OK so this has really got me now. Ive been looking over this all afternoon with no luck.

CH 14 A Simple EntityDataSource Application

I am getting an error in the code behind for the Id element in myNewClient.Id.ToString())), as shown below:

Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using clientManagerTestModel;

public partial class NewClient : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }
    protected void EntityDataSource1_Inserted(object sender, EntityDataSourceChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        NewClient myNewClient = (NewClient)e.Entity;
        Response.Redirect(string.Format("ManageClient.aspx?Id={0}", myNewClient.Id.ToString()));

And the error is? And when do you get it? Please try to be as specifc as you can when you post here, or it's hard to impossible to help you.

Cheers,

Sorry!

this is the error I get:

Quote:

Error 1 'NewClient' does not contain a definition for 'Id' and no extension method 'Id' accepting a first argument of type 'NewClient' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) C:\BegASPNET\clientManagerTest\NewClient.aspx.cs 20 81 C:\BegASPNET\clientManagerTest\

I get it when I F5 the page...

Then maybe NewClient doesn't have an Id in the database? What does IntelliSense tell you?

Thanks.

There isnt a table called NewClient! It's simply Clients. I changed the coding to reflect this and this is what I have:

Code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using clientManagerTestModel;

public partial class NewClient : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }
    protected void EntityDataSource1_Inserted(object sender, EntityDataSourceChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        Client myClients = (Client)e.Entity;
        Response.Redirect(string.Format("ManageClient.aspx?Id={0}", myClients.Id.ToString()));

The page loads fine now... however, the UserId is not inserted into the table for Clients under the column UserName.

I am not getting any error other than the expected one for the next page - Manage Clients, not being available.

I don't see any code related to that, so I don't know what to recommend.

Does that mean you're not using IntelliSense to help you write this code?
