How to get specific character in listbox

I have a listbox in which my selected products are stored like this ...
'Product name'.padright(30) 'price' 'quantity'
listBox1.Items.Add(details.Name.PadRight(30) + details.Price.ToString() + " " + 1 );
but when I read price of a product it selects price and quantity
string currentPriceString = foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(30), "");
string quantityString = foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(33), "");
I only want price in currentPriceString and quantity in quantityString
here is complete code of this method
private void ProductButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Button ProductButton = sender as Button;
DataAccess dataAccess = new DataAccess();
int ProductID = Convert.ToInt32(ProductButton.Tag);
Details details = dataAccess.ReadProductDetails(ProductID);
decimal price = details.Price;
string foundItem = CheckProductInListBox(details.Name);
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(foundItem))
{
string currentPriceString = foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(30), "");
decimal currentPriceValue;
string quantityString = foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(33), "");
int quantiy;
MessageBox.Show(currentPriceString);
if (Decimal.TryParse(currentPriceString, out currentPriceValue))
{
quantiy = Convert.ToInt16(quantityString);
currentPriceValue += price;
quantiy++;
string newItem = details.Name.PadRight(30) + currentPriceValue.ToString() + quantiy.ToString();
int index = listBox1.Items.IndexOf(foundItem);
listBox1.Items[index] = newItem;
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Error");
}
}
else
{
listBox1.Items.Add(details.Name.PadRight(30) + details.Price.ToString() + " " + 1 );
}
}
private string CheckProductInListBox(string name)
{
foreach (string item in listBox1.Items)
{
if (item.Contains(name))
{
return item;
}
}
return String.Empty;
}

On replacing (foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(33), "");), you are just removing the name part from the string, so the price and quantity will be there for sure.
You should can try this code,
// suppose your found text is like this,
//foundItem = "AMIT".PadRight(30) + "200" + " " + "1";
You can get price and quantity separately like below:
string currentPriceQuantityString = foundItem.Replace(details.Name.PadRight(30), "");
//currentPriceQuantityString => "200 1"
string[] strArray = currentPriceQuantityString.Split();
string currentPriceString = strArray[0]; //currentPriceString => "200"
string quantityString = strArray[1]; //quantityString => "1"
Side note:
I guess your line:
listBox1.Items.Add(details.Name.PadRight(30) + details.Price.ToString() + " " + 1 );
..should be:
listBox1.Items.Add(details.Name.PadRight(30) + details.Price.ToString() + " " + "1" );

Uploading a file to folder

With the code below I am able to save files to folder.
My problem is only two upload fields are mandatory and the remaining three are not. The code works if all the upload fields have a files selected otherswise its throws a NullReferenceException.
if (AnnualReport != null || ProjectReports != null || Publications != null || Other != null || RegistDoc != null) {
int filesize = AnnualReport.PostedFile.ContentLength;
int filesizeP = ProjectReports.PostedFile.ContentLength;
int filesizePub = Publications.PostedFile.ContentLength;
int filesizeOther = Other.PostedFile.ContentLength;
int filesizeReg = RegistDoc.PostedFile.ContentLength;
if (filesize > 2097152 && filesizeP > 2097152 && filesizePub > 1048576 && filesizeOther > 1048576 && filesizeReg > 1048576) {
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "popup", "alert('Maximum File size For Annual/Project reports is 1.5MB and for the Publications/Other Attachemnets is 1MB');", true);
} else {
const string ReportDirectory = "REPORTS/";
//Other Document
string OtherPath = ReportDirectory + Other.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtensionOther = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Other.FileName);
int iterationOther = 1;
while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(OtherPath))) {
OtherPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtensionOther, "-", iterationOther, ".pdf");
iterationOther++;
}
//Registration Document
string RigisDocPath = ReportDirectory + RegistDoc.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtensionRegis = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(RegistDoc.FileName);
int iterationRE = 1;
while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(RigisDocPath))) {
RigisDocPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtensionRegis, "-", iterationRE, ".pdf");
iterationRE++;
}
//Annual Reports
string ReportPath = ReportDirectory + AnnualReport.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtension = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(AnnualReport.FileName);
int iteration = 1;
while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(ReportPath))) {
ReportPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtension, "-", iteration, ".pdf");
iteration++;
}
//Project Report
string ProjecttPath = ReportDirectory + ProjectReports.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtensionP = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(ProjectReports.FileName);
int iterationP = 1;
while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(ProjecttPath))) {
ProjecttPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtensionP, "-", iterationP, ".pdf");
iterationP++;
}
//publication
string publicationPath = ReportDirectory + Publications.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtensionPub = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Publications.FileName);
int iterationPub = 1;
while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(publicationPath))) {
publicationPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtensionPub, "-", iterationPub, ".pdf");
iterationPub++;
}
ProjectReports.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(ProjecttPath));
AnnualReport.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(ReportPath));
Publications.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(publicationPath));
RegistDoc.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(RigisDocPath));
Other.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(OtherPath));

The code you posted is very poorly formated. However, the solution to your immediate problem is to move the null checks down to each individual document.
Instead of doing a huge if line (which has questionable logic, as it only checks if ANY of the documents were uploaded)
You can just check if the required documents are present. (looking at your exising code, present means document name object is not null)
If not, throw an error.
If they are, then proceed with the rest of the code, but wrap the individual processing of optional documents in their own null check if-s.
ie.
if (AnnualReport != null) {
//the block that does stuff with the anual report object
}

I did beak down the code into diferent methods like #irreal suggested, like below;
public void PublicationReporting() {
//connection for the datareader
string csoWConn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["RegisterCon"].ToString();
SqlConnection csoW_connection = new SqlConnection(csoWConn);
string database = csoW_connection.DataSource.ToString();
csoW_connection.Open();
if (Publications == null)
{
Publications.Dispose();
////
String MyString = #"UPDATE tb_Quadrennial_Report SET PublicationsPath='' WHERE Org_ID = '" + Accrediated_Orgs.SelectedValue + "'";
SqlCommand MyCmd = new SqlCommand(MyString, csoW_connection);
int LastInsertedRecordID;
LastInsertedRecordID = Convert.ToInt32(MyCmd.ExecuteScalar());
}
else
{
int filesizeP = Publications.PostedFile.ContentLength;
if (filesizeP > 2097152)
{
ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "popup", "alert('Maximum File size For Publication is 2.0 MB');", true);
}
else
{
const string ReportDirectory = "REPORTS/";
//publication
string publicationPath = ReportDirectory + Publications.FileName;
string fileNameWithoutExtensionPub = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(Publications.FileName);
int iteration = 1; while (System.IO.File.Exists(Server.MapPath(publicationPath)))
{
publicationPath = string.Concat(ReportDirectory, fileNameWithoutExtensionPub, "-", iteration, ".pdf");
iteration++;
}
Publications.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(publicationPath));
String MyString = #"UPDATE tb_Quadrennial_Report SET PublicationsPath='" + publicationPath + "' WHERE Org_ID = '" + Accrediated_Orgs.SelectedValue + "'";
SqlCommand MyCmd = new SqlCommand(MyString, csoW_connection);
int LastInsertedRecordID;
LastInsertedRecordID = Convert.ToInt32(MyCmd.ExecuteScalar());
}
}
}
I then called it o the click event
try{
PublicationReporting();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
pgError.Text = "Publication Exception Message: " + ex.Message;
}
finally
{
csoW_connection.Close();
}
From here it was pretty easy to figure out the problem.
I just needed to dispose the content in the upload field if no file was selected like this
public void PublicationReporting() {
//connection for the datareader
string csoWConn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["RegisterCon"].ToString();
SqlConnection csoW_connection = new SqlConnection(csoWConn);
string database = csoW_connection.DataSource.ToString();
csoW_connection.Open();
if (Publications == null)
{
Publications.Dispose();
////
String MyString = #"UPDATE tb_Quadrennial_Report SET PublicationsPath='' WHERE Org_ID = '" + Accrediated_Orgs.SelectedValue + "'";
SqlCommand MyCmd = new SqlCommand(MyString, csoW_connection);
int LastInsertedRecordID;
LastInsertedRecordID = Convert.ToInt32(MyCmd.ExecuteScalar());
}
else{
//program continues}

Using string from public static void in private bool C#

So I am trying to validate a string I received from a MySQL database but for some reason cannot access. I am sure this is a dumb question but can anyone help me out? I feel like it might be related to the public vs private and the static but after playing around with every combination I can think of to pass through the variables, it still keeps giving me errors. Any ideas?
string failReason = "";
int valid = 0;
public static void getNewRow()
{
try
{
string getNewRow = "SELECT * FROM appointments WHERE valid IS NULL";
DbConnection mysqlDB = new DbConnection();
MySqlCommand mysqlCommand = new MySqlCommand(getNewRow, mysqlDB.GetLocalMySQLConnection());
MySqlDataReader reader = mysqlCommand.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
int id = reader.GetInt32("id");
string accountID = reader.GetString("accountID");
string appDate = reader.GetString("appDate");
string appTime = reader.GetString("apptime");
string patientName = reader.GetString("patientName");
string appPhone = reader.GetString("appPhone");
string appPhone2 = reader.GetString("appPhone2");
string smsPhone = reader.GetString("smsPhone");
string special = reader.GetString("special");
string email = reader.GetString("email");
string provider = reader.GetString("provider");
string location = reader.GetString("location");
string other = reader.GetString("other");
Console.WriteLine("ID: " + id);
Console.WriteLine("AccountID: " + accountID);
Console.WriteLine("Appointment Date: " + appDate);
Console.WriteLine("Appointment Time: " + appTime);
Console.WriteLine("Patient Name: " + patientName);
Console.WriteLine("Phone 1: " + appPhone);
Console.WriteLine("Phone 2: " + appPhone2);
Console.WriteLine("SMS Phone: " + smsPhone);
Console.WriteLine("Special: " + special);
Console.WriteLine("Email: " + email);
Console.WriteLine("Provider: " + provider);
Console.WriteLine("Location: " + location);
Console.WriteLine("Other: " + other);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException);
}
}
private bool validName()
{
if (patientName.Length < 20)
{
failReason = "Bad Name";
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
private bool validName()
{
if (patientName.Length < 20)
{
failReason = "Bad Name";
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}

patientName exists only within the scope of getNewRow. You need to make that a class-scoped variable (like you did with failReason if you want to use them anywhere outside of getNewRow. You can also pass them as parameters, but I don't see that your methods have parameters to begin with.

string patientName = reader.GetString("patientName");
is local to
public static void getNewRow()
make it as such:
static string failReason = "";
static int valid = 0;
static string patientName = string.Empty;
public static void getNewRow()
{
try
{
string getNewRow = "SELECT * FROM appointments WHERE valid IS NULL";
DbConnection mysqlDB = new DbConnection();
MySqlCommand mysqlCommand = new MySqlCommand(getNewRow, mysqlDB.GetLocalMySQLConnection());
MySqlDataReader reader = mysqlCommand.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
int id = reader.GetInt32("id");
string accountID = reader.GetString("accountID");
string appDate = reader.GetString("appDate");
string appTime = reader.GetString("apptime");
patientName = reader.GetString("patientName");
string appPhone = reader.GetString("appPhone");
string appPhone2 = reader.GetString("appPhone2");
string smsPhone = reader.GetString("smsPhone");
string special = reader.GetString("special");
string email = reader.GetString("email");
string provider = reader.GetString("provider");
string location = reader.GetString("location");
string other = reader.GetString("other");
Console.WriteLine("ID: " + id);
Console.WriteLine("AccountID: " + accountID);
Console.WriteLine("Appointment Date: " + appDate);
Console.WriteLine("Appointment Time: " + appTime);
Console.WriteLine("Patient Name: " + patientName);
Console.WriteLine("Phone 1: " + appPhone);
Console.WriteLine("Phone 2: " + appPhone2);
Console.WriteLine("SMS Phone: " + smsPhone);
Console.WriteLine("Special: " + special);
Console.WriteLine("Email: " + email);
Console.WriteLine("Provider: " + provider);
Console.WriteLine("Location: " + location);
Console.WriteLine("Other: " + other);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.InnerException);
}
}
private static bool validName()
{
if (patientName.Length < 20)
{
failReason = "Bad Name";
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}
private static bool validName()
{
if (patientName.Length < 20)
{
failReason = "Bad Name";
return false;
}
else
{
return true;
}
}

You should decide to make all your methods static or not. You cannot call a non static method from a static method.

Dynamic Crystal Report using Dataset, Microsoft Access Database

//Open Database Conexion
miconexion.Open();
retorna = 1;
}
catch (OleDbException ex){

System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException(0x80004005): Unspecified Error

Through a series of loops and Database calls (Select statements only) saved as datatables I am generating a .txt file with the values. It runs fine for a little while (19 rows...19 full loop cycles) then I get a runtime exception being thrown by connection.Open()
I have the entire loop inside a try catch block in order to catch the exception and produce the message then 2 blank lines then the stack trace.
I have tried to read this and figure out what to do but I am a bit of a Novice when it comes to DB connections. I have looked elsewhere but do not seem to find a question that quite fits my situation.
FYI: C# 4.0 Windows Form Application, Access DB
I am hoping to find some suggestions on where to begin looking. I am positive that my connection is closed when this error is thrown due to the validation i implemented as shown here:
internal IDbConnection GetConnection()
{
try
{
var connection = _assemblyProvider.Factory.CreateConnection();
connection.ConnectionString = _connectionString;
_connectionState = connection.State.ToString();
if (_connectionState == "Open")
GetConnection();
else
{
connection.Open();
}
return connection;
}
catch (Exception exept)
{
throw new Exception(exept.ToString() + "\n\n" + exept.StackTrace.ToString());
}
}
This method is being called from here:
public DataTable ExecuteDataTable(string commandText, string tableName, DbParameterCollection paramCollection, CommandType commandType)
{
DataTable dtReturn;
IDbConnection connection = null;
try
{
connection = _connectionManager.GetConnection();
dtReturn = _dbAdapterManager.GetDataTable(commandText, paramCollection, connection, tableName, commandType);
}
finally
{
if (connection != null)
{
connection.Close();
connection.Dispose();
}
}
return dtReturn;
}
public DataTable ExecuteDataTable(string commandText, string tableName, CommandType commandType)
{
return ExecuteDataTable(commandText, tableName, new DbParameterCollection(), commandType);
}
public DataTable ExecuteDataTable(string commandText)
{
return ExecuteDataTable(commandText, string.Empty, CommandType.Text);
}
and
//read from DB using a SQL statement and return a DataTable
internal static DataTable readDB(string SQL)
{
var dbHelper = new DbHelper();
using (IDbConnection connection = dbHelper.GetConnObject())
{
return dbHelper.ExecuteDataTable(SQL);
}
}
Here is the loop (its kinda long and could probably be done better but I just want to find why its breaking after its worked several times)
The exception is thrown from the line that Reads:
