How To Specify A Default Value For A Field In A .NET Details View Insert Mode
Jul 7, 2010
.NET newbie. I know there has to be a way to do this.I have a details view with it's default mode set to Insert. This is to be used as a form for users to enter records into a database. For two of the fields, I want to pre-populate the field with information. Specifically, I have a vb script with a few functions to query Active Directory to return the user's name based upon their user id. This script works fine.I call the functions for the user name like this:
<InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtUserID" runat="server" Text='<%#CurrentUID() %>'></asp:TextBox>
</InsertItemTemplate>
<InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtUserName" runat="server" Text='<%# GetUserName(CurrentUID()) %>'></asp:TextBox>
</InsertItemTemplate>
When the page loads, this populates the text boxes with the user id and the user name.But when the form is submitted, the values in the text boxes are not inserted in to the database.How can I set default values for the fields when the values come from functions?

I am using Visual studio 2010 express and I have a details view databinded to an sql database table. When I use the Insert option on the view it causes an error due to it trying to insert a null into the primary key field. If the Insert function does not create a new primary key entry how is it created?

So question from a Newbie !So I have a web page with a Details View component for Inserting data into a table.One of the fields is a date/time which I want to be now().SO I guess there are 2 ways of doing it - either I populate the date/time field in the form with a variable that represent now() and make it Read Only so the user can't change it or I somehow make a hidden variable (ie not displayed in the form) that writes a date/time of now() into the database whenever an INSERT takes place.What is the best way and how do I do either of them ? How do I make one of the fields in the INSERT form of the Details View a preset variable ?

How do I set the value of a field in a detailsview to the selectedvalue of a gridview on the same page? I am also trying to set today date as value of another field in the detailsview as well as UserID. I wrote the following codebehind for the date setting:
TextBox tb = (TextBox)DetailsView2.FindControl("TextBoxCreDate");
tb.Text=System.DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();
TextBoxCreDate is a template field in my DetailsView.
Unfortunately, I get a Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Error message.

For ASP.NET, I'm using a DetailsView for insert and edit of a record. For edit mode I don't want to display the primary key field because it should not be changed. For insert mode, I want to display the primary key field because it doesn't exist and the user can specify it via a DropDownList that insures they will pick an unique value. A TemplateField is used in the DetailsView markup for the primary key field (hence the DropDownList for insert mode).
My problem is that I cannot get the primary key field to not display for edit mode and to display for insert mode. In the markup I have:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="name" InsertVisible="True" Visible="True">
<InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddl2NonMembers" runat="server"
Width="155px"
Sourceless="sqlNonMembers"
DataTextField="name"
DataValueField="id_adm"
SelectedValue='<%# Bind("member_grp") %>'>
</asp:DropDownList>
</InsertItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
With the TemplateField Visible="True", the HeaderText="name" always displays which I don't want for edit mode. With the TemplateField Visible="False", the field never displays which I don't want for insert mode.How can I achieve the display behavior I want for insert verses edit mode. I'm fine with changing some property programmatically rather than relying an a pure markup approach,

I have a template field in datagrid. The field shows in insert mode. I do not want to show it because it is a thumbnail to an attachment. The regular bound fields have a setting "Insert Visible" which could be set to false - that is supposed to hide them in insert mode. The template field has no such thing. I have even tried to put Insert Visible = False in to the source but to no avail.
My definition of the template field looks like this:

I am new to .NET and MVC, so this is most likely a simple question: How can I have a default value appear for an Html.TextBox or TextArea field, for example if the code is currently - <%=Html.TextBox("ApplyToFax", Model.Competition.ApplyToFax, New With {.class = "regular", .maxlength = "50"})%>. I am looking to have a default fax number appear in the box when the page loads, for example (999) 999-9999.

I'm thinking of using a modal pop up control that would have a details view in it. I currently have a details view that uses CSS Friendly control adapters with the CssSelectorClass attribute. Can I use the CSS friendly CssSelectorClass property with a details view in the modal pop up and style it as I'm currently doing with my Details View?

I'm using a formview in Insert mode with an AccessDataSource. I want to switch to readonly mode upon insertion to let the user confirm the input worked, then give them the option to insert a new record. If I set the DefaultMode to Insert, then after the first record is inserted, I get a new blank insertion form (no confirmation). If I set the DefaultMode to ReadOnly, after insertion, I get a blank form (presumably because I am not on the record just inserted).
How do I get the just inserted record to display? If I need to set the ID of the formview to the just inserted record OnInserted, how do I get that given I'm using an AccessDataSource?

This is in VS 2008. If I right-click in my code-behind page, I get a very useful "View Designer" option, which is great because it saves having to find the .aspx page in the row of document tabs:Problem is, it always opens in Design Mode, not Source Mode, even though in my options, under HTML Designer, I have "Start pages in" set to "Source View" (though I know that usually applies to double-clicking the file in the project explorer):So is there a way of getting the context menu "View Designer" to always open in Source View?Second question: Is there an option/plug-in/hack to change the way VS manages tabs? Specifically, my gripe is it opens2 tabs for the same page (one for aspx and one for aspx.cs), adding to the mess of tabs, which is crazy. Instead of, say, using the buttons at the bottom... is this possible (a mockup):That would be handy. But View Design context menu opening in Source view would be better, if possible.

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.

I'm very new on VWD, but I got the hang of it for the past 2 weeks(thank you for all the videos posted here in ASP.NET),but I'm really weak on the coding part(vb & c#),except for all the sample shown on the tutorials. Anyways, I have a simple project that
does insert, update & delete to SQL express using the details view. But to complete my project, I need to add a button that will create an event to restore the very last record inserted in SQL and display it back into the details view for minor modification
and nserted again as the newest record with the mod. I'm doing this so user, doesn't need to re-key-in redundant information, like names, original date & time etc, and just make modification on the description of the last record.....

On my DetailsView for inserting, I have a field "manager code". When the user types in the code, I want another field "manager name" to be populated based on a lookup table in the database. I have done this on a FormView using code behind and "ontextchanged". How can I do this in DetailsView?

I have a DetailsView for inserting values and currently the columns are center aligned. What I want is to have my "label" right aligned and my "text box/dropdown box" left aligned.
Something like:
Name: _______________
Address: __________________________
Phone: __________
Insert Cancel
If I change the alignment to left for both, the Insert and Cancel buttons on the bottom of the control also shift to the left, and I'd like them to stay centered.

I have on a page a gridview that can be filtered with one text box. I set up the gridview to show select and wanted to then connect a details view so that when you selected a row the entire details would show up. When I run it I get this error. Data keys must be specified on GridView 'GridView1' before the selected data keys can be retrieved. Use the DataKeyNames property to specify data keys.

I'm trying to get a record to show up in a details view as part of a Master Details. I was able to get this to work by setting the visibility to true for the Details View in the Page Load event. I now want the details view to show up when the Select button is clicked in the GridView's template field using the onClick event for the button. I don't seem to be assigning the correct properties to get this to work though. what property I should use with this? I know I have to get it from the GridView and assign it to the details but haven't gotten it to work. this is the GridView:

I have a form with many form fields and controls, with some offering an "other" if a value does not meet the needs for the user. How can I bind the sql insert so that it will take the ddl selection along with the txt field selection for the "other" value? Even if the txt field is empty it should not be a big deal since the ddl would provide something other than null. Since the column in the db does not allow nulls. I'm using asp.net (vb) 3.5 sp1
