It is in in the actual code behind? How else could it be in the .CS file? I am confused... Been working way to long to answer questions LOL... Going on 100+ hours...

I got it to work...

OK, your code is in fact in the code behind.

Yes, this will work, but it's not how to produce well written software. Your presentation code should call methods on a dll which contain your buisiness logic and database functionality. This if fine if you're writing something for fun, but if someone is paying for it, or it's going to be put to serious use, this is not how to go about it.

I am not a school'd programmer. Infact, this is the first Dot Net website, I have ever done. I am a VB programmer, my jon was eliminated and my company offered me this position. This is how all of the pages that were given to me function. Every piece of code we use in our code behind. I work for the GOVT, we arent allowed to USE SQL server yet!

OK, even in a client VB app, you should use an n-tiered approach.

So I gathered. That really, really sucks.

SQL Server has nothing to do with what I am saying

Ibuprofen wrote:

Then your job is probably safe for now, but if you want to be employable in the 'real world', I recommend doing a google on n-tiered architecture and learning how to write this stuff.

I am not schooled either, but if you're self taught, all the more reason to always be looking for things to learn.

I know, that SQL has nothing to do with it. Smile | :)

Actually, I wasnt a VB.net programmer, just a VBScript programer did alot of excel / access programering, as well as I wrote alot of instrumentation programs the govt uses to analyze network packets that they collect with there High Speed Lan Taps. I know how to write true VB apps.

Why would you want to compile a whole websites piece of code into a DLL file? I will google it like you said, I am always looking to learn, but this project wasnt mind from the begining, I got given it after someone was working on it for two years, there is lots of devlopment done to it, and there is no way I could go back and change it all is what I was getting at.

Because that's how it is done - the business logic and data access exist in different assemblies to the presentation layer. In theory, it means different parts can be replaced. This does not happen in the real world. However, it does help with organising the code, nonetheless. Certainly having all the DB code in one place is invaluable. And, using stored procs is even better.

Well, you may be able to improve new parts at least. Or, at a minimum, learn how to do it, so you can tell your bosses that you're not happy having to work with a monolithic structure, that it will cause maintenance issues in the future, but you have no choice.

Did you look what actually ends up in strSQL? You are likely to spot problem in final query (with user input) then from this code alone. BTW for us here it's impossible to say if your code is ok since we don't know structure of your database.

In addition to what CG said, there is another problem with your code.

I recon RecNum is Textbox or similar. Now, what happens when user write, for example "1 AND TRUE"? You will end up with all records updated instead of just one. It's serious security hole, known as SQL Injection.

RecNum is a label, not editable by the user.

add/update in detail view

28-Apr-07 6:34

I also have the benefit of having trained users, its for a data collection website, secured on a govt connection, only people from my company have access, and use it.

I used master/detail view to display records in database. The default add/update option in the detail view uses text box which I changed to template field so that I can use drop down list instead of text box. But the value that I have picked from the drop down list didn't get updated or inserted, is there anything I need to set to make it work.
The following is the code that I have used:

<br />
 <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Progress" SortExpression="Progress"><br />
     <EditItemTemplate><br />
         <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlProgress" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource3" DataTextField="Progress" DataValueField="ProgressID"><br />
         </asp:DropDownList><br />
         <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource3" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ConnectionStrings:ExecutiveStatusReportConnectionString %>"<br />
         SelectCommand="SELECT [ProgressID], [Progress] FROM [Progress]"></asp:SqlDataSource><br />
     </EditItemTemplate><br />
     <InsertItemTemplate><br />
         <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlProgress" runat="server" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource3"<br />
         DataTextField="Progress" DataValueField="ProgressID"><br />
         </asp:DropDownList><br />
         <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource3" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ConnectionStrings:ExecutiveStatusReportConnectionString %>"<br />
          SelectCommand="SELECT [ProgressID], [Progress] FROM [Progress]"></asp:SqlDataSource><br />
      </InsertItemTemplate><br />
      <ItemTemplate><br />
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Progress") %>'></asp:Label><br />
</ItemTemplate><br />
</asp:TemplateField><br />

Thanks for any suggestions.

Long Surveys / Questionnaires TIMEOUT ISSUES`

27-Apr-07 13:21

You have a keypress event if you do VB.NET in windows, but as you're doing ASP.NET, these events happen on the client, in javascript, not on the server, in VB. If you google, there are lots of examples of javascript scripts that you can run via the key pressed event on the client end to do what you're after.

I have some surveys/questionnaires, that are rather long, some as long as 105 questions. The user is timing out before he can finish filling it out completely.
