View 5 RepliesI am developing a form which needed to display 2 values from a combo . I have table Account with these fields Account_type, Account_name in this table. Even though I am saving only the Account_type in to a new table but when selecting from the combo, I want the account_name also display since the account_type is a code so that user would understand the mening of the acount_type. vb.net code that would display both the code and the account name to this. I used data binding to do this, it also displayed only the code.
View 1 RepliesI've used VB to connect to Excel and get the titles of the different columns in a spreadsheet. These then display in a drop down combo box for the user to choose from. I'm getting lots of empty values in my combo box because not all the columns in Excel have titles. How would I go about telling it not to display them?
Excuse the easy question but I've only started learning to code a week ago.
is there a way to set a single cell as a combo box? it looks to me that you can only set the whole column.
View 5 RepliesHow to use a databound combo box to display one field in the drop down, and another as the combo box text on roll up? Using VS 2005... For example, I have a datatable that has 2 fields. One called "ShortDesc" and one called "LongDesc". I want to be able to see the "LongDesc" column values in the drop down on the combo box. When I make a selection, I want the text in the combo box to read the corresponding "ShortDesc" value.

I've got some code like the following. I want it so that when I chose an item in 'select 1' it changes the in the second combo box but I'm not sure of the best way to go about it. Does it have to be AJax or can it be done with just Javascript?

I have a few problems i need to solve. Firstly, I am looking for a piece of code i can use to display a picture from a bank of pictures. It will work on the basis of generating a random number and loading a picture that corresponds to that number.
i.e. Dim RandNumber As Integer
Dim RandClass As New Random
RandNumber = RandClass.next(1, 10)
If RandNumber = 1 Then
Picturebox1.image = picture1
[Code]...
Secondly, can I then use subsequent picture boxes to display pictures from the same bank of images, without displaying the same image? Finally, I then need to be able to click the picture or a button beneath the picture to select it as an answer to a question and then the whole process starts again.

I am familiar with getting a selected value from a combo box but what about if you wanted to get all the values from a combo box then store those values in an array or list. The combo box would be data bound to a source and have an ID as the value member. So How would I get all the values from the combo box.

View 3 RepliesI have a combo box that is tied to a binding source that loads a list of users from a table. Currently the list of users is a List of String object type. When a user selects one of the users from the drop down, a list is filtered down based on the selection. To do that I currently have to requery the User Table to grab the UserID column of the user selected, which seems a bit inefficient to me.
Is there a way that I can assign a custom object with two properties (UserName, UserID) and have only the User Name is displayed and when I have to filter the list, I already have the UserID, so there is no need to requery the database.

I am working with Vb.net and have a form with a combo Box. On load the form is loaded with one of the following details depending on what is stored in the database; Cancelled, Processed and Failed.
TxtColStage.Items.Add("Cancelled")
TxtColStage.Items.Add("Processed")
TxtColStage.Items.Add("Failed")
Then I have an update button and when the user drops down the list he/she can select between Cancelled/Processed/Failed. I want to be able to grey out or disable Processed and Failed, so that when the user updates the field he/she can ONLY update with the Cancelled option ONLY.

This is a 2 part question about list comparisons. I see lots of threads on comparing two separate lists, but I need to know how to compare values in a single list.
Part 1:I have a bunch of string values that I am first splitting and then adding to two separate lists. The strings look something like this... 3-ABC, 6-DEC, 11-RFG, 6-ABC, 12-ABC, etc... So, with the code below(vb) I am splitting the numerical portion of the string and putting it into myLeadQtys(saved for later). I then take the rest of the string and put it in another list (myLeadVals):
Dim myLeadVals As New List(Of String)
Dim myLeadQtys As New List(Of String)
Dim strMtextValue As String
