Problem with datacolumn expression

C

Chris Ericoli

Hi,

I am working with an 'in session' ado dataset with an asp.net application.
My dataset is comprised of two tables, one of which maintains a few
calculated datacolumns. For some reason these datacolumns do not trigger
their expression when other columns from which the expressions are derived
are updated. Below is a basic example of what I am doing.

User enters values into an asp.net form and clicks a button.
Retrieve dataset from session object.
Dimension a procedure level array (A) of datarows.
Dimension a single datarow (S) as equal to datatable.newrow for the relevant
datatable (T)
Iterate through the values from the webform and add them to the appropriate
datarow.items for the single datarow (S)

(at this stage I believe the expression based columns should trigger their
value - but they are not showing when watched)

Add this new row (S) to the array of datarows (A).

(Depending on values in webform this process might be repeated with further
additions to the array)

Array (A) is passed off to another procedure.
New procedure retrieves dataset from session object.
Array (A) is iterated through with additional datarow.item values being
added.
As iterated, each datarow is added to the relevant datatable as referenced
through the retrieved dataset.

(at this stage when watching the datarows, their expression is not triggered
before or after addition to the datatable)

Procedure then calls acceptchanges on dataset.

(still no expression values - all calculated column items return
system.dbnull - all other values appear as required)

---

I've included the rather extensive code for this below if anyone wants to
wade through it for me :). I belive I am doing something simple
incorrectly, but would greatly appreciate any advice or help.

Cheers

(you'll notice from the quote that i am not really passing the array from
one procedure to another, but using a readonly property from one of the
forms to access the array)

This form is where the user clicks the Insert button, it then requests the
array of datarows from the second form (a user control), and attempts to add
them to the datatable.

Private Sub InsertNow_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles InsertNow.Click

Dim InsertRows() As DataRow

Dim insertrow As DataRow

Dim QuoteDS As New quotes(Session, context)

Dim QuoteTable As DataTable = QuoteDS.TableProd



InsertRows = CType(Me.MainPanel.Controls(1), ins_ITQ).ProductRows

CType(Me.MainPanel.Controls(1), ins_ITQ).ClearPanel()

If InsertRows.Length > 0 Then

Dim maintable As DataTable = dsQuote.TableProd

Dim maxorder As Integer

If maintable.Select("Groupname = '" & InsertGroup.SelectedItem.Text &
"'").Length > 0 Then

MaxOrder = (maintable.Compute("max(order)", "groupname = '" &
InsertGroup.SelectedItem.Text & "'")) + 1

Else

MaxOrder = 0

End If



Dim count As Integer

For count = 0 To InsertRows.Length - 1

insertrow = InsertRows(count)

insertrow.Item("order") = maxorder

insertrow.Item("groupname") = Me.InsertGroup.SelectedItem.Text

QuoteTable.Rows.Add(insertrow)

insertrow.AcceptChanges()

Next

QuoteDS.DS.AcceptChanges()



Dim lc As New LiteralControl

lc.EnableViewState = False

lc.Text = "<script>window.opener.ForcePostBack(true);</script>"

Me.Page.Controls.Add(lc)

End If

End Sub

--== This next form is the user control - i've removed uneccessary code, to
primarily show the readonly property that returns the datarow array

Hi Chris,

This is fine documentated however in my opinion to much for a newsgroup.

Bring your problem down to the essentials and when needed do it in more
steps by sending them.

I saw you are talking about accept.changes, you know that this function is
needed when you do not want to update the changes in the dataset? It is
something as fix changes as if the update was done. (To be more precise all
rowstates are set to no changes)

However in my opinion is your desctription real to much to check the
problems for a newsgroup. I understand and appriciate that you did your best
to document it as good as possible.
