Returning Single - Row Queries Using DataAdapter - DataTable And DataRow
Feb 10, 2011
I'm fairly new to ASP.NET and am working through a tutorial that demonstrates the use of DataAdapter, DataTable, and DataRow classes. The tutorial focuses on binding returned DataTables to GridView objects - I'm having trouble understanding what to do to extract one row for display. I've found I can do the following:
ProductsTableAdapter productsAdapter = new ProductsTableAdapter();
Northwind.ProductsTable productsTable = productsAdapter.GetSingleByProductID(searchID)
Northwind.ProductsRow productRow = (Northwind.ProductsRow)productsTable.Rows[0];
A ProductsTable should be able to return its own ProductRows w/o resorting to a cast, no? Can't find how to do it otherwise. I'm thinking how to go about creating a form where the user will only ever be working on one record at a time. Wouldn't it make sense for the DAL to return a ProductsRow instead of a ProductsTable?

I have a method like
public DataRow
GetItem(ENTITY_TYPE
EntityType, long EntityID)
This fetches a row and returns it. Pretty simple.
However I can't test in the method to see if the row was fetched, as the method has to end with:
return ds.Tables[0].Rows[0];
If the row wasn't fetched, this errors as there is no row at position 0.
I can't do this:
DataRow dr;
if (ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count
== 1)
{
dr =
ds.Tables[0].Rows[0];
}
return dr;
.. because then I get an error that I can't return an uninitialised variable (dr).
I can't stipulate what the columns are and return a "blank" DataRow as far as I can see, because it's dynamic so I don't know what the columns will be. There doesn't seem to be a way to instantiate the DataRow return var except by assigning, er, a DataRow. Which I may not have.
I don't really want to switch to using the ItemArray and pass arrays about, I'd rather just pass the DataRow object as this is in a loop which might process a lot of rows.

Is there a way to cap the number of records returned when an .Include() method is called on an ObjectQuery<>? Basically, if one of my entities is in a one-to-many relationship, such as a Band entity to a list of Fan entities (where a band can have any number of fans), how can I limit the number of fans returned?
In the example: var band = ctx.Bands.Include("Fans").SingleOrDefault(b => b.BandId == someBandId);
If I use the Include, it will return all fans. How can I query that Fans navigation property to return only a subset or max?

I am having trouble with queries because they are not returning the data needed, and I am having trouble figuring out why because I only am testing with 2 records.First I want a query to return all records for one customer as follows:
[Code]....
There are two records with the customerID of 1, but it only returns one,next I try to return only one record, the AccountPrimary or customer_contacts.IsPrimary, but when I add " AND customer_contacts.IsPrimary = 'True' "at the end of my query it then returns both records, but only one IsPrimary = True and the Other = False. Is it backwards? I also tried another method and it returned 30 of the same record and I only have 2

I have a DataTable that's populated with Data. I'm looping through it and checking to see what the contents of the first cell of the first column are. If they have the same value on the current iteration as the previous, I want to insert a blank row into my DataTable. The problem is that the new row is being added to the end of the DataTable instead of between the two rows. How can I get it not to append the row to the end. This is what I'm doing:

I have a dataset that has around 5 rows. I also have another Datarow() array that has an additional 3 rows which I would want to add to the dataset. The structure of both the Dataset Rows and the Datarow arrays are the same.
Do I have to perform a loop on the datatrow arrays and add them one by one? or is there a better way of adding them in one go ?

I want to delete the rows present in the DataTable by using LINQ (with out looping)
The deleted rows will be come from a LINQ as below
IEnumerable<DataRow> MobileQuery = (from d in dtBillDetail.AsEnumerable()
where (String.Compare(d.Field<string>("Destination"), "MOBILE", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase) == 0) select d );
The DataRows present in the "MobileQuery" should be deleted in the DataTable "dtBillDetail"

I want to add another sql query which is using two tables to fetch the data and than i want to display it in a dropdownlist after fetching data from database. How should i proceed?? Should i create a totally new connection? I tried many different ways like, creating new connection and new reader and entire try and catch block i coded again but on running the website i t was taking very long to load the contents. What i did i modified only this portion(below code) and used the entire try catch again but it dint work.
while (MyReader1.Read())
{
String f = MyReader1["ret"].ToString();
DropDownList1.Items.Add(f);
}

I have a drop down with several option. I would like that if a certain item is select then a certain query will run. I read a post that
azamsharp on 12/23/03 .In that post he suggested to do:
string myProcedure = DropDownList.SelectedItem.value.ToString();
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("myProcedure",myConnection);
while reading through the post it seems that this wasn't a great idea.

I have created alot of stored procedures in my application that return the result of a query in a datatable object. I never use a dataset. Why would I ever use a dataset over simply returning the result of a query as a datatable object?

I have read a lot of posts describing why it isn't good practice to return heavy objects like DataTable/DataSet to the client from WCF. However, there doesn't seem to be much discussion about the alternatives (or maybe I'm not looking in the right forums).
My problem is this: I've tried to convert my DataReader/DataTable into a List<List<string>>, where List<string> represents the data in each row, but get an error at the point when the data is being sent to the client. A simple List<T> or a one-dimensional array gets returned without any problems. But whenever I try to return a collection of collections, there seems to be an issue. I don't know until runtime what my DataReader would look like as different stored procs are called based on user selection from a web form.
What am I missing here. Is WCF not able to handle collection of collections (I know that multi-dimensional arrays are not supported)?

Would it be better in terms of payload, if I return a datatable as a List<DataRow> from a WCF method? I have WsHtppBinding for my WCF. I am expecting the datatable to contain 5,000 to 10,000 records.
Also, how can I test the difference in payload sizes when returning a DataTable Vs List<DataRow>?

I need to return datatable to dataset in asp.net application. I have a method which has a return value as datatable.
However I need to send 2-3 datatable instead of one. I dont know how to join/add two datatable and what could be the return type?

I'm returning one table. My understanding is that a DataSet can be made of more than one DataTable. I also understand that I can use either of these to return my one table.
Is it better to use the DataTable when I have one table to return instead of a DataSet? Is there any advantage of not using the DataSet in a situation like this? Is there a disadvantage to using the DataSet when only one table is being returned? Does this even matter?

I have a simple web method written in the code-behind (not a separate asmx) of a test aspx page.
All it does is return a DataTable(or DataSet) both are failing, gives a blank 500 error saying "There was an error processing the request"
If I switch the return variable type to String, it works fine
I think my issue has to do with the version of the System.Web.Extensions, is that the assembly that actually contains the JSON communication implementation?
I've read all kinds of tutorials about how it should be possible to return the DataTable to javascript and then read the properties with javascript syntax.
For some reason it isn't working for me.
My web extensions is imported through my web.config with the following version
<add
assembly="System.Web.Extensions,
Version=1.0.61025.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35"/>

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.
