In have the following code which returns a list and binds it to my repeater.

Dim Partnership As SPList = web.Lists("PartnersMedia")
rptPartnership.DataSource = Partnership.Items.GetDataTable()
rptPartnership.DataBind()

This is returning all the items in the list, what I want is a particular item so I have created a view which displays the 1 item. Can i access the view in a similar way to above?

TIA.

Build a CAML query using SPQuery

Then you can use something like the following

Dim Partnership As SPList = web.Lists("PartnersMedia") 
Dim query As New SPQuery()
query.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Status'/><Value Type='Text'>Completed</Value></Eq></Where>"
rptPartnership.DataSource = Partnership.GetItems(query).GetDataTable() 
rptPartnership.DataBind()

  • Sorry sample changed it's directly on the list Commented Oct 9, 2012 at 12:08
  • Out of interest can I do an "Order by" on that CAML query?

  • Yes you can prefix <Where>... with <OrderBy> <FieldRef Name="Field1" /> <FieldRef Name="Field2" Ascending="FALSE"/> </OrderBy> Commented Oct 9, 2012 at 12:37
  • Hmm can I just check something with you Per? My solution is going up on SharePoint online is SPQuery() allowed for SP online?
