Changing Database Tables Displayed In A GridView Control?
Sep 17, 2010
Using a Windows Form with a Menu bar and a Gridview control, I have bound data to the GridView from an MS Access 2000 database query using Dataset. The contents of this table displays just fine. But I want to be able for the user to select a different query from the menu bar and display it in the same GridView control. How can I change the query bound to the control (in VB)?
Public Class Actinide Private Sub Minerals_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Me.Actinide_Series__Radioactive_TableAdapter.Fill(Me.Minerals2000DataSet._Actinide_Series__Radioactive_) End Sub Private Sub LanthanideToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles LanthanideToolStri
[code]....
The error message that it is giving me is:
"Value of type 'Mineralogy.Minerals2000DataSet.Yttrium_MineralsDa ta Table cannot be converted to
'Mineralogy.Minerals2000DataSet._Actinide_Series__ Radioactive_Data Table'.
The query is getting information from two seperate tables,so I can't just bind a table to the control and then filter what is displayed using SQL.
I have an app that has been localized in the usual fashion (i.e., .resx files), which handles about 95% of the strings. However, I still need to localize some strings for category names that are stored in the database. I'd like to avoid adding 15 new columns named categoryname_ES, categoryname_FR, etc, and then pulling the right column dynamically. If there would be some way to pull the data, and then do a substitution in the code, I think that would be a little less messy. Maybe along the lines of:
go through gridview row by row if the language selected isn't English, look for this text value in a global resources file and replace it. Or is adding a lot of categoryname columns for each language just the way to go (ewww).
I've created a Gridview control that pulls some data from my database, but doesn't display all of the information I'm hoping it gathers. I choose not to display the primary key for user interface purposes, but require that key for basic operations on the grid.I'm currently attempting to add a "Delete" option to the table, but unfortunately I'm having very little luck. Here's my .aspx file.
'First creating a temp table, temptabell, and copying data to it from table tabell Dim strSql2 As String = "SELECT * INTO [" & temptabell & "] FROM [" & tabell & "]" Dim dbCommand2 As New OleDbCommand(strSql2, cn)

This is working, this is how I did it in VB6, but I wonder, is there an easier way?
Would it be possible to change field sizes more directly?
I'm Using vb.net 2008 i want display 2 different field in crystal report...here the code in form at vb.net 2008

I have a report viewer that i would like to display different data in depending on the report button that the user clicks. The data is stored in access databases. I am able to retreive the data and display the initial report but i have not been able to change the report/data that is being displayed.
I'm trying to link Access database with GridView control.Here's the question: One successful procedure to link database query.
[code]...
However, I got error of "The ConnectionString property has not been initialized." on da.Fill(dt) when running the second time. First time was successful.OK I finally got mistake corrected. I gotta Dim cn As New OleDbConnection("Provider = Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source = C:Class.mdb") again to use query instead of once for all queries.
I have been trying desperately to update a data base file (Microsoft Access file) through a DataGridView control. The form is very simple, containing only a button and the DataGridView control. Whenever I change anything on the DataGridView control and press the Update button, I get an error saying ""No value given for one or more parameters". Below there's a picture showing both my form and the whole code , along with the error message. In case it is not possible to update a data base file through a DataGridView control.
I am using VS2008 and SQLite. I have created a database and several tables and am attempting to populate the tables with data from arrays.
The following code (example) works fine but stops after it inserts 30 to 50 records. I am running the VB code in debug mode and when it stops, I press pause to see where it is. It stops on "SQLcommand.ExecuteNonQuery()" and when I press continue (F5) it will insert another 30 to 50 records.
I do not get an error message. Is this a timeout issue? How do I keep the loop running to the end of the array?
I want to see if anyone has used one table that has a primary key (not displayed) in the DataGridView. Then use a text box on the same form to call and group what if viewed in the DataGridView table. I want to group the displayed data of the DataGridView by the primary key of both tables.
When I select a row from my gridview by clicking on a linkbutton called 'Modify' and is the last cell in the row. Using the code below I can retrieve the key value from within the GridView1_RowCommand sub and move to the modify screen with the correct data.
Dim r As Integer = e.CommandArgument GridView1.SelectedIndex = r Dim Company As String = GridView1.SelectedDataKey(0).ToString
[Code].....
When I try to access the first row it returns the first row value from the original Gridview and not from the re-ordered one.
How to show pop up menu from database in gridview on each gridview row items ?Example of this is : http:[url].....Move your cursor to Departure time and arrival time...a want this type of popup in gridview items....which fetch entries from database..
I've got a gridview (ASP.net) inside of an update panel. I also have a "Save" button so that when I click "Save" it loops through all the rows of a grid view and passes the data to a stored procedure to update each row. This was too slow as sometimes I would be updating the database even though a change did not occur.
wondering if someone can help me some small issues I am having with building my first project.
1.I have comboboxes that allow users to enter their own choices in and then their choices are displayed into the gridview.
the problem I am having is this is allowing me to duplicate choices. for example:when I run debug to try my boxes, I can type in Johnathan into the combobox as many times as I want to and it adds is to the combobox list..so now I got 10 johnathans in my combo box.and then to make things worse, when I hit the button I made to send choices to display..it causes duplicated choices to show up in the display.What I figure is that it is easier for me to just prevent duplicates in combobox.
2.Lets say on one of 10 comboboxes I got...lets say someone skips the box and doesnt make a choice...my grid will then display the last choice made.. (man o man)for example:John chose in his boxes and is displayed on gridview: Combobox1 (john) Combo2 (5:00 PM) combo3 (waiting)now lets say I come up to the computer and in Combobox1(Dcurvez) Combo2( i skipped and didnt enter a choice) and Combobox3(In Progess)
The display will put Dcurvez....5:00 PM.....In Progress because I didnt make a choice in the time combobox..it put in the last choice (Johns) as 5:00 PM Can someone in very simple terms tell me how to fix this problem?? I am using visual studio 2008 and vb/vb.net as language this is not a webpage, btw. it is for in shop computer just.
I'm looking for a way to change the font colour on alternate rows within a datagrid. e.g. normal row would be green and the alternate row would be blue. I can change either by using me.datagrid.Styles.Row.Forcolour me.datagrid.Styles.AlternatingRow.Forcolour
The problem is that I am having trouble using both of them together as I need to manipulate both colours. I have created a HtmlRowPrepared event and have been setting them there, however, If I set the Row.Forcolour first, it will over ride the AlternatingRow.Forcolour and vice versa. This needs to be done via SEVER SIDE code only as the colour choices are held in the database.
In vb.net (2008), I want to be able to control when a contextMenuStrip (context menu) is displayed. I don't want it to always appear when the right mouse button is clicked...only when certain criteria within my program are met. I figure I would use addHandler but I'm not exactly clear on how to completely control the opening of the contextMenuStrip. I know I would issue a call to the "open" method to render the contextMenuStrip. However, I am unclear as to how to completely take over control of when to render the contextMenuStrip.
I have ASP gridview bound to an Entity Data source which works no problem, however when I try to programmatically change a header columns text, it appears to break the styling and will not allow sorting either, below is how I am trapping and changing the Header row column text.
Protected Sub gv1_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gv1.RowDataBound If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.Header Then 'retrieve the values from the userdeftable e.Row.Cells(6).Text = App.Session.Company.UserDef3 End If End Sub
Does anyone know how to choose the visualization displayed in the axwindowsmediaplayer control? I'd like the Bars, from the Bars and Waves section to always be displayed and not the last one I selected when I ran Windows Media Player on it's own.

I'm trying to make a program with transparent labels over pictureboxes and when I set the label Parent to the PictureBox the position of the label changes.
We have implemented a DirListBox control and when referencing a DFS, it only returns a partial list of directories. Does the DirListBox fully support DFS? Has anyone else had problems using DirListBox and DFS?
I am using a DateTimePicker to allow the user to select dates between which, info from a database is selected and displayed in a DataGridView.This works fine exept that the dates selected by the DateTimePicker seem to bring back results in US date format!
If I do a debug.print (DateTime1.text), the date is in UK format i.e 11/05/2009 but when these variables are used in a Select statement, the dates returned seem to be in US format e.g. selecting dates between 01/04/2009 and 7/05/2009 selects dates between 04/01/2009 and 05/07/2009 when the results are displayed in the DataGridView!
I'm in the process of making 2 database applications. Each are encountering their own set of errors. For this particular application, I have a "Main Menu" form that has a button which loads an "Add Record" form. The user is suppose to be able to insert new records here via text boxes, but the problem is that record with the first primary key is being displayed in the text boxes when the "Add Record" form loads. I have no idea and can't find anything anywhere about making these boxes blank. I'm connecting to the .accdb through a dataset.
I dipped my toe in the world of user controls as needed to double buffer a panel control and now want to create a picturebox control with a thicker border. Writing a dice based game, the dice represented by pictureboxes when clicked are highlighted and their border style changes FROM BorderStyle.none TO BorderStyle.FixedSingle, which is where I want to increase the thickness of the border. My user control code increases the border thickness using the code below:-
I'm developing a windows application. I have a form in which there is a list box and a treeview control. My purpose is to fill treeview according to list item clicks. This is done using a pair of subroutines called ReloadPermissions and FillMenuItem:
Private Sub ReloadPermissions() Dim p As New Permissions Dim i As Integer Dim it As TreeNode Dim el As New List(Of String)
[Code]...
There are only two subroutines in which nodes are added to treeview control, and they are subroutines above. The problem is that whenever list item is clicked, node count displayed in treeview is increased!!! I checked number of nodes before and after call to tvPermissions.Nodes.Clear() using MsgBox. Results show that number of nodes isn't increased (1 before call, 0 after call, again 1 after ReloadPermissions() is called), but what is displayed doesn't show such a behavior! Refreshing window by putting it under other windows or call to tvPermissions.Refresh() has no effect.
I wrote a VB.Net application that displays HTML help files according to user's search results.A user types some keywords and receives a list of HTML help files containing these keywords.When a list item is selected the HTML file is displayed in WebBrowser control.The problem is that I cannot mark the keywords in the displayed HTML file. I need to highlight them like in a standard Help. I tried many options and nothing works.If I change HTML element style manually (background color for a specific string) all pictures attached to this page are not displayed. After "Refresh" operation the pictures are displayed but the text selection is not enabled.I hope there is a standard function for this operation but I cannot find it.
I'm looking to put a few labels on a form but the text that they will display will not be static. Instead they should be dynamic as the values used will be either the value of a specific Environment variable or from a value stored in an array. These values will change depending on which user runs the application. How do I achieve this?
This is are the parts of my system where my problem occurs: - Search Button - List Box1 - TotalTextbox - Button - SQL Database with a Column named "Amount" and it only contains numbers Datatype is System.String
So, basically a user clicks the Search button and searches for a data in the SQL Database, and the result of the search displays in different Listboxes including the "Amount" Column from the database, which has it's own Listbox named "Listbox1". the Listbox is now filled with numbers.
Goal: The goal is to get the Sum of all the "Numbers" Displayed in the Listbox1, and the Total is then Displayed into a Textbox via using Click event or automatically.
The Code:
Dim sum As Double For x As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1 sum += CDbl(ListBox1.Items(x)) Next TotalTextBox.Text = sum.ToString
And i got this Error: Conversion from type 'DataRowView' to type 'Double' is not valid.
I ended up with this..
Dim sum As Double For x As Integer = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1 sum += Val(ListBox1.Items.Item(x).ToString) Next TotalTextBox.Text = sum.ToString
But the values are not adding up, the total is always at 0. i've been searching for hours now from the net to a better way of doing this.
Here's a quick Flow on what im trying to accomplish here. Record from Database -----Displays on---> Listbox1 -----User Clicks--> Button1 ----Displays Total sum on----> Textbox1
I'm having a problem with my software. Im totally new to Vb.net and only learning through ebooks and google.This is are the parts of my system where my problem occurs:
