How to display Message when Dataset is Null

I have an asp.net page using a repeater control to display a dataset. When
the dataset returned is null (no records matched the criteria) I want to
display a message to the effect "No matching records found". I can't figure
out how to do this.

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Lynnette

Add a DIV tag as HTMLGeneric with runat set to server. Before you bind to
the repeater check to see if the dataset is empty. If it is turn on the DIV
tags display property and turn off the repeater.

Hi, Is the datalist meant for one table or can I use it to display information from 2 different tables? Or should I be looking at a datagrid instead? I began my code and kinda ran into a snag where my last two columns I am displaying are ID fields, one for clientid and the other for empid. What I would really like is to display their actual names instead of the ids.

I cannot get my OleDbDataAdapter to update my database table from my local dataset table. The Knowledge Base doesn't seem to help - see item 10 below. I have a Microsoft Access 2000 database which indexes computer magazine articles for personal reference. I am developing a Visual Basic.NET program whose sole purpose is to enter new records into the database. No updates to existing entries, no deletions, and no display

Hello, I'm trying to fill my combobox per code, not with a DataSet because I want to have an empty row in it and this wasn't possible when working with a DataSet.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
