Storing Item Info And Item Data In The Same Table?
Dec 15, 2010
I have a site where users can save images together with a couple of info fields about the image. The images are stored as binary data in the same table as the rest of the image info. So far pretty standard.
Now, the users should be able to upload a document, describing the image in more detail, along with the rest of the image and its' info. Size ~2MB per document.
My question is: Should I store this document (binary data) in the same table as the rest of the images or should I create a new table holding only the documents. There would of course be an id reference in the image table to the document in the document table.
I have a search function joining a couple of tables, including the image table, when searching for images. I need to know if there's a difference in efficiency between these two solutions. I always fetch the document data separately but if I don't win anything in having the documents in a separate table I'll just put it with the rest of the image info.
I'm asking this since I don't really know how SQL Server handle tables when joing and searching in them.
I have about 10´000 users with a maximum of 10 images per user. (ASP.NET - SQL Server) (I'm not asking if I should store documents in the database, but how ;)
Edit
Example 1:
columns in imageTable - id, title, dateAdded, image (binary data), document (binary data)
Searching for items from a specific user I would join the userTable and the imageTable and select title where image id equals user id.
So, will there be any difference in the performance if the document is in the imageTable or in an own table?

i have the following two questions:-
1. let say i have a table for ITEMS including (item id,item description id (FK to the ITEM Description tabe), item price,etc) and have ITEM Description look up table having (item descriptionid,item description),.
so what is better to use the ITEM DESCRIPTION look up table and store the item description id in the items table
or
to directly store the item description "Not the id" in the item table.
2. I am working on an MVC web application using LINQ, now if i want to modify the SQL server tables which i have created for example modify some of the foreign key properties will the effect be directly reflected on any new inserted or deleted records or i have to create a new LINQ to SQL class?

I use a ItemDataBound for a repeater.But i use 2 kinds of linq querys to bind it.Some of them has a MerkID, and some doesnt have this item.So its easy i need to do this:
if(e.Item.DataItem.Contains("MerkID"))
{
//Code for linq query 1
} [code]...
So of course the if selection doesnt work, but how can i do that? I already tryed this:
DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem; if (drv.Row.Table.Columns.Contains("MerkID"))
But that doenst work because he cant convert it to a datarowview because its a linq class.So what to do? Right now i use a try and catch, but there are better solutions i guess...

I have a repeater control:
<asp:Repeater ID="rep" DataSourceID="XMLDSCompare" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
<h4><%# XPath("title")%></h4>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
Now if its the first item in the total resultset, I want to add <div> to ItemTemplate control, if its the 2nd item, I want to add </div>
So output would be (not including table tags generated by repeater control):
<div>
title 1
title 2
</div>
<div>
title 3
title 4
</div>
<div>
title 5
title 6
</div>
How would I do this in the ItemDataBound event of repeater control?

I have a listview set up in "flow" mode where the existing records are all on an extended page so you can scroll down to any record.
The InsertItem Template is in the first position, making it easy to insert a new record.
And one can scroll down the page to any record, click the edit button and update that record -- nice having everything on one scrollable page.
I am running into a problem with validations. I have validation controls restricting inputs for all the textboxes on the Insert Item template. They work fine. And on Item Inserted I am running a page validation:
Page.Validate()
If Not Page.IsValid Then
e.Cancel = True
End If
which works fine also.
The problem occurs when I scroll down to an existing record, and go to edit it. I have all the same validation constraints on the textboxes for the EditItemTemplate as I have on the InsertItemTemplate. But I cannot successfully do a page validation on updating the record. The code I am using on update is:
Protected Sub LVRentals_ItemUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ListViewUpdateEventArgs) Handles LVRentals.ItemUpdating
Page.Validate()
If Not Page.IsValid Then
e.Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
This results in a Cancel even if there are no validation errors on the InsertItemTemplate because the Page.Validate() seems to be causing the InsertItemTemplate to think its fields should be filled out also.
Here is the code for a typical entry of the InsertItem Template:
[code]....
All the controls in the Edit Item template are part of ValidationGroup "edit1" and those of the InsertItem Template are part of ValidationGroup "edit2"
How can I get around receiving validation errors on the InsertItem Template when I am trying to validate just the EditItemTemplate when both are present on the page?

I have a list with 2 sorts of items. Items that have actual values (1,2,3,4 etc) and items that are like group headings so all their values are set to 0. If someone decides to select a group heading - which has a value of 0, is it possible to redirect them to my 'Select an item' item which has a value of ""?
If worse comes to worse, I can just reconstruct the entire list, although if possible I'd like to avoid it.

I have a project that queries a set of times from a database and uses these entries to populate a dropdownlist. Once the page is loaded, the user can select one of the items in the DropDownList. When the "Save" button is clicked, the Selected item value is returned to the [HttpPost] version of the controller action. This item is then stored into session. If the system returns to the page containing the dropdown, I want the saved Value to be selected in the DropDownList. What actually happens is that the DropDownList is always set to be the first item in the list.

I have a form free user feilds, some drop down which are populated by a database data and a button. I want to create a new line in a table when the user clicks on the button. the values for this new line will come from the Values (not visible content) of the drop box, the content of the text feild, the user ID that I should get from the connection and the current date... ie, I want do do a INSERT INTO table (userid, dropdown, text, date) values (how do I get the user ID from the session?, how do I get the value from the drop down?, how do I get the text from the text box?, how do I get the current date?)

I have come from MS Access and am working through a couple of textbooks on ASP.NET 4. I am using the Gridview control connected to an SQL data source control.
As an exercise I am converting my simpliest MS Access page which is simple a form to request a new stock item in our engineering stores. I have a normalised table called [stock_requests] and part of this is a field calle [failure_mode]. This field is an integer and there is another table listing the possible values for this field.
This other table is called [failure_modes] and has two field:
[id] < the primary key
[mode] < the text to be displayed
In my main table [stock_requests] in the field [failure_mode] I store the [id] from the [failure_modes] table for the applicable record in the [failure_modes] table. So for example if someone wanted to select "Catastrophic" as the failure mode the [stock_requests].[failure_mode] field would be 1; if the user selected "Gradual" as the failure mode the [stock_requests].[failure_mode] field would be 2 etc.
Now, the gridview wants to display "1" or "2" but I want to display "gradual" or "catastrophic" without using views and all the headaches that brings. I have managed to sort out editting by using a templated field where I have a drop down list in this cell and I databind to a second SQL data source (imaginatively called SqlDataSource2).
what is the best method for displaying the text 'Catastophic' or 'Gradual' etc. when in normal mode (view mode)? Is it another templated field and what is the basic approach I should use? I reckon I should be able to work it out once someone points me in the right direction.

And design code
 <asp:DropDownList ID="DDL2" runat="server" CssClass="daddsd">
</asp:DropDownList>
And here is imagebutton code that when click on it update data into table
protected void ImageButton_Click1(object sender, ImageClickEventArgs e) {
string data = Server.UrlDecode(Request.QueryString["BehCode2"]);
SqlCommand _cmd = new SqlCommand("insertinfo", _cn);
_cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
_cn.Open();
[Code] ....
Here when i click on button it insert all data into table but it didn't insert my selected item from dropdownlist it insert select city that i define in page_load
 DDL1.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem("select city", "0"));
And when i delete this code from page load it insert in table first row of my table it didn't insert my selected item from dropdown list.

I am trying to get a drop down and a form view to work together. I've never used form views before. I also am using the entity framework to do everything. This is also my first time with it.
I want to be able to have a drop down, that is populate from the same data source as the form view. So far that works fine.
I then want to be able to change the drop down item, and it change the form view item that is displayed. I cannot figure out how to make this work.
