    - DataBinding Format Question I am using the following code to apply the databinding format for Date (04/12/2003) **********************CODE***************************** Private WithEvents DateBinding As Binding DateBinding = New Binding("Text", Me.DsReport1, _ "Report.Date") Me.RichTextBox.DataBindings.Add(DateBinding) Sub Format(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ConvertEventArgs) Handles _ DateBinding.Format Dim dt As DateTime = CType(e.Value, DateTime) e.Value = dt.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") End Sub ********************************************************* It works perfectly but every time I load the form on design mode, the following messages appear: "The variable DateBinding is not declared or it was not assigned never" "The type System.Windows.Forms.Form does not have a field named DateBinding" Now, this can't be right and I sure don't want to leave it like that but I can't figure it out. Any recommendations please? Thanks! Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73539

    - FIND like old ADO method Is there any kind of FIND in ADO.NET that works the same way as the old ADO Recordset FIND? The old ADO Find would accept a criteria string, and then find the first record that matches the criteria. For instance, rs.Find("text_value like '* | *') would position me on the first record that contained a bar (' | '). It didn't filter anything, but just positioned the database at that record (or, in ADO.NET, would give me the row index of the first record matching this criteria). I see SELECT on a datatable and ROWFILTER on a dataview, but these all filter... I simply want to find the first record matching this criteria. I can probably get around it by simply reading all the records and programatically searching for the first one that matchs, but was hoping for a built-in solution. Thanks in advance.

    - Using SqlCommandBuilder with Transactions Hi, i have a DataSet with 3 Tables. For each table i have defined a SqlDataAdapter Object. The SqlCommands for Deleting, Inserting und Updating were created by the SqlCommandBuider Object. I have wrote the following Code, to write the Content DataSet. public void WriteData() { SqlCommandBuilder buildCmd1; SqlCommandBuilder buildCmd2; SqlCommandBuilder buildCmd3; buildCmd1 = new SqlCommandBuilder(this.adapter1); buildCmd2 = new SqlCommandBuilder(this.adapter2); buildCmd3 = new SqlCommandBuilder(this.adapter3); this.sqlConn.Open(); this.adapter1.Update(this.dataSet, table1); this.adapter2.Update(this.dataSet, table2); this.adapter3.Update(this.dataSet, table3); this.sqlConn.Close(); } Now i want to encapsulate the three Updates in one Transaction? How can i assign the dynamic generated SqlCommand Objects to a SqlTransaction Object? Thanks Andreas Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73524

    - Attaching a table to a remote Database Hello ! I'm trying to make a link between two Access databases. Actually there are a few Tables in one of them I want to attach to the other (attach or add) knowing that the schema of the tables changes depending of which database is opened in the first place. Consequently I can't write a SQL script I can run against the second database. Can anyone help me doing this ?

    - Detached DataRows and Relationships Hi, Does anybody know how to set the parent row of a child table's row to a detached row? I'm using Forms DataBinding. If I add a new row for editing, using BindingContext(someDataSet,"ParentTable").AddNew() the row's RowState is Detached. Now, if I try to add any child rows to a child table with this row set as the child rows' parent, an InvalidConstraintException will be thrown, telling me that the child's key value must exist in in the parent table (which it doesn't because the parent row is still detached). Is there a way around this, without having to first add the parent row to its table (by calling bindingcontext(someDataSet, "ParentTable).EndCurrentEdit())? Hope that all made sense Thanks, Dave Hagedorn Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73513

    - sproc with output param and a trigger We have been using the same sproc for an insert for quite some time. The sproc create a new key for the record to insert, uses the key for the insert and then has an output param for the key. The key field in the DataTable is 'names_id'. The is the sourcecolumn for the sql output param. Yesterday, one of our developers added an insert trigger to the table the sproc inserts into. Now, we are getting an exception that state 'name_id' cannot be Null. Very strange as his usually suggests to me I am passing in a parameter that is NULL. Well, names_id is not a param to the sproc. It's the source column for the sql output param. I am new to triggers so I have no idea what introducing the trigger has done. Anyone know what the source column for an output param would all of a sudden be NULL? Strange thing to is I no longer see the sproc running in SQL Profiler.

    - SP works when debugged/execute via query analyser but not when called from ADO.NET Hi, Okay heres a bit of background. Running WinXP Pro SP1, IIS5.1, SQL Server 2000 SP3, VS.NET 2003, Framework 1.1. This is porting job from VB6 webclass app to VB.NET httphandler DLL. I have a database wrapper class which has methods like RunSP etc... so all my DB calls use the same code so the problem is not that I am coding the command object differently or anything like that. Any way I call an SP that both creates and deletes data. The SP in fact calls other SPs and the SP uses BEGIN TRANS etc... However for some reason after it has been run the data is not correct, its almost as if one of the inner called SPs has failed or been passed the wrong ID or something. However if I pause the code on the line that calls my .RunSP method, and then go to query analyser and either debug and step through the SP or just execute it straight and then manually by hand set variables in my code to those values that would normally be set by the output parameters of the SP then it all works fine!!! I tried taking out all the BEGIN TRANS from the SPs and inner SPs involved but still the same problem. I am a bit new to the whole .NET thing, and while I like using it a lot, things that should be simple are really P*£"ing me off. Any help about what to look for or check would be much appreciated.

    - Merge dataset into query call in dataadapter???? Hi everybody - This may seem like an easy question to the .NET gurus out there but it has me very much stumped on how to accomplish. I have a dataset that I have merged together from separate queries. What I want is to include it in my final query so I can include other fields but I'm trying to do a join on certain fields in this dataset I've generated. How can I accomplish this? So for example, I'd like to do something like this: Select FirstName, dsQueryC.InitDate From Employee INNER JOIN dsQueryC etc......

    - Create XSD Dataset with child table in two nested relations. It's a commonly known problem that XSD.exe cannot parse the following XML into either an xsd file or class <Data><One><File><Name>Test1</Name></File></One><Two><File><Name>Test2</Name></File></Two></Data Because it can't cope with the fact that the <File> element appears in two places (the Custom tool error: Unable to convert input xml file content to a DataSet. The same table (*TableName*) cannot be the child table in two nested relations. error). The MS provided tool "Infer.exe" WILL create an .xsd schema for this XML, but doesn't provide a way to generate a strongly-typed DataSet for it. Can anyone point me to a good workaround? There must be some way (other than me creating the typed DataSet completely manually) that I can get a repeated element into a DataSet using the XSD tool combined with some custom code. Any ideas would be appreciated Richard Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73446

    - Web Services with large datasets I'm designing an app that will need to run in environment where different data is on different DB servers and OS'es (SQL Server, Oracle, Windows, AS400 etc). My app will need to pull together data from a few separate databases and then run some reports on the data. My original thinking was that XML and webservices would be the route to go. I could have someone provide a webservice that would give me some XML that I could turn into a dataset to be analyzed to create the reports. This is great in theory, but when I look at the sizes of the XML files, I'm not so sure. Webservices seem to be better suited to passing around small datasets or scalar values. How to people generally deal with this? Is the XML file size less of an issue than it seems to me? Or, do I need to look at figuring out a way to get a more direct connection to datasources in cases like this (i.e. reporting)? I know on the DB end I can quickly switch providers, but the SQL for one DB backend never seems to translate to a different DB backend, so you're stuck modifying much of the SQL too.

    - Navigating a dataset 'randomly' Hello, I retrieve all the Ids from a DB table. The 'current' Id is used to retrieve all the columns associated with that Id. I need to Move Next and Move Previous. The DBEnumerator is a Forward-only tool. A "For Each Row" solution would enclose nearly the entire application in the loop and still would not work. Since a "Find" is supported, maintaining a Global index to step through the rows collection would not be effective. There are upwards of 14,000 rows in the table, so I am not eager to use an array. I must use a Web Service and ADO.NET disconnected datasets. How does one navigate forward and backward relative to the current row without knowing the index (or can we learn the index?

    - UNION statement with run-time queries. Greetings all - I'm fairly new to working with UNION queries within ASP/VB .NET and I'm struggling with trying to find suggestions on how to implement a solution to this issue. I'm developing 4 queries .........1 from 1 data source, 1 from a separate data source, 1 to UNION the first two together and the last to query against the 3rd query to populate into a Crystal Report (which I haven't figured out how I'm going to accomplish yet). Since I'm running these queries in the code-behind as run time queries, is it even possible to run a UNION statement in this setup without having issues with the FROM clauses in the UNION since I'm wanting to pull from the data tables in the first 2 datasets that I have created already? If I try to fill them, wouldn't it error when it reads the FROM clause tables? Any thoughts are greatly appreciated at this point.

    - OdbcConnection in Multithreading Hey, Hi all friends!!! I've got an application which executes an stored procedure using an OdbcCommand object, but it has to executes several stored procedures at the same time, so i decided use multithreading, so that the application creates a thread for each stored procedure and start it in this way class ClassWithMethod { public void MyMethod() { //here stored procedure executes } } class Test { static public Main (string[] args) { ClassWithMethod obj = new ClassWithMethod(); Thread myThread = new Thread (new ThreadStart (obj.MyMethod)); myThread.Start(); } } But in the application a new thread is created each time an event happens, and each time a thread is created the application is creating a new OdbcConnection (ODBC 'cause it uses a Sybase 10 database) and it is closing the connection in the finally block of the method MyMethod (describe before) but, to close the connection the application is verifying that the connection it is gonna close be an open connection, if it is not an open connection it throws an exception, and my problem is that this exception i mentioned is throwing in some cases, i.e. just in some cases, i.e. in some thread which the connection is trying to be closed, the application detects that this connection of this thread is closed. So, anyone can undarstand why is happennig this??? or is there a better or more efficcient way to manage connections in multithreading???? Any help i will thank!!! Regards!!!!

    - Problem with RichTextBox and Access Db I have an application that gets data from a Access database and displays it on a form. I have a slightly odd and annoying problem that stems from the fact that the program I'm replacing with my program was writing in VBA in Access. The problem is that the RichTextBox control in Access uses '/n/b' as an end of line character while the RichTextBox in C#.NET uses just '/n'. The reason why this is a problem is because it tricks my app into thinking that a field has been changed because between moving the data from the database to my RichTextBox control and then back to the database again all the end of line characters get changed. Now dealing with this would be very simple, but I have code that checks each control and tries to determine if really has changed before updating the dataset and I want a solution that is very general and doesn't require me to cludge up my program with a lot of checks for this one case. Any ideas? Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73413

    - Handling SqlException during DataAdapter.Update I am using ADO.NET datasets to transfer information between my client and business logic. When I fill the dataset and some dataset contraint is triggered, then the FillError event is triggered, that can be handled. My database contains some constraints that can be triggered when propagating the dataset changes back to the database. I use the SqlDataAdapter.Update to send this information to the database. Unfortunately, there is no UpdateError event that can be handled. I would have liked an event for these errors that specify the datatable, row and SqlException (a bit like the FillErrorEventArgs). I have created a workaround, but this looks horrible. I call the dataadapter's Update method and catch the SqlException. Then I will iterate through the dataset and find the first non-Unchanged row. That should have been the row that has failed. Things become even more complex when relational datasets are being updated, because they are updated in a different order. When a UpdateError event would have existed, then this would have been much more easy. Now I investigate the SqlException by checking the message number and parsing the message string. I don't like this behaviour, but I don't think there is a better way. Anyone have a suggestion? Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73410

    - Connecting to SQL Server DB Hi all, I'm missing something, probably stupid, on connecting to a SQL Server database from an aspx file. I haven't really done much w/ SQL Server and suspect that it's a problem on that side. I've installed the SQL Server developer edition locally and do have a pubs database.

Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. (w/Windows-only Authentication) or Login failed for user 'sa'. (Windows and SQL Server Authentication) I have been able to create a connection through VFP (though using ODBC). The connection string it creates is: DSN=SQLServer1;UID=sa;PWD=admin;APP=Microsoft Visual FoxPro;WSID=J2K, which indicates to me that the sa/admin login is correct (which is what Iset at installation).

    - Viewing Binary Image from SQL ! This is a multi-part message in MIME format ------=_NextPart_000_75830417 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi ! I wonder if there is a simple solution to how to dynamically view an image from a SQL DB. It´s a binary file and the insertfunction into SQL works fine. I can easily view all the text from the SQL DB. I can also view the image separatly. I load the text in a separate file : details.aspx I load the image in another file : showpic.aspx In the details.aspx file I put an <img> tag to the showpic.aspx as follows: <asp:Image id="Image" runat="server" ImageUrl="showpic.aspx?id=22"></asp:Image> In the above example the imagefile is static "id=22". How can I make it dynamic so that the "id" changes when I click on details in the Datagrid? How does the syntax look like ? Help much needed !

In case of any error it restores the database from the backup (also via SQLDMO). Problem is, when I want to do the Restore after an Error, the Restore fails with the following error message "Exclusive access could not be obtained". I have made sure that all ADO.NET Commands close their respective connections (via the using statement) so what am I missing here? If I don't issue any ADO.NET Commands the Restore works just fine.

Let say i have 2 types defined as being OBJECT1 and OBJECT2 (2 being different kind offinancial transaction) They are totally different and do not share any field exceot there ID. Which makes that any kind of finanacial transaction will have a different ID as for exemple, let say i have transaction 1: OBJECT1, ID:00001 transaction 1: OBJECT1, ID:00001 transaction 1: OBJECT1, ID:00001 transaction 1: OBJECT1, ID:00001 Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73344

    - Oracle.DataAccess.dll Failover Event I'm working on a DAC wrapper around ODP.NET 9.2.0.4 and ran into a problem with Oracle's "Transparent Application Failover" (TAF) implementation. The data provider never seems to raise the Failover event. I've written a console app that loops until you tell it to stop. It calls a connection helper like this: OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(connectionString); conn.Open(); // register failover handler conn.Failover += new OracleFailoverEventHandler(OnFailover); // create the command OracleCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand(); cmd.CommandText = "select sysdate, userenv('SESSIONID') as sid from dual"; cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text; // execute reader and write to console OracleDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader(); if (dr.Read()) { string sysdate = ((DateTime)oDr["SYSDATE"]).ToLongTimeString(); string sid = dr["sid"].ToString(); Console.WriteLine(sysdate + " on session " sid); } dr.Close(); conn.Close(); The event is caught in: public FailoverReturnCode OnFailover(object sender, OracleFailoverEventArgs e) { // do something } The test writes out the date just fine on each loop. So then with my admin tool I execute "ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION {args}" where "args" is SID and Serial# of the app's connection. Then on the next loop I expect ODP.NET to raise the Failover event for the killed connection. But instead it raises OracleException 28 (session has been killed). (It then increases the pool size accordingly; 5 by default unless you overload the connection string.) I've spent several hours simulating various connection errors (like 3113 by disconnecting from the LAN) and never does ODP.NET raise the Failover event. Does anyone know more about this or conducted similar tests? Tag: Programmatic access to control in DataGrid HeaderTemplate Tag: 73336

    - database connection configuration Hello All - I've got a couple of .NET Windows forms that have associated OleDbDataAdapters and OleDbConnection. What is the best approach to implementing a method for configuring the location of the underlying data source. I would like to be able to toggle (in code) between Development, Test, and Production databases. Lets say for example: dev db: "c:\databases\dev\myDB.mdb" test db: "s:\databases\test\myDB.mdb" prod db: "s:\databases\prod\myDB.mdb" It seems like I need to set the connection's DataSource property prior to establishing a connection. But if the connection is associated with the form, how can I configure the connection in code prior to loading the form? Thanks!

FindControls does not work for a server control in a DataGrid
HeaderTemplate.

Doing the following:

<DataGridName>.FindControl("<controlId>")

This brings back null for a HtmlInputCheckBox or a CheckBox Web control.

How do you programmatically access a server control in the header of an
DataGrid? Or can you?

Thanks,
Tommy.
