Gridview not updating the database

G

Guest

I setup a simple gridview as a utility just to do some updates, nothing fancy
just wanted easy UI to make updates. When I select ‘Edit’, I get the fields
I want to edit. I edit them and click ‘Update’, the page returns to its
original state (prior to clicking Edit) and no updates occur in the DB. What
am I missing? I included the html code below.

It looks like you are not setting DataKeyNames property for the GridView.
This property represents the primary key (or comma separated if composite PK)
for the table bound to the grid and GridView needs this info for automatic
update or delete.

Also from MSDN: "You must set the DataKeyNames property for the automatic
updating and deleting features of the GridView control to work. The values of
these key fields are passed to the data source control in order to match the
row to update or delete."

am I missing? I included the html code below.

Hi Barbara,

As Siva pointed out, you need to set GridView.DataKeyNames to the PK of the
database table, in your case, which is the "Mapping_UID":

<asp:GridView DataKeyNames="Mapping_UID" ...


Please try this and let us know the result. Thanks.


Reference:

#GridView.DataKeyNames Property (System.Web.UI.WebControls)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.gridview.
datakeynames.aspx
You must set the DataKeyNames property for the automatic updating and
deleting features of the GridView control to work. The values of these key
fields are passed to the data source control in order to match the row to
update or delete.

I set the datakeynames value and I then got another error regarding my update
statement. I modified to just update the editable fields and all worked
fine. This is my first exposure to the new gridview in asp.net 2.0,
previously worked with the datagrid in 1.1. I don't usually depend on auto
generated items in .net, there is usually something I need to add or change.
This was just supposed to be a quick little page I setup for myself to make
another task easier.

Thanks for the quick responses.
