Filter ComboBoxes DataSource Based On Another ComboBoxes Changes?
Oct 28, 2011
I have a form with 4 comboboxes and a button. The first combobox is enabled, but the rest of the controls are disabled. When the form is opened I fill the first combobox (cbxMethod) with a datatable. When the user selects something in cbxMethod the next combobox (cbxStudy) will be filled and so on. When the last combobox (cbxAnalyte) has a selected value I want to enable the button and give it focus so the user can move forward with the program. I basically want to force the user to move from one combobox to the other, until all are filled.I am currently using the SelectionValueChange event, but this event only fires when the user changes the value with their mouse or hits the Enter key, not when the user hits the Tab key.

this is a subset of a previously posted problem, I have narrowed down my issue and am reposting a question from this thread: [URL] I have apparently confused the compiler by renaming some comboboxes in Visual Basic .net express? (See relevant code below) I think the confusion is in who should handle what, with two routines named with variations of ComboBox1 and one handling the other ( it confuses me just trying to interpret it mentally):

I use single column datatables in combination with the .DisplayMember and .DataSource property to populate comboboxes. Data for these datatables I get from a MySQL database. All this is working fine, but I noticed some behavior for which I can't find an explanation, and am not sure of if it can be prevented somehow.Some of the datatables are used for different comboboxes on different tabs. The behavior found is that with comboboxes that have the same datatable as datasource. If I select an item in 1 combobox, the others automatically select the same item.
-Is this normal, because I couldn't find any documentation on this behavior?
-Can it be prevented, and if so how?
I could use a for next loop and manually add each item to the combobox, but using .DataSource is so much cleaner and more efficient.

I have two combo boxesthat use the same collection for their datasource. The data member and value member are also the same properties. When the form loads, and I select an item in one of the combo boxes, the same item is then selected in the other combo box. I want the combo boxes to work separately. Do I need to have two different collections, even though they would have the same data in them?
cboInboardKnife.DataSource = cKnives
cboInboardKnife.DisplayMember =
"Name"
cboInboardKnife.ValueMember =
"ToolID"
cboOutboardKnife.DataSource = cKnives
cboOutboardKnife.DisplayMember =
"Name"
cboOutboardKnife.ValueMember =
"ToolID"

I want to maintain a list of potential ComboBox values over multiple executions of my program, and to use that list as the DataSource on multiple ComboBoxes. I also want changes made to the DataSource to propagate over all of the ComboBoxes already existing in the application.
Can someone recommend what type of object I should use as my DataSource, as My.Settings objects don't seem to support generic list objects.
Also, along with that recommendation, can I also ask for suggestions as to how to propagate the updates of the collection to all ComboBoxes? I would imagine I need a collection type which raises events when its contents change, but I can't think of any, and in any case do not know which are compatible with My.Settings.

I was just writing a windows application that populates three comboboxes from the same datasource. My datasource is a datatable. The way i populate the comboboxes is by repeating the following code for each of the comboboxes:
'populate 1st combobox
cbx1.DataSource = table
cbx1.DisplayMember = "someColumn"
cbx1.ValueMember = "anotherColumn"
cbx1.SelectedIndex = Indx
[CODE]...
When the application is run, and I select an item from the dropdown list of, say, cbx1, my choice is reflected in cbx2 and cbx3 as well. I find this behaviour strange and will be grateful if anybody could explain what is going on here behind the scenes. On a side note, I've been able to circumvent this problem by modifying my code as shown below, but would still like to have an explanation for this seemingly strange behaviour.
'populate 1st combobox
Dim t1 as datatable = table.Copy
cbx1.DataSource = t1
cbx1.DisplayMember = "someColumn"
cbx1.ValueMember = "anotherColumn"
cbx1.SelectedIndex = Indx

This post is a continuation of my other post concerning 'List(of) with multiple comboboxes refill problem.'. I threw the list overboard and began anew with a Dataview.
So far I (finally) managed to get 2 comboboxes (will be more, but if it works for 2...) loaded with the same data using different dataviews (DataView1 & DataView2) so I can select a value from each combobox without the other following the selection.
But now I want to filter out the selected value from the other combobox.
This also works.
The only thing is this: If I select in combobox1 the value 3, and select in combobox2 the value 4, combobox1 will change to the value 2.
If I select in combobox1 the value 2, and select in combobox2 the value 1, combobox1 will change to the value 3.
It works also the other way arround. I can't seem to get my hands around the problem..
Does somehow the index of the items in the combobox play's part? I don't use the selectedIndex, so from my point of view it can't be..
The code I use:
(with the item 0 as 'neutral' option)

I would like to bind a DataGridView to a different LINQ query every time (in order to reuse the same form/DGV for different queries), like this:

but the "Qry", and the number of comboboxes, and their field names would change every time.

I have 5 combo boxes all connected to a database by datasets.
The user should be able to select different items but for some reason when one combobox item is selected, the same item becomes selected for every combobox.
I haven't coded anything regarding the cbx's so why is it doing this?

I have two comboboxes the first one is for order #, the second one is for the amount of order payments, there could be 1, 2, 3... payments for this order. I would like to get all payments to show in the second combobox that relate to the order # selected in the first, process that payment by changing other values in other textbox's. Then have that payment psoted as processed back to the DB table. I have a binding satament, but it pulls all payments, and not just per order. How can I get this to select just by order #?

I've been working on a VB project where I use a 1st drop down list to select a movie category and then in the 2nd drop menu, movies from that category will be displayed. The movies are stored in a 2-dimensional array by category. I've been able to edit my array but I'm having problems with my .AddRange() function. What would I have to put in those parentheses for the list (for each category) to appear in my 2nd combobox when the category is selected?

I bind the two comboboxes with table. One combo contains product and another contains subproduct. When I clicked first combobox then subproduct of that is filtered in another combo. When I clicked next,previous, it is working properly. But when I go to last record second combo is refreshed means it is not showing proper subproduct. Given the code on 1st combo_selectedIndexChanged. When I go to last record the SelectedIndexChanged event occur.thats why it is not show me last record proper.
Private Sub frmType_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
cmd = New SqlCommand("select makeName from Make where status='Add' or status='Edit'")
dt1 = New DataTable
dt1 = ob.getDataTable(cmd)
cmbMakeName.DataSource = dt1

I have a combo box on a form, it has a large number of values in it (about 40000). When the combo box populates it flickers from invisible to visible for about a second.After investigating this I am sure that it is not the call to the database that is causing this but when the combo is drawn.

I have been setting DataSource for a series of combo boxes to the same table as they all display the same options. However, when I ran the project, any change in any one combo box makes all the others 'flip' to the same selected value. This is obviously wrong.
In Access, you have 'Control Source' which is the db field that is bound to the combo box and 'Row Source' can be a query or whatnot that several combo boxes can run 'independently'.Is there an equivalent option in VB.NET? I DO NOT want to manually enter the exact same options many times as that is hard to maintain, to say the least.
Just to repeat: it is not going to work to say DataSource = Row Source. if two combo boxes are set to the same data source, a selection in one automatically makes the other one select the same value. unless, of course, i am missing something.

unfortunately searching the web i cannot find a decent example that allows me to loop through a winform to make sure comboboxes items are selected.basically what i would like to do is check the form if the comboboxes have been selected if not then highlight them yellow and set the focus on them.

I have a vb.net window app that has a number of combo boxes on it. These are being populated from a number of XML files and all this works like a charm. The problem i have is when it comes to putting the comboboxes in a datagridview. I have set up my columns and have set the first column to be a combobox but i'm having problems referencing this so that i can set the datasource to populate it.
I've looked everywhere but cant seem to find how to reference this control. Once this has been selected it will populate a second combo box based on the data from the first. I think i can sort this out, if i could only work out how to set the datasource of the first combo programatically.
