The user enters information into a textbox and I would like to reflect these changes on the database. So say there is a value of 50 in the textbox and the user just deletes this and it is now "". When I try to update the database I receive an error as it expects a type of double. However, simple appending a 0 here when a value of "" is encountered will not work for me as I have a universal function to handle all of my updating needs. How would I go about determining the type of field I am dealing with (int, double, varchar) of the data table which I currently have in memory
This is my programs complete code, the only problem is i want to fix the amount of decimal places that show up in my gridview. The problem is if i do this on the asp side the location of the column gets thrown off and the column is duplicated. I figured if i just remade the table on the asp side it would work only problem is if i remove the sql for that particular column the asp side column cannot get data.
I am writing validation for a datagridview which may open a number of different tables (dependant on what the user selects). The idea is that the user will select a lookup table to edit or add too, the datagridview opens (via a binding source) and populates itself with a specific table's data.
The user can then edit the data in the rows and when they are happy update the dataset which in turn updates the database table.
This all works except there is no validation per say prior to the update. As the datagrid loads a different table dynamically I cannot predetermine table column names (without writing a mass of hard coded values) so I would rather go by the datatype of the column since the tables all follow a similar format.[code]...
I need to read data from an Excel sheet as part of a data conversion. Certain columns contain mostly numeric data but may contain some alphanumeric data somewhere in the excel sheet. The problem is, my conversion sees the alphanumeric values as null (or blank. Using the .ToString() method returns ""). To connect to Excel, I'm creating an oledb connection, creating an OleDbDataAdapter, then filling a DataSet with the adapter.
Here's the VB code for connecting: private _oleadpt As OleDbDataAdapter private _oleconnection As New OleDbConnection Dim olecomm As OleDbCommand '_database comes from a settings file and is the full path to an excel document Dim connstring As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & _database & "; Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;""" [Code] .....
I think the data adapter is determining the datatype for the columns based on the first however-many rows it looks at. It decides the columns with numbers are numeric which is the start of my problem. Changing the formatting of the column in Excel doesn't seem to affect the datatypes in my data set. Is there a way to tell the dataadapter or dataset what type of data to use for a column? Or should I try to cast the data in my SQL statement?
i am having this problem for quite some time now and cannot figure out the solution..
i have a productid that i get as a result of sql query. The data type of productid in database is int

The problem is that for some columns it sets the data type to be Double even though the spreadsheet column format is "Text" and teh column contains non-numeric data. Then when it gets to that cell it returns DBNull instead of the text value.
I need to create a function which have either 1 parameter with a string as data type or 2 parameters with double as data type.Something like the substring method.
I'v designed a ms access database table with one field having Datetime datatype. I can Insert data into it from vb.net front end by trns_dt DateTime.Now.DateBut when I fetch records from the tableand assign the dataset datasource as da, it shows datatype mismatch error.
I have a program that calculates commission, but if the commission is nothing then I do not want it to show a zero commission. I want a message box to show a message that there is no commission earned.
My colleague gave me a DLL that manage all database business. I wanted to invoke a function that uses Stored Procedure and return the search result. In the function receive a parameter type in ystem.Data.IDataParameter[]. Below is my codes.
I added this lines in the form load of DataGridPrinter by Merrion in the codebank..[code]Unable to cast object of type 'System.Data.DataViewManager' to type 'System.Data.DataTable'.

I have a number of controls (Device1, Device2, etc.) that all inherit from BaseDeviceControl. In the DragEnter event handler I am trying to test for the correct type by using the BaseDevvceControl like this....
I am pulling data from a local MSSQL database using a stored procedure, then send the data to a web service. Every part of the component works well except for a pesky problem will a DBNull being returned from the DataRow field, when I know that the field is not null and has valid data. The database and associated INSERT statements that add to this field are designed to not allow NULL entries. When I debug break the program on or right before the line that throws the error I see that the field has valid data for the current row.If I add a null check to the code (as below) the operation continues as normal:
Dim dataResultsTable = Me.myViewTableAdapter.GetData(int) For Each myDataRow In dataResultsTable.Rows If worker.CancellationPending Then
[code]....
Why is the read operation returning DBNull instead of the data in the database?
EDIT: Just to be clear, the operation does return the proper data, but the data is not being saved into the variable.
In the code above, if there are no children (the ChildrenPath property returns NULL), nothing is rendered in the view. In the code below, when ChildrenDataSetPath is NULL the XamDataGrid still gets rendered. How do I achieve the same for a single object (as opposed to a collection) as the datacontext?
str2 = "select sno,name from employees where sno =" & Val(Me.TextBox1.Text) cmd2 = New SqlClient.SqlCommand(str2, con) da2 = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(cmd2)
[Code]....
Now dt2 has two columns as sno and name But I want to add a 3rd column city type char(80)
