SetItemDateTime

Description

Sets the value of a row and column in a DataWindow control to the specified value.

NoteSetItemDateTimeByColNum A separate method name is provided as an alternative syntax for the Web DataWindow server component, which cannot use overloaded methods.

Applies to

DataWindow type

Method applies to

Web

Server component (see SetItem for equivalent client control method)

Syntax

Web DataWindow server component

short dwcontrol.SetItemDateTime ( long row, string column, 
	string value )
short dwcontrol.SetItemDateTimeByColNum ( long row, short column,
	string value )

Argument

Description

dwcontrol

The name of the Web DataWindow control in which you want to set a specific row and column to a value.

row

The row location of the data.

column

The column location of the data. Column can be a column number or a column name.

value

The value to which you want to set the data at the row and column location.

Usage

Although JavaScript does not distinguish between the Date, DateTime, and Time datatypes, the DataStore will give an error if the wrong type is passed. You can use the SetItemDate and SetItemTime methods to set values in columns with the Date and Time datatypes.

Because the Web DataWindow server component does not support overloading, you must use the SetItemDateTimeByColNum variant instead of the standard SetItemDateTime method when you want to refer to the column by number.
