All of those solutions are fairly common, in fact I had already read that page. The one I want is very elegant. I know it exists because I have seen and used it but now I can't remember it!
On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question. - Charles Babbage

Yes I have, which is weird because I would have thought the ask tom authors would know.
What I am looking for actually exists but it is so hard to find (Trust me I am not jerking any chains). I am sure the method is a hack based on ETL functions but searching reveals nothing. I just wish I could remember the page where I originally read it. In fact, since I have had so much trouble finding it again, if I do refind it I will definately make it into an article. Even though CP isn't known for oracle buffs :p

I have another question regarding datasets and datarows/columns.
I populated a combobox with this:
SqlCommand cmdSelect = sqlConnection1.CreateCommand();
cmdSelect.CommandText = "SELECT EmpID,EmpName FROM Employees";
SqlDataAdapter sdaEmp = new SqlDataAdapter();
sdaEmp.SelectCommand = cmdSelect;
sdaEmp.Fill(dstEmp,"Employees");
cboEmployee.DataSource = dstEmp.Tables["Employees"];
cboEmployee.DisplayMember = "EmpName";
cboEmployee.SelectedIndex = 0;
Now what I want to do when the user changes the 'selected index' of the combo box, to grab the info in the corresponding EmpId column from the datatable above.
What would be the correct porocedure to accomplish this?
Thanx in advance!
Jude

Use event Onselected index change

I am sorry I didn't make question more clear. I know the event to use, but I do not know how to access the data in the datatable that matches the same row as the selected index. IE:
EmpName EmpID (Selected Index)
John Doe 123 0
Jane Doe 2112 1
Bob Smith 9765 2
Lillte Johnny 321 3
If the user selects Bob Smith from the cobmobox, the selected index is 2. How to I retrieve the EmpId from that row?

Hello,
I know this is a very common connectivity error but I am really stuck here. I am currently trying to access a DB via a BindingNaviagator control via .NET. I know the connection string is 100% correct as when I do the preview data on my TableAdapter the data comes through. When I go to fire the program and access these records, I get the SqlException - Login failed for user (user) error. Like I said I know this is a pretty general error, but any advice on where to continue looking would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks In Advance

That would suggest that the account the preview in Visual Studio is using is different to the account your application is using. This is possible if you are using a trusted connection as the account that will be used to access SQL Server will be the account of the currently running process.
I suggest you find out what account your application is using and set up the appropriate permissions on SQL Server, or change the account your application is running in.

I was thinking the same thing but I did the connection over and it still didnt work. I came to the conclusion that it was the DB settings not letting it connect because I actually created the DB on the server as opposed to the System Admin. So I had the SA make a new DB and it worked like a charm. I am not sure what settings were causing the remote connections to not be allowed but its all good now. Thanks for the response.

Hello ,
Here is the SQL I am trying to run against our database.
*****************************************************
SELECT * FROM Part WHERE (Company_Abrv = 'TSBI')
AND (Catalog_PartType = 'Component')
AND (TypeName = 'Generic')
AND (Version = 'Space Holder')
AND (KeyComponentName = 'SPACER')
AND ( Part_Number IN (SELECT Part_Number FROM PartAttributes
WHERE (TypeName = 'Generic')
AND (Version = 'Space Holder')
AND (KeyComponentName = 'SPACER')
AND (AttributeName = 'Inside Diameter'
AND AttributeValue <= 18))
********************************************************
the last part of the WHERE clause AttributeValue is a Varchar type column. But as we are building the SQL query dynamically we also might get integer values at times. So our query may look like the above.
So in this case I am trying to convert the AttributeValue column as an int or decimal type when it has a numerical or a decimal value.
so I am trying to do it like 'convert(decimal,AttributeValue) <= 18' but it doesn't accept it.
could some one please help me with how do I do it?
Thanks

Hi everybody,
Can anybody tell me the exact difference between
SqlCommand and SqlCommandBuilder.
Thanking you.
param

A Command object is used to execute scalar or non query commands to a database. You would set a command objects CommandText property to and sql statement that you want to run and then use it's ExecuteScalar or ExecuteNonQuery method to run it. Here is an example:
Dim conn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection(strMyConnectionString)
Dim cmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand()
cmd.CommandText = "UPDATE myTable SET col1='my value'"
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
A CommandBuilder object is used to automatically create Update, Delete, and Insert SQL statements for you, based on a Select statament that you supply. You would declare a DataAdapter object, set it's SelectCommand.CommandText property to your Select SQL statement. Then when you declare a CommandBuilder object, you include the dataadapter in the CommandBuilder's constructor parameter and it will automatically create the other statements for you when you run a DataAdapter. Here is an example:
Dim conn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection(strMyConnectionString)
Dim cmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand()
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM myTable"
Dim da As New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(cmd)
Dim cb As New SqlClient.SqlCommandBuilder(da)
da.Update(myDataTable)
If you hadn't of used a CommandBuilder, the program would have blown up on the da.Update(myDataTable) statement, because the adapter wouldn't have known how to insert new rows that had been added to the table, or delete rows that had been removed, etc.
|
|
|
|

An SQLCommand object can also be used to return query results. Under the covers, this is what happens in the DataAdapter - the command buider builds commandtext for the other sqlcommand instances used by the adapter, using the commandtext provided for the query or read command. SqlCommand instances can also be used to return query results as a datreader, which is like a fast forward-only cursor.

I'm not sure if I'm in the right forum, I'm looking at Categories and can't really find Reporting Services. I would like it if you can point me then I'll have this posted again. THanks!
Is it possible in Reporting services 2005 for parameter dependencies?
If I enter some values in Parameter1 and click 'View Reports',
I would like to inform user that Parameter2 cannot be left blank.
Thanks!
