Combo Box Control - Button Is Pressed, The Current Data Is Stored Into The Array?
May 28, 2009
I am working on an inventory managment project for a lumber mill. I am currently writing a piece of software to be used on the sorting section of the mill. The problem I am having is when a stick of lumber needs to be cut down in lengt. My current setup has a combo box that is populated with lengths of lumber that we might have (2' - 60'), a "Add" button and a data control (homemade solution with lots of labels, and panels).
The user will scan a tag into the system, and the system pulls up the info from the db. If the piece need to be cut, the user will select the length of the cut, and click the add button. The system will then populate the first line of the data control with the info from the cut (previous piece info, and new length). It also populates a pieceObject struct. This happens for any additional cut that might happen.
The problem I am having is that everytime I press the "Add" button, the length variable will update every length in the piece array.
Here is a section of the code I am dealing with.
piece is a lumberPiece, and pieceAry is a array of 15 lumberPieces
Each time the add button is pressed, the current data is stored into the array, and then the pieceNum is incremented.

Recently I have learned visual basic 2008 express edition and developed programs for data crunching and analysis. The VB 2008 express edition has microsoft visual studio 2008 v. 9.0.30729.1 SP and .NET Framework version 3.5 SP1. Now I want to create x-Y (date-Y value) graphs using the crunched data stored in an array list simulating a data base access. I download and installed the "Microsoft Chart Control for .NET Framework " and try to learn to use it within the VB 2008 express edition using the tutorial. It seems that the chart control did not get installed?
1. Do I need at VB 2008 professional to allow using the chart control?
2. Why after installing chart control, there is no change on the items under the NET components within the Toolbox>ChooseItem>.
3. How do I get to use the chart control under VB 2008 express edition.
4. Any code available to generate versatile graphics without using the chart control? Because the chart control has tons of classes already it seems the best is to just use the existing and downloadable chart control?

I have put together an array for data from two text boxes to be stored in. This works fine at the moment. I am now looking to build some form of array that will have some stored data in it already, so that someone can select the information they require from a listbox.

I have a button on my form where I'm showing a ContextMenu when the user left clicks on it, I'm actually using MouseUp right now to show it.What I would like to have happen is the user click on the button, the button stays pressed while the ContextMenu shows, it returns to normal when the ContextMenu closes (Either a menu item was selected, the user hits the escape key or they click/tab to somewhere else). Also I'd like to position the ContextMenu in the lower left corner if the menu opens down or the top left corner if it opens up. So the left edge of the ContextMenu is flush with the left edge of the button.Moreso the button staying pressed until the ContextMenu is closed.
Edit: I'm also ok with this being it's own control inheriting the FW's Button that used the assigned ContextMenu as well.

For some reason, before the selectedindexchanged sub routine finishes, combobox Description is still pointing on the last selectedindex changed and the combobox Image is on the actual current selected index changed. Once it exits the routine both combobox are in the current value.
I cant see why this is happening, causing a lot of trouble.

con.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:TestDatabase1.accdb"

I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 professional edition and I was wondering how to put files with a certain extension such as .txt from the applications current directory into a combo box in the application itself.
I have no idea how to do this or even if it's possible.Actually if no one knows I would like to ask how to get a button to open up one of those file browsers to look for a certain file and then assign a variable to the path of the file selected.

I have a problem trying to link my my datagrid view to my sql server stored procedure. The way it should work is that when I select an item in a list from my combo box it returns a set of rows on the datagrid view specific only to that item This is the code on the server sideCREATE PROCEDURE spCompanySearch
[Code]...
The @comp is supposed to be each item in the combobox list but I don't know how to do it or how to go about it

I've come up with the following and it's partly working.
Public serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5 As SerialPort
Public serialports() As Object = New Object() {serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5}
dComPort = "COM4"[code]....
The above code works fine! But im having trouble trying to now retreive whats stored in the array.In the above example, an entry will be stored in serialports(4), all other array elements will be blank.If I do this it works.
MsgBox(serialports(4).PortName) ' this retuns the value COM4
But I'd like to loop though all array elements and print out ALL the PortNames, The below code doesnt work, I get an error Object variable or With block variable not set.
For i = 0 To serialports.Length - 1
MsgBox(serialports(i).portname)

I have a datagridview on a form. I have the .selectionmode set to FullRowSelect.
I use the datagridview.select to put the focus on the form. Pressing up/down arrows they navigate through the results.
How do I capture the enter button being pressed on the current row they have highlighted?
What I will do is take the ID field of that row, I just need to know how to capture the enter button being pressed in that datagridview.

Is there a *simple* syntax that will close a form when a button is pressed and leave the application completely if there is only one form? In vb6 it is, e.g.
Private Sub Command2_Click()
Unload(me)
End Sub
I have got as far as knowing its Button2_Click...

I have a button on a form, and I want to increment a counter an display it in a lable, while the buttion is pressed. Similiar to a numberic up down control. The reason is that I want to use a custom looking button, rather than the look of the numeric up down control.
Is there an easy way to do that while the button is being pressed? Or would it make sense to change the look of the numberic up down (I don't want UP and DOWN on the same control, though).

I'm developing a interface in VB.net which will control two stepper motors. Counting on your tips I managed to control them manually I mean, there're 4 buttons used to move the motors clockwise and anti-clockwise. The point is, the main part of our project is control the motors automatically. Our idea is based on two editable fields, X and Y, where the user would insert the displacement value he'd like the motor to move. After filling up both fields, the "GO" buttons would be pressed. So the loop would run depending on the displacement values in X and Y.
Attached you can find the main screen:
Below you can find the main code.
Public Class Form3
Dim velocidade As Double = 0.004
Dim X As Integer = 0
