Create a Collection in C#
-
It sounds to me like you're looking at having a Dictionary of Dictionaries like this:
private Dictionary> dictionary = new Dictionary>();
public void Add(string id, string fieldValue, ClassRepresentingOtherItems items)
{
if (!dictionary.ContainsKey(id))
{
Dictionary childDictionary = new Dictionary();
dictionary.Add(id, childDictionary);
}
dictionary[id].Values.Add(fieldValue, items);
}This allows you to associate many fields with the same ID.
I have no code written yet as I'm just looking for ideas. I am just reading the values in a field in records in a database table. There are multiple records with the value H1 and I want to get each value C1 in each record with ID H1. And then I would count the number of occurences of C1 from the records with ID H1. I am looking how to do this using C#

The just add the collection items together! Use a foreach loop, or even a Linq method:
var sum = collection.Sum(item => item);
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Linq Method Would probably be the best as I have to write it out to a field. I'll put together some code and see what you think?
Sounds good!

Im trying to do something like this: var complexQuery = from e in orgContext.CreateQuery("Eval") join c in orgContext.CreateQuery("Contract") on e["contractid"] equals c["contractnameid"] I want to do a Count of the complexQuery and whatever the count is I want to add this to a variable so I can write this out to a field.

Um...you do realize that a Collection has a Count method?[^] So to get all the elements in your total sequence:
var complexQuery = from e in orgContext.CreateQuery("Eval")
join c in orgContext.CreateQuery("Contract")
on e["contractid"] equals c["contractnameid"];
int count = complexQuery.Count();If you are trying to get the count of elements with matching ids (i.e. a collection of counts) then just Group the linq query and select the count of each group.

You're welcome!

I have a table in a database containing a number of records. The records have an ID number i.e. H1, H2, H3. Each record also contains a field called C1 which contains a value. There can be multiple records with the same ID. I want to read all the values of fields C1 for records with the ID H1 into an array. I don't know exactly how many records there are with the ID H1. I don't want to do this in SQL. Does anyone know how I would create a collection holding the values?

Why not? If the set is small, like say less than 100,000 than a query each time is likely to be best. If the set is large, like 10 billion, then dragging all of the records across the wire probably isn't a good idea. Which suggests you basic assumption of a solution is wrong and again SQL would probably be better for a real solution.
