Problem deleting rows from dataset (VS2003, VB)

Hello,

I have a datagrid (grdShots) on a form, and a button to allow the user
to delete records from the dataset underlying the grid. My code
appears to work, because the row disappears from the datagrid. But the
delete is not being updated back to the data source, because if I exit
the app then start it again, the record reappears in the grid - it has
not been deleted. Code for deleting the row is as follows. Column 0
in the grid is the ID of the record, which is its primary key.

Dim iImage as Long
Dim dr as DataRow

iImage = grdShots.Item(g rdShots.Current RowIndex, 0)
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to delete this?",
MsgBoxStyle.Que stion + MsgBoxStyle.Yes No) = MsgBoxResult.Ye s Then
dr = dsShots.Tables( "Shot").Rows.Fi nd(iImage)
dsShots.Tables( "Shot").Rows.Re move(dr)
daShots.Update( dsShots)
End If

What more do I need to do?

Marshall,

Replace the remove by a "delete" equivalent.

The remove, removes a datarow from a datatable/dataset
The delete marks a row as to be removed by the next update or by an
acceptchanges.

I hope this helps,

Cor

Unbelievable! Thank you, that worked. When would anyone use the
Remove method, for heaven's sake?? I can't get my head around what its
purpose is.

Possibly after a Remove that row will not be altered on the DB after a
resynch?

I'm having difficulty deleting rows from a datagrid. I want to put a "delete" button on a form and achieve the same functionality as hitting the "delete" key on the keyboard for the selected row of a datagrid. I really want to do it generically so I have subclassed datagrid and made my own delete row method but I can only get it to work for datasources that are datatables or dataviews. Specifically when the datasource is a DataSet I...

I'm delving into using ADO.NET for the first time. In fact, I've never done any database work using C# at all so all of this is new to me. Please bear that in mind if I am asking stupid questions.

Hi All. I have a routine that checks a SQL Table for all records 3 months prior to a predetermined date, then I insert them into an Archive DB then delete those records from the original table. When I do a "select" for the records, I load them into a dataset, use an "insert" statement to insert the info into the second table (by a for next loop and using executenonquery , then a "delete" statement to remove them.

I need to delete ALL rows in a dataset and currently use the method in the code snippet below, which works fine. However, there can be 100,000 rows, which makes the FILL, DR.Delete and UPDATE take a very long time. Is there a way to simply delete the entire dataset and then update that to the datasource more effectinely? Thanks! Bob Day

Is it safe to do what is below? deleting from a resultset while you are processing it? I don't know how dynamic the SQL database is. I assume you get a cursor to live dataset. Even if it is a cursor as opposed to a table, will the cursor's integrity be ruined if the current record is deleted? $q2=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE id1=5", $link); while ($row2=mysql_fetch_array($q2)) { //do some stuff with resultset...

Hi, I have a typed unbound dataset that is passed to a datahandling class to be filled. The datahandling class fills it from a sproc using an oledbDataAdapter (SQLAnywhere database) The only table in the dataset has two int32 columns. There is one row of data and as expected, column 0 contains an int and column 1 contains a null. I want to update column1. The following code executes but the row cell remains unchanged.
