Copy data from one column to another [Resolved]

Hi,

I am trying to copy data from one column into another using a dataset binded to a datagrid. (NewPrice is a computed column, new_price column is in the sql table.)

.net does not let you save computed columns, so i need to copy the data from the computed column to the actual column.

The program runs without any errors but nothing at all is committed to the database (SQL 2000).


Here is the code in my update button:
VB.NET:
Dim command_builder As New SqlCommandBuilder(daAdaptor)
Dim dr As DataRow 
 
Dim dt As DataTable = ds.Tables("Price_List")
 
 


For Each dr In dt.GetChanges.Rows[indent]dr("new_price") = dr("NewPrice")

 
 

[/indent]Next

 
 
 
 
 
dataAdaptor.Update(ds, "Price_List")

Can any one help?

thanks
