Combobox With Duplicate Display Members
Mar 2, 2010
I have a Combobox in a Windows form that has a DateTime value as the Display Member and the Room Number as the Value member. When the user makes a selection in the combobox, a textbox is populated with the corresponding room number. There are some instances in the combobox where there are identical Display Member values. When a user selects one of the duplicate values and moves the mouse cursor away from the combobox, the combobox always defaults to the first of the duplicate items.
Example:
Here are the values that are currently populated in the combobox:
Display Member Value Member
02/25/2010 9:00AM 1
02/25/2010 9:00AM 2
If the second listing in the combobox is selected (the item with the value member of 2), and then the user clicks away from the combobox, the value default to Value Member 1.
Is there anyway to keep duplicate display members in a combobox while keeping the proper value member selected?

I have a VB.NET project in Visual Studio 2008 that I created a specialized addin for. The addin prompts the user to select a database table, takes a template form class's files, copies them to another directory within the project, and renames the form class within the copied files. It then opens the new form and adds controls to it based on the fields in the database table.
The copying of the template form causes the background compiler to give 'duplicate member' errors, such as "Private Sub InitializeComponents(...) has multiple definitions with identical signatures," even though I renamed the files of the new form and the class name within them. Sometimes these errors go away before the new form is opened, but when they stick around the new form doesn't open correctly, and it throws an error instead. I implemented some code to wait until there are zero errors in the error list before trying to open the new form. This has helped sometimes, but for some reason sometimes the errors don't go away at all until the addin is closed.
How to copy the template form and rename the copy without the background compiler ever noticing duplicate members. If that's not possible, then perhaps someone has an alternative?
Here is my code that copies and renames the template form:
Private Sub CreateDataForm(ByVal tableName As String, ByVal displayName As String) ', ByVal subDataForms As IList(Of Object))
Try
Dim dataFormClassName As String = "frm" & MakeValidName(displayName)
Dim dataFormFileName As String = dataFormClassName & cVBSuffix

Using data binding and ado i am controlling a listbox selection (draws from an access database) based upon a combobox selection. Problem is i want to display more than just one column.The code i am currently using specifies the displaymember and value member on form load. However, i cant seem to be able to specify multiple display members.
Heres the code i am using on load.
Bindingsource1.datasource = a_dtBuilding
Listbox1.datasource=Bindingsource1
Listbox1.displaymember = "Building"
Im sure this is easily solved although i have read i should use a listview instead of a listbox for this.

I'm new to VB and as every beginner i've begun with a browser, i've added a combobox that records the current url of the website and adds it to a "history" combo box, the problem is that when i go on a site once, the site name shows up multiple times in the combobox. I was wondering if there is a code to only add a certain value only once,

I currently have a sql database linked to vb.net and I'm populating the comboboxes using SELECT statements. However, I'm getting duplicate records in the comboboxes.I have my database setup as 1 project to many submittals and 1 submittal to many items.
I have 3 projects in my sample dataset and I'll recieve 3 duplicate submittals and 3 duplicate items.
If I have 6 projects in my sample dataset than I'll get 6 duplicate submittals and 6 duplicate items.
I've tried adding distinct to my SQL statement, but that didn't do anything. Is there any reason why its showing as many duplicates as I have projects?

I have an enumeration in the form[code]...
I would like to use these as values in a ComboBox, but I would like to display the strings "My Stuff" and "My Things" respectively.
I'm sure I've seen a method for quickly creating some kind of local object definition where I can assign a string property to be displayed, and a "MyCollections" type property to store the value of the enum element, but I can't for the life of me think of how to explain that to a search engine.

The following solution should allow the user to enter 'colors' to a combo box; however, if the color is already entered (in an upper, lower case or mixed case format), then the 'Duplicate Color' message should be displayed. I get the message, but my color is also being converted to an upper case format in the combo box.

I'm trying to populate the list of a combobox by binding it to a datatable. Also, I want the selected value of the combobox to be bound to an object property so that when the selected value changes, it's automatically updating the object. However it's causing an error at runtime: "This causes two bindings in the collection to bind to the same property.
Parameter name: binding" I thought binding the dropdown list to a datatable and the selected value to an object were different properties but obviously I'm not getting it right.
Code:
Private Sub PopulateSiteSelect()
With Me.PlanSiteSelect
If _Plan.PlanID <> Nothing And _User.UserID <> Nothing And _Plan.Category <> Nothing Then

I have a drop-down ComboBox, where the values are a range of indexes, followed by a key value. So one line looks like:01 : 01010101010101010202020202020202
I have set the ComboBox up so that on the form, only "01 :" is displayed, but the DropDownWidth allows the entire string to be seen when the dropdown arrow is clicked.However, once that is done, I am left with "0202" (the last four characters) showing in the ComboBox, rather than "01 :" until the control loses focus. How can I force "01 :" to display?

I have been battling with this problem for months with virtually no success. I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional. The database is Microsoft SQL 2005.
I have two combo boxes - both bound to database tables. These are: Combo box 1 is for "VAT" and is bound to the VAT table. This table has 3 columns configured as shown below:

The commented out code was my pathetic attempt to put the Value member of one combo box into the display of the other. This obviously does not work and my web browser, when using Google, is full of purple headers showing the sites that I have visited looking for an answer.
When I have this working, I want to use the feature in a datagridview which may make a difference to how the problem is approached.

I have a combobox which reads a directory and displays the file names in the combobox. What I'm trying to do is when a value is selected in the combobox I wish to display this in a label.
I have tried the following
Label1.Text = Combobox1.SelectedValue
But it doesn't seem to work.
My coding to display value in the combobox
With Combobox1
.DisplayMember = "Name"
.ValueMember = "FullName"
[Code]....
I have the first snippet of coding in the Combobox1_SelectedIndexChanged event.
The "FullName" works with textbox1 when i select a value in the combobox but I want to display the "Name" in label1.text

I bind a datatable to the combobox.DataSource on load. I then give the combobox aisplayMember and a ValueMember (2 different columns out of the datatable). In the SelectedIndexChanged of the combobox I would like to use the SelectedValue property of the combobox, just to test I MsgBox(combobox.SelectedValue) and I get "Argument 'Prompt' cannot be converted to type 'String'." Why isn't it displaying the value?

I've got an Access 2007 table with names of people and the unique ID # of their sponsoring agencies. There is a second table in the accdb with the sponsoring agencies and their unique ID #. How do I display the actual agency name, and not the ID #, in a combobox?
What I want to see is this:
John Doe ABC Corporation (John Doe in textbox, ABC in combo)
The results I'm getting is this however:
John Doe 10
I'm using the code below to display the agency and name. I know this is not the right code but don't know what other code to use.

This works fine except the column being displayed contains a 6 character field (A99999) and I would like to display only the last 5 numeric characters rather than the whole column. otherwise I shall have to add an additional field into the table which contains just the numeric part of the code.
