Let us start from the assumption that the data which need to be filtered is there in a data table named myDataTable.

Now

DataView dataView = new DataView(myDataTable);
dataView.RowFilter = "Type ="+DropDownList1.SelectedText+" City="+DropDownLlist2.SelectedText;

DataGridView1.DataSource = dataView;
DataGridView1.DataBind();

Let me know if it helps.

Thanks laddie,
For ur concern. but i am fetching the data from database
not using any datatable i am simply fetching the count of the state avialable or not is it right procedure or not.
or else i can explain it more breifly like

criteria - dropdownlist
state - dropdownlist

city - text

i'll select criteria first and then state, if i want to know city wise then i enter city. these are the conditions

so please help me

thanks and regards

hi there,
i have a problem that how can check the value of datagridview is null ??

if i write

if (DataGridView1[5, a].Value.ToString() == null)

if (DataGridView1[5, a].Value.ToString().Contains (null))

if (DataGridView1[5, a].Value.Equals(null))

all gives the same error
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

for temporary i did

string aaa = DataGridView1[5, a].Value + "D";
                    if (aaa.Trim )== "D")

{
//Go on
}

All the best,

Did you try this?

DataGridView1[5, a].Value == DBNull.Value

Hi,

According to the exception it is quite clear that CLR bumped into a null value while evaluating
"DataGridView1[5, a].Value"

what means "DataGridView1[5, a].Value.toString()" if "DataGridView1[5, a].Value" is null ??

You might not assume DataGridView1!=null nor a!=null nor DataGridView1[5, a].Value!=null
though the following test should solve your problem :

if (DataGridView1[5, a]==null or DataGridView1[5, a].Value==null)
{
///
}

Hope it helps

string aaa = DataGridView1[5, a].Value + "D"; if (aaa.Trim )== "D")

I think your grid must be having only 5 records from 0 to 4.
So its not geting the 6th record.

Hello everyone,

Previously, I think if I am using namespace ns1, and declaring and defining a public class cs1 using C# Class Library project, I have to name the output DLL name to be ns1.dll. I have this idea because I noticed that Microsoft names the DLLs, like System.dll for name space System, System.Data.dll for name space System.Data.

Now I tried that I can name the output DLL name to arbitrary name (not ns1), like mylib.dll. Then the applications which use the DLL still work.

So, I think the conclusion should be, we can use arbitrary name which is not related to namespace. Right?

thanks in advance,
George

I assume the name of the assembly does't matter as long as you added your assembly to your project and the contents in the assembly is not changed.

Thanks zion417,

I think you are also not following the naming convension which Microsoft does (e.g. namespace.dll). Right? Smile | :)

George

It depends on my project.Normally we follow the same convension .Root.Child1.. etc. I was just saying the name of the "assembly" done actually matter.

Hello,

Other then Regex,
what you need is not implemented in the framework string class, AFAIK. (At least not in .Net 1.1)

The string class provides the IndexOfAny method, which only is able the search for chars.

But you could use a self written method!
Like this:
This method returns the startindex of the string which is found first.

public static int IndexOfAnyString(string TextToParse, string[] TextsToSearch)
{
	int index=-1;
	if(TextsToSearch!=null)
	{
		foreach(string actSearchText in TextsToSearch)
		{
			//Searchtext not null and not empty string
			if(actSearchText!=null && !actSearchText.Equals(string.Empty))
			{
				//call the string.IndexOf method
				index = TextToParse.IndexOf(actSearchText);
				if(index>=0)
				{
					//found a string;
					break;
				}
			}
		}
        }
	return index;
}

In .Net > 1.1, you could use the "Contains" method instead of "IndexOf"!

Call it like this:

string mainline = "Hello codeproject world";
int index = IndexOfAnyString(mainline, new string[] {"msdn", "codeproject ", "blablabla"});
//Will return: 6

This is just a basic implementation of the problem.

You could add some more features like:
case sensitivity (true/false)
out param string, which returns the matching string
returning an array of int index values for all search texts
.
.
.

Hope it helps!
