datagridview optimistic concurrency null problem

It seems to me there are real problems with the datagridview (along
with the detailsview and form view) control when using optimistic
concurrency with fields that can be null. Trying to use these controls
I have many times had the update not work with no error generated.
After much experimentation I have narrowed it down to how the Update
Command is generated.

To make optimistic currency work, the builder generated an update
statement with a WHERE clause which has each field matched on its
original value to ensure that the record will not be updated if any
field has been changed. If any original value is null no match is ever
found and no update is performed. Just to prove the point I created a
detailsview form to go against the Northwind Customers table. The
first record has a null Region so any update does nothing - no update
but no error msg. I then changed the UpdateCommand of the SQL Data
Source to Region is Null and the update failed. Also if I did not
check Optimistic Concurrency updates work.

Is there a way to get Optimistic Concurrency to work with null data. I
though that 'convertemptyst ringtonull' might do somthing for this
problem but it didn't. I'm also surprised that I did not see more
people having this problem. Am I missing something that is obvious?

Is there a way to turn off optimistic concurrency in ASP.NET when updating a record via the oleDBdataAdapter/oleDBcommandBuilder? If you use the Microsoft ASP.NET tools you can turn it off and thus modify the SQL statement so that it doesn't include the WHERE portion, but I'm not sure how to do the same thing in the code. I do my code-behind in VB. Thanks!

I've chosen to implement the "optimistic concurrency" model in my application. To assist in that, I've added a ROWVERSION (TIMESTAMP) column to my main tables. I read the value of the column in my select, remember it, and then use it in the update. It works just fine when I have full control of the whole process. I want to do the same for my GridView/SqlDataSource combinations. I typically select from a view and update the corresponding...

In 'Data Adapter Configuration Wizard' for OleDbDataAdapter, there's a checkbox called 'Use optimistic concurrency' that allows to turn on/off the option. I don't use the wizard, I create MyDataAdapter using the following, MyDataAdapter = new New OleDbDataAdapter(MySql, MyDatabase) The question is how to turn off the 'Use optimistic concurrency' option in my case. Thanks.

Hi, I'm using a detailsview control with an SqlDataSource control. My Update query isn't working, and I've narrowed it down to the optimistic concurrency parameters - i.e. when I comment them out of the query, it works. What seems to be happening is that if a field is NULL when it is read in through the select statement, it's causing the update statment not to find a match. I've got ConvertEmptyStringToNull not set (so it should...

I have a DataGridView bound to an MS Access table. This is a single- user application. When the User is adding or editing a row, the User may click on a Control elsewhere. That Control has context which I use to programmatically set *other* r/o cell values for the currently selected grid row. So, after that click on another control, and stuffing the related cell values, I want to seamlessly allow the user to resume editing/adding that row...

I was suddenly told to whip up a web project in ASP.Net 2.0. The last few weeks have been a crash course in new technology. I've done some 1.1 web work but it's been a while. The basics are really quite simple and I want to keep it that way. I'm using virtually nothing but grid views and detailsviews. The grids are used solely for display. Each row has an edit hyperlink that goes to a detailsview for actual edits and inserts. The...

(If I'm overlooking anything, please let me know.) First, my only concern is updating single records in a Detailsview using an ObjectDataSource. The target table has a timestamp field. Assume a single primary key. Create your xsd. Drag the table onto the xsd. Then manually edit the Update statement to simplify it. Essentially 'Update <tableset blah = blah Where (PK=@PK) and (ts=@ts)'. (Get rid of all that auto-generated...

Hi, Sql-Server 2000, 2005. A report fetches a lot of rows using the "WITH (ROWLOCK)" syntax (the sql is generated on the fly by a tool and not easily changeable). SELECT col1, col2 FROM mytab WITH (ROWLOCK) WHERE ...." The select-clause runs for several minutes. Another user fetches one of those rows and tries to update it. The result is a lock timeout.
