Select statement in Asp.Net project?

[Guest]

I have the following code on my pageLoad event:



taComp = new dsCompTableAdapters.CompTableAdapter();
dtComp = new dsComp.CompDataTable();
taComp.Fill(dtComp);
WbGrid.DataSource = dtComp;

if (!this.IsPostBack)
{
WbGrid.DataBind();
}


OK the above works fine, but , i have a search textBox which i want someone
to search for a specific record in my comp table,.... how can i allow someone
to search for that record ?

they type some text in my search textBox, they click a button, and i want to
run an sql statement somehow against my datatable/tableAdapter/dataset to
retrieve all matching records...

can anyone help me?

Hi,

I guess you'll need to configure taComp adequately (its SelectCommand) - add
a parameter or create dynamic sql statements.

Hi,
well the problem is that if i add the parameter, i can't use something like:
select * from comp where Name like '%@param1%'

when i try to call taComp.fill(dtComp); the extra parameter that should
appear after dtComp is not there anymore, if i remove the (like) keyword and
use = instead it is ok. I need a closest match type of sql on this.

And i can't get access to the SelectCommand from my code? How can i replace
that SelectCommand at runtime?

It used to be so easy with sqlDataAdapter controls, with Visual Studio 2003,
now it is a pain just getting a simple select going with Visual Studio 2005

Can you help out? How can a user expect to know a piece of information
exactly how it should be typed in the search box? i need that like keyword
sql select statement for searching a table with 5000 records.

Ok never mind,
i guess the only way to use a "true" search is to have a stored procedure on
the SQL Server and then calling it, so that the Where MyField like
'%somedata%'; works inside the web project.

ArtMic,

Did you try it first in the Query analyzer what you want to achieve, that
you can always use in any DataAdapter select statement.
