can't getstring & display datareader

Hi,
I want to display a single record datareader and get a value from it. But I
can't do both together.

After "dim dr as Oledbdatareader =cmCat.ExecuteR eader()", the following is
OK(display this single record):
repPage.datasou rce=dr
repPage.databin d
The following is OK(retriving value):
dr.read()
dim thiscat=dr.gets tring(1)
But the following is error:
repPage.datasou rce=dr
repPage.databin d
dr.read()
dim thiscat=dr.gets tring(1)

Is that after binding,the cursor is at the next after last row, and I can't
get the first row(the only row)?

How can I do both together? Can any one give me a hit?

Thanx

I would like to create a 2D string list (2D ArrayList ???). I would like to pass in a table or query as a parameter and have both columns transform into a 2D ArrayList. When I sort the one 'column' in the ArrayList, the other is automatically sorted and so I can use IndexOf without fear. This is because I will be going through 20,000 some odd records and don't want to use a Lookup type of table/query; I figure an ArrayList.IndexOf method...

Hi All I'm doing a 'select * from table' in my DataReader below and populating an array with the results. Obvisouly I'm only getting the first field from the results by the use of the GetString(0). My Question is how do I find out how many elements there are to GetString without having to know how many fields are in the table? Thanks

Hi. I am returning to an old bit of code in our program and need to figure out how to sort my columns on bind. I am sorting on Date (mostly) and some other values. Problem is, the code is an ArrayList that seems to do some tricky stuff with a chache object and I am unable to get any sort of sorting happening.

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,...
