How to create sql for retrieving 10 records per time in .NET

I want to create sql for retrieving 10 records per time but need to know the total result matches.
And I have previous and next button for retrieving previous or next 10 records.
ThanksAs a great man once said: Huh?

I'm sure that your posting made sense to you, but I don't even have a clue what you meant. Could you try to repost and fill in a few of the details that I'm missing? I'd like to help you if I could, but at the moment I don't understand enough of what you want to have a chance!

-PatP|||Hi,

as Pat said, this isn't very clear and you really should repost. I just want to comment on what you may need to consider mentioning.

Almost all databases are used by multiple users at the same time. Selecting the 10 first records in a particular order makes perfect sense, as does selecting record 11 to 20 of that same recordset. But selecting 10 and then (at a later time) selecting "the ten next" doesn't have any clear meaning since the data may well have changed in the meantime. So perhaps it's a good idea to clarify how you want your system to deal with the different change scenarios: records may have been added, removed or updated, or any mix of the three between the two queries.

One way to "page in the database":
Initialize:
- establish a single orderby column for your query (if you have several columns, combine them into one column yielding equivalent sort order)
- select the top 10 records
- persist the value of the orderby column for the last record. In ASP.NET, use ViewState for this.

Each round trip:
- use the value of the last record in the previous result set to select the next ten:
SELECT TOP 10 ... WHERE ... AND ordCol > @.lastValue ORDER BY ordCol
- persist the last value again

Of course, if you require to page the other way (previous page) you must also persist the value of the first record. Furthermore, since there's no BOTTOM keyword to mirror TOP, you must use reverse sort order (otherwise, if you did SELECT TOP 10 ... WHERE ordCol < @.firstVal, the first page would be returned even if you tried to get the previous one from, say, page 5). Since you still want to display in-order, fix this by selecting into a temp table and then select in-order from that one:

SELECT TOP 10 INTO #page ... WHERE ... AND ordCol < @.firstVal ORDER BY ordCol DESC
SELECT * FROM #page ORDER BY ordCol

I hope this helps!

Dag|||Or you could just set-up paging in a datagrid...|||Huh?

Just a guess...

You want to do paging

Make sure to say hi to Jeff for me
__________________|||I meant that you could use a .NET DataGrid control that allows you to view a recordset one page at a time. You can define how many records you want displayed on each page. Of course this deals with paging at the Application level - don't know if that's what he wants but just thought I'd mention it.

I don't have a clue about paging at the SQL Server level...:-)|||Sorry for unclear question. Yes, what i want to do is paging.

mmcdonald: Thanks for your suggestion but the user don't want the result be shown in datagrid :(

How to create Database and tables in MSDE

I have install the MSDE from Ofiice 2000 cd and my MSDE sql server is running fine that I can see from my tray bar with green arrow button. Now i want to create the database so can any body tell me how do i create database. Is there ne query analyser or enterprise manager by which I can create database. Also when i try to install starterkit it doen not allow me to install it. It ask me to select database from the dropdown list and when I select Localhost (only option available) and click on test connection it gives me error Unsuccessfull

I am new at MSDN so please help me.

Yoiu have a couple of options.
1) You can rul SQL scripts directly against MSDE using the command line interface that comes with it.
2) If you have Access 2000, XP, or 2003, youcan create a new "Access Project" and connect to your MSDE instancegraphically.
3) For ~$50 U.S, you can purchase a copy ofSQL Server 2000 Developer Edition, and connect to MSDE via EnterpriseManager.
4) You can download and install a copy of SQLServer 2000 Evaluation Edition, and use Enterprise Manager fromthat. Attempt to decipher its licensing limitations at your ownrisk.
|||Could u tell me where to find command line b'se i tried to find it but coudn't. Sorry i m new at MSDE. pls tell me how can I connect through access project. Also I am unable to install Starter kit too.
Pls help me|||The command line tool is called osql.exe. Here's an article that'll help you use it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q325003
For connecting though an Access Project, either follow the wizard, or look it up in Access help.

|||Thank you very much for your answer. I was able to find out the osql.exe utility.
I am having one problem when I try to execute the command osql -e it ask me password and when i type 'sa' as password it gives me error that the username is not associated with trusted sql server. I think when I installed the MSDE I did not give it any strong user name and password so I wil try again by giving strong [password t the time of installing it.
Once again thanx very much for your time.sql

How to create a update button to update two SqlDataSource controls?

I want to update two tables in one page. So I created two FormView bound on two SqlDataSource controls, and I create a Update button on the bottom of page. And I writen some codes as below:

btnUpate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

sqlDataSource1.Update();

sqlDateSource2.Update();
}

But, the records haven't updated.

In SqlDataSource2_Updating() function, I found all the parameters is null.

So, how to modify my code to do it.

Zhang

You need to actually set the update parameters. Take a look at this link.

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fkzs2t3h(VS.80).aspx

Sub EmployeeDetailsSqlDataSource_OnInserted(senderAsObject, eAs SqlDataSourceStatusEventArgs)
Dim commandAs System.Data.Common.DbCommand = e.Command

EmployeeDetailsSqlDataSource.SelectParameters("EmpID").DefaultValue = _
command.Parameters("@.EmpID").Value.ToString()

EmployeesGridView.DataBind()
EmployeeFormView.DataBind()
EndSub

|||

I set the parameters' DafaultValue in the Clicked Event of the Update button. And it work fine.

But it is too hard to set so much parameters by codes. Are there any ways to set them automatically as the update link button had done in the FormView?

If you want to mix HTML Forms with ReportingServices Reports, I
suggest using ASP.NET. This way:
1. the page renders on your IIS server and is callable from a URL
2. you can have an HTML form with Inputs & Submit button
3. the Submit posts back to the IIS server which returns a page with
a RS Object rendered as an IFRAME in the HTML (ReportViewer I think it
is called)
4. The IIS takes the parameters from the URL using Request objects,
then passes those as Parameters to the ReportViewer object, which then
calls the Reporting Services RDL file, which renders in the web page.
Down side is that the report cannot be deployed to the Reporting
Services Server, but can be Navigated to via a URL to the ASP.NET
folder on your web server.
