Hi there.
I have been thinking about this and have made a simple demo of something that I think might work. If you have the time would you give it a quick whirl to see if it might suit.
The demo consists of two forms each having a datagridview and a button, you will be able to work out the names of these controls from the code I will post. I will post the code for the two forms in separate posts, as it would otherwise be a very long post.
This is the test data I have used for the demo and if you could save it as TestData.csv in the directory with the executable for the demo, normally 'application-files-directory\bin\debug'
TestData.csv
Prop, Offer, Docs, Gtee, Figs
house, no, full, none, true
flat, true, part, complete, no
appt, no, no, yes, yes
bungalow, yes, full, no, no
mais, false, yes, no, comp
The code for the first form follows shortly.

Hi Henry, have a good weekend?
I copied the code into two forms but I'm getting an error in the collection code you sent over. The errors I'm getting are:
1. expected {
2. Invalid token '>' in class, struct, or interface member declaration.
The error occurs at:
public class FieldMappingDictionary : Dictionary>
I placed this code outside the public partial class ListEditorForm : Form. Should I place this code somewhere else?
Also, looks like I have a couple of things coming down the pipe today so I may be fairly busy today. Just want you to know incase you don't hear back from me until later today.
Thank you,
Brenton

Yes thanks, very restful.
I am a silly boy.
The errors are because in the reply box if you paste a < the editor replaces it with the html equivalent and the same with >.
If you replace all the '& gt;' with > and '& lt;' with <. all should be well.

Sorry Henry,
That is what I have and is giving the error. There are no '& gt;' or '& lt;' in the code. That must have happend when I copied and paste it into the reply. The error is occuring at public class FieldMappingDictionary : Dictionary>. I tried Dictionary <string, string> but it didn't work.

Hi Henry,
Almost there! I have one more problem. I am getting the error:

I keep forgetting that you are using VS2005.
Slight modification:

{
// if the key is already in the list
if (this.KeysContains(key)) // <================= Modified Line

if (!base[key].Contains(value))
{
// add the new value
base[key].Add(value);
}
}
else

// if the key ain't there, add it and a new values list
List<string> list = new List<string>();
list.Add(value);
base.Add(key, list);
}
}
public bool KeysContains(string key) // <=========== New Method, just iterates over keys collection, returns true if found
{
bool result = false;
foreach (string s in base.Keys)

break;

Incidentally I keep forgetting this.
You could save one step in your overall scheme, if loading the modified data into Excel is not a requirement.
SSIS can read XML directly, and both DataSet and DataTable have a method called WriteXML, which believe it, or not, writes their data (and/or schema) to an XML file.
As I said, if the Excel step is not a requirement, simply write the data to an XML file ready for SSIS.

Hi Henry,
Looks like I have added all the code I need and the code compiles without warnings but the dgv doesn't get populated. I belive the only place I needed to add code too is here. If I am wrong then please advise further.
private void ProcessMods()
{
// Create a copy of original table structure with
// standardized column names**
// load original file data into it
// then do a series of updates using the docsDictionary, and the
// other Dictionaries
// STEP THROUGH THIS TO WATCH UPDATE STATEMENT BUILDING
StringBuilder selectBuilder = null;
foreach (string key in this.docsDictionary.Keys)
{
foreach (string val in this.docsDictionary[key])
{
selectBuilder = new StringBuilder();
selectBuilder.Append("UPDATE TestData SET Documentation = ");
selectBuilder.Append(key);
selectBuilder.Append(" WHERE Documentation = ");
selectBuilder.Append(val);
string updateQuery = selectBuilder.ToString();
// execute the query here
// you know OleDbConnection, OleDbcommand etc.
// then go round for next mod
//This is where I added the connection
DataTable dFill = null;
String comString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + Path.GetDirectoryName(Path.GetFullPath(this.dataFile)) + @";Extended Properties=""Text;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited;IMEX=1\""";
using (OleDbConnection conCSV = new OleDbConnection(comString))
{
conCSV.Open();
OleDbCommand dbCommand = new OleDbCommand(updateQuery, conCSV);
OleDbDataAdapter dAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(dbCommand);
dFill = new DataTable();
dAdapter.Fill(dFill);
}
bindingSource1.DataSource = dFill;
dataGridView1.DataSource = bindingSource1;
}
// go round for next key
}
// then do same for next dictionary
}
Do I need to add code for a ShowDialog and capture the full path of the file? Also, the test file is in the debug folder. Maybe it would be easier to hardcode the path of the file in the com string. What do you think?
Thank you,
Brenton

Strictly speaking ProcessMods() was intended merely, to create a copy of the table containing client-data but with your standard column names (See the comments at start of the method). I have left that bit for you to do as I am not sure about the best method for that process. Then it should process all the updates retrieved from MappingForm. You could fill the grid during that operation, but it would slow it down enormously, although it would show progress.
The alternative would be to show the modifications after they are completed. In which case your dgv filling code should either be the very last thing in ProcessMods(), or immediately after the call to ProcessMods() in the MappingForm_Closed event handler (this would be my preference).
For ProcessMods() the parts left to be done are, as mentioned above, copying the data to a new table with proper column names (incidentally I suggested copying so that the original data remains intact, in case of accidents. ), and this bit:
which is immediately above your new dgv fill code.
bwood2020 wrote: Do I need to add code for a ShowDialog and capture the full path of the file?
Yes, for the production version, you probably would. Putting the test data in the debug folder was simply for convenience for what is a demo of a concept.
If you stepped through the query building bit, I hope that you could see that for each of your standardised pieces of data the method builds an update query for each of the versions the client has used. It might turn out that using a query is not the best way to perform this operation, but the point of the exercise is to show that the data required to do the mods, is in a format which will enable the changes to be done fairly easily.
I am currently looking at methods for copying the client data into a table with standard column names.
I'll be back with you shortly. Of course, if you already know how to do this, let me know.

There are no changes to MappingForm, at this time.
TestData.xml will be in the debug directory. When examining it you must remember that the code, as is, only corrects the 'Documentation' column.
I also found out why the FieldMappingDictionary gave you errors the first time, here is the corrected version:
public class FieldMappingDictionary : Dictionary<string, List<string>>
{
public void Add(string key, string value)
{
if (base.ContainsKey(key))
{
if (!base[key].Contains(value))
{
base[key].Add(value);
}
}
else
{
List<string> list = new List<string>();
list.Add(value);
base.Add(key, list);
}
}
}
Let me know what you think. Be gentle with me.

If I had more than two brain cells to rub together, I would have written this:
void MappingForm_Closed(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
this.docsDictionary = this.MappingForm.DocumentsDictionary;
this.ProcessMods();
this.testDataSet.Tables["ClientData"].WriteXml("ClientTestData.xml", XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);
this.testDataSet.Tables["StandardData"].WriteXml("StandardTestData.xml", XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);
}
This should make it easier to compare unmodified and modified data. You should also note that the column names have been modified in the StandardTestData.xml version.

Henry,
This is great! Very well organized and I like the idea of having the ability to contain the integrity of the original data set. I also like the idea of outputting to an xml file as well as comparing both the original data set to the standardized data set.
I did have to modify some of the code you sent over. I had to add <string> to List and <string, string> to the Dictionaries. Let me know if this is not correct and I will go back through and make the recommended changes.
I'm still having problems populating the dgv on form 1. Maybe it's that I have not added some functionality to it. On Form 1 I added a dgv and a button name dataGridView1 and btnGetValue. On Form 2 I added a dgv and a button named dgvDocumentation and btnOK. Am I forgetting anything? I have read through the code and it compiles but just can't pinpoint what's going on.
You’re the man Henry!!!

That sounds right.
I'll go through my designer code to see if I've forgotten to tell you something obvious.

Here is the designer code for the first form. Just replace the code in your form1.designer.cs file with it.
I think I'll go for a lie down in a dark room now.

Ha-ha, you have a very good sense of humor. It makes it more fun and adds to my dull and busy day. You are correct sir. You did have that. I am looking through Form 2 and I see I need to add something else to get this to work. One down and one to go. I will follow up with you tomorrow. Thanks again Henry and have a good night!

Hi Henry,
I was extremely busy yesterday but I was able to work on this demo for about an hour. As it turns out I am having difficulties getting the second form to work. I looked through the code again and saw that I was missing a combobox so I added that to the dgv; however this didn't fix the issue. Can you send the designer code for the second form when you get a chance please?
Thank you,
Brenton

Hi Henry,
Thank you for sending me the demo. Even though I was not able to get it to work, I was able to get my app working by dissecting the code you wrote. I'm sorry I caused you frustration and thank you again for helping me on this. I will close this out now and give you the rating you deserve.
Thanks again,
Brenton

Hello.
I have a application with a webclient. In that webclient I am loading a homepage with about 5 frames, but one of the frames are refreshing constantly each 30second.
That gives me problem when I want to use the source from another frame - because when I use IsBusy and it is refreshing the frame with constantly refreshing while I am navigating another frame, does the application think that frame is done navigating too, and then I of course get an error.
It happens very often, and stops the whole program.
So is there any way only to check one frame if it is done loading ?
Hope your guys can help me out.

Hi,
In my C# application, I need to convert EBCDIC data to ASCII. This EBCDIC data is stored as BLOB type in Teradata. This data also has packed decimals in it.
I tried the code i found on internet, which simply converts EBCDIC to ASCII. In that there a interger array of 256 characters only. But the characters which i need to convert,
char chrItem = Convert.ToChar(strEbcidic.Substring(i, 1));
returns number much higher then 256. So i get 'index out of bound of array exception'. The EBCDIC characters include ' ÁõÁõöôùô@@@@ðóùòùùðñ@ððððð' also.
Could any one please help me out here?
Thanks,
Deepa
