Our chapter is all on printing, but the teachers example sends the data to a new form, into a listbox. How do I take the contents of a ComboBox from one form and input it into the ListBox on another form, first adding the line "High School List".
I have this much, but then don't know how to read fromt he ComboBox. Not what is highlighted, but the full contents.
FrmPrint.Show()
FrmPrint.LstPrint.Items.Add("High School List")
I wanted to send the items within a listbox.One item at a time
this is the code snippet:
For i = 0 To 5
SMSPort.Write("AT+CMGS=" & Chr(34) & sender & Chr(34) & vbCrLf)
SMSPort.Write(listfiles.Items(i).ToString() & vbCr & Chr(26))

I'm making an easy "troubleshooting" form in my application. Basically, it consists of a button and a listbox. When the button runs, it retrieves system info and adds the information to the listbox. There is also another button where after the test finishes,
it uses process.start() to open the default mail client. The problem is, no matter what I try, I can't seem to get the full list of items into the email. How can I add the listbox items into the email?
Process.Start("mailto:emailaddress?body=listbox items here... why don't they show? & listbox1.items")
I'm trying to create a mailto hyperlink to send an email with the body being the selected items from a listbox, all on a seperate line. I have it working to where it will add the selected items but to seperate email panes.[code]...
View 18 RepliesLinking Comb Box Items to a Button to load a new form
Combo box 3 has 2 items.....Item 1, Item 2
i want it so if you click on the button when item 1 is selected it will load form3 and if item 2 is selected the same button will load form 4
I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.

View 3 RepliesHow can you add items to a listbox on a form? Also this needs to be included so if another item is added by user it will be added directly to database.
Reason i am asking that is my project has to work in cojunction with Oracle Plus.
So far if i remember it is something like
.Add("Horror")
.Add("Romance")
I'm unsure if that is correct but i want the items to appear so the user can select one from list.
I think you have to include a data reader but don't mind that i can handle that. All i want is to add items to listbox when form loads.
I have two forms with one listbox on each form. How can I show what I have in the listbox on form1 on form2. I have a button on form1 to go to form2.
Private Sub btnform2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnform2.Click
Form2.Show()
Dim sTemp As String = TextBox1.Text & ":" & textbox2.Text & ":" & textbox3.Text & ":" & textbox4.Text & ":" & textbox5.Text
Form2.ListBoxFonts.Items.Add(sTemp) 'add to the listbox
End Sub
But when I click the button it goes to the form2 but it only shows one list and nothing else. When I go to form1 to add another list, it comes up with the listbox on form2 with two list, but when I go to my form2, it only shows the latest one I put in, it never shows two or more list, its probably just one line of code.
'Form 1- start a new thread and declare a new second form. Have it invoke before adding an entry. as this apart from "CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false" is a workaround.
Code:
Public Class Form1
Dim t As New Thread(AddressOf startanew)
Private Sub startanew()

I know how to add the items during design time but how do you add the items through code. I want to fill the combo box in the datagrid with the results of an SQL query?
View 3 RepliesI am using Visual Basic 2010 Express. I have 2 forms. A main form which does all the grunt work and then a small supporting form to get some additional user inputs.
Some program background...I am developing a program to characterize solid rocket motors based on test stand data for a hobby project. I load the time, thrust data into lists via a streamreader from a text box.
However, since the data is raw I would like for the user to select the "start" and "end" of the burn. I am currently trying to do it right after I load the data. As I read the data in, I just put it in the listbox of the supporting form as well. My main issue is, I need two values from the user. A start and end time. the index would probably be easiest, as I will rewrite the data list based on the time increment and delete everything before the first listbox selection and everything after the second selection. I can't get the values from the main form. I have exhaustively searched the internet trying to find something that I can apply. If someone could help with a framework on how to do this.
I understand how to get text from this text box on a different form, but this deals in variables and maybe setting up a class? I am having trouble communicating between the two forms.
I have a webbrowser I'm making, and my listbox items for form2 disappear once I close form2 and reopen form 2. However, once I restart the program (Close everything) and re-enter, the data is saved. But once I reopen the selected form, the listbox items are lost. Here is my code (It's long)
View 6 Repliesi have two forms, one form is for accepting the details of the customer and other form is to export the customer details to excel. In the second form i have a listbox which contains all the names(rather captions) of the controls on the form1. like Items In Listbox -> Map onto control of Form1 customer Name -> txtcustomerName Address -> TxtAddress. What i want to ask is what is the best way to get the values from the form1 based on the selection(s) of listbox in form2
View 1 RepliesI have some info in a listbox on another form. I want that information parsed to another form, and I would like to, for how ever many items there are in a listbox, create a button for every item and obviously parse the name to another label. I guess I would do this via an array.
View 2 RepliesI am trying to autoselect pre-programmed items in a listbox when a form opens with the control on it.but i cannot find a proper method to select all the items in the listbox and hold the resulting text as a string that will later be saved to a text file. i do not need help with saving the text to file but rather selecting the items in the listbox.so, after alot of trial and error and no luck I think I am supposed to use
ListBox.ObjectCollection
propriety. but i have no clue whats so ever in how to manage to select all the items in the listbox when this form opens...if this does not make sence then I will rephraze it.
So I want it to remove any text in the list box that has a "Job" in it and just replace it with a blank nothing.
Like if the listbox looked like this
Yardjob
jobsong
redjob
then it would change it to this
Yard
song
red
I also would like a way of removing any blank items from the listbox.

View 1 RepliesI've got a checked listbox on my form which saves the checked items to a spot in my database on the .ItemCheck event.But there's a problem, when I begin checking items, I check the box and click off it, but it doesn't save. (This is if I've only chosen one item)
If I choose two or more items it will save, but unchecking them takes a lot of clicking around to figure it out.Is there a better event that I can use? I've tried the SelectedIndexChanged and that has the same result, there's a lot of clicking around in the checkboxes to end up with the desired selected items, and it does not allow a single item.

View 8 RepliesSo I've looked at some of the posts on updating the combo box and none of the methods seem to work for me.
I have two forms I will refer to as Parent, Child. The Parent form contains a combo box of Business names from my database. The Child form adds a Business to my database. After I exit the Child form I want the combo box on the Parent form to update with the new business.
Also I created the combo box by click-dragging the Business table from my Data Sources window to my form.
