How To Read XML File Using DataTable.ReadXml() In C#

Good afternoon friends! In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to read an XML file using DataTable's ReadXml() method. While reading a file using DataSet's ReadXml() method is straightforward, using the DataTable's method might cause run-time or logical bugs. One example is that when using the DataTable's ReadXml() function, the DataTable object does not contain any records or nothing at all given that fact that the method has successfully executed. To proceed, we will read an XML file below called books.xml taken from MSDN page using DataTable's ReadXml() method. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <catalog> <book id= "bk101" > <author> Gambardella, Matthew </author> <title> XML Developer's Guide </title> <genre> Computer </genre> <price> 44.95 </price> <publish_date> 2000-10-01 </publish_date> <description&g

Converting Rows To Columns With DateTime Column In SQL Server

-
Good evening! An issue was brought up by a developer on how to convert rows of DateTime values into columns using MS Access DB with functionality similar to pivoting of MSSQL.The problem has an added complexity since specific portions of the DateTime will be extracted too. See original post here: Converting Columns to Rows in MS Access . The data presented is similar to a Timesheet entry wherein an employee has login/logout records. The solution presented in the thread involves usage of subquery and joins designed for MS Access Db. I modified the accepted answer to a T-SQL query using Group By, Max() function, Coalesce() and without subquery. SELECT LogInfo.fldMachineId, Year (LogInfo.fldLogDate) as [ Year ], Month (LogInfo.fldLogDate) as [ Month ], Day (LogInfo.fldLogDate) as [ Day ], Max (Coalesce( Convert ( varchar ( 5 ), T2.fldLogDate, 108 ), '' )) as TimeIn1, Max (Coalesce( Convert ( varchar ( 5 ), T3.fldLogDate, 108 ), '' )) as TimeOut1,

Happy New Year! This post will illustrate on how to apply Bootstrap styling to a Repeater control given that the template used will be a Table element. To begin with, create an ASP.NET WebForm project. This application will retrieve Employee information from Northwinds database. Add an ADO.NET Entity Framework 6.0 to your project which will hook up with the Employee table. Add a WebForm page to your solution then drag a Repeater control inside the div tag below the form tag. Make sure to reference the bootstrap file in your head tag. The Repeater control will utilize the table element as it's template for displaying employee information. For the record, the employee photo will be shown on the left column, while the personal details are presented on the right column. The table also made use of Bootstrap's table css classes. <head runat= "server" > <title></title> <link href= "Content/bootstrap.css" rel= "stylesheet&q
