Forms :: Binding Combobox To Generic List?

Sep 13, 2010

What I would like to do is bind a combobox to my own object which is as follows:

Public Class Categories
Public Sub New(ByVal myConn As SqlConnection)
Dim myConnection As SqlConnection = myConn
myConnection.Open()

[code]....

(I have put breakpoints and I know this object has data.)So on my form how do I bind my combobox to this object? The code I have is below:

Dim bs As New BindingSource
bs.DataSource = New Inventory.Categories(myconn)
cboCategory.DataSource = bs
cboCategory.DisplayMember = "Description"
cboCategory.ValueMember = "CategoryID"

but it returns the following error: Cannot bind to the new display member. Parameter name: newDisplayMember

Bind Generic List Data To Combobox?

Jan 21, 2011

Please forgive, I'm new to Silverlight and am still trying to wrap my head around data binding...

I have a generic list obtained from a class using LINQ. The list has 4 objects, each object consisting of a Letter property (string - A, B, C and D) and a corresponding Number property (integer - 1, 2, 3, and 4).

In Silverlight, I have a combobox control and a text block. I'm trying to figure out how to:

Bind the combobox to the generic list so that the letters populate the combobox.When the user selects a letter in the combobox (say C), the corresponding integer value (3 for this example) is displayed in the text block.

Forms :: Binding Foreign Key To Combobox

Feb 24, 2010

[code...]

On my first form, I have a combobox that is bound to the Locations table and displays all the different locations. Once a location is selected, a 2nd form is loaded which has textboxes which are also bound to the Locations table and are populated with the corresponding data.

Here's my issue: on the 2nd form, I have combobox that is bound to the Offices table. Currently, when this form loads all the available offices, displaying with the first office in the list. I need it to populate with the correct office based on the selection made on the combobox on the first form. I guess what I'm asking is, how does one bind a combobox to a foreign key b/c it is the foreign key, office_refnbr, from the Locations table that needs to display in the Office combobox.

I've tried a variety of bindings, including:[code...]

Data Binding - Databinding A List (in An Object) To A Combobox In .net?

Jan 11, 2010

VB 2008 .NET 3.5. I have a custom "Shipment" object that contains a list of "ShippingRate" objects. This list of "ShippingRates" is accessible through a property "Shipment.PossibleShippingRates." That property simply returns a copy of the list of "ShippingRate" for that particular Shipment.

My UI layer receives a list of "Shipment" objects from the BLL. This list is databound to a datagridview, and shows details relevant to the Shipment such as Shipping Address, etc.

I want to bind the "Shipment.PossibleShippingRates" property to a combobox, such that when the user changes the grid row, the combobox reflects the "PossibleShippingRates" for that "Shipment."

In addition, I need a way to store the "ShippingRate" they selected from the combobox for later use.

I have tried a few ideas, but none of them work properly.

.net - Creating A Generic List Of A Generic Type

Jun 30, 2011

I am trying to create a list of a generic type in vb.net 2.0 framework.
This is the generic type definition:

Public Class GenericParamMap(Of T)
Public Sub New(ByVal pParamName As String, ByVal pPropValue As T)
mParamName = pParamName

[Code]....

The compiler does not allow a "T" in the method's parameter because it's not defined, but I'm not sure how or where to define it. I thought it was okay to have a generic method definition.

Forms :: Drop-down List Combobox?

Mar 23, 2010

I have created a drop-down list box that holds 8 numbers representing a month span (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25 months). In order to prevent users from typing just anything into the text box above the combo box, I changed it to a drop-down listbox. The other requirement that I was hoping to implement was for the user to be able to type a number, after which the selection would jump to the appropriate item (i.e. the user types in '1', and the selection jumps to 12). This partially works. It will jump to 12, for example, but immediately after the user types the '1', the Selected Index event changes. The user cannot scroll down or up after typing in a number.

Determine If Property Is Generic List<of T> Via Reflection And Loop List Items

Oct 1, 2009

I'm looping all the properties in an object via reflection:

For Each p As PropertyInfo In values.[GetType]().GetProperties()
If p.CanRead Then
'Do stuff
End If
Next

how to determine whether the property in question is a generic List(Of T)? If it is I need to loop the list itself.

I've experimented with GetType and TypeOf but have not managed to get anything working.

To clarify, I want to keep this generic. I do not want to specify the type of T, I need to loop the list items and call the ToString method on each item. T could be one of a number of different types (application specific reference types). Is it possible to do this without specifying types?

.net - Sort Generic List Based Upon A Different List?

Oct 29, 2010

What would be the fastest way to sort a list that contains a list of objects, based upon another list? An example follows:Say I have multiple lists of employees. Each individual list has a common property value, say "Department". So I have a list of employees, in one list they all have the department string value of "Sales". In another list all the objects have a department value of "Finance". These lists of employees are then contained in a list which holds them all.

I have a second list, which should drives the sort order of the employee lists. The second list simply contains a list of strings like, "Finance", "Sales", "IT" and so on. I'd like my lists of customers to be sorted in the order of "Finance", "Sales", etc.I'm using VB.NET in .NET 2.0
