    - Questions about the DataSet/DataTable Hello, I have a DataSet with lots of data in it, there is no database just the DataSet. In the DataTable contained by the DataSet there is a field Category. I would like to get the different Categories out of that DataSet, so no duplicates. With SQL this would be very easy, SELECT DISTINCT or Group By should do the job, but I don't suppose you can run SQL against a dataset can you ? Is there another way to select distinct values from a column in a DataTable ? If it held A B B A C E F A G F G H I would only like to get A B C E F G H back. Thnx.

    - Master/Detail dataset fill I hava a typed dataset with 2 tables and a relation (master/detail). I have an dataadapter to fill the master table (with a select and a parameter) and now I want fill the second table with another dataadapter, but I don't know how I have to define the select sentence to populate it only with the records that have relation with the master table. How can I do this? After filling the dataset, I insert a new row in the master table (it has an autonumeric Key field simulate with sequences in Oracle), and then I insert new rows in the detail table. How can I controll the update to insert the autonumeric key genereted in the master table in the detail table? A lot of thanks, Alex B. Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81564

    - SQL to ACCESS via VB.NET/ADO.NET I have populated a data table (dtHeader) from a SQL database using a SQL Data Adapter. I have an Access table (header) with the same fields as the SQL table. I want to populate the Access table with the data in the data table. The data table contains information from multiple SQL tables with teh same schema. I am currently attempting to run an InsertCommand from an OleDB DataAdapter for each row of the data table to get teh data into Access 1 row at a time. I ahve to do this for 5 tables andit is going to be a lot of code to create and assign values to all of the parameters. Is there an easier way to populate the Access table, with all of the data tables rows at once even? ---------------------------------------- Dim sdaROW as new SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter, cmdSQL as New SqlClient.SqlCommand Dim conOLE as new Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection, cmdOLE as new OleDb.OleDbCommand Dim odaROW as new OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter, odrROW as OleDb.OleDbDataReader conOLE.ConnectionString = sConString conOLE.Open() ' Populate the data table with the SQL data sdaROW.SelectCommand = new SqlClient.SqlCommand with sdaROW .SelectCommand.Connection = scnFD .SelectCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM " & sSelectSQL .Fill(dtHeader) .SelectCommand = nothing end with sdaROW = nothing odaROW.InsertCommand = new OleDb.OleDbCommand odaROW.InsertCommand.Connection = conOLE odaROW.InsertCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO header (guid, parentguid) VALUES (?,?)" odaROW.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("guid",OleDb.OleDbType.Guid,64,"guid") odaROW.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("parentguid",OleDb.OleDbType.Guid,64,"pa rentguid") for iCounter = 0 to dtHeader.Rows.Count - 1 odaROW.InsertCommand.Parameters.Item("guid") = dtHeader.Rows(iCounter).Item("guid") odaROW.InsertCommand.Parameters.Item("parentguid") = dtHeader.Rows(iCounter).Item("parentguid") odaROW.InsertCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() next iCounter Tag: How to create unique identity columns?

    - very simple question, but i cant find the answer Hello, I am trying to write a generic tool that accesses a SQL server and reads/updates/deletes/creates records. I want to reference this tool from my asp.net pages to talk to my db. by the way, i want the results of any read, update and create to be returned in xml. when reading data, i populate a dataset with data and then use the dataset.getxml method to return xml. is this a neat way of reading data? how does it compare to the FOR XML EXPLICIT command in sql server? when creating/updating data i was thinking of using a data adapter but this seems a bit over the top, maybe i am wrong? should a data adapter be used when doing bulk updates? For example, when editing a data grid there may be many rows that have been updated, so the data adapter can be used to filter out the rows that have changed and update the db. For my scenario i will probably only be updating a single row at a time, so should i just use a simple command object to build a query and update the db like that? i hope i have made myself clear in what i am trying to acheive and what my concerns are. i am new to ado.net so i am just trying to find out the best way of doing things. many thanks.

    - Use a DataTable in place of a HashTable I have been using a HashTable to store name/value pairs, but now I need to add a third element (name/value/flag). I still need to be able to index by ["Name"], and I'd like to keep lookup speed as high as possible. I'm considering using a DataTable instead of the HashTable since I have to store the values to a database eventually anyway. It seems like the DataTable can do what the HashTable is doing in this case, but I'm concerned about efficiency. Does anyone happen to know the tradeoffs in using the DataTable instead? I was originally considering building both tables at the same time, but that seems unnecessary. Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81541

    - Problem with SqlCommandBuilder.DeriveParameters H I have the following code sqlConnection1.Open() System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand cmd = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand("[SOMEUSER].[PAK_TEST.P_OPEN]", sqlConnection1) cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder.DeriveParameters(cmd) Since I don't know the parameternames in advance I need to call DeriveParameters to fill the Parameters collection on the SqlCommand object. Previously this has not been a problem since the OleDbCommand object does not need to know the name of the parameters. Iâ??m not very happy doing the extra roundtrip to the server getting the parameters, and it does not make it better that DeriveParameters bombs out when the stored procedure name contains periods. As you see in the code I try to derive parameters from [SOMEUSER].[PAK_TEST.P_OPEN] This is a perfectly valid Procedurename. When I call DeriveParameters it throws a System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException with the following message: "Could not find stored procedure ''. When doing a quick watch on the SqlCommand object after the exception I found that CommandText was changed to "[[SomeUser]]..sp_procedure_params_rowset". The same also happens if I try to set the commandtext of the sqlcommand object in designmode. It also magically changes the commandtext from [SOMEUSER].[PAK_TEST.P_OPEN] to [SOMEUSER].[PAK_TEST.[P_OPEN]], which of course is terrible wrong My conclusion is that DeriveParameters totally ignores all delimiters and will therefore never work correctly on stored procedurenames containing periods I guess this is a known problemâ?¦ Do you have a workaround or fix? Btw: Changing the procedure names is not an option Thank Xandu Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81534

    - Access to SQL 2000 I would like to write a program to convert Access tables to SQL 2000 tables. I could certainly write a program which collects each field in the access table and creates a similar field in SQL 2000 and then populates the file, however I am assuming that XML may offer a solution which would require only a few statements.

    - storing data locally? Hi, in a nutshell, is there a quick and efficient way of storing data from a database on each user's machine so that a WinForm application can query/analyze/do whatever it wishes to this local data? the winform app will never need to interact with the original database except the first time it is run - to create the local data files on each user's computer. From then on, each time a user runs the application, the app would be using the local data. I thought of saving the data as XML files... but I am concerned about efficiency. As well, I do not need the files to be viewed through other mediums (web, excel, etc.). Actually, I would prefer it if the local files are NOT viewable in other mediums... only the WinForm application would use the files. If I am able to query data in these local files using SQL (like "select myCol From file1.dat") that would be also be a huge plus.... I also thought of loading a DataSet object then serializing it to a file... any links/advice/help on this? I couldnt really find any specific examples/white papers on serializing data, but I am still looking. Any other suggestions? Thank you. Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81512

    - Adding a datarow to datatable bounded to listbox. Please help! Hi, I have a problem with adding a datarow to datatable that is bounded to listbox. Here is what I am trying to accomplish: 1) Connect to access database and select table into dataset (works fine) 2) Create dataview of that table and bind it to listbox (works fine) 3) Add datarow to datatable containing information from some other source and the added datarow should automatically be displayed in listbox (having problem) 4) Update access table with new information... Here is how I add datarow to my datatable. drTo = dsStudents.Tables("ToStudents").NewRow() drTo("SomeColumn") = ... drTo("SomeColumn2") = ... dsStudents.Tables("ToStudents").Rows.Add(drTo) The thing is that datarow is actually gets added to the datatable but in the listbox it is appears as "blank". Now, if I add a second row after that, the first row now changes from "blank" to the one with information (Student's Name). But, now the second row is displayed as "blank". In other words the number of items that are in listbox are n-1 (1 is blank so total is n) and the number in datatable is n. So what do I need to do to get new added row to be displayed properly? I found a solution, to use this line of code: dsStudents.Tables("ToStudents").AcceptChanges() Now this works fine, however, the RowState changes from added to unmodified and calling Update method of DataAdapter would cause no rows to be updated since all rows are marked as unmodified. Is there another way I can get result that I want without using AcceptChanges() I appreciate your help! Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81511

    - Timeout Expired exception Hi, I have a question regarding the "Timeout Expired" excetpion. We have a database server running SQL 2000, and another computer accessing the database server using ADO.NET (via a CAT 5 cable directly). Occationally, I get a "Timeout Expired" exception tring to access database server. I do notice that the clock on the two computers may be drifted as far away as 6 minutes. Can this contribute to the timeout exception? In the sense of robust programming, what should I do in my code to survive these kind of exceptions?

    - using xsd and datasets with XmlDataDocument I have the following xml: <message> <envelope> <body key="" value="" /> </envelope> </message> I have associated an xsd to this xml in order to use the XmlDataDocument and give me the possibility to access the data through a dataset in the manner below specified: DataSet ds = XmlDataDocument.DataSet; When I try to add an element of type "body" to this xml file, this tag is added to the node "message" while I want to add it to the node "envelope". Here is the code which I use to do this task: DataRow dr = ds.Tables["body"].NewRow(); dr["key"]=126; dr["value"]="example"; ds.Tables["body"].Rows.Add(dr); and here is the resulting xml: <message> <envelope> <body key="" value="" /> </envelope> <body key="126" value="example" /> </message> while I want the following result: <message> <envelope> <body key="" value="" /> <body key="126" value="example" /> </envelope> </message> Last but not least when I try to get the attribute values of the node inserted in the xml by the previous code I don't have any problem even if the xsd doesn't allow a "body" tag out of the "envelope" tag. For example: foreach(DataRow row in ds.Tables["body"].Rows ) { if (row[0].ToString() == "126") { myVariable = row[1].ToString(); break; } } How can I avoid to append the node inserted by code to the root node using the dataset and its related classes ? How can I insert the new node correctly inside the envelope element (always using datasets) ? Every suggestion will be appreciate, thanks in advance Tag: How to create unique identity columns?

    - How to access .edb files I need to access the data in a .edb file, which is the type of database used by the Windows System Resource Manager, natively in my C# application. I can't seem to find a data provider that will connect to it, though. Although the WSRM stores the .edb file in a folder called "Jet DB", none of the existing Jet providers will connect to it (the usual Jet extension is .mdb) Does anyone know how I can access this data? Right now I have to open up the WSRM, manually export the data to a text file, and then work with it from there.

    - Thanks for everyone's feedback Looks like I've got a lot of reading to do : As I understand the concept of Singleton objects, they can only be instantiated once. Then, all other calls to that object rely on that previously created instance. If you have 300 hundred users, and each of them are doing multiple things (i.e. pulling data, executing stored procedures, etc..), and each time some communication to the data layer takes place, it must filter through that ONE instance (the Singleton obj) because IT is set up to be your data access object, then how does this architecture benefit you? Would it not become a bottle-neck due to their being only the one instance of it Tag: How to create unique identity columns? Tag: 81455

    - Trapping SQL Error Generated In Trigger I have a .Net 2003 WinForms application. I have a form that uses a SQLDataAdapter along with a Stored procedure to make inserts to a table in my SQL Server 2000 database. The table has an Instead Of Trigger for Inserts that checks a business rule and either raises an error or makes the insert using the data in the Inserted table When the error is raised in the Trigger, it is not picked up by the SQlDataAdapter. My application procedes like the insert was made, but in actuality the server raised the error and the insert is not made. I also tried placing data in the insert that would pass the business rule but would cause a foreign key constraint violation. In this case the Trigger procedes with the insert using the data in the Inserted table but the insert fails and a foreign key contraint error is raised, but again my DataAdapter does not pick up this error and my application procedes as if the insert was made, even though it was not Does anyone know of a way to configure the DataAdapter so it will pick up errors either raiesed in a trigger or generated during the execution of a SQL statement in a trigger? The trigger is working fine and I have verified this by entering data directly into my SQL Table, in which case the errors are generated and displayed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Multiple statements with one command using System.Data.OracleClient I am writing a dataaccess layer in which am building my SQL statements dynamically. Currently i am using the Oracle classes in System.Data.OracleClient but executing muliple statements does not seem to work. What i try to do is something like INSERT INTO A (.. ) VALUES (:a ); SELECT * FROM A WHERE .. = :a; INSERT INTO B ( ... ) VALUES (:a) so I have one row in my dataset and want to split this row out into multiple tables reading back the record in between to get the values that are updated using triggers. This is no problem using the SqlClient classes but the Oracle implementation does not seem to support this. It seems to be a limitation in the Microsoft implemetation. Did anyone try to get around this problem using anonymous procedures? So for instance BEGIN UPDATE A SET "a" = :a WHERE (a = :OriginalA); SELECT * FROM A WHERE (a = :OriginalA); END; results in the following error "ORA-06550: ... :PLS-00428: In this SELECT-statement an INTO-clausule must be used.

When I create the SQL-String manually' (see example below, for 'boolDynamicSQL = False') everything works fine and the new value is added. But when I try to use Dynamic SQL it always returns an error: ORA-01036: Variablenname/-nummer ungültig (= ORA-01036: Variable name /-number invalid) I could not find any typing error, and the manual SQL-String works fine :-( I've searched lots of internet sites but without access. Also my 'ASP.NET Codebook' states it should be working this way... Anyone any ideas? Could this be caused by single / double quotes? I did not find a setting in Visual Studio.NET to define which quotes .NET should use for the dynamic SQL. But when I replace the single quotes in the manual SQL string with double quotes, it returns 'ORA-00984: column not allowed here ', so not exactly the same error message.

Hallo,
With IDENTITY(1,1) I can create an AutoIncrement Column.
I however need a column with a uniqueidentifier that is created whenever a
new datarow is created.
This is possible with access, but how can I create such a column via SQL?

Hi Thorsten,

Are you talking about columns on server?
Sql server has IDENTITY keyword.

True, but identity works only with int values. There is no way to create
GUIDs.

Hi Thorsten,

Yes, seems that it is missing or at least well hidden.
As a workaround you might create GUIDs in code or use ADOX to create such a
column.
