John Papa

MSDN Magazine January 2002

I have two (parent-child) tables that are bound by a primary key (PK)/foreign key (FK) relation.each PK is identity (idStudent and idBac)

to insert data, i'm using an little application in c# i programmed myself where i insert these columns for the Student table: F_Name, L_Name, Age, Mobile, Adresse, City ,and  ( i don't know how to handle the idBac wich is foreign key of the other table wich still not inserted yet)

for the table Bac, i insert section, school, and city.

what i want is when i click on "OK" button, the idBac ,wich is a foreign key of the other table (BAC), receives the same idBac given the moment i inserted the BAC informations too ...

i don't have any problem wich ado.net ...i just want the right query/procedure.

thanks in advance and sorry for my english, it's not my mother tongue.

Hi All,

I am at my wits end and need some help, I have a dynamic data site, and have built a formview for my parent table, Claims (parent), Claims has a child table called DamagedVehicles, I want all the fields on the Cliams table and the fields on the DamagedVehicle to be displayed for insert on the same formsview, when the user fills in all data it should insert the claim and the damagedvehicle at the same time and set the foriegn key on the Damagedvehciles row to the Primary key of the claim, I dont know were to start any examples in VB.net or C# will be greatly appricated. i have been search for 3 days now trying to come to a solution and nothing has worked.

LINQ's ability to project randomly shaped data into anonymous types can be a blessing and a source of frustration, says Julie Lerman. It's great when you just need to grab a special view of your data, but it can be problematic in certain circumstances. She explains what the limitations are and how to get around them.

Did you know that by precompiling LINQ queries you might actually be degrading your app's performance if you're not careful? Julie Lerman explains how to ensure you're not re-precompiling queries each time and losing the expected performance benefits across post-backs, short-lived service operations and other code where critical instances are going out of scope.
