ASP.Net C# Code to Create Dynamic Tables

asp.net No Comments »

To generate the table you can use the following C# code:

// create a string type variable to generate dynamic table

string dynTable="";

// start with table tag with following attributes

dynTable = "<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"2\" border=\"1\">";

// outer loop to generate table rows
for (int tRows = 0; tRows < 5; tRows++)

{

//start table row

dynTable += "<tr>";

// inner loop to generate columns
for (int tCols = 0; tCols < 4; tCols++)

{

// create column
dynTable += "<td>"; dynTable += "Row: " + (tRows+1) + " Col: " + (tCols+1) ;

// close td column tag
dynTable += "</td>";

}

// close table row

dynTable += "</tr>";

}

// close the table tag

dynTable += "</table>";

Literal1.Text = dynTable;

Above C# code will build a string having table tag, tr as table row, td as table data/column. To display the data retrieved from database you can set the tRows < [No. of DataRows Retrieved] and tCols < [No. of DataColmns].

Output Result of above code:

Row: 1 Col: 1	Row: 1 Col: 2	Row: 1 Col: 3	Row: 1 Col: 4
Row: 2 Col: 1	Row: 2 Col: 2	Row: 2 Col: 3	Row: 2 Col: 4
Row: 3 Col: 1	Row: 3 Col: 2	Row: 3 Col: 3	Row: 3 Col: 4
Row: 4 Col: 1	Row: 4 Col: 2	Row: 4 Col: 3	Row: 4 Col: 4
Row: 5 Col: 1	Row: 5 Col: 2	Row: 5 Col: 3	Row: 5 Col: 4

How to sort a DataTable before passing on to DataGrid

Uncategorized No Comments »

If you are displaying a DataTable with a DataGrid and would like to have it sorted

 by a column, here is the two line solution (copy it to a DataView, sort the
DataView, and then define the DataSource of the DataGrid as the DATAVIEW, not the
 DataGrid.
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<script runat="server">

   public void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs E) {

       dgMembers.DataSource = dv;
       dgMembers.DataBind();
   }

   private DataTable GetDataTable() {
       //create table
       DataTable dt = new DataTable("Members");
       dt.Columns.Add("ID",Type.GetType("System.Int32"));
       dt.Columns.Add("LastName",Type.GetType("System.String"));
       dt.Columns.Add("Lectures",Type.GetType("System.Int32"));

       //create fields
       DataColumn[] pk = new DataColumn[1];
       pk[0] = dt.Columns["ID"];
       dt.PrimaryKey = pk;
       dt.Columns["ID"].AutoIncrement = true;
       dt.Columns["ID"].AutoIncrementSeed = 1;
       dt.Columns["ID"].ReadOnly = true;

       //fill rows
       DataRow dr;
       for(int x=1;x<=10;x++) {
           //make every other one different
