Web Forms :: Attempting To Truncate Fields In A GridView?
Jan 25, 2010
I have been trying to figure this out and can't... I have seen this code used before but for some reason it will not work in this situation. I have a GridView and I want to truncate cells where the field length is greater than 18 characters and then show the entire contents in a tool tip. The tool tip works fine but I can't get the field contents to truncate. When I run in debugger the tc.text always shows as . but when the page renders there is content in these cells, content over 18 characters. The code never errors out it just never sees the contents as anything but "" and therefore never truncates the field contents.

I am attempting to add a drop down menu to a gridview once the user slects the "Edit" button for the gridview. I want the value, before the edit button is selected, to be the value in one table and once the "Edit" button is selected I want to show values from another table in a drop down menu so the user only has specific values to edit the selected row with.
2 tables:
table 1) tbl_FormalizeRawData - List of columns from a table inside a database
table 2) tbl_StandardColumns - list of standard column names for system tables.
I want the user to be able to specify which raw non standard columns corospond to the standardized system table columns.
example:
RawClientTable.MiscColumn1 = SystemTable.Member_First_Name
RawClientTable.MiscColumn2 = SystemTable.Member_Last_Name
my code for the gridview is as follows. I am looking to see what else I need to do in order to allow the gridview to be edited on the final column by a dropdown menu populated by a seperate table but display the item in the main table with all the non standard column names:

a boot in the rright direction. I attempted to go through the "Walkthrough: Displaying a Drop-Down List While Editing in the GridView Web Server Control" at the website[URL] as it was geared toward a drop down menu added to a gridview both using the same table.

I am using TempleteFields for all columns in my GridView. In that columns I am using only some fields for customization but not all.
Is there any performance issue with Databound Fields vs Templete Fields in a GridView...?
Do I need to replace the remaining columns with Databound Columns instead of TempletField columns...?

I have a GridView, and I want Column1 to be equal to datatable data (filled by a SqlDataAdapter). Then I have two other fields by the SqlDataAdapter (first name, last name), and I want to have those two fields combined to form Column2. I have a TemplateField for my GridView that combines the first name and last name with Eval()'s, but the GridView places this combined field TemplateField and puts it as the first column.
How can I do this so that TemplateField can go in between fields that are databound?

I have seen a number of posts on this, but none that quite serve my needs. I have a GridView with template fields. I use postback because when a value is entered in one field a calculation is done to supply the value in another field. I simply loop through all the rows after each postback (there are not many so it is fast). I do not use a select command or button to select a row. After postback I do not know how to return the focus to the row that was being used. I can return the focus to the first row just by using gridview1.focus.

using Telerik RadGrid* in a LINQ context, with ASP.NET/C#, how to truncate text to a maximum length when displaying in columns? By maximum, I mean if original string's length is shorter than the specified maximum length, no errors will raise.I have seen many examples of this on the net, but it seems that the Container.DataItem used to achieve this is different when using LINQ. Sometimes we see DataItem as a method, sometimes not. Examples are usually using a DataSet.Here's an example found (source) :
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Description">
<ItemTemplate>
<%# ValidateString(Container.DataItem("Description")) %>

I get an error when I try to update a row in an SQL database table with a string of fewer characters than were previously stored. I attempted to correct this problem by using the "PadRight" function in my C# webpage event handler to fill in the remaining characters with spaces, but I don't seem to be able to make that work. So, what do I do when I want to store fewer characters in a table row that has more characters previously stored in it?

I have a sql data souce that returns several columns of data, and they are displayed in a DetailsView on a pretty simple vb.net page. I'm stuggling with one field though for the details view.
It's a template field, and if ClientType=1 (this value is determined else where on the page), then the label in the template field should have Text='<%# Bind("ClientName") %>', but if the ClientType = 0, then the label in the template field should have Text='<%# Bind("ClientTemporaryName") %>'
How do I tell the details view to set the text for ClientName to one or the other?

I want to display a number to words. for eg : RO 70.357 should display as "Seventy Rials and three hundred fifty seven baiza" because in Oman currency is of 3 decimal digits.
My question is below
When I used truncate function to get the decimal value it returning with 2 decimal digits. eg: 70.36 (357 is rounded to 36)
I want to display exact digits without rounding a decimal value.

My gridview displays fields from a table and allows for edit, delete and insert. I need to add a column with a derived field which will be calculated every time the user is either entering a new row or editing the value of the weight field which is one of the fields of the gridview. This calculation is done in the fly and won't be saved in the database.

I have a large asp.net project to which I want to add MVC functionality. I have added the necessary references into the project (System.Web.Mvc (v 2.0), System.Web.Abstractions (v 3.5) and System.Web.Routing (v 3.5) and amended all the required files (Global.asax (routing requirements), the web.config, project (Controllers and View folders) and created a basic HomeController and ViewPage.
When I run the application and attempt to go to the controller via {serverpath}Home I am getting the error "An unhandled exception has occurred - Could not load file or assembly 'System.Web' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified." I've tried browsing the net but the error is too vague; is there a good way to identify exactly why the assembly cannot load?

I have a Gridview showing the data on one of my tables, and when I try to edit the data in one of the columns after I click update, rather than updating the record with the new value I typed in, the rows become null as in, everything in the row I just edited disappears. This inmediatly makes my application crash because one of the fields in my table (IssueDescription) doesn't allows null values.
This is the code, which is actually 100% auto-generated from when I created the GridView control and specified in the options to implement update, delete, edit options.
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True"
AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="ticketNum"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" [code].....
What is making the rows turn into null after the update? I did some research and tried to define the Update behaviour myself using RowUpdating function. After hours of learning how to use it I got it to "work", but because the Update turns everything to null when it updates, the sqlconnection command I use to do the query sends null anyways. I can paste the C# code if you'd like to see it, though I'd rather not use it if the auto-generated by asp above can be fixed instead.

I've got a gridiew with I've bound data to using a linq query as a datasource.The issue I have now is that I'm not sure how i can go about adjusting the appearance of the results in the fields.For example, if I want to turn the results in field 1 into a hyperlink (per record, e.g. record 1's hyperlink would point to url "x" and record's hyperlink 2 would point to url "y") which points to a location determined by a db query based on the record's value, how can I do that?And how would I go about adding columns that aren't present in the results, like a checkbox for each record?I suppose the stumbling block for me is that when using a linq query as a datasource, I am not presented with a layout of any kind in the aspx page, unless I use a linqtoSQL datasource (Which I would rather not use as I can't use complex queries with it....can I?
