I am writing an application in VB 2008 Express which will consist of a parent process which calls / runs / executes several child processes. I can happily start up a utility program from the parent process, passing parameters to it through Process.StartInfo.Arguments
View 1 RepliesI have a main form, and some sub forms, and each sub form can have some sub forms. When I have multiple sub forms open, and I try to get data from the parent form, it returns the data from the wrong parent form.For example I have two instances of Mainform.subform running. If I do something like this in a child form of one instance of the subform. It returns data from the other subform.
dim l = Mainform.subform.listofdata

I'm trying to create a document that displays a list of items, with details below each item. I feel like what I'm trying to do should be relatively simple, and the answer is hiding under my nose, but I can't find what I'm looking for.
For an example, let's say I'm just listing people, with a child list of their favorite foods.
This is how the data will eventually be displayed:

I'm trying to do this with a gridview control. I'm not sure that's what I should be using. But what I'm having trouble with, is getting the gridview to only list items with a unique USERID. And then using that unique USERID to list each item individually below.
Is there any kind of "automated" way of pulling this off using standard .net controls without going in and manually piecing it all together from the codebehind?
I'm using vb.net 2008. And I am using ADO Update to Insert new data. So I have a Dataset with two tables - one a Parent and one a Child.

i have a one two many relationship on a form that loads empty so that the user have to do a search in order to populate the data into the form. To acomplish this, i created a filter (query) in the dataset. The filter works fine for the parent data, but how can i load its corresponding child data?
This is the code generated automatically when i created the filter in the DataSet:

After several hours of searching the internet I could not find any Report Viewer tutorials that show a project that contains a parent/child report. I'm using rdlc report files.I can create a single report but we want to create a report that shows shows invoice header information followed by the invoice details followed by the next invoice header and details and so on.
If a sample project is not available, do you know of an online tutorial that shows how to do it?I saw something that might help on gotreportviewer.com about subreports, but it's in C# and not VB.Net so I could not figure out how it works.

I have a table (Projects) which is linked to projectVersions on projectID..projectVersions contains several columns on which I'd like to filter a returned project (and associated projectVersions) list. For example there is a "capacity" column and a "country" column. I am doing a filtered list of projects on one page and I'd like to include all projects where any one of the associated projectVersions has a capacity of 750ml and a country of "France" for example.It may be that a particular parameter is not set and so I pass a zero to indicate not to filter on that.I guess this needs some kind of subquery as when I try and do something like this: [code] it doesn't work as the "xxx" bit, being one-to-many, expects me to specify an item to get at the entities within and yet I want to query where ANY of the associated versions match one of the criteria.

Note: I am working with Visual Studio 2010 Professional. Note: There are a lot of MDI Child posts, but none (that I have found) that apply to my scenario...

I have two datatables inside a single dataset (all are typed). dtOriginalData contains roughly 25 or so fields, which included IDs, descriptions and other bits of data. The ID is the PKey in this case. dtEditData contains almost the same columns as the first,with a couple of extras thrown in. One of the fields in dtEditData is the ID from dtOriginalDatafter the two tables are loaded, I create a datarelation between the two using this ID field. I then update some of the fields in the dtEditData and set their expression to pull data from the Parent table (dtOriginalData) ... this is then fed to a grid. So far everythign works fineNow I need to add some functionality, displaying the Original Data, the Edited Data and the variances between the two.
The bindingContext is set cocrrectly. I've successfully bound all of the edited fields to their appropriate labels, and everything updates as I scroll through the data in the grid.It's all fine and dandy... except.... for the Original Data fields... I bound them to dtOriginalData.... and all I get is the first record displaying. It's not taking into consideration the relation between the two databases and advancing the index on it. So, what I need to find out, is if there is a way to do the databindings so that the two data tables will move in synch with each other, keeping the displayed values updated with the correct information. If, for some reason I can't find a way, I may have to resort to a gawd awful datatable with 30+ fields in it.
