Databinding 101 - How To Do It In .Net
Sep 8, 2011
I 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?

I 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")

I 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.

Is 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.

In this example the IsEnabled property of my button is bound to the selected rows "Local" property of the grid and it works just fine:
<Button DockPanel.Dock="Bottom" Width="100" Height="100" IsEnabled="{Binding ElementName=dataGridRestore , Path=SelectedItem.Local}"></Button>
<my:DataGrid x:Name="dataGridRestore"
ItemsSource="{Binding}"

I have been developing this VB application for some time now in Visual Studio 2008. I have created datasets, ran into problems, reinstalled them, etc. and have been able to resume work with my application. Just recently, the datasets have completely stopped working meaning no data is pulled from the SQL server. I have tried recreating the datasets with no luck. When I create a new label and try to simply associate it to a SQL field through the properties of the label, Databindings... Text (to pull in the value of the field to this label), when I run the program, it does not pull the data. None of the datasets work. I have checked the code and designer and tried to compare it to my old version and everything looks fine.

I have a table called Sort with columnds sortID and sortname. I'm displaying my results in a datalist. I also have a table called Colors with colorid, sortId and shade. On my display I am selecting the results from the Colors table. But for the
SortId column I just have a number. Each sortId already has a sortname in the database. How do I get it so that the display page displays the sortname rather than its corresponding sortId name. Here is what I have: Sincerely, Computergyrl

I have the following code; now i set a propertygrid.selectedobject to the Square object, and start changing the Squares properties. If i change the [Position.x] or [position.y] values in the propertygrid the [Position] and [center] properties update correctly, however when i change the [Center] property, neither [Position] or [Position.x] or [Position.y] update. Is there something else i must do to get this to work both ways. Maybe something is lacking in PointFConverter?

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.

noticed the strange behavior of Databinding to ToolstripComboBox.Combobox when it is being added to ToolstripDropdown or Contextmenu. Normally I'm binding SQL data to ToolstripcomboBox.Combobox by following code.[code]Though it works perfect on ToolstripcomboBox(es) on ToolStrip or MenuStrip, failed on ToolStripSpiltButton (or) ToolStripDropdown (or) Contextmenu.

Let's say we have a controltab with two tab. The first tab contains textboxs where entry values are entered On the second tab are textboxs that display the results. I have noticed that if I fill up the entry values and create the binding between each textbox and their property and then I destroy it (without clearing the textboxs), the textboxs of the second tab will not display any result. I have this exemple here BindingAddition.rar

I made a window for the purpose of managing "profile" records
while the navigation and updating is working
i cannot seem to get insertion working, as well[code]...
when i press add, i get a new empty record, when i fill it in, i see that the collection sees it, as there is an onform listbox showing the profiles, and it gets listed there, so its actually attached to the list, but the savechanges command does not insert it into the db
there may be some validation errors upon insert, but then i would get some indication, right? now its just silently failing. as if i never tied to commit changes

When I call a function, it doesn't retain the return value for use later on in the script. How do you keep a value from something that's called within the <%# %> databinding expression?
<%#GetGoal(DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "GoalName"))%>
GetGoal just returns a string based on the value of a databound item. The reason I'm using this approach is because this is within a repeater and each row is different.
[URL]
<script runat="server">
Public Function GetGoal(ByVal Goal As Object) As String
Dim tmpControl As UserControl = LoadControl(lblLastGoal)
Page.Controls.Add(tmpControl)
If (Goal <> lblLastGoal.Text) Then

I wanna show some values of variables (about 6) inside item template of a Datalist. let's say if i have
Dim A As String = "hello world"
I wanna show that inside the Datalist. Dim A needs to be declared on Page Load or in a method somewhere .. coz the source is the database,so i can't just declare as public const on the top of the page.I tried this in Datalist but i won't work as expected.
<%= a %>
I also tried putting that different places like ItemDataBound or Page init. it won't work if the way i did was wrong.In the datasource of Datalist is a datatable with other data. So it is like i am having more than one source for Datalist. Is there any way around other than putting that Dim A inside the datatable?

My project currently holds one dataset and several forms. In each form I have dropped an instance of that dataset and certain editors are bound to tables of that dataset instance. Now this means that when each form is loaded I also have to load the relevant data into the dataset instance of that form (basically i am loading the same data more than once).
