Hi All, I have been stuck with this problem for a long time and have not found any solution. suppose I have a page called a.aspx.vb and a class file called B.vb. in a.aspx.vb I create a new instance of B:

protected sub page_load()
dim cls as new B
dim lit as new literal
lit = b.createbutton
end sub

then say inside the B.vb I have:

protected function createbutton() as literal
dim lit as new literal
dim butt as new Button()
'this is where my problem is
addhandler butt.click, addressof method
lit.controls.add(butt)
return lit
end function

I want my code to do something on click. like...assign some value to some variables on a.aspx. say again in the a.aspx I want something like:

sub method
'on button click
dim something as string
something = "the button has been clicked"
end sub

But obviously it won't work just like that. so how do I do that??? I hope this explains what I need. Thanks for helping in advance.

Hi all, Here I am with my question again :) i am wondering how do I bind linq query to BindingNavigator or at least a BindingSource so I can bind it to BindingNavigator. say, I have go a BindingNavigator called bn (BindingNavigator bn) var query = from t in db.SOMETHINGS select t; I tried bn.BindingSource = query; and it was no help at all I also tried BindingSource bs = new BindingSource(); bs.DataSource = query; bn.BindingSource = bs that also return me errors. Basically I just wanted to achieve something like this with linq. Because I have started it with linq :( String strConn = "Data Source=DATASOURCE;Initial Catalog=DB;User ID=sa;Password=sa;"; SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(strConn); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * From [TRANSACTION]", conn); SqlCommandBuilder cmd = new SqlCommandBuilder(da); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); da.Fill(ds, "trans"); BindingSource bs = new BindingSource(ds, "trans"); //I can't simply use linq query result here :(:(:( bnPrevTrans.BindingSource = bs; Again, thank you guys ....

I got one more question that I think I have missed out. in this code: var query = from b in db.CATEGORies select b; foreach (var cat in query) { ... } in the code "var cat", what is the data type of that var if i need to pass that value to other function? again, thank you very much.

indeed... thank you

Hi all, I just started to learn about linq and have some question. say normally we would query something like this bt01DataContext db = new bt01DataContext("Data Source=SOURCE;Initial Catalog=XXX;User ID=XX;Password=XX;"); var query = from b in db.CATEGORies select b; foreach (var cat in query) { ... } now, I want split it into one separate class so that i will have the query all together in 1 file say Query.cs. public DATA TYPE** GetAllCategories() { try { var query = from b in db.CATEGORies select b; return query; } catch (Exception ex) { throw ex; } } in my code I want to call something like this Query q = new Query; var sampleQuery = q.GetAllCategories(); question: Do I have to use something else to replace the var? and what return DATA TYPE** should I use in order to get the result I want? i read from somewhere that i could use bt01(I have bt01.dbml) as data type but I couldn't get it to work when I try that.. any information would be greatly appreciated... thx guys

dear fellow programmers, i have been trying to achieve this but it's so hard. i am trying to say make an image and when i mouse down the image and drag it, i want to draw a line from the initial of the image to where my mouse is. and when i release it, the line will disappear. is there anyway I can achieve this? thanks all...
