VS 2008 - How To Get Unique Values From Specified Column Of DataTable

Jun 16, 2009

I'm trying to make a method that can get unique values from a specified column of a DataTable. The problem is that the column may be string, integer, etc. I'm not sure what type of variable the (Of T) is.

Private Sub GetColumnUnique(ByVal dbTable As DataTable, ByVal ColumnNumber As Integer, ByVal ColumnType As ???)
Dim results As List(ColumnType) = (From item In dbTable.AsEnumerable Select item.Field(ColumnType)(ColumnNumber)).Distinct.ToList
End Sub

Way To Allow Only Unique Values In A Column Of An Infragistics UltraWinGrid?

Mar 21, 2012

I'm using an Infragistics UltraWinGrid with a column of drop-down boxes. I don't want the user to be able to select the same value for multiple rows in that column. Is there a simple (or heck, I'd settle for advanced) way to do this? I'm using VB.NET

-EDIT-

I tried setting a filter on the data source for the drop-down box. But when I did that, the values in the other boxes in that column started disappearing (not the values themselves, but the descriptions that they were supposed to represent, so instead of reading "Information", it just said "1"). All of the cells in a column refer to the same combo box, so if you filter out a value from the data source for one of them, you filter it out for all of them. I'm currently trying to catch a CellChange event and check against all other currently-used values. If it was already used, I would put up a message saying as much and revert back to the old value. However, the value comes back as the previously-saved one, so... not helpful. About to see if I can use the "text" property.

Get Row Count Of Distinct Values In A DataTable Column?

Mar 13, 2012

I have a DataTable that has several hundred rows.I want to get a row count of distinct values in a particular column.For example, I have a DataTable of Product Orders, but I want to get the number of unique Customers.

I was using this code, but I can't rely on it because my binding source is filtered from time to time.If my binding source has filtered out all rows datatable.DefaultView returns 0 rows.

VS 2008 SQL - With A Unique Column?

Mar 31, 2009

Alright, I have this Access Database. It has 6 Columns: ID | Class Name | Class Code | Class Room | Grade | Teacher

My ID is the Unique Column that I need to reference back too when Updating my other Fields so I get the correct field.How do I do this? Properly.I've been thinking of a method but I doubt it would work.First I would start off selecting all the ID's and then LOOP through all of them, and then rewrite them to to + 1 Each time I make a Delete, so Each Time it will be a consistent 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 .... etc... Then I can reference from that to my Combo Box Selected Index + 1 to get the Correct Row which corresponds with the Selected Item.Will this work? Or will I still need a Unique Fields that I reference back too.

Populate A Treeview With Nodes That Are The Values Of A Column In A Datatable?

Aug 12, 2009

I am trying to populat a treeview with nodes that are the values of a column in a datatable. I have managed to get the correct number of nodes but the text is not displayed next to the nodes, there is just a 3 shape but the other way round and with square corners shown.

The code is below. I would like to have these parent nodes populated on the form load and then (i think this is what i have read) to be quicker i would like to then load the childnodes once a parent node has been selected, as i don't want to load the whole database on form load or when the form is refreshed.

Here is the code with more dtails below:

Way To Get Unique Records From Datatable?

Aug 13, 2011

I have a DataTable with multiple columns including AccountNumber, Year, and Month. I am exporting the information in this table to an Excel workbook. Since this table has the potential to be extremely large, I must check the number of records in the table (since Excel can only have 65536 rows or something like that. If the original table is small enough, I need to put all of the records in a single worksheet. If there are too many records for one worksheet, I need to separate the records into multiple worksheets based on AccountNumber. Additionally, if there are too many records for a specific AccountNumber then I need to split that AccountNumber into multiple worksheets based on Year.ng:

Worksheet Name ---- Number of Records
1111 ---- 150,000
2222 ---- 50,000

C# - Mark Non-unique Rows In A DataTable?

Dec 6, 2010

I have a DataTable which I want to check if values in three of the columns are unique. If not, the last column should be filled with the line number of the first appearance of the value-combination.

[Code]...

I solved this by iterating the DataTable with two nested for loops and comparing the values. While this works fine for a small amount of data, it gets pretty slow when the DataTable contains a lot of rows.My question is: What is the best/fastest solution for this problem, regarding that the amount of data can vary between let's say 100 and 20000 rows? Is there a way to do this using LINQ? (I'm not too familiar with it, but I want to learn!)

Column's Value Is Likely To Be Unique 90% Of Time

Jul 15, 2010

For each loop through a DataSet, I need to store the values of 2 columns (we'll call them ColumnA and ColumnB) so that I can use them to search the same DataSet again later.The DataSet stores the results of a search and places the value of ColumnA into a ListBox as a new item.When the user clicks on this ListBox item, the application will loop through the DataSet again using the value of ColumnA and the value of ColumnB as criteria to identify the correct row in the DataSet to return.This would be a lot simpler if the value for ColumnA was unique every time, but a value will inevitably be repeated on occasion. That's where ColumnB comes in. This column's value is likely to be unique 90% of the time, and, given the nature of the information in the DataSet, if either column duplicates, the other won't.So I've thought of adding the values for ColumnA and ColumnB into a 2 dimensional dynamic array, but I'm doing something wrong apparently.[code]

Know If The Table Column Is Unique?

Mar 15, 2012

currently, what i want to do is, add a column in a table "default" during runtime. Well, I've got that covered already.

The problem is, the column names are actually taken from the users input through a textbox or drop down list and of course, if the same column is added already in the table, it generates an error since it has to be unique.

That is why i wonder if it is possible to know if a column already exists without viewing the form which contains the grid view of that table?
