtSetupDate"); setupdate.Text = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString(); }
The first time this page loads, the txtSetupDate field is initialized.
Although, and subsequent loads of the page doesn't initialize the Text Box. I step through the code in the debugger and I can see that the code is executig, but something (the FormView bind?) is "clearing" the Text Box.
I have a databound gridview that displays basic customer information. I have added a template field to the gridview, but I am having trouble with the coding for the RowDataBound event. I need to take the sum of all payments made by the customer in each row and store it in a variable for further calculation. Also, I need to take an integer value (say 30, representing 30 days) and add it to a date, and return a date.
In my database MYDB i have a table called MYTABLE and inside it I have a column called NAME. I want to only return the first 100 characters of the column NAME. (NAME can be up to 2000 characters).How can this be done in SQL as I want to set the first 100 characters to a ASP.NET label.
so a given Customer can have many orders in this table however I only want to return the last order (using OrderDate) for each customer. how do you do this? I assume that I need to group by customerID and then use max on the OrderDate but not sure of the exact syntax.
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?
I am having an issue trying to return the date of a selected date in a calendar popup back to a textbox. (I am using a master page).
On a page called ManagerDrivers.aspx, I have a textbox called TextBoxFollowUpDate and an image button called ImageButtonCalendar.
My VB Codebehind is:
[Code]....
This brings up a popup Calendar.aspx page in a popup. When a date is selected, I need it to post the selected date back to the TextBoxFollowUpdate on the ManageDrivers.aspx page. My code is as follows:
[Code]....
In doing some searching, I found that you need to reference the Content Place Holder of your master page which in my case is
ctl00_ContentPlaceHolderFormationShaw
Followed by the control which is my TextBoxFollowUpDate, but for some reason I am not getting the selected date back into my textbox.
Say I have a table Comments with these columns: Id, Comment, Category, CreatedDate, CommenterIdI want to get the top 5 categories from the Comments table (based on the count of each category in that table). How can I do this in linq, to return either List or IQueryable?
I must be doing something wrong, but this makes sense to me. I have a Listbox loaded with tons of items from a datasource. A user clicks one of these items it grabs the selectedindex (an integer) and stores it in a HiddenField (works fine).
Now when the page does a complete a refresh (after postback) I want the ListBox to go back to that selectedindex that is in the HiddenField. Problem is, it seems that after postback the HiddenField is empty? Then I thought about storing the value in an Integer variable in code, but that is simply coming up as a zero at all times.
Question 1: What is the best/simplest way to do this?
Question 2: How?
I am currently grabbing it on selectedindex change
I want to fetch date from a datetime field, when i select this field in database i get the result as 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss' i want the result to be like dd/mm/yyyy

I have 2 date fields - From and To Date.Both are using required field validators, regular expression validtors and compare validators. When the user enters an invalid date range, e.g. 02-29-2010 to 02-29-2010 (non-leap year), the comparevalidator throws an 'from cannot be greater than to date range' error.Why am I seeing this error when From is not > To.Here's the code snippet
In the below code when I remove the optional end date and click save it should just take the value as blank, but it doesn't
