I am surprised that the previous code didn't work. I tried it using the pubs database and it worked fine. Make sure you close the database after calling DataBind. I tried closing before and got an error.
Following is my code:
<br />
private void BindListToDropDown()<br />
{<br />
string query = "select * from Authors";<br />
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, conn);
conn.Open();<br />
SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();<br />
this.DropDownList1.DataSource = dr;<br />
this.DropDownList1.DataTextField = "au_lname";<br />
this.DropDownList1.DataValueField = "au_id";<br />
this.DropDownList1.DataBind();<br />
conn.Close();<br />
}<br />

If you want to bind the data to the dropdownlist you will need to use the dataset fill function.
Page_Load
sqlDataAdapter1.Fill(dataSet11);
DropDownList1.DataBind();
that's it!
Hope it helps...

Tried this and got the message
An invalid data source is being used for DropDownList1. A valid data source must implement either IListSource or IEnumerable.
Thanks for the effort!

Hello,
I have a problem with Interbase/Firebird database. I need to monitor the changes in database in specific select. Therefore I have created a view and a trigger after_update on that view. But if there´s an update made directly on the table which is included in the view, an event is not raised. It is raised only when I make the update on the view. This behavior seems to me strange.
I thank you for ideas.

Hey dats not a great problem. Its the property of a view. If u create a trigger in table dat will perfectly work for a view. But in case of creating a trigger for a view it will not work on a table as only changes done on view can have an impact on the table but not for the triggers raised.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for your reply, but I think it doesn't solve my problem. I want to database raises the event only if some of the columns included in my view are updated.
For example: I have got two tables in database. T1 and T2. T1 consists of columns C11 and C12, T2 constists of columns C21,C22,C23,C24.
The view is:
Select C11, C22, C23 from T1 one, T2 two where one.C12=two.C24
I want to create trigger, which is raised when some of C11,C22 or C23 are updated.
Of course I can create a trigger on both tables, on event notification refresh view and check if it changes, but this the way I'd like to avoid because of much code writing and much data downloading.

Hello all,
If I have 2 tables, Inv1, col is "QTY" and Inv2, col is "InStock".
Can I take add qty and instock to gether, and then put the result in INSTOCK. Kinda of like an UPDATE.
Thanks!
|
|
|
|
|
You mean this:
update table2 set inStock=Instock+(select qty from table1 where table1.ID=table2.ID)
You will need to change the where clause.

In MSSQL has anyone got a way of returning, for example, 10 records, starting at the 20th record (or, more likely 25 records starting at the 25025th record)? I know about the TOP clause but, short of using a dreaded NOT IN... sub query which is horrendously slow, I really am at a loss.
Thanks
Drew.

Hi, I have implemented the code below used for accepting parameters to search on a table. Rather than use the standard dynamic sp approach, I decided to use this approach. What I want to know, is if this way would prove slower as I am evaluating Nulls using IsNull, compared to doing the same with Dynamic SQL:
use Northwind
CREATE PROCEDURE SearchProducts (
@ProductName NVARCHAR(40) = null,
@UnitPrice MONEY = null,
@UnitsInStock SMALLINT = null
)
AS
SELECT *
FROM Products
WHERE (IsNull(@ProductName, ProductName) = ProductName) AND
(IsNull(@UnitPrice, UnitPrice) = UnitPrice) AND
(IsNull(@UnitsInStock, UnitsInStock) = UnitsInStock)
GO
|
|
|
|
|
A quick bit of examining the execution plan reveals that for this procedure, when called with a product name but not the other fields, the query optimiser chooses to use a clustered index scan - basically just reading the table from start to end. This is typically the least efficient operation in SQL Server's armoury, although it may get used in preference to an index if the index isn't very selective (if a lot of results are found in the index, the cost of the bookmark lookups, which may well be out of order with respect to the table, may outweigh the cost of just reading the table).
When performing a SELECT with only ProductName in the WHERE clause, it performs an index seek on the ProductName index then a bookmark lookup to return the whole row.
I rewrote your query to a pattern I've used before:
CREATE PROCEDURE SearchProducts2 (
@ProductName NVARCHAR(40) = null,
@UnitPrice MONEY = null,
@UnitsInStock SMALLINT = null
)
AS
SELECT *
FROM Products
WHERE
(ProductName = @ProductName OR @ProductName IS NULL) AND
(UnitPrice = @UnitPrice OR @UnitPrice IS NULL) AND
(UnitsInStock = @UnitsInStock OR @UnitsInStock IS NULL)
GO This had the same effect as yours did, which did surprise me a little.
SQL Server will compile a query plan the first time using the arguments supplied at that time, and will normally cache the plan and reuse it next time. If the arguments that are used will be wildly divergent - lots of values identical in the table but with a few exceptions - you might find that the cached plan isn't good for some values but is for others. Using the WITH RECOMPILE option when creating the procedure forces SQL Server not to cache the plan. Alternatively you can specify WITH RECOMPILE with the EXEC statement to force a recompile at that time.
So I think dynamic SQL is preferable. You can still use parameters with a query string - and you should, to simplify your code (no need to escape special characters) and to avoid the possibility of SQL injection. You simply use a variable name (e.g. @ProductName) in the query text and add a parameter to the command object, the same as you would if you were calling a stored procedure.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

I have a treeview control. I was able to generate the tree nodes for this treeview control by reading the structure of the tree from a database table. At each treenode, I show a check box (CheckBoxes is true). On the Sql Server Side, I have a table which has the following structure:
TreeStruct (NodeID int, NodeDesc varchar(50), NodeState tinyint)
This table is pre populated with information in the order in which the tree will be constructed.
I want to be able to do the following:
(a) whenever the CheckState property changes (i.e., a user Checks/Unchecks a node, I want to commit the change to the database
(b) Let the user make as many changes as possible to the Checkboxes, which will change the CheckState property of the nodes. When the user is done, he/she can press the save button, and all these changes will be written to the database.
I am not sure how to bind the data I read from the database to the TreeNode(s) so that I can make the above two things happen.
Help appreciated.

Has anyone had any problems installing the latest download install for SQLExpress?
I've tried several times installing it on my machine; it churns along perfectly fine until towards the end of the install while 'verifying user accounts' then it tells me I don't have admin rights. But I do!!. Full admin rights.
This is the message that it splits at me:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 CTP Setup
----------------------------------------
Please use an admin account when installing on XP SP1 Systems.
Setup cannot proceed with non-admin accounts on XP SP1 systems.
Refer to the product documentation for more information.
Any ideas ?

XP SP2 has not been issued as part of the company standard build as yet.
I guess I could go against their back and install it on my machine anyway.

hi at all,
i've create in the past some application with c# that used access database.
Anyway I can see in the web that much people works with mysql sintax and mysql connections inside their applications.
So i've thought to use this technology, but i think it is different than access database.
Does the user need mysql demon installed on his pc to use my application mysql-based?

Hi All,
I'm developing a knowledgebase system where in user can create his own knowledgebase by adding articles to different categories.The categories are in tree like structure where in each category node can contain articles and sub categories. I need to provide the user with the option of subscribing for these categories and whenever any changes are made to articles or any of the categories under it, the user should be notified via email. Can someone tell me how I can design the database to store these information and how can i determine the email address to be notified whenever any changes are made under the category for which user has subscribed.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Raghu

UserTable with UserID and Email address
CategoryTable with CategoryID and UserID
When a change to a category occures, you would search the CategoryTable for the CategoryIDs you want, get the associated UserIDs, then search the UserTable with the UserID to get the email addresses.

Does anyone have a script that will extract all of the CREATE INDEX statements for a particular database.
I have already created one for triggers, procedures & functions but having difficulties in creating a script for the indices.
Thanks in advance.

We have a stored procedure written in T-SQL that scans several tables and views, then returns the resulting data.
Executing this stored procedure for the first time on a database with lots of data in it (say, 50000 unique rows at least) will take a LONG time to execute; something like 60 seconds or more. Successive calls to the stored procedure take only 2-3 seconds.
We believe this is due to SQL generating an execution path for the stored procedure. Unfortunately, SQL seems to be throwing away the execution path for this stored procedure: after a few hours (or maybe a day) of executing at speeds of 2-3 seconds, it'll suddenly take 60 seconds or more for no apparent reason again.
I'm curious, does this sound like SQL execution path caching problem? Or is there something else lurking in the DB causing this issue?

It is probably the effect of loading the data from the tables into memory and unloading other tables. Once the data is local after the first query is complete running the query again is fast, then as other queries load data from other tables into the cache, this data slowly gets unloaded and the query takes a long time since it has to hit the disk to reload the data.
There could also be a locking issue if the database is under load and other clients are accessing the same table. If it were the execution plan then it would probably run slow until the table statisitics were updated.

The query should be precompiled once it is a stored procedure. I have heard of systems where the stored procedures were very very large and there were lots of them causing problems, however, in most systems it is more likely to be due to data caching issues. When the data is retrieved for the first time it is read into memory, if the SQL Server operates on the same data again then it will most likely be in the cache already and it doesn't have to go out to disk to retrieve it.
To check what is going on you can use
SET STATISTICS IO ON It will show you various information about the I/O activity your query required. e.g.
Table 'Orders'. Scan count 1, logical reads 22, physical reads 0, read-ahead reads 0.
Table 'Employees'. Scan count 1, logical reads 2, physical reads 0, read-ahead reads 0.
. This shows that the Tables that were used the number of logical reads (from the data cache), and the number of physical (from disk) reads.
