Pass Parameter to Subroutine in Codebehind
- by Sanjubaba
I'm trying to pass an ID of an activity (RefNum) to a Sub in my codebehind. I know I'm supposed to use parentheses when passing parameters to subroutines and methods, and I've tried a number of ways and keep receiving the following error:
BC30203: Identifier expected.
I'm hard-coding it on the front-end just to try to get it to pass [ OnDataBound="FillSectorCBList("""WK.002""")" ], but it's obviously wrong. :(
Front-end:
<asp:DetailsView ID="dvEditActivity" AutoGenerateRows="False" DataKeyNames="RefNum" OnDataBound="dvSectorID_DataBound" OnItemUpdated="dvEditActivity_ItemUpdated" DataSourceID="dsEditActivity" >
<Fields>
<asp:TemplateField>
<ItemTemplate>
<br /><span style="color:#0e85c1;font-weight:bold">Sector</span><br /><br />
<asp:CheckBoxList ID="cblistSector" runat="server" DataSourceID="dsGetSectorNames" DataTextField="SectorName" DataValueField="SectorID" OnDataBound="FillSectorCBList("""WK.002""")" ></asp:CheckBoxList>
<%-- Datasource to populate cblistSector --%>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="dsGetSectorNames" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:dbConn %>" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:dbConn.ProviderName %>" SelectCommand="SELECT SectorID, SectorName from Sector ORDER BY SectorID"></asp:SqlDataSource>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Fields>
</asp:DetailsView>
Code-behind:
Sub FillSectorCBList(ByVal RefNum As String, ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Dim SectorIDs As New ListItem
Dim myConnection As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("dbConn").ConnectionString()
Dim objConn As New SqlConnection(myConnection)
Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT DISTINCT A.RefNum, AS1.SectorID, S.SectorName FROM Activity A LEFT OUTER JOIN Activity_Sector AS1 ON AS1.RefNum = A.RefNum LEFT OUTER JOIN Sector S ON AS1.SectorID = S.SectorID WHERE A.RefNum = @RefNum ORDER BY A.RefNum"
Dim objCommand As New SqlCommand(strSQL, objConn)
objCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("RefNum", RefNum)
Dim ad As New SqlDataAdapter(objCommand)
Try
[Code]
Finally
[Code]
End Try
objCommand.Connection.Close()
objCommand.Dispose()
objConn.Close()
End Sub
Any advice would be great. I'm not sure if I even have the right approach.
Thank you!
