LINQ and dropdownlists

Hi there,

I just started working with Linq and am having trouble with adding and
removing items from a dropdownlist. The dropdownlist is bound to a
LinqDataSource. On the form is a gridview that lists some statistics
for a product and a value for each stat line. There is also an Add
statistic line in the template footer with a dropdownlist that should
have any statistics not currently associated with the product. I can
make that work but what I am having issue with is what to do if a
Statistic line is deleted but the data has not actually been updated
yet...how do I remove the Statistic value from the dropdownlist if the
database hasn't been impacted yet? I tried this and nothing happens.

protected void DropDownList1_D ataBound(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
DropDownList ddl = sender as DropDownList;
foreach (StatData sd in StatData)
{

ddl.Items.Remov e(ddl.Items.Fin dByValue(sd.Sta tisticName));
}
}

I feel like it should be done with filtering somehow but am unsure.
Thanks for any help!

Hi, I'm having trouble with multiple dynamically generated dropdownlists. On my web page I have several text boxes / labels / checkboxes and dropdownlists I have no problem setting the other controls to display what I would like them to, but the dropdownlist boxes are simply not working. I can't set the selectedindex to be different for each of the controls. What I'm doing is this:

I have an ASP.NET 2.0 page with two DropDownLists. I am using declarative data binding wherever possible and trying to minimize the use of code. The list of values in DropDownList DDL2 should be (filtered) dependent upon the selection in DDL1. I think this inevitably needs some code, but I'd be happy to be told otherwise! I have some code to handle OnSelectedIndexChanged for DDL1 that sets the FilterExpression associated with the...

I have a asp.net 1.1/vb application that has a page with a bunch of dynamically added User Controls. When I add the controls, I set the UserControl.EnableViewState to true. For all my controls with TextBoxes, I can get the value back out of the controls just fine. One of my User Controls has some DropDownLists as well as a TextBox. I get a value from the TextBox on postback, but not the DropDownLists. Even if I see a value selected when...

Hi all, I just embedded a dropdownlist templatefield inside a gridview. When I look at the control in design mode, I see 5 dropdownlists, when I bind the data to the gridview, I only bind to 3 dropdownlists. How can the number of controls that are itemtemplates can be controlled? That is, if in fact I want to display 5 dropdownlists containing the same data ?

Hi all: after reading different places/sites about linq... I ran into these questions: 1. What framework do we need to run linq ? (does it depend on what version of visual studio we have?) how about vs2008? is it different name space or framework for linq xml or linq sql? ( 2. do we need to have references to what linq's dlls. or namespaces? system core? 3. what name spaces are needed?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
