Dropdownlist Invalid Error Edititem Template Gridview
Sep 15, 2011
Error Dropdownlist has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items. Parameter name: value I have been banging my head over this error for about a week now. I have searched posted on other forums and still no solution to my issue. I have seen the FindControl being suggested but do not know how to implement this.
Basically I have 2 webmethods that reference 2 datasets which then populate my ajax cascading dropdownlist. In insertmode they work great however in editmode i get the above error.I have removed the selectedvalue and added
DataSource='<%# Bind("intRoom") which works sort of except for the fact that when you click edit it does not retain the original value of that particular record. Other things i have tried are as following:adding the items to the itemcollection of the dropdownlist turning appenddataitems to true on also tried to use the findcontrol but dont understand that punching my monitor and slamming my keyboard
Now I know i could get this to work by using a sqldatasource with some t-sql to get my dropdownlist to work however I thought by reusing my webmethods my code would be more professional. So if there is anyone out there that can help me understand why the value for my dropdownlist is not being populated or does not exist during gridview editing Also will post code if asked not sure what you would like to see rather than posting everything.

I would like to show different values in a dropdownlist, while editing a gridview, depending on which user is logged in. For example...
The officer would see "Approved by Officer" status.
The director would see "Approved by Director" status
I am trying to add these programatically to a dropdownlist which I have in the edit template of my gridview (approvalsGrid). Here is my code:
Protected Sub ApprovalsGrid_RowUpdating(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewUpdateEventArgs) Handles ApprovalsGrid.RowUpdating
Dim ApprovalEditDD As DropDownList = CType(ApprovalsGrid.Rows(ApprovalsGrid.EditIndex).FindControl("ApprovalEdit"), DropDownList)
[code]....
I do not get any errors. But get an empty dropdown with no items. Am I using the correct event?

I am using a GridView in asp.net 2.0 and I want to perform inline editing. I am using an object datasource. Because I want to use validation controls on the integer fields in my gridview, I have made them into <TemplateFields> and added a datatype validator and a range validator. This allows me to either have a blank field, or an integer value between 0 and 999.I am trying to display a "-" when the value of the property is not defined. There is no Null for an integer, so I have decided to use -1 as the value to indicate a Null.I am reformatting the to display the "-" if the value is -1. I do that as follows:
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblPC" runat="server" Text='<%# FormatIntegerToText(Eval("PitchCount"),"-") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
In the code behind I have defined the function FormatIntegerToText as follows:
Protected Function FormatIntegerToText(ByVal value As Object, ByVal nullvalue As String) As String
' Make sure value is not null... if so, return "-"
If value = Null.NullInteger() Then
Return nullvalue
[code]....
I though I could do the following to reformat the value that is placed in the text box:
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:textbox ID="txtPC" runat="server" Text='<%# FormatIntegerToText(Bind("PitchCount")) %>' width="25" Columns="2"></asp:textbox>
but when I do this I get a compilation error that Bind is not a recognized function.why is this not allowed, and how can I work around it?

I have a gridview that I would like to be able to bind to several sqldatasources, but still use template fields. Each datasource is different and would have different columns so I'm not sure how to go about this. Is it possible to define a set of template fields or overlying template per datasource?

In the RowDataBound event of an ASP.NET Gridview I am trying to read the value of a Label in a Template Field. I would prefer to capture this value in the RowUpdating Event, but for some reason I seem to recall that it is not possible. Here is the ASP...
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Translation" ItemStyle-Width="250" >
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label11" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("lang_String") %>' Width="250px"></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
Here is the VB.net code that I am trying to figure out....
Protected Sub GridView1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridView1.RowDataBound
If (e.Row.RowState And DataControlRowState.Edit) > 0 Then

I'm having some trouble getting the results of the drop-downs in a gridview, and haven't found any helpful articles for VB code.
What I'm trying to do is build a site for tests. So far I have the gridview built w/the extra column for a drop-down list where the true/false answer will be selected. When the test is completed, there is a submit button. All is well except I need to be able to get the results of each drop-down list on post-back to a variable or array (each test contains 10 questions) so the results can be checked/graded. When the results are determined I would like to display a label in it's place and change the text value accordingly (correct or incorrect), so I'll need to be able to enumerate these as well (i.e. label1.text="Correct!", label2.text="Incorrect!", etc...).
Code so far.
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" BackColor="White" BorderColor="#3366CC"
BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px" CellPadding="1">[code].......
The preceding code loads 10 rows, 2 columns (column1:Question | column2-[DropDownLists]:Answer). I'm a freshman when it comes to development, so if you need additional info let me know.

I have a GRIDVIEW with columns, one of which contains a CSV of possible values for the dropdown that must appear on each row.
Private Sub GridViewParameters_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles GridViewParameters.RowDataBound
If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then[code].....
Depending on whether the type of control is a dropdown, textbox, or check box (feined in the table) it hides or shows the relevant control type. If it is a dropdown it needs to get its values from a CSV in a corresponding column. I have a SP that returns a these in table form if passed the id of the relevant row.How do I get that is from the gridview to pass to the drop down and load it correctly?

I'm having trouble with a DropDownList within a GridView that posts a NULL value when in fact a value is selected from the list when using inline editing.
The problem is that I can't use this method to bind the value to the UpdateCommand in my SqlDataSource:
SelectedValue='<%# Bind("Value") %>'
The reason for this is because the value might not exist in the list so it throws an exception.
Is there a way I can bind the value to the UpdateCommand without using SelectedValue?

I have a list of items in a GridView, with one column I'd like editable through a DropDownList.
I do not wish to put the GridView into 'edit' mode or have any 'confirm/update/save' buttons.. I just want autopostback on the DDL, and an OnSelectedIndexChangedevent to update the row.
Problem is, from my OnSelectedIndexChangedevent within the DDL, although I can see the new value to save, I can't discover the row to update from the GridView.
how I can achieve what I wish? Other than perhaps storing the row id within the DDL? Maybe turn it around so the GridView's events are called?

I need to create a gridview which fills its column with data from an excel sheet and for each column in the gridview, the header should contain a drop down list with listitems like telephone, name, price which the user will select and set as the header for the particular column. I imported data into gridview but I am not able to create a drop down list in the gridview. If I try to create a dropdownlist in the designer page, it is just creating the dropdownlist in the gridview header but not populating the data. So How can I create a dropdownlist in the header of the gridview while populating its column data from excel sheet.
The code I used to populate data into gridview is
Dim con As String = ""
Select Case Extension
Case ".xls"
'Excel 97-03

Firstly i'm not asking for the exact code here but the below is what i'm trying to do:I have a gridview with DropDownList and CheckBox and I have a button outside the gridview that will add a new row within the gridview.I have no problems with the adding row but I have a problem with saving the state of the checkbox/drop down list.Everytime I checked the checkbox and add a new row, all the DDL/CB will be reset.So how can I do it so that when I add a new row, the checkbox that I've checked before will still remain check.

I tried my best to shrink down the program to the following code. In this example, I have UK and USA as valid countries. If someone lives outside those countries, I wanna show an error message and highlight them on the gridview. For example, John and Chris are from China so they should be highlighted on the gridview. Either just Name or the whole row can be highlighted.
Dim dt As New DataTable
dt.Columns.Add("ID")
dt.Columns.Add("Name")

Using NPOI and attempting to follow a tutorial here: [URL]..I'm coming across an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error at this line: sheet.GetRow(1).GetCell(1).SetCellValue("some test value")
when trying to use this code:
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Web.Security
Imports NPOI.HSSF.UserModel
Imports NPOI.SS.UserModel
Imports NPOI.SS.Util

Yet the question is still open...why didn't the code in the first example work? Do you have to declare every new row of data? What happens when you have lots of rows of database data?
