Data Combo Searching System For Records In List

Aug 5, 2009

In general Combo Box looks for the strings in the list that Start with the text that typed in the textbox portion of combo box.

I want a feature in combo box which do not just look in the starting of the strings, insted they shold search the maching strings within any part of records i.e. If User types 'Ja' in textbox portion, the the list should show following maches with highlighting the mached records

Micle Jackson
Sandeep B Jakhotya
Javid Akhatar
Suresh Jadhav
Jackie Chan like this.

Similar control is already used by Yahoo Web Site for Search Assistance in its Web Search Combo box. Here if we type say 'bush', it will populate following records

george w bush
jenna bush
bush shoe
bush game
hot dog bush

I want the same with Visual Basic for Windows Form Applications.

String Searching - Find Records That Does Not Have This List Of Strings In

Jun 12, 2011

I have a problem finding strings that do not exist in a column in a database. I am going to use linq but its more the 'way' of doing I am concerned with.

I have strings like;
MEAL
GPST
EXLEG
EXLG ...etc

I need to find records that does not have this list of strings in, so for example DBML BUT sometimes I can have the string MEALDBML, or more concatenated. So this is a known string of MEAL and unknown string of DBML. I would then want to see that record. I do not know the unknown strings up front, so its a case of feeding in the strings I know are ok, and finding one that are outside that list. I was also thinking of regex?

VS 2008 Searching Through Records In A Data Table

Jan 13, 2011

I'm trying to write code that allows a search for a particular record in a data table. The table, imported from an access database has 4 columns, the first being names of cities. I need to search for a particular city and have it display the city name and the other three columns of data for that row in particular text boxes. Here is my code...it is the last sub routine that is the problem...I'm tying myself in noob-ish knots trying to figure out nested loops etc to search... (I've commented some of it out whilst I tried to figure it out but I'm running out of time and patience and my knowledge of VB is limited!!)

Loading Xml Into Combo Box Shows System.Data.DataRowView

May 13, 2009

I've got an xml file that i'm trying to bind to a combo box. i'm trying to save the selected value of the combo to another text box. when my form initially loads, the text box shows System.Data.DataRowView instead of the currently selected value.i've read on other posts that this can happen if you don't have the right column names specified. but i'm pretty sure that's not my problem... because i'm not using string values for names, but referencing them by index. also, the actual combo boxes do display the list of values.[code]...

Code For Searching Through Student Records?

Jan 5, 2012

Ok I have a search Button that will search through a student table and produce the grades of all the stdents in a class room when I enter the class room number into a textbox(txtclass.Text). The results will be displayed in a DataGridView and also I have the average grade of the class displayed in another textbox(marks.Text).

My program runs fine but I would like to add more code so that If I enter a wrong classrom number into the search textbox and Search for it then I would like a messagebox to pop up and say that the classrom you have entered does not exist. .I have tried different if statements but none has worked for me so far.

Searching And Displaying Specific Records In A DataGrid

Apr 6, 2009

I've tried a few different methods I could find in order to connect my VB .NET program to a book store's database. While I've been able to connect to it and display the contents of its tables in a DataGrid, I need to be able to search the tables and display specific records, depending on the contents of appropriate the adjacent text boxes.[code]This is a code I've used for a very similar process, just really aims to search a different field in the table. If this is easier to adapt into a code that allows searching and producing specific records in a database, please use this one.

Searching Table Records In 2008 Express

Jul 8, 2010

I have a form that reads the data from the database table ( so you can see I have figured out how to attach to a databse table)On the form I can scroll through the data with use of the binding navigator that VB automaticly installed on the form, but I need to search the table for specific data in one field.I am guessing that one way is to use a query, but I can't figure out how to use one.I realize that this may be real simple, but because I am just learning VB, I don't know where to start.

Mar 4, 2011

I need to search a keyword put in a text box. In my case, I want to search records by the month name. I would want a command button that displays results according to the keyword typed in a text box.

Me.Validate()

Getting System.Data.DataRowView In Drop Down List As Opposed To Values From Database

Sep 30, 2010

I'm populating a custom dropdown list control on the fly that's tied to data grid using VB .NET 2008. The form will display all the manufactures when the edit button on the data grid is selected.

The dropdown I created works fine. However, when I try to populate the drop down with the respected manufacture values from the database, I only get a value of "System.Data.DataRowView" that being populated in the dropdown list as opposed to my values from the database.

Here's the basic code I use to first create and populate the drop down control:

<asp:DropDownList ID="Manufacturedd" Runat="server" DataSource='<%# m_ItrackerData.Tables("Misc_Manufacture") %>' SelectedIndex='<%# getSelectedManufacture(DataBinder.Eval(Container, "DataItem.Manufacture"))
%>'></asp:DropDownList>

Searching A Generic List

May 14, 2009

I have been reading extensively about searching generic lists in VB.NET with the usage of delegates.However, I still cannot seem to grasp how to achieve what I want to, which I believe is frustratingly simple! I have a list populated with instances of an object with three parameters (fields/ variables).When I receive a new object to add to the list I want to search the list for the "layer" field.If the field matches then I will replace that row (object) in the list with the new object, if no match is found then I will add it to the list.

Searching The Custom List?

Feb 12, 2010

I want to use a System.Collections.Generic.List<Of T> and store custom objects in the list. I then want to filter the list by my own custom defined criteria and return a System.Collections.Generic.List<Of T> of all the objects in the list matching my search criteria. For searching in Java, you would create an object that implements the comparator interface. The object would then be passed as an argument to the list's sort method. Is there an equivalent VB way to do this BUT when searching for items in the list?I have looked at using delegate functions, but these pass EVERY item of the collection into the function, which is not efficient in any way.

Searching A List For A Text Box String?

It seems simple enough, but apparently I cant figure it out. Theres more to my actual problem, but once I figure out this concept then I can do the rest. I want to search a list for a given string, and if it matches, then print it out. If it doesnt match, then it moves to the next item in the list. If if doesnt find any matches, it says "no matches found".
