I am using following data to add new data to my table
Me.TblResultTableAdapter.Fill(Me.DbResultDataSet.tblResult)
Dim drNewRowEditSummary As DataRow
drNewRowEditSummary = DbResultDataSet.tblResult.NewRow
drNewRowEditSummary.Item(1) = "Test"
DbResultDataSet.tblResult.Rows.Add(drNewRowEditSummary)
TblResultTableAdapter.Update(DbResultDataSet.tblResult)
How can I edit my data using similar method as above?
Thanks

DataRowCollection has a Find-Method that returns the DataRow with the given primary key(s). So you should define a pk column, then you get the row with:
Dim drResult As DataRow = DbResultDataSet.tblResult.Rows.Find(1) 'if your pk is 1'
drResult.Item(1) = "Test2"
TblResultTableAdapter.Update(DbResultDataSet.tblResult)
Btw, the same way if you want to delete this row: drResult.Delete()

I would like to add a new column in my project, but a weird thing happened...
My code
adapter.fill(datatable)
dgv.datasource = datatable
dgv.columns.add("test","testHeader")
The column index of test column should be the last index.
However, I found the column index is 0 and the original 0th index turns to 1
I am not sure what happened. Is there any factor could cause this problem?
property settings of datagridview is wrong?
Try This Code For Adding the Column
Dim col As New DataGridViewTextBoxColumn
col.DataPropertyName = "PropertyName"
col.HeaderText = "SomeText"
col.Name = "colWhateverName"
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(col)
It's simple , get the total column count first and then add the column at the end :
Dim col as New DataGridViewColumn
col.HeaderText = "abc"
dgv.Columns.Insert(dgv.ColumnCount, col)
If the above code doesn't help , try adding column to the IDataTable itself :
datatable.Columns.Add("Header text", GetType(System.String)).SetOrdinal(datatable.Columns.Count)
Your code
adapter.fill(datatable)
dgv.datasource = datatable
dgv.columns.add("test","testHeader")
seems to be working properly.
I guess you are re-filling the datagridview that's why the added column is in index 0.
try to add
dgv.DataSource = Nothing
you will notice that the added column "test","testHeader" will be in index 0.
setting again
dgv.datasource = datatable
will cause the added column to remain at index 0 while the datatable will be added to the succeeding columns.
There's a DataGridViewColumn.DisplayedIndex property to control order of visible columns.
Keep in mind that DataGridView tracks theese values and update them for other columns in your grid. Chaning some of them to 0 will update all other columns to highter values.
This works because we clone an existing column while you cannot append a column that does already exist in a table. this also has the benefit of cloning all the column settings applied to the existing columns.
Clone a existing column:
Dim Newtestcolumn As DataGridViewColumn = Existingcolumn.Clone
Adjust header text:
Newtestcolumn.HeaderText = "test"
Add column to datagridview:
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(test)
If you add columns that does not match the current drawing format you need to update the datagridview object by calling:
DataGridView1.Update()
If you want to write to a specific column or you dont know the column name
you use this to return the amount of columns and then point to column 0 for cloning fx.
Dim Index = DataGridView1.Columns.GetColumnCount(DataGridViewElementStates.None)
You specify the column index like this:
DataGridView1.Columns.Item(index)
going back to the first line we would then write
Dim Newtestcolumn As DataGridViewColumn = DataGridView1.Columns.Item(index).clone
I have an existing datatable with two columns predefined.
Example:
Column 1 = Name
Column 2 = Surname
No rows are currently in my data table.
Datatable.Rows.Add - Will add a row to my collection
Now I want to write to the current row added and column 1 (Name) with text "Bob" then write to current row and column 2 (Surname) with text "smith"
I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
You can add a DataRow with the specified information :
Dim dtTable As New DataTable
'create a new data row.
Dim drNewRow As DataRow = dtTable.NewRow
'specify the information of the new row.
drNewRow("Name") = "Bob"
drNewRow("Surname") = "Smith"
'add the new row with specified information to the table.
dtTable.Rows.Add(drNewRow)
I have a SQL database with a table "Employees" in it (with large number of rows). By using DataGridView, I want to search for specific "Employee's Name" and change it's "Job". How can I achieve that. I'm using VB.net. Please Help Me.
Not sure if this will help but write a loop that goes through all the values if it finds a match its true if not it is false ,if found the item can be displayed in a textbox and edited
if not a message is displayed saying "no match found"
the editing part can be done using a procedure that will update the value in your grid with what is entered
i can supply code for this if need be but i am unsure if this is what you wish
and there is most likely a better way of doing it
you can loop through your grid, and check if the data you wish to edit exists using the For loop:
Supposing you are using a textbox as the input, and you use a label to hold the employee ID:
Dim EmpIDColumn as Integer = 'array number of your EmpID Column
Dim EmpNameColumn as Integer = 'The array number of the column where your EmpName is
Dim JobColumn as Integer = 'The array number of your job column
For each dr as Datagridviewrow in Datagridview1.Rows
If dr.cells(EmpNameColumn).value = TxtSearchBox.text Then
txtEmpJob.text = dr.cells(JobColumn).value
lblEmpID.Text = dr.cells(EmpIDColumn).value
End if
Next
Okay, so you've searched the record successfully. Next step (after editing the job, and even other details like the name) would be to update the record in the grid. Remember you set the lblEmpID's text to empID in the column? Use it to find the
Record you wish to change in the grid using the same technique above!
Dim EmpIDColumn as Integer = 'array number of your EmpID Column
Dim EmpNameColumn as Integer = 'The array number of the column where your EmpName is
Dim JobColumn as Integer = 'The array number of your job column
For each dr as Datagridviewrow in Datagridview1.Rows
If dr.cells(EmpIDColumn).value = lblEmpID.text Then
dr.cells(JobColumn).value = txtEmpJob.text
dr.cells(EmpNameColumn).value = txtEmpName.text
'then, type in here your SQL Query Update!
End if
Next
I have a datatable that contains the rows of a database table. This table has a primary key formed by 2 columns.
The components are assigned this way: datatable -> bindingsource -> datagridview. What I want is to search a specific row (based on the primary key) to select it on the grid. I cant use the bindingsource.Find method because you only can use one column.
I have access to the datatable, so I do manually search on the datatable, but how can I get bindingsource row position based on the datatable row? Or there is another way to solve this?
Im using Visual Studio 2005, VB.NET.
I am attempting to add an answer for this 2-year old question. One way to solve this is by appending this code after the UpdateAll method(of SaveItem_Click):
Me.YourDataSet.Tables("YourTable").Rows(YourBindingSource.Position).Item("YourColumn") = "YourNewValue"
Then call another UpdateAll method.
Well, I end up iterating using bindingsource.List and bindingsource.Item. I didnt know but these properties contains the data of the datatable applying the filter and sorting.
Dim value1 As String = "Juan"
Dim value2 As String = "Perez"
For i As Integer = 0 To bsData.Count - 1
Dim row As DataRowView = bsData.Item(i)
If row("Column1") = value1 AndAlso row("Column2") = value2 Then
bsData.Position = i
Return
End If
Next
I have the following code:
Dim i As Integer = dtResult.Rows.Count
For i = 0 To dtResult.Rows.Count Step 1
strVerse = blHelper.Highlight(dtResult.Rows(i).ToString, s)
' syntax error here
dtResult.Rows(i) = strVerse
Next
I want to add a strVerse to the current row.
What am I doing wrong?
The problem you're running into is that you're trying to replace an entire row object. That is not allowed by the DataTable API. Instead you have to update the values in the columns of a row object. Or add a new row to the collection.
To update the column of a particular row you can access it by name or index. For instance you could write the following code to update the column "Foo" to be the value strVerse
dtResult.Rows(i)("Foo") = strVerse
You can access columns by index, by name and some other ways:
dtResult.Rows(i)("columnName") = strVerse
You should probably make sure your DataTable has some columns first...
Dim myRow() As Data.DataRow
myRow = dt.Select("MyColumnName = 'SomeColumnTitle'")
myRow(0)("SomeOtherColumnTitle") = strValue
Code above instantiates a DataRow. Where "dt" is a DataTable, you get a row by selecting any column (I know, sounds backwards). Then you can then set the value of whatever row you want (I chose the first row, or "myRow(0)"), for whatever column you want.
