Convert A Datatable Using A Reference Datatable Asp.net?
Apr 26, 2012
I am finding difficulties to convert a datatable to a new datatable using a reference datatable. My question is confusing and I am not good at explaining things so I drew a picture (see below).I have two datatables on memory and I need to create the third datatable using the second mapping table for reference. The column names are just for example and it can't be hardcoded.
I have read many posts on this topic; among them and most recently .NET - Convert Generic Collection to Data Table. Unfortunately, all to no avail.
I have a generic collection of structures :
Private Structure MyStruct Dim sState as String Dim lValue as Long Dim iLayer as Integer End Structure
Dim LOStates As New List(Of MyStruct) I need to fill a DataTable with this list of structures but have no idea how to go about doing this. I am using vb.net in Visual Studio 2008.
I am trying to reference a DataTable and I do not know how to achieve this. I would like to assign dtTmp to dtTarget(i) through the reference dtCurr. Is it possible to achieve that in VB.NET?Private dtA, dtB As DataTable
Dim dtTarget() As DataTable = {Me.dtA, Me.dtB} For i As Integer = 0 To dtTarget.Length - 1 dtTmp = New DataTable() 'Do something to dtTmp assign the new table to the reference dtTarget(i) = dtTmp
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]
I have a datatable and I apply a filter to the defaultview.rowfilter property of that datatable. If I then loop through the rows collection of the datatable, will I only be able to see those rows that the filter applies to, or will it loop through all the rows?
I am working on a project that takes an xml schema and xml data files and places them into a DataTable, the 2 files are generated from a working table that i have written to disk. I wish to load these 2 files into a DataTable. Here is What i have
vb.net Friend Function CreateTable(ByVal tableName As String) As Boolean Dim table As New DataTable(tableName) table.ReadXmlSchema(tableName & ".xsd")
[code]....
this however produces the following error on line 3
Quote:
System.ArgumentException was unhandled Message=DataTable 'get_item_list' does not match to any DataTable in source.
get_item_list is the parameter passed into this function (tableName)
I have a datagridview bound to a datatable setting its datasource property to the datatable. I would like to have a child form that contains a list of columns associated with the datatable that contains a checkbox that will allow the user to hide and show the columns ( I do not know the best control to use here) (I assume this is the easy part as All i need to do is loop through each of the datatable's columns to get the column name)
now I would like save these visible columns on some event like form_closing so that the next time the user opens the form up it will remember the settings
I came across a problem with using a BindingSource as my DataGridViews.DataSource. Whenever I applied a filter to a column in the BindingSource and the user makes changes that don't match the column filter the DataGridViewRows would automatically disappear. A similar thing would happen when applying a Sort to a column. If the user made any changes the DridGirdViewRows would automatically sort causing rows to be moved around. This was not ideal for my application and there isn't anyway to stop this from happening with the BindingSource.
To correct this issue I have to use subsets of data. I use a DataView to apply the filter and sort to the main DataTable, which creates the subset DataTable.The problem is when I use the DataView.ToTable method I loose the Primary Key and RowError information. So I have to reapply this information everytime the user filters or sorts the DataGridView.Is there a better way to get a subset DataTable?[code]...
I have a datatable that has a resource in one field and hours used in another, it looks like this -
Resource Hours Used Manager 1 Accountant 1 Field Staff 2 Accountant 3 Manager 4 Manager 1 Administrator 6 Field Staff 4 Manager 0.5 Administrator 1
What I want to do is be able to create a summary of the data table above that groups multiple occurrences of a resource and adds up the hours used for that resource, creating a summary that looks like this -
Resource Hours Used Manager 6.5 Accountant 4 Field Staff 6 Administrator 7
When I query a DataTable using LINQ, are the rows returned as references? Either way, is it possible to control this behaviour, so that rows are either returned as references or as new rows?My guess is that all objects are returned as references by default, since that seems to be the normal behaviour in most programming languages.
Is there a simple way to assign a populated datatable's columns to another empty datatable? That is, I want to copy a datatable's structure only but not its data.
I'm using vb.net 2010.I have a DataSet with a Table and data. MyDataSet1 which contains Table1 I want to create another table that is the same as the Table1 but without data, but it should have the columns, etc.
Now, I want to place the rows from foundrows into an empty data table.I did what I thought was the obvious but that only returns a bunch of rows with no data
I am trying to add NewRow to the database by using datatable in dataset, but before I do that I want to make sure that row is not already there. I create new row for the datatable I am working with, fill it with information. I fill datatable with the row from database that has the same primary key as my NewRow by using tableadapter.fill method, but when I do that my NewRow that was never added to the datatable is filled with information from database(and not information that I assigned to it). I count rows in my datatable before I fill it and it's 0, so why is my NewRow affected by Fill command? (I am using VB.NET 2005 Framework 2.0)
I have seen many examples of populating a listview from a datatable or converting a datatable to a listview but what I am trying to do is exactly the other way around.
How can I convert/copy the contents of a winform listview to a datatable?
[EDIT]
I have a listview with a context menu where users can multiselect items and choose one of the context menu options, I then loop the selected items and extract each selected row (listview item) and serialize it, instead of doing this I wanted to convert the listview to a datatable then add the datatable to a dataset and serialize the dataset.
convert a dataTable to List(of T).In Vb.net on .Net 3.5 If you know How To or maybe a link of somebody who did it.I check this on c# (from another stack question)
public static IEnumerable<T> ToEnumerable<T>(DataTable dt, Func<DataRow, T> translator) { foreach(DataRow dr in dt.Rows) {
I am trying to import a large array of integers stored as a csv file into a VB.Net DataTable called BeamMap. The .csv file consists only of integers, with a delimiter of ,, no quotes around the data (ie., 1,3,-2,44,1), and an end of line character of line feed and carriage return. All I want to do is get each integer into a DataTable cell with the appropriate rows and columns (there are the same number of columns for each row) and be able to reference it later on in my code. I really don't want anything more than absolutely necessary in the code (no titles, captions, headings, etc.), and I need it to be fairly efficient (the csv array is approx. ~1000 x ~1000).
I managed to Convert a Datagridview to Datatable, Now problem is the programmatically addded Columns Seem to end up at the end of the of the initial table layout[code]...
i am using following code to convert xml file to datatable but its just creating multiple tables (but without data) and i want tables with data..
Dim myDS As New DataSet Dim xmlStream As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(Server.MapPath("~xmldoc esult_availhotel.xml"))[code].....
I have a question about converting a datareader to a datatable. In my code, I have a datareader created in one class and passed to another class that I want to convert it to a datatable.
When I do this, it does not seem to work, as the table remains empty. If I do the conversion in the same function, it works fine.
Its only when I pass the datareader to another function that it stops working. Is this because the dr is closed or something? How do I overcome this problem? Any help would be great.
I'm trying to copy one row from DataTable to another, I looked almost everywhere and I can't find a reason why this is happening, I'm using ImportRow and still the New DataTable is empty. Here's one of the answers similar I found and It's still not working!:
Dim newTable As New DataTable Dim dsFrom As New DataTable For Each DBShoes In list Dim iShoeID As Integer
I have an asp.net application where I have a datatable ("DataTableA") that returns just one column ("ProductID").
I want to read each row of "ProductID", process some business logic, then copy both those columns (ProductID & ProductIDBusinessLogicValue) to DataTableB. This DataTableB is then displayed on the asp.net page.
What would bhe the best way to read each row of DataTableA ?
I am updating a data table (dt_report_crypt) from an encrypted csv file in the code below:I decrypt the colums and update the same dreport_crypt, such that it will contain de-crypted data.This part is working wellI however need to use this de-crypted datatable as a data source to update a second table(dt_report), using the sql SELECT command to filter relevant data,
