I have a comboBox that is populated with a dataset. The values are:
KG - Kilograms
LB - Pounds
and so on.
So when the user clicks the comboBox in the DropDown the user will see:
KG - Kilograms
LB - Pounds
and so on.

VB.NET Winforms Application... When a user starts typing in the search box of the application it automatically populates the name list dropdown box with the valid results and sets the droppeddown value to true... Everything is working fine except the fact that the user is forced to select a value from the name list or press the esc key because without doing so the mouse cursor just disappears and you have to move the mouse all the way outside the application for it to come back and it will only do so while outside the applicaiton.. Below is the code that I am using for this and it should be noted that I am using the droppeddown value else where in the application and none of those instances have an issue its only this one..
Private Sub u_lastName_Box_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles u_lastName_Box.TextChanged

I have a combo box that has a drop down list with long values in the drop down
Ex:
LB - Pounds
GR - Grams
When the user selects on of the values I want to just show the Abreviaqtions and not the descriptions. So when the drop down is shown it shows
LB - Pounds
GR - Grams
When the user selects "GR - Grams" from the drop down list "GR" is the only this shown in the combobox. I've tried TextChange,SelectedIndexChange and SelectedValueChange but I can't get them to work.
i need some help with this problem. i have seen some solutions but written in C and im not that good to convert from C to vb.net.Well i want to 'do something' when i mouse move at an item of the combobox dropdown list.like when i move the mouse over "jkl" make the button1.text = "jkl"when i move the mouse over "def" item make the button1.text = "def"
View 4 RepliesOk, so I have a listview on one form, and when a button is pressed it opens up a new form with the contents of the selected listview item and it's subitems in a series of textboxes. The user can then change the data in the textboxes and either press save to make the changes or cancel to close the window. What command would I use to change the selected listview item and subitems to whatever is in the boxes?
this is the code that populates the boxes:
Private Sub Form_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim appeditcontents As String = main.passlist.SelectedItems(0).ToString
[Code]....

View 4 RepliesSo, I need to be able to edit an item that has been selected in a listbox. I need to do so with a button click event. Theoretically, I know how to do this, because I know how to add an item, and how to remove one, and how to insert an item at a specific location.
'Dim strinput As String
'Dim Item As Object
'Dim index As Integer = lstList.Items.IndexOf(item)
'strinput = InputBox("Edit This Item")
'lstList.Items.RemoveAt(lstList.SelectedItem)
'lstList.Items.Insert(index, strinput)
however, this does not work at all. what am I doing wrong??
net/watin application and I am trying to select and item from a combobox on a client's website. I can use watin to drop the list down and select (highlite) an item from the list but the selected item will not populate the textbox above. It seems like watin's .select() is not triggering an event to fire.I can work around this by writing in the first letter of the item in the combobox and use the hypertext feature to select the item but this is not ideal.

View 5 RepliesSince we have to resize the combo box dropdown area based on the combo box item length, used the drawstring() to add items to combo based on the item length. This gave us the below issue: On moving the cursor on the drop down area the font color and the background color are back hence the text is not readable (i.e. the whole item becomes black).
Below piece of code is used to achieve this,
Private Sub cboClient_DrawItem(ByVal
sender As
Object,
ByVal e
As System.Windows.Forms.DrawItemEventArgs)

We tried changing font color and the dropdown area backcolor on selecting a particular item. How to make the text readable (i.e. the font color should change while if we scroll on the item).

View 3 RepliesI know the question is a little choppy and perhaps misleading,but I have a gridview with dropdownlists on the rows. I created an AddHandler and a Delegate for the SelectedIndexChanged and it gets to the sub. Here is the code for that:

Public Delegate Sub DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged)

I'm having some difficulty with a sorted & grouped listbox in WPF vb.net 3.5 that has an items source bound to an ObservableCollection.
What I want to be able to do is to retrieve a piece of data from the ObservableCollection items source depending on what item in the listbox the user has selected.I've almost got it working but because the listbox is sorted it does not match the index of the items source.
[code]...
As I previously mentioned, because the lstBox is sorted and also grouped the index's don't match up.Does anyone know how I can get the correct information I want from the List Source depending on the selected item in the list box?

my program downloads into a combobox every item(line) that is in a text file located on a server.
Every line in the text file ends with "a)" or with "g)".
Now I just want to make 3 radio buttons:
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "g)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "a)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox of both (I already know how to do).
How can I do so?
To download the entire list in the combobox I do:
Dim List As String = client.DownloadString("http://mywebsite.com/mytextfile.txt)Dim lines As String() = List.Split(New String() {ControlChars.CrLf}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(lines)
I am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.
For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.
I am having a problem with using a value from a selected item in combo box. While debugging using breakpoints I can see that the combo box is working fine. The problem is I need use the selected value of the text box in HeatTransmissionCoefficientforAsinglePipeCalculation function and while debugging I saw that ThermalResistanceofTheInsulation, ThermalResistanceOfTheCarrierPipe, ThermalResistanceofTheJacketPipe all have a value of 0 when this is not the case...
