Hi
I'm using a for statement to loop through some rows in a datatable:

for (int x = 0; x < dtcountact.Rows.Count; x++)
{
}
how can I set the default value for a dropdownlist i.e.
dropdownlist.SelectedValue = dtcount.Rows[x]["dddropdown"].ToString().Trim();
all this seems to do is to set each dropdown as the last number in the datatable.
How would i set each row in the datatable to the dropdownlist?
thanks
please ask if you want me to eloborate.

if this is part of the question below.

for (int x = 0; x < dtcountact.Rows.Count; x++)
{
   dropdownlist.SelectedValue = (x + 1).ToString();
}

but if ive got that in the onrowcreate event it does the same thing.
Sorry to sort of repost but I was trying a different method
instead of counting rows i was counting rows in the database and going from there.
But I cant seem to set the default value anymore.
Before I just used the datakeys.

Well the post was getting a bit long.
Do you mean that if you put that in the OnRowCreate event it doesn't work?
Then try and put it in the OnRowDataBound event.
I don't see why its not working. Is it just not selecting the right values?

Its just selecting the last row in the datatable as its default where as it should start from the top and for each row pick a default value for it.
Ive got to go, i will be in tomorrow, thanks for the help
here is the code:

SqlCommand sqlcommandcountact = new SqlCommand("Select * from table where field1 = '" + session + "' and field2 = '" + session2 + "'", con);
SqlDataAdapter dataAdaptercountact = new SqlDataAdapter();
dataAdaptercountact.SelectCommand = sqlcommandcountact;
DataSet dataSetcountact = new DataSet();
dataAdaptercountact.Fill(dataSetcountact);
DataTable dtcountact = dataSetcountact.Tables["table"];

dropdownlist = ((DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddorder"));
for (int countallrows = 1; countallrows <= dtcountact.Rows.Count; countallrows++)
{
dropdownlist.Items.Add(new ListItem(countallrows.ToString(), countallrows.ToString()));
}

for (int x = 0; x < dtcountact.Rows.Count; x++)
{
dropdownlist = ((DropDownList)e.Row.FindControl("ddorder"));
dropdownlist.SelectedValue = dtcountact.Rows[x].ToString();
}

Try changing this row

dropdownlist.SelectedValue = x.ToString();

That should sort out the problem.

Google Spreadsheet like control for editing cells?

Having found this quesiton [^], I'm still on the search for a control that behaves more like the spreadsheet of Google Docs [^]:

Selecting, editing, merging of cells, across rows and columns.
Formatting like bold, italic, maybe color of individual cells.
Storing and loading as HTML or similar formats on the server.
All that packing inside a nice and easy-to-use ASP.NET control.

Is anyone aware of such a tool (commercial or non-commerical)?

Thanks
Uwe

Hi,
Have just developed some codes to allow users to send mails to a specified email address.
The solutions work no doubt, but the mails are going to the spam mail and not into the Inbox.

What might be responsible with this.... Please help out

Does the content of the e-mails you send out contain something about winning $1,000,000 and bank details? D'Oh! | :doh:

try to omit Embedded Images into your mails...
Make it simple and in text format... I dont think that will spam...

Spam filtering depends on the policy settings of the mail server. So please check the server settings also....

Does any one know what assembly the CSS UITypeEditor is? I have been searching and searching and the only thing I can find is a reference to Microsoft.Web.UI.Design or some such, but no way to download it.

I've already looked into everything like that. What I'm looking for is the one that is already in use from visual studio. When you place a htlm control on the page you can click the style property in the property grid and get the option of a UI element that builds the style for you. I am looking for that CSS Modify Styel Editor. It has and still is being elusive.

Never mind as far as I have been able to determine, MS feels that we are not smart enough to have the Venus Style Builder as a UI Editor Type. The recommended approach is with the StyleCollection blah blah blah bull....

Hello!

I use Response.Redirect(url,true) for return to the same page in edit mode, after creation of object. But for some reason it doesn't work correctly Sigh | :sigh:

After Response.Redirect(url,true) fulfills in PageLoad in debug mode it doesn't get in (!IsPostBack) section : (( ..

Thank you.
