Create An "inline" Object To Contain Members For A ComboBox?
Oct 4, 2011
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.
I have managed to crunch down a several line code to this
For Each gal In galleries With New HtmlGenericControl("div") .ID = gal.Header
[code]....
I cannot find any where how to reference back to the object i am currently working with to add the control back to galleryContent' - Using plain me crashes the whole web server...Using does not offer the shorter hand of just using . - But it Using the only way to do it?
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 an EggSac object which contains references to >100 000 Egg objects. Some variables in the Eggs have to be maintained to be consistent with EggSac, so I want to make these only changeable by EggSac. However EggSac passes references to its Eggs all over the application, so if I use public methods then any other code could modify the secure parts of the Eggs by accident.
What's a proper OO way to make sure only the EggSac object can call the "secure" methods of the Eggs, but still make the "safe" methods available to everyone?
My idea is to split Egg's class into a base class containing only safe methods and a derived class containing the secure methods that only EggSac should have access to. Then EggSac has members of the type of the derived class, but it casts them to their base class whenever something else wants one.
I have a 3rd party object that gets passed to one of my methods. The object contains 20 or so string members. How can I easily list all of the string names and their values?
I have got this error No default member found for type 'VB$AnonymousDelegate_0(Of SqlDataReader,String,Object)'.
My Code is below

Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?
I have an object that is defined as a global variable based on custom class. Within that class I have an event that gets fired a certain intervals. These events are fired on the same thread as where the object is declared. How do I create a global object, but have the events within that object fire on a separate thread?
I am trying to write an VBA application in Excel 2010 using "Microsoft Soap Toolkit 3.0" on 64 bit Windows 7 to consume an web service. But i got an error while initializing an object of SoapClient30.
I was create Access database with Access 2003. I create VB project with Visual Studio 2005 Standard With connection wizzard I create coonect with this Access database, select all tablesI see this database inside Data sources and inside Server explorer Test connection is OK When I drag and drop table from Data sources, Wizzard don't create DataGridView, DataSourceBinding etc .. and I see popup window with mesage: Object reference not set to an instance of an object and then "game over"
Under component services, a COM+ component is used by the company, right-clicking it and choosing 'Activation' tab will show the 'constructor string' that is used for DB server connection by all applications. How can I access it the simplest way possible?
I have a class library that contains a number of classes. I would like to dynamically create an instance of one of these classes, set its properties, and call a method.
Example:
Public Interface IExample Sub DoSomething() End Interface Public Class ExampleClass
I am developing an IT Asset Tracking application using VB 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express edition. Will I need to create classes to represent objects such as Computers, Printers, Scanners/Faxes, Contracts, Purchase Orders etc or are there any other approaches.For example, if I am correct, I will have a class called Computer and its properties will include Make,Model,CPU,Hard Disk,Memory etc. Is this the right approach.
Computers can be split up into Desktop PC's, Servers and Notebooks. Would I have to create separate classes for these as well or would they be ok under the Computer class.Once I create an object from the class, how can I use the object to interact with the SQL db.I am a beginner to VB.NET 2005 therefore I am slowly getting to grips with OOP.
I am attempting to create a new mobile app using VB in visual studio 2008. I select "File" "New Project". Select "Smart Device" in new project window. Select the "Smart Device Project" from templates. Select ".NET Framework 3.5". Select "OK" and get the dreaded "object reference not set to an instance of an object"
i have an VB.NET application with few functions i need to debug (like ie. Assert in C#). Is it possible and how i do that ?
Public Shared Function createNumberArrayList(ByVal startValue As Integer, _ ByVal endValue As Integer, _ Optional ByVal isBackwards As Boolean = False) As ArrayList
[Code].....
Basically what i need is to enter few values and see if the function works and returns proper ArrayList.
I would like to add the properties "visible" and "enabled" to the Items object of a combobox in VB .Net so that I can hide or disable individual line items of the combobox. I have created the class "CustomListItem" that inherits the combobox.objectcollection. I have also created the class "CustomComboBox". Now, I would like to override the custombox.Items object with my custom one.
I've made a ComboBox in my form where I add some classes of my own design. Unfortunately they get a generic name when they are displayed in the ComboBox. How can I set their names in the Form?
Class Cabel Public Sub New(ByVal IName As String, ByVal IConstant As Double) Name = IName Constant = IConstant [Code] ..... cbCurrentCabel and cbNewCabel are the names of my two combiboxes
I have a custom business object called Customer and a Form1 with a BindingSource1, NumericUpDown1, TextBox1 and ComboBox1 and the attached code. Setting break points in the Property Sets shows that the Set for the ComboBox never fires at all even though the Set for the NumericUpDown and TextBox fire like crazy. [code]
I am working on a project that uses lots of custom class objects.Before starting work on real project, I tested the object behaviour on a temporary project. And find that if i add the object to a list and combobox and then make any change to the object property then it reflects in list and combobox.But after using the same process in real project the change does not reflect. how can i update object property placed in the combobox.for eg.Class X has property id and name created objX of type Class X and set id=1 and name='All' insert objX to combobox now, in the same form and in other function when i get objX from combobox and change name='None', then it does not reflect in combobox.
I've gotten to a point where I'm trying to add a ComboBox to a UserControl, and to populate it from a collection which exists in code.
I've been getting along pretty much on monkey-see-monkey-do coding for the most part; copying and adapting existing code in order to get the next stage working, but this DataSource stuff has me stumped. I've been through a whole bunch of articles on MSDN this morning and am no closer to understanding than I was when I started.
Let me go through a few of the things that are messing with me, and hopefully you guys will be able to point me in the right direction:
1) None of the [UserControlName].vb files contains any code. All of the code for the UserControls is stored in [UserControlName]Model.vb files, and then code of the following sort is used:
1.5) (using bullet points means I can't use <> brackets or code blocks later on. What the hell, markdown?) Anyway...
2) I'm pretty sure I only want a Static Source for the moment, as the items in the ComboBox aren't going to change during execution, at this time. Problem is, all the articles I can find about this are gigantic, complex things about creating XML readers, and populating DataGridViews and sorting data, and on and on and on. I just want to declare that I'm using a frealing List! A List I've already created in code.
So, yeah, I basically need to use a Public Property ComboBoxLines As List(Of String) from a class which isn't the same class as the UserControl itself as the DataSource for a ComboBox.
I'm pretty sure this has been answered on this thread before, but I'm having trouble searching for it, so I decided to make a new post. Anyway, My problem is that I have a Setting from "My.Settings.Navigation" that is a Specialized String Collection, and what I am trying to do is find a method in which I can attach "My.Settings.Navigation" to a ComboBox. I was also wondering if it was possible to make it only hold up to 20 items at a time?
So basically I have a ComboBox on a form, which I populated by adding custom object named "Category" and by setting the DisplayMember to the property "Name" of my object.On another form that can be opened at the same time, I can edit the name of theses "Category" objects. I raise an Event, "NameChanged" but how can I catch it on the form which contains the ComboBox? Even if the property "Name" of the object "Category" change, the display on the ComboBox doesn't autoupdate. So I need to catch the event, but I don't know how to do it.
I have a combobox in a form, I want to fill it with names I have stored in a database. I know I have to use the fill command, but I am not sure what code I need to use. I imagine I need to place this code in the form load event, where I wrote my code to connect to the database. Do I need to create a sql fill command, select Names From Users, then execute that command in the combo box object.

Why?Also, how can i update object property placed in the combobox.
for eg. Class X has property id and name created objX of type Class X and set id=1 and name='All'
