hi
thanks for the answer, however i tried the following and it didnt work:

cmdsqlcommandupdate.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@Height", SqlDbType.SmallInt));
cmdsqlcommandupdate.Parameters["@Height"].Value = short.Parse(tbheight.Text)
it showed the error

'short' does not contain a definition for 'cmdsqlcommandupdate'

why would this be?

thanks so far Smile | :)

OK ignore that post i used this

short shorttest = short.Parse(tbheight.Text);

cmdsqlcommandupdate.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@Height", SqlDbType.SmallInt));
cmdsqlcommandupdate.Parameters["@Height"].Value = shorttest;

but it is still not updating the field

The textbox where the value comes from is in a panel, the update button is in a different area , would this make a difference?

cheers

No, not in the slightest. Have you taken the params passed into the debugger and run them through the proc in your DB to see if the issue is your database code ?

Because you don't have a semicolon at the end ?

You should use TryParse, or this code will blow up if the text is not a short.

I cant see where I am missing one from the statement above

I tried:

short shorttest = short.TryParse(tbheight.Text);
but it gives the error:

No overload for method 'TryParse' takes '1' arguments

Thanks christian

I guess if you paid attention to the intellisense, or read the docs...

short shorttest;

if ( short.TryParse(tbheight.Text, out shorttest))
{
// This means the parse was successful.
}

have you checked out the documentation for short.TryParse??

If you did you'll see it returns a boolean and has a second parameter.

short shorttest = 0;<br />
if(short.TryParse(tbHeight.Text, out shorttest)<br />
{<br />
  // tbHeight contained a value that is a valid short. shorttest has that value<br />
}

OK I think the problem runs deeper, I have just tried updating another field and it hasnt worked either, the field is a nvarchar

If i hardcode values in it works, but when I get them from textbox it doesnt

The texboxes are in panels but the update button is outside the panel, would this affect it?

thanks!

No, it shouldn't. When you set breakpoints, are the right values being found ?

eyeseetee23-Apr-08 1:25

23-Apr-08 1:25

Yeah the right values are found

The weird thing is, i am using one of the textboxes to find the correct field in the database and update that row.
It finds that textbox ok, but when I try and use any other textbox it just wont update
If I hardcode it does

Shall I post some code

I tried the

short shorttest;

if ( short.TryParse(tbheight.Text, out shorttest))
{
// This means the parse was successful.
}

but this didnt work either

Basically I had textfields which were displaying data from a database, this data was selected on pageload and applied to the textboxes
I moved this code to page init and it worked

how annoying

can i write this code?
window.open('C:/webpart/a.htm')
or i should write a url instead of 'c:/webpart/a.htm'

Re: path of file

Http Authentication help...

23-Apr-08 0:42

window.open should use a URL, for reasons that I hope are obvious. Being javascript, it runs on the client, so cannot see your servers file system.

Yes, if HTTP was not the same, it would not work.

Thansk a lot!

Use a different calendar control. I'm not sure of the exact reason, but it has nothing to do with AJAX, some popups just appear behind some controls.

hello,
How do you tell your calendar to become visible? do you use PopupExteders or PopupControl from AjaxToolkit? if you don't so do it! Smile | :)

if you had used them and the problem is still there Frown | :(

so I'm not sure but check your page layer if it is absolute.
