    SQLDataSource?

    Reply Quote
    Has anyone figured out how to bind the editor to a SqlDataSource object?  The only way I've figured out how to do this (thus far) is to bind to a Literal control and then set the editor's text to what's in the Literal.  Rather goofy, but it works.  I think it's causing some performance issues however, and would much rather bind directly to the editor control.

    I must be the only person here that needs / want to use a SqlDataSource object to supply content to the Editor? Hmmm.  That's funny.

    Mark,
     
    Can you create a simple example which can demonstrate the problem and send it to me?

    Thanks to the guys over at 4guysfromrolla.com, I finally found some help with this question.  In case other's are wondering how to do this in ASP.NET 2.0 as well... here's a possible solution.

    Protected     Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        If Not Page.IsPostBack Then
            Try
            'Programmatically access the SqlDataSource - get back a DataView
            Dim dv As DataView = CType(Me.SqlDataSourceContent.Select(DataSourceSelectArguments.Empty), DataView)
            Dim strContentTest As String
            Dim dr As DataRow
            If dv.Table.Rows.Count > 0 Then
                   dr = dv.Table.Rows(0)
                strContentTest = dr(    "Your_Field_Name_Here").ToString()
                Me.Editor1.Text = strContentTest
            End If
     
         Catch ex As Exception
            Response.Write(ex.ToString)
         End Try
        End If
    End Sub
