Web Forms :: Convert Drop Down String Values To Int
Feb 1, 2010
i have two tables which are related (school and departments). school_table (school_id, school_name) and department (dept_id, dept_name, school_id). page 1 creates the school - i take school name via textbox and school_id is auto generated in database. so informatics = 1, science = 2, etc page2 creates department - i take department name via textbox, dept_id is auto generated, and now i need a way to take school_id from this page to create the relationships (so we know which department belongs to which school). however, i don't really want the user to enter school Id that gets auto generated in the schools_table, instead i want to create a drop down list and populate it with the school_name values taken from page one. but these drop down values should represent an int value behind the scene since it needs to go to school_id (department_table) but how can i convert the drop down values from string to int so that if i enter informatics from drop down the value will be 1 in the school_id column?
on VWD 2005 this code works fine, but on 2008 it says I haven't created an instance of the object. I want to convert the object connString (a connection string) into a string.
'This acceses the virtual directory web.config file for connection strings 'We have to convert the object to a connection string Dim rootWebConfig As System.Configuration.Configuration rootWebConfig = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("/VirtualDirec") Dim connString As System.Configuration.ConnectionStringSettings connString = rootWebConfig.ConnectionStrings.ConnectionStrings("ConnectString1") Dim strConnString As String = connString.ToString().......
I have project in development where string operations like "Hi " + variable + ", welcome to Project" are used at many places (given example is very minor one).
One of the requirement is to convert it to string.format style.
It is very long and tedious job, where I would not like to break earlier working code due to any human error might happen while converting it.
I would like to if any Macro or VS command which I can create to handle it. Just like we mark block of code and do Extract function in Re-factor options.
i am displaying some news from rss feeds in the page. But i am stuck up in the date time conversion. I got th published datetime as pdt formated string. How can i convert to my local time. Coversion from the pdt string tot DateTime is error..
[Code]....
This second line is error and i need the result in the specified format or same format as in the published date but in local time ie IST (India Standard Time)
I have a string I need to convert back to a date. I can call .ToString("yyyyMMdd") and get the string i want. My question is how can I convert that back into a date? I'm trying something like the following with no luck.
DateTime d; var formatInfo = new DateTimeFormatInfo {ShortDatePattern = "yyyyMMdd"}; if (DateTime.TryParse(details.DetectionTime.Date, formatInfo, DateTimeStyles.None, out d)) { lit.Text = d.ToShortTimeString(); //would like 07/30/2010 as the text }
I've never used DateTimeFormatInfo before if that isn't obvious. Can someone point me in the right direction. I know I could probably use substring and create a new DateTime(y, m, d) etc... I'm just wondering since c# interpreted .ToString() correctly, if it can't derive a date from the very same string it output.
someone can help and provide some info or links to achieve the following:
I would like to prompt a message box with a drop down list that retrieves values from a sql server at runtime so user can select from. After user selects the value from the drop down list, the value is passed to the Master/content page to use as an additional query parameter to proceed to the next step to display content page.I understand how to create a message box in javascript, but I understand you can't do queries from javascript, if I'm correct.

I have a detailsview which includes a drop down list bound to an array. However, when I click on the cancel button the dropdownlist values disappear. I have tried to solve the problem by rebinding the values back into list on the cancel command event, but this has made no difference. Does anyone know how to solve this?
When running our web application the following message appears:
Failed to convert parameter value string to decimal. We believe that the problem might be with the sequence which generates the user_id. The user_id should be the output after successful insert of record. The stored procedure works well from within the DB and Visual Studio. Our DB version: 11gR1 on Windows.The web form has a button event with this c#-code:
