Visual Studio 2008 service pack 1 comes with Visual Basic Powerpack and has DataRepeatr control. i want to know that how I can add data in this control. i have in memory data. the examples i found on net are about binding DataSet to DataRepeater by fetching data from database. i want to bind in memory data. how to do this.
View 1 RepliesI have a form with a datarepeater that contains various controls (i.e. datetimepickers, text boxes, combo box) that are populated via a binding source. I also have other controls on the form that are not part of the data repeater.
I would like to force validating all controls after the data is populated. I have successfully forced validating the non-datarepeater controls using Me.ValidateChildren() at the end of my load event. However, it does not fire the validating events for the controls within the data repeater.
I have unsuccessfully tried many different attempts to set and move focus within the datarepeater controls trying to get the validating events kicked off. I am not sure where would be the best place (e.g. in drawItem? in ItemCloned?) to place the code and what it should be exactly. Here was my latest attempt:
Private Sub DataRepeater1_DrawItem(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.DataRepeaterItemEventArgs) _
Handles DataRepeater1.DrawItem
[Code]....
Note: I successfully handled the validating events in the data repeater caused by user input errors. However, I have the unusual situation that the data coming into my form is already bad for some of the controls. The purpose of the form is to validate the data coming in to it and from user-input.
I am using the Datarepeater control to make a report. I am including the a couple of bound labels and a checkbox in the Datarepeater item template. When I run the report and multiple items come up, I'd like to use the checkbox and clear the items by resetting there values to NOTHING. When I check the checkbox for the item, how do I code it so row.text=nothing only applies to the row that the checkbox is on?
View 1 RepliesHow do i make sure that the changes "done" by a user interacting with a DataRepeater control are reflected in the corresponding database source table? I have used DataRepeater in VirtualMode, do I have to supply my own code that will "actually" make corresponding changes to the actual tables, or is there a way of "configuring" or "binding" the controls on the DataRepeater to the "dataSet" so that the changes made by the user are reflected automatically in the underlying table? Whatever I have tried so far has yielded no results; whenever i edit the data on the control, the actual data is not updated. I attach a file showing the only events under which i have put some code: Load event of the Windows form, and the ItemValueNeeded event of the Repeater Control.
View 4 RepliesIs it possible to get value of a text box, say at row 4 of a datarepeater. I did it by moving control to it, but that does not work the way I want. I used code DataRepeater1.currentIndex=5, and then picked the value. Is there any possibility of getting the value without moving control to this row. I mean the way we get value from datagridview (vrName=datagridview1.item(1,1).value)

I have a checkbox as a control in a datarepeater object. I have an event handler function which handles the checkchanged event for this checkbox and sets the visibility of other fields based on it. However, the problem I am having is that the event handler function is getting fired when I set the datasource for the datarepeater - hence when the data is being populated. So the event handler function ends up trying to set the visibility of a field that has not been created yet and bombs out with a NullReferenceException error. Is there a way to stop this event handler being fired when the datarepeater is being populated? I only want this function to be called if that checkbox is changed by the user after the form has loaded.
View 2 RepliesI'm seriously about to abandon this DataRepeater. I don't want to. I want greater design control than the DataGridView. I've played with various Events for days and have settled on the CheckBox.CheckChanged Event.
What I'm trying to accomplish: My Bound DataRepeater has an UnBound CheckBox in each DataRepeaterItem.When the user 'Checks' the CheckBox, I want to change the value of a NumericUpDown Control to the value of a hidden, Bound Label.
[Code]...
This causes other, seemingly random, DataRepeaterItems (Rows) to also become Checked and thus it's NumericUpDown value to change.Am I going about this from the wrong angle? Can't see the forest for the trees?
I have a table in my MySQL database and it contains these items:
User_ID(Primary key, auto-increment)
Username
AvatarPicLink
Location
How can I insert everything into a Datarepeater? Username would be in a Label as would Location, and AvatarPicLink would be in a Picturebox.
I am manully adding data to DataRepeater, but once scrolling up and down, the data is vanished. I have only a text box in the item template.
DataRepeater1.AddNew()
DataRepeater1.CurrentItem.Controls("txt1").text="yehaa"
Here is what I have but it only works when clicking on the row. I have tried a For Each and it still only does it when clicking on the row and not every time.Basically, I am trying to get a button to change the way it looks or if it even appears and them making a picture box appear or not.
If DataRepeater1.CurrentItem.Controls("TRANSPORT_SUFFIXLabel1").Text = "A" Or DataRepeater1.CurrentItem.Controls("TRANSPORT_SUFFIXLabel1").Text = "B" Then
DataRepeater1.CurrentItem.Controls("Edit_Checklist_Btn").Enabled = True[code]....
I am using datarepeater to display rows of information from database. When i click a 'save' button and i would like to loop through the rows of data in repeater. The code i am using is able to do all these. The only problem i encountered is at the Interface side. When i am looping the data-repeater. The selection 'frame' (refer to the picture point as 'A') is moving from record to the next record and scrollbar is auto moving as well to scroll to further down until the last row where looping finish.Is there anything can be done to remove the selection 'frame' and stop datarepeater from scrolling while looping the datarepeater.
View 8 RepliesI have a winform and i have about 30 labels and 30 picture boxes on it. What i would like to do is fill each label and picturebox with a value and image from a backend database. I could have easily done this in vb6 using control struture , for eg.
for x = 1 to 30
picturebox(x).image = value from database
label(x).caption = value from database
next x
Is there something similar i can do in vb.net. I search a lot but found only complex programs difficult to understand and too much of OOP.
I have a blank winform. A textbox control with name textbox1 being added to the winform. During the form load event, I retrieve 2 string values from database and store these values into TextboxName and TextboxValue variables of string type.
I use TextboxName variable to store that textbox control name (i.e. currently TextboxName = "textbox1") and TextboxValue variable to store that textbox's text (i.e. currently TextboxValue = "Hello world"). My question is how to set the textbox1.text property without have to resort to following code:
If TextboxName = "textbox1" Then
textbox1.Text = TextboxValue
End If
how to set the textbox1.Text property without have to use IF...Then construct?
I have been working on keeping things object oriented for my project. Currently, I'm using a .DLL which supplies all of the app's classes to the WinForms project acting as the presentation layer.My .DLL will, for example, return a SortableBindingList(Of T) to code in a form. The SortableBindingList(Of T) comes from here. Let's assume a SortableBindingList(Of Product). Assuming that the .DLL's function Services.Products.GetList() returns a SortableBindingList(Of Product), I can easily do this:
DataGridView1.DataSource = Services.Products.GetList()
Now, the DataGridView is properly populated with my list of Products. Fine. However, there is no .SelectedItem property which gives me back my object which was selected in the DataGridView:
' Doesn't exist!
Dim p As Product = DataGridView1.SelectedItem
' Need to make another DB call by getting the Product ID
' from the proper Cell of the DataGridView ... yuck!
However, a ComboBox or a ListBox does in fact store and return my Product objects intact:
' Valid!
ComboBox1.DataSource = Services.Products.GetList()
Dim p as Product = ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Another however ... the ComboBox and ListBox do not show all of the fields of the Product object, only the value of the DisplayMember property.Is there a nice control in VB.NET 2008 that I am just missing, which gives me the object oriented functionality that I want which will actually display an entire object's fields and also return that object back when selected by the user?

When I enter values in the textboxes and then press a button (=leave the edit) I find that table (myDataSet.Table(0)) contains all the values I entered besides for the last control/textbox that I was in.
I have a Winform UC packed in a CAB and hosted in an aspx web page using the <object> tag. In IE7, things work. But in IE8, no matter what settings I choose, the control never gets installed. I need to point IE8 to the CAB, download it, unpack it, and run the installer in the client machine, outside IE8. The UC is fairly complex, and requires several DLLs (third party components). The control reads data from hidden fields in the hosting page, and calls javascript functions on the page.
View 4 RepliesI would like to make the Tab movement can also pressing the "Enter" Key. I have google and found the code which possible to used. But I found its not running fine with me. When I press "Enter" key,it runs fine for the tab movement. But if I put something into my textbox,it only allowed me to put 1 character and it will move next. Because the Textbox 2 can able to put in any kind of numbers. But after add in the code that allowed "Enter" key move the Tabindex,it will move to the next tab index after I lick 1 character.
Code:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox2.KeyPress

I have a groupox in a VB.NET winform app. The groupbox contains a few Labels, Textboxes and Checkboxes. This was created by simply dragging the controls out of VS toolbox. What I need to do is take the 1 Groupbox and at runtime create multiple Groupboxes to display based on user selection. Instead of dynamically creating the Groupboxes and other controls nested inside, is there a way to clone or copy the original one. Then I'd just change the properties. Label text, Textbox text, etc. And the location of the Groupbox in the layout.
