C# - Getting Xml Columns From LinqDataSource To Appear In A GridView?
Jul 25, 2010
I have a LinqDataSource and a GridView displaying a table. Columns of type xml don't show up. I'd like them to show up something like they do in Sql Server query outputs, with a link to display the clickable xml, though there may be another approach i'm not considering (maybe a styled display of the xml data, etc.). Two things i'd like to know how to do
First, get the xml converted to a string, and display it in the table. Maybe the first 30 chars.
Finally, style the xml into something useful, like a clickable link to display the full xml, or a sub-table, or a styled string.
So the following works, and displays a nice table, with edit and delete links. But Xml fields are missing. How would you go about adding support for the Xml fields?

Im using LinqDataSource like that:
<asp:LinqDataSource ID="LinqDataSource3" runat="server" OnSelecting="LinqDataSource3_OnSelecting">
</asp:LinqDataSource>
And I have ASPxGridView
<dxwgv:ASPxGridView ID="ASPxGridView2" ClientInstanceName="ASPxGridView2Client"
runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataSourceID="LinqDataSource3">
</dxwgv:ASPxGridView>
In this way Im able to add columns dynamically while handling onSelecting event:
protected void LinqDataSource3_OnSelecting(object sender, LinqDataSourceSelectEventArgs e)
{
MyModelDataContext context = new MyModelDataContext();
ASPxGridView grid = ASPxPageControl1.TabPages[3].FindControl("ASPxGridView2") as ASPxGridView;
if(grid.Columns.Count == 0){
GridViewDataTextColumn txtColumn1 = new GridViewDataTextColumn();
GridViewDataTextColumn txtColumn2 = new GridViewDataTextColumn();
txtColumn1.FieldName = "UserId";
txtColumn2.FieldName = "FirstName";
grid.Columns.Add(txtColumn1);
grid.Columns.Add(txtColumn2);
}
e.Result = from u in context.Users select new { UserId = u.UserId, FirstName = u.FirstName };
}
It is all made simply to test cause my idea is to have solution that makes it possible to use inqDataSource as a datasource for de ASPxGridView but join 2 or 3 tables and show results in this grid.
What I want to ask is if its good solution or is there any other better way to present some views made from couple of tables by join?
Second question is that I have Users and Group and I would like to have one table in which I would have two columns Name and Type For groups type would by group and for users type would be user. I dont have such a table in my database Is it possible to create specific class. Create List of objects of that class and fill it using linq query and the use it as linq data source for that grid ?
clas would be:
pseudocode:
Class MyClass {
string Type;
string Name;
}
or is there any other way to create such a table ?

I've a gridview bound to linqdatasource1 and a details bound to linqdatasource2 (for searching).
When I update the data on detailsview, my gridview is not updating. I've tried handling various gridview events and databinding the gridview in code but it doesn't seem to work.

i have a grdidview control on the .aspx page and i am trying to connect dynamically from code behind and bind the gridview but somehow it throwing me an error... what is wrong with this code?
LinqDataSource LDS_POReport = new LinqDataSource();
LDS_POReport.ContextTypeName = "DataContextDataContext";
LDS_POReport.Selecting += new EventHandler<LinqDataSourceSelectEventArgs>(LinqDataSourcePO_Selecting);
this.gvReport.DataSource = "LDS_POReport";
//this.gvReport.DataBind();
Update:
after i update the code to this.gvReport.DataSource = LDS_POReport;
it works fine but when i try to sort i get this error:
The GridView 'gvReport' fired event Sorting which wasn't handled.
i added this but no effect.
LDS_POReport.AutoPage = true;
LDS_POReport.AutoSort = true;

the problem is not solved the way i wanted but i go ahead give the credit to : ŁukaszW.pl for his time and effort.
i am using gridview control and a linqdatasource and its all working fine and i have added the functionlity of searchingBySubject and i added WhereParameters and than binding my gridview (see the code below) but somehow its not returning any rows and i see i have number of rows based on what i am searching.
protected void btnSearch_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.LinqDataSource1.WhereParameters["Subject"].DefaultValue = this.txtSubject.Text;

I have two tables:
Orders
OrderProducts - An order can have 1 to many orderProducts records associated with it.
What I am trying to do (unsuccessfully) is to implement a GridView search using a LinqDataSource wherein the search returns Order results where any of the OrderProduct.Manufacturer columns contain a search query. I was hoping the following would work, however it seems lambda expressions do not work within a Where clause of a LinqDataSource (in VB):
<asp:LinqDataSource ID="dsOrders" runat="server" ContextTypeName="myDataContext" TableName="orders"
Where="orderProducts.Any(Function(op) op.Manufacturer.Contains(@searchTerm))">
<WhereParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter Name="searchTerm" ControlID="txtSearchTerm" DefaultValue="" />
</WhereParameters>
</asp:LinqDataSource>
In C# it would look like:
<asp:LinqDataSource ID="dsOrders" runat="server" ContextTypeName="myDataContext" TableName="orders"
Where="orderProducts.Any(op => op.Manufacturer.Contains(@searchTerm))">
<WhereParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter Name="searchTerm" ControlID="txtSearchTerm" DefaultValue="" />
</WhereParameters>
</asp:LinqDataSource>
The error I am getting is:
No property or field 'op' exists in type 'orderProduct' Any clues as to how to get this working within the LinqDataSource definition, or will I have to handle and set up a custom OnSelecting event?

Im using a LINQDataSource to populate a GridView of Universities.
Each University has an associated State, which is in another table and associated by a foreign key (StateID).
I have a TemplateField in the GridView so that when you view it normally it displays the StateName which comes from the State table and when you edit it shows a DDL populated with everything from the State table.
[Code]....
If I debug, inside of RowUpdating, GridViewUpdateEventArgs.NewValues doesnt even have a key for State.
Question: How do I let my gridview know I want it to update this column? All the BoundFields just seem to work...

I have three tables in database:
ARTICLE with fields like ID_Article, Title, etc. and also a FK ID_Author
CATEGORY with fields ID_Category, Name
CATEGORYTOARTICLE with fields ID_Article, ID_Category
Now I have a page that shows all Articles of a given Category. Inside there is a GridView.
[Code]....
The ID of the viewed Category is passed via QueryString.
How to access the fields of Article table so that I can create columns for them in GridView? I tried using Eval("Article.Title") but it keeps saying that "DataBinding: 'konserwatyzm.db.CategoryToArticle' does not contain a property with the name 'Article'."

I have a GridView that has several dynamic columns (I do not know how many at design time and it could be 0-12 columns, hence need for dynamic columns). I have the columns in the grid and data bound to them - works great. There are other standard, design-time TemplateField columns with TextBox controls in them. These are bound with values that the user can edit. The grid is posted back via a Submit button. My question is "Why does gv.Columns.Insert() cause all my TextBox data to be null on Postback, but gv.Columns.Add() works like a champ?"
protected void BuildColumns()
{
// The first column to begin to insert the columns in the GridView
int columnIndex = 5;
BoundField aoColumn = new BoundField();
aoColumn.HeaderText = "New Column 1";
gvMyGrid.Columns.Insert(columnIndex, aoColumn); // kills txtQuantity.Text on postback
gvMyGrid.Columns.Add(aoColumn); // works fine
columnIndex++;
foreach (MyEntity my in _myEntityCollection)
{
BoundField myColumn = new BoundField();
myColumn.HeaderText = String.Format("{0:d}", my.StartDate);
gvMyGrid.Columns.Insert(columnIndex, myColumn);
columnIndex++;
}
}
I then go on to assign values to these BoundFields in the _RowDataBound method and all of this works great. However, when I post back and try to reference some TextBox and they are all null. And yes, I have the BuildColumns() call wrapped in if (!IsPostBack) on Page_Load. Of course I would like to use .Insert() so that the columns can go in the proper location and not at the end of the Columns array.

The datasource of the datagrid is a LINQDataSource which relies on the value of a dropdownlist. In addition, I want to use the footer to insert new records - so I'd prefer not to use the empty dataset template. I am trying to find a way to always display the footer regardless if the datasource is empty or not.
EDIT:
Is there a way to create an empty/invisible object of the type in the LinqDataSource?

GridView1.Columns.Count is always zero even SqlDataSource1.DataBind();
But Grid is ok I can do
for (int i = 0; i < GridView1.HeaderRow.Cells.Count;i++)
I rename request headers here but
GridView1.Columns[i].Visible = false;
I can't use it because of GridView1.Columns.Count is 0. So how can I hide them ?

I have a datasource, which includes many columns, idealy, I need use a gridview to show:
1) first 3 columns: template fields, these fields depends on values in some columns of datasource. I use template fields, hard coded. works fine.
2) the other columns. This is I do not know how to do it. In the data source, there are about 10-20 columns data, each time, the # of columns of the data varies. idealy, I need show each of them as a seperated column in gridview. The entire data source may have 30 columns, but some of them are used in 1), and I only want show these 10-20 columns in gridview. Some columns in data source, I may not use them at all. is there a way to do this? or have to seperate them as a detail view style UI?

I apologize for the odd title. I've been trying to figure out how to do this and can't quite put it into words. Basically, I need to try to display a GridView with a whole bunch of columns (37 in one case) in two "rows" of columns. More or less.
So instead of this:
Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5 Column6
Data Data Data Data Data Data
Data Data Data Data Data Data
Data Data Data Data Data Data
I'd like something like this:
Column1 Column2 Column3
Data Data Data
Data Data Data
Data Data Data
Column4 Column5 Column6
Data Data Data
Data Data Data
Data Data Data
As in the example there can be multiple rows returned which all need to be displayed. I'm trying to stop a very large horizontal scroll bar being required. I've been searching as much as I can but haven't found anything that fits what I'm looking for.

I have a GridView with 5 fields. Only two of the fields are edittable (the others are READONLY).
I have an UpdateCommand as follows
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:NHLPOOL %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT [PlayerID], [Firstname], [lastname], [Goals], [Assists], [Goals]+[Assists] as Points, [AsOfDate] FROM [PlayerStats], [Player] where [PlayerStats].[PlayerID] =[Player].[ID] ORDER BY Points DESC"
UpdateCommand="UPDATE PlayerStats SET Goals =@GOALS, Assists =@ASSISTS, AsofDate=GETDATE() WHERE PLAYERID = @PLAYERID">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
The issue is I want the PLAYERID GV column to be READONLY but I get a runtime error when updating if the PLAYERID is READONLY.
I get the error "
Must declare the scalar variable "@PLAYERID"."

I have a gridview and I would like to be able to programatically change the HeaderText of it's columns (probably in the DataBinding event). I know this can normally be achieve with something like this:
myGrid.Columns[0].HeaderText = "My Header Text";
However, the gridview in question is actually nested within another gridview (via template column). So I can't access it directly. I'm trying to use the FindControl method to access it, but so far that isn't working.
