Re: displaying data from 1 form to another - C# Discussion Boards

How can I run following command through c#?

RunDll32 C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\INSTAL~1\PROFES~1\RunTime\10\00\Intel32\Ctor.dll,LaunchSetup "C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{F0A37341-D692-11D4-A984-009027EC0A9C}\SETUP.exe" -l0x9  -removeonly

Chaos, panic and disorder - my work here is done.

Process.Start(@"RunDll32 C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\INSTAL~1\PROFES~1\RunTime\10\00\Intel32\Ctor.dll,LaunchSetup \"C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{F0A37341-D692-11D4-A984-009027EC0A9C}\SETUP.exe\" -l0x9  -removeonly");

Well this is not nice to say around here. Tell us what you tried, and what it's not working and then you'll get some help.

Your problem might be the databinding...see where it's done...Maybe we could help you better if you would post some of your code.

Sorry for being vague.This is the code in form 2

 <br />
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
            string strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=datatry.mdb";<br />
            string Company = txtSearch.Text;<br />
            string select = "SELECT * FROM ecmain WHERE CompanyName Like  '" + Company + "'";<br />
            OleDbConnection datatryConn = new OleDbConnection(strConnection);<br />
            datatryConn.Open();<br />
<br />
            OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(select, datatryConn);<br />
            DataSet ds = new DataSet();<br />
<br />
            da.Fill(ds, "ecmain");<br />
<br />
            update frm = new update(txtSearch.Text );<br />
            frm.Show();<br />
           <br />
            datatryConn.Close(); <br />

code in form 2

<br />
 private void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
<br />
            string strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=datatry.mdb";<br />
<br />
            string select = "Update ecmain SET CompanyName ='" + txtCompany.Text + "' , ContactName ='" + txtName.Text + "',ContactSurname='" + txtSurname.Text + "', Designation='" + txtDesignation.Text + "',TelephoneNumber='" + txtTel.Text + "', Faxnumber= '" + txtFax.Text + "', Email='" + txtEmail.Text + "',City/Town='" + txtCity.Text + "',PostCode='" + txtPost.Text + "',NumberofEmployees='" + txtEmployees.Text + "', Export='" + cbxExport.SelectedItem + "',ExportDestinations='" + txtDestination.Text + "', SIC Product 1='" + txtSic1.Text + "', Product1_Description='" + txtProduct1.Text + "', SICProduct2='" + txtSic2.Text + "', Product2Description='" + txtProduct2.Text + "', SICProduct3='" + txtSic3.Text + "', Product3Description='" + txtProduct3.Text + "', GeneralComments='" + txtComment.Text + "', Complete='" + cbxComplete.SelectedItem + "' Where CompanyName='" + txtSearch.Text + "'";<br />

Easy guys im new to programming

where is button1 and btnUpdate? You wrote that the whole code is placed in the second form...you got me confused.

I will use Google before asking dumb questions

Ok its like this.Form1 has txtsearch and button1 for search.When u type the company name in the textbox and click the button it shows the update form.
This code is in form1
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=datatry.mdb";
string Company = txtSearch.Text;
string select = "SELECT * FROM ecmain WHERE CompanyName Like '" + Company + "'";
OleDbConnection datatryConn = new OleDbConnection(strConnection);
datatryConn.Open();

OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(select, datatryConn);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();

da.Fill(ds, "ecmain");

update frm = new update(txtSearch.Text );
frm.Show();

datatryConn.Close();

Form2 is named update, it has a datagridview and textboxes, now what i need is when I click button1 in form1 the search results to appear in the datagridview in form2

This is the update code in form 2

private void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

string strConnection = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=datatry.mdb";

string select = "Update ecmain SET CompanyName ='" + txtCompany.Text + "' , ContactName ='" + txtName.Text + "',ContactSurname='" + txtSurname.Text + "', Designation='" + txtDesignation.Text + "',TelephoneNumber='" + txtTel.Text + "', Faxnumber= '" + txtFax.Text + "', Email='" + txtEmail.Text + "',City/Town='" + txtCity.Text + "',PostCode='" + txtPost.Text + "',NumberofEmployees='" + txtEmployees.Text + "', Export='" + cbxExport.SelectedItem + "',ExportDestinations='" + txtDestination.Text + "', SIC Product 1='" + txtSic1.Text + "', Product1_Description='" + txtProduct1.Text + "', SICProduct2='" + txtSic2.Text + "', Product2Description='" + txtProduct2.Text + "', SICProduct3='" + txtSic3.Text + "', Product3Description='" + txtProduct3.Text + "', GeneralComments='" + txtComment.Text + "', Complete='" + cbxComplete.SelectedItem + "' Where CompanyName='" + txtSearch.Text + "'";
OleDbConnection datatryConn = new OleDbConnection(strConnection);
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(select, datatryConn);

datatryConn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
datatryConn.Close();
MessageBox.Show("Updated successfully!");
}

You can create a public method in the second form, let's say BindData(). After you call the second's form constructor in button1_Click event, you call that method before showing the second form. Like this:

update frm = new update(txtSearch.Text );
frm.BindData();
frm.Show();

Make sure that the BindData method is the one that binds the gridview and the textboxes to the database according with the text the form received in it's constructor.

Hope it helps.

Please don't have direct queries like this. It's just bad practice. Instead, take a look at using Command Parameters - they are your friend, and they remove a lot of vulnerabilities from your application (take a look at this[^] article). Also take a look at this[^] article on passing values between forms.

If your forms are modeless, then in form2, add a string property, in form1, after the user has changed text in the text box, change that property on form2.

if your form2 is modal, then add the string from the text box as a parameter to the constructor of form2.

Ill owe u big time. Pliz help

I have just helped - what I described are fairly fundamental features of the C# language, so you if you don't understand that, I'd suggest you find yourself a good book on the subject

hi,

i have got a class like this in my windows form project.I wanna change ranges horizantalaligment to left?

CalismaSayfasi.Cells[SatirIndex, ci + 1] = Satir.Cells[ci].Value.ToString();
}
SatirIndex++;
}

// Excel gösteriliyor

Hi,

how to make the generic type has specific constructor?

what should I add on the class definition if I don't want to add get/set function to set that value for some reason?

e.g.
public class ClassA<T>
{
public T Create()
{
List list = outside.list();
T t = new T(list);
}
}

// how to let T is only has a T(List list)? I have thing about Interface and Abstract class but those cannot work. And if I tried to use another class to input the value, it's too specific. any solution?

Thanks.

Hi all,

How can I achieve the same pop out like window, that Visual Studio 2005 uses.
Can anyone please provide me some information whether this is possible or not.

Many Thanks

Please don't say this. It's rude. Besides, it can't be that urgent otherwise you would be paying someone for assistance, right?

There's nothing built into the .NET framework for creating PDF files. You will have to use a third-party component. Search the web for more information.

Hi,

I've got a query which looks similar to this: "...FROM xy WHERE ID=@Id AND NAME IN (@Names)". I want to pass multiple parameters for @Names, so that it would be like:
"...AND NAME IN ('Susi', 'Peter', 'Steven')"

Is this anyhow possible with the use of parameters? Is could form a qry like that in the code with building up the string, but I would prefer the way with parameters.

The problem is that when I setup @Names to be AnsiString or String (Varchar) then it builds something like this: N'Susi, Peter, Steven'. That's one long String so it searches in the DB like the following: "... NAME IN('Susi, Peter, Steven') - which of course, doesn't exist.

Any ideas? Impossible? $Shucks | :-\$

Thx, Shi

Don't know exactly, try this

FROM xy WHERE ID=@Id AND NAME IN (@Name1,@Name2,@Name3)

add parameters for all these.
