DB/Reporting :: Change Binded Datagrid SQL From Code?
Jul 28, 2008
I have a datagrid in my project. The data connection is binded to it by the Tools -> Connect to a database feature in vb.net and it's working great. Since I have to use it for 2 countries how do I change the SQL in the connection and refresh the datagrid with the new data.
How to change the alignments in DataGrid in Visual Basic.net 2003 because all the columns are aligned left default. Also is there anyway to change numeric column to show with 2 decimal numbers (eg: 51.2 -> 51.20)
I have a datagrid that I am populating from an Access 2000 query in Visual Basic 2008.
This code works fine: With dgvCollections .Columns(0).Visible = False .Columns(1).Width = 235 .Columns(2).Width = 230 .Columns(3).Width = 220 .Columns(4).Width = 70 .Columns(4).HeaderText = "Loan" End With
The query works fine, except that I want to change the alignment for one of the columns. I tried to add this line before the "End With": .Columns(4).DefaultCellStyle.Alignment.MiddleCenter()
Which causes the error: "Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated."
I have a datagrid on my form that has a dataset bound to it via the datagrid properties Tables collection. I have the PreferredColumnWidth property of the datagrid set to 75. How can I change the column width in code to match my column header text?
What I am trying to do basically is open an access query in a datagrid view and then be able to make changes to the datagrid and then save it back to the database.When I try to save:
I have a problem with my datagrid(I am noob sorry if its simple). The datagrid is binded to a data table. What i want do is when a product is added or an existing one changed then make that one the selected row in the datagrid. The SelectionMode of the DataGrid is set for the whole row.
Here is the code that i am currently using,[code...]
Now as you can see from my code i don't understand how the index can be wrong as the datagrid is binded to a datatable and the indexes would be the same, and i have the current row in the datatable and look for the index in the datatable and stored it as a Integer!
I have taken up a task where end user should be able to enter information via vb interface into microsoft Access database. This then will be displayed onto the Datagrid via VB interface. The program needs to be setup in a way that first entry by end user will flash upon 3 hours.
Example:
VB Interface ========= Basket Number | Number of Trays | Run Type | Time In 1 | 1 | CNC | 15:00:00
[code]....
Values defined within database shows in this datagrid.The Datagrid works fine and I can insert values into the database fine as well however, I am not sure how to setup a timer so that when 3 hours are up the first entry into the database(shown on datagrid) starts flashing.This is needed so that the end user gets an alert when the time is up so that he can take the trays out of the oven.
In Summary: Can we really setup a timmer so that a value in the datagrid will flash at a particular time.Below is the image of an application. Here you can see the data on the datagrid however I want it to flash after 3 hours. So the first entry will flash after 3 hours following the 2nd entry.
i have a rich textbox with some data that need to be stored in a datagrid it refreshes every 30 seconds and its a player list. the problem is i know how to show 1 player in the datagrid but the next one i dont...
i dont know how to stop my CharArray when it finds an enter and from the enter that it put those value's in a new chararray...
my code :
Code:
' my timer If Now >= ReqTime Then DataGridView1.Rows.Clear()
I am saving some operational log information into a XML file. At any time the user can bring up a datatable to display the information. I don't want them to see the 'HOURLY' log. I can't seem to filter this out. Also I need to populate a list box with all the unique events for filtering.
how do I call the events for a datagrid? I want to update, add, and delete records to a bound datagridview. Is there a simple way to accomplish this? Most of the Database connections are handled but how is the editing handled?
I'm writing my very first application for a customer of mine using VB.NET and I'm stuck with this: how can I open an xls file and put it on a datagrid? I've seen it's quite complex but the lack of examples by Microsoft doesn't allow me to do all the things by myself.
I need to validate the users region against the region in the productlist. What I have is: Several values stored in Session when a user logs in, one of which is Session("SLID") which is the users database primary key value and is used to perform a database lookup whenever a users info is needed. This is done via User.vb I am attaching the file
I'm trying to make my datagrids datasource change when you select a particular item from a drop down menu but all I get is blank cells! any ideas? I don't think it is changing the colums property automatically either.
If chooseType.Text = "Add / Edit Players" Then updateDB.DataSource = PlayersBindingSource
See our Posting Guidelines for our policy on archived threads.I am confused as to where to place the following code snippet in my code. I put the function above my load event and the same exception still occurs:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException' occurred in system.data.dll
ive added a datagrid view to my form and ive also linked it to a database which displays the details i need. but what if i want to delete any rows(records) from the datagrid or edit. i need it to also change in the database. whats the coding? ive tried n tried but cant seem to get the code. its vb.net 2005
Here is the code that I used to import and display the data:
Code: Dim sConnectionString2 As String sConnectionString2 = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" _ & CasePath & ";Extended Properties=""text;HDR=Yes;FMT=Delimited"""
[code]....
The problem is, all of the data gets displayed correctly except for the ip address. It gets truncated to "134.1892". How can I change the formatting for the "Local Address" and "Remote Address" columns.
I am building an application that has several forms to it and on my first form, I declare 2 variables that I will need to pass to at least 2 of the other forms. I call them
Public payPeriodStartDate, payPeriodEndDate As Date
on form2, I am needing to pass those variables to a datagridview to present to users. I have the following query that I'm trying to run from that form but I'm given an error that SQL is unable to parse the query:
Code: SELECT Employeenumber, Exceptiondate, Starttime, Endtime, Duration, Code, Approvedby FROM Exceptions where [Exceptions].exceptiondate between '" & payperiodStartDate & "' and '" & payPeriodEndDate"
The datagrid is bound to the form and I'm using SQL 2000.
I'm using an unbound datagrid to make a balance sheet and I need to have a certain row sum the previous rows but it only concatenates (obviously the cells default as strings but I don't know how to fix it). I've really only worked on VBA and this is my first crack at .net Here's what I've tried that is wrong:
My text file is something like what you see below, and I want to populate the datagrid. Once I populate the datagrid, I'll use that kind of like an excel spreadsheet in the sense that I'll dip in and grab values based on row and column index to display to the user. I will also (on a different form maybe) display the same datagrid to the users so they can sort by column at their choosing.[code]The error I am getting is: Value of type 'Integer' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCell'.
I am using Visual Basic 2008, and SQL Server 2005. I have a single-user client-server app (i know that sounds stupid, but its for future expandibility and also the fact that documentation was easier to find for SQL server than Access files).The app is basically a medicals records system.
In one of the tables, called 'visits', it stores the dates on which each patient visits the doctor, among other things like symptoms and diagnosis. Another table stores all the patient names and IDs along with other details, and a relation has been set up between the patient ID in the patients table and the visits table. So i dragged the visits table from within the patients table (to get only the visits for that particular patient), and dragged it onto the form to make a datagridview. However, the datagridview didn't seem to recognise MS SQL server's smalldatetime format, and tried representing it as a picture. When i changed the format of the column to text boxes, it gave me a type mismatch error (Inconvertible type mismatch between SourceColumn 'VisitDate' of DateTime and the DataColumn 'VisitDate' of Byte[].) That means, for some reason, it is trying to convert the smalldatetime data to byte before it shows it, which is leading to the error. How do i fix this?
Also, I remember seeing some option for using completely custom column types in the datagridview, but i cant seem to find it now. The options in 'Edit Columns' are very limited, but i would like to set it to a masked text box, or something with a fixed format. Can someone recommend a good column type for representing dates, and how to make the datagridview show that kinda column?
I have a 'DataGrid' usercontrol on my simple little form and I press a button that opens a text file and populates the DataGrid like so,
A B C 1 2 3 3 4 4 3 1 3
Where A, B, and C are my column headers.
I also have a 'ListBox' on the form. What I would like to do is, allow the user to select one, two, or three rows (or all) in the datagrid, and press a button that will move the data from selected rows into my listbox (each row its own string in the list box).
I can populate the datagrib easy enough, but don't know how to access the cell data individually?
I have created a very simple Visual Studio .net 2002 VB# program. It consists of form1 containing a DataGrid bound to an Access 2007 Database using OleDbConnection1, OleDbDataAdapter1 and DataSet11.The location address of the Database will change based on the user so, I need to make the connection string variable. Problem is inserting the following string variable "source=" & strFileLocation & ";" creates a fatal error
I have a website that currently uses a MS Access database, but I have been asked to change it to an SQL Server DB. I used the upsizing wizard and have changed the association in the web site from c3.mdb to c3.adp but I get the error "unrecognized database format. I tried using the .mdf file
Code: Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) ' Fires when the application is started
I have a datagrid bound to a datatable. The datatable will then be written to an xml file using the built in "WriteXML" function, which is sweet!
What I would like to do is update the table then overrite the existing XMl file when a cell value changes.
The problem is the "CellValueChanged" event is fired before changes are actually committed to the dataset. I do not want to use the "CellValidated" event because it will fire for each row when the file is forst loaded into the dataset and displayed in the datagrid.
I'm getting familiar now with using the Dataset Designer and how it makes for quick and easy updates and query of tables. I use to use the OleDB commands and leave the Connection String as a Global Constant so I can easily change it if the server name changes, or if we have to re-direct the .NET to another instance of the database.
But now that I use the Dataset designer I'm concerned that I maintain flexibility and support in the long run. how the Dataset designer works and where it stores it's connection string info? And how difficult that would be to update. It looks like I modify the App.config file, but I'm unfamiliar with this.
What am I getting myself into? It looks like a standard XML file. Is that it?
I have a stored procedure that I need to be able to change the table name that the select statement in the stored procedure uses depending on a user input, however I am having a problem with the code:
Code: CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spQryParentComments] @projTable as varchar(50) AS
If I wanted to change the value of a column for every row in a datagridview, what is the best way to do it? I have encountered an issue when the datagridview is bound to a filtered DataView and need to know what I am doing wrong. The code I would normally use is
Code: For Each r As DataGridViewRow In DataGridView1.Rows 'don't touch the blank line, it is pointless and will error out If r.IsNewRow = False Then 'set the current line with the current ID.
I'm retooling an app, and condensing my queries down to one, but to do so, I would like to move the columns for better presentation. I am reporting on errors for particlular equipment, and the user may want to get equipment by errors or errors by equipment. Is there any way to change column order?
