How To Convert SQL Server Timestamp Object To String In C#
Dec 9, 2010
I have a column (data type timestamp) in SQL Server 2008.Now I want to show this timestamp value in ASP.Net C# app as string. Is there any way to do that?I tried it using regular data fetching in ASP.Net but it produced System.byte[] as output rather than actual value. In SQL Server Management Studio values are represented as 0x000000000000B3C0
on VWD 2005 this code works fine, but on 2008 it says I haven't created an instance of the object. I want to convert the object connString (a connection string) into a string.
'This acceses the virtual directory web.config file for connection strings 'We have to convert the object to a connection string Dim rootWebConfig As System.Configuration.Configuration rootWebConfig = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("/VirtualDirec") Dim connString As System.Configuration.ConnectionStringSettings connString = rootWebConfig.ConnectionStrings.ConnectionStrings("ConnectString1") Dim strConnString As String = connString.ToString().......
Dim testdate As String = "29/10/2010" testdate = Convert.ToDateTime(testdate.ToString) Response.Write(testdate) expecting "29/10/2010 00:00:00" what I get is "29/10/2010"
I was following a MSDN walkthrough [URL] which is a very simple ASP.NET example with Visual Studio 2010:
· I have a simple database table with a timestamp column;
· I created a "Linq to SQL Class", and drag the table from Server Explorer onto it;
· I dragged a LinqDataSource onto the web page and pointed it to the dbml;
· I dragged a DetailsView onto the web page using the LinqDataSource.
· I enabled editing on the data source.
When I run, the time stamp column is also displayed on the DetailsView as something like "AAAAAAAAB9Y=". Then, when I change the "EmployeeName" and update, I got following exception: Failed to set one or more properties on type person. Cannot convert value of parameter 'tstamp' from 'System.String' to 'System.Data.Linq.Binary'. I was strictly following the MSDN walkthrough. I tried multiple times, I even installed Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Beta. But it consistently through this exception. Can someone shed some light on this? Not a encouraging start form someone thinking to learn the lastest Microsoft stuff!

I use the JavaScriptSerializer class of ASP.net to serialize my object and return it to the client side. How can I deserialize the string using JavaScript?
I have a column in my table that is named 'startDateTime' and 'endDateTime'. I need to select all the rows where current time stamp is in between the startdatetime and enddatetime. Note that the datatype is smalldatetime. How to do this?
I am using SQLCMD to execute a script and then output the results to a csv file. Is it possible to name the output file with a timestamp each interval that it is executed (such as every 30 minutes that the command is executed to timestamp like "output 10/25/10 830.csv"?
I've scenario where I want to insert data into database without post back. there are around 12 to 13 fields which i need to insert. I'm passing DTO from the client side which is actually Json object. Now the problem which i'm facing is how to convert that Json object which i got in webservice to the "class" (in my case class name is User) object.
[Code]....
In the above case AddNewUser method takes the object of User class. But i'm getting casting error. So how do I convert Json object to the "User" class object?
Is there an easy way to populate my C# Object with the JSON object passed via AJAX?
//This is the JSON Object passed to C# WEBMETHOD from the page using JSON.stringify {"user":{"name":"asdf","teamname":"b","email":"c","players":["1","2"]}} //C# WebMetod That receives the JSON Object [WebMethod] public static void SaveTeam(Object user) { } //C# Class that represents the object structure of JSON Object passed in to the WebMethod public class User { public string name { get; set; } public string teamname { get; set; } public string email { get; set; } public Array players { get; set; } }
I have project in development where string operations like "Hi " + variable + ", welcome to Project" are used at many places (given example is very minor one).
One of the requirement is to convert it to string.format style.
It is very long and tedious job, where I would not like to break earlier working code due to any human error might happen while converting it.
I would like to if any Macro or VS command which I can create to handle it. Just like we mark block of code and do Extract function in Re-factor options.
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %> <script runat="server" > Dim connStr As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("cc").ConnectionString.ToString dim db As New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connStr)
why this error
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I have a string I need to convert back to a date. I can call .ToString("yyyyMMdd") and get the string i want. My question is how can I convert that back into a date? I'm trying something like the following with no luck.
DateTime d; var formatInfo = new DateTimeFormatInfo {ShortDatePattern = "yyyyMMdd"}; if (DateTime.TryParse(details.DetectionTime.Date, formatInfo, DateTimeStyles.None, out d)) { lit.Text = d.ToShortTimeString(); //would like 07/30/2010 as the text }
I've never used DateTimeFormatInfo before if that isn't obvious. Can someone point me in the right direction. I know I could probably use substring and create a new DateTime(y, m, d) etc... I'm just wondering since c# interpreted .ToString() correctly, if it can't derive a date from the very same string it output.
public class Package { public Package() { name = ""; type = new List<Dictionary<string, string>>(); } public string name { get; set; } public List<Dictionary<string, string>> type { get; set; } } [code]...
How can I do this using XmlDocument?I want readability over performance, and I find XmlReader to be hard to read b/c you have to keep checking the node type.
