In C#, Why Does A Datatable Not Know The Type Collection Of Rows

Jul 8, 2010

I have recently started .NET programming, and looked at both VB.NET and C#. In VB.NET, a strongly typed Datatable cosisted of a collection of strongly types rows. Therefore, for example, this statement would work:

lCustomerTable As CustomerDataSet.CustomerTable
lCustomerRow as CustomerDataSet.CustomerTable.CustomerRow
lCustomerTable = TableAdapter.GetData
lCustomerRow = lCustomerTable.Rows(0)

However in C#, it seems i have to explicitly cast the returned Row to a CustomerRow:

lCustomerRow = (CustomerDataSet.CustomerTable.CustomerRow)lCustomerTable.Rows[0]

Should the dataset not create the object type definitions when creating the table adapters and SQL dataTables?

VS 2010 : Query A DataTable To Get A Collection Of Rows?

Jul 12, 2011

I'm trying to query a DataTable to get a collection of rows but I'm finding that my search string has to be the exact length of the columns width. So, for example this won't work:

Dim rows As DataRow() = (From r In myTable.AsEnumerable() Where r.Field(Of String)("fname") = "Bob").ToArray()

...but this will:

Dim rows As DataRow() = (From r In myTable.AsEnumerable() Where r.Field(Of String)("fname") = "Bob ").ToArray()

The search term ("Bob") has to be padded with spaces to make it equal in length to the column width (10 characters). Is this how it's supposed to work or am I doing something wrong?Also, how can I do a LIKE search? So for example, I want to search for all names that start with "Bo" or whatever. ie. "Bo*".

Dynamic List From DataTable.Select Rows Collection?

Jun 6, 2011

I'm am creating a "pop-up" CheckedListBox over a button on my DataGridView. The values in the list are going to be filtered based on the value in column 0 of the DataGridView.I have already pulled in a "master" DataTable with two columns: ACODE and MATRIX.I want to call the following function and return an array of strings that I can use to build this CheckedListBox with. The line between "For Each r" and "Next" generates a "Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array". The number of items is variable in the array so I can't predefined it. I know I'm going down the wrong path.

Function StudyGroupSamples(ByVal sampleType As String) As String()
Dim thisArray() As String
Dim theseRows() As DataRow

Possible To Fill A Collection-Type Instead Of A DataTable/DataSet?

Aug 4, 2010

this is more a theoretical question i asked myself.I remembered that BinarySearch of an ordered List(Collection in general) is faster than finding Rows with Datatable.Rows.Find or DataTable.FindByPK with a primary key value.Hence i fill a Datatable from Database in a shared constructor and immediately after that a List(of Int32) that contains all primary keys from that table. Later i will check with BinarySearch if the List contains primary-key values. But because the datatable contains only the PK-Column anyway, i asked myself if there is a way to avoid the huge overhead of filling a Datatable and after that adding all Rows to a List. Is it possible to fill a generic List(or other collection-type) instead of a Datatable/Dataset directly from a Dataadapter?Maybe i'm off the track and there is another way to avoid the Extra-Loop that i'm missing.

The code of filling the DataTable in a strong typed Dataset and the List:
Private Shared w205CorrectSWUpgrades As New List(Of Int32)
Shared Sub New()

VS 2010 : Combine Similar Rows In A Datatable (the Rows Only Differ By One Column)?

May 8, 2012

I have three sub tables that I want to process. For each I want to combine the rows, as they are only different by contents in the second column(I want to do the same to the fourth column, later):

'Sub table 1
xx|C201 |02300877 |Samsung |....
xx|C201 |02300877 |Toshiba |....
xx|C213 |02300877 |Samsung

[code]....

p.s. For the fourth column, Manufacturer information , I want to do the same and I'd probably get something like this for the final table:

xx| C201,C213,C606,C619 |02300877 | Samsung
xx| C201,C213,C606,C619 |02300877 | Toshiba
xx| C303, C305,C712 |02301163
xx| C207, C209, C708 |02301165

VS 2010 - "Rows Cannot Be Programmatically Added To The DataGridView's Rows Collection When The Control Is Data-bound"

Sep 1, 2011

Can anyone tell me why "Rows cannot be programmatically added to the DataGridView's rows collection when the control is data-bound." I keep getting an error "Invalid Operation Exception was Unhandled" error. All I am attempting to do is allow the user to select products from a list(or a second datagridview) and have it added to the datagridview so they do not have to type in every cell since the other cells are not visible because they do not purtain to their needs. Plus they will be able to save all items at the same time.

Add Rows To A DataTable Without Losing The Previous Rows?

Apr 14, 2012

Dim _tableBackLogs As System.Data.DataTable
Do While i - 2 > 0
_tableBackLogs = Global.DataAccess.GetDataTable("SELECT SubjectID,SubjectName,Grade FROM SubjectPI WHERE RegNo='" & CInt(HttpContext.Current.Session("userName")) & "' AND Status='Fail' AND Semester='" & i - 2 & "'")
i = i - 2

Doing this replaces the previous data in the DataTable. I want to retain the previous data i.e i want the new rows to be added to the DataTable w/o replacing the previous rows.

C# - DataTable Vs Collection In .Net

Apr 22, 2010

I am writing a program that needs to read a set of records that describe the register map of a device I need to communicate with. Each record will have a handfull of fields that describe the properties of each register. I don't really need to edit or modify the data in my VB or C# program, though I would like to be able to display the data on a grid. I would like to store the data in a CSV file, or perhaps an XML file. I need to enable users to edit the data off-line, preferably in excel.

I am considering using a DataTable or a Collection of "Register" objects (which I would define). I prototyped a DataTable, and found I can read/write XML easily using the built in methods and I can easily bind to a DataGridView. I was not able to find a way to retreive info on a single register without using a query that returns a collection of rows, even though I defined a unique primaty key column. The syntax to get a value from a column is also complex, though I could be missing something on both counts.

How To Add New Rows Into DataTable

Feb 15, 2012

I have a form with a textbox and a add button. User can write a name down on the textbox and click add button. it will save in a datatable with auto ID. After that, the textbox is cleared and the user can write another name on the text box and click the button. This should add to the existing datatable on memory with existing ID + 1. Show on the gridview. (this is just for display purpose to confirm it works)

I have a datatable like this.
Button1.click() event
Dim name = txtname.Text
Dim dt As New DataTable
dt.Columns.Add("ID", GetType(Integer))
[Code] .....

At the moment I have sometime like the code above. in the real program, it is not just name and it is not just one datatable so i just mock up some code. And this code for aspx.
<asp:TextBox ID="txtname" runat="server">
</asp:TextBox><asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" />
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server">

Fluent NHibernate Not Mapping Child Rows To A Collection Property (DB2 Database)

Nov 4, 2011

The tables described herein both utilize composite keys. I have a parent table that stores eligibility information per "case". The child table stores eligibility information regarding each individual associated with the case. The child records are differentiated by pin number to make them unique in the child table only.

I am using NHibernate v3.1 with Fluent NHibernate v1.2, both acquired via NuGet packages. The entities are mapped in using the Fluent NHibernate auto-mapper functionality. Any custom mapping is done in the mapping override method for each entity.

Another thing to know is that these tables do not have a "primary key" defined in DB2. They only have "unique keys", which are what you see in the composite key definition below (see code).

T0026_AG_ELIG is the name of the parent table and the corresponding POCO class.
T0265_AG_IN_ELIG is the name of the child table and the corresponding POCO class.

Problem:

The problem is that when I execute the query, all the data is queried, the parent record is successfully mapped to the class, but the returned child rows do not map into the collection on the parent class. NHibernate does generate the queries for the parent and child data. When I execute my own query against the database, the correct data for the conditions does come back. For some reason, the child records are just not being bound to the property on the parent (T0026) class.

Question:

What do I need to do to get the multiple rows coming back from T0265_AG_IN_ELIG to map to their corresponding class and load properly into the specified collection property on the parent class (T0026_AG_ELIG)?

Collection Property of Parent (T0026_AG_ELIG):

Public Overridable Property IndividualEligibilityRecords As IList(Of T0265_AG_IN_ELIG)
Mapping Override for Parent (T0026_AG_ELIG):
mapping.CompositeId() _
