Add Multi-column Data To WPF ListView In Vprogram 2008?
Apr 30, 2011
I've been searching and searching, but I haven't been able to find a halfway-decent way of adding multiple columns of data into a WPF VB.NET ListView. The data I'm adding is not from a datasource. [code]...
I am trying to populate a multi-column listview from a file. I have gotten as far as reading the correct data from the file to an array and populating the correct columns with said data. However, sometimes the array will span multiple lines of data in the file and I need all of these matches to populate the listview but the code that I have now only populates the listview with the data from the first matching line. I have tried declaring the variables as listviewitems instead of strings, which allowed me to use listView.Items.AddRange(arr) but then all of the data appeared in the first column instead of spread across all columns like it is supposed to. At this point I am at a loss because I can only figure out how to either fill the first column with all data or fill all columns with only the first line of data. Here is the code that I have
[Code]...
It is really only the last part of the If.. Then statement that I need help with. I was thinking that a loop would accomplish what I am trying but I am still pretty new to VB and do not know the correct code.
I have been reading books and the forums for a rew days now trying to work out how to use any control to carry out the following:Basically, I want to display a selection e.g "Club Name" in a combobox (or similar control) and have the ID of that selection in a separate hidden column e.g. "ClubID". This will allow me to easily reference and store the actual "ClubID" in the required record when I save it back to the database.I can not use the "SelectedIndex" property of the control as the combobox is populated from a 'sorted' stored procedure so the "SelectedIndex" does not match the actual index of the selection.
I have found lots of posts saying use the "ListView" control, but none of them actually show examples of how to bind the control to a data control to acheive what I need.What I am after is a turorial showing ADO code (because I want to hard code this to get a better understanding of how it all works) binding a multi-column control to a SQL database.
I am going crazy trying to figure this one out. I have been told many times that you can get the data of a column in a listview in this manner: YourListView.SelectedItems(0).SubItems(1).text This does not work. I have a ListView called EmployeeListView that is correctly populated by my database. There are three columns: (0) is First name, (1) is Last name and (2) is Employee ID. I can see the information in the ListView when I run the program. What I need to do is to pull out the Employee ID and put that into a variable called EmpID.
I need to add data into a multi-column list, manually, in codes. I am using VB Express 2008. Could someone please hint me on how to do this with the following controls:
The ListBox or the ListView The Grid (I think it is the DataGridView)
Or anyother simple way of doing the stuff. All I want is simplicity.
In one of my other posts I asked how would I update more than 1 item in a listview, I have been still figuring that out when It occured to me that I could use code along the lines of this
Dim a As Integer = 0 Dim days As String Do Until a = ListView1.Items.Count
Ok lets say you have a listview well call it "lv". There are items A, B, C and D. If i select A, C and D (holding ctrl) and hit a button it enters A, C, and D in a text box like below
"A(space)C(space)D(space)" note: (space) is a space
how would i go about doing this? Below is the button that you would hit to send the selected items text into the textbox. (doesnt work)ERROR i keep getting: InvalidArgument=Value of '3' is not valid for 'index'. Parameter name: index
I am making one program, it goes like: I put some data in textbox and when I press the button it goes to listview this part is no problem, but I don't know how to sum data what is entered in listview column nr 4 when I press some button and display the result in one other textbox or label.
i am developing a point of sales system. currently i have my product code scanned and displayed in a listview. lets say that i have 5 product codes displayed in my first listview. By clicking on a button, how can i use these codes to call upon the details (prices, product name, etc.) of the corresponding codes and display in another listview?
i am using Visual Basic 2008 and MsAccess as my database. who have the idea on solving my question. (As my last thread has not been answered at all..
I've a ListView with 5 columns and the CheckBoxes property is set to true, Now how do i make the Checkboxes on any other column rather then the 1St column? Also i would like to change the state picture of the checkbox to something else when it's checked and unchecked.
How would I change the text in the last column in the listview. I was thinking of looping around the lsitview but that would just change ever item. Anyways this is what I have.[code]
I have a 3 column listview. Column 1 and 2 has few integer. How can I subtract Column 1 and column and show the result in column 3. Below is a sample data for columns.
Is it possible to have a checkbox in a column header when in "Details" view? I want to be able to select all items in the ListView control with 1 click. Or is there another way to add a Select All command?
For Example: I need to develop a Small Inventory program for nearby Super Market and the need is a QR Code should be Generated for the Model Number of a Product Eg: A for Iphone and then we scan the QR Code image by Scanner connected to the PC it should automatically fill the letter " A " in the input box so that i can use that for searching the product " Iphone "
I have a ListView in which the items in the first column are selectable with a mouse click. How to I make these items non-selectable?FWIW, I've dug into the properties for the ListView but not been able to find which parameter is the right one to change.
I'm adding multi-threading facilities for the first time. I have a function that is wrapped to be run in a separated thread. This function retrieves data (text) from a combobox and it works for sure without multi-threading.
When I call it as multi-threaded, I get the following error when I try to retrieve the data from the cmobobox: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'cmb1stBL' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
It looks like a restriction of thread-safety... I assume that the child thread cannot read from his parent, to make sure that he doesn't change his parent data. So how can I read the data from the combobox? Should I read the comoboxbox data before calling the child thread?
First, I don't fully understand why VBA can have a multi column combobox but full VB doesn't? What purpose does it serve to only have a drop down list of text strings? I know there is an index property, but what if the items in the drop down can't logically be associated with an index value?
Anyways, here is my problem. I have an enumeration value that I want to add to a combobox. I have the code to go through and add the text of each enumeration value to a combobox. This is fine for enumerations whose values progress in order from 0-whatever. However, I have some enumerations whose values are, for example[code]...
I am currently using the following code to store all of the items from a listbox control in an array, and then build a string based on the array items, trimming the last two character of the string to remove the ", ". I am looking to do something similiar for my multicolumn listview control but am concerned about how to store the multiple subitems for each item in the array.
Dim myStr (listbox1.items.count) as String 'store all active medications information in an array & build a string For i As Integer = 0 To listbox1.Items.Count - 1
Can a listview multiselect in the same way as a listbox can, when it is set to electionMode = multiSimple?for instance when the listbox is set to selectionMode = multiSimpleyou can just select any number of items in the listbut...with a listview you can only multi-select when you hold down Ctrl. As soon as you lift the Ctrl key and click on an item it de-selects everything and only selects the last one you selected
