Checking For NULL Dates In SSRS Custom Code Function?
Jul 7, 2009
I am using following code in rowdatabound fn.
Protected Sub gvwMileStone_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs)
[code]...
ddlEProjectLevels is dropdownlist in edititemtemplate.Whwn i click edit in 1st row ddlEProjectLevels gets loaded with data from database.But in 2nd row dropdownlist does not contain values.Again in 3rd it gets loaded from db.Means in alternate rows,when i click edit dropdownlist(ddlEProjectLevels) doesnot load values.Can anybody help?
I came across the following code recently and would like to optimize it:Public Shared Function ComputeLabel(ByVal Action As Integer, ByVal Flag1 As Boolean, ByVal Flag2 As Boolean) As String
Dim Prefix As String = "" If Flag2 Then Prefix = "Conditional "
I am trying to write a generic function that will check each database parameter to see if it is null, and if so, return DBNull; if not, return the object.So here is my function:
Public Shared Function CheckForNull(ByVal obj As Object) As Object If obj <> Nothing Then Return obj Else Return DBNull.Value End Function
Consider this SSRS value expression :=IIF(First(Fields!MyCol.Value, "MyDataSet")=0, "yes", "no")
MyCol is a Nullable column. I want "yes" to be output only when MyCol equals 0. The code above correctly evaluates to "yes" when MyCol is 0. However, it also evaluates to "yes" when MyCol is Nothing (i.e. NULL in SQL Server). Is this expected behavior ?
I had to resort to the following longer expression to get the desired result :
=IIF(Not(First(Fields!MyCol.Value, "MyDataSet") is Nothing) And First(Fields!MyCol.Value, "MyDataSet")=0, "yes", "no")Is there a shorter version of this which also works ?
Private _PurchaseDelivery as PurchaseDelivery Protected Overrides Sub InsertItem(ByVal index As Integer, ByVal item As PurchaseDeliveryItem)
[Code]....
Which is inside a class which overrides a custom list base. The code is occassionaly throwing an unhandled exception, System.NullReferenceException, on this line when used in production:
If _PurchaseDelivery IsNot Nothing AndAlso _PurchaseDelivery.DefaultSKUBinID.HasValue Then
DeafultSKUBinID is declared as an Integer? (Nullable Int) in the PurchaseDelivery class. I cannot see what might be causing this error, why would this be returning an error?
I would like to pass a value and add to it with the previous value thats what I want.The below code doesn't work...I can't understand the problem..Actually its for rdlc - total purpose I need it.My Code
public MyValue as Decimal=0 public Function AddToSum(ByVal quantity as Decimal) as Decimal MyValue=AddToSum+quantity AddToSum=MyValue return AddToSum
Basically, I have a list of dates in a SQL table with some statistics next to each of them. I want to compare the dates in the table with a certain date I choose. However, my dates in my table are stored as Varchar(50) (and have to be). Apparently I can convert the date in the table into date type but I don't know. Does anyone know how? My current code can be seen below.
I wrote a custom assembly for SSRS that returns a jpeg for the background image in a textbox on the report.I followed all instructions on msdn in regards to security but i still receive the same error.
I've got a DataGridView that has a column that will show dates/times this column needs to be sortable so I use this to tell the DGV that it is storing Date type objects (so that sorting works fine automatically):[code]Now the problem is that there will be some records shown in this DGV that do not have a value for this date column. How can I display this? If I dont set a value for that column or I set it to Nothing then the cell just shows the minimum date value (01/01/1601).Oh and this DGV is not using data binding if that makes any difference. Perhaps this might be a good time for me to investigate this data binding lark though if that will help with this issue? I'm sure I recall seeing something about being able to use one value but display another value when you use data binding thats all.
I am reading dates from a table in a database to display in a DataGridView column that is formatted as a date. The problem is that when the value is null in the database my program errors out because it cant convert the value to a date. How do you guys handle this? *Edit: If I set the value of my date variable to "Nothing" it displays as "1/1/0001" in my DataGridView, and I would like the cell to be empty for the null dates.
checking im my textbox contains null valuefor example i have ten textbox how do i know if a textbox has no text in it?then gotfocus to that specific textbox?
I'm using Visual Basic .NET to work with a USB HID device.Most of the time, I can receive data from it perfectly... but one out of every thousand transfers or so, my code will think it has received data when it actually hasn't.The device writes to an array of bytes. I wanted to check to see if the received packet is empty, by doing something like this:
If myDevice.dataPacket(1) <> Nothing then myDevice.rxDataReady = False
Is there anyway to check for a null here before it reaches this part of the code? tmpLabelData(0) = m_node.Item("CONTAINER_NAME").InnerText. Some XML has it while others do not. I cant seem to find a nice way to handle a null on these?
I'm querying a SQL DB and sometimes the result is Null, so I thought I would test this but my code results in an error "Data is Null. This method or property cannot be called on Null values."
Here is a snipet of my code: For i = 5 To 6 cmd = New MySqlCommand(query2t & i, db) rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader() rdr.Read() If Not IsDBNull(rdr.GetUInt32(0)) Then [Code] ......
I have some code that is meant to check the length of the values in the text boxes, and if any of the boxes has no content the length of the string is 0 (or null). Here is the code:
If (Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl48.Value) Or Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl49.Value) Or _ Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl50.Value) Or Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl51.Value) Or _
[code]....
When one string is blank, the length check becomes "null" and so does the whole statement.But if the length checks are all not null, the if statement becomes a "1" and then procedes to execute the Do X procedure again.
Having problems with null dates in a mysql table. Have eventually found out that I can store a 'null' date in mysql as "0000-00-00" and I can run the 'insert' command to add a record to the mysql table. When I check on mysql workbench I can see the row has been inserted correctly and the date shows as "0000-00-00".However...When I try to load the table into a datagridview, I get an error = mysql Conversion Exception was unhandled = "Unable to convert MySQL date/time value to System.DateTime".
I keep getting the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an Object" on the below highlighted line of code and I understand why. It's because I'm checking for something that hasn't even been initialized yet. My question is, what's the best way to check a DataTables row count without getting that error before refilling it?
If Not ds.Tables("tblNotes").Rows(0).IsNull(0) Then ds.Tables("tblNotes").Rows.Clear() End If adp.Fill(ds, "tblNotes")
I'm working with a database application and i want to check if there is a null value in a specific column but it works only when its not null but if its null it throws an exception automatically. I tried to change the null value property of this column but I'm not able it shows a message that its not a valid property. I tried to change the source code in the code editor but it changes back automatically. Is there a way that I can work around this?
I constantly find myself having to do code similar to the following.[code]Is there anyway to check for both on a single line? When i'm checking a condition for a great number of answers, I sometimes end up with conditionals 6-sets deep. If i check for null first, an error still pops up, even though VB shouldn't check since the first condition failed. i.e.[code]
I have a DataGridView1 populated by sql searches. On the rare occasion that nothing is returned, my app cannot make use of data so I'm trying to check for null values. My code below is not correct because IsDBNull is not a member of the of the DataGridView1.
If DataGridView1.SelectedRows(0).IsDBNull Then MsgBox("Nothing to display") Exit Sub End If
I've found out that if two instances of an SSRS report run at the same time, any Code variables declared at the class level (not inside a function) can collide. I suspect this may be the cause of our report failures and I'm working up a potential fix.The reason we're using the Code portion of SSRS at all is for things like custom group and page header calculation. The code is called from expressions in TextBoxes and returns what the current label should be. The code needs to maintain state to remember what the last header value was in order return it when unknown or to store the new header value for reuse
I'm implementing a State Machine in WF 4.0. In some transitions, I have added a condition where I check that some variables have the expected values. The variables are enums and booleans, and everything is fine.
However, now I tried to evaluate when a property is null. I have and argument in my workflow, let's say, 'MyArgument'. In a transition, I try to put a condition like 'MyArgument.MyProperty = Nothing'. I never developed in VB.NET, I don't know if I'm missing something here...
VS2010 gives the following error: "Error 4 Compiler error(s) encountered processing expression "MyArg.MyProp = Nothing". Operator '=' is not defined for types 'XXXX' and 'XXXX'
The type names are exactly the same, and I have debugged VS2010 to ensure that my assembly is not loaded from 2 different locations.
How can I check if the property is null or not?
BTW, I'm using VS2010 SP 1, with .NET Platform Update 1 installed, on W7 64 bits.
