Bind DropdownList from Database in ASP.NET

The document describes how to bind dropdown lists in ASP.NET to data from a SQL database. It includes code samples in C# and VB.NET to populate dropdowns for country, state, and city by connecting to database tables and retrieving the related data on selection changes between the dropdowns. The code samples show how to populate the dropdowns from database tables on page load and how to refresh dependent dropdowns based on selection of parent dropdowns.

Show Bind Data to [Link] Dropdownlist from Database in C#, VB.

NET
Introduction: Here I will explain how to bind or show data in dropdownlist from database in [Link] using C#.net [Link]. Description: In previous posts I explained many articles relating [Link], jQuery, SQL Server, JavaScript. Now I will explain how to bind or show data in dropdownlist from database in [Link] using C#.net and [Link]. Before implement this example first design one table UserInformation in your database as shown below Column Name UserId UserName Location Data Type Int (set Identity=true) varchar(50) Varchar(50) Allow Nulls No Yes Yes

Once table designed in database write the following code in your aspx page

<html xmlns="[Link] <head runat="server"> <title>how to show data in dropdownlist from database in [Link]</title> </head> <body> <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <b>Selected UserName:</b> <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountry" runat="server" /> </div> </form> </body> </html> Now add the following namespaces in code behind C# Code

using System; using [Link]; using [Link]; using [Link]; After add namespaces write the following code in code behind

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!IsPostBack) {

BindContrydropdown(); } } /// <summary> /// Bind COuntrydropdown /// </summary> protected void BindContrydropdown() { //conenction path for database using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=SureshDasari;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB")) { [Link](); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select UserId,UserName FROM UserInformation", con); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd); DataSet ds = new DataSet(); [Link](ds); [Link] = ds; [Link] = "UserName"; [Link] = "UserId"; [Link](); [Link](0, new ListItem("--Select--", "0")); [Link](); } } [Link] Code

Imports [Link] Imports [Link] Imports [Link] Partial Class VBSample Inherits [Link] Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles [Link] If Not IsPostBack Then BindContrydropdown() End If End Sub ''' <summary> ''' Bind COuntrydropdown ''' </summary> Protected Sub BindContrydropdown() 'conenction path for database Using con As New SqlConnection("Data Source=SureshDasari;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=MySampleDB") [Link]() Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("Select UserId,UserName FROM UserInformation", con) Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd) Dim ds As New DataSet() [Link](ds) [Link] = ds [Link] = "UserName" [Link] = "UserId" [Link]() [Link](0, New ListItem("--Select--", "0")) [Link]() End Using End Sub End Class Demo

How to Fill Country,State,Cities in the DropDownList in [Link] C#,[Link]

Introduction: In this article i am going to explain the following:

How to Bind /Load /Fill Countries, States and Cities in the DropDownList fromSql
Server Database in [Link] using C# and [Link] language How to Fill another DropDownList based on DropDownList item selection e.g. here in this example On the basis of selected Country corresponding States will be filled in the State DropDownList and on the basis of selected state corresponding cities will be filled in City DropDownList. Cascade DropDownList example to fill city,state and country. In previous articles i explained How to Get city, state and country based on zip code using Google map API in [Link] and How to fill dropdownlist with days, month and year in [Link](C#, VB) and Fill CheckBoxList based on DropDownList selection and Example to Validate DropDownList using jQuery in [Link].

Let's create the application to understand. First create a Database in Sql Server and name it "Emp_DB" or whatever you want. Now we need to create table for County, State and City. Insert

some data in all the tables as shown below.

Create the table and name it Tbl_Country

Column Name Country_Id_Pk Country_Name

Data type int varchar(10 0)

Set is identity=yes

Tbl_Country table data

Country_Id_P k 1 2

Country_Na me India Australia

Create the table and name it Tbl_ State

Column Name State_Id_pk State_Name

Data type int Set is identity=yes

varchar(10 0) country_Id_Fk int

Tbl_State table data

State_Id_p k 1 2 3 4

State_Name Haryana Punjab Himachal Pradesh Queensland

country_Id_ Fk 1 1 1 2

Create the table and name it Tbl_City

Column Name City_Id_Pk

Data type int Set is identity=yes

City_Name varchar(10

State_Id_Fk

0) int

Tbl_City table data

City_Id_P City_Nam k e 1 Panchkula 2 Kalka 3 Ambala 4 Moga 5 Bathinda 6 Shimla 7 kasauli 8 Brisbane 9 Townsville

State_Id_ Fk 1 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4

In the [Link] file create the connection string in <connectionString> element as: <connectionStrings> <add name="conStr" connectionString="Data Source=LocalServer;Initial Catalog=Emp_DB;Integrated Security=True"/> </connectionStrings> Note: Replace the Data Source and Initial Catalog(i.e. Database name) as per your application. In the design page(.aspx) Place 3 DropDownList controls from the visual studios toolbar and design the form as:

<fieldset style="width:340px;"> <legend>Fill City,State and Country DropDownList in [Link]</legend> <table> <tr> <td width="40%">Select Country:</td> <td><asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCountry" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" onselectedindexchanged="ddlCountry_SelectedIndexChanged" Width="187px"></asp :DropDownList></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Select State:</td>

Create registration form and send confirmation email to new registered users in [Link] | Activate or approve user account by activation link in email address.
Introduction: In this article I am going to explain with example How to create registration form and approve newly registered user by sending them account activation link on their email address in [Link] with both C#.Net and [Link] languages.

Description: The concept is simple as mentioned below. First user will fill the form having Name, Email Id, Address and

Contact Number field. This information will be stored in the Sql server database table where a field Is_Approved is set to 0 i.e. false by default. Also email id, and the user id based on email id is set in the query string parameters and sent to the email address of the newly registered user as an activation link. When user check his email and click on the activation link then he will be redirected to the "[Link]" page where User id and email Id from the query string will be verified and the Is_Approved field in the sql server table is set to 1 i.e. True. Now he is an approved user and authorized to log in. Implementation: lets create an [Link] web application to understand the concept. First of all create a database e.g. MyDataBase in Sql server and create a table with the column and the data type as shown and name it Tb_Registration Note: I have set the data type of the Is_Approved field to bit and set its default value to 0 i.e. false. It means whenever a new record is inserted in the table the Is_Approved will be 0. So the new users need to get their account approved by clicking on the activation link in their email address. In the [Link] file create the connection string to connect your [Link] application to the Sql server database as: <connectionStrings> <add name="conStr" connectionString="Data Source=lalit;Initial Catalog=MyDataBase;Integrated Security=True"/> </connectionStrings> Note: Replace the Data Source and Initial Catalog(i.e. DataBase Name) as per your application. Source Code: Add a page and name it [Link] and design the page as: <div> <fieldset style="width:350px;"> <legend>Registeration page</legend> <table> <tr> <td>Name *: </td><td>

<asp:TextBox ID="txtName" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br /><asp:RequiredFieldV alidator ID="rfvName" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Please enter Name" ControlToValidate="txtName" Display="Dynamic" ForeColor="#FF3300" SetFocusOnError="True"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Email Id: * </td><td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtEmailId" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvEmailId" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtEmailId" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Please enter Email Id" ForeColor="Red" SetFocusOnError="True"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> <asp:RegularExpressionValidator ID="rgeEmailId" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtEmailId" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Please enter valid email id format" ForeColor="Red" SetFocusOnError="True" ValidationExpression="\w+([-+.']\w+)*@\w+([-.]\w+)*\.\w+ ([-.]\w+)*"></asp:RegularExpressionValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Address : </td><td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtAddress" runat="server"></asp:TextBox></td> </tr> <tr> <td>Contact No.</td><td>

This page will be opened when

Stay tuned and stay connected for more technical updates." 2 of 2 Introduction: In this article i am going to explain How to implement remember me next

time checkbox option along with username and password in the Log in form in [Link] using both C# and [Link] language. Username and password will be stored in the cookie . Description: The benefits of implementing remember me option is that user needs not to enter the username and password each time to log in, if he wish. This option will maintain the credentials i.e. username and password for the user when he visit the website next time.

In previous related article i explained How to create Login page/form and check username,password in [Link] using sql server database and Create registration form and send confirmation email to activate account to new registered users and Create Change password form/page in [Link] using Sql server and Encrypt and decrypt username,password and store in Sql Server database and Create contact us form and Recover and reset the forgot password using activation link in email id and Check login in [Link] by passing parameter to stored procedure in sql server . The process is as follows: When user enter username and password and press the login button, the code will first verify the credentials from the Sql server database. If verified then it will further check whether the "remember me next time" checkbox is checked or not. If checked then the username and password will be stored in the cookie for 30 days otherwise it will destroy the cookie by setting the cookie's expiration date to past date. E.g. one day in the past. On page load event we check for the existence of cookie. If exists, username and password will be fetched from the cookie and filled in corresponding TextBox. Implementation: Let's create a sample website to understand the concept. In the <form> tag of the design page (.aspx) place two TextBox controls, a CheckBox and a Button control.

Source Code: <div>

<fieldset style="width:320px;"> <legend>Login with remember me option in [Link]</legend> <table> <tr> <td>UserName : *</td><td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtUserName" placeholder="User Name" Width="180px" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvUserName" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtUserName" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Please enter User Name" ForeColor="Red" SetFocusOnError="True"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Password : *</td><td> <asp:TextBox ID="txtPwd" placeholder="Password" TextMode="Password" Width="18 0px" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br /> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="rfvPwd" runat="server" ControlToValidate="txtPwd" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="Please enter Password" ForeColor="Red" SetFocusOnError="True"></asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td>

</tr> <tr> <td></td><td> <asp:Button ID="btnLogin" runat="server" Text="Login" onclick="btnLogin_Click" /> <asp:CheckBox ID="chkRemember" Text="Remember me next time" runat="server" /> </td> </tr> </table> </fieldset> </div> Note: I have also validated the username and password using RequiredFieldValidator validation control so that they can't be left blank. Create a database in Sql server e.g. "MyDataBase" and in this database create a table with the columns and data type as shown below and name it "Tb_Login".

Column Id UserName Password

Data Type Int (Primary Key. So set Is Identity=True varchar(100) varchar(100)

Also create a Stored procedure to authenticate the login attempt.

CREATE PROCEDURE CheckLogin_sp @UserName varchar(100), @Pwd AS BEGIN SELECT UserName,[Password] from Tb_Login where UserName COLLATE Latin1_general_CS_AS=@UserName and [Password] COLLATE Latin1_general_CS_AS=@Pwd END Note: In this stored procedure i have also used the COLLATE Latin1_general_CS_AS to check for the exact username and password match because it is used to make the Sql queries case sensitive. e.g. if the username is admin and password is demo then if user enters Admin in username or Demo in password field then it will not match and it the log in attempt will get failed. In the [Link] file create the connection string to connect the [Link] website with the Sql server database as: varchar(100)

<connectionStrings> <add name="conStr" connectionString="Data Source=lalit;Initial Catalog=MyDataBase;Integrated Security=True"/> </connectionStrings> Note: Replace the Data Source and Initial catalog (i.e. Database name) as per your application.

C#.Net Code to implement remember me checkbox option in login form In the code behind file (.[Link]) write the code as:.

First include the following required namespaces and write the code as: using [Link]; using [Link]; using [Link]; protected void btnLogin_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { SqlConnection con=new SqlConnection([Link]["conS tr"].ConnectionString); SqlDataAdapter adp = new SqlDataAdapter(); try { adp = new SqlDataAdapter("CheckLogin_sp", con); [Link]("@UserName", [Link]()); [Link]("@Pwd", [Link]()); [Link] = [Link]; if ([Link] == [Link]) {

Description: Basically you will learn the following through this article. How to bind GridView from Sql server database table. How to delete items/records/rows from grid view. How to show Checkbox with each row/record in GridView How to delete multiple records from GridView by selecting multiple items using CheckBox in grid view. How to implement the Confirmation before Deleting gridview records How to implement Paging in GridView In previous article i explained How to Bind,Save,Edit,Update,Cancel,Delete,Paging

example in GridView and WCF Service to bind,insert,edit,update,delete from sql server database in [Link] and Send email to multiple users based on CheckBox selection inside GridView andGet CheckBoxList selected items in comma separated format andBind,upload,download,delete image files from the GridView and Display Serial/Row Number automatically in GridView Implementation: Lets create a sample web application to understand the concept practically.

Source Code:
In the design page (.aspx) place GridView control and set it as: <div> <fieldset style="width:415px;"> <legend>Bind,Delete,Multiple delete example in gridview</legend> <asp:GridView ID="grdEmp" runat="server" AllowSorting="True" ShowFooter="tr ue" DataKeyNames="Emp_Id" CssClass="rowHover" RowStyle-CssClass="rowHov er" AutoGenerateColumns="False" EmptyDataText="No records found" AllowPaging="True" onrowdeleting="grdEmp_RowDeleting" onpageindexchanging="grdEmp_PageIndexChanging" PageSize="10" CellPadding="4" ForeColor="#333333" GridLines="None"> <AlternatingRowStyle BackColor="White" ForeColor="#284775" /> <Columns> <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Emp Name" DataField="EmpName" /> <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Age" DataField="Age" /> <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Salary" DataField="Salary" /> <asp:BoundField HeaderText="Address" DataField="Address" /> <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Delete" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center "ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"> <ItemTemplate> <asp:ImageButton ID="imgDelete" runat="server" CommandName="Delet

e" ImageUrl="~/Images/[Link]" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete selected record ?')" ToolTip="Delete"/> </ItemTemplate> <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" /> <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" /> </asp:TemplateField> <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Multiple Delete" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"> <ItemTemplate> <asp:CheckBox ID="chkDel" runat="server" /> </ItemTemplate> <FooterTemplate> <asp:Button ID="btnDelete" runat="server" Text="Multiple Delete" OnClientClick="return confirm('Are you sure you want to delete selected records?')" onclick="btnDelete_Click" /> </FooterTemplate> <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" /> <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" /> </asp:TemplateField> </Columns> <EditRowStyle BackColor="#999999" /> <FooterStyle BackColor="#ffffff" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" /> <HeaderStyle BackColor="#5D7B9D" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" /> <PagerStyle BackColor="#284775" ForeColor="White" HorizontalAlign="Cent er" /> <RowStyle CssClass="rowHover" BackColor="#F7F6F3" ForeColor="#333333"></R owStyle> <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#E2DED6" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="#33 3333"/> <SortedAscendingCellStyle BackColor="#E9E7E2" /> <SortedAscendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#506C8C" /> <SortedDescendingCellStyle BackColor="#FFFDF8" /> <SortedDescendingHeaderStyle BackColor="#6F8DAE" /> <EmptyDataRowStyle Width = "410px" ForeColor="Red" Font-Bold="true"

HorizontalAlign = "Center"/> </asp:GridView> </fieldset> </div> Note: Create a folder in the root directory and name it Images and place the delete image icon in this folder. You can search on google for the term delete png icons.

Now Create a Database in Sql server e.g. Emp_DB and create a Table with the columns and the Data type as shown below and name it Emp_Tb.

Column Name Emp_Id

Data Type

Int( Primary Key. So set Is Identity=True) EmpName varchar(100) Age int Salary int Address varchar(500)
Create a stored procedure to fetch the employee records and bind gridview CREATE PROCEDURE BindEmpGrid_Sp AS BEGIN SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb END Create a stored procedure to delete the employee records CREATE PROCEDURE DeleteEmpRecord_Sp @EmpId INT AS BEGIN DELETE FROM Emp_Tb WHERE Emp_Id=@EmpId END

In the [Link] fig file create the connection string to connect the [Link] web application with the Sql server database. <connectionStrings>

<add name="con" connectionString="Data Source=Lalit;Initial Catalog=Emp_DB;Integrated Security=True"/> </connectionStrings> Note: Replace the Data Source and Initial catalog (i.e. Database Name) as per your application.

How to bind and implement search gridview records in [Link] | Use of If Else If in Sql server
Introduction: In this article I am going to explain with example How to Bind

GridView from Sql server database table and implement search /filter functionality in the grid view in [Link] using both C#.Net and [Link] languages.

Click on the image to view enlarged demo

Description: You will learn the following through this article: How to Bind gridview from sql server database table using stored procedure How to implement the search/filter feature in grid view to search the records based on selected criteria. In this example i have implemented the functionality to filter the records by Emp Name, Salary and City. How to use nested If Else If in stored procedure in Sql server How to use CASE in stored procedure in Sql server In previous articles i explained How to Bind,Save,Edit,Update,Cancel,Delete,Paging example in GridView and WCF Service to bind,insert,edit,update,delete from sql server database in [Link] and Delete multiple selected records/items based on CheckBox in GridView and Bind,upload,download,delete image files from the GridView and Display Serial/Row Number automatically in GridView and Highlight gridview row on mouse over using CSS in [Link] and Bind empty GridView with header and custom message Implementation: Lets create sample [Link] website to see it in action. First of all create a Database in Sql server e.g. Emp_DB and in this database create a table with the columns and data type as shown below:

Column Name Emp_Id

Data Type

Int(Primary Key. So set Is Identity=True) EmpName varchar(100) Age int

Salary City Address

int varchar(100) varchar(500)

Now create a Stored Procedure to get/fetch the employee records based on search criteria. Note: In have mentioned two stored procedure for the same purpose. You can use any of the two. The first one which is simple, demonstrates the use of IF.. ELSE IF..ELSE (Nested Else if) to execute different queries based on conditions and the second one demonstrates the use of Case statement for the same purpose. CREATE PROCEDURE SearchEmpRecords_Sp @SearchBy @SearchVal AS BEGIN IF @SearchBy = 'Emp Name' BEGIN SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE EmpName like @SearchVal + '%' END ELSE IF @SearchBy = 'City' BEGIN SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE City like @SearchVal + '%' END ELSE IF @SearchBy = 'Salary' BEGIN SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE Salary = @SearchVal END ELSE BEGIN SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb END END ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------CREATE PROCEDURE SearchEmpRecords_Sp @SearchBy varchar(50), varchar(50), varchar(50)

@SearchVal AS BEGIN

varchar(50)

DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(1000) SELECT @sql=CASE @SearchBy WHEN 'Emp Name' THEN 'SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE EmpName LIKE '''+ @SearchVal+'%''' WHEN 'City' '''+ @SearchVal +'%''' WHEN 'Salary' THEN 'SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE Salary = ' + @SearchVal + '' ELSE '(SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb)' END END EXECUTE sp_executesql @sql THEN 'SELECT * FROM Emp_Tb WHERE City LIKE

In the [Link] file create the connection string to connect the [Link] web application with the Sql server database as: <connectionStrings> <add name="con" connectionString="Data Source=Lalit;Initial Catalog=Emp_DB;Integrated Security=True"/> </connectionStrings> Note: Replace the Data source and Ini tial Catalog (i.e. Database Name) as per your application.

Source Code:
In the design page(.aspx) design the page as: <div> <fieldset style="width:415px;"> <legend>Bind and Search records example in gridview</legend> <table>
