VS 2010 Get A Column Value From A Datatable As A String

Mar 24, 2011

I have a database (access) and a listbox which is databound to it etc, and controls the currently selected row in the database.

And i want to check a columns value from the selected row via code, how can i do it? None of the examples on google are recent or for vb.

The column i want to get the value from is

Coulmn name = Related
Column number = 15

The value will be used in a filter so needs to be returned as a string

String Contains Reference To DataTable.Column

Nov 8, 2011

I am using VB.NET and ADO 4.0. Given that I have a string containing a reference to a table.column, can I use the content of the string in a command? [code] I got to the point where I can use the string contents as "reference", it seemed to obvious but [strName] does the trick, partially.When I debug bookableday.room1 remains 0 whilst it should show 6. There might be a conversion issue because the debugger shows me "6" i.s.o. 6 . this is the actual code: [code]

Test If A String Exists In A Column In A DataTable?

Sep 15, 2011

I have two tables, dt & dtResults.dt contains 3 columns named: vchInstrumentAnalyteID, bintAnalyteCodeID, & vchAnalyteCode dtResults contains several columns including the columns in dt

I want to get vchInstrumentAnalyteID from the first row in dt and test if it exists in the vchInstrumentAnalyteID column in dtResults. If it exists, I want to use that value from dt to filter rows in dtResults and fill all the filtered rows with data from that row in dt. Then loop to the next row in dt.

I have this code, which is close to what I need, but I can't get it working.

' put analyte data in results table

VS 2010 Add Column To Datatable And Save To Database

May 1, 2012

I have an application that users will save a list of clients to a database. The extension on the database is .sdk, and I think is some kind of sql database. The user can save rows and add rows to maintain a client list, but when I release an update, I have to install it without the database file. If I install with the database file, then their current client database is replaced with a new blank database.

my issue is that I need to add columns to tables in their existing database without overwriting their current rows. For example, i have columns for client name, address, and phone number currently. On my next update, I want the user to be able to save client birthdays. Here is what I have:

VS 2010 Break Down A DataTable Into Groups Of Rows Ones With Same Traits Under Column?

May 3, 2012

I have a Datatable with one column of the table being 'PartNum(product part number)'. I used EntriesTable.DefaultView.Sort = "PartNum ASC" to sort the whole Table, with respect to the information in this column. Now I'm just trying to further sort the table by grouping rows that have same info under that column together and do something to each of such groups. but I'm kinda stuck here.

I'm thinking of creating some sub-DataTables out of the original one and have these sub-tables to hold those rows with same info under "PartNum". Does anyone have ideas how to do that? maybe with DataReader or DataView ,

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

Referencing A Column From Another Column In Datatable?

Feb 5, 2012

I have a data table, i want to add a new column on that table, the data in that new column will depend in the data from another column. Now i can think of two ways to accomplish this, first is loop through the whole table and do the statements to get my new columns appropriate data. the second approach would be to give the new column an expression, then convert the table to xml (to remove the expression) then convert the xml string back to datatable.

Now, is there any other way around this? what could be the most optimized way in solving this task?

Add Column To Csv File Or Datatable?

Aug 3, 2011

I have a csv file that comes in I put it into a dataset and do a little manuipulation of the appearance of how the data is presented and then I put it back out into a different csv file that our 3rd party application will except. I was importing it into SQL Server and then doing a select statement to grab the data back out in the format I required. However I'd really like to eliminate the need for the SQL Server use.

So my question is how do I add in the 1st column of a CSV file the column name "KC" with a value of "1" there will only be 1 rows worth of data, mind you it's 55 columns long but there is nothing I can do about that, it's the way it has to be.So do I do this in the DataTable or when I create the CSV file? And how do I do this?
