Question : ASP.NET LinQ Look up

Hello Everyone,

Is there a way that I can have an ASP.NET page execute a LINQ query when a user presses a button? I have a web form with a textbox. I have to make sure that the user entered the value correctly so I need to validate against an XML file on the server. I cannot display the values in a dropdown because there are too many to display.

Thanks everyone.

Answer : ASP.NET LinQ Look up

Presuming there are no commas in the various fields i.e. description, etc. do not include commas.

A simpler method might be to use mysql and load the first file and then issue updates with data from the second file.

You can store the output in a file and load it.
In this case make sure to add #!/usr/local/bin/perl at the top of the file and 1; at the end of the output file so you do not get errors when you require the file where the hash is stored..
