Hi
How can I merge between three columns and the same time make the result as link in gridview

the code for merg is
XML
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Name" >
                    <ItemTemplate>

                            <%# Eval("FIRST_NAME") +""+  Eval("FATHER_NAME") +"" + Eval("FAMILY_NAME")%>

                    </ItemTemplate>



                </asp:TemplateField>




the code for hyperlink is:
<asp:HyperLinkField DataNavigateUrlFields="Name" HeaderText="Name" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="sch.aspx?ID={0}"  DataTextField="Name" Target="_blank"> </asp:HyperLinkField>

In another word, there is no field called (Name ) in the database. because it is a new coulmn appear after merged (firstName,fatherName and familyName)

Thanks

Use an ASP.net HyperLink control in the TemplateField's ItemTemplate

XML
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Name" >
<ItemTemplate>
        <asp:HyperLink ID="hypSomeLink" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("FIRST_NAME") %>' />                 
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

But you put just First name, I want the whole name
Thanks

I know, I assumed you'd be able to work it out from the example..
at all 11-Apr-11 9:46am    
as I understand from you I put it as following:

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Name">

<itemtemplate>

<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%# Eval("Name", "sch.aspx?ID={0}") %>'

Target="_blank" Text='<%# Eval("FIRST_NAME") +""+ Eval("FATHER_NAME") +"" + Eval("FAMILY_NAME")%>'>







But it gave this error again:

DataBinding: 'System.Data.DataRowView' does not contain a property with the name 'Name'

What is the problem now?

It means exactly what your error message says: the DataBinder is looking for a column called "Name" where there isn't one

Sorry , the site hidden the closing tag
XML
Use Name Instead Of

select FIRST_NAME+FATHER_NAME+FAMILY_NAME as Name from table


<asp:HyperLink ID="hyp_Isfresher" NavigateUrl='<%#"Your Link %>'
                                                Text='<%#Eval("Name")%>' runat="server"></asp:HyperLink>


<ItemTemplate>
<%# Eval("Name")%>
 </ItemTemplate>

Did you mean that put the sql statment inside hyperlink tag?
Mahendra.p25 11-Apr-11 6:58am    
No, In Your SqlQuery when You are returning your values


select FIRST_NAME+FATHER_NAME+FAMILY_NAME as Name,Col2,Col3,Col4 from table
at all 11-Apr-11 7:03am    
Is there any soultion other than SqlQuery ,because I did not deal with it ?
thanks
Mahendra.p25 11-Apr-11 7:04am    
Just want to ask from where your are getting
FIRST_NAME , FATHER_NAME ,FAMILY_NAME
at all 11-Apr-11 7:11am    
Yes it is from SqlQuery , I know simple information about it not in advance
You use the datalist control:-
Now same as your
<ItemTemplate>
                            <%# Eval("FIRST_NAME") +""+  Eval("FATHER_NAME") +"" + Eval("FAMILY_NAME")%>
                    
e>
<a target="_balank" style="color:#0000FF;" href='<%# "sch.aspx?ID="+ DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"ID").Tostring() %>' shape="rect">View full size</a> 
</ItemTemplat>

i am use the anchor tag for hyperlink. now my tag is start form < a....
at all 11-Apr-11 7:16am    
Did you mean use tag a inesated of <hyperlinktag?>
Rakesh From Patna 11-Apr-11 7:17am    
You use the "< a" tag ...
this tag is use for hyperlink in html.
This is very much possible.Insert a gridview and take gridviewTasks..Then take Edit Colums in that. Disable autogenerate field in that and add some bondfields..Then click on edit template and add hyperlink

I do n't know what is the problem it gave me
System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataControlFieldCollection must have items of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataControlField'. 'asp:DataList' is of type 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.DataList'
