Automatically Selecting First Item In Combo Box?

Sep 1, 2009

When my application starts, it scans the computers registry for COM ports and adds them in the combo box. The combo box first index is just a blank, and the second is COM1, COM2,...COMn. What I want to do is by default, I want my program to select the first COM port in the combo box, so in this case, COM1.

I know I have to use the PORTNAME property of the serial object, but not sure how I would set that equal to the 2nd index of the combo box.

Automatically Selecting An Item From A Drop Down Menu?

Aug 6, 2009

I'm trying to automate a form process from a previous employee. One of the things that I have to do to achieve this is select a COM port from a dynamically populated list. I've looked around and the closest thing I could come up with is something like:

.cbbCOMPorts.SelectedItem(1) =
True

While this compiles, the computer does not like this at run-time. It throws an exception out:

"Object variable or With block variable not set."

DataGridView And Checkboxes Re-selecting Automatically

May 24, 2010

I have a strange problem with a DataGridView I'm using which is bound to a table in VB.net

I've added a checkbox column to allow a user to tick a bunch of rows that I can then loop through and save off to a different table. All the checkboxes are enabled by default. So it's really a case of unchecking the rows which aren't required.

However, the DataGridView re-enables any checkbox that I click after I click on a checkbox in another row. So in effect, only one row can be unchecked at a time.

EDIT: I forgot to mention this is a Windows form, not an ASP.net application.

Joining ListBoxes - Selecting Items Automatically

Sep 12, 2009

I was just wondering weather it was possible to make it so that if I press the first a item on listbox1 then the first item on listbox 2 is selected aswell. For example I would like to have 2 listboxes lst1 and lst2 and I would like it so that when I select the first item on lst 1 then the first item on lst2 is automatically selected and when I select the 3rd item on lst1 then the 3rd item on lst2 is also selected.

Selecting Two Values From Combo Box To Return A Price?

Feb 8, 2011

As some of you probably already know I'm currently creating a ticket ordering system. I'm having some slight trouble getting one of the key elements of the application to work mainly because I'm not sure where to start with it.

I currently have a form with two combo boxes (one for the origin of the journey and one for the destination). The idea is that the customer tells the employee over the phone where their journey begins and ends. They will also select a date of travel - but the date of travel doesn't really matter to much at this time.

Once a to and from is selecting from each combo box, the price will be shown in a label on the same form.

I have the to, from and prices information in an Access database table and my database is already linked to my application using a data connection.

trying to get to price to display when the two values in the combo box are selected?

Selecting An Item From Database To Add To A ListBox

Dec 15, 2011

Our project is to make some simplified POS software, in our case, for a restaurant. The form I am currently working on is where you pick food items and add them to a listbox which will essentially be the order form. I made a database in Access that has food-item info and linked it to the VB project.url...My combobox narrows down the food items according to what category is selected, i.e. "Lunch".Now.. is there any way I can select an item from my database records (right box) and add them to an empty listbox that I'll save to a txt file. The database box is called "FoodItemsDataGridView" but maybe I don't even refer to that, I have no idea..

Writing To File And Selecting An Item Using A Dropdown Box?

Mar 27, 2011

My program that I'm creating is a quiz creation tool, based for teachers to create quizzes and then use them to aid with quizzing their students.I've got the whole program working in that you can create quiz, play the quiz and then see how many questions were answers correctly and how many questions their were The problem I'm having is that I don't know how I can save multiple quizzes, for example you can create one quiz, that then saves as a .txt in debug however, when you then create another quiz and click the save file the old quiz details are sitting in the .txt

Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
Dim filename As String 'full file/path name for QuizRecords.txt
Dim index As Short 'loop control variable

[code]....

So what I'd like it to do is, when saved create another text file? Or another set of data questions, I have been looking through my Computing projects in Visual Basic . NET book as well as through online but I can't find anything that I understand as such.

Changing Button Image By Selecting Combobox Item?

Aug 1, 2011

I got a Combobox with some items (item1-item7) to select and 54ish Buttons(sButton1-sButton54). Also an array(53) called Buttons. The array is filled with the items to select, like: Buttons(0) = "item 1, item 2" Everytime another item in the Combobox is selected, I'd like only some of the Buttons to change their Image. Therefore I got the array. If Item 1 is selected and Buttons(0) contains the item1 I'd like to change the Button1's image.edit: It works with changing the image of every Button:

sButton1.Image = My.Resources.image1

But I'd prefer to change all in one go (Loop) instead.

sButton(0) = "item1, item2, item3"
sButton(1) = "item2, item3"
sButton(2) = "item1, item3"

TabControl Not Selecting Or Adding Item To Newly Created Tab?

I have a Private Sub that I execute whenever a user clicks one of two or three things, and in it I create a new tab in my TabControl. Once the new tab has been created, I select it then add a formatted textbox to it. However, it is not selecting the new tab and therefore only adding the rich text box into the already selected tab (not displayed, of course, because it has a dock style of Fill.) Here iis my code to select the new tab and format / edit the rich text box:

Try
tabMain.SelectedTab = tabMain.TabPages.Item(intTabIndex) 'Select the new tab
