What is the error you are getting ? Have you tried pinging the machine with static IP ?

Sir

Used TCP/IP port 1433 in de connection string and its working only for .NET 2003, when i used de same thing in .NET 2005 it shows me an error like this

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

Maybe you need to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remote connections[^]

CONTAINS search with a FilterExpression?

Hello All,

I am using a SqlDataSource with a GridView on a ASP.NET 2005 page. I have a DropDownList (control parameter {0}) and a TextBox(control parameter {1}). The user picks the field they want to search in the DropDownList and then types in a search into the TextBox and it doesn't appear to like the use of LIKE in the SqlDataSource's FilterExpression property; i.e.

SqlDataSource1.FilterExpression = "{0} LIKE '{1}'"; produces a filter that searches on EXACT MATCHes only instead of STARTS WITH like the docs say. What would be ideal for my requirements is a CONTAINS search, really. I know I could use CharIndex -- at least in an explicit WHERE clause -- however, putting FilterExpression="CharIndex('{1}',{0})>0) raises a System.Data.EvaluateException: The expression contains undefined function call CharIndex() error.

Any hints? Thanks in advance.

Sincerely Yours,

You need to use wildcard characters if you don't want to find an exact match.

The % wildcard matches zero or more characters. If you change your code to

SqlDataSource1.FilterExpression = "{0} LIKE '{1}%'";

you will get records that start with the specified sequence rather than exactly matching it.

I have the need for a database that has a large number of fields and would be accessable via ASP.NET Web page.

The table would center around locations;

Fort Worth, Topeka, etc.

Each location has up to 28 Backup Batteries that require a semi-annual inspection;
This inspection includes Voltage, Conductance, Tempreture, and Voltage with the charger off.
A number of true/false quesiton are also associated to the inspection.

Would it be best to create four tables for the Backup Batteries, another for the locations and quesitons, and then create a relationship with the Locations table for everything else?

Or would it be smarter to just create one gigantic table that has upwards of 130 columns?

Thanks,

Off the top of my head, the following tables should be sufficient:

1. Table to store locations
2. Table to store types of inspection check e.g. Voltage, Temperature
3. Table to store inspection questions
4. Table to store location/battery combinations
5. Table to store location/inspection instance combinations
5. Table to store location/inspection instance/battery/inspection check result combinations
6. Table to store location/inspection instance/inspection question result combinations

Hi Paul, would I need to have a common Primary Key field for each one? and then would I also need to "join" them?

Thanks,

pmarfleet1-Nov-07 10:08

1-Nov-07 10:08

The primary keys for the tables would look like this:

1. LocationID
2. InspectionCheckItemID
3. InspectionQuestionID
4. LocationID | BatteryID
5. LocationID | InspectionID
6. LocationID | InspectionID | BatteryID | InspectionCheckItemID
7. LocationID | InspectionID | InspectionQuestionID

You should also consider setting up referential integrity between the primary and foreign keys in your tables to ensure the overall integrity of your data.

If you are planning on using an ActiveRecord design pattern then I suggest you use surrogate keys on your tables, as it tends to make the mapping more straightforward.

A Microsoft MVP has posted a Visual Studio add-on that puts project templates into VS for creating a LINQ to SharePoint project. The templates are posted on the CodePlex site at http://www.codeplex.com/LINQtoSharePoint[^]. This enables you to use LINQ against any SharePoint site you have access to.

There's only read access at this point but the next release will support SubmitChanges() as well.

For more information for developers on the Microsoft platform, see the US ISV blog[^].
