SqlDataAdapter question!

I need to use the SqlDataAdapter class in my code. I am sure I am missing some declaration but can't seem to figure out which one that will allow me to use the SqlDataAdapter. Right now it doesn't recognize the SqlDataAdapter. Can anyone please tell me what I am missing? Here are the declarations I have tried.

<%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="AddNewPatient.aspx.vb" Inherits="MedSystem.WebForm1"%>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter" %>

Thanks,

VB Code:

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Thanks for the reply!

Unless I am supposed to put it in a different spot. I am already importing that namespace at the top of the HTML that creates the page.

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>

I now have vb behind that form that I want to use to populate my drop down box with and it still won't let me use the SqlDataAdapter stuff.


Here is my code write now. I get no errors but it won't poplulate the box.

Code:

---

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        'Put user code to initialize the page here
        Dim DbConnect As SqlClient.SqlConnection
        Dim strSelect As String
        Dim cmdSelect As SqlClient.SqlCommand
        Dim SuffixReader As SqlClient.SqlDataReader
        Dim ds As New DataSet()

        DbConnect = New SqlClient.SqlConnection("server=localhost;UID=sa;Database=medsystem1")
        strSelect = "SELECT SuffixName FROM Suffix"
        cmdSelect = New SqlClient.SqlCommand(strSelect, DbConnect)
        DbConnect.Open()
        SuffixReader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader
        While SuffixReader.Read()
            cb_Suffix.DataMember = SuffixReader(0)
            cb_Suffix.DataSource() = SuffixReader(0)
            cb_Suffix.DataTextField = SuffixReader(0)
            cb_Suffix.DataValueField = SuffixReader(0)
        End While
        SuffixReader.Close()
        DbConnect.Close()
    End Sub

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

the SQLDataAdapter isn't a namespace, it's an object in the SqlClient namespace.

Take this line out:

Code:

---

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter" %>

Try to use SqlCommandBuilder .

Thanks for the reply. I got it now.

I don't know why but I originally only had the line:

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>

I added the one with the SqlDataAdapter after this line wasn't giving it to me to see if that would work. Now that I took the line out you told me I didn't need it shows up. No clue what I did differently.

I do have one question from the previous post. For someone who is fairly new to using vb code behind a web page. Is there some easy way to know what declarations I need? Or is there an easy way to tell or look up if something is an object of a class or a class that needs declaring?

Thanks for the info.
