</td>
</tr>
</EditItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:DataList>
code behind:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = obj.GetSamples();
DataList1.DataSource = dt;
DataList1.DataBind();
}
}
public void DataBind()
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = obj.GetSamples();
DataList1.DataSource = dt;
DataList1.DataBind();
}
protected void DataList1_EditCommand1(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
DataList1.EditItemIndex = e.Item.ItemIndex;
DataBind();
}
protected void DataList1_CancelCommand1(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{
DataList1.EditItemIndex = -1;
DataBind();
}
protected void DataList1_UpdateCommand1(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e)
{ // Get the DataKey value associated with current Item Index.
// int AdmissionNo = Convert.ToInt32(DataList1.DataKeys[e.Item.ItemIndex]);
string AdmissionNo = DataList1.DataKeys[e.Item.ItemIndex].ToString();
// Get updated value entered by user in textbox control for
// ProductName field.
TextBox txtProductName;
txtProductName = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtProductName");
TextBox txtStudentRollNo;
txtStudentRollNo = (TextBox)e.Item.FindControl("txtStudentRollNo");
// string variable to store the connection string
// retrieved from the connectionStrings section of web.config
string connectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
// sql connection object
SqlConnection mySqlConnection = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
// sql command object initialized with update command text
SqlCommand mySqlCommand = new SqlCommand("update SchoolAdmissionForm set StudentName=@studentname ,StdentRollNo=@studentroll where AdmissionNo=@admissionno", mySqlConnection);
mySqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@studentname", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = txtProductName.Text;
mySqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@admissionno", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = AdmissionNo;
mySqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@studentroll", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = txtStudentRollNo.Text;
// check the connection state and open it accordingly.
if (mySqlConnection.State == ConnectionState.Closed)
mySqlConnection.Open();
// execute sql update query
mySqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
// check the connection state and close it accordingly.
if (mySqlConnection.State == ConnectionState.Open)
mySqlConnection.Close();
// reset the DataList mode back to its initial state
DataList1.EditItemIndex = -1;
DataBind();
// BindDataList();
}
But it works fine.... but when i click edit command both the Fields
1.StudentName
2.StudentRollNo
im getting textboxes to all the fields where i placed textbox when i click 'edit' command and not the particular field alone . but i should get oly the textbox visible to the field to which i clik as 'edit' , and the rest remain same without showing textboxes even though it is in editmode
