Programmatically DataBind A GridView Control
Sep 27, 2010
I have a blank/unbound GridView control on my form and I am binding it in the code behind like this:[code]Running this code populates my GridView control with all the columns and data that _dataSet has. I want to display only some of the columns, change the column names, and rearrange some of these columns too (i want the last column from the actual sql database table to be displayed first in my GridView).

I know that if get datatable in gridview.datasource,ever write gridview.Databind.But I found coding of my friend. He write only get datatable in gridview.datasource but no write gridview.dataBind. Therefore, his coding is not error. Why? Don't need to dataBind?

I have a DataAccessLayer that returns a datatable. The business layer calling it also returns a type datatable.In my form, I call the business layer as a datasource of my gridview and then I binded it.
This codes are working in C# but I have problems when I converted it to VB.NET. During databind it displays the error: Data source is an invalid type. It must be either an IListSource, IEnumerable, or IDataSource.
Can i not bind a datatable in my gridview in vb.net? What do you think is the problem?

I have a datatable with verified 10 rows named dtable. I attempt to bind it to my gridview and nothing shows up on my asp.net page. Why do these relatively simple few lines not populate my gridview?
Dim con As SqlConnection = Nothing
Dim dTable As DataTable
Dim dataAdapter As SqlDataAdapter
Dim sqlcmd As String

I have a GridView on an ASP.NET page that I'm trying to bind to an object data source that I've set up to map to a vb object I made which accesses the DB. When I run the page, though, the gridview comes up empty.
The ObjectDataSource is definitely returning data. The paging parameters are making it to the underlying object. All the way until I get to the DataBind() call everything seems fine. But the grid comes up empty. Funny thing is, if I use the method that returns all records in the DB, the grid populates just fine. Only when I try to implement custom paging does display no records. I've tried using the wizards, I've tried diagrammatically setting it up and run time. No matter what I do I can't get paged data to display in the grid.
oDatasource = New ObjectDataSource()
oDatasource.EnablePaging = True
oDatasource.TypeName = "tblMessage"
oDatasource.SelectMethod = "GetTblMessageSubset"

I am databinding my gridview in VB code behind. Because of this I know I can not refer to the NewValues when text is entered into one of the edit boxes. I need to retrieve the value of a column in the RowUpdating event.I have tried to do this in a multide of ways, but each of my changes ends up breaking something else.None of these three methods is working....
Dim DT34 As String = DirectCast(GridView4.Rows.FindControl("Textbox1"), TextBox).Text
Dim TB1 As Label = GridView4.Rows(e.NewEditIndex).Cells(0).FindControl("Label1")
Dim tb1 As TextBox = GridView4.Rows(e.RowIndex).Cells(0).FindControl("TextBox1")
Dim IDVal As String = tb1.Text
In the following code, I am believe it is finding the control but it is not returning the value that was entered into the textbox.
Dim tb As TextBox = DirectCast(GRD4.Rows(index1).FindControl("TextBox1"), TextBox)
updateDescription = tb.Text
My field has been converted to a Template field in the Gridview instead of Boundfield.

Apparently, part of the problem is that while an ASP:GridView has an OnDataBound() event (which you can use in the code-behind), the corresponding HTML table that is produced does NOT, so you can attach that event to JavaScript. (Did I get that right?) So, that's why I'm having trouble with that bit of the issue. Back to the drawing board. I'm a desktop developer (WinForms with VB.NET) transitioning into ASP.NET development. My mind is really bending around the DOM and JavaScript and Session State and all of the stuff that goes along with web development. I'm not stupid, and I've done research (including hours of video watching and hundreds of pages of "Intro to ASP.NET" reading), but I keep hitting the wall with what seem to be fairly straightforward problems.
Basically, my current situation can be summed up as follows:
I have a page that runs a very long process initiated by the user. The long process can take up to a few minutes , so I want to indicate to the user that SOMETHING is happening.When the process has completed, I either have:
a. Results to show in a GridView
b. No results to show
If I have results to show, I want to display them. If I have no results to show, I want to show a label to the user that says "No results to show."

I have a function that returns a list of account numbers as an Arraylist. I am trying to use each account as a command parameter in another sub routine to get more data about each account number. This only returns the data for the last account number in the arraylist. I need to use each account number, call the database, get the additional information and store ALL of the data into a Gridview (databind). Example: If I had 3 account numbers in my arraylist return 3 rows of data to the gridview. I am struggling with how to get ALL of the information for each value (account number) in the Arraylist. Can someone point me in the right direction?? I think this can be done but I am not certain if my approach is correct or not. Perhaps I need to create datatables that contain the additional information for each value passed via the arraylist.

I have ASP gridview bound to an Entity Data source which works no problem, however when I try to programmatically change a header columns text, it appears to break the styling and will not allow sorting either, below is how I am trapping and changing the Header row column text.
Protected Sub gv1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gv1.RowDataBound
If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Header Then
'retrieve the values from the userdeftable
e.Row.Cells(6).Text = App.Session.Company.UserDef3
End If
End Sub

I'm looking for adding a control on top of others controls during runtime.
I read that the only way of playing with the Z-Order of controls is by playing with the order of the controls inside the Form.Controls Collection. I find this solution very weird and weak and I'm looking for an alternative.
Does anyone has an idea? I just want to make some kind of modal dialog that'll show below another user control to notice the user that the user control is currently doing something.
Edit: I tried using Control.BringToFront() but it doesn't work at all.

In my ASP.NET Web Forms I would like to get the DataNavigateUrlFields from the HyperLinkField control.
In order to get the control I use the following code in the RowDataBound event:
If e.Row.Cells(n).Controls(0).GetType().ToString() = "System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink" Then
Dim linkDownload As HyperLink = DirectCast(e.Row.Cells(n).Controls(0), HyperLink)
[Code]....
Is there any way to get the DataNavigateUrlFields property? In case there is not, is there any function to extract the downloadGuid value from HyperLink.NavigateUrl (in short treating the NavigateUrl as a QueryString)?

It is a requirement that all .net Controls are created on the main thread, at least this is necessary if the intent is to integrate the control in with the interface which is usually the case. Additionally to modify properties on the control one must invoke the method from the control's thread using its own invoke method.
Is there a way to look at a control and identify its owning thread directly?
Additionally or conversely, is it possible to detect whether the current thread is the "Main thread"? Is there anything special about the thread that Visual Studio identifies as the main thread that can be seen at runtime, or is it simply that this is the first thread that VS executes to initialise debugging?

The backcolor of a default DateTimePicker control seems to be Color.White, but can this change based on a users theme colours and how do I find out what it is currently set to?(There is no backcolour property and DateTimePicker.DefaultBackColor returns SystemColors.Control which is not actually correct)I guess that if someone can confirm that this can't change then I am safe to hard code it? The basis of this question was not actually a typo, it was the fact that BackColor does not show up in my DateTimePicker control intellisense.

I have a MS Access database set up, with a Period field that has either values 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. I retrieve these values using a database connection and I would like to reference a particular control based on what period was grabbed from the database.
Here's example code, pseudo of course.
TextBox(dr(3)).Text = dr(0)
dr(3) contains the period, and dr(0) contains the content I would like to put into the text box. I have these text boxes on my form: TextBox1, TextBox2, TextBox3, TextBox4 and TextBox5.
So if dr(3) contained 2 then I would want to reference TextBox2.

I do a lot of programming in VS 2010 on my Windows XP Pro PC. Recently I tried testing my software on a Windows 7 Home PC. For some reason, all of the controls on my forms are slightly misplaced. I also get a bunch of unhandled exceptions I don't get on my pc. For example, one exception said it couldn't access a registry key. Another said it couldn't find the part of a path (it didnt specify which path). What's up? Why is it doing this? My Win XP PC tricks me into thinking my apps are bug free. Guess not.

I know I can open the control panel item by using the following command
%windir%system32SystemPropertiesPerformance.exe.
However what I do not know is there a way to programmatically select the options on that control panel item? For example in a vb program I can launch that panel quietly have the program select "adjust for best performance" or select "let windows decide" Apply it and then close ?
