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 nullvalue 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 editer but it changes back automatically
When I put a break point to the last if clause in the sub ("If (backOrder < 0) Then", see below) it runs until the break point, if I put the break point further below, I get the following error:
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OrderID', table 'WHM.dbo.OrderDetails'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated.
I've discovered first hand that it only happens when prodqty is bigger then qtyOnStock, thus executing the if clause.
The code:
Private Sub NCOSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles NCOSubmit.Click
Dim sqlText As String = ""

I am trying to create a treeview in VB.net, the data has to be loaded from MSAccess 2010 database. When I try to run this program I get error : Argument Null Exception was unhandled, 'column' argument cannot be null and the program crashes. I have pasted the code as under:
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class frmRating
Private Sub frmRating_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles

I have some code which gets child items for a menu via the GetChildren function which takes a list of menuData: Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))
For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
If menuData.Children IsNot Nothing Then
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
End If
Next
If I check if menudata.children isnot nothing, it always is nothing because the GetChildren function is yet to run (providing the child items, which do exist). If I remove this check and just have this code:
Dim builtMenu As New List(Of MenuData)(_rawData.FindAll(Function(item) item.GroupingID = 0))
For Each menuData As MenuData In builtMenu
menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
Next
Then I am presented with a Object reference not set to an instance of an object error on menuData.Children.AddRange(GetChildren(menuData))
I have a fairly simple piece of code:
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 have the following query, I'd like to sum the NULL value also. Some TimeSheet don't records in TimeRecord and some tr.TimeIn and tr.TimeOut are NULL.The query select only TimeSheet that has reords in TimeRecord. How I can have it select everything, and sum up the NULL value as well. So, the SUM of NULL will be just zero.

In order to get rid of Trick nodes where value is null, I wrote:
myXmlElement.<Play>.<Trick>.Where(Function(m) m.<Trick>.Value = "").Remove()
I'm having trouble figuring out what to do with the bolded part, when there are no nodes to return.If there are no image tags inside the <images> tag, i get an "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object".I have been searching and searching for an answer but can't find one.

Im trying to check my database for a null value. If the database is null, then I want it to start the timer, otherwise I want it to skip over some stuff and automatically load the main form.
I am trying to check to see if a DataSet is null or not. If it is I would like to show a MessageBox. For some reason it is not recognizing null returns and skipping the message box and going right to the Else commands. [code]....

Here is the code.

I have a DataSet where I need to filter the collection where one of the date columns is not null.
How do you term this in LINQ?
This is what I have so far but there is a compiler error on the w.CompletedDate field in the Where clause.
Dim completed = From ins In InspectionDataset.Inspection.AsEnumerable _
Where (Function(w) w.CompletedDate IsNot Nothing) _
Order By ins.Field(Of DateTime)("UpdatedDate")
I have also tried it the below way but the compiler will not allow the DBNull comparison.
Dim completed = From ins In Inspection.AsEnumerable _
Where ins.Field(Of DateTime)("CompletedDate") <> DBNull.Value _
Order By ins.Field(Of DateTime)("UpdatedDate")
I have a table with the below structure.
ID VALUE
1 3.2
2 NULL
4 NULL
5 NULL
7 NULL
10 1.8
11 NULL
12 3.2
15 4.7
17 NULL
22 NULL
24 NULL
25 NULL
27 NULL
28 7
I would like to get the max count of consecutive null values in the table.
I am finding this weird issue. When I do this > activities.Where(Function(a) (Not a.IsDeleted And a.ParentId = 100) It returns an in-memory query & when I try opening it up, it throws a object not set exception. This only happens when there were no items which satisfied the condition. Shouldn't it be returning an empty set? When there are items satisfying the condition, then it returns a list & works all good.
View 1 RepliesI've got what I think is a working left outer join linq query but I'm having problems with the select because of null values in the right hand side of the join.[code]I want to return all of e and one column from c called tClassCode. I was wondering what the syntax would be. As you can see I'm using vb.net.[code]If i remove the c.tClassCode from the select the query runs without error. So i though perhaps i needed to do a select new but i don't think i was doing that correctly either.

I am fetching all departments and their sales, average, count from the ReceiptLine, Receipt, ReceiptDiscount tables. The problem i am facing is, if i remove where discount > 0, I am getting null exception. But if I include that, then I only get sales that has discount. How would I write query that bring all sales less discount (if it has one).

View 6 RepliesI've got a table that caches calculated values for certain dates. I want to use LINQ to select all rows where the calculated value fields are null.But when I use isNothing I get an error that LINQ can't translate this into T-SQL. Is there a way to select null values with link, like this...?
Dim var = From rec As Record In myDataContext.Records Where IsNothing(rec.calculatedValue) Select rec
Other posts on stackoverflow mostly discuss how to avoid or check for null values with LINQ.
Note: I can't just set cacluatedValue's default to -1 to flag records whose calculated value has not been set (and then select those records) because I run queries that sum/average the calculated values. Selecting nulls seems cleaner and less bug-prone.
I have a databound DataGridView and use a button to control updates.
The problem is that if a db Column does not allow a null value an error is thrown ("Column <ID> does not allow null values") and then the datagridview automatically removes the row. This error is raised as soon as the user leaves the cell and before the update command is issued.
I have a date field (smalldatetime) in a table and in particular cases I need to set the date field to null. Currently, when setting the sqlparameter.value property to a date

I am working on a program that has many integers (q1, q2, etc.), and each of them can be 0 or 1. This is dependent on which radiobuttons are selected. I need it to check and make sure that all of the integers have a value, but since "Null" is the same as "0",

The problem is when the textbox is blank and I click on the copy button.
The saving to my.settings happens on close so when someone enters text that they plan on saving later and then clicks the copy button, whammo it crashes.
