在复选框列表中进行多项选择以筛选数据表vb.net

Question

hope you are doing fine.

I have a datatable loaded from a database. I bind the datatable to a gridview on page_load. Now I want to filter the gridview by a user selection so I made a checkboxlist and wrote some code as follow at CheckBoxList1_SelectedIndexChanged

    Dim selectedartist As String = CheckBoxList1.SelectedItem.ToString()
    Dim dTable As DataTable = Session("dTable")
    Dim dTablenew As New DataTable

    Dim str As String = "Song_Artist ='" & selectedartist & "'"
    dTablenew = dTable.Select(str).CopyToDataTable

    GridView1.DataSource = dTablenew
    GridView1.DataBind()

With this code above, it can filter if there is only one selection on the checkboxlist. I try to loop the checkboxlist myself but always ended up in errors. Hope someone can help me out to make this work.

Thanks so much.

This is the example of the datatable i have

Because you have already used a DataTable extension with CopyToDataTable :

Dim rows = From row In dTable.AsEnumerable()
           From item In CheckBoxList1.Items.Cast(Of ListItem)()
           Where item.Selected = True AndAlso _
           row.Field(Of String)("Song_Artist") = item.Text
           Select row
If rows.Any() Then
    Dim tblFiltered = tbl.CopyToDataTable()
End If

LINQ-To-DataSet

Or in method syntax (in VB.NET not very readable)

Dim selected = CheckBoxList1.Items.Cast(Of ListItem).
               Where(Function(i) i.Selected = True).
               Select(Function(i) i.Text)
If selected.Any() Then
    Dim rows = dTable.AsEnumerable().
        Where(Function(r) selected.Contains(r.Field(Of String)("Song_Artist")))
    If rows.Any() Then
        Dim tblFiltered = rows.CopyToDataTable()
    End If
End If

Finally, the NET 2.0 DataTable.Select approach:

Dim selected As New List(Of String)
For Each item As ListItem In CheckBoxList1.Items
    If item.Selected Then
        selected.Add(String.Format("'{0}'", item.Text))
    End If
Next
If selected.Count <> 0 Then
    Dim rows = dTable.Select(String.Format(
                "Song_Artist IN ({0})",
                String.Join(",", selected)))
    If rows.Length <> 0 Then
        Dim tblFiltered = rows.CopyToDataTable()
    End If
End If
