Inserting Multiple Records into Database in one shot

you need to create a Sql Type for the table you will pass in :

CREATE TYPE dbo.DistrictsType AS TABLE
    ( DistrictID int, StoreID int )

and a StoredProcedure that will insert the data from the datatable passed in

CREATE PROCEDURE usp_InsertDistricts 
(@tvpNewDistricts dbo.DistrictsType READONLY)
AS
BEGIN
    INSERT INTO dbo.Districts (DistrictID, StoreID)
    SELECT dt.DistrictID, dt.StoreID FROM @tvpNewDistricts AS dt;
END

then, back to your code you pass the district into the storedprocedure

DataTable dtDistricts = ConvertListToDataTable(Districts);
SqlCommand insertCommand = new SqlCommand("usp_InsertDistricts", sqlConnection);
SqlParameter p1 = insertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@tvpNewDistricts", dtDistricts);
p1.SqlDbType = SqlDbType.Structured;
p1.TypeName = "dbo.DistrictsType";
insertCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();

2nd way to this is by Xml as datatype in store procedure :

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[insertStore]
@XMLDATA xml,
@name varchar(50),
@image datatype
 AS
 Begin
  INSERT INTO Store
  (name
   ,image
  )
Select XMLDATA.item.value('@name[1]', 'varchar(10)') AS Name,   
XMLDATA.item.value('@image[1]', 'yourData type') AS Image
FROM @XMLDATA.nodes('//Stores/InsertList/Store') AS XMLDATA(item)
END



Similarly you can write for update and delete .In C# u need to create the xml
public  string GenerateXML(List<District> Districts)
 var xml = new StringBuilder();
 var insertxml = new StringBuilder();
 xml.Append("<Stores>");
 for (var i = 0; i < Districts.Count; i++)
        { var obj = Districts[i];
          insertxml.Append("<Store");
          insertxml.Append(" Name=\"" + obj.Name  + "\" ");
          insertxml.Append(" Image=\"" + obj.Image + "\" ");
          insertxml.Append(" />");
        }
xml.Append("<InsertList>");
xml.Append(insertxml.ToString());
xml.Append("</InsertList>");

SqlCommand cmd= new SqlCommand("insertStore",connectionString);
cmd.CommandType=CommandType.StoredProcedure;
SqlParameter param = new SqlParameter ();
param.ParameterName ="@XMLData";
param.value=xml;
paramter.Add(param);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

Difference between ref and out parameters in C#

Ref and Out Parameters: 

Both the parameters passed by reference, While for the Ref Parameter you need to initialize it before passing to the function and out parameter you do not need to initialize before passing to function. 

you need to assign values into these parameter before returning to the function. 

Ref (initialize the variable) 
int getal = 0; 
Fun_RefTest(ref getal); 


Out (no need to initialize the variable) 
int getal; 
Fun_OutTest(out getal); 


The out and the ref parameters are used to return values in the same variables, that you pass an an argument of a method. These both parameters are very useful when your method needs to return more than one values. 

In this article, I will explain how do you use these parameters in your C# applications. 

The out Parameter 

The out parameter can be used to return the values in the same variable passed as a parameter of the method. Any changes made to the parameter will be reflected in the variable. 

public class mathClass 
{ 
public static int TestOut(out int iVal1, out int iVal2) 
{ 
iVal1 = 10; 
iVal2 = 20; 
return 0; 
} 
public static void Main() 
{ 
int i, j; // variable need not be initialized 
Console.WriteLine(TestOut(out i, out j)); 
Console.WriteLine(i); 
Console.WriteLine(j); 
} 
} 

The ref parameter 

The ref keyword on a method parameter causes a method to refer to the same variable that was passed as an input parameter for the same method. If you do any changes to the variable, they will be reflected in the variable. 

You can even use ref for more than one method parameters. 

namespace TestRefP 
{ 
using System; 
public class myClass 
{ 
public static void RefTest(ref int iVal1 ) 
{ 
iVal1 += 2; 
} 
public static void Main() 
{ 
int i; // variable need to be initialized 
i = 3; 
RefTest(ref i ); 
Console.WriteLine(i); 
} 
} 
} 

find url from string and convert all the url in lower case

Here I show a simple variable that receives the HTML string and then extracts all the links in match collection class .

   Dim txt As String = ds.Tables(0).Rows(0)("matter").ToString()
                Dim regx As New Regex("href=\""(.*?)\""", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
                Dim mactches As MatchCollection = regx.Matches(txt)
                For Each match As Match In mactches
                    Dim url = match.Groups("url").Value
                    txt = txt.Replace(match.Value, match.Value.ToString().ToLower())
                Next

how set the dropdown list item size based on lenght in I.E 6

The width of the dropdown grows/shrinks during a mouseover.

here is code to do that :-

<script type="text/javascript">
    var MAX_WIDTH = 500; //the biggest width the select is allowed to be

    function biggestOption(elem) {
     var biggest = 0;
     for (var i=0;i<elem.options.length;i++) {
      if ( elem.options[i].innerHTML.length > biggest ) {
       biggest = elem.options[i].innerHTML.length;
      }
     }
     return roughPixelSize(biggest);
    }

    function roughPixelSize(charLength) {
     //this is far from perfect charLength to pixel
     //but it works for proof of concept
     roughSize =  30 + (charLength * 6);
     if (roughSize > MAX_WIDTH) {
      return MAX_WIDTH;
     } else {
      return roughSize;
     }
    }

    function resizeToBiggest(elem) {
     elem.style.width = biggestOption(elem);
    }

    function resizeToSelected(elem) {
     elem.style.width = roughPixelSize(elem.options[elem.selectedIndex].innerHTML.length);
    }

</script>

<select onmouseover="resizeToBiggest(this)" style="width:70px" onchange="resizeToSelected(this)" onblur="resizeToSelected(this)" >
    <option>test 1</option>
    <option>test 2</option>
    <option>test 3</option>
    <option>this is some really really realy long text</option>
    <option>test 4</option>
    <option>test 5</option>
</select>
