Getting results from a stored procedure to populate a GridView - asp.net

Question

I have a windows aspx form that I have a TextBox, Button and a GridView. The TextBox is stored as a variable #subschedule and passed to a stored procedure. What I'd like to do is to populate the results of that procedure into my GridView. Can anyone suggest a way to do this?
Thank you

Answer 1

Two popular options:
1.. Code Behind:
string subSchedule = txtSubSchedule.Text.Trim();
//you'll create a new class with a method to get a list of customers
//from your database as others answers have demonstrated
IEnumerable<Customer> custs = MyDataLayer.GetCustomers(subSchedule);
myGrid.DataSource = custs;
myGrid.DataBind();
2.. Use a SqlDataSource. This is a quick and dirty way to bind your ASP.NET server control to a stored procedure. It's got its easy implementation pros, and some other cons :
<asp:GridView id="myGrid"
runat="server"
AutoGenerateColumns="true"
DataSourceID="ds1" />
<asp:SqlDataSource
id="ds1"
runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:MyNorthwind%>"
SelectCommandType="StoredProcedure"
SelectCommand="GetSchedule">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter name="SubSchedule"
ControlID="txtSubSchedule" Propertyname="Text"/>
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>

Add a reference to System.Data.SqlClient
Then create a method for your calling your stored procedure... Maybe wrap it up in a class for database calls.
public static class DataBase
{
public static DataTable myProcedureName(String subSchedule)
{
var dt = new DataTable();
using (var cnx = new SqlConnection("myConnectionString"))
using (var cmd = new SqlCommand {
Connection = cnx,
CommandText = "myProcedureName",
CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure,
Parameters = {
new SqlParameter("#subSchedule", subSchedule)
}
})
{
try
{
cnx.Open();
dt.Load(cmd.ExecuteReader());
return dt;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new Exception("Error executing MyProcedureName.", ex);
}
}
}
}
Then call it...
gvMyGrid.DataSource = DataBase.myProcedureName(txtSubSchedule.Text);
gvMyGrid.DataBind();

You'll need to use the DataSource property:
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
// Open the connection
using (SqlConnection cnn = new SqlConnection(
"Data Source=.\sqlexpress;Initial Catalog=AcmeRentals;Integrated Security=True"))
{
cnn.Open();
// Define the command
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand())
{
cmd.Connection = cnn;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.CommandText = storedProcedureName;
// Define the data adapter and fill the dataset
using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd))
{
da.Fill(dt);
}
}
}
// This is the key code; you can set the DataSource to "collection"
gridView.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;
gridView.DataBind();

Answer 4

command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
command.CommandText = "SPPUBLISHER";
adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(command);
adapter.Fill(ds);
connection.Close();
GridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
GridView1.DataBind();
