How To Get List Of Item To Show In Box

Sep 9, 2009

I am trying to select a list of names from a database table which I need to put into a dropdown list to select one or more of those to use for reporting criteria later on. This what I have so far:

If ConnectDatabase() = False Then
UCSMISDB.Open()
Else
Dim sqlStatement As New SqlClient.SqlCommand( _
"SELECT * FROM support_division", UCSMISDB)
Dim sqlResult As SqlClient.SqlDataReader = _
sqlStatement.ExecuteReader()
sqlResult.Read()
cbDivision = Division
Division = sqlResult.Read.ToString.ToCharArray()
End If

I do not get anything in my combobox, and if I make a few changes I sometimes get a True or False. How can I get the list of item to show in the box and then select more than one to save for re-use later?

Autocomplete List Does Not Show All Possible Completions With BindingSource.Item

Mar 7, 2011

I've got a BindingSource for a DataSet. I'm fairly new to this whole binding business and databases, and it took me hours to figure out how to use BindingSource to get to an item, because the Row method was not included in the autocomplete. Not to confuse anyone, here's some sample code:[code]The code runs perfectly and does exactly what I want. My problem is the following: When I've typed in source.Item(0)., autocomplete does not display Row in the list. Is this perhaps not the best way to do what I'm doing? Is there a reason it's hidden? Is this a good coding practice to do so? The fact that is wasn't there took me lots of time Googling, so I'm trying to figure out whether it's a Visual Studio glitch or my own.

Possible To Make List Box Item Height For Item Depending On Amount Of Lines That Item Contains?

Jan 1, 2012

I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

Get Selected Item Index Or A Sorted & Grouped List Relative To Item Source?

Feb 12, 2011

I'm having some difficulty with a sorted & grouped listbox in WPF vb.net 3.5 that has an items source bound to an ObservableCollection.

What I want to be able to do is to retrieve a piece of data from the ObservableCollection items source depending on what item in the listbox the user has selected.I've almost got it working but because the listbox is sorted it does not match the index of the items source.

[code]...

As I previously mentioned, because the lstBox is sorted and also grouped the index's don't match up.Does anyone know how I can get the correct information I want from the List Source depending on the selected item in the list box?

Oct 13, 2011

How someone would select an item from a list box and click a button and have that item go into another listbox with it's price? I seem to be stuck on this part.

Here's my code:

I want to select the first option from the first listbox and I want to put it into another listbox along with the price of that item on the same line in the listbox. I can't seem to figure out how to that.

Public Class Form1
Const dcmPRICE_STRESS As Decimal = CDec(595.0)
Const dcmPRICE_TIME_MANAGMENT As Decimal = 695

Add To A Combobox A List Of Item (not Every Item) In A Txt Located On A Server

Feb 13, 2011

my program downloads into a combobox every item(line) that is in a text file located on a server.
Every line in the text file ends with "a)" or with "g)".

Now I just want to make 3 radio buttons:

- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "g)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "a)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox of both (I already know how to do).

How can I do so?

To download the entire list in the combobox I do:

Dim List As String = client.DownloadString("http://mywebsite.com/mytextfile.txt)Dim lines As String() = List.Split(New String() {ControlChars.CrLf}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(lines)

Comparing An Item In A List Against Other Items In The Same List In .NET?

May 30, 2011

I have a List(Of MyObj), and I want to iterate through that list and compare each element to all other elements in the same list, excluding (if possible) the same element. I have a solution that works, but it's slow and uses double For loops. It may possibly have also summoned Cthulhu from his sleep. This below is a sanitized version of what I have:

Dim MyList As New List(Of MyObj)({Obj1, Obj2, Obj3, Obj4, Obj5, Obj6})
If MyList.Count > 0 Then
For i = 0 To (MyList.Count - 1) Step 1

Program That Will Compare Array Of Grocery List Items Glist And Array Of Coupon Item List

May 27, 2012

I have a program that will compare an array of grocery list items glist and an array of coupon item clist.When I compare the two and if there is a match somewhere in the array I want to have a picturebox visible.When there is no match, I want the picture box not to be visible. [code] The code seems to work great until I come to the else statement.When the code finds a match it displays the picture box and the msgbox without error, but as soon as the message box is cleared, even though i've input it as an ELSE statement, the picturebox goes false again.Does anyone have any idea of how I can "hold" the picturebox to stay visible while the match between the arrays exists?

Show Subitems Of A Parent Item In A Datagridview?

Feb 20, 2010

I have 1 table which has columns which include "parent" which says who the parent is if there is a parent, and "name" which has the name of the item. so for example

[Code]...

or something to that affect. the reason being that the user can do the autocomplete by typing a letter or a few letters, it will go to the parent and then they can use the enter key to move down 6 or so down at a time( if possible) or arrow to move 1 at a time down.

Is this possible in DGV or should I go use something else? I have seen this used in a program before but I do not know how it was implemented.
