Sharepoint: How To Deal With Custom List [Add,Search]

25/08/2011 3 comments

Hi Guys, this article depends on your knowledge of what’s the concept of SharePoint List,so I already created a list called Employees under my subsite with the following columns:

FirstName

LastName

Age

Department

Salary

so the first task that we want to do is adding new list item to the Employees List,here is the Code for this target:

you will need the following namespace:

using Microsoft.SharePoint;

//to open the site 

using (SPSite site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url))
                {
                    if (site != null)
                    {

                                                       //to open the site ….. assuming that the list will be in the same subsite

                        using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ServerRelativeUrl))
                        {
                            SPList list = web.Lists["Employees"];
                            if (list != null)
                            {
 //Create New Empty List Item
                                    SPListItem itemNew = list.Items.Add();
 //Filling it's fields
                                    itemNew["FirstName"] = txtFirstName.Text;
                                    itemNew["LastName"] = txtLastName.Text;
                                    itemNew["Age"] = txtAge.Text;
                                    itemNew["Department"] = ddlDepartments.SelectedItem.Text;
                                    itemNew["Salary"] = txtSalary.Text;

 // to enable you to update the list
                                    web.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
 //Updating......
                                    itemNew.Update();
                            }
                        }

                    }
                }
the second Task we need now to search and navigate between the list items, so how in your opinions, I'll say it now
look, this search will work with CAML Queries we will Create template for every search Criteria ie. in our screen we will search 
by FirstName and LastName as ex, so look at this code:

string FirstNameTemplate = string.Format("<Contains>" +
                                         "<FieldRef Name=\"FirstName\" />" +
                                          "<Value Type=\"Text\">{0}</Value>" +
                                       "</Contains>", txtFirstName.Text);

string LastNameTemplate = string.Format("<Contains>" +
 "<FieldRef Name=\"LastName\" />" +
 "<Value Type=\"Text\">{0}</Value>" +
 "</Contains>", txtLastName.Text);

string TrueCondition = "<Neq>" +
 "<FieldRef Name=\"FirstName\" />" +
 "<Value Type=\"Text\">asamir226644</Value>" + //Dummy Data
 "</Neq>";

string FirstName = txtFirstName.Text != string.Empty ? FullNameTemplate : TrueCondition;
string LastName = txtLastName.Text != string.Empty ? LastNameTemplate : TrueCondition;

string CAMLQueryemplate = string.Format("<Where>" +
 "<And>" +
 "{0}" + //FirstName
 "{1}" + //LastName
 "</And>" +
 "</Where>", FirstName, LastName);

using (SPSite site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.Url))
                {
                    if (site != null)
                    {
                        using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ServerRelativeUrl))
                        {
                            SPList list = web.Lists["Employees"];
                            if (list != null)
                            {
                                SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
                                string str = string.Format(CAMLQueryemplate);
                                query.Query = str;
                                DataTable dataTable = list.GetItems(query).GetDataTable();
                                gvEmployees.DataSource = dataTable;
                                gvEmployees.DataBind();
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }

When we came to download a file or Export it ,we know that we write Response.End(); to end the response and save the file to our machine,but if you try any other button in the page after that you notice that it doesn’t work! unless you make Refresh to the page! so what’s the solutoin?

Solution:

javascript, js icon

<script type=”text/javascript” language=”javascript”>

function ButtonWorkAgain()

{         window.WebForm_OnSubmit = function ()         { return true; };     }

</script>

folder, html icon

<asp:GridView ID=”gvFiles” runat=”server” AutoGenerateColumns=”False” EnableModelValidation=”True”>

<Columns>

<asp:TemplateField>

<asp:LinkButton ID=”hlbtnDownLoad” runat=”server” onclick=”hlbtnDownLoad_Click”                                         OnClientClick=”ButtonWorkAgain();”></asp:LinkButton>
