View 1 RepliesI am designing a form to Enter new City Name list where i accept following fields
CityName, District, State, Country, Pin.
because a State names and Country names can be retrived from earlier entries, i want to allow user to select desired name from a list in combo box or a list in Auto Complete Custom Source for text box, to do this i have added a Table Adapter to underlying DataSet having Query "SELECT DISTICT STATE FROM CITY ORDER BY STATE".
Now, how do i use this Table Adapter to fill the ComboBox List without binding
And also Custom Source List for TextBox.
I am having difficulties with Filling a dataset. It seems to be automatically assigning a datatype to the column based off of the first field of data it finds in that column. The column sometimes contains an integer, but it may also contain letters and numbers. If the first field is an integer, it says the fields in the column that contain a letter are DBNull. I'd like for the entire dataset to be formatted as a string/text type since I do not know what the values will be that I'm importing 100% of the time. How do I tell the dataset to expect a certain datatype for all columns and rows i'm going to import?

However, the second combobox is populated with the appropriate values and then I have to choose again the value for the first one. This is the code:

I am trying to fill a combo box using a dataset and data adapt. I am struggling too work out how to do it. I thought it would have been easy but I was wrong. i can set the text to read the first line of the colomn but nothing else. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with what I have to do. I think I have to increment inc and add a line underneath but I don't know how to do that
comboMaps.Text = datSet.Tables("TheLastShot").Rows(inc).Item("Maps")
ok normally when i fill data i do it this way adapter.Fill(dataset, "table1") However instead of using Strings, i prefer using enums so for example i have:
public enum Tables
T1
T2
end Enum
but since adapter.fill does not provide an "integer" argument when i add i had to convert it to a string as such adapter.Fill(dataset, cstr(Tables.T1)). i find this "dirty" and was wondering if there is a better fix
The SQL string won't return data from Access. I've tested this exact SQL String in Access and it works fine.First of all, Am I getting a SQL query from Access in the proper manner?Second... should I be using a stored procedure for this? Or is making a query from tables like this a good practice? Third, if I'm doing it right, why won't Access query return and fill my dataset?These are the results I'm getting.
Connection State = 1
Tables in Dataset = 0
Where am I going wrong?

[code]when I run my program and press this button Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles exceptionsButton.Click..I have my date range within a time that I know that my dataset should produce a result, but when I put a line break in my code here: adapter.Fill(ds)and look at it in debug, I show a table value of 0. If I run the same query that I have to produce these results in sql analyser, I see 1 result. Can someone see why my query on my form produces a different result than the sql analyser does? [code]I can also verify that the variables are passing the correct values. Can anyone please assist as to why this isnt working?

I have a dataset in my application that I fill using tableadapters like this:
Class Form1:
sub new()
Database = new Database
end sub
Class Database:
sub new()
tblLalalalaTableAdapter.Fill(DataSet.tblLalalala)
end sub
I am told it is too early to call the tableadapter.fill method inside the constructor. If the database is unavailable now, the application won't even start. It will just kinda crash. What is the proper way to do this? When should I call the tableadapter.fill methods?
I have a varbinary(MAX) field in my MS SQL Server database. The SqlDataAdapter.Fill() method takes a relatively long time (in LAN). I want to show progress for the SqlDataAdapter.Fill() method itself, using a ProgressBar.
Note: I know how to deal with UI controls and how to implement multi-threading.
i would like to know something more relating to parameters. i have always been adviced to use parameters but i am bit confused as to how to use parameters while filling a dataset like if i am using a oledbcommand i can always use paramters but how do i parameterise the following :
dgMastDet.DataSource = Nothing
myBindingPenBase = Nothing
txtCd.DataBindings.Clear()

i am using the above code to filter a list in the dgv as a help dialog for the selection of a master.my prob. is the now xFilter is to be typed in a regional language. so it is bound to have an ' as a character at some point or the other and if that comes in the char. then it will b giving me an error.. so how do i use it as a parameter ?
below is my code:
myCommand = New SqlCommand("SELECT VisitorID, VisitorName, Skill FROM tblVisitor LEFT JOIN tblSkill ON tblVisitor.SkillID = tblSkill.SkillID", myConnection)
myAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(myCommand)[code]....
then it catch an error as Incorrect Syntax near". which it points to myAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "tblVisitor") not the Select command.
I recently updated an app that I wrote to allow the clients to run the app in read only mode disconnected from the database by serializing the typed dataset, and when they are offsite/offline instead of connecting to the database the serialized dataset is loaded. This has been working great and then I hit a major snag.
A majority of the graphs and reports are based on sql views that are typed views in the dataset. Of course offlline the tableadapters cannot run the sql views.
Does anyone know a way to run/fill the view with the already loaded dataset? I can add rows clientside so I'm inclined to believe there must be some way to fill the view clientside but I've been at this for a number of hours now and not making any real progress.
When I use a command such as:
Me
.TableAdapter.Fill(Me.SomeDataSet.Table)
I am going out to the database, gathering the requested information and filling the dataset. Therefore, everytime I add a query to a table adapter, it is also going to the database to get the information. So, my question is, how do I fill a table in a data set with all the records in the database table and then, filter the information I've already collected in the dataset without going back out to the database again?
finally given up trying to make it work with my stored procedure.

Was updating a project and all of a sudden the auto-filling of a WebBrowserControl's Dropdownbox stopped working. Here is the HTML of the Input box:
[Code]....
I think it is the "onkeyup" thing that isn't getting fired properly so the dropdown list isn't updating itself... it was working fine before, and now, with no changes, it just stopped working. can someone take a look at my code and see if they spot anything? EDIT: attached an image of the dropdown box in question. as I type, it does the lookup. (using the onkeyup event). I am setting the value of the dropdown to the five digit code at run-time, trying to trigger the onkeyup event to get it to get the full line, but it won't work.

I tried the code below but unfortunately, all i get is a combobox with U,s,e,r,s, as each line in the items collection and not the filenames of the relevant files.
the DirGetPath("Users") Function below returns my default document and application paths and appends "Users" to the end as the relevant files are stored in that Folder.
All I get is a combo box with the items as U, s,e,r,s (i.e. Users spelled out).
I tried all of the following as alternative methods too:
System.IO.Path.GetExtension()
System.IO.Path.GetFileName()
System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension()

How to update combobox values coming from a dataset if I change the connection string. The connection string takes effect but doesn't update the dataset tied to the combobox.

the problems is: whenever the index is changed in one combobox, it's automatically changed in the other one too.
