| Hi Trevor,
|
| Welcome to ASPNET newsgroup.
| As for the Calendar Control InvalidCastException problem you mentioned, I
| think we may consider manually customizing the DataBound data for that
| TemplateField since sometimes the field dosn't contain value...... For
| example, if you define the following Template in DetailsView:
|
| ===================
| <asp:TemplateField >
| <ItemTemplate>
| <asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server"
| VisibleDate='<%# Bind("HireDate") %>'
| SelectedDate='<%# Bind("HireDate") %>' >
|
| </asp:Calendar>
| </ItemTemplate>
|
| </asp:TemplateField>
| ==================
|
| Then, we can define a helper function in page's codebehind class which do
| some customization on the original databound data. e.g:
|
| ======helper function defined in page class...=======
| protected DateTime GetHireDate(DateTime date)
| {
| //customize it here.....
|
| return date;
| }
|
|
| =======detailsview template=======
| <asp:TemplateField >
| <ItemTemplate>
| <asp:Calendar ID="Calendar1" runat="server"
| VisibleDate='<%# GetHireDate((DateTime)Eval("HireDate"))
%>'
| SelectedDate='<%#
GetHireDate((DateTime)Eval("HireDate"))
| %>' >
|
| </asp:Calendar>
| </ItemTemplate>
|
| </asp:TemplateField>
|
| =======================
|
| Hope helps. Thanks,
|

| | Hi,
| |
| | I have a calendar control in an EditItemTemplate on a DetailsView which
| | works fine, until I switch to a record in Edit mode which has no date
in
| | that field.
| |
| | Here is the error:
| |
| | System.InvalidCastException was unhandled by user code
| | Message="Specified cast is not valid."
| | Source="App_Web_cul7wear"
| | StackTrace:
| | at ASP.masterdetail_aspx.__DataBinding__control27(Object sender,
| | EventArgs e) in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\AppsWeb\MasterDetail.aspx:line 54
| | at System.Web.UI.Control.OnDataBinding(EventArgs e)
| | at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBind(Boolean raiseOnDataBinding)
| | at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBind()
| | at System.Web.UI.Control.DataBindChildren()
| |
| | How do I work around this error, is there a way to code a default in
case
| | there's no date in the field?
| |
| | Thank you.
| |
