Hi,

In my application's event I have a SelectCommand that works if I have a
concatenated select statement but does not work when I use parameters.

I have a SqlDataSource2 and AccessDataSource2 as follows:
<asp:AccessDataSource ID="AccessDataSource2" runat="server"
DataFile="C:\Program Files\CallMaster\Data\Callmaster.mdb"

SelectCommand="SELECT [TimeOfDayNumber], [TimeOfDayDescription] FROM
[AttTimeOfDayXref]">
</asp:AccessDataSource>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$
ConnectionStrings:CallMasterSQLConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT TimeOfDayNumber, TimeOfDayDescription FROM
AttTimeOfDayXref">
</asp:SqlDataSource>


My click_event is as follows:

protected void ButtonImport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
PanelUpload.Visible=false;
PanelView.Visible=false;
PanelImport.Visible=true;

// reset to blank
LabelImport1.Text="";
LabelImport2.Text = "";

// retrieve the Select Command for the worksheet data
OleDbCommand objCommand = new OleDbCommand();
objCommand=ExcelConnection();

// create a DataReader
OleDbDataReader reader;
reader = objCommand.ExecuteReader();

string txtAttID="";
string txtTODDesc = "";
string txtExtToDial = "";
string txtDirList = "";

//check web.config if system app setting set for sql or access
//MyDataSource will always be either SqlDataSource1 or
AccessDataSource1
string id = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyDataSource"];
Control datasourcecontrol = this.FindControl(id);

//for testing only
id = "SqlDataSource1";
//id = "AccessDataSource1";

//define a dataview
DataView dv = new DataView();

int intcount = 0;

while (reader.Read())
{
intcount = intcount + 1;
txtAttID = GetValueFromReader(reader, "AttID");
txtTODDesc = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Time Of Day Desc");
txtExtToDial = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Num To Dial");
txtDirList = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Directory Listing");
LabelImport1.Text = LabelImport1.Text + txtAttID + "," +
txtTODDesc + "," + txtExtToDial + "," + txtDirList;

if (id.Equals("SqlDataSource1"))
{
//find time od day number from the AttTimeOfDayXref
//The following concatenated select works
//SqlDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = '" + txtTODDesc + "'");

//The following parameterized select does not work
SqlDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayDescription = @TODDescription");
SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters.Add("TODDescriptio n",
TypeCode.String, txtTODDesc);

dv =
(DataView)SqlDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelectAr guments.Empty);
int selectrec = 0;
int intTOD = (int)dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"];
//LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text +
dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"].ToString();
LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text + intTOD.ToString();
}
else if (id.Equals("AccessDataSource1"))
{
//find time od day number from the AttTimeOfDayXref
//This works
//AccessDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = '" + txtTODDesc + "'");

//The following does not work
AccessDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = [?]");

AccessDataSource2.SelectParameters.Add("TimeOfDayD escription", txtTODDesc);


dv =
(DataView)AccessDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelec tArguments.Empty);
int selectrec = 0;
int intTOD = (int)
dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"];
//LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text +
dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"].ToString();
LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text + intTOD.ToString();
}
}
reader.Close();
}


I have tried various ways to make the Parameters.Add work but cannot. Help!

Hi,
I am also having a similar problem with the insertcommand

SqlDataSource2.InsertCommand = "Insert INTO Attendant
(AttendantID, TimeOfDay, TypeOfTransfer, ExtensionToDial) VALUES (@txtAttID,
@intTOD, @intTypeOfTransfer, @ExtToDial)";
SqlDataSource2.InsertParameters.Add("txtAttID",
TypeCode.String, txtAttID);
SqlDataSource2.InsertParameters.Add("intTOD",
TypeCode.Int32, txtTOD);
SqlDataSource2.InsertParameters.Add("intTypeOfTran sfer",
TypeCode.Int32, "2");
SqlDataSource2.InsertParameters.Add("ExtToDial",
TypeCode.String, txtExtToDial);
SqlDataSource2.Insert(DataSourceSelectArguments.Em pty);

Hi Morris,

Let's solve the select problem first.

Quote from Morris============================================ ======
//The following parameterized select does not work
SqlDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayDescription = @TODDescription");
SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters.Add("TODDescriptio n",
TypeCode.String, txtTODDesc);

dv =
(DataView)SqlDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelectAr guments.Empty);
==================================================

The above code seems fine. Could you set a breakpoint after the above lines
to check the dv.Count? What's the result?

Quote from Morris ==================================================
//The following does not work
AccessDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = [?]");
==================================================

Please try to use "SELECT AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From
AttTimeOfDayXref Where

TimeOfDayDescription =?" instead. Can it work?

If it still doesn't work could you send me a repro project? My email is
v- update here after sending the project in case
I missed that email.

Hi,

I was able to solve both the select and the insert with parameters issue by
using a parameter.clear after each event.

I do have a few questions:

1) why do I require a .clear?
2) is there a better way to do the select and insert with parameters in an
iterative process than using .add then .clear? Is there a way to just
refresh the parameters values?
3) is using table adapters more efficient than using datasource controls?
4) is there a way to get the count of the records inserted, similar to the
dataview.count? I tried using count = datasource1.Inserted(RecAddedCount)
but get error.
5) Is there a way (other than retrieving the record) of seeing the values of
the fields in the record inserted similar to the dataview fields in a
label.text?
6) on page load, how do I see the page number that was requested by the user
in a multipage gridview? I tried gridview1.pageindex but get random values,
not the number of the page requested.

My code is as follows:

protected void ButtonImport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
PanelUpload.Visible=false;
PanelView.Visible=false;
PanelImport.Visible=true;

// reset to blank
LabelImport1.Text="";
LabelImport2.Text = "";

// retrieve the Select Command for the worksheet data
OleDbCommand objCommand = new OleDbCommand();
objCommand=ExcelConnection();

// create a DataReader
OleDbDataReader reader;
reader = objCommand.ExecuteReader();

string txtAttID="";
string txtTODDesc = "";
string txtExtToDial = "";
string txtDirList = "";

//check web.config if system app setting set for sql or access
//MyDataSource will always be either SqlDataSource1 or
AccessDataSource1
string id = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyDataSource"];
Control datasourcecontrol = this.FindControl(id);

//for testing only
//id = "SqlDataSource1";
id = "AccessDataSource1";

//define a dataview
DataView dv = new DataView();
DataView dv2 = new DataView();

int intcount = 0;

while (reader.Read())
{
intcount = intcount + 1;
txtAttID = GetValueFromReader(reader, "AttID");
txtTODDesc = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Time Of Day Desc");
txtExtToDial = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Num To Dial");
txtDirList = GetValueFromReader(reader, "Directory Listing");
LabelImport1.Text = LabelImport1.Text + txtAttID + "," +
txtTODDesc + "," + txtExtToDial + "," + txtDirList;
string txtTOD = "0";
int selreccount = 0;
int selectrec = 0;

if (id.Equals("SqlDataSource1"))
{
//find time of day number from the AttTimeOfDayXref
//SqlDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = '" + txtTODDesc + "'");
SqlDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayDescription = @TODDescription");
SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters.Add("TODDescriptio n",
TypeCode.String, txtTODDesc);

dv =
(DataView)SqlDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelectAr guments.Empty);
SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters.Clear();
txtTOD =
(string)dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"].ToString();

//Try and add record to Attendant table
SqlDataSource1.InsertCommand = "Insert INTO Attendant
(AttendantID, TimeOfDay, TypeOfTransfer, ExtensionToDial) VALUES (@txtAttID,
@intTOD, @intTypeOfTransfer, @ExtToDial); SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()";

SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("txtAttID",
TypeCode.String, txtAttID);
SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("intTOD",
TypeCode.Int32, txtTOD);
SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("intTypeOfTran sfer",
TypeCode.Int32, "2");
SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("ExtToDial",
TypeCode.String, txtExtToDial);

SqlDataSource1.Insert();
SqlDataSource1.InsertParameters.Clear();

}
else if (id.Equals("AccessDataSource1"))
{
//find time od day number from the AttTimeOfDayXref
//AccessDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = '" + txtTODDesc + "'");
AccessDataSource2.SelectCommand = ("SELECT
AttTimeOfDayXref.TimeOfDayNumber From AttTimeOfDayXref Where
TimeOfDayDescription = ?");

AccessDataSource2.SelectParameters.Add("TimeOfDayD escription", txtTODDesc);

dv =
(DataView)AccessDataSource2.Select(DataSourceSelec tArguments.Empty);
AccessDataSource2.SelectParameters.Clear();
txtTOD =
(string)dv.Table.Rows[selectrec]["TimeOfDayNumber"].ToString();

//Try and add record to Attendant table
AccessDataSource1.InsertParameters.Clear();
AccessDataSource1.InsertCommand = "Insert INTO Attendant
(AttendantID, TimeOfDay, TypeOfTransfer, ExtensionToDial) VALUES (?, ?, ?,
?)";

AccessDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("txtAttID",
TypeCode.String, txtAttID);
AccessDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("intTOD",
TypeCode.Int32, txtTOD);
AccessDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("intTypeOfT ransfer",
TypeCode.Int32, "2");
AccessDataSource1.InsertParameters.Add("ExtToDial" ,
TypeCode.String, txtExtToDial);
AccessDataSource1.Insert();
}
selreccount = dv.Count;
LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text + txtTOD;
LabelImport1.Text = LabelImport1.Text + ", reccount=" +
selreccount.ToString() + "; <br>";
}
reader.Close();
LabelImport2.Text = LabelImport2.Text + "--- " + intcount;

GridView1.DataBind();
GridView1.Visible = true;

}

Sorry for all the question. I try to do the research but do not always get
the answers on my own.

Hi Morris,

Thanks for your update.

1) why do I require a .clear?


I think it's because that you've already added some parameters before that.
But from your code I cannot see it. If you could provide all the code I may
help to find out the root cause.


2) is there a better way to do the select and insert with parameters in an

iterative process than using .add then .clear? Is there a way to just
refresh the parameters values?


To refresh the parameter you can try this in the code behind:
SqlDataSource2.SelectParameters["parameter_name"].DefaultValue

However, generally we probably will not hard code it in the code behind. We
may use the ControlParameter, etc., which is defined in the inline code
(aspx). You can refer to the following tutorial to learn how to use it:

Sample:

http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStar...ridViewDropDow
nList_vb.aspx

Code:

http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStar...h=~/aspnet/sam
ples/data/GridViewDropDownList.src&file=GridViewDropDownList _cs.aspx&lang=C%
23+Source


3) is using table adapters more efficient than using datasource controls?

I believe there's no significant performance gap here. It's recommended to
use the DataSource controls because they are more convenient. The
DataSource controls have built-in cache support and we can utilize the set
of Parameters such as the ControlParameter, QueryStringParameter, etc. They
are all very useful to us.

4) is there a way to get the count of the records inserted, similar to the
dataview.count? I tried using count = datasource1.Inserted(RecAddedCount)
but get error.

We can get the affected rows number in the Inserted event handler of the
SqlDataSource control. Here's the code:
protected void SqlDataSource1_Inserted(object sender,
SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs e)
{
//e.AffectedRows

}
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server"
oninserted="SqlDataSource1_Inserted" ¡*

5) Is there a way (other than retrieving the record) of seeing the values
of
the fields in the record inserted similar to the dataview fields in a
label.text?

Another way is to get the information in Inserted event handler of the
SqlDataSource control. Like this:
protected void SqlDataSource1_Inserted(object sender,
SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs e)
{
// label.text =e.Command.Parameters["@parameter_name"].Value. ToString();

}

6) on page load, how do I see the page number that was requested by the
user
in a multipage gridview? I tried gridview1.pageindex but get random
values,
not the number of the page requested.

Page_Load event is a too early event to do this task. You can try
Page_PreRender instead:
protected void Page_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//To test only
Response.Write(GridView1.PageIndex +1);

}


Please feel free to ask if you have further questions.
