Question

I am dealing with the following problem:
I use a MSSQL Stored Procedure for displaying my data in a DataGridView. The Update and Insert Commands work, but there is one problem:

On inserting a new Row, the auto-numbered primary key isn’t send back to my DataAdaptar. So the insertion is successfull in the database, but the PK is left blank in the DataGridView.
I allready tried some codes like:

    private void _rowUpdated(object sender, SqlRowUpdatedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Status == UpdateStatus.Continue && e.StatementType == StatementType.Insert)
        {
            cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
            cmd.CommandText = "SELECT @@IDENTITY FROM " + e.Row.Table.TableName;

            DataRow r = dt.Rows[dt.Rows.Count - 1];
            r.ItemArray[0] = cmd.ExecuteScalar();
            //r.SetModified(); --> err?
            r.AcceptChanges();
        }
    }

on the DataAdapter, but nothing seems to work. All the SQL commands work fine.

When I refresh the data in the DataGridView, everyting is perfect. But the problem with this is, that the sort order and column width are adjusted. And that isn’t what I want.

Can someone help me with this problem?

Looking forward for the solutions!

Thanks!

Finally found the answer and wanted to share it:

dt.RowChanged += new DataRowChangeEventHandler(_update_fields);


    private void _update_fields(object sender, DataRowChangeEventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            if (e.Action == DataRowAction.Add)
            {
                conn.Open();
                cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
                cmd.CommandText = "SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('" + e.Row.Table.TableName + "')";
                dt.Rows[dt.Rows.Count - 1][0] = int.Parse(cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString()) + 1;
                dt.AcceptChanges();
                conn.Close();
            }
            adapt.Update(dt);
        }
        catch (SqlException ex)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(ex.Message);
        }
    }

Hope it will save you some time! 🙂
