I have an update function that updates an sql server db table through a dataset. One of the fields in the table is an integer and accepts null values. So when I am populating the update function I need a way to enter a null in when the function wants an integer.
I tried to do it this way but _intDLocation = "" throws an exception

I have a function that takes in a number of parameters.. it then does a db insert.i have a foreign key on one of the fields (modelID)i want to pass a NULL if no model ID is selected.[code]but now i get an error saying: Nullable object must have a value.if i pass in a 0, it does not insert because it breaks the DB constraints.
View 4 RepliesBasically, when you set an Integer to "Nothing" it seems to equal the same value as if you were to set it to 0. So, in a function that returns an Integer how can I return something that will show that the function failed? In most cases I would use -1 or something but in this case I need to allow for negative values too.
Here's some more detailed information: I'm using the GetValue method of the Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey class to read a numeric value from the registry. The GetValue method has an optional argument that you can pass in that specifies what should be returned if the value did not exist, normally I would use Nothing but in this case because I am storing the returned value in an Integer then it is just the same as if the GetValue method returned 0 (which is a valid value in this case).
Example:
vb.net
Dim Reg As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine
Dim SubKey As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = Reg.OpenSubKey("SYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlTimeZoneInformation", False)

View 5 RepliesIf you assign a value to a nullable integer via a ternary operator, it can't become null..While this question may seem like a duplicate of many, it is actually being asked for a specific reason.Take this code, for example: Dim n As Integer? = If(True, Nothing, 1) In that code, the ternary expression should be returning Nothing, but it's setting n to 0. If this were C#, I could say default(int?) and it would work perfectly. Now it looks like I am going to have to ditch the ternary and use a regular If block, but I really want to use the ternary. If Nothing were truly VB.NET's equivalent to C#'s default, how can you explain this behavior?

I am working with a table that contains about 10,000 records of which I need to do additional processing on about 1500. The records I need to process are qualified by the field'Cataloged' = True. The problem I have is the table allows for True, False or Null values (I have no direct control of the table to change from allowing Null) for the field I need to test.I run into errors when the value of the field is Null and need to figure out how to determine its Null state prior to trying to qualify the field as True or False value to prevent the errors.
I have an ASP.NET application that crashes when a null date value is returned.
The code line is:
excelWorksheet.Cells("A" & xlRowCounter).Value = IIf(IsDBNull(dRow("sysdate")), "", Format(dRow("sysdate"), "MM/dd/yyyy"))
Error message:
ERROR: System.ArgumentException: Argument 'Expression' is not a valid value.
How would I check for a null date, and replace it with "" in my app ?
I'm trying to test a varbinary(max) field to see if it's null. I'm trying to figure out if it's a null or not in the select statement, hoping to avoid having to do this locally for every row of the returned dataset. This is the SQL I'm using,

I am trying to do a SQL query to see if an Address already exists in my database. My addresses are structure like this:
line1
line2
line3
city
state
zipcode
country
Sometimes line2 and line3 are NULL values in my database.I am using .NET TableAdapter and DataTable to make my query. When I try to pass in my line2 parameter (@line2) it is equal to a string with value = nothing. My database does not interpret this as NULL and says the records don't match, but I know they do? How do I pass in a string = nothing and have it compare to a NULL value in the database as being equal? I have tried string = DBNULL.value but won't compile.I have done similar comparisons with integers etc. using integer = Nullable (of integer) but this does not exist for strings.
I have in my DB a few number fields, but I would like put null values or empty values in some of this fields...

I've got a table that caches calculated values for certain dates. I want to use LINQ to select all rows where the calculated value fields are null.But when I use isNothing I get an error that LINQ can't translate this into T-SQL. Is there a way to select null values with link, like this...?
Dim var = From rec As Record In myDataContext.Records Where IsNothing(rec.calculatedValue) Select rec
Other posts on stackoverflow mostly discuss how to avoid or check for null values with LINQ.
Note: I can't just set cacluatedValue's default to -1 to flag records whose calculated value has not been set (and then select those records) because I run queries that sum/average the calculated values. Selecting nulls seems cleaner and less bug-prone.
Im writing an app which connects to a SQL Server database, via datasources / datatable.When Im looking at my .xsd I can see DataTables containing DataColumns. Each DataColumn has a 'NullValue' property which defaults to '(Throw exception)'.Because I have nulls in my tables I have gone through the fields and set all System.String fields to NullValue = 'Empty', System.int32 field to NullValue = 0.

I want to generate checkbox field using GridView and system will calculate how many field to display according to number of totalDay. If totalDay stored in database is 7, so upon calling the eventID it will generate 7 checkboxes, D1-D7 checkboxes field will appear; if totalDay is 5, it will generate 5 checkboxes, D1-D5 checkboxes field will appear.
In PHP, I manage to auto generate number of D field I want according to value totalDay. But I do not know how to code in VB. The PC Fair Event has duration 7 days, so it will display 7 checkboxes after user select event and booth to book: The Carnival 2012 has duration 5 days, so it will display 5 checkboxes after user select event and booth to book:
The code in PHP which can generate the checkbox:
$query = "select * from booths, eventinfo where booths.eventID=eventinfo.eventID && booths.eventID = ".$id."";
$_SESSION['EVENT_ID']=$id;
$result = mysql_query($query);
$result2= mysql_query($query);
