Custom button in DetailsView updates value in Database - asp.net

I'm trying to practice and started with small game. Users can register and so on.
Now I have no idea how to perform user to "work", I have GridView and DetailsView, in GridView user selects company and it displays in DetailsView. In DetailsView I have custom button with "work" title. In database I have Table with default value of "300 dollar". And when user click on custom button "work" in DetailsView I want change the value in the database, something like 300+400 dollar = 700. dollar. So the new updated value needs to be 700. I tried to perform it and can't find solution.
I have .aspx page with "salary" label and custom button.
asp:DetailsView ID="DetailsView1" runat="server".....
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label5" runat="server" Text="Salary($):" Font-Size="Small" ForeColor="#9F9B9B"></asp:Label>
<asp:Label ID="lblSalary" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Salary") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<asp:TemplateField ShowHeader="False">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Button ID="BtnWork" runat="server" CausesValidation="false" CommandName=""
Text="Work" OnClick="BtnWork_Click" />
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
And aspx.cs page:
protected void BtnWork_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MembershipUser currentUser = Membership.GetUser();
Guid currentUserId = (Guid)currentUser.ProviderUserKey;
string ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
string sql = "SELECT * FROM Custon_MoneyWork WHERE UserId=#UserId";
}

It sounds like you don't need/want the DetailsView to do the update since the value is not coming from the user and you are using a custom button and not an update on the DetailsView. If that is the case, you can simple use a SqlCommand and execute the update in the button click event handler that you stubbed out in your post.
If this was not your goal, let me know, and I'll do my best to suggest another option.

How to get Text box value from Grid view header template?

I want grid view header template textbox value. I write code for getting value but it return null.
<asp:Button ID="btngetLocationDate" runat="server" Text="Get Filtered Data" OnClick="getTextBoxValue"></asp:Button>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Mobile Number">
<HeaderTemplate>
Mobile Number:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtMobilenumber" runat="server" ></asp:TextBox>
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="lblmobile" runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("Mobile Phone") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
And On the code behind.cs i write that code but it returns null
protected void getTextBoxValue(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//TableCell cell1 = TrackerGrid.HeaderRow.Cells[0];
TextBox mobilenumber = (TrackerGrid.HeaderRow.FindControl("txtMobilenumber") as TextBox) ;
string mobile = mobilenumber.Text;
How can I resolve this ? please help me!
I've just had a similar problem by trying to get textbox text from the footer row. I'm not sure if this is the best way to get around this problem but this should work if FindControl() successfully assigns the textbox.
TextBox mobilenumber = (TrackerGrid.HeaderRow.FindControl("txtMobilenumber") as TextBox);
string mobile = Request.Form[mobilenumber.UniqueID];
EDIT: As VDWWD commented, Request.Form is a bad practice. But for my particular usage I couldn't find any other way to get the data from a textbox on button click due to my unorganized postbacks.

Asp.net gridview edit without editbutton

I have regular asp.net gridview,and i want to enable editmode in each row,and also without editbutton (like excel grid).
Edited data i want to save to my database by clicking "Post" button outside the grid(one button for whole grid).
How can i reach it?
To achieve this, you are going to have to use ItemTemplates for each column with textboxes in them as the control..
ASP
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Heading Title" SortExpression="Heading Title">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="tbTextbox" runat="server" Width="65px" Text='<%# Bind("ColumnNameYouWantToView") %>'></asp:TextBox>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
After this is set up properly, you will want the post button. You can either put it in the grid or outside the grid. I use both, but here is the one inside the grid as a footer.
ASP
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Button ID="btnView" runat="server" Text="View" OnClick="btnView_Click" Width="40px" />
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
<asp:Button ValidationGroup="UPDATE" ID="btnUpdate" OnClick="btnUpdate_Click" runat="server" Text="Update" Width="50px"></asp:Button>
</FooterTemplate>
<FooterStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" VerticalAlign="Middle" Width="50px" />
</asp:TemplateField>
So far, what I have found that works best is using a foreach statement in your button click. The biggest flaw with this idea is that it will update every single row. It works, but if you only change a single row at a time, it will update all of them. I have my pager set to 10, so 10 rows are always updated (unless you are just searching for a single record and update it, the only that single record is updated).
Code Behind C#
protected void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["databaseConnection"].ConnectionString);
conn.Open();
//finds the controls within the gridview and updates them
foreach (GridViewRow gvr in gvGridViewName.Rows)
{
string ID = (gvr.FindControl("lblId") as Label).Text.Trim();//finds the control in the gridview
string anotherControl = ((TextBox)gvr.FindControl("tbTextBox")).Text.Trim();//finds the textbox in the gridview
//Your update or insert statements
}
This is how I do it. You can also look into Real World Grids but I haven't had much luck with this as I would always get an error if a textbox was empty. This however, is suppose to be "smart" enough to just update the rows that have been changed, but again, I didn't have much luck of doing it this way. Hope this helps!

Using hyperlink with querystring for gridview row

Is there someway to turn the row of a gridview into a hyperlink so that when a user opens it in a new tab for example, it goes to that link? Right now I am using a LinkButton and when the user opens it in a new tab, it doesn't know where to go.
I figured the .aspx code would look something like:
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<Hyperlink ID="hyperlink" runat="server" ForeColor="red" HtmlEncode="false" navigationURL="testUrl.aspx"
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
The only thing is, our URLs are set up in the C# code behind as a query string, so I'm not sure how to pass that into the navigationURL section.
I'm guessing there's something I can do on the page_load with the query string to redirect to the page I need, but this is my first time working with query strings so I'm a little confused.
Thanks!
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%#String.Format("~/controller.aspx?routeID1={0}&routeID2={1}", Eval("routeid1"), Eval("routeid2"))%>'></asp:HyperLink>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
routeid1 and routeid2 are passed as query strings to the controller of that page.
What I did recently is modified my class to have a readonly property that constructs the A tag for me. This way I have control over what gets displayed; just text or a link.
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="ColumnItem_Title" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("DownloadATag") %>'> </asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
The code behind just binds an instance of the class to the gridview. You can bind the gridview whenever, on load on postback event, etc.
Dim docs As DocViewList = GetViewList()
GridViewDocuments.DataSource = docs
GridViewDocuments.DataBind()
In the above code, the DocViewList, instantiated as docs, is a list of a class that has all the properties that are needed to fill my GridView, which is named GridViewDocuments here. Once you set the DataSource of your GridView, you can bind any of the source's properties to an item.
Something like:
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton_Title" runat="server" target="_blank"
PostBackUrl='<%# Eval(Request.QueryString["title"]) %>'
or binding them from the RowCreated event:
protected void GridView_OnRowCreated(Object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if(e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
(e.Row.FindControl("LinkButton_Title") as LinkButton).PostBackUrl = Request.QueryString["title"]))
}
}

ASP .Net Gridview bind to data only when clicking update

Here's how I want the control to work. Click edit on a row in gridview. There's a textbox in one of the columns, I would like it to be blank even though there's data in the database for that column, but when I click update I would like whatever new text the user entered to update the database for that column. It would be one-way databinding, but the other way?
Here's how I did it using an sql datasource with the select,update and delete methods generated.
First, you'll need to make any column that you want to edit like this a template field with an item template and and edit item template:
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
onrowupdating="GridView1_RowUpdating">
<Columns>
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="City" SortExpression="City">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label runat="server" Text='<%# Eval("City") %>'></asp:Label>
</ItemTemplate>
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="txtCityEdit" Text=""></asp:TextBox>
</EditItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
Next handle the gridview's on update event:
protected void GridView1_RowUpdating(object sender, GridViewUpdateEventArgs e)
{
//find the value control who's value you want
TextBox tb = (TextBox)GridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].FindControl("txtCityEdit");
//since we are not using a bound column for city we need to explicitly insert the value
//into the update parameter.
SqlDataSource1.UpdateParameters["City"].DefaultValue = tb.Text;
}
Even if you are using something other than an SQL Datasource this should be the basic solution.
// Find notes textbox
TextBox tb = (TextBox)MyActiveReferrals.Rows[e.RowIndex].FindControl("NotesTextBox");
e.NewValues.Add("Notes", tb.Text);
I used a linq data source.

give the ID as a custom attribute to checkbox in a grid for manual update

I like to update just the value of my checkbox in a asp grid.
so i thought i bind the id to the checkbox ( but how?) and fire an update in code behind by clicking the checkbox.
but how can I get the ID, and where I have to bind this id to get it in code behind in the event?
Thanks
Here is what I've managed to do. (Be aware there should be an easier way to do this. I'm very new to ASP.NET)
Here you have a TemplateField in a GridView. Inside it there is an UpdatePanel and the CheckBox is inside it. This is done to make the checking of the TextBox do post in the backgroung (ajax). You might not need it (UpdatePanel) at all.
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Private" SortExpression="IsPrivate">
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="upIsPrivate" runat="server" UpdateMode="Always" ChildrenAsTriggers="true">
<ContentTemplate>
<asp:CheckBox ID="chkIsPrivate" runat="server" OnCheckedChanged="chkIsPrivate_CheckedChanged" AutoPostBack="true" />
</ContentTemplate>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
And this is the method that handles this. Notice that I get the Id from the GridViewRow that contains the CheckBox:
GridViewRow row = (GridViewRow)((CheckBox)sender).Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent;
protected void chkIsPrivate_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (editMode)
{
GridViewRow row = (GridViewRow)((CheckBox)sender).Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent;
Int32 id = (Int32)uxPhoneCallList.DataKeys[row.RowIndex]["Id"];
CheckBox isPrivate = (CheckBox)row.FindControl("chkIsPrivate");
PhoneCall phoneCall = PhoneCallManager.GetById(id);
...
}
}
