Web Forms :: Adding Record With Null Date Field With LinqToSql

May 14, 2010

Dim newMem As New Subscription With { _
.First = txtName.Text, _
.Email = txtEmail.Text, _
.dateLastEmail = "1/1/1980", _
.subDate = Now}
dbp.Subscriptions.InsertOnSubmit(newMem)
dbp.SubmitChanges()

The table contains a field called conDate that is nullable, and in this case I want it to remain null. It will get a date value later, when a confirmation is received. If I add .conDate = "1/1/1980", _ I can successfully add the record, but without that line I get System.InvalidOperationException: Nullable object must have a value. I tried this:

Dim DateConfirm As System.Nullable(Of DateTime) = Nothing and adding
.conDate = DateConfirm, _ but that didn't help either. How can I add a record without giving a date to a field I want to remain null?

MVC :: Model Validation Happens Automatically With LinqToSql DateTime Fields, But Not Other NOT NULL Fie...

Mar 15, 2010

I'm using MVC 2 with some Models from a LinqToSql project that I built. I see that when I post back to a Controller Action after editing a form that has a DateTime field from the Model, the MVC Html.ValidationMessageFor() helper will nicely display an error beside the Date text box. This seems to happen automatically when the you test ModelState.IsValid() in the Controller Action, as if the MVC model binding automatically knows that the DateTime field cannot be empty.

My question is... I have some other string fields in these LinqToSql generated classes that are Not-Nullable (marked as Not Nullable in Sql Server which passes thourgh to the LinqToSql generated classes), so why doesn't Mr. MVC pick up on those as well and display a "Required" message in the ValidationMessageFor() placeholders I have added for those fields?

Sure, I have successfully added the MetadataType(typeof<t>) buddy classes to cover these Non-nullable string fields, but it sure does seem redundant to add all this metadata in buddy classes when the LinqToSql generated classes already contain enough info that MVC could sniff out. It MVC validation works with DateTime automatically, why not these Not-nullable fields too?

Databases :: MySQL - CSharp To Assign Null Date Time To A Class Field?

Feb 21, 2011

Using MySQL 5.

In my SAP.NEt project, defined a constant:

public static DateTime NullDateTime = DateTime.MinValue;

I have a function:

protected static DateTime GetDateTime(DataRow row, string columnName)
{
return (row[columnName] != DBNull.Value) ?
Convert.ToDateTime(row[columnName]) :
Globals.NullDateTime;
}

In the source code:

public DateTime StationFeedTime{ get; set; }
StationFeedTime = GetDateTime(row, "StationFeedTime");

I ran a SQL to fetch records from MySQL, this field is Time field in MySQL.

Got an exception inside the function:

Unable to cast object of type 'System.TimeSpan' to type 'System.IConvertible'.

Forms Data Controls :: A Required Input Field DropDownList If Old Records Have Null In This Field?

Apr 1, 2011

I have a DetailsView on the page and I have made one of the fields a TemplateField. In the EditItemTemplate and InsertItemTemplate I have a DropdownList that is databound to a table in my Sql Server database. I wanted to add an initial value to the DropdownList
namely "- select -" .

I set the AppendDataBoundItems property to true and added the initial value as a ListItem.Markup of the DropdownList

<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList_HP" runat="server"

AppendDataBoundItems="True" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource_HP" [code]...

This works fine for new input. The problem is however that the database already has records that were entered through a Windows Application and many of these records has a null value in this field and exceptions are thrown when I tried to open these records
and the system tried to set the SelectedValue of the DropdownList.After some more searching I found this help

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms366709.aspx

So I changed the ListItem in the DropDownList markup to the following:

<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList_RefHospDV4" runat="server"

AppendDataBoundItems="True" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource_RefHosp" [code]...

This now solved the problem of opening a record where the value is null in the database, BUT now the RequiredFieldValidator is not validating anymore to make sure that a databound item is selected for this field and not the initial value "- select -". So basically now it is not checking anymore to see if valid input has been entered for the DropDownList and it accepts "- select -" thus it acts as if the field is not a required field anymore.

In short what is required is that I want to make sure that the user enters a valid selection in the DropDownList, but it must also cater for old records that do not have this field entered yet so that those old records can be opened in the DetailsView .Opening Old records (with null in that field):When these old records are opened in the DetailsView the DropDownlist should show "- select -" when the value in the database is null.

Saving records (old or new records):When saving the record in Insert mode or Update mode the RequiredFieldValidator should show that a valid input is not selected if the DropDownList is still on "- select -".

Forms Data Controls :: FormView Clearing Value Set In Page_load / Initialize A Date Field In The FormView to Today's Date?

Sep 2, 2010

I have a page with a FormView on it. The page is strictly for adding records to a Table. I have the FormView bound to an EntityDataSource and everything works greate except for one thing.

I want to initialize a date field in the FormView to today's date. So, in my page_load event I have:

if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
//Initialize SetupDate to today.
TextBox setupdate = (TextBox)fvJob.FindControl("txtSetupDate");
setupdate.Text = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();
}

The first time this page loads, the txtSetupDate field is initialized.

Although, and subsequent loads of the page doesn't initialize the Text Box. I step through the code in the debugger and I can see that the code is executig, but something (the FormView bind?) is "clearing" the Text Box.

I have a databound gridview that displays basic customer information. I have added a template field to the gridview, but I am having trouble with the coding for the RowDataBound event.

Web Forms :: How To Web Form Is Adding /null/ To Query String

Jul 21, 2010

I am using IIS 7 and have URL rewrite turned on for a friendly URL.

The problem is that in side that pages repeater (right under the captcha) when I click on the images in there the page redirects to /null/ which then throws a 404 error. I have turned off url rewrite and removed all rules and that didnt solve the problem so I dont think its related to that.

I have also noticed that in my master page if I use <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">

then the client side ajax fails to load, sys becomes undefined and that may be the problem here

I'm at a loss, this is the first time I have seen these problems occur.
