View 2 RepliesWe know that using something like Bind("CustomerName") can be used in the Text property of a label control inside a gridview, where CustomerName is a property of the object whose collection is bound to the gridview. If that property is of a complex type (object of another class), how do we use a property of that inline object as a binding for the gridview column?

[Code]....
The user control has public properties named accordingly and the page has protected properties accordingly which I've verified have the desired values.
For some reason the values are always empty strings or 0s in the usercontrol, no matter what the page property is.
i tried reading all the articles and tried the solutions as well did not work for me.
One of the solutions i tried
Binding Generic List Array to GridView.

I am binding a table to a gridview in asp.net as such
grdIssues.DataSource = mdtIssues;
grdIssues.DataBind();
The problem is I cannot then control the column width, asp.net seems to decided on it's own what width each column should be. Methods such as
grdIssues.Columns[0].ItemStyle.Width = 100;
grdIssues.Columns[1].ItemStyle.Width = 100;
don't work because the columns are created dynamically. I cannot believe there isn't a way to do this short of manually creating each column and filling each row.
My message application uses a gridview to display user messages. One colunm determines the priority of the message (high, low or no priority assigned) if the message row is empty put nothing in the row else put a ! in the row (to show high priority). Question is don't I need to bind that colunm and row?
'<%#Bind("something")%>' Image="!" />
After i retrieved a set of datatable from database, i need to edit the rows value before binding to the gridview. for example, a set of datatable is retrived from database.
eg: [userid], [userEmail] --> 1 , james@hotmail.com
i would like to change "james@hotmail.com" to "james" then bind it to gridview. Every rows of [userEmail] will be separated with the mail extension (@hotmail.com) ... how should i do..?
I know that you can use exclamation sign to bind array of simple types (like string) to GridView like this
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField HeaderText="Array Field" DataField="!" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
But this doesn't seem to be the case with DataNavigateUrlFields
<asp:HyperLinkField DataNavigateUrlFields="!" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="RoleInformation.aspx?role={0}" Text="Manage users" />
and I get following error:A field or property with the name '!' was not found on the selected data source.
I have a table with the following structure:
Attribute
-------------
AttributeId
WeekNo
DayNo
Attribute1
Attribute2
Attribute3
Attribute4
Attribute5
........ likewise.
I want to display these data in a gridview in the following manner
Sunday Monday Tuesday ............ (till Saturday) - should be gridview columns, I can retrieve this using dayno
Attribute 1
Attribute 2
Attribute 3
Attribute 4
like wise attributes should be taken in to rows.Is this possible in a gridview, if so how can I do that?
I have a gridview bound to a SQL Select statement. I want the binding of one of the columns to depend on one of the values in the database record. For example, say I have a SQL table containing FirstName, LastName, ShowFirstName.
I want a the Name column in my Gridview to be bound to FirstName if ShowFirstName is 1, and bound to LastName if ShowFirst Name is 0.
how to bind data in an ItemTemplate column in my Gridview.
I have created an ObjectDatasource on my page bound to my Gridview using a Dataset from my linked SQL tables (PKs, FKs,etc...).
I am showing all my USERS table data in my Gridview but there are some columns which are ID's being displayed such as MembershipID, UserTypeID. These ID's are my foreign keys to other SQL tables.
I have easily been able to go into my EditTemplate for these columns, attach a new ObjectDataSource as a Lookup table, add a new DropDownList in place of the TextBox and then set Two-way binding so that the MembershipName & UserTypeName's are displayed for editing.
However, I cannot seem to work out how to do this Binding to the other ObjectDataSources in the ItemTemplate Label. Again i can make it work witha DDL, but i don't want any selections when just displaying the data in the Grid. I simply want the name to be shown in a label, but cannot work out the binding lookup?
I have a manual binding to a grid view. After that, I found out the Grid_View.Columns.Count still give me 0.
I tried to set this:
AutoGenerateColumns="False"
After I set this value, the gridview become empty. Wonder if the False causing the column count to be 0.

I have a web page with an object data source that is connect to an object access layer which retrirevs an Id, Name_En and Name_Local from some table, the object data source is connected to a GirdView, In the girdview i have a template control with a label inside it, i want to change the binding expression for the label depending on the current states of localization so for example if the page is arabic the label should bind to "Name_Local", if it's english then it should bind to "Name_En"
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to bind a nullable bit column, which at the moment is mostly null, but I need to somehow convert the null to a 'false' on runtime because it doesn't bind to a checkbox if it's null. But, I am currently unable to change the default value and update all records accordingly - is there a way to do this in runtime?

I have a GridView, in which the width of each column is dynamic and changes depending on the dataset. I need to get the width of each column for use in my PDF exporter, but the column/cells width is always '0', presumably because I haven't set the width property.
Is there a way around this?
I have a State class defined like this:
Public Class State
Public Property StateId As Integer
Public Property Name As Dictionary(Of Integer, String)
End Class
Name(x) contains the state name in different languages. I get a collection of State from the method StateManager.GetAllStates() and I want to bind this collection to a DropDownList. The problem is that I can't find how to set the DataTextField property to let's say stateList.Name(1) which is the english name of my state.
Dim stateList As StateCollection = StateManager.GetAllStates()
Me.DataSource = stateList
Me.DataValueField = "StateId"
Me.DataTextField = "Name(1).Value" <-- Problem here
Me.DataBind()
For the life of me I cannot bind the Checked property of a CheckBox control within a TemplateField (declaritively).
I have tried:
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="deactivated" runat="server" checked="<%#Eval("Deactivated")%>"></asp:CheckBox>
</ItemTemplate>
<asp:TemplateField>
And
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="deactivated" runat="server" checked="<%#Eval(Container.DataItem, "Deactivated")%>"></asp:CheckBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</asp:TemplateField>
I keep seeing a warning stating: Cannot create an object of type 'System.Boolean' from it's string representation' 'for the 'Checked' property.
So here is the problem , Is it possible to get the "SelectedItem.Text" of a binded dropdownlist? because everytime I'm getting null Even though I'm having

I'll use Customer and Addresses as an example rather than explain my real objects. Say I have a repeater bound to a collection of Customers and one of the properties of Customer is an array of addresses. How do I bind to the addresses property? I don't even need to display this information I just want to use it in the Repeaters ItemDataBound event. So I tried to bind a hiddenField to the addresses property but all I get for every customer in the hiddenfields value is an empty array of addresses.
View 1 RepliesI have an ASCX that inherits from a WebControl that has a 'CustomConfiguration' property of type CollectionConfigurationItem. This configuration gets set elsewhere in the code, so by the time it gets to the ASCX it is set up to how I wish to use the data. At this point I'd like to render out another control using this configuration, like so:
<modules:DataModule runat="server" CustomConfiguration="<%# Model.CategoryListConfiguration %>" />
However, breaking into DataModule always results in 'CustomConfiguration' being null, which is the default value for the property. I've tried adding a Bindable attribute to the property but to no avail, and when I set an EventHandler for the DataBinding event on the DataModule it doesn't even get called.
How can I set this custom-class-typed property from the markup or, failing that what's the second-best method of getting this to work?
I've got a SQL Server database with a table in it, which lists the file names of images. It's my intention to assign the ImageUrl of an Image control on the page, from the data in the table. I've placed a SQLDataSource control on the page, and then tried putting a FormView control there, and an Image control within that. But I don't see how I can assign the value to the ImageUrl property via data binding.
