ds. relations problem with dataset

[kjewell23]

Hi. I have the code working just fine except all the data isn't coming up with the ds.relations code. Could you see what I'm doing wrong or what else I need to add. Code down below
Dim adapter As OdbcDataAdapter = New OdbcDataAdapter (command)
Dim ds As DataSet = New DataSet()
adapter.SelectC ommand = New OdbcCommand("se lect rmsfiles2.obcop 200.line#, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.ordno, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.quano, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.quana, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.quans, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.c2rdt, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.unitm, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.actsp, rmsfiles2.obcop 200.prdno from rmsfiles2.obcop 200 where ordno = " & Order.ToString( ), myConnection)
adapter.Fill(ds , "OBCOP200")

adapter.SelectC ommand = New OdbcCommand("se lect rmsfiles2.mspmp 100.ptyp1, rmsfiles2.mspmp 100.ptyp2, rmsfiles2.mspmp 100.descp, rmsfiles2.mspmp 100.prdno from rmsfiles2.obcop 200 inner join rmsfiles2.mspmp 100 on rmsfiles2.obcop 200.prdno = rmsfiles2.mspmp 100.prdno where rmsfiles2.obcop 200.ordno = " & Order.ToString( ), myConnection)
adapter.Fill(ds , "MSPMP100")

ds.Tables(0).Ta bleName = "OBCOP200"
ds.Tables(1).Ta bleName = "MSPMP100"
Dim relation As New DataRelation("O BCOP200MSPMP100 ", ds.Tables("OBCO P200").Columns( "prdno"), ds.Tables("MSPM P100").Columns( "prdno"), False)
' ds.Relations.Ad d("OBCOP200MSPM P100", ds.Tables("OBCO P200").Columns( "prdno"), ds.Tables("MSPM P100").Columns( "prdno"), True)
ds.Relations.Ad d(relation)

gridview1.DataS ource = ds
gridview1.DataB ind()
If ds.Tables(0).Ro ws.Count = 0 Then
lbl_error.Visib le = True
gridview1.Visib le = False
Else
lbl_error.Visib le = False
gridview1.Visib le = True
End If

If ds.Tables(1).Ro ws.Count = 0 Then
lbl_error.Visib le = True
gridview1.Visib le = False
Else
lbl_error.Visib le = False
gridview1.Visib le = True
End If

I don't have that installed on my machine so It don't help me. Its all the same code except the sql commands and of course the tables

You must have Nortwind SQL Server db installed for this sample to run. Place a DataGrid (not DataGridView) object on the form. Here's you Form_Load event handler implementation:

        private void Form1_Load( object sender, EventArgs e )
        {
            string szConn = "Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=Northwind;Data Source=server-name";
            string szSQL = "select * from dbo.Categories";
            SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection( szConn );
            SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand( szSQL );
 
            if( conn.State != ConnectionState.Open )
                conn.Open();
 
            command.Connection = conn;
            SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter( command );
            DataSet ds = new DataSet();
            adapter.Fill( ds, "Categories" );
 
            szSQL = "select * from Products";
            command.CommandText = szSQL;
            adapter.Fill( ds, "Products" );
 
            DataRelation relation = new DataRelation(
                "CategoryProduct", ds.Tables["Categories"].Columns["CategoryID"],
                ds.Tables["Products"].Columns["CategoryID"], true );
            ds.Relations.Add( relation );
 
 
            this.dataGrid1.DataSource = ds;
            this.dataGrid1.DataMember = "Categories";
            conn.Close();
        }

A DataGridView is not hierarchical by design so you can present the contents of only one table of the dataset at a time. Try to set the DataMember property to the specific table and massage the data beforehand.

Does your first datatable contain the fields you're missing from the grid now?

[kjewell23]

the fields that im missing is in the second table i tried both tables for the datamember and still missing
