Make Gridview Checkbox Field Update Boolean Field In Database?

Feb 7, 2011

There are lots of questions about this but I've not been able to solve my problem using the answers to any of them (after many, many attempts..)

I'm working in vb.net creating an asp.net web application. I have an SqlDataSource and a GridView on my page.

I want to change the DoNotMail boolean value represented by a Gridview checkbox and automatically update in the database if the checkbox is checked from 0 (False, Will Mail) to 1 (True, Won't Mail) here is the code I used. [code]...

is it possible to do a two way sync on the entire gridview when the user hits a button so you don't have to do an update every time a row is changed? because the user might check the box and then check another box then uncheck a box and it would be a lot of updates...

Conversion From Type 'DBNull' To Type 'Decimal' Is Not Valid When Field Has Data?

Feb 7, 2012

I am pulling data from a local MSSQL database using a stored procedure, then send the data to a web service. Every part of the component works well except for a pesky problem will a DBNull being returned from the DataRow field, when I know that the field is not null and has valid data. The database and associated INSERT statements that add to this field are designed to not allow NULL entries. When I debug break the program on or right before the line that throws the error I see that the field has valid data for the current row.If I add a null check to the code (as below) the operation continues as normal:

Dim dataResultsTable = Me.myViewTableAdapter.GetData(int)
For Each myDataRow In dataResultsTable.Rows
If worker.CancellationPending Then

[code]....

Why is the read operation returning DBNull instead of the data in the database?

EDIT: Just to be clear, the operation does return the proper data, but the data is not being saved into the variable.

Rename File And Change Type

Oct 10, 2009

This is something that I'm curious about. Is it possible using OpenFileDialog to have user select, instead of Access Database File,a file with different name and type but keeping Access Database connection string intact ? I have no idea how you would go about attempting this-----I thought it might be better if the user opened a generic file instead of realizing that they were opening a Database File.Can you create Custom file Type to handle situation like this or do declare some type of Variable

Change The Value Of A Field

Mar 2, 2011

I'm trying to change the value of a field, and can't get it to work. I'm using the example they gave of how to read through a CSV file, looking and displaying each field. Everything works OK, and after I change the value it displays the new value, but when I look at the file I've created, it has the old value. I'm new to VB, so forgive me if it's something really dumb. Here's my code:

.net - Getting Base Field Type When Databinding To A Decimal (or Object) Property?

May 28, 2012

I've got a custom NumericEditor control that has a nullable Decimal property called Value. When I bind a data field to Value, I'd like to retrieve the underlying Type of the data that's bound, so that I can restrict the use of decimal places if the source field is an integral data type.I figure I'd have to do this in the BindingContextChanged event, but how do I get the Type of the data field from the binding itself? My Google-Fu is failing me at the moment.

In short, I'm looking for something like the GetValueType method mentioned in the following question: Simple databinding - How to handle bound field/property change. Winforms, .Net I imagine this method would also be handy if the Value property was an Object.

.net - Modify RegularExpression To Parse VCard/vCalendar To Allow A Particular Field Type?

Sep 6, 2009

I have an vCard application that needs to read vCard Data, and have found a RegularExpression which gets the FieldName, Encoding and FieldValue from the file, here it is below:

^(?<FIELDNAME>[w-]{1,})(?:(?:;?)(?:ENCODING=(?<ENC>[^:;]*)|CHARSET=(?<CHARSET>[^:;]*))){0,2}:(?:(?<CONTENT>(?:[^
]*=
){1,}[^
]*)|(?<CONTENT>[^
]*))

This Regular Expression Reads these kind of values fine:

ORG:Company
FN;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE;CHARSET=UTF-8:RoguePlanetoid

However I want it to read these values also

TEL;WORK;VOICE:0200 0000000

Without skipping them. How can I modify the RegularExpression so TEL;WORK;VOICE ends up as part of the "FIELDNAME" and 0200 0000000 is part of the "CONTENT".I am unfamiliar with complex RegularExpressions and cannot figure out how to modify it, there is a regular expression that gets these:

^(?:TEL)([^:]*):(?<TEL>[^
]*)

However it only gets the FieldName as "TEL" and I need the whole value for this so I can tell the numbers apart in my application.If possible the Regular Expression would read the WORK and VOICE elements also like the CHARSET and ENCODING in the current regular expression, so they can treated like an Attribute and Type for example, however anything which allows the Regular Expression to read the whole TEL;WORK;VOICE as the FIELDNAME will be fine.

Edit

^(?<FIELDNAME>[^:]{1,})(?:(?:;?)(?:ENCODING=(?<ENC>[^:;]*)|CHARSET=(?<CHARSET>[^:;]*))){0,2}:(?:(?<CONTENT>(?:[^
]*=
){1,}[^
]*)|(?<CONTENT>[^
]*))

Reads up to the first Colon which covers the Whole FieldName, however it would be nice to store each SemiColon Element in a seperate item such as ATTRIBUTE or TYPE.
