    - Timeout error when filling an OleDbDataAdapter Hi, In a ReadCommited transaction I update a row 'A' in a table. Before the transaction ends, another transaction is trying to read ANOTHER row 'B' from the same table and fill a dataset using an OleDbDataAdapter but it seems to be locked and I get a timeot error. Using sp_lock I can see that for row 'A' the table is locked in X mode, type KEY (the table and the page are IX locked), for row 'B' the lock is KEY type and S mode and the status is WAIT. If I try to get data from the row 'B' with an OleDbCommand.ExecuteScalar there is no problem (so, as far as I can understand means that the row itself is not locked), but I cannot get the data with and OleDbDataAdapter.Fill. Is it not possible to do that? Thanks -- Message posted via http://www.dotnetmonster.com Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103912

    - How to update dataset with multiple tables in C#? I create 2 tables, ParentTable and ChildTable. The row in ChildTable is referenced to ParentTable. But after updated and saved to database, the row in ChildTable doesn't refer to the correct row in ParentTable. You can see the following example to get the problems. Is there any good way to update multiple tables by using SqlDataAdapter.Update()? Thank you /* New Rows in ParentTable and ChildTable * * ------ParentTable------ * ID Animal * 1 Cat * * * ------ChildTable------ * ID NAME ParentID * "1 small cat 1" */ /* * But after the new rows saved back to the database, the new rows saved wrongly as: * * ------ChildTable------ * ID NAME ParentID * 1 small bird 1 * 2 small dog 2 * 3 small cat 1 =====> The ParentID doesn't dynamically change to 3 but keep the same as 1. * This makes it doen't reference to the correct row in ParentTable */ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I try to use 2 different ways to update tables. But they both result in the same problem. The first way I use is to follow the update sequence recommended by book: adapter1= new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from ChildTable", con); SqlDataAdapter adapter2= new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from ParentTable", con); SqlCommandBuilder sb = new SqlCommandBuilder(adapter1); SqlCommandBuilder sb1 = new SqlCommandBuilder(adapter2); adapter1.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ChildTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.Deleted)); adapter2.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ParentTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.Deleted)); adapter2.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ParentTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.ModifiedCurrent)); adapter2.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ParentTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.Added)); adapter1.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ChildTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.ModifiedCurrent)); adapter1.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ChildTable"].Select(null, null, DataViewRowState.Added)); ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2nd way is to use 2 SqlDataAdapter seperately to update tables, but still get the same problem : The Child table row "3 small cat 1" is wrong adapter1= new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from ChildTable", con); SqlDataAdapter adapter2= new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from ParentTable", con); SqlCommandBuilder sb = new SqlCommandBuilder(adapter1); SqlCommandBuilder sb1 = new SqlCommandBuilder(adapter2); adapter1.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ChildTable"]); adapter2.Update(NewDataSet.Tables["ParentTable"]); Please refer to the UpdateTableMethod1() and UpdateTableMethod2() in the codes I provide. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I just put some codes on the website.

    - NullReferenceException in call to DataTable Select I'm trying to use the Select() method on a DataTable but I'm getting a NullReferenceException. Here's the stack trace: at System.Data.Select.Evaluate(Int32 record) at System.Data.Select.FindFirstMatchingRecord() at System.Data.Select.GetBinaryFilteredRecords() at System.Data.Select.SelectRows() at System.Data.DataTable.Select(String filterExpression, String sort) I've found a work-around but I can't explain why it works. The work around is to call the Select() method once first without a filter argument, then to call it again with the actual filter argument you're interested in. Like this: DataRow[] records = ds.Tables["MyTable"].Select("", "C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, ID"); //note the empty string as the filter records = ds.Tables["MyTable"].Select(myFilter, "C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, ID"); //myFilter contains the actual filter value And for some reason the sorting string to the first Select() call has to be the same string that's used in the second Select() call. So doing this wouldn't work: DataRow[] records = ds.Tables["MyTable"].Select(""); records = ds.Tables["MyTable"].Select(myFilter, "C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, ID"); The reason I discovered this work-around is that if you copy and paste the entire call to the Select() method into one of the debugger watch windows, you'll get a message stating the same null reference exception as the value of the expression. But if you replace the filter with "" in the Select() call in the watch window, it will return the correct result as the expression value. Then if you step through the actual code it works (it doesn't throw the exception)! It's like the DataTable needs to be re-initialized before you can call the Select() method, even if you do it in the debugger watch window. Does anyone have any ideas about what's going on here?

    - Optimizing multiple rows storing into Access 2003. Need Help! Hi I am looking for a way to optimize my data storing into an Access 2003 Table (the mdb file I am using is Access 2000 version) oleDbDataAdapter seem to write one row at time even if it receives multiple rows I tried this code below CalBackFunc() <- My call back func is called every second approx { ...... TypedDataSet1.Merge(?? ) //<- My main dataset in updated here if(CycleCount>20) { CycleCount=0; //<- Every 20 times I make an update into the //- database to reduce the I/O stuff MyDt=new MyTypedDataSet(); MyDt.Merge(TypedDataSet1.MyTable1.GetChanges()); <- I copy //the new data here TypedDataSet1.MyTable1.AcceptChanges(); oleDbDataAdapter1.Update(MyDt.MyTable1); <-I make my storing into the database here with 20 rows each time } } This don't seem to work as I want it; I am looking if there is an auther way to store multiple rows in the same time into Access database. Maybe like storing into an xml file and periodically store it back to the database in one shot. Could some one tell me how can I optimize this kind of storing, it would be very healpful.

    - Re: DataAdapter problems... OK I have made a little progress on this.... Seems I was missing: dataset.Tables[0].AcceptChanges(); However, this alone did not fix it.... I needed to manually assign the value from the 'bound' textbox, by doing... dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Name"]=boundtextbox.Text.ToString(); This seems odd to me... as the textbox appears bound to the datatable, but when I change the value, it doesn't seem to be writing back properly.... although a MessageBox.Show(dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Name"].ToString()); shows the correct value... it doesn't have the same (required) effect until I specifically assign the value in code.

    - DataAdapter problems... Hi I have a dataset which consists of a datatable. I make changes to the data in the datatable, via the use of a bound textbox. When debugging, I output the value of: dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Name"].ToString() and this reflects the correct value that I want. However, the dataadapter does not seem to recognise the change, and doesn't update the underlying table back to the DB. However, if I specifically set the value of the DB, via dataset.Tables[0].Rows[0]["Name"]="aaaaa"; then all seems to work fine..... Any ideas??

    - SQL Server Error Trapping in ASP/ASP.NET I've run into an odd bit of behavior when dealing with SQL Server 2000 and ASP/ASP.NET that I wanted to discuss. The issue I encounter is that in a stored procedure, once a SELECT statement succeeds and returns a recordset, all resulting errors are ignored by ASP/ASP.NET in certain cases (see details below). Wouldn't you expect the ADO/ADO.NET command to fail if the procedure it calls fails? For example, I created a simple stored procedure that is meant to fail after successfully returning a recordset. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CREATE PROCEDURE spt_TestSqlErrors @ErrMsg VARCHAR(255) = '' OUTPUT AS --SUCCEEDS returns a recordset SELECT 'Test' AS FirstName, 'User' AS LastName --SUCCEEDS but does not return a recordset DECLARE @SelectResults VARCHAR(255) SELECT @SelectResults = FirstName FROM tblUsers WHERE UserID = 12345 --SUCCEEDS but updates 0 records UPDATE tblPerson SET ID=0 WHERE 1=0 --FAILS divide by zero SELECT 12/0 AS DivisionError --SUCCEEDS and raises an error SET @ErrMsg = 'Error Message.' RAISERROR(@ErrMsg, 16, 1) WITH LOG GO -------------------------------------------------------------------------- With ASP.NET Command.ExecuteNonQuery - will return an error (Divide By Zero) Command.ExecuteDataReader - will not return an error (Divide By Zero) Adapter.Fill - will return an error (Divide By Zero) With ASP Command.ExecuteNonQuery - err object does not register an error Recordset.Open - err object does not register an error Use whatever hypothetical situation you like to explain why a stored procedure would return multiple recordsets and would raise an error if the second recordset didn't exist. Wouldn't you expect the DivideByZero or Raiserror to roll up to ASP and ASP.NET in all situations and not be ignored by the ExecuteDataReader or by ASP completely? What do you think?

    - TableMappings Hi, I got a problem by putting 3 SELECT statements in one DataAdatper. I try to build a 'Select' DataAdatper, which only has select command. I put following lines in select commandtext Select * from Orders; Select * from OrderProducts; Select * from Products; I use DataAdapter wizard. DataAdapter wizard will generate 3 tables automatically like Table, Table1, Table2. Then I go to set table mappings like Table --> Orders, Table1-->OrderProducts, and Table2 ---> Products. It seems work find until I try to remove 2nd select. After I remove 2nd Select, my table mappings are all messed up, Table-->Orders, Table1-->OrderProducts. It is wrong. I thought if I remove 2nd Select, 2nd tab mapping should be remove too. In fact, I am wrong. So my question is how to let TabMappings be synchronized when a Select commad is removed.

    - Constructing a Dataset from XML I have an XML file I've created in another application that contains information on files, forms, and job header. My plan is, in my new "consumer" app, to read in this data and work with it, ultimately producing labels for shipping, etc. My planned approach is to construct a Dataset with 3 DataTables from this data: One table for job header; one table for form info; and one table for specific records. Then I want to set up one-to-many relations from the top, down. It's probably the SQL Server programmer in me that I'm taking this approach, am I overthinking it? Should I just stick with a flat DataTable? Would a collection be a better choice? What benefits will I get from the DataRelations? If I set up a DataGrid on my form, can I easily display, say, Job Number | Form Code | Record Filename, etc.? In other words, if I'm not creating a database on some other server, do I benefit by going to the trouble of normalizing the data in this way? I'd appreciate any comments. -- Michael Kellogg Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103835

    - Why does first reader.Read take all time in stead of command.ExecuteReader? Hi All, I am using CoreLab.Oracle.dll (2.40.2.0) to access an Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production server. In C#, I am using CoreLab classes to access the database. Typically, I create a command object of CommandType StoredProcedure and open a reader on it. The Procedure returns a ref cursor. I am surprised to see that the command.ExecuteReader() takes little time (e.g. 0.1 s) to complete, while the first reader.Read() takes much more time (e.g. 10 s). In fact, if I execute the procedure some other way (SQL editor in Toad), execution time is comparable to the time reader.Read takes. I do not think that command.ExecuteReader works asynchronously, since putting the thread to Sleep for 10 seconds does not help reader.Read to complete faster. Does anybody know why this is so? Also, how does this combine with the Command.Cancel method? I cannot execute command.Cancel while reader.Read is working. How could I use command.Cancel properly? See below for details. Thanks in advance, Roel Schreurs // Sample code OracleDataReader reader = null; OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection("<ConnectionString>"); conn.Open(); OracleCommand command = conn.CreateCommand(); command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; command.CommandText = "<Package>.<Procedure>"; OracleParameter parameter = command.CreateParameter(); parameter.OracleDbType = OracleDbType.RefCursor; parameter.ParameterName = "<CursorVariable>"; parameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; command.Parameters.Add(parameter); Debug.WriteLine("Starting ExecuteReader at " + System.DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay); reader = command.ExecuteReader(); Debug.WriteLine("Finished ExecuteReader at " + System.DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay); //Optional Thread.Sleep(10000); Debug.WriteLine("Starting first Read at " + System.DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay); while (reader.Read()) { Debug.WriteLine("Finished Reading at " + System.DateTime.Now.TimeOfDay); } -- Results: Starting ExecuteReader at 15:07:58.063 Finished ExecuteReader at 15:07:58.188 0.125 Starting first Read at 15:07:58.203 0.016 Finished first Read at 15:08:07.922 9.719 Starting ExecuteReader at 15:04:27.859 Finished ExecuteReader at 15:04:27.984 0.125 Starting first Read at 15:04:38.000 10.016 Finished first Read at 15:04:47.688 9.688 Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103823

    - Copying a table in ADO.net and the pesky identity column I am finding problems in trying to copy a databse table from one SQL 2000 server to another using ADO.net. However the source table has an identity column and I need to preserve the values in the destination table. Obviously every time I run the below code the destination table does not have the correct identity column. For Each objDataRow In dsSource.Tables(0).Rows With dsDest.Tables(0) objDBRow = .NewRow() For Each c In .Columns objDBRow(c.ColumnName) = objDataRow(c.ColumnName) Next .Rows.Add(objDBRow) End With ObjCmdBuilder = New SqlCommandBuilder(objAdapter) objAdapter.Update(dsDest, tablename) Next What is the best approach in acheiving this? Bear in mind that the two SQL servers cannot talk to each other so that I cannot use sp_addlinkedserver and use a stored procedure. Am I going about this incorrectly?

    - Synchronize Question I have a situation where I have read only access to an Access database. I need to query the database and insert the rows retrieved into my own database. However there is no gaurantee that the original query won't return rows that I've already inserted into my own database. So my question is what is the best way to handle the situation? Just trap the errors when the insert fails? Query my own database for primary keys and then discard those rows from the original query? Check each row of the original query for existance in my own database before attempting to insert? This is a desktop application which is basically single user so performance isn't of the utmost priority. I'm basically looking for a best practice approach to this problem.

    - ORA-01461 while moving data from sqlserver to oracle I worte a conversion program which moves all data from SqlSrv to Oracle, using the OracleClient and SqlClient classes of .Net. Now when a column has 2001 characters or more I get this error. I've read a lot of it, but I do not fully understand what is wrong, and more important, how it can be solved. I know a lot about SqlServer, but very little about Oracle. I am using a standard SqlDataAdapter, and a OracleDataAdapter. I am using the OracleCommandBuilder to generate the Oracle insertcommand. The conversion method is very straightforward and simple: I open a SqlDataAdapter with a 'Select * from Table' command, and an OracleDataAdapter with the same command. I fill two Datatables using this two adapters, which results in a filled datatable from the sqlserver db, and an empty datatable from the oracle db. Then I simply move all data from the first table to the second, and then I execute the Update methode of the OracleDataAdpater. As said, this is working properly for 99,9% of my database. Only strings with a length of >2000 will fail with the Oracle ORA-01461 exception....:-( Dim strSelect = "selectr * from test" Dim sqlC as new SqlConnection(sqlConnectionString) Dim sqlDa as new SqlDataAdapter(strSelect, sqlC) Dim oraC as new OracleConnection(oraConnectionString) Dim oraDa as new OracleDataAdapter(strSelect, oraC) Dim oraCB as new OracleCommandBuilder(oraDa) Dim sqlDt as new Datatable sqlDa.Fill(sqlDt) Dim oraDy as new DataTable oraDa.Fill(oraDt) Dim oraRow as Datarow For Each sqlRow as Datarow in sqlDt.Rows oraRow = oraDt.NewRow For i as Integer = 0 To sqlDt.Columns.Count - 1 oraRow(i) = sqlRow(i) next oraDt.Rows.Add(oraRow) Next oraDa.Update(oraDt) Currently I have added some extra lines in the inner loop to handle string data (using sqlDt.Columns(i).DataType) and to substring too long strings to a length of 2000 maximum. That's only way I can have this routine error free....:-(( Can anyone help me? Jan van Veldhuizen Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103785

    - Good Practice on ListBox Greetings I want to display a listbox on the form which will include two columns from the data table" FirstName" & "LastName" What I've done now, is modify the DataAdapter to include two additional colums as: [FirstName] + " " +[LastName] As NameFN [LastName] + " " +[FirstName] AS NameLN I've selected NameFN as the DisplayMember of the listbox However, I've also selected the Sort option to be true So what I see on the listbox doesn't correspond to the record selected on the form. The record is selected automatically on the form because my DataSource Property is bound to the dataset object. Is this a good practice ? Or its better to create a dynamic Array List on loadup and use that ? If that is the case how can I make the list selection, make the record on the form change ?

    - How to save/update DataTable when its structure is unknown? Hi all, I would like to have a functionality that saves/updates a given DataTable into the DB while its structure is unknown. I think of 2 possible solutions: 1) to use SqlCommandBuilder - which is very expensive in the runtime (performance issues) 2) constructing my own commands - iterating over the DataTable and construct update, delete and insert commands. In this approach I have a small problem as I don't know the original sql types of the columns and it seems to be an equivalent to the first solution either. Does anybody think/may suggests another solution, approach ? Thanks in advance, Uri Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103783

Everything compiles fine under VS.NET 2002 and 2003. Here is an example: File 1 - PRLEntityGroups.xsd : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <xs:schema id="PRLEntityGroups" targetNamespace="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns:mstns="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <xs:group name="AccessLevelGroup"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="AccessLevelID" type="xs:int" /> <xs:element name="AccessLevelName" type="xs:string" /> </xs:sequence> </xs:group> </xs:schema> File 2 - ImportShape.xsd : <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <xs:schema id="PRLImportShape" targetNamespace="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns:mstns="http://tempuri.org/PRL" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata"> <xs:include schemaLocation="PRLEntityGroups.xsd" /> <xs:element name="ImportShape" msdata:IsDataSet="true"> <xs:complexType> <xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded"> <xs:element name="AccessLevel"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:group ref="AccessLevelGroup" /> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:choice> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:schema> The line that fails is <xs:group ref="AccessLevelGroup" /> in File 2. MSDataSetGenerator tells me AccessLevelGroup is an "undeclared model group". However, I have included the XSD file containing this declaration and both xsd are using the same Root namespace. Again, this worked fine in VS.NET 2002 and 2003. Any help on figuring out a work around would be helpful. I could declare the types within each xsd and not include an external xsd with all my type definitions, but that would be a waste of time. The point is to be able to include external xsd files and use those types defined in the external xsd files. Thanks! Tag: db file lock problem, permissions help Tag: 103781

    - Lock Table In a SQL Server 2000 Database I have a Table which is shared by many users. I have a VB.NET Procedure which contains many calls to Stored Procedures and ADO.Net Commands to clear and update this shared table. What I would like to do at the start of this lengthly procedure is to place an exclusive lock on the table until the whole procedure has finished running all its separate update statements. Then I will unlock it. If another user runs the same procedure while the table is locked by the first then I would like a message displayed to say that "the table is in use, Please try again later." Is there an easy way to achieve all of this? It would be difficult to put all the update commands in the same transaction as different connections are used.
