Using Select Distinct On An Already Created DataTable Object?
Nov 16, 2010
I have an already created DataTable object which i am using for my girdview (asp.net) i also need to bind a column of that object to a DropDownList. The datatable has the correct details in the column but the column contains more that 1 of the same name in the column - hence I would love to just do some kind of SELECT DISTINCT on the datatable and copy it to a new datatable for use with binding the dropdown.
This would allow me to save resources by making another trip to the database.
Here is an example, the current datatable has a column called items and in this column has the following entries
1
1
1
1
5
5
6
And of course i need only unique items for binding to my dropdown, hence i need the following data
1
5
6
Of course i don't want to change the original datatable object but rather make a copy of it will the new details.

I would like to select a distinct query based on three fields and display the rest of the fields. For example,
I have firstname, lastname, address, city, state and zip, but I only want to use the distinct on these fields first and last name. However when i use the distinct function I get a distinct on all the selected rows. I just want to distinct firstname and lastname and display the other fields. for example,
Mary Smith New York
Mary Smithy New York
Mary Smith Maine
I would like the result to be:
Mary Smith New York
Mary Smithy New York
I don't care about Mary Smith Maine, because i am only using the distinct for "Mary Smith" firstname and last name and showing the city.

I am using C# + VSTS 2008 + .Net + ASP.Net + IIS 7.0 + ADO.Net + SQL Server 2008. I have a ADO.Net datatable object, and I want to filter out duplicate/similar records (in my specific rule to judge whether records are duplicate/similar -- if record/row has the same value for a string column, I will treat them as duplicate/similar records), and only keep one of such duplicate/similar records.
The output needs to be a datatable, may output the same datatable object if filter operation could be operated on the same datatable object.
What is the most efficient solution?

I have a datatable which has been dynamically generated from FoxPro tables using a UNION Select statement. e.g.
SELECT * FROM x UNION SELECT * FROM y UNION SELECT * FROM Z ORDER By v_alue1
This produces a datatable with about 100 rows, each containing many fields, one of which is c_olor. From this datatable, I would like to select the distinct colors and then output in a dropdown.
I have a public class Color which just has one property which I can then use as the DataTextField and DataValueField for the dropdownlist
[code]...
However this never results in the distinct colors.
I have searched and searched for what I am looking for, and this seems to be one of the methods to produce a distinct set of results, but this and the others do not work.
My reasoning behind getting the colors this way, is that I need to get various other distinct values from the same UNION SELECT datasource, so would just do one DB call, cache the results, and then just used this cached datasource to retrieve all my distinct values.

Two models:

Each ContentVersion is linked to Content through the ContentID.
I want to select all "Content" where UserID = X, then for each selected "Content" I want the latest "ContentVersion".
The return type should be of type <IQueryable>ContentVersion.

This is something I can easily do in SQL, but I'm pretty new to LINQ and haven't been able to find an answer online.
I need a LINQ query that returns two values; the first a distinct value and the second the count of the first value. This is filtered by a parameter. Here is my table:

I'm using asp.net login on a SQL Database.
I have 12 users in my User tabel - one of the user I don't want to have in my select (the user is an admin).
I tried this:
[Code]....
I also tried:
WHERE (dbo.aspnet_Roles.RoleName <> 'Administrators')
Both time it took the user into the table....
If I instead try this
WHERE (dbo.aspnet_Roles.RoleName = 'Administrators')
I get only one row (as expected).
What is wrong with the above sql statement - why can't I get 11 users and not them all (12 users)?

I'm creating a static helper class for web services I'm writing. I'm tapping into the API of Telligent and therefore creating these Telligent "service" objects that allow me to do things with the platform. For example, I'm creating a MembershipSerice object in my helper class so I can do membership stuff with the same object. In my helper class I have a property with a getter that creates a new one of these objects:
private static MembershipService _MembershipService {
get return new MembershipService(path, usr, pwd);

Dim dt As New DataTable Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(s, c)
c.Open()
if Not IsNothing(da) Then
da.Fill(dt)
[code]...
When I call da.fill I am inserting all records from my query. I was then hoping to filter them to display only those where the GroupingID is equal to 0. When I run the above code. I am presented with all the data, the filter did not work. Please can you tell me how to get this working correctly.

I have a dropdownlist attached to a cell when edit is selected. I am using the following code to populate the drop down list with the value that is on the row.
dlBU.Items.FindByValue((e.Row.FindControl("lblBU") as Label).Text).Selected = true;
This works famously when I have a value in the cell. It fails when the cell has not yet been populated. Is there an if then clause that if the value of e.Row.findcontrol("lblBU") is null no default value?

I have a dataset generated from xml from a web service.Data needs to be sorted by date order descending, I cannot get the web service changed so thought I'd try:
Code:
repeater1.DataSource = dsCombinedBlock.Tables(2).Select("Status < 3 and status <> 99", "DateReceived desc")
However the dates are treated as a string so the results look like
28/06/2011
27/06/2011
27/06/2011
02/06/2011
01/07/2011
How do I get the proper ordering applied.
