I have 2 tables: Users and Accounts. The Accounts table has CreatedBy, UpdatedBy fields for audit purposes.
On my UI I need to display: ABC Inc. was last modified by "John Smith" - where John Smith is the UpdatedBy ID from the user's table.
In my DataContext file I have removed all relationships. Can anyone tell me how to retrieve the username for the foreign key.
I have two tables - Advert and Student
adID is the primary key (Advert) and acts as the foreign key for Student
I have two pages, both of which each have a detailsview in insert mode
what I want to achieve is to create a new record in advert.aspx (e.g. adID = 4), then when item is inserted, redirect to page student.aspx (which a student record is created) where the foreign key is the ID from the advert just created (e.g. student.aspx?adID=4).
What is the difference when retrieving username for the view?
<%= Page.User.Identity.Name %>
or
<%= Membership.GetUser().UserName %>
I could retrieve current username, but how Could I get CurrentUserID. I ma using builtin asp.net membership provider and UserID field is UniqueIdentifier.

Once the user has authenticated, I would like to base all of the information displayed to the user based on their username. Isn't that saved in the cookie?
For instance, I would like to pull all of their client information using a GridView and have the parameter set to the appropriate authentication information.

View 3 RepliesI have dropdownlist that maps from a SQL foreign key, which can be NULL.
Currently, I've added a "Please select..." to the top of my dropdown list and assigned it a value of 0.
I know how to map from the drop down list to SQL using a CASE statement in my UpdateCommand.
But how to I map from the SELECT statement to my dropdownlist? If this foreign key contains null I get "Item not in Dropdown list". I'd like to show "Please Select..." as the dropdownlist item if the SQL item contains NULL. I saw something online that says to use the value '''' for 'Please select...', but I don't think it's right, plus it doesn't work.
Do I have to do something in my SELECT statement or do I have to do something on DDL.Databind?

View 2 RepliesFor my Dynamic Data site I have a table that has a join to a number of other tables. If I use the standard page for this table I get all of my columns from the primary table and related tables (which is good) and the appropriate literal values from the related table (which is great). The bad part is the order of the columns.
To address the order of the columns I created Custom Folder/Page for the table. I also have a partial class that controls date formatting. This takes care of the ordering of columns fine (which is a step forwared), but now I'm seeing the foreign key IDs instead of the literal values from related tables (which is a step backward).
All I did was copy the standard page to the Custom folder for the table, turn off AutoGenerateColumns, and specify the column order and display name. Why would the foreign key change occur? As a side note, if addressing column order in the partial class is the preferred method I could go that route, but I haven't been able to understand how to do that in VB (I've seen many examples in C#, but that's not my strong point).
I have a strange problem. I suddenly noticed that the gridviews on my list.aspx page are now displaying the numeric foreign key value rather than the display column value. For example, instead of displaying:
[Code].....
I have a database with a 1 to many relationship in SQL Server 2008. I have created a formview in VS2008 to insert records into the child table. However I can't set the foreign key to automatically insert this value. If I manually type in a value the insert works but I need it to pick up the fk ID automatically from the master table. How can I do this?
The master table: tblTopic has ID int auto increment primary key and the child table has ID int auto increment primary key and TopicID int allow duplicates no nulls, foreign key. I have set updates to cascade in the relationship.
My insert statement is INSERT INTO tblTopic (TopicID, Comment, SubmittedBy) VALUES (@TopicID, @Comment,@SubmittedBy). The TopicID keeps throwing the error, this is the foreign key.
This is the first time I have tried to do this, so apologies if it's really obvious but I'm on a bit of learning curve.
I'm not sure if you would consider it a foreign key field or not, but I have an agency table with an association to my Project table. It exists primarily to limit the input values of agency in the Project table to those listed in the Agency table. Anyway, everything works fine, except that when you insert/add a project, the Agency field is moved to the end of the list. I'd like to move it back where it belongs (further up the list).
