Asp.net - Format Dynamically Generated Column Headers Of GridView?
Jun 27, 2012
I have created a Stored Procedure in SQL which produces a pivot table. I've successfully created a GridView in ASP.NET to display this data.
However, some of my column headings are dynamically generated from the data (AutoGenerateColumns=True), and those column headings are just dates, so they will look different almost every time the table is generated.
This all works fine, except that the date format of the column headings is wrong. I know I could change the way SQL produces the dates in its output, but I don't want to do it that way. I want to control it from the web page.
I didn't think this would be difficult - I thought I could just do something along the lines of finding the cells in the header row and changing the datastringformat. The problem is that whether I put my code in the GridView's DataBound or RowDataBound event, the cells in the header row seem to be empty, so I can't reformat them. It's as if the headers get populate some time AFTER the DataBound event, but I don't know when or how to trap it.

I have a vb.net website with a gridview that currently has exam questions displaying vertically in each row like this:
Name question answer
-----------------------
Joe question1 answer1
Joe question2 answer2
[code]....
But I would like to change it, so that each question is a header, like this:
Name question1 question2 question3
----------------------------------
Joe answer1 answer2 answer3
Jill answer1 answer2 answer3
This makes it more readable since each user is only listed once.I would like to stick with a gridview instead of rewriting all my code.I am actually binding my data to the gridview via some other programmers class. I am using LINQ like this:
Return (From entry In report.FetchAllEntries()
Select questionID = entry.Question.QuestionID,
userID = entry.Session.User.ID,

I have a datagrid and one of the columns show the size of a file.
Ex:
87 bytes
978 kb
500 Mb
766 Gb
If i get the number of bytes, calculate the correct value (in kb, Mb or Gb) to show as you can see above and add the value on the cell, it works but when i try to sort the column it does not work. It get's the wrong order.How can i format a column on a grid view so the sorting works correctly?

dynamically creating buttons with images in them and then accessing the on click event for that button. However lets say for example I have three buttons created during run time, button 1, 2 and 3 for simplicities sake. Each button needs to correspond to a value (lets say one, two and three). The problem comes in when i want to, for example, click on dynamically generated button 3 and have it display "three" in a message box. But button 2 might close the program. How can i reference an event when i don't know which button corresponds to which action..

I have a csv file that is being sent to me in this format[code]...
This is the only way this file can be exported from the system that is sending the information.
The second item is the Header and of course the 3rd would be the value that needs to be inserted into the row. How do I import a file like this. It is going to be sent to me every 5 minutes so I have to be able to extract the data shortly after the file arrives and insert it into Sql server.

What I'm trying to do is parse a CSV file that has column headers, and map those headers - ideally to a class.The tricky part is that I need to be able to support various mappings because it will be interacting with different systems that give the headers different names. Additionally, being able to combine fields would be extremely helpful.
Fortunately, the CSV will always be correctly formatted with all fields encapsulated in double quotes.

My goal is to take some form inputs and prompt the user to download a summary of everything once a certain button is clicked. I have no need for the file once it is downloaded and so I'd like to have a solution where the data is streamed directly to the user. My current solution doesn't even prompt the user for a download. Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong?[code]....

On my main form I have a 9 button grid that I need to fill with a gradient colour so that it represents a "heat map" going from Green (lower left) to Red (upper right). The "heat map" needs to be generated dynamically as - if I use an pregenerated image I have noticed colour variances when working on different screens / projectors as in the app there are other dynamically generated graphics & the two sets of colours need to match.So to achieve this - on my main form I have a PictureBox that I fill with the gradient colour.On top of the PictureBox I place my grid of 9 buttons.I then hide each button & take a screenshot of what is behind it & that then becomes the background image for the button. The button is then made visible.All works fine when I am testing in on a simple form The issue is that this arrangement needs to be placed on a tab control & I'm having difficulty replicating what I could do successfully on the simple form.....
Code for the colour gradient :-
Dim A As Integer
Dim B As Integer
Dim C As Integer
Dim D As Integer

I need to create a checkedlistbox that has multiple columns and each column has a header. Is this possible? I can't really find much on Google. Here's the headers I need:
Checkbox Title Existing path Destination path
I have created these columns to the checkedlistbox I have in my form, but when it is run the headers don't show up. Also the items I'm adding don't seem to abiding to the column widths I put in. Also with the code I'm providing below the items don't display as multiple rows, meaning each item doesn't get displayed on a new row, but in a new column.

For i = 0 To iMovies
Movie = New MovieItem()
Movie.tmdbid = CInt(StrBetween(moviestag, "<tmdbid>", "</tmdbid>"))
