I've a datatable, with column A, B, C. I've set column A's "is identity" property to true, but I can't add any row to the table now.
The code I'm trying is this:
dsA.dtA row = dsA.dtA.NewdtARow();
row.B = 1;
row.C = 2;
dsA.dtA.Rows.Add(row);
I'm getting NoNullAllowedException, but I don't understand why. Column A is PK as well. If I tried to set row.A = 5 (or any similiar) I'll get an error when I try to update the datatable saying "cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table when identity_insert is set to off"
How can I solve this issue? It's frustrating.
try this.
DataColumn column = new DataColumn();
column.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Int32");
column.AutoIncrement = true;
column.AutoIncrementSeed = 1;
column.AutoIncrementStep = 1;
// Add the column to a new DataTable.
DataTable table = new DataTable("table");
table.Columns.Add(column);
DataRow oRow = table.NewRow();
table.Rows.Add(oRow);
Open the designer of the dataset xsd file and set the AutoIncrement, AutoIncrementSeed and AutoIncrementStep property of the column A in datatable for an existing column.
Try one of the these two:
Set field values:
row.A = null;
row.B = 1;
row.C = 3;
Add row to DataTable
:
dtA.Rows.Add(null,1,2);
They are both the same just try any of them and it should get you going. Also remember that whenever you want to make a column auto-increment in DataTable
then you have to insert null into it.
