Empty DataGridViews Can't Set A Font?

Dec 5, 2011

I wrote a program using VB.NET. When I run the executable, it displays a DataGridView that may (or may not) have rows in it. The user can enter data, or hit an Update button to fetch data from a database. (The grid is NOT being used as a DataSource.)The user can also set the font with another button: DataGridView1.font = "..."

If the grid DOES have rows in it, everything works as expected and the font is used in the grid.If the grid does NOT have rows in it, the font does NOT change. Even after the user hits Update, or types in data.He has to entirely exit the program, and rerun it to see the font actually change.

Question: How do I set the font on the grid, regardless of whether it:

Has rows.
Doesn't have rows.
Will have rows later.

I would think DataGridView1.font would ALWAYS change the font. No?

When And Where To Use DataGridViews

Mar 24, 2011

1) Do you typically allow Deletions, Additions, and Edits in a DataGridView?

2) Have you found any simple way to use combos in a DataGridView? (See edit below.)

3) What type of binding do you typically use on a DataGridView? Do you manually code it? Bind it to an custom BindingSource object?

I'm accustomed to programming in MS Access and I'm now working on learning VB.NET. In Access I typically use updateable DataSheet view bound forms but this doesn't allow me to separate my business logic and create a Data Access Layer. Now I'm trying to figure out how to have an updateable DataGridView in .NET together with separate layers for Business Logic and Data Access. So far I haven't really been able to make sense out the many things I'm reading about this.

I need my DataGridViews to be easily sortable, filterable, and allow up to 10,000 records to be displayed at one time. I've achieved this using ADO.Net with standard DataTables (all written in code) but all my business logic and Data Access is in the code behind my form.

Edit:I guess I was under the impression that ComboBoxes are really difficult to use in DataGridViews so that's why I had posted question #2 above. I think I need to research this a little more as it's probably not as difficult as I thought it was but it doesn't appear to be anywhere as simple as a combo in MS Access. However, I realize that MS Access has many other limitations that VB.NET does not have.

Capturing And Keeping RTB Font Values Via Font Dialog?

Jul 27, 2010

everything tests well but when I evoke the function the dialog values default to selections other than what the text was originally/last set to (e.g., color, font, size, etc. in the dialog/menu is not what is shown in my rich text box).how I can set the above values per the text being recalled in the RTB? That is, in the above scenario if I hit the cancel button I lose the original text formatting.

Private Sub FontDialog1_Apply(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FontDialog1.Apply
If Not RichTextBoxPrintCtrl1.SelectionFont Is Nothing Then

C# - Nest Databound DataGridViews In .NET?

Mar 21, 2011

I think I already know the answer to this, but I figured it would not hurt to ask.

Is there any possible way to nest Databound DataGridViews in .NET? What I would like to have happen is for each row in the DataGridView to have a button to expand, which would then give me a DataGridView underneath that. I would like this nested DataGridView to also be able to do this, so I could go n levels deep with them.

Is this possible with the .NET Winforms standard DataGridView? (Or another standard .NET control?) I have seen people reference some third party controls, however they are really expensive, and I don't really want to go that route.

VS 2008 DataGridViews And Validations?

Aug 30, 2011

I have 2 forms (form1 and form2). I'm passing 2 numbers from form2 to form1 (see image/attachment). I want to make sure that 1 of those 2 numbers (passed from form2) aren't the same as any number on form1 in column2. For example, if I were to pass the numbers "2, and 3", the program should give an error saying, there is already 3 in column2. It doesn't matter if the first number (in column1) is the same, but the second number should NOT be a duplicate of any number in column2.

VS 2008 Datasets And Datagridviews?

May 23, 2010

I am novice at best with VB. I have a dataset built from a complex query. Well I have a lot more items in the dataset than I wish to show in a datagridview. Some items will be used for other purposes at the time, filling txt boxes, dropdowns, etc...all independent of the dgv. I am lost at how to fill just a 3 or 4 of the items rather than just filling the entire thing. So, instead of just filling the entire ds into the grid, how would I fill in selected columns into the datagrid that has specifically named columns at runtime?

Datagridviews - Sort The Scores By Greatest Value To Least Value

Mar 12, 2011

I have a datagridview with two columns; one named Names the other named Scores. This is my code so far Dim hScore As String() = New String() {strName, lblPercent.Text}

[Code]....

What I want it to do is sort the scores by greatest value to least value, but the problem I'm having is that the scores are stored as strings so they are being read and sorted from left to right. My question is, how do I store the scores in a numeric array and place them in the same row as the name, but in the second column? The names and scores only need to be stored as long as the program is running so I don't want to add anything to the registry or create new files to store them.

Master / Detail DataGridViews On Form

Jan 5, 2009

I have 2 datagridviews on my form. One lists products and when you click on a product in the first datagridview the other lists tests for the selected product. I have a products table with a productid,productname and productcode. I have a tests table with a testid and a testname and I have a prodtests table with a prodtestid, productid, testid and a few other fields.

Public Class frmProducts
Dim myConstr As String
Private WithEvents ProductBindingSource As New BindingSource
Private WithEvents TestBindingSource As New BindingSource
Private Sub frmProducts_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code] .....

Also I need to add a combobox column to the second datagridview that is bound to my prodtests table and to list the testnames from the test table in a combobox. In my save button, should I just call both adapter.update methods to save all changes. I will add the appropriate update commands etc.

Multiple Datagridviews Cells Being Selected?

Feb 16, 2012

VB 2010 form has 1 panel, 1 DGV in the panel, 1 TabControl with 3 tabs in the panel each tab has a DGV all 4 bound to the same DataSet through code.

I have a form that has multiple Datagridviews on it, 1 in the main portion of a panel and the other 3 in a tabcontrol. If I click on cell 0,4 of DGV1 cell 0,4 of DGV2 is also "hilighted" and the same goes in the reverse order. If I click on cell 1,4 in DGV 1, cell 0,1 is hilighted in DGV2 (basically it stays with the last selected col and what ever row for that DGV).

This isn't the functionality I'm really looking for here, when I single click or change cells on any of the DGV's I don't want any of the others doing anything.

As you can see there are 2 cells selected this was created by a single click in the 4th cell of Param0

VS 2008 Columns In 2 DataGridViews On Same Form Cannot Have Same Name?

Jun 26, 2009

I discovered a problem in C# (boo hiss!!!) but it applies to VB.NET as well.I decided to build a little app to load info from some audio files using Taglib-sharp (nice little thing it is!) and create a Winamp playlist from the loaded files. (I know it's lame, don't laugh! I just wanted to learn some C#!)I have a form with 2 DataGridViews. I load the first dgv with some tag info from the selected files. I then move those files from 1 grid to the other, shuffling their positions along the way.The annoyance I found is during form design. If I try and name a column in the second DGV the same as in the first (eg. "Filename") I get an error that says the name is already in use by another component.To me this is not right. The column is part of a separate object, shouldn't this mean that "Filename" in object1 isn't the same as "Filename" in object2? I even have to refer to the specific object to get the column's value in a row. [code] to access the column's value in the first row of dgvMine or dgvOther, then why does the darn designer care if "Filename" exists in dgvMine and also in dgvOther? Shouldn't they be separate declarations "within" each of dgvMine and dgvOther?
