I am using VS 2003 and trying to build a standalone application. I have
been writing all my asp.net work using DW and am just now trying to build a
application that will read some of the tables I had written out from my web
apps.
I can get my DataReader to read my data fine. But I wanted to use a
DataGrid, but it is apparently completely different????
I can do:
DataGrid1.DataS ource = dbReader
DataGrid1.DataB ind()
I get an error saying something about: "Complex DataBinding accepts as a
data source either an IList or an IListSource".
There also doesn't seem to be a DataBind() method to this DataGrid?
Why doesn't it work?
Can I not make a standalone program using the same techniques as I do in my
Web pages (asp.net)?
Thanks,
Tom

You can not bind a datareader to a datasource. You will need to either
load it into a datatable by looping through the datareader or use a
dataadapter to do what you want.

Is that something that something that you can only do in a web page? I
databind datareaders to a datagrid all the time?

Thsad,
Although that the grid have in net 1.x for ASPNET and Windowforms the same
name (DataGrid), do they act completely different (in Net 2.0 the new Grids
have different names, it is probably not for nothing that this confusing
thing is now done well).
However there are some things the same. The ASPNET datagrid accepts a
DataReader, a Datatable and a DataSet. A windowform DataGrid (in theory more
however in fact) only the last two.
To see a lot of samples about the datagrid can you look on our (non
commercial) website. http://www.vb-tips.com/default.aspx
I hope this helps,
Cor

in order to implement sorting, paging in a datagrid, can I
have the datasource of the datagrid a datareader or it
must be a dataset then I create a dataview and make it a
datasource of the datagrid?
The reason I am asking this question is because I already
created a datagrid and made its datasource a datareader,
yet, could not implement sorting or paging. Any idea of
how to approach it .

Hi, all! I have a populated Reader that I'm binding to a data grid,

Obviously the Reader is (duh) read only, so I was wondering...

I have recently joined a company and while looking at the source code I did
find the following:
They were accessing data from database using dataReader and after that
passing it to List Class.
then accessing that data ( i,.e in List Box, dataGrid etc)
I was thinking that there is no need to pass it to List Class. Any
suggestions would be appreciated.
Also they were doing the same with dataSet..passing it to datatable.

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