I have controls on a form, bound to an SQL data source. The information populates the control well. When I change the text in a bound textbox, I want it to be reflected in the SQL database. When I change the text in the control, the DataSet is updated. Now I need to make the DataSet update the SQL table.
what I want to achive is to have a centralized control of my data-forms from my toolbars (toolstrip), like navigating (PREV-NEXT), SAVE, DELETE, CANCLE and so on instead of having it in every form. it worked beautifully in my VB6 projects. below are the codes i did in .NET and it don't seem to work and I guessed it about my use of late binding in .NET.
This is what I have done that don't seem to work. In my project module, frm is declared Public as form object Public frm as system.windows.form().form
Im my childforms i want as soon as the forms are load, activated or have focus, should instantiate or create the form object in my frm. [Code] while in my menu or main form (parent form) with toolstrip buttons, this actually where all individual forms are called. [Code]
and it's flagging an error there: frm.CloseForm is not a member of System.Windows.Forms().Form
and I must say here that I declared all the subs im calling in the childforms PUBLIC, and of-course frm being a late binding type may not have all the Public Method on it.
I am upgrading my application from vb6 to vb.net.I used to populate my data in datalist control in vb6 forms. I am not finding it in vb.net windows form application. Which one control is the equivalent to it?
How can i list my data in that control?
just like: I had a table with data like id, name
I want the name should be the displayed column and id the bound column? how can i do that
I started programming in VB2008 couple of weeks ago (I'm using the express version) and I'm getting stumped by this ridiculously simple problem. I am trying to retrieve varying parameters from an external application and display their values in real time on a windows form control e.g. a label or text box. I already know what class and methods to reference for that, however I can only display instantaneous values (unless I use a .click event handler, but thats foolish I want them displayed without my intervention) I tried writing a loop in form load event handler but that prevents the form from loading. I also tried a loop in another module but that doesn't work either.
I found the same thread but it has never been answered. So I better to post a new one.
The problem is I added a new column in my table, I have a dataset linked to that table and a source of data of my datagridview.
Now, when I'm going to add a new column into my datagridview, I didn't find the new column which I added recently. Seems that the binding source is not updating whenever an update takes place.
I have a DetailsView Control but need help with binding, updating and inserting hookup. My code below does not bind and open my DetailsView as I expect it to (either in Edit or insert mode when my page loads.[code]
there is a tab control system. It relies on only five text boxes, and their bindings change when the tab is changed The relevant information is displayed. However, if I navigate to a different record...You can see that the same information is displayed in the tab control text boxes, and not the employee's details I just selected in the data grid or the navigation. How can I fix this? I'm not sure what's gone wrong here. Here's the code that changes the text boxes upon changing tab...
Private Sub TabCheck() If TabState = 1 Then pnlTabs.BackgroundImage = My.Resources.tabs1
I'm working on a website where we'll be getting a lot of videos to be uploaded. To keep things simple and secure, I'm just writing VB.net windows app to suck all the files in a directory in, allow you to set some options, and start the encode by spawning a new FFMpeg process.
If I load a datatable, and then set a listbox properties pointing to it, I get the right data, e.g.:
[code]...
I get System.Data.DataRowView instead of my actual data.I don't understand how the databinding is actual happening, and how I refresh my the data in the control when the data changes.
I have two forms with a label on each form. Both labels are bound to the same tbl/fld in a database. When I run program and use binding navigator to scroll thru the data on form 1, I want the form 2 label positioned at the same point when it is shown.
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...]
I have a list box which is containning diffrent groups from database. On the form i have multiple controls like checkboxes, text boxes and so on. Wht i have to do when some one selects a entry from list box the others controsl should be populated from that value. User can edit the data , delete the data and so on.
I use the binding navigator in my application, but when the resolution of the display gets to small and I have to use the scrollbars, then I get a problem. The scrollbars automatically scrolls down below the navigator bar instead of showing it when the window loads. I figured it out using focus or select. it now loads on top,but then I got a second problem.When I press on my tab-control it "autoscrolls" down again and puts the tab-control as the first visible thing on the screen instead of the navigation bar. How can I prevent that?
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
I have a windows form that I bind to a datatable via a binding source. The binding is done in code at run time. Eg;Me.txtCode.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", bsForm, "ToolCode", True)) (bsForm is the binding source)This works well except if the form control is hidden (I have a couple controls on the form that hold Record ID and Version numbers that the user doesn't need to see). Databinding doesn't seem to work reliably for hidden controls.
it's about object binding, yes it's just a simple binding. but i don't know why it won't work.for summary, i will write about what i am doing:
1. i have one solution, and have two project in it. WaitressDataWin and WaitressDataObject
2. inside WaitressDataWin, i have 'waitressdata.vb' . this is my simple form , there are some basic textbox (waitress name, address, phone)
3. inside WaitressDataObject, i have 'waitressDataObj.vb' is where i put my object class, i have WaitressName property, WaitressAddress, and Phone.one of my property is like this, others are same except the name of course.
Private _WaitressName As String ''' <summary> ''' Gets or sets the Waitress Name[code]....
4. i create data source , that is object data source. i add reference so i can add my second project which is WaitressDataObject and set the WaitressDataObj as the data source.now i have datasource with three properties (WaitressName, WaitressAddress, Phone)
5. I bind my textbox, by dragging the WaitressName (in datasource) to my waitressname textbox .. so on to all my properties.., i also get bindingsourcecomponent, WaitressDataObjectBindingSource
6. then I put this code to my form load :
dim wdm = new WaitressDataObj Me.WaitressDataObjectBindingSource.DataSource = wdm
7. done, it should've been worked, but it didn't , i don't know why.. , every time i fill one of my textbox, the properties didn't set the value, i put breakpoint in the 'set' part of all my properties but it never breaks anyway.. (the 'get' part is good, it read my property value when i load the form). so i just had problem in my 'SET' Part.
8. I think i had checked on my variable (word, case sensitive,etc), no problem.
I have an ArrayList that are separated by the pipe: colA | colB | colC | colD How can I bind that array into separate columns in a datagrid each with their own column header?
This is the contents of the text file:[code]I have a combo box on a form and I want to bind some of the data from the text file, the stuff highlighted in bold, to the combo box.
I've created a custom control which consists of two radio buttons with their appearance set to "Button". This control is meant to act like two toggle buttons with an "On" toggle button and an "Off" toggle button. I have a public boolean property "isAOn" which is used to set the state of both buttons and I want to be able to bind this property to boolean values. I have imported the component model and set Now when I add this to a form for a boolean value in one of my classes it doesn't seem to update the boolean value of the class when I change the button pressed.
Here is the code:
Imports System.ComponentModel ''# <DefaultBindingProperty("isAOn")> _ Public Class ToggleButtons
I have a MenuItem of a context menu of a Grid and its IsEnabled property is bound to MyProperty. It works fine until I actually click on the event handler of the MenuItem, which has no code in it. After I have clicked on the MenuItem the dataBinding no longer works.
I can tell cos' my breakpoint in the getter of MyProperty does not get hit.
I am creating a form in VB to enter customer sales invoices and need to update two tables i.e. InvoiceHeader and InoviceDetails. The Invoice details can have more than one line for one Invoice header. I was wondering if there is any thing like Access subforms or how can I update both tables through an SQL statement.
I am getting Error while updating the sting array Settings() which is Declared as Global. I am getting Array IndexOutofBound exception in runtime, what is the error in the code?
I have added a SQL Server datasource through the wizard. I created my forms which were bound to the dataset. Is it possible to change the datasource and dataset names while updating the dataset the binding controls of the form?
For instance, Server 1 has DB1 and Server 2 has DB2 (DB1 & DB2 store the same information/tables). Is it possible to keep the forms and only update the binding information if I want the forms to use DB2?
First: I have a numericUpDown and a class that are bound.
Me.percent.DataBindings.Clear()Me.percent.DataBindings.Add("Value", options, "percent")When I change the numericUpDown the underlying class seems not to update. I have to click outside the numericUpDown to force validation and force syncing. This is very counterintuitive and will cause problems. How can I make sure the underlying data object gets the new value on valuechange rather than validate?
Second: After I change the numericUpDown I have an option that serializes the underlying data in an xml file. The underlying XML file does not always get the right data. To figure out what is happening I added a button that outputs the values of the underlying data object and it is always getting updated. In other words...the control and the object values always agree. The serialize
What is the best way to bind a property to a control so that when the property value is changed, the control's bound property changes with it.So if I have a property "FirstName" which I want to bind to a textbox "txtFirstName" text value. If I change FirstName to "Stack" the txtFirstName.Text also changes to "Stack".
