I have a WinForms applciation, I wrote a function that returns a list of all the controls on the form. The function returns a list of control objects.My target is to fill up a combo box with a list of the control names so that once clicked I set focus to it.So what is the correct code for converting a List(Of Control) to an array of string.

View 5 RepliesHow do you use a parameterized query to make the (last_name, first_Name) appear in the same combo box? I know how do drag them over from the DATA SOURCES menu, but I am trying to combine them. So instead of it being two separate combo boxes with both last_name and first_name), it want it to find the the names with first and last name in the same combo box.

View 5 RepliesI am populating a combobox with a list of names that are coming from a database. I would like to get the names to show up in the combo box in alphabetical order. [code] There is also another combobox I'm populating with text from a database. (as below). However, in the database, in the column I'm reading data from, there are a few duplicate rows and then when the combobox is populated, the same text can be seen 2/3 times. What can I do or add to my existing code, that will ensure that there is no duplication shown in the combo box? [code]
View 3 RepliesI have 2 linked DB tables, Artists and Albums using ArtistID as the primary/foreign key.When I want to add a new Album, I have a new form open and I can fill a combobox with the list of Artists to choose from and edit all the details then save to the database.
However, when I want to edit the Album info, I can't seem to get the Artist associated with the Album, as well as all the rest of the Artists from that table, (in case I need to change the Artist associated with the Album).The information required comes from 2 linked tables, so that's where I'm getting lost.An example of this is when a person edits their profile on a webpage, for instance, a list of countries is usually listed in a combobox and the one selected is the country they selected when filling out the form previously, however, they still have the option to change it.
I am trying to populate a combobox with a list of filenames from a selected directory. I am getting the directory OK but the combobox instead of having a list of 8 files max shown when I select the combobox has a full list of all the files selected from that directory.

The remarked area works fine when I'm accessing a specific table. I've successfully inserted the products_model field into the combobox too. The datagridview does show the table names in the db using the SHOW TABLES sql statment, but I'm not understanding how to get this info into the combobox instead.

I am wondering if anyone has any idea how to make the controls stack and fill up the available space left by a control if the control is hidden or removed from the UltraGridBagLayoutPanel.
Example:
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 3]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
If I hide [Textbox 3] as of now, it will disperse the space left equally and pad the remaining text boxes with the space. However, I would like it to do this...
[Textbox 1]
[Textbox 2]
[Textbox 4]
[Textbox 5]
Where all the text boxes will move up and [Textbox 4] will completely consume the space left by [Textbox 3].

I am creating a form for entering technical data about a part into an Access database. In the same form I have several ComboBoxs that need to have their lists filled from the same reference table in my database. I have a number and unit field for the twist and bending radius properties. I made the unit fields ComboBoxes and I am trying to bind them to referance table in my database called UnitsLength. The relevant structure is as follows....
Form: NewPartForm
Database: CableDataSet
Main Table: PartMechanical - with fields: TwistNom, TwistUnits, BendingRadiusNom, BendingRadiusUnits
Reference Table: UnitsLength - with fields: Unit, Shorthand, Conversion Factor
First tired the following settings....
Data Source: Other Data Sources > NewPartForm List Instances > CableDatase
Display Member: UnitsLength.Shorthand
Value Member: UnitsLength.Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]
But the lists didn't populate.... Then I tried these settings
Data Source: UnitsLengthBindingSource
Display Member: Shorthand
Value Member: Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]
But now every ComboBox displays the same value but still stores the data in the proper field... it just sets them all the same.
