I've started creating an online quiz. I am using a DetailsView linked to a sqlDataSource.
Here's my code:
<asp:DetailsView ID="QuestionDetails" runat="server" AutoGenerateRows="False" DataKeyNames="QuestionID,QuizID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource_Quiz">
<Fields>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Text_Eng" SortExpression="Text_Eng" ShowHeader="False">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Text_Eng") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
<InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Text_Eng") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</InsertItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Text_Eng") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:RadioButton ID="Option1" AccessKey="1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Opt_1") %>' GroupName="AnswerOptions" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="Option_CheckedChanged" />
<br />
<asp:RadioButton ID="Option2" AccessKey="2" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Opt_2") %>' GroupName="AnswerOptions" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="Option_CheckedChanged"/>
<br />
<asp:RadioButton ID="Option3" AccessKey="3" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Opt_3") %>' GroupName="AnswerOptions" AutoPostBack="true" OnCheckedChanged="Option_CheckedChanged"/>
<br />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Fields>
</asp:DetailsView>
Note that i am not displaying all data retrieved from the sqlDataSource (there are other fields/columns as well) in the DetailsView.
Now, in my code behind, i am showing the next record by changing the PageIndex of the DetailsView upon clicking a button (NextButton) but at the same time, i need to retrieve some data of the currently displayed record so I've put the following in the button's click handler:
protected void NextButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
// Save off previous answers
DataRowView dr = (DataRowView)QuestionDetails.DataItem;
// Create Answer object to save values
Answer a = new Answer();
a.QuestionID = dr["QuestionID"].ToString();
a.CorrectAnswer = dr["CorrectAnswer"].ToString();
a.UserAnswer = selectedOptionRB.AccessKey.ToString();
ArrayList al = (ArrayList)Session["userAnswers"];
al.Add(a);
Session.Add("userAnswers", al);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Label2.Text = "Exception!";
}
if (QuestionDetails.PageIndex == QuestionDetails.PageCount - 1)
{
NextButton.Enabled = false;
}
else
{
QuestionDetails.PageIndex += 1;
NextButton.Enabled = false;
}
if (QuestionDetails.PageIndex == QuestionDetails.PageCount - 1)
{
NextButton.Text = "Finish the Quiz";
}
}
So when i run the code, i get "Exception!" displayed in my Label2 which i setup for testing.
What am i doing wrong?

I have an editable GridView but I would also like to have an add new row functionality, so I made a button using FooterTemplate for all editable fields and set CommandName="AddNew" . Everything looks as expected on the front end, but Add New Row cannot find txtGrantId, txtPotId or txtBudget at all and throws System.NullReferenceException 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'. The issue has to be in the code behind, but I am attaching the front end as well. The data source is pretty long but it does call OnRowCommand="gvPotsMoneyGrants_RowCommand"

I have an asp.net web page that allows for manual entry of a record, or an import from an excel spreadsheet to import multiple records.
After the records are added by either process, they display in a Gridview control (bound to a SQLDataReader). This allows the user to edit or delete a record before submitting the entire dataset for processing.
I'm using an Ajax Toolkit AsyncFileUpload control to handle the import. The UploadedComplete c# function runs properly and the records are inserted into the SQL table. The code then calls my DataBindGrid() function to refresh the grid. I can step through the code and see that every line is executing, however, it seems like it never actually finishes, even though stepping through debugging completes.
Two steps are not actually completing, the grid refresh and the label display that indicates to the user that the process is complete.
For testing purposes, I've added a linkButton that calls the BindDataGrid() when clicked. This works to refresh the grid and to also display the status label. It's not a permanent solution, it would be too risky to have a user remember to refresh, they are likely to think that all their records have already been submitted.
At first I thought my problem was trying to do more inside the UploadComplete function then just upload the file (I'm reading the Excel file that was uploaded), so I broke out the code and added a button for the user to click to initiate the actual data processing. This failed because although I could see the file name being saved into a hidden form during the UploadComplete function, when I went to read that hidden field, the data was no longer in it. I'm not loosing the values in any of the other hidden fields.
I've been researching this for 3 days and I'm really stuck. I'm assuming that I am having a problem with postback, but have no clue at this point.

I'm having problems with a web app. I have a gridview connected with SQL datatable and in the footer I have textboxes (or dropdownlists) and an "insert" button. The problem occurs when I click on the button, and want to insert new line in my SQL table. It does not read text (we need to put in some strings) from textboxes. Of course insert does not happen, since some of the data must not be null.
I have the same problem with Editing rows.
this is my code:
Gridview:

Code behind:
protected void BindGV()
{
//bind the SQL table to the GridView (no problem here)
}
protected void gvUser_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
//here I bind the dropdownlist (did not include it in code snippet,
//since firstly I need to get text from textboxes
}
protected void gvUser_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName.Equals("Insert"))
{
TextBox txtNewName = (TextBox)gvUser.FooterRow.FindControl("txtNewName");
TextBox txtNewLname = (TextBox)gvUser.FooterRow.FindControl("txtNewLname");
string NewName = txtNewName.Text; //this strings come up empty (just "")
string NewLname = txtNewLname.Text; //it should read from textboxes
AddRow(NewName, NewLname);
BindGV();
}
}
private void AddRow(string name, string lname)
{
//insert row into SQL datatable
}
EDIT:
Well it works now. Found a simmilar problem, and the author said he was able to get it work with adding EnableViewState="false" to the Gridview.
I tried and it worked. :)
Anyone here able to answer why would this work? And how will this correspond with other gv functions?
Try with this code - based on e.Item.FindControl
if (e.CommandName.Equals("Insert"))
{
TextBox txtNewName = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtNewName");
TextBox txtNewLame = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtNewLname");

This is my page load
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
PsaDataSet psaList = new PsaDataSet();
ViewState.Remove("psaList");
ViewState.Add("psaList", psaList);
ViewState.Add("psaUid", Guid.NewGuid());
if (psaList.PsaLink.DefaultView.Count == 0)
{
// Patch for view footer row when no data
PsaDataSet.PsaLinkDataTable tmpList = new PsaDataSet.PsaLinkDataTable();
PsaDataSet.PsaLinkRow tmpItem = tmpList.NewPsaLinkRow();
tmpItem.PsaUid = (Guid)ViewState["psaUid"];
tmpItem.PsaProductUid = Guid.Empty;
tmpItem.ProductId = 1;
tmpItem.Series = "test";
tmpItem.Rev = "test";
tmpItem.Firmware = "test";
tmpList.AddPsaLinkRow(tmpItem);
tmpList.AcceptChanges();
ViewState.Add("series", tmpItem.Series);
gridProduct.DataSource = tmpList;
gridProduct.DataBind();
}
}
else
{
//BindGrid((PsaDataSet)ViewState["psaList"], false);
}
}
private void BindGrid(PsaDataSet psaList, bool mustDataBind)
{
gridProduct.DataSource = psaList.PsaLink;
//if (mustDataBind)
//{
gridProduct.DataBind();
//}
}
This my onrowdatabound="gridProduct_RowDataBound"> method
protected void gridProduct_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
e.Row.Attributes["style"] = "display:none";
}
}
}
I want to add a condition (Based whit a test value inserted in page load) in the if(protected void gridProduct_RowDataBound method) for hiding just one time on page load??
Thank Frank!
I belive you can get the DataBoundItem from the row which is a type of "PsaDataSet.PsaLinkRow" and use that you get the ProductId, Series, etc. and do the condition that you require. Also, you have and if condition inside an if condition with the same condition for both. You only need one.
I am doing insert/update and delete in gridview. For that I am using ItemTemplate which contains labels to show the values. But when the gridview is in edit mode, the dropdown lists comes in place of that labels. I want to set the selected values of drop down lists to the values of labels. My drop down lists dont have datasource. I am binding dropdown list from 0 to 99. Below is the code for my edit method.
protected void grdUsedCatheters_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
try
{
grdUsedCatheters.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
BindCatheterGrid();
DropDownList ddlFrom = (DropDownList)grdUsedCatheters.Rows[e.NewEditIndex].FindControl("ddFrom");
DropDownList ddlTo = (DropDownList)grdUsedCatheters.Rows[e.NewEditIndex].FindControl("ddTo");
BindDropDowns(ddlFrom);
BindDropDowns(ddlTo);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
if (ex.HelpLink == null)
lblMessage.Text = ex.Message;
else
lblMessage.Text = ex.HelpLink;
lblMessage.CssClass = "ERROR";
}
private void BindDropDowns(DropDownList ddl)
{
for (int i = 0; i <= 99; i++)
ddl.Items.Add(i.ToString());
}
below is the part of markup of my gridview
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Cine Run">
<ItemTemplate>
From: <asp:Label ID="lblFrom" runat="server" ><%# Eval("CineRunFrom")%></asp:Label>
To: <asp:Label ID="lblTo" runat="server"><%# Eval("CineRunTo")%></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
From: <asp:DropDownList ID="ddFrom" runat="server" Width="50px">
</asp:DropDownList>
To: <asp:DropDownList ID="ddTo" runat="server" Width="50px">
</asp:DropDownList>
</EditItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
From: <asp:DropDownList ID="ddFromF" runat="server" Width="50px"> </asp:DropDownList>
To: <asp:DropDownList ID="ddToF" runat="server" Width="50px"> </asp:DropDownList>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
}
Retrieve the values of label's before setting grdUsedCatheters.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex and calling BindCatheterGrid() method and then after populating the DropDownLists set their selected value accordingly. Like this:
protected void grdUsedCatheters_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
try
{
Label lblFrom = (Label)grdUsedCatheters.Rows[e.NewEditIndex].FindControl("lblFrom"); //lblFrom is the ID of label
grdUsedCatheters.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
BindCatheterGrid();
DropDownList ddlFrom = (DropDownList)grdUsedCatheters.Rows[e.NewEditIndex].FindControl("ddFrom");
DropDownList ddlTo = (DropDownList)grdUsedCatheters.Rows[e.NewEditIndex].FindControl("ddTo");
BindDropDowns(ddlFrom);
BindDropDowns(ddlTo);
ddlFrom.Text = lblFrom.Text;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
if (ex.HelpLink == null)
lblMessage.Text = ex.Message;
else
lblMessage.Text = ex.HelpLink;
lblMessage.CssClass = "ERROR";
}
}
Edit
and also change your gridview markup like this:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Cine Run">
<ItemTemplate>
From: <asp:Label ID="lblFrom" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("CineRunFrom")%>' />
To: <asp:Label ID="lblTo" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("CineRunTo")%>' />
</ItemTemplate>
...
I think this example will work for you.
First you put hidden field in EditItemTemplate where u have put the Dropdownlist.
Set the value of hidden field as you set the value of label in ItemTemplate
See my code:
<asp:GridView runat="server" ID="gridExample" OnRowEditing="gridExample_RowEditing"
AutoGenerateEditButton="True" AutoGenerateColumns ="false" OnRowCancelingEdit ="gridExample_RowCancelingEdit" >
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblID" Text='<%# Eval("ID") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:DropDownList runat="server" ID="drpName">
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:HiddenField runat ="server" ID ="hdnId" Value ='<%# Eval("ID") %>' />
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblName" Text='<%# Eval("Name") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate >
<asp:TextBox runat ="server" ID="txtName" Text ='<%# Eval("Name") %>' ></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
protected void gridExample_RowEditing(object sender, GridViewEditEventArgs e)
{
gridExample.EditIndex = e.NewEditIndex;
BindGrid();
DropDownList dl=new DropDownList ();
dl = (DropDownList)gridExample.Rows[gridExample.EditIndex].FindControl("drpName");
FillDrops(dl);
HiddenField hdnId = new HiddenField();
hdnId = (HiddenField)gridExample.Rows[gridExample.EditIndex].FindControl("hdnId");
dl.Text = hdnId.Value;
}
