Need Help accessing Class Properties in a Windows form

Background
excuse my ignorance i'm getting into CSharp development, have knowledge of vb.


Scenario

I have a class module SFactory.cs where I retrieve data from the database into a script collection using sql adapter and filling it in dataset and returnign back as a script collection.



I have 2 values returned from the stored procedure which are stored as Script.Property1 and Script.Property2 (same for each row from stored proc.)





Situation
I need to access these 2 values in 2 textboxes in my windows form



My windows form code looks like this –



ScriptCollection scripts = SFactory.RetrieveScripts(input1, input2, input3);

this.mygrid.DataSource = scripts;


need to add something like as shown below, but i do not see my properties if i can atleast access one row of scripts collection or of the grid and retrieve would help me.

this.mytext1.text = Convert.ToString(scripts.Property1)

this.mytext2.text = Convert.ToString(scripts.Property2)

or

this.mytext1.text = Convert.ToString(grid.row.1.column(8).text)
this.mytext2.text = Convert.ToString(grid.row.1.column(9).text)

any help is sincerely appreciated.


Thanks.

I don't know if this will help:

Thanks Jennifer..

i had actually looked at it before posting, but what i want is the reverse of it.

i'll appreciate all your help.

Thanks.

You've told us that a Script object has properties named Property1 and Property2. You've also told us that the scripts variable refers to a ScriptCollection object, which is presumably a collection of Script objects. ALWAYS relate OOP to the real world. If you had an egg carton full of eggs, would you be able to get the yolk, the white and the shell of the carton? Of course not. You'd have to first get an egg from the carton and get ITS yolk, white and shell. You cannot get properties of a Script object from a ScriptCollection object because they are two completely different things. You must first get a Script object from the ScriptCollection, THEN get ITS properties.

In the above context, can you suggest the actual code syntax

How would you normally get a Script object from a ScriptCollection?

Thanks..

i tried this and it worked

In Collection file -
-----------------
public int ScriptCountOfPages()
{
int iScriptCountOfPages = 0;
foreach (Script script in this)
{
iScriptCountOfPages = script.TotalPageCount;
break;
}
return iScriptCountOfPages;
}

public int ScriptCountOfItems()
{
int iScriptCountOfItems = 0;
foreach (Script script in this)
{
iScriptCountOfItems = script.TotalItemCount;
break;
}
return iScriptCountOfItems;
}


In Win Form-
-------------
this.txtPageCount.Text = Convert.ToString(scripts.ScriptCountOfPages());
this.txtItemCount.Text = Convert.ToString(scripts.ScriptCountOfItems());

need to test... but looks like it worked !!!

Thanks for everyone who replied.

Those properties look a bit dodgy. They look like you're just getting the page and item count from the first Script object. Surely you want to sum the page and item count for all Script objects in the collection.

Code:

---

public int ScriptCountOfPages()
{
    int iScriptCountOfPages = 0;

    foreach (Script script in this)
    {
        iScriptCountOfPages += script.TotalPageCount;
    }

    return iScriptCountOfPages;
}

public int ScriptCountOfItems()
{
    int iScriptCountOfItems = 0;

    foreach (Script script in this)
    {
        iScriptCountOfItems += script.TotalItemCount;
    }

    return iScriptCountOfItems;
}

That's a nice way of describing OOP, --> the carton of eggs.
