ComboBox Does Not Have Right Value Until Refreshed
May 28, 2008
I'm using VBE 2008. I have comboboxes in my DataGridView which is databound to a BindingList(of T). For some reason, when the DataGridView is loaded via me adding data to the BindingList, the comboboxes show a value of 0 until they are refreshed. Simply a mouseover will refresh them to the proper value. Why do they not show the proper value when loaded? The non-ComboBox cells show the correct value immediately.
The only thing is that the ComboBoxes reference data from other BindingLists, so they may be slower in getting their data. Do I need to put some sort of delay in before the ComboBoxes draw? Why are they drawing with wrong data in the first place? Alternately, if I can't figure this one out, I may need to refresh the DataGridView after loading. I tried that, but the trouble is, as the data comes in quite quickly, the DataGridView ends up with an annoying "flashing" as it's continually refreshed.
for a data other than today, but is still in the valid range of data provided to the website in the dropdown list.What I come to realise it that if I load this webpage in a browser for the first time, it would still retrieve the current day's data, but if I press F5 to refresh it, I get the data for the date I want
AllDefinitions.UserProfileseverytime?I had a problem when the list was refreshed, and I set the datasource again, the listbox showed Definitions.UserProfiles instead of the display name that I set.when I changed to always using the bindingsource, everything worked fine.
Why when i use MouseMove Property in my control that uses GDI+ screen flashes on refresh for example
Private Sub kontrolla_MouseMove(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs).If e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Left Xor e.Button = Windows.Forms.MouseButtons.Right Then
This is real strange. On my home computer I get the refreshed web page but on my office computer I get a cached copy. I should get a refreshed page every time right?
Private Sub btnAutoLoad_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAutoLoad.Click Dim MyBrowser As New WebBrowser Dim MyString As String
i have a listview with few records im able to delete the records from the listview but after deleting the record the listview is not getting refreshed [Code]
what event fires when individual textboxes that are bound to a data source using the properties pane gets refreshed? I wish to use this event to populate a few textboxes that are not bound.
i am new at everything VB.net/ASP.net. I have an ASCX.vb page that lets the user choose someone from a table. Once they do select someone, the page reloads with that persons information into another table below that one where they can submit an order for that person or remove that person. Problem being is that i wanted to store the users ID that are selected but it seems that everytime the page reloads to show an update, it dim's my array again back to default. This is my code once they choose a user:
I have created a web application in that application i have added two folder. one is admin folder and under admin i have added a upload folder. In upload folder i have three different audio's. And also i have imported DLL for Windows media player. Through this media player im able to play the audios in local host.By giving Direct path like MediaPlayer1.Filename="C:Usersamwaka.mp3".But when i host the website im getting problem the page is getting refreshed but the audio is not getting played.I have tried this path Server.Mappath("..uploadwaka.mp3") and Server. Mappath ("~adminup loadwaka.mp3)the above both paths are not working when i host the website please reply.
Can a data grid in another open form be refreshed by calling a sub routine? This app has a form with 2 data grids. When the user double click on one of the grids another form is opened that shows data details. After the user changes the details the user clicks a save button. We have placed this code in the Closing event of the the details form.
Private Sub FormParents_FormClosing(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing FormParentsAndStudents.RefreshDataGrids() End Sub
[Code]...
Can you tell us what additional coding is needed to refresh this data or if we are using the incorrect place to call this code from within the details form?
I found that if you press F5 or refress from browser window, the last event fires again example, I have clicked on a button, the button event is carried out normally, but if I refresh the page by pressing F5 key the same event is fired again.
The problem im having is that I have a table that when a user click on a button it adds a row to the table via javascript, which works fine. The problem is that if a user need to update other data the user click another button which refreshes the page and all rows the user created in the table are deleted. My question is what can I do to make the rows not to be deleted once the page is refreshed? I know some might think, just not refresh the page, but there is to much data that has to be displayed and a new query has to be generated to grab the data.
I am using VB.NET together with ADO.NET to create a program. I have set my TableAdapters as needed and bound the correct tables-columns to my comboboxes.My problem though is this:My combobox2 item is bound to a datatable. The table adapter's Fill method (the select command basicaly) includes a public variable in the where clause to fetch the correct results. I ll put some code here to clarify it a bit more.Public Class Frm_inv
I have a tab control application, each tab loads a particular user control and each of those user controls will then add other user controls that are used amongst other the user controls. For example, I have an "ucQuotes" page and an "ucInventory" page, when the specific tab is selected, the "uc****" user control is loaded on that page, and in the case of "ucQuotes" and "ucInventory" they both use a control called "ucPartNumber"; a user control consisting of a combobox, textbox, and button. I have no issues reusing the shared user controls, in this case. My problem arises with my "ucQuickPrice" control, as it is always present at the bottom of the tab control form (separate from the tabcontrol, but on the same form), and it too uses ucPartnumber.
Here's my issue, as I type into the ucPartnumber combobox, the text I type does not appear in the combobox, it appears in the textbox of the ucPartnumber control that is being used on the tabcontrol page. There are no shared instances of ucPartNumber, nor do I have this issue between typing on one tab page and the text showing on the user control of another tab page.I tried just creating the ucPartNumber controls on the ucQuickPrice control, not adding a new instance of ucPartnumber on the .Load event, and the issue persists.
The combobox(s) in question are bound programmatically with about 40,000 items, ".datasource = dataset.tablename" not to a bindingsource. Autocomplete is set to none, I added code to utilize tool tips and the basic combobox filtering functionality. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm neglecting? I'm about 95% complete with this application, and this just happened today. I made the decision, to just reuse the ucPartNumber control on the ucQuickPrice control (originallly it's size and orientation would not fit, but I added some coding to detect what parent is adding ucPartNumber and to change its appearance accordingly). Before, I made this change, I did not have this problem. And, in trying to go back to how I had things set up before the change, the problem will not go away. if the whole control within a control verbage I used is a bit confusing, let me know and I'll try to better explain what is happening. At this point, I'm going to close and reopen vbexpress, as when I started this ordeal, vb started acting weird and wanted me to save all my work, it usually does this before locking up.
I am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.
For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.
When I will click the suggested text shown in the combobox it will disappear.My Combobox btw is connected in a database.If I type Kev then kevin and kevsky will show at its suggestion then when I will click any of it ,the combobox text will be empty or will clear what I typed ("Kev") and will not show what I clicked.[code]
I am making a custom ComboBox, inherited from Winforms' standard ComboBox. For my custom ComboBox, I set DrawMode to OwnerDrawFixed and DropDownStyle to DropDownList. Then I write my own OnDrawItem method. But I ended up like this:
How do I make my Custom ComboBox to look like the Standard one?
Update 1: ButtonRenderer After searching all around, I found the ButtonRenderer class. It provides a DrawButton static/shared method which -- as the name implies -- draws the proper 3D button. I'm experimenting with it now.
Update 2: What overwrites my control?I tried using the Graphics properties of various objects I can think of, but I always fail. Finally, I tried the Graphics of the form, and apparently something is overwriting my button.
Here's the code:
Protected Overrides Sub OnDrawItem(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DrawItemEventArgs) Dim TextToDraw As String = _DefaultText __Brush_Window.Color = Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Window)
DataGridView TIPs has TextBoxes and ComboBoxes in it and the data comes from an SQL table. I see how to get or set the cell values that come from the ComboBoxes using Item, but how do I access the actual ComboBox events and properties?
I have a table in my database with 5 columns (ID1 to ID5) and just one row. I'm trying to bind a comboBox, to show ID1 through ID5 in the combobox when my form loads. I have a dataset and tableAdapter's made for this already. I just want to know how to bind a combobox to those ID values.
I'm making a combobox on a form. I want the combobox to have a list of choices from a table in a db. The two columns are a String and a Date. I want the date column to only show the year. I'm hoping I have the code right as it is above, but I'm not positive I've done the whole date thing right.
I think my question is discriptive, or as Microsoft in the Documentation for Data Grid the question is, How do I have a combo box column display a sub set of data based upon the value of a different combo box column?
I have a combobox..... When a user clicks on the list inside the combobox my webbrowser opens to the selected items website.how to make the combobox go back to the original text of the combobox?
Example: Combobox list ---- Select Item ---- Royals Mets
[code]....
When the user see's the screen the ---- Select Item ---- is visible. When a user clicks a teams name it opens the teams website and the name stays in the box. I want it to go back to ---- Select Item ---- immediately after they click a list item.
Is there a way to update source combobox to printer combobox selection?So going from printer1 to printer2 the source will update according to what that printer has to offer.
I have completed my project and i have one remaining thing to settle... I want to make the combobox not to be able to write yourself. for example there are 4 options ,"A","b", "c","d".If i type w in the combo all the project is ruined!i want not to be able to type at all to prevent this...Which property should i change?
I'm having a problem with combo boxes. I usually use Java and it's been awhile since I used VB but I never remember having this much difficulty.My application is using an SDF file. From Data Sources, I drag the details on one of my Tables to my Form to get all of the fields. Three of them are comboboxes. Each of the three is an INT64 and each corresponds to a primary key in a different table. I click the tasks button on a combobox and for data source I select the appropriate table that has the data to go with the combobox, for display member I select the field that I want users to see, and for value member I select the primary key. Then I run a quick test and start the app, open the form, and add a new record. When I select a value from the combobox the selection won't validate because it doesn't think it's an INT64 like it should be. It seems to be using the display member as the actual value instead because if I change display member to the primary everything works great.
