Retrieve extra data supplied to DataAdapter

[StanLoganParticipant]

Hi,

I apologize if this should have been posted in the DataAdapter forum.

We have a grid set up with a small number of columns. We use a DataAdapter. When we get our data from the server, there is data for more columns than we display in the grid.

The ‘getrowdata’ function only seems to provide access to the information for the columns actually in the grid column list. Is there a way to get to all of the data supplied to the adapter?

It will not be easy for us to add the columns to the grid for historical reasons. I had hoped that the DataAdapter would provide access to all of the data that was given to it, not just the data that maps to columns.

Is there a way to get this information?

Thanks,
Stan

Hi Stan,

The adapter loads data depending on the datafields array of the adapter. dataAdapter.records returns the stored array of data in the adapter.

Hi Peter,

Thank you very much!

To make this a little more clear for others reading this later: This means that I can add the fields only to the datafields collection of the DataAdapter to make them available, without having to also add hidden columns to the grid.
