Thread: Is there a way to have one recordset for all the selected datagrid rows?

Is there a way to have one recordset for all the selected datagrid rows? Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

I understand that we can retrieve the selected datagrid row's ids but can we easily retrieve the other columns in the recordset?

I know about the following to retrieve the IDs for the selected datagrid rows...

For i = 0 to DataGrid1.Selection.Count - 1
id = DataGrid1.Selection(i)
' do something with the ID value
idlist = idlist & id & vbCrLf
Next

and ...

Set objRS = GetSelectedRecordByID(grdProducts.Recordset, strCrntRecord, "KEYFIELDID")

But is there an easier way to just cycle through the recordset for all the selected datagrid rows? Right now, both these steps are needed (1) get the selected IDs and (2) for each ID, get the recordset where one row is one recordset.

Is there a way to have one recordset for all the selected datagrid rows?

Just wondering.

Sure. Do this:

Dim idlist
 
    ' get a list of all ID values
    For i = 0 to DataGrid1.Selection.Count - 1 
        idlist = idlist & "'" & DataGrid1.Selection(i) & "',"
    Next
 
    ' trim off trailing comma
    If Len(idlist) > 1 Then idlist = Left(idlist, Len(idlist)-1)
 
    ' now open the recordset
    Set rs = Application.GetNewConnection.Execute("select * from " & Left(DataGrid1.KeyField, Len(DataGrid1.KeyField)-2) & " where " & DataGrid1.KeyField & " in (" & idlist & ")")
   ' now do what you want with "rs" - this is a recordset of the selected rows

There are better ways to get the recordset query so you can retain the same base query that the grid is based on. Just locate the WHERE part of the query and stick in the part for the primaryid in the IDList. KWIM?
