Dropdown List Box Goes As Wide As Needed Even With Width Set?
Nov 21, 2011
I have a dropdown list box that displays data from my database. Problem is that some records are quite long so the width of the dropdown box extends past the side of my screen. I have a reasonible width set but it is not stopping the dropdown box from getting as wide as it needs to display each record. How can I set a fixed width on this?
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1Usage" DataTextField="data_text"
DataValueField="ID" Width="280px">
</asp:DropDownList>her

I have a drawing program written in VB6 that is capable of printing very thin lines to a laser printer. In VB .net, even though the pen width is set to 1, the thinnest lines are way too "thick". The equivalent line width in VB .net using a pen width of 1 is about the same as the DrawWidth = 4 in VB6. So, my question is, how can I print very thin lines to a laser printer in VB .net?

In VB.NET for the combo box, I have set the autocomplete mode to "SuggestAppend" and autocomplete source to "ListItems". Its working as expected. But the width of the autosuggest dropdown box is not same as that of combo box and so it looks weird.I tried changing the value dropdown width property but it changes the value of normal dropdown box (seen after clicking down arrow on combobox), and not the autosuggest dropdown box.So what code or property needs to be set to make autosuggest dropdown box the same width as that of combobox width?

I'm trying to open a tool window as a child and although I can set the width to something like 50px wide in the ide, when it opens up its 125px wide. What is there to opening a widow with out much width am I missing.I have turned off the maximize and minimize gadgets and even the whole drag bar. When they open up when I run they are fat again. Looking for something like the tool window in paint.net.

So in winforms, every dropdown combobox has this little arrow thingy to the right that tells the user it's a dropdown, kinda like this:Now how do I figure out how wide that is in pixels? Reason is, I'm using ControlDrawToBitmap, this doesn't draw the text properly for the combo boxes, and I can redraw the contents, I just whack some of the arrows (which are drawn properly).

II am trying to create a toggle button that switches a list to a range and then back to a list if needed. I am able to get it to do both but when I add an item to the list, convert to a range and then convert back to a list it leaves off the last items I entered.I tried to work in a code to select all cells but I must not be putting it in the right place.This is what I have so far:
ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(xlSrcRange, Range("$A$3:$AE$7"), , xlYes).Name = _
"List1"
I realize the problem is the $AE$7 (the $A$3 is correct)

I would like my gridview to be filtered by the dropdown list I have. It is pulling specific information from the database, so when you choose a value from the dropdown list, it should search through all the records and find only records with the ddl value in them.
The code that I am using in the codebehind for the SelectedIndexChanged is not right though. I get an error message saying 'Value' is not a member of 'Integer'. This is on the line dsCompanyFilter.SelectParameters.Add
It probably has something to do with the gridview not tying to the dropdown list properly, but I am not sure how to fix that code.
<asp:Content ID="Content2" ContentPlaceHolderID="body" Runat="Server"><br /><br /><br />
<asp:linkbutton id="btnAll" runat="server" text="ALL" onclick="btnAll_Click" />

I have a dropdownlist that I want to populate with a specific value and specific text. I'm not using a datasource but I am manually making a connection and retrieving data in code. How can I populate this dropdownlist? If I read the data with a datareader and increment an array I only get either the value or the text. This is what I have so far, but it is completely wrong:
//connection string etc goes here
Dbcmd2.CommandText = "select dept,deptname from table"
Dim dr As SqlClient.SqlDataReader[code]....
How can I get this to work without having to create a class object for Department? Is there anyway or should I create the class object?
