thanks Guffa....

Thanks a lot, Paul... NEWBIES

app.config for all other apps?? Putting config in a straight xml file feels like re-invention of the wheel to me - .NET provides some great libraries for dealing with .config files.

Hie, Finally, my problem is solved. Thank you very much, Niklas. Regards, Aaron

Well, this question is totally new topic. So please post it to a new section. Thanks.

Using a template column, as suggested, allows you to control your binding pretty precisely. So you can have as many asp controls inside a single column as you want, with appropriate databinding expressions for each. Keep in mind, that you can also have a databinding expression that calls a function in your code behind file. For example, you could have this function in your code: Public Function GetAutoAssignIndex(ByVal AutoAssign As Boolean) As Integer Dim index As Integer = 0 If AutoAssign = True Then index = 1 End If Return index End Function Your databind might look similar to this: This example is for a dropdown containing objects with an "AutoAssign" property defined.

In Page_Load you need to get the ID from the querystring (you may also need to convert it to whatever type the id is in your db as the querystring value is a string) then use it to extract only the record with that id from your database. You can then set your edit controls to the values from the database record like, if you have a dataset with the results.. txtName.Text = dataSet.Tables[0]Rows[0]["Name"] If I had a better memory I would remember more.

Yes access does support this. Its called an AutoNumber or Counter. store your internet favourites online - www.my-faves.co.uk

I completely agree with Christian in that you will have to test/support this in different browsers. I supplied some code that was tested in IE 6. Christian suggested clearing the text in the span (setting innerText to ""). However, I just hid the text that was there in case it needed to be displayed later. function hideText() { document.getElementById("TextToHide").style.display = "none"; } function runHideTextTimer() { window.setTimeout('hideText()', 3000) } Here is the text you want to hide. Hope this helps. Ryan Bost http://www.sugarcoding.com

The exception class SqlException exposes a property called Number. The OleDbException class does not. If you're using OleDb against an Access database, you'd want to determine how the "primary key" error is reflected in OleDbException - take a look at OleDbException in the SDK documentation. OleDbException does provide an ErrorCode property and an Errors collection - both may be useful for this purpose. I don't know what ErrorCode is returned on a "primary key already exists" error, but you could find out easily enough catching the OleDbException, setting your Message.InnerHtml value to the ErrorCode, and running a test where you try to insert a duplicate record.

How can I counter check it when I enter some ID, let's say, ID - P0002 is not in the database. So the datagrid will invisible. Then, label1.visible = true. The initial part, I don't understand. Please help.

I'm working on something similar. What do you have so far?

You should really parameterise your command. What you have here, if it worked, is suseptable to an injection attack. cmdSql = New SqlCommand("Select * From Peripheral WHERE PCID=@PCID", myConnection) cmdSql.Parameters.Add("@PCID",SqlDbType.VarChar, 10).Value = Tpcid The above is much safer.

Select Right(Replicate('',10) + Convert(varchar(11),Convert(Decimal(10,2),SUM(PeriPrice))),11) FROM Peripheral Where PCID='P0003'

DotNet wrote: How come I get this error? Exactly what the compiler message is saying. You mistyped Value. C# is case sensitive - Value begins with a capital V See: HtmlInputText Class[^] Also, you really should use code behind classes. Coding directly on the ASPX page isn't really good practice.
