Jun 20, 2012I have a window application created in VB.net 2005 and the backend is sql. I make a call to the database and it returns a datatable. When I loop through it, I get a value of -1 for my field "Rush" which is a bit datatype. when I pass the sql into the analyzer, I see the value should be a 1 so not sure why it's giving me a -1.

Asp.net - Implied Datatype With DIM Statement - Breaking Change From .net 2.0 To 3.5?
May 17, 2012I'm converting a asp.net application from .NET 2.0 to .NET 3.5 I have loads of inline code like so:
Dim Total = 0
for each dr as DataRow in dt.Rows
Total = Total + dr("SumOfAmount")
next
Response.Write(FormatCurrency(Total,2))
Notice that there is no explicit type declaration of the total variable.This code worked fine under .NET 2.0 Under .NET 3.5, the Total variable is defined as an Integer, therefore the total is being rounded to the nearest dollar on every pass.I know one solution is just to change
Dim Total = 0
to either
Dim Total as decimal = 0
or
Dim Total = 0D
However I'd prefer to not have to visit every page in the system looking for this problem.Is there any site wide, or page wide option I can set the change this behavior back to the way it was under .NET 2.0?

View 3 RepliesVS 2005 Change A Datatype In Access, Datagrid Doesn't Work
Aug 18, 2010
I have a VS2005 utility that I'm working on that has an Access 2003 backend. A couple of days ago, my boss asked that I change one field in two tables from TEXT to MEMO, to allow more information to be put in. In doing some final pre-deployment testing, I find when I hit my button to pull up the list of tickets, I get the error
"System.Data.ConstraintException was unhandled
Message="Failed to enable constraints. One or more rows contain values violating non-null, unique, or foreign-key constraints.""
The datagrid is based on a query I have in the database. The query runs fine, and when I go through the XSD and go into Query Builder, the QB is also returning data. I have made the various changes to the utlity as suggested by Microsoft, but no luck. When I put the two columns back to TEXT, the Grid works fine.
How the heck do I set it up so that the grid will recognise the new data format? The number of characters for the individual columns is set to 37,627 (I believe, it's whatever the default is). I only have 200 characters in my test data. I need to rebuild the whole dataset - this deployment has to be done by the end of the day tomorrow and I have a whole pile of other stuff left to do.

I want to enter all the data in the form and have that data automatically transferred as a group to the spreadshet in the upper part of the page when I press a button.I know that there's an insert function.I set it up correctly.

Change Value In Datagridview Or Datatable?
Jun 21, 2010I'm selecting value from my database, passing it to datatable then giving DataGridView.DataSource value of datatable.The thing is that in those rows i'm also selecting some dates and problem is that my default date in database is '1900-01-01 00:00:00' because i use "smalldatetime". And what i want is this...when I find default value in database i want to show it like an empty string, like i said...because date is in smalldatetime format i can't do this in SQL query so i wonder how can I change this in DataTable or even better in DataGridView...of course, in code?
View 4 RepliesVS 2008 Datatable Unchanged After Change
May 28, 2010I have a datagridview bound to a datatable via a dataview. The user is allowed to edit cells in the datagridview, thereby editing cells in the datatable. I recently found that if the user editted a cell, then closed the form without ever clicking on a different cell (thereby causing the current cell to commit), the change was vanishing because the editted contents of the cell were not being saved back to the datatable.
This was only happening if the user closed the form. Clicking on any other control on the form also caused the cell changes to commit. After rooting abut in the DGV properties, it appeared that all I needed to do is add the following code to the Form Closing event handler:
If Me.dgvCurrentRedds.IsCurrentCellDirty Then
Me.dgvCurrentRedds.CommitEdit(DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit)
End If
Sure enough, this caused the change to be registered in the underlying datatable. However, it was then getting obliterated by a different process, so I went looking for the source of that problem, and eventually tracked it down to this:
While the preceding code is causing the datatable to receive the new information, the datarow that has been changed still has the status Unchanged, even though it should have the status Modified since it actually has been modified. The fact that it appears unchanged causes some other code to obliterate the change, but that's irrelevant.
The question is, why is the row status UnChanged when it certainly has been Changed, and is there any sound way to force the row status to update?

Change Datatable Fill Or Get Command Text?

So I would like to tell it what to SELECT instead of getting the whole table and then applying a filter.If there's a way of doing that without changing the fill command, it will also work for me.

Jan 24, 2012I'm pulling data from my DB, adding it to a DataTable and binding that DataTable to my DataGridView. Before I bind the data, I need to change/remove some data. When I loop through the rows and use a Select Case, just for this column, it doesn't work. But if I use an If, it works fine. [Code] In the example above, the "Pass_Flag" row works just fine, but the "FailureCD" does not. But after the Select, with the If statement, it works. In the example, I'm casting the row as a string first and then an integer. I tried casting to an integer in the select case and it doesn't work either.
