dataGridView help

[=?Utf-8?B?R2lkaQ==?=]

Hi,

I have a dataGridView in my win Form, and i get some information from my
DataBase (sql) into a dataTable.

I tried and tried and i can't display my result in the dataGridView.

in addition, I also want to edit the columns (change the headr and size), i
know i can do it with the columns collection, but i need to bind each column
to a coulmn in my dataBase, and i don't know how to do it.

this is my code:

com = new SqlCommand();
da = new SqlDataAdapter();
// dt = new DataTable();

//
// com
//

this.com.CommandText = "[Get_Message_By_Person]";
this.com.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure;
this.com.Connection = m_mc.Get_dbcon().GetConn();
this.com.Parameters.Add(new
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@RETURN_VALUE" ,
System.Data.SqlDbType.Int, 4, System.Data.ParameterDirection.ReturnValue,
false, ((System.Byte)(10)), ((System.Byte)(0)), "",
System.Data.DataRowVersion.Current, null));

//
// da
//
this.da.SelectCommand = this.com;

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter msg_to =
this.com.Parameters.Add(new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter("@msg_to",
System.Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 150));
msg_to.Value = employees_cb.Text;

da.Fill(msg_dt);

msg_dgv.DataSource = msg_dt;

thanks,
Gidi.

The first thing I notice about your sample is that nowhere is the msg_dt
Datatable created before the Fill method is called. You need to have
DataTable msg_dt = new DataTable();
somewhere before you pass it into the Fill method. Some exception handling
would have also been helpful, as you would have seen the exception if you
caught it.

Hi,

I've the DataTable msg_dt = new DataTable(); i just put it in the Initialze
part and not in this part of code, so i still have these 2 problems.

Thanks,
Gidi.

Hi Gidi,
I usually declare a dataset which houses a data table
that has field names and types the same as the selected fields in the
sproc.
I ask the dataadapter to fill the dataset's table then
pass the dataset back to the datagridview.
i.e.
void LoadData
{
myTypedDataset ds = myDataFillingFunction();
myDataGridView.DataSource = ds;
myDataGridview.DataMember = ds.myDataTable.TableName;
}

myTypedDataset myDataFillingFunction()
{
Connection stuff and parameter stuff
myTypedDataset d = new myTypedDataSet();
da.Fill(d.myDataTable);//intellsense will show you the table
return d;
}

As Peter said exception handling will allow you to see if the SPROC is
happy with your handiwork.
