I have a .mdb file with a Customers table and an Agents table. The only thing that the Agents table does as yet is populate the Agent dropdown for each customer...
I have a DataGridView linked to the customerBindingSource. The customerBindingSource has DataMember set to Customer and DataSource set to bindingSource1. This has the DataSource set to customerAppDS21. If I select customerAppDS21 and click Edit in DataSet Designer I can quite clearly see that there is a Customer table and Agent table. These were dragged directly from the Data.mdf > Tables folder. I have been through the Configure wizard and checked that the Update, Insert and Delete commands are generated correctly.
I am setting the unique ID (GUID) when the user leaves a row or adds a row (I dont think both are needed, but I very much doubt this is the cause of the problem). The user can update or add as many rows as possible. When the user clicks the Save button it calls customerTableAdapter.Update(customerAppDS21.Customer);. All the events are definitely wired up correctly.
The problem is basically that the DataSet appears to get updated but the database itself is not updated. I can close the program and reload it straight away and the data is there. However if I make any changes to the code and then recompile and load the program all the data is gone. This is what makes me think the DataSet is being updated but not the database.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve the problem? I have tried adding the .acceptChanges(); line both before and after the .Update(bla); line, with no success. I have also tried calling customerBindingSource.EndEdit(); and bindingSource1.EndEdit(); before the .Update(bla); line.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I have had this problem for 2 days now and tried alsorts of tutorials to get a hint on where I am going wrong.
Regards,
Richard
Update: Code below...
void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Validate();
customerBindingSource.EndEdit();
customerTableAdapter.Update(customerAppDS21.Customer);
}
void grdCustomers_RowLeave(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
DataGridViewRow gvr = grdCustomers.Rows[e.RowIndex];
if (gvr.Cells[0].Value == null)
{
String g = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
gvr.Cells[0].Value = g;
}
else
{
String currID = gvr.Cells[0].Value.ToString();
if (currID.Equals(""))
{
String g = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
gvr.Cells[0].Value = g;
}
}
}
void grdCustomers_UserAddedRow(object sender, DataGridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
DataGridViewRow gvr = grdCustomers.Rows[grdCustomers.SelectedCells[0].RowIndex];
if (gvr.Cells[0].Value == null)
{
String g = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
gvr.Cells[0].Value = g;
}
else
{
String currID = gvr.Cells[0].Value.ToString();
if (currID.Equals(""))
{
String g = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
gvr.Cells[0].Value = g;
}
}
}

I guess this might be your problem. Read these two articles very carefully. The first one contains a thread where in the second link (I gave below) is suggested.
http://www.devnewsgroups.net/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet/topic58794.aspx
and
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms246989.aspx
In the first link, read the answer of: Kerry Moorman.
I guess these links might help:
