View 7 RepliesI have a datagridview I am displaying on a form and would like to format one of the columns differently then the available formats. I have a column that is a decimal(18,2) (in the table) named "MyDecimalField". In asp.net I could do this, in the "template field" of a datagrid.
math.round(MyDecimalField / 60 , 2)
In VB.net forms I cant figure out how to do that. Basically I need to divide the cell by 60 and round that to 2 decimal places.
IE
the Cell contains this: 1283.93
I want the user to see this: 21.40
1283.93 / 60 = 21.3988333 then round it to 21.40
I have a datagridview in a form in windows application in which I have a column which accepts date values. In this column I want user to enter numeric values alone and when the user moves to next cell the value should get formatted to date type value(ex: 05/09/09). Similarly I have another column which must accept alphabets alone.

I have a SQL database, with some "status" strings. For every status I need to display a .bmp image .
I'm displaying the data from the database via DataGridView with LINQ. In order to display the DGV I have this code:
Me.MyTableAdapter.Fill(Me.TestdbDataSet.MyStatusList)
I was thinking to add another column named "Symbol" and based on the "Status" column to format the cells of the "Symbol" column to display an image.
I edited the DGV, and add a new image column.
I created a directory in my solution called "references" where I put all the .bmp files
I don't know how to do this. My first thought was to put an expression in the DataTable Properties, but I didn't manage to make that work. Another way is to format the cells in the "Symbol" column, and again I don't know how to do that. I tried with "Select Case ... Case ... End Select" with no success.
LE: Should I Insert the .bmp files into SQL database (varbinary(MAX)) If yes, how?
Two quick questions about datagridviews... I have an unbound dgv and I'm trying to do some simple formatting but sadly my .net knowledge is limited at best. I'm trying to make a balance sheet and I need to do two things:
1. How can I set row(d) to sum row(a:c) for each column (for multiple years of financials)
2. Is there anyway to not only make a row readonly, but make in unselectable (to skip totaled rows)?

I have a field defined as string for phone number which in my SQL cast to Integer.
Format the column as follows
DataGridView1.Columns("ContactPhone").DefaultCellStyle.Format = "(###) ###-####"
This works as expected for cells with a phone number but for cells without a phone number I get
{}- Which seems like the proper output for what I specified.
is it possible to format cells with no data (no phone number) to show up empty in their cell?
I have a datagridview populated using a csv file. I have a column named Date. The csv file has mixup of different date formats. So I need the date column in datagridview to be in standard "MM-dd-yyyy" format. I used below code

So I used the below shown code Me.dataGridView1.Columns("Date").DefaultCellStyle.Format = "MM-dd-yyyy"Still no effect.
I want to use barcodes in to my application in VB 2010. Also, I am a beginner in VB programming.I made a simple application. I fill a DataGridView form an SQL Table. After that i must apply a filter, and then print the form.I managed to filter the data from that DGV, but now i'm stuck at making that column to show barcodes instead of ID number.In the DataGridView, in the first column of the table, it's the ID column. In SQL this colum is set as "int"In this column are unique ID Number, and I want to convert those numbers into barcodes (Code39 - I have this font installed).
I set the font of that column to be Code39 font, but this barcode needs symbol before and after the ID number, like this: *1234* , that it can be read afterwards by a barcode scanner.How can I put those * in the ID Column ? It can be done adding a CellFormating Event?

View 1 RepliesHow do you change the column type in a datagridview programmatically? I have several tables that I want to allow the user to update using the same form. Depending on the table, I need to change the column type to a checkbox instead of text. Following is the code that I run (just exchanging the table name and column #). Everything works well as long as I don't try to change the column type.

I am writing validation for a datagridview which may open a number of different tables (dependant on what the user selects). The idea is that the user will select a lookup table to edit or add too, the datagridview opens (via a binding source) and populates itself with a specific table's data.
The user can then edit the data in the rows and when they are happy update the dataset which in turn updates the database table.
This all works except there is no validation per say prior to the update. As the datagrid loads a different table dynamically I cannot predetermine table column names (without writing a mass of hard coded values) so I would rather go by the datatype of the column since the tables all follow a similar format.[code]...
Is there a way to allow the user to only type in a certain number of characters in a datagridview column? Like a invoice number can only be 1-6 digits long and I want to stop them from typing more than 6 digits.

Failure is not an option! But sometime you need to look at those option.
