Binding an Array to a DataGrid

1 New Member
Hi, I am very new to ASP.Net, kindly help me. This is what i want to do.
I am primarily working on two classes PatientInfo and PatientInfoUtil ity.
PatientInfo:
PatientInfo is the class object that stores the data representation of the patients table in the database.It exposes properties such as name, Id, City etc.
And it provides the following Constructors
public PatientInfo()
– all values populated with defaults
public PatientInfo(str ing id, string first, string last, string suffix)
– rest populated with default values which can be set manually
public PatientInfo(Dat aRow dr)
– values populated from the database
PatientInfoUtil ity
The PatientInfoUtil ity provides database access to this table and provides the following method:
public ArrayList RetrieveAllPati ents(bool active)
– retrieves active patients if 'active' is true, otherwise, returns the inactive patients

Now i do not know how to bind this array to a datagrid. Can anyone please help me.

Thanks

Hi,

This is how you can bind the Arraylist to Datagrid

Dim a1 as new Arraylist=Retri eveAllPatients( ........)

Datagrid1.Datas ource = a1

Hi Everybody, its about my 4th day on C# and all seems to be going smoothly however I've started to get into Datagrids and in particular binding data sources to them. In the documentation it says I can bind all the usual Datasets etc but it also says I can bind the following: Any component that implements the IListSource interface Any component that implements the IList interface Now I have a class that holds lots of repeating data,...

When looking at the help files for datagrid I see a lot of information for how to data bind the datagrid to a database. The help information mentions that data binding can be done also to an array, but gives no further information than that. How would I set up a data binding to an array? Would this be a .net array? How is the array configured? Thanks,

Hi everyone, I'm binding an ArrayList to a DataGrid for the first time (I'm used to binding DataSets and DataTables) and I was wondering if I could somehow "name" the ArrayList, so that I can refer to it as a DataField in an asp:BoundColumn? In essence, I'm doing this: ArrayList Arr1 = new ArrayList();

Well, conceptually this is what I want to do. I was hoping to use an ArrayList to build a (dynamic) array of string arrays, and then bind the ArrayList object to a DataGrid. I can do that, but it doesn't give me the results that I wanted. Is there a way to successfully do this? I even tried to bind a multidimensional array (string ) to a DataGrid, but an exception is thrown with the message "Array was not a one-dimensional array". I'm...

What I have is three forms. Form one with buttons 1, 2 and 3; and forms 2 and 3 with datagrids. Button 1 populates arrays a(i,j) and b(i,j) with values. Button 2 creates a datatable containing the a(i,j) array then adds that table to a dataset which is in turn bound to a datagrid in an instance of form 2 called matrixa. Button 3 creates a datatable containing the b(i,j) array then adds that table to a dataset which is in turn bound to...

Hey, I Tried to bind a DataGrid to an ArrayList, and had 2 problems: 1. The DataGrid shows the Length property of the items instead of their text - how can I change that? 2. After binding, I add new elements to the ArrayList but the DataGrid doesnt refresh's it's view - I have to set the DataSource property of the DataGrid to Nothing and then re bind it to the ArrayList! Isnt there a "pretier" way? Thanks ahead

Perhaps I have the wrong construct, or misunderstand arrays in vb (2003).... I've loaded a two-dimensional array (168 by 28) into memory as AcctArray. {Dim AcctArray (500,28) as string...} The AcctArray is loaded from a Quickbooks table, so there's no intrinsic dataset to assign as datasource.... I want to have a combo table (or list table or whatever), currently named cbAccounts, that can scroll through and maybe select items in the...

Hi there, I have a two dimensional array which I would like to bind to a datagrid, however I've spent all afternoon googling for a solution and I can't find one anywhere. The best I've come up with is binding a 1 dimensional array to a datagrid and that for whatever reason gives me the array element lengths rather than the values. Any pointers or help would really be appreciated, in VB.net is possible?

Is it possible to bind a Datagrid to a 2 dimentional Array? Or even a Collection? I know Linq can in vb2008 but I don't want to download 2008 just yet. Lots of examples binding text boxes to Id arrays or DataGrids to Databases but I can't quite get my head around what to do for datagrid to Array. A
