How to call a SQL Server stored procedure from a Grid
Description
Stored procedures can be called from a Grid component to get data from a database.
This video explains how to call a stored procedure from a Grid component that calculates the total annual sales for a customer. Javascript is used to prompt the user to get the year used to calculate the total annual sales. An ajax callback is then made to the server to an Xbasic function that calls the stored procedure and returns the total to the client, which is displayed in a popup window.
In this second video, we present an alternative for passing arguments from Javascript to the Xbasic callback function. It also includes a discussion of using Firebug for debugging ajax callbacks client-side.
