Funky Databinding to Control Properties
It's widely advertised that you can bind to any property of a control you'd care to. Getting it to actually work may be less than intuitive. This example binds the backcolor property of a label control based on color names stored in a database.
This ASPX code (note the Import statement at top of file):
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
DataKeyNames="HourAvailability" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="HourAvailability" HeaderText="HourAvailability" ReadOnly="True"
SortExpression="HourAvailability" />
<asp:BoundField DataField="Description" HeaderText="Description" SortExpression="Description" />
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="DisplayColor" SortExpression="DisplayColor">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Text=''>
</EditItemTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" BackColor=''
Text=''>
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString=""
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [TestingTable]">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Produces this table:
| HourAvailability | Description | DisplayColor |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Unavailable | red |
| 1 | Can Work | yellow |
| 2 | Want to Work | green |
| 3 | Scheduled To Work | blue |
| 4 | Did Work | purple |

Weird .NET Erros, Part 2
Ok, my prior success with deleting and re-publishing was a red herring. After "rebooting", I hadn't navigated to the correct page to exhibit the erro. The actual problem was that I had 2 different web pages that used the same name for their partial class. When I changed the name of the partial class for login_check.aspx so that it was no longer the same as the partial class name for schedule_interview.aspx, the errors went away.
I don't know why this wouldn't show up as an error in Visual Studio but the problem manifested as follows:
- Build > Build Website completes without error.
- Build > Publish Website completes without error.
- When you navigate to one of the problem pages, you get compile error BC30456: with an error message like 'Title' is not a member of aspfilename.aspx'

Weird .NET erros
Compiler error 'BC30456' in an ASP.NET page crops up in a deployed application that builds and runs fine in VS 2005. There's lots of noise on the net about this one, but no useful resolutions.
In my case, deleting the compiled files out of the deployed folder on the web server and re-deploying (sorry 'Publishing' in VS parlance) the web app cleared the erro.
My guess? Old compiled files were not properly deleted during the last publish causing some shit to go down. As usual when getting intermittent or seemingly random erros, "reboot" to fix.
