ComboBoxCell Won't Show Immediately In Bound DataGridView?
Nov 20, 2009
As part of a user interface I'm designing, I'd like the user to encounter the following: when the user wants to edit a value in a cell, the cell in the DataGridView is replaced by a DataGridViewComboBoxCell. This is working now, however, when the user enters the cell (edit cell) the edit cursor stays there, and the combobox won't show. When the user leaves the cell, the Combobox shows, and after again entering the cell and clicking on the combobox, the dropdown finally shows. So 6 clicks are necessary, and I'd like to reduce this to a maximum of two clicks.
Using VB.Net on Visual Studio 2008, with .net 3.5
This is my code:
Public Class Functions:
Public Sub ComboBox(ByVal source As System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource, ByVal MainView As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView, ByVal valuemember As String, ByVal displaymember As String, ByVal row As Integer, ByVal column As Integer)
I've been programming for a while now and I have a Datagridview which is databound. It pulls up a list of my line items and that works fine. So I have: OrderID, OrderType, OrderNumber, OrderDescription Anyhow... these fields all come from the OrderDetails table. I have another table, AllOrders, where one OrderID can have multiple OrderNumbers.
What I need to do is: 1.) The OrderNumber column should be a dropdown list of all OrderNumbers from the AllOrders table where the OrderID matches. 2.) This column should also let users manually type in a value and it saves it to the list. 3.) When the user clicks a save button on the form I need to be able to reference the values from each row to save the selected value to the OrderDetails table.
I thought this would be something rather simple... and I've been pulling my hair out for days. Sometimes I can get the dropdown to load the OrderNumbers correctly, but I can't add one. I can get a ComboBox cell where I can add a value to the list, but I can't load the existing OrderNumbers, etc.
I have a Windows Forms DataGrid currently filled with text.What I want to do is have a ComboBox appear in a cell when the user enters it.After the user has chosen their item from the ComboBox list I want the ComboBox to be removed leaving just their selection as text in the DataGrid, when they leave the cell.
I am using vb.net 2010 and winforms and DataGridView. The DataGridView has a DataGridViewComboBox column. When I show the form with the DGV it shows this and empty grid but the column that contains the ComboBox shows the first item on the dropdown list. How can I have the ComboBox display nothing until it is clicked on and selected?
I have a DataGridView that is bound to a DataSet I created from a database table named Contacts. The Contacts table contains a field called StatusId. StatusId is a foreign key to a table called Status. The Status table contains StatusId and StatusName.
i have a datagridview with a column with comboboxes. My problem is that the changes that i am doing from comboboxes didn't occur to datagridview immediately but after the user click to another cell.
I have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...
My Code , Dim dtParm As DataTable = MyDataSet.tblParameter Dim dgv As DataGridView = Me.dgvResultNum_DataGrid
I have a few classes, one is a form, the other is the source of the datagridview. I want to be able to sort the columns of the datagridview by clicking on the header. Here are the classes that I am dealing with:
Imports DiscoveryByte.AddTools.Misc_Tools Public Class ViewDiscoveryFlashCards Private DBBindingSource As New BindingSource
I use Visual Basis 2008 With MySQL. I Have one from with 6 (six) Datagridviews controls I Have the following problem: If i use Form1.Show method than the form1 is only show if data connections are made and all the datagridviews are filled with data What i want is to first show Form1 with alle the empty Datagridviews (6)controls and then After that i want that the program make the data connections and fill DataGridView with data. form1.show ' call form other Form
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal eventSender As System.Object, ByVal eventArgs As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'in this Load event i make all the data connections en fill the datagridviews
There is something strange going on with my datagridview.
I've a data adapter that fills the underlying data table from a database. Then I assign this datatable as datasource to the datagridview Then I add a row to the datagridview and immediately I need to update the table in my database (as soon as user leaves the newly created row).
At this moment I have more rows (+2, not +1) in my datagridview than in the underlying datatable (the new row doesn't exists yet in it so the data adapter .Update method doesn't write anything to the database).
When DataGridView's .RowLeave event fires the undelying datatable is not yet updated. I've a question - is this behavior normal?
If using a datagridview to update a database and the datagridview is bound to a bindingsource which has its datasource as the table to be updated: where dshould you place the tableadapter.update(mydatarow)
I have a GridView control which I am dynamically binding to a DataTable which is populated by a query built based on a set of selected options.What I am trying to do is simply handle the RowDataBound event in order to format specific rows based on the value of a database field. The code in this event handler works fine. My problem is, calling this event causes the GridView to only display the first record in the DataTable, almost as if the Gridview stops after binding to the DataTable after the first row is bound. I have attempted adding the handler dynamically, but I get the same results.I know for a fact that there is sufficient data being returned (the DataTable fills with all of the records, and the GridView shows all the records fine when not touching the RowDataBound event).
I'm adding the handler immediately after generating the query, filling the DataTable, and binding the GridView: [code]I have also determined that, when handling RowDataBound, the GridView's DATABOUND event never gets fired; it seems to stop binding right after binding the first row.
I have a gridview that is bound to a datasource (Windows Forms, VB.NET). One of columns is a property of type boolean, and I want to show "yes/no" in the column instead of 0/1 or "true/false". Is this possible? Can you edit displays of columns that are bound?
The remarked area works fine when I'm accessing a specific table. I've successfully inserted the products_model field into the combobox too. The datagridview does show the table names in the db using the SHOW TABLES sql statment, but I'm not understanding how to get this info into the combobox instead.
I have two datagridview's both are databound. First one shows items for sale and the second stores all the items that were sold. I am trying too transfer selected rows from one to the other but no matter what I keep getting told "Rows cannot be programmatically added to the DataGridView's rows collection when the control is data-bound."
I am trying to transfer the entire contents of an unbound datagridview (excluding the headers) to the next row of a bound datagridview. This is what I have so far but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track or not.
vb.net Dim rowcount As Integer = dgv1.Rows.Count dgv2.SelectAll()
i have two DataGridViewComboBoxColumn that i add at run time i need the items of the first DataGridViewComboBoxColumn to stay the same in all the rows of the gridview but i want the items of the second DataGridViewComboBoxColumn to be different from row to the other depending on the selected item of the first DataGridViewComboBoxColumn
I HAVE SUB TO PUBULTAE DATATABLE AND SET THIS DATATABLE TO COMBO DATATSOURCE.I NEED PUBULTE COMBO 2 VALUE BY PARAMETER FROM COMBO 1 TO PASS THIS PARAMETER TO STPRED PROCEDURE AND RETURN DATATABLE SURCE FOR COMBO 2
HOW FILL COM 2 PER ROW Dim ID As String = COMBOBOX1.VALUE dt = DB.returnDataTable("SP_UNITS_NAME", ID)
HOW BIND DT TO COMBOBOX 2 FOR EACH ROW IN DATAGRID
I have bound an array of a class with 3 public strings.
When I run the form app and in the form load call I bind the array to the DGV all works fine and the DGV is fully populated. However, if I change an item in the array I had expected it to change in the DGV.. it doesn't. Or rather, it only updates if I click on the cell that should have changed.
I have a datagridview bound to a table adapter. It displays data just fine. Part of this data is a comments field. When a user wishes to edit this I open a seperate form with the data in a a text box. After the user edits this text, how do I update the database / datagridview?
I can update the datagridview cell's value but that doesn't propagate to the database until the focus is removed from the row. I tried BeginEdit and then EndEdit (which should commit) but apparently it needs to move to another row!
I have a form that contains a datagridview control that is bound to a dataset in design mode. This form contains various other textboxes and combobox controls as well and allows users to create and view Work Orders. It also has a Button control ("New W/O"), that when pressed will clear all values from all the controls on the form. My problem is that it's not removing the rows of data in the dgv. The code that I used to try and clear out the dgv is[code]...
How can I reset the dgv to retain it's default column headers but remove all the rows for the selected W/O?
For example; I have a DataGridView bound to a MYSQL Database. There are two string columns "Name" and "Gender". I need to make the "Gender" column a ComboBox where they can select "Male" or "Female".
Okay so I have a datagridview that is bound to a dataset. I have a column called type is a string char of either C, R, A, or V. The problem is that I want to sort the datagridview rows using that column and do so in the order I just gave so I want rows with C on top and then R and then A and then V. Because these aren't alphabetical, how could I sort the items this way? I did look into the icomparer, but really wasn't able to figure out how that works.
Has anyone here tried putting a combobox to a bound datagridview? The selected value of the combobox will depend on the value of the corresponding column in the database.
I have a datagridview. When the user clicks the edit button, the application fetches the records from the database and binds it to the datagriview. But I want to show the Gender Column as combobox with selectable 'Male' and 'Female' values.
I have a datagridview bound to a datatable and i want to add a line to it. I cannot add al ine to the dgv, because it is bound so i add the line to the datatable using Me.BurdensCRMDataSet.dtlines.Rows.Add() however this seems to add two rows - let me explain a little further: A dgv always seems to have what i would call a 'blank next' row, a blank row at the end of the dgv, which as soon as the user populates with data another blank row appears after that - maintaining this 'blank next' row provides a simple and easy way for users to keep manually adding data to a dgv
This also seems to work fine when the dgv is bound to a datatable, an empty dgv would have 1 row (the 'blank next' row) and the datatable would have 0 rows, each time the user populates the 'blank next' in the dgv it is added to the datatable and a 'blank next row is added to the dgv, so the dgv now has 2 rows and the datatable has 1 - and so on and so forth However, I cannot programatically populate this 'blank next' row on the datatable, because it doesn't exist yet in the datatable, only in the dgv and if I programatically populate it in the dgv it isn't added to the datatable and a 'blank next' row isn't added to the dgv
I am trying to use a bound datagridview and through the add button on the bindingnavigator adding a new row to the bindingsource and then pass two variables to the datagridview in the new row so they can be associated with the proper ids. I then have a save button for when the end user is done inputting the rest of the data for that record.
The code is below:
Private Sub BindingNavigator1AddItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) AddressesBindingSource.AddNew() AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("caseNumber").Value = Me.CaseNumberTextBox AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("interestID").Value = Me.InterestIDTextBox End Sub
I am attempting to convert and Access CMS to VB and possibly vb.net.
I have a string field, EventAction, that is in the database.I want that column to be a combobox column.I want to add the different EventActions to the list and let the user select the action they desire.
I have a List of an object, set to DataSource of a BindingSource, set to DataSource of a DataGridView. Then I added a DataGridViewButtonColumn which I want a click to remove that record from the collection. So I simply call collection. RemoveAt (e.rowIndex) from the DataGridView CellClick event. However this produces an IndexOutOfRange Exception; "1 does not have a value"..
So is happening here? I have maybe a vague idea, but would like to understand exactly which events are failing etc.. and what do i need to do to perform this action properly?
EDIT: This seems not to happen if I use a BindingList.. But when using a List, I get this problem..
I am using Visual Basic 10/I have 2 datagridview tables. The main datagridview can be edited by the user; adding/removing rows, changing data in text/combo columns, sort, etc. 2 columns from the second datagridview are a carbon copy of 2 columns from the main datagridview. I have achieved this by binding both datagridviews to a dataset. So that when I edit the main datagridview the effects are automatically replicated in the second datagridview.
Before I bound the datagridviews to the dataset I had a fully functional system to save the content of the datagridview to a text file and read it back in. This has now stopped working with the error message 'Can't edit a bound datagridview programmatically'.
