View 2 RepliesI'm using VS 2010 professional and the basic programming language. I have an access database which is pretty simple. I have 1 table named Cards which have 4 feilds Question, Answer, Topic, and Source. I've got two other table which hold the lookup values for Topic and Source.On the Form I've got 2 bound listboxes for Topic and Source. I want to populate a third list box with the Question and Answer based on the records in table cards who's Topic and Source feilds match the selected items in the other 2 listboxes.
View 3 RepliesI currently have a massive list of names and want to narrow it down via a filter from a listbox. I honestly am new enough that a datagridview is beyond me and something I want to tackle eventually, but this is the last thing I need to roll out the project and just want to finish it.So I am running the contents of the textbox through an if statement and populating a new LB based on the results:

In vb2010 I started getting an error message because I was still using FileListBoxes from VB6 and now they supposedly aren't supported in 64 bit systems. So I am replacing those with ListBoxes. I got the images to load fine into the list box using the FolderBrowserDialog. but (see the snippet below), I want to filter for several image types, not just one or a generic wild card which would pull in even non-image filetypes. This language will only accept one extension wildcard parameter it seems:
(sp is a string containing the folderbrowser dialogue path)

I am trying to filter a ListBox based on the presence of a string. Basically, if there is a ListItem that doesn't contain the string then I want to remove all ListItems that do contain the string. Here is what I have tried:

If Item.Text.IndexOf("W:") = -1 Then

"my site" = Works
"My Site" = Does not work[code]........

The issue is in the last line. ID_Part is an Int64 data type filters(0) is a string so the system returns a "Can't perform 'Like' operation on System.Int64 and System.String" error message.As you can see I tried converting the data type, but that failed since it is encased in String.Format()- it's going to be a string no matter what, I suppose.It's almost 1:00 a.m. so I'm not firing on all cylinders.

If I set a ListBox.Height = ListBox.PreferredHeight when the control is hidden and IntegralHeight = True, then set it visible:
a) Actual Height reduces by typically 3-5 pixels after redraw (but not 1 pixel per item).
b) PreferredHeight does not not appear to give the correct integral of item heights.
Is there a way to make ListBox calculate the correct integral Height before the ListBox is made visible, so it can be correctly pre-positioned from bottom edge?
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
ListBox1.Visible = False

I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.
View 5 RepliesThe scrollbar that comes with the ListBox is too small for touch screens, so I use my own scrollbar instead. But when you do this on various forms you end up repeating a lot of code. So my solution was to create a custom scollbar that has a property I can set to the control I want it to be a scrollbar for. In vb6, I can use the withevents keyword to get access to the control's events so that all the scrollbar related code can be in the custom scrollbar object I created, except...I had to create a refresh method for the consuming code to use to let the scrollbar know when the number of items changes. The scrollbar doesn't need to be told how many items there are because it has access to the control, but for a listbox there is no event to tie into when an item is added/removed so not 100% of the scrollbar related code could be encapsulated.
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to select an item in one listbox and then display the data of another listbox with the same indexed position? I am planning a project and this is something I would like to attempt but I haven't figured out how to do it.[code..]

I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition and I am trying to set a listbox so it starts to scroll when it hits the middle point of what is viewable on my list. I also want to set it so the list is always visible so you when you reach the bottom of the list you can scroll down to the bottom but if you scroll back up once it reaches that middle point it will start to scroll up again.

I am having problems with copying from one listbox to another and keeping the paths of the files in the listbox's. At the moment i have two listbox's, listbox1 shows the list of files without the directory paths showing. Listbox2 is used to add items from listbox1 which work ok but what i need is to be able to preserve the directory paths to each file. how to do this and have searched high and low for a solution without any luck.
I have worked out one way of doing it but i think there is a better way of doing it as the reverse does not seem to work. So basicly i want listbox1 to list the files without the paths and pass it on to listbox2 so that the files can be copied to temp directory as they are being add to listbox2.
Below is my
