Not too familar with the propertygrid control.But I have two comboboxes that need to be added to it from my.settings. How do i setup both My.Settings and then link it into the propertygrid?
The dropdowns will be named "Location" with 5 values, and the second called Hourly/Salary with 2 values.
This would be part of my larger application where the user selects these values and then logs in.
Well basicly I have been trying trial and error, and im sure this is a very simple fix, but how would I populate a ComboBox with information from My.Settings using VB.Net.
View 6 Repliesmy old vb6 program used to store to ini files now with .net I rekon I need to do something new.. was thinking XML but then in searching around I stumbled apon this my.settings stuff.. so I followed the instructions but something strange is going one..
1. whats the difference between the standard my.settings and adding a new class that is of settings ? anything ?
2. I made 10 new settings in the setting manager but when I try to change then it gives me the old squiggle line saying no go.
I have some questions on AppSettings. I can add a setting at design time from the settings tab of the My Project. I would like to add to the settings at run time. I have not found a way to do this. I would in VB6 use an ini file but would like to start using xml.
The .net makes this folder for the settings C:UsersRyanAppDataLocalTestAppSettingsAppSettings.vshost.exe_Url _0ay3fimqt4k0pp1s2e4vb3pi3iymxzx2 .
How do I retrieve the location to add to the xml file?

I'm creating an open-source web browser in VB.NET and I'm trying to load the browsing history from My.Settings.History (StringCollection) and list the items in a listbox, but only the first item appears.

My.Settings.Current_DB is bound to 'cbdatabase' which is a combobox which is filled by this method:
me.cbdatabase.datasource = (From foulder in New IO.DirectoryInfo("" & Application.StartUpPath & "Database").GetDirectories Select (folder.Name)).ToArray I am using the My.Settings.Current_DB to keep track of the current database being used by the client. So that throughout the program and when the program starts up it knows what the current database is.
The databases and the folders have the same name, in order to keep track of. My problem is when the combobox is filled when the program starts, it is overwriting the current info with the first item of the info loaded into the combo box.
[Code]...
Instead of maintaining the Current_DB as "Default", it updates it with the first item into the Combobox and that is "Alabama". How do I fix this so that it maintains the correct Current_DB and not update when the Combobox is filled.
I am trying to be able to add everything within a listbox to a program setting that can be re loaded when its opened up again, I have the part to load them upon opening, but I don't know how to make it add all the items within the listbox to the setting, so it has something to load.
This is to load them on startup:
For Each item As String In My.Settings.logs
log.Items.Add(item.ToString)
Next
I'm pretty sure this has been answered on this thread before, but I'm having trouble searching for it, so I decided to make a new post. Anyway, My problem is that I have a Setting from "My.Settings.Navigation" that is a Specialized String Collection, and what I am trying to do is find a method in which I can attach "My.Settings.Navigation" to a ComboBox. I was also wondering if it was possible to make it only hold up to 20 items at a time?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to implement a combobox that will drop down and give a list of things that the user can select via checkbox so that they can have all, none, or some of the items selected/implemented in the program. Through some research, I've come up empty handed. I found a few tutorials that dealt with tons of class files, which I'm not really familiar with, didn't understand much, and then didn't work. Who would've thunk it right?Anyway, i tried just adding the checkedListBox as a control to the comboBox and it would disappear from the form as if it had been added, but wouldn't show up from the comboBox drop down menu..can anyone tell me how I can go about doing that?

However in a VB.Net Windows Project it won't let me duplicate this.

View 7 RepliesI have an Access database with a Parts table. I'm using tableadapters in my project. A datagridview on my form is filled manually in code. One column of the DGV contains a columntype of combobox. I've got a bindingsource on my form whose source is the Parts tableadapter. The combobox column is tied to the bindingsource and is displaying fldDescription.
The part descriptions can be changed by the users, but the original part description is saved in another table that is used to fill the grid. If part "widget" gets changed to "widget, large" I can no longer display "widget" in the combobox of the grid. I need to know how to be able to add it to the bindingsource so I can display it in the combobox. I don't want it saved to the Parts table though.
I am creating an application install program, but one of the main things i cannot get working is the combobox, this is a drop down list of all my applications that i have put in there. I was wondering if there was a way you could tell the combobox to look at a directory or share and list the names of files within it? So, for example i could place 5 programs inside a share or directory then when i run the program and the click the drop down combo the 5 programs are listed and then i can click and install this program. Also then if i add/remove any programs it also removes it from the combo list.

View 2 RepliesWhen I populate a combobox with items that have a line and text drawn in the DrawItem event, only the line image for the first item in the list appears in the drop down portion of the combobox. The other items (index>0) shown in the drop down portion of the combobox do not contain an image of the line, yet each item in the list does contain the designated text. The correct line image does appear when the user selects an item and the drop down portion of the combobox is not visible. How can I get the line image to appear in every item of the combobox when the drop down list is activated?
