I have a couple of texbox and combobox controls that are bound to a dataset. I can scroll this with the a bindingnavigator. But I want to have the combobox do autocomplete from the dataset. For example, if i type a "D" in the combobox bound to the 'ClientName' column of the 'ClientInfo' table,i want the comcobox to display all (or maybe the top 20) names that start with a "D". If i then type an "E" I would like the list to show all names starting with "De" and so on.
I have tried to bind the 'autocompletesource' of the combobox to the 'ClientName' column, but that did not appear to do anything.I am reasonably experienced with VB .Net, but totally new to database and data centric applications.

The website is [URL]
Also here is a screenshot of the options I am speaking of
There is a combolistbox that has a list of topics.
Depending on what topic you choose will determine what checklistbox option will appear in the check list box.
What are they doing there to create that option? I was thinking that maybe they created 20 checkedlistboxes and then if the selection of the combolistbox is "THIS" then they set the getfocus to that checkedlistbox but that didn't quite work for me.
I'm new to programming and I'm using vb.net 2010 and I'm stuck with this problem. So here are the details, I have 2 tables in my database, a product table and a category table. In my product table I have product no, product description and category no. In the category table i have category no and category desciption. So this is where Ive been stuck for the entire day, I want my combox(product) to populate based on what is in the combobox(category). For example I have "Chair" in my combobox(category), then what would appear in the combobox(product) would be "sofas", "dining chair" etc.'the part below is where the program will read the category description from my database
Sub fillcomboDesc() Dim fillcatDesc As MySqlCommand = New MySqlCommand("Select catDesc from category;", connection)

this little program so a user can choose a hotkey and then set that hotkey with a sentence. The aproach I took to using the values in the combobox to set RegisterHotkey works, but I feel like there is a much simpler and less time consuming way. Basically It too about 700 lines of code to set up 10 comboboxesHow would I go about making a global hotkey with NO modifier such as alt or control.
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices Public Class HotKeyApp Public Const MOD_ALT As Integer = &H1 'Alt key
I am using a Class_SQL that gets the table, creates the DataAdapter and DataTable.I have a combobox named cboFullname. I can fill the combobox with data from the database, ie: Dim sqlcmdtext As String = "SELECT *, Firstname + ' ' + Surname AS Fullname From Contacts". I can display full records in a datagridview.
I would like to be able to select a name from the combobox and have the record text boxes display the data and be changed with the cbofullname index changed subroutine. Here is my current code to date:
Public Class frmMain Private Sub frmMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I am using Visual Basic 2010 to develop windows forms and when I use two comboboxes one after the other with the dropdown turned on with the ComboBox_Enter event I lose the displayed value of the first combobox when the second combobox dropdown occures. If I comment out the second combobox ComboBox_Enter event so the dropdown for the second combobox dosen't drop down the display value displays in the first combobox. I have also put an empty text box between the two comboboxes and that also fixes the problem. So how can I use two combobox in sequence with the dropdowns and not lose the display value on the first combobox? My version of Visual Studio is 10.0.30319.1 RTMRel.

I am using VS2008 and I have a form which has a datagridview. This is for an invoice where I already have the user select the customer from a details view and want to have the items in the datagridview change based on what the customer selected. Then when the item is selected I want to have the price change accordingly. So far I have the customer selction as well as the item combobox(not limited to cust items yet) appear, but I cannot figure out how to get the join of the 2 items (cust+item as the price varies from cust to cust) to change the price. Question is, is it possible to do this in the same datagridview, or should i try to just break this down some other way?
