I have a dataset that is populated via a SQL Stored Procedure, the format of which is below: Country | Brand | Variant | 2004 | 2005 | 2006 | 2007 | 2008 The number of rows varies between 50 and several thousand. What I'm trying to do is use Linq to interrogate the dataset (there will be several Linq queries based on user options), but a simple example would be to SUM the year columns based on Brand. I have the following that I believe creates a template for me to work with: But from here on I'm absolutely stuck!
Background: I'm importing data from a MySQL database into a SQL-Server database(for reports and later a SSAS-Cube). I want to normalize the data at the same time. I want to group repeating Ticket_IDs to one record in a table Contact with other useful informations and leave the rawdata in the sub-table ContactDetail(with foreignkey to Contact).Hence every record in Contact has a unique Ticket_ID.
I've decided to use strong typed datasets for the import. Now i'm wondering what's the best way to detect if i've already added a Ticket_ID. I could check for it in every loop(~100000 records) but i'm assuming that there is a better/faster way.
Simplified sample-data:
Ticket_ID ID fiContact 89442226 1 1 89442226 2 1[code].....
I will have a look if this is faster than the iterating approach with a HashSet to detect if the contact was already created.
I've got the following LINQ Statement:[code]invRecord.Pack_Num is a field of type Integer. This means that when I try to access it, if it is DBNull I get a StronglyTypedException. The above code throws this exception. If, however, I remove the "invRecord.Pack_Num = PSNum" and in its place put something like "True", the code works fine. So I guess my question is, why is that that invRecord.IsPack_NumNull() returns False when the value is in fact DBNull and what can I use as a conditional instead? I've been beating my head against the wall for a while now and I can't find a solution to this problem.
I am using VS 2008, VB.NET and Windows XP r3.I am trying to use LINQ to DataSet in my app. In my test app, I can get it to work find. My test form has an OleDbDataAdapter, an OleDbConnection and a DataSet. It also has a DataGridView bound to the one table in the DataSet, a BindingSource and a Button.[code]

I have a single columned datatable inside a single tabled dataset.I just want to convert this dataset to distinct rows. Here is my code, it gives compile error '.' expected.
Dim query = _ From email In ds.Tables(0) _ Select email.Field<string>("Email").Distinct()
EDIT: I changed to (Of String) and it works... BUT NOW 'query' is an ienumerable collection of characters... not a datatable... so how do I convert back easily without manually doing a loop?
i think i have not represented my question correctly here My LEFT OUTER JOIN MSDN reference is here to visualize my problem in access databaseTABLE "T1"1234567TABLE "T2"1,sunday2,monday i need output as 1,sunday2,monday34567 i need it to done through LINQso far i did is here
Dim RIGHT_table As DataTable = ds1.Tables("t1") Dim LEFT_table As DataTable = ds2.Tables("T2") Dim OutPut = From LEFTsource In LEFT_table.AsEnumerable(), RIGHTsource In RIGHT_table.AsEnumerable() _
This is what I'm doing to select and display 3 columns of my datatable in GridView:
Dim myCustomers = From Cust In myDataset.Customers _ Select CustomerId = Cust.CustomerId, _ CustomerName = Cust.CustomerName, _ ExpiryDate = Cust.ExpiryDate DataGridView1.DataSource = myCustomers.ToList
The expiry date has null values in many records whose expiry date is not set.On executing the query I get runtime error:System.Data.StrongTypingException "The value for column 'ExpiryDate' in table 'Customers' is DBNull."
Obviously, my LINQ query is wrong or incomplete, but I am not able to figure the way to do it correctly.
I have following code that creates Linq query. I've never used Linq until today and having problem with "Order By Clause"[code..]
If I run the code, I get following error.Name 'p' is either not declared or not in the current scope. How come p!Weight in "Select Clause" works but not in "Order By Clause"?
I have a collection (IList(Of Sample)) of the following class:
Public Class Sample Public sampleNum As String Public volume As Integer[code].....
This collection is filled from a regex that gets passed over a file.What I want to do is use Linq to generate a collection of these for each unique samplenum using the following conditions.For each samplenum: Have the highest volume where the final is greater then one
If the sample has multiple records for this volume then pick the one with the the highest final
If the previous step leaves us with no records pick the record with the highest final ignoring volume
I am extremely new to Linq and just can't get my head around this. For now I have solved this using for each's and temporary lists but I am interested in how this would be handled using pure Linq.Sample Data:
Right now our queries can be driven through the DataTable Select statement. However, utimately we want to end up with more complex queries. We think Linq is the answer, but can't find anyexamples of this.Here is the sysnopsis:I have a dataset containingdatatable(s) of informationI have a datatable containing business rules as strings like:
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 been searching for quite a while about joining multiple datatables via LINQ to dataset (When i say multiple, i don't mean just 2!!!), and it seems there aren't lot of examples in the net. I have seen examples of joining two datatables, done that, no problem there. Now i want to join three datatables. And there's nothing i can find out there.For example i have a 3 datatables:
I am trying to convert my EnumerableRowCollection into a DataTable, but I can't see the CopyToDataTable method. The enm.CopyToDataTable() has the blue saw tooth line under it with error saying " 'CopyToDataTable' is not a member of 'System.Data.EnumerableRowCollection' ". I have set a Reference to System.Data, System.Data.Linq, and System.Data.DataSetExtensions. I thought the CopyToDataTable method was part of the System.Data.DataSetExtensions, right? Anyone know why I can't access this method?
How can I use dynamic fields in LINQ in the PART OF THE where query? I mean that I want to write where x = *dynamic fields* I want to do the select query in all of the tables that are in the dataset, not on one datatable.
i am having 2 tables one table stores the WEEK-days another table stores the WEEK-days + other fields.i need the LINQ query to return all WEEK-days + other fields just like SQL LEFT JOIN query so far i did is [code]....
The query works but only retrieve the joined rows, i want to retrieve all rows in the first datatable.My current query:
vb.net Dim q = From regE In (From registoE In _dtRegistosAEnviar.AsEnumerable Group registoE By colaborador = registoE.Field(Of String)("Colaborador") Into grupoE = Group Select New With {
When the user clicks an "Edit" button on my form, I want a box to come up which allows the user to edit a DataTable in a strongly-typed DataSet. What's the best way to do this?
I have code running in the Datatable.ColumnChanging event in my dataset. This dataset underlies a form and conventional drag/drop controls are in place for data entry.when the event triggers and runs, I am running code in the form that checks the dataset.HasChanges property. It is showing False. But this is immediately after the ColumnChanging event has been triggered.Okay, I see by others posts and MSDN that .HasChanges will only be true after moving off the row with the changed column. I have also noted lots of discussion about the advanced binding property of DataSourceUpdate Mode, but that does not address this issue.I guess I can do this by checking the state of the row for the binding source. Just seems odd that the event behind the dataset can be triggered and that does not change the dataset.HasChanges property.
I have tried everything I can to get beyond this error which shows below as <<<<< error here. It is trying to fill a dataset from a data adapter. If I change the SELECT statement to just SELECT * FROM xTable I get the correct number of records in each table. But anytime I try with a more complex statement I get the error message shown below which indicates System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet dataSet. I've completely erased all data and entered a new set of test data so I know there is no problem with relationships. Each table has primary key which is foreign key in other table. IS there something wrong with the Imports section: Imports System
i am trying to copy data from a standard Dataset to a Type Dataset (XSD) of same table structure. i want to use Automapper to do that one. So how can i do that using automapper?
I have two Datagrids, One grid has all the customers garments on it with style number and contact length. The other grid has the users who have garment issued to them. the style number is in both grids. I need to loop through the users grid and say if the contract number is 1 from the first grid then the contract date on the second grid will be todays date + 365 days (year contract) I have looked at using a stored procedure and also a for each command but I am just getting stuck with it all. [Code]
I have a problem saving a dataset which contains rows that i have imported from another dataset. i can successfully view the imported rows in a gridview but i cannot commit the rows back to the database.
I have a listbox on my xaml form that I bound to a List(Of MyType) property. I populated this list like so:
Dim fields As List(Of CheckableFields) = New List(Of CheckableFields) Using context As ITIPEntities = New ITIPEntities() Try[code]....
Now I'm at the point where the user selects the fields they want included in a report and I need to iterate over the required fields. This is my linq query:
For Each checkedField In _requiredFields If checkedField.IsChecked Then If checkedField.FieldData IsNot Nothing AndAlso checkedField.FieldData.Trim IsNot String.Empty Then[code].....
