Case: I have one ComboBox which i fill up by using DisplayMember, DataSource with DataTable.
[Code]....
When user key-in in ComboBox (not select from the list), I check with above all possible but still got nothing. According to my knowledge, .Contains(cboStudent.Text) should work. Right?
I out of idea to check this checking.
I have been working on something for a week or so, trying to get it to work, but regardless of what I do, it is not doing anything. I have two forms, one called frmWorkLogEntryStart and the other called frmWorkLogEntry.

Is there any better performance by checking for a true value like this:

I have been creating a call management application and I am having a problem with something that I have spent weeks on trying to get working and nothing I try is working for me. My application is an MDI application written in VB.NET 2005 Professional, using .NET Framework 2.0. It uses a back end database using Microsoft SQL Server 2005.When the MDI application launches, a form is displayed to the end user asking for phone number (MaskedTextBox) and a partner name. The partner names are within a ComboBox.
When the end user types in the phone number and selects a value from within the ComboBox, s/he clicks on the start button. This then opens a second form. The phone number from the MaskedTextBox is to default in a second MaskedTextBox (this I am able to get working without issue.) The partner name selected from the ComboBox is to default on the second ComboBox. This is the part where I have been working on it for weeks and not able to get it to function.
The second form has many ComboBoxes, all of which pull down items from a particular table within the database. Some of them are editable and some are not. The ones that are editable are also auto complete Suggest/Append on the ListItems.I wrote a sub to handle the population of these ComboBoxes and also to handle if they are editable or not. All of this is working. However, my main issue is that I can't get the value on the second form to default to what ever was selected on the first form. I do not get any errors but regardless of what I do, the second form always stays as the first item in the list regardless.
The code I am using is as follows:
<CLSCompliant(True)> Public Sub PopulateDropDownListFromDB(ByVal cboName As Elegant.Ui.ComboBox, _
ByVal TableName As String, ByVal ColumnName As String, _
ByVal UseAutoComplete As Boolean, _
ByVal UseSQLDistinct As Boolean)

I have used the command:
For Each Proc as process in process.getprocesses
Combobox1.Items.Add(Proc.MainWindowTitle)
to populate a combo box with the list of current process windows, however for every process that doesnt have a main window title there is a blank space, is there a way that I could tell it to not insert the item if it's mainwindowtitle field is blank?

i have a combobox containing countries name and their codes like INDIA:CNT001 then i have a textbox that store the code of country i.e CNT001(fetching from database) Now i want to match that code with the combobox code so that the combobox is set to that item when i click a button. i m using vb.net and sql server as database.
View 5 Repliesmy program downloads into a combobox every item(line) that is in a text file located on a server.
Every line in the text file ends with "a)" or with "g)".
Now I just want to make 3 radio buttons:
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "g)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "a)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox of both (I already know how to do).
How can I do so?
To download the entire list in the combobox I do:
Dim List As String = client.DownloadString("http://mywebsite.com/mytextfile.txt)Dim lines As String() = List.Split(New String() {ControlChars.CrLf}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(lines)
I am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.
For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.
My code follows. I have six items (indices 0-6) and I'm trying to check if one has been selected or not. If not, then messagebox yells at you to select one. If it does, it tells you what you have selected. I'm having a horrible brain fart and contemplated coming here for about 45 minutes as I couldn't get it.
If ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString <> "" Then
MessageBox.Show("You selected " + ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString)
Else
MessageBox.Show("Please select an item.")
End If

I am trying to check where an item in my array list exists in the database.The list would have already been created at an earlier stage.Now that some items may have been removed from the database, I wish to check the list against that database before removing the items, from the list, which are no longer in the database.The following code removes all items from the list rather than just each one which doesnt exist.[code]....

I can't populate my combobox with ANYTHING I code, and I don't like the click and pull system. it compiles, no exceptions, but it still doesn't populate my combo... this is the code

I want to check if two combobox values are equal. The comboboxes are in a datagridview.I found you need to use datagridview_EditingControlShowing to add a handler to the comobo boxes for selectedindexchanged. I can do this with this code.
Code:
Private Sub dgridRegisters_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) Handles dgridRegisters.EditingControlShowing
Dim combo As ComboBox = CType(e.Control, ComboBox)
[code]....
However, the message box comes up for every combobox in my datagrid when I change the index, not just the cmbPort2. I would like to have something like this...
If cmbPort1.selectedindex == cmbport2.selectedindex then
'do something
endif
..but it doesn't seem possible.
How I could go about checking a typed value in a combo to the values in the combo box. I am making a system to select lockerID and Supplier ID I want the user to be able to enter the value in the combo box as well as select the value form the list in the combo box. Here is the code I have been trying.
If cboStockID.Text = "" And cboStockID.Text <> cboStockID.Items.ToString Then
MsgBox("Please enter Stock ID")
Exit Sub
ElseIf cboSupplierID.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("Please Enter Supplier ID")
Exit Sub
End If
Can someone tell me why this code works exactley the opposite of the way I thought it should?

I have a combobox (cbKeyWords). I want to make sure tbAddEdit.Text does not already exist before I save. To me I should be testing for a False result not True. But the above code, goes to the msgbox if findstringexact=false and saves the data if it's true.

I'm trying to add a string to a listbox if there is none exact string existed inside, but it turns out a very weird error. Look at this.
On form_load, I have this:
AddHandler Server1.OnUserLoggedIn, AddressOf HandleUser
And then,
Public Sub HandleUser(ByVal username As String)
'Here, you handle adding the text to a text box.
Me.Invoke(New PrintMessageDelegate(AddressOf AddUser), username)
End Sub

The output is when I connect the first client, it works fine. But, when I try to connect the second client, it prints out three times both the listbox1 item and the txtDisplay. It's like get caught in loop, but I have tried other kind of loops like for each and other string comparison too, still work that way.
How would one go about checking a listbox's items for duplicates? Basically I need to write a program that displays the teams from a text file provided by my instructor, in alphabetical order. I can do that, but what I can't figure out is how to prevent the For loop from adding a duplicate team. What I'm envisioning is:
If teams(i).name is not in lstTeams.Items Then
lstTeams.Items.Add(teams(i).name)
End If
I have a program that compiles and works so far, except for the above problem and my alphabetical order (which I can probably figure out on my own:
Public Class danbrockteams
Structure team
Dim name As String
[Code]....
This works except that my listbox is filled with the team every player is in rather than just listing all possible teams. Not exactly looking for someone to just give me the answer, as I understand things best when figuring them out on my own, so I suppose a hint is what I'm really after.

I have a program which is almost complete, it gets data that is new or newly modified (well at least since my program last got this data). The problem I have is currently i'm adding this "new" data but i've just clicked some of this data may be in my database already just updated. For example, I have added some user data to my database but a user has just updated their user name - so this is now newly modified! I don't want to add it as new data I want to update my current row in my database. My question is how can i do a SQL query in my access database to see if this row exists or not?
