IDE :: DataGridView : Convert A Specific Column To Proper Or Title Case
Oct 2, 2009
how to convert a string that is entered in a column to proper or title case. For example, user enters "now is the time". Code will capitalize the first letter of each word "Now Is The Time". In VBA I would execute the following code in the afterupdate event: me.fieldname = strconv(me.fieldname, vbProperCase).
If I use code such as NewName = StrConv(OrigName, vbProperCase) to convert names to proper case, i.e. with initial capitals, I get unwanted results with Irish names like the following:
O'neill instead of O'Neill O'grady instead of O'Grady
Iv've always done a loop like below to go through each row of my DataGridView..For Each row As DataGridViewRow In DataGridView1.Rows....Is there a way to specif a specific row and column that i want to get data from? I tried this below but didnt work
MessageBox.Show(dataGridView1.Rows[1].Cells[0].value) and MessageBox.Show(dataGridView1[0, 1].Value)
So I have a datagridview being populated with data from a database.At this point a user may or may not selected (via mouse click / key press) one or more rows within the datagridview.I need to (upon selection) create a new dataset, datatable and add rows with the some data from the said datagridview.
For example, if a table had nothing but names, e.g.
Joe Sean Larry Chris
Upon the user clicking, dragging a selection over Sean and Larry to add those names to a new dataset so I can pass it to another method for further processing.

Input array is longer than the number of columns in this table.It looks like I'm either missing a column declaration or adding the table to the set?
I am using a list<of T> as a data source for a datagridview and would like to handle the draw event of the datagridview to evaluate the string length of the column cell. If larger than a particular number then I would just do something like
cell.value = string.substring(0,(whatever number I need it to be)).
I am doing work on a new logging database that I have decided to use UTC datetime to store all datetime values since our company spans timezones and multiple sources and timezones are logging events.However the problem that I cannot get my head around is formatting the datetimes in my datagridview for my user application.Our applications use mostly LINQ to SQL to manipulate our data from generic SQL CRUD calls, so I am hoping I can mask/format the DGV to get the conversion or some LINQ function rather than having to write special SQL stored procedures to do it every time I need to display the data.. (I have found multiple sources that explain how to do that)
I am fixing up a visual basic program using visual studio 2005, specifically in visual basic. I am currently attempting to format the datagridview used to display data from a database. The values from the database being displayed are a mix of integers (used for displaying information such as number of units sold) and floating point values (used to display revenue, etc). I need to format all the values to display as integers (by simply truncating the decimal places, not rounding) as all (including the values that should already be integers which are appearing with two 0s following the decimal place). I have used the round function as follows round(value, 0, 1) which as I understand should get rid of all decimal places by simply truncating them, however I am still left with two 0s after the decimal place. Next, I went to the designer view and edited the columns property of the datagridview so that they are all set to be numeric with zero decimal places, yet the decimal still remains. I followed that by going back into the code and change any CType() that were decimal to Integer and still no change.
When the datagridview's selection mode is set to "RowSelect", the HitTestInfo Type property only returns column header as the type and not the cell that is being clicked on.Is there a way to keep the selection mode as RowSelect and still detect which cell is being clicked on?
I have a program and I get time data from a sqldb and display it in a column in a listbox. What are the proper steps for adding the time as I iterate through the data in the column? I figure I will need to do some conversions on the time to be able to add it and display it as a total.
What is the proper way of working with percentages and DataGridView and dividing by zero..In my code I am attempting to divide two numbers, sometimes one of the numbers is zero..Then I need to add a column to my datagrid, I think i need it to be decimal? So i can sort it later. I had it as a string and everything worked fine excpet i couldnt sort properly.[code]If I change column to Double it handles it fine, then i am not sure how to read the value as a percentage?
I wrote a program to convert numbers to roman numerals but something in my code is making every number I put in return a ""I" roman numeral. Here's my code.
I am working on DataEntry Forms in VB.NET There are two controls are having in a present window. One is Combobox and one is Textbox. Combobox values are Mobile, FAX, E-mail. By the mistake some one enter the values like , In the combobox-E-mail and in the Textbox-9987453434. Finally these are saved on the Database. But i want to Re Enter the values.
For this i was selected in the Combobox-Mobile and in the Textbox-9987453434. These are the right values i want to save on the database.
But here the problem is that Phone number column(Textbox) is Indexed. (Unique) or No Duplicates in the database. Now i want to update only one column which is coming from Combobox in the database.
I need to convert a set of Julian Days into proper Date Time format dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM:SS Problem seems to be that they are Julian Days FROM a certain date, im assuming the standard 1970? Below is my code:
Dim strName As String strName = TextBox1.Text strName = StrConv(strName, vbProperCase) Label1.Text = strName
My question is: If I give blank spaces before name after name and between name and surname/title, then I want to remove all blank spaces except one blank space between name and surname/title.
Example : Input > " SANDEEP PREMCHANDANI "
Output > I want "Sandeep Premchandani" (Single space between Sandeep and Premchandani)
It seems that on clicking datagridview column header, the column will be automatically sorted based on the column type. I have a column showing some numbers. If column type is string, it sorts "1","20","3" into "1","20","3". If column type is double, it sorts into "1","3","20" which is the result that I want. However, there might be some erros in the numbers and error messages(text) will show in the cell instead of numbers. So I cannot set the column type as double. I want to ignore these error messages and sort all the numbers. How can I do this?
Also, I need to add some background colors to different rows in datagridview. So in the column header click event, I call the bkgColor Sub to achieve this. My question is that how can I override the sorting method in this event?

I have a class that contains one function: "ShowDialog()" It creates a new openfiledialog and sets its title, but when it is run, the title of the openfiledialog is set to the current directory that is shown in the dialog. I would not like this behavior. Here is the code:
Public Class LoadSet Public Shared Function ShowDialog() As System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult Dim Dialog As New System.Windows.Forms.OpenFileDialog Dialog.DefaultExt = ".bsfci"
