VS 2008 How To Handle Null Datetime Values Properly
Oct 25, 2010
I have a class with properties for stuff like FileNumber, OpenedDate, ClosedDate etc.When I Initialise the class I set the datetime variables to Date.MinValue.Then when I populate my textboxes I check if the value of the date variables are Date.Minvalue and I set the textbox text to an empty string.
Code:
If(File.OpenedDate = Date.MinValue, String.Empty, File.OpenedDate.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd"))
However whe I try to save the data to my sql server db I get a datetime out of range error. What is the correct way to handle these null values in my date columns?

I get a recordset returned from DB and try to load it. However sometimes field "LastRun" may be empty (NULL). when i have this it compiles fine but errors out when value is null m_LastRun = Convert.ToDateTime(r["LastRun"]); when I take out Convert.ToDateTime it doesn't even compile.

I've got a detailsview control on a page. The table that it interacts with has a DateTime column in it. This column is nullable, and a lot of the records have null for that value. In the EditItemTemplate I've got a calendar control. When I try to put the DetailsView into edit mode, I get the following error message:
System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code
Message=Specified cast is not valid.
Source=App_Web_srpmlyjd
StackTrace:
at ASP.entries_aspx.__DataBinding__control44(Object sender, EventArgs e) in c:inetpubwwwrootMediaLibraryEntries.aspx:line 103
at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBind(Boolean raiseOnDataBinding)
at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBindChildren()
I am convinced that the problem is the null values in the DateTime column of the table. I've done some web searches on this, and some have suggested placing some dummy values into that column, but that seems more like a kludge, rather than a solution. How do I keep nulls in the table, and yet not have that preceeding error come up when a user tries to edit the selected record?

I am very new to ASP .NET and am getting above error when trying to insert a new record into a SQL database. I have turned on Option Explicit On so the default date of 01/01/1900 does not get assigned to this field automatically. Since most of the people in the database will not have a date of death, I need to have "blank" deathDate. When I run the stored procedure within SQL and choose pass null value, the Insert Procedure works fine. When I attach to Web Form, however, I get String was not recognized as a valid DateTime error. How can I set it so Null values are accepted into this date field.

I have a problem:
I've created usual Controller and View(Edit view) for editing my Entity (EntityFramework)
Here is view example:
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.EditorFor(model => model.BirthDate)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(model => model.BirthDate)
</div>
BirthDate is Nullable<DateTime>
but during loading my View I get this exception
The model item passed into the dictionary is null, but this dictionary requires a non-null model item of type 'System.DateTime'.
That's because of BirthDate is null in database but it is nullable and I expect that it just leaves the filed empty.
And I have Shared EditorTemplate:
@model System.Nullable<System.DateTime>
@if (Model.HasValue)

I have setup my business object to have a create_date and edit_date members both datetime datatypes. My company want to display the create_date and edit_date fields in a gridview for each transaction. The problem i have is that after insterting a record it will have a valid create_date but no edit_date and when displayed in the gridview it defaults to datetime.minvalue (My default). How on earth do i show an empty field in my gridview for a null datetime field in the database?
I am using similar architecture to the Imar Spaanjaars example of a tiered solution. With a few small tweeks it has worked well for me for ages. I am passing a List<Database> to my object datasource which connects to my gridview.

This morning I found myself dealing with A SQL POOLING ERROR Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached. I did fix this with resetting my pooling and setting a pooling max =100 Anyway now Im starting to rethink how I open connections, dealing with errors and proper closing of connections Would you say this code below is a good way of opening, closing connections (even when errors occurred)
Dim Connection As SqlConnection
Dim myConn As String = (ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MyConnString").ConnectionString)
Connection = New SqlConnection(myConn)
Try
Dim DBCommand As SqlCommand
Dim dt As New DataTable()
Dim myDataSet As New DataSet
Connection.Open()
DBCommand = New SqlCommand("GetAllCategories_", Connection)
DBCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
DBCommand.Parameters.Add("@HomePageID", SqlDbType.Int).Value = HiddenChosenVirtualMainID.Value
Dim mySqlAdapter As New SqlDataAdapter(DBCommand)
mySqlAdapter.Fill(dt)
SecondLevelChildDatalist.DataSource = dt
SecondLevelChildDatalist.DataBind()
Catch ex As Exception
'Error goes here
SqlConnection.ClearAllPools()
Finally
'close the connction
Connection.Close()
Connection.Dispose()
End Try

What if a user hits my site with [URL]t rather than [URL] In other words, they do not specify a value for {id}. If they do not, I want to display a nice "Not Found" page, since they did not give an ID.Is there a more standard MVC framework way of handling this, rather than the code I presently use (see below), where I test accept a nullable int? and then for null? Surely there is a smoother way to handle this.

I have a problem while checking a hashtable value. In the code below I am storing 60 values in the hashtable "hash". One of the values is (or can be) Null. I am checking each entry against its corresponding entry in hashtable "hash1", to see if they match each other. If they don't match I want to check if the value in "hash" is Null, but I can't catch it - it's falling through the 'else' part). How can I overcome this problem?

I want to retrieve a record which stored in a SQL table as datetime type. How to detect it to see if it is not null value before assign it to a text box? Because in SQL, it displays as '1900-01-01 00:00:00.000'
For example, I want to code something like below:
dim dst as new dataset
if dst.tables(0).rows(0)("OrderDate") is not null then
txtOrderDate.text=dst.tables(0).rows(0)("OrderDate")
End if

I have asp.net form with C#, where is I am taking user information to insert in the database as usual by using Linq. well. Where as I am taking Date of birth also from the user, but if user skip to fill date text box from ui, then I am getting date like '01/01/0001' something like this, which certainly database security would not allow to store it.
So I need to check somewhere in my code that it is null or in this (above given) format. If it is null or in format '01/01/0001' then what exactly I have to do? I don't have any default
value for dates.
So what is the standard way to handle if date is null (but not mandatory). So many times I found myself in trap while handling null for various types.

I need to retrive a value from a column of a table per stored proc. This is usually an integer, but also can be null. I get this value and store it in a session variable.
Later, I need to pass this same session variable to another stored proc.
Session["myVariable"] = ds.tables[0].rows[0][1]; // this can be null or an integer
somewhere else in the project, I need to pass it to another stored proc exactly as received.

I have 2 textboxes for BEGINNING DATE and END DATE. First I compare the dates so that the END DATE is bigger than the BEGINNING DATE. This is OK with the validators.
MY PROBLEM IS: If the END DATE´S TEXTBOX is empty, then it should insert into the SQL DB, a null value. The field has a DATETIME type.
Since my INSERT Query requires a parameter when i call the ADD METHOD, it returns that the END DATE parameter is required.

Given the following simplified code block in ASP.NET
<% foreach( item in Model) { %>
<%=item.OriginalText.OriginalText1 %>
<%} %>
OriginalText is a class which may be null. I am looking for a simple (clean) way to check for this null and return an empty string ("") instead.

I'm using a custom ashx HttpHandler to retrieve gif images from a database and show it on a website - when the image exists, it works great.
However, there are cases when the image will not exist, and I'd like to have the html table holding the image to become invisible so the "image not found" icon is not shown.

Passing a null or nothing value to a datatime datatype database field (Access)
I've been all over the internet looking at this and I have tried dozens of methods without success.
I've read a few forums where, some say you can not assign a null value or a nothing value to a datetime datatype field. Then I see others where they say...'I got it to work'.
If this is true (that you can not pass a null value), how come I can create a record in the Access table and not assign a value to this date field? (The field is defined as not required).
Yet, once a value is in the field, I can not update that field back to a null or a nothing value.
So I'm hoping someone has the definitive answer to this.
I am using VB.Net Vs 2003 and updating an Access data base.
I have an update statement (see below) that uses parameters for updating.
what will work, so that I can put back the null or nothing value?
Or if it really can not be done, I guess I'll have to take that as truth.
