View 1 RepliesIs it better to perform data access operations on the page and then populate the properties of each usercontrol with the retrieved data. Is it better if each UC calls the business layer and pulls its own data independently without having to depend on the page.Existing Conditions:
1. Any information (Querystring, URL, etc) that the page would use for data access is also available to the individual UC's
2. Both solutions utilize caching.
My coworker insists that the first option is better since Data access only happens once on the page. The second option seems more logical to me since it will allow me to place the UC on another page without the need for any additional wiring on the page itself. The page and the UC are truly decoupled.
I have developped a usercontrol, but I can't seem to find how to databind on a property of the usercontrol in a detailsview.[code]
View 1 RepliesI have created a custom UserControl, with a custom designer, which contains a Panel which is editable. Any controls dropped onto this Panel will go off-form when an Anchor is set. This was already reported here and acknowledged as a bug:[URL].. Are there any known workarounds? Or available hotfixes for this issue?
I already implemented ISupportInitialize in my custom panel class, where i set the docking, which doesn't help. Here's the relevant code:

My requirement is as follows, I am calling a procedure and I'm populating a DataTable. Assume that the procedure is returning emp_id, emp_name, designation and status. When I use DataGridView1.DataSource = <Name of the DataTable>, I get all the columns populated into the DataGridView. How can I display only selected columns in the DataGridView. For e.g, I want to show only emp_id and emp_name.Similarly, as to how I can increase the width of the columns of the DataGridView by writing code.
View 3 RepliesI am a bit lost in concept how to implement what i want to do. I have a gridview, a checkboxlist. I bind the gridview on the page_load. Everytime user choose a checkboxlist, the gridview rebind as well. I have something like this now. This is not the actual code. Thanks so much.

So what do i put here in order to allow paging ? basically, I have 2 datatables in the above example. In the actual code, I have about 5 datatables with 4 checkboxlists. I can't use Datasource control. I need to do it in codebehind as all code already exists.
I am creating an Extended DateTime picker. I have created a Class the inherits the Default DateTimePicker and Adds a new Property NullableValue. I have placed the control on a form and bound it to a Binding Source using the NullableValue Property. When I load the record the control updates as it should. But when I change the value and save it does not save back to the database.

I tried out this calendar column from msdn... I was fascinated by it and try to imitate it but now I want to use a simple usercontrol(a button and a textbox)
It is working fine but I have a bit of a problem with the look. it doesn't resize the cell
I can create a Custom UserControl with simple properties (Integer, String, etc) and have those properties show up in the Property Panel. I can also create a Custom UserControl with properties like Size, Rectangle, etc and the properties will show up as an expandable item in the Property Panel (click on the '+' and the Size expands to Width & Height).
Is it possible to create properties with my own custom structure? e.g. Property 'Message' expands to Text, ForeColor, BackColor, Blink etc. I have tried creating a property that references a simple class or structure with containing the properties representing my custom structure but in the Property Panel the property is greyed out and cannot be expanded or modified.
The code below loads 4 Tab Pages at runtime to a TabControl. If I have UserControls in my toolbox, I can't just drag and drop the user control onto these TabPages because they don't exist yet! How do I accomplish this dynamic loading of UserControls onto the Tab Pages as they are created?

what is the diff between custom control ,inherited controls adn usercontrol in vb.netadil
View 2 RepliesWell, the title pretty much says it all. I have a user control that is a a collection of six label controls. three are used as visual color indicators, and the other three are used as the corresponding value for each color indicator. (It's sort of like a legend key on a chart or map.) I have created a custom class to store the three values, and the associated methods to interact with the values. (I can probably use a structure instead of a class, but right now, I don't want to discuss that.) My problem, is that I want to show my user control inside a cell of a DataGridView. I've looked at the examples that create a MaskedTextBox DataGridViewCell, but I can't seem to get it to work. Here is what I have:

I created a server control which consist only of fews buttons.

I then referenced it in my ASPX page. Take note that the control are in the same solution, same project located in Commun/Navigation/CWNavigation.vb.
<%@ Register TagPrefix="NAV" TagName="CWNavigation" Src="~/Commun/Navigation/CWNavigation.vb" %>
I added it to the page.
<NAV:CWNavigation ID="CWNavigationService" runat="server" />
But the designer file along with the code-behind generate it as.

I have a Windows Form that contains a custom control container as a UserControl. For the sake of this question, this custom control container is called Dashboard. This container called Dashboard contains numerous other controls depending on their permissions. I need to raise events that are contained on these controls through the Dashboard control and over to the Windows Form.
How can I bubble up the event? I'm using VB.NET for this project, but can convert C# into VB.NET.Also, to complicate matters, the main Windows Form is a VB6 project. So, I'm using the InteropFormsToolkit to accomplish this.
I have two UserControls on a MasterPage. DataEntryUC contains several TextBoxes and DropDownList. NavSaveUC contains navigation buttons. When the user clicks on a navigation button, I will be saving the data entered into DataEntryUC from the NavSaveUC UserControl.
I have a couple of tables in my DB that contain stored procedure names, control names, control types, SqlDbTypes, etc.... that correlate with DataEntryUC.
How do I reference a text box that is on DataEntryUC from NavSaveUC?
I have been working on the following code from NavSaveUC with no luck.
Dim MyControlName = "txtFirstName"
Dim MyControlType = "TextBox"
Dim MyStringValue as String

I have a usercontrol that has a main form and calls another form within the usercontrol to get some data from a database that allows the user to select some items from a CheckedListBox control on the sub form. I want to pass the selected items from the CheckedListBox back to the main form and display the results there. I have a public property called DBList of type List(of String) on the main user control. If I create a reference to the usercontrol form the second form within the usercontrol I get a new instance of a user control. All I want to do is set the property on the usercontrol and close the secondary form. How do I reference the usercontrol from the form within the usercontrol?
Code in UserControl:
Public Property DBItems() As List(Of String)
Get
Return DBItems

I just discovered the joys of UserControl's and I was wondering if it is possible to populate the usercontrol with data from a database in the UserControl's Form.Load event instead of the form the userControl is placed on. I feel it would make using the control a lot easier if it just populated itself without anymore code.I tried it with a ListView but it gave me a bunch of errors, so I didn't know if it had to be done a certain way or if it was just one of those things that doesn't work no matter what.
View 8 RepliesI have a list of strings. How do I bind it to a listbox so that the listbox updates as the data of the list changes? I'm using vb.net.I've tried this so far. I've manage to display the data, but not change it:
Public Class Form1
Private mycountries As New List(Of String)
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[code]....
I've also tried this:
ListBox1.DataBindings.Add("items", mycountries, "Item")
But items is readonly, so it doesn't work.Also, if I want to bind the enabled property of a button to a boolean, how can I do that?I've tried this but I don't know what to add for the last parameter.
Dim b As Boolean = True
Button3.DataBindings.Add("Enabled", b, "")
I have an ASP.NET page with a Wizard control containing several steps and about 80 form fields. The data is collected and inserted to a database from the code behind page. I need to set this form up so you can not only insert, but edit a record as well. So I want to databind the fields. I'd rather not use a FormView because then I would have to revise my existing code, since you can't access controls inside a FormView directly. Is there a way to databind the fields without using a FormView?
View 1 RepliesI have a button that i basically want to either show or hide it based on if a certain string has a value or not. I create the buttons in code so i was trying to used databindings with a converter but i can't seem to get the converter on the binding after the value changes. I'm not sure if I'm going after this correctly or not... Here is what i have for creating the button and the binding and the converter. "sFileLocation" is a string inside my class "QuestionsFile". This works for initialization but its just when the value of the string changes, this binding doesn't see the change and doesn't run the converter and all that for me...
Dim btn2 As New Button
Dim b2 As New Binding("sFileLocation")
b2.Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay
[code]....
The thing I don't understand too is that the binding works fine if i just binding the property to the Button.Content. So the property is updating correctly when it gets changed, and the buttons content changes accordingly.
I'm trying to do something with databinding between 2 controls...Here is a sample code (that doesnt work - and that is my wonder):
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Me.TextboxPlus2.DataBindings.Add("Text", Me.TextboxPlus1, "Text")

View 10 RepliesI would like to databind to a property that requires arguments.
I thought about defining custom columns and cells because the parameters that the property requires are available from the within the object bound to the row, but I'm having trouble materialising this idea.
As an additional problem, that I think leads on from this, I have also created a custom column and cell for the datagridview that takes the implementation of an interface during it's construction. I have added this column to the datagrid view programmatically (passing the Interface implementation to the column constructor). I've overridden the paint method which evaluates a property from the Interface implantation using arguments from the other rows in the column, but it doesn't seem to call the paint method at all. Even on DataGridView.Refresh(). Essentially I would like this column to also update, evaluate a property from the interface implentation using arguments from the underlying object bound to the row and print this number in the cell.
The reason for this second problem is so that I can implement the interface many different times and just at a column dynamically to display it's evaluation.
