IDE :: Datagridviewcombobox Closes Immediately

Jan 13, 2011

I have an issue with VS 2008 datagridview combobox control.

The combo box in question closes immediately after the CellValidation method that I wrote invalidates the input in the combo box cell. What I mean by closes immediately is that when the drop down arrow is left-clicked, once I remove my finger from the left clicking of the mouse instead of staying down so that the user can see the selection options the combo box just closes.

I'm currently using EditOnEnter as my EditMode style. (I've tried switching between the different option the same behavior exists). The datagridview is bound to a dataset which was created from my database in MS Sql Server 2005.

This problem exists on two different forms and occurs exactly the same way. I don't know what other settings to mention to help in the troubleshooting of this error, but please feel free to ask me any questions so that I may resolve this issue. By the way both forms use datagridviews tied to the same dataset, just different tables and table adapters.

Keyboard Hook In Module Closes Immediately?

Apr 17, 2010

i am trying to make a app that loads a keyboardhook from a module on startup,
but unless i load the keyhook from the form the app just closes immediately.

i uploaded the keyhook module, to test it just start a new project, add the module,
to test it loading from the form just put hookkeyboard in the form load,

but what im tyring to do is have the module load first, so set the start up object to sub main

what this is suppose to do right now is just send a msgbox on every keystroke, it works from the form load but fails when loading from module, unless i am always typing something.

Reopen A File Immediately After It Closes Via My C# Application

May 18, 2012

I ran out of ideas and couldn't find any reference about it so here I go... I need to keep a secondary application wich is not related to my c# project always running in background. So if this secondary application crashes or someone else close it manually it will automatically re launch again via my c# app.

I have no clue of how to accomplish this one, I mean checking if this application closes by something external to my c# app.

Make The PDF File Be Immediately Released When Program Closes?

Feb 19, 2010

I have a VB program that displays a PDF file. When the program is closed it takes 30 seconds or so before AcroRd32 process releases the PDF file. In certain circumstances if the program is restarted with in this period, the PDF file does not display. The specific circumstances is that I have a second program (re)starting the program that displays the PDF file.

a) Make the PDF file be immediately released when my program closes

b) When the PDF file is loaded test that it properly loaded so that it can be reloaded if necessary.

Keyboard Hook Module Closes Immediately If Set As Startup Object

Apr 17, 2010

i am trying to make a app that loads a keyboardhook from a module on startup, but the problem i am having is unless i load the keyhook from the form, the app just closes immediately.

what im trying to accomplish in the end is the module will will check a 'user settings' file, depending on the settings it will show a form or load the keyhook. but this is where my problem is, if i set the keyboardhook to load from the sub main in the module the app will just close immediately unless (as far as i can tell) i am always typing something

if i set it to load from the form it stays open, ive tried creating a second module and loading the keyhook from their but it still closes i uploaded a copy of the keyhook module if anyone want to test it / check out the code... all it does right now is pop up a msgbox on every keystoke, for testing purposes,

Visual Studio 2008 Window Form Closes Immediately After Opening?

Mar 29, 2011

Within my Visual Studio 2008 VB.Net project I am opening multiple forms after setting the form (that is opening) to be an mdichild of the main form. This works in really well in most of my forms except one. I am doing the exact same thing for all of them.

Basically I declare the new form:

Using frm As New frmName() With {.variableName = currentVariable}
frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent
frm.openForm()
End Using

Within the openForm subroutine in the form code I have:

Public Sub openForm()
InitializeDataSources()
... ...
Me.Show()
End Sub

I know this works because if I remove frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent in the main form and change Me.Show() to Me.ShowDialog() in the child form then it works perfectly. Right now (for only one form) it shows the form for only a second (looks like a flicker when staring at the program) and then closes it.

DataGridViewComboBox Seems To Be In The Way

Jul 25, 2010

The code below works as it is now. It creates a datagridview with a combobox on it. The combobox updates a common field called personid.

My problem is I need to add a new column to the left of the combobox. If I just add this field to the sql (right after "SELECT") for the dgv it doesn't work. It does work if I put it after the combo but I need to have this column to the left of the combo.

How do I go about doing this? The dgv is created entirely in code and this cannot be changed.

Adding To DataGridViewComboBox During RunTime?

Mar 23, 2011

I have added a DataGridViewComboBox to my DataGridView during design time. It has 0 items in it and I need to add a bunch of items to it during runtime.

In most controls, they have some kind of direct method like ".Items.Add("etc")", but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to access the DataGridViewColumn programmatically.

I can create a new ComboBox during runtime and add it to the DataGridView, but that's not what I need to do.

I played around with IntelliSense, I've searched on Google and I've looked through the documentation. The only thing I could find on MSDN was DataGridViewControlCollection, but I didn't see anything that would allow me to directly access that control.

Set Datagridviewcombobox Value Based On Valuemember?

Aug 24, 2011

box withing a modal form. The combobox shows a list of ingredients where the displaymember is the IngredientName and the valuemember is the IngredientID, and a user would select an ingredient in the combobox and the returning value would be the ID for that ingredient. My issue is that within this same datagridview, i'd like to prepopulate it with items already existing in the database. However i'd like to set the display value in the combobox using the id value from the database. So if "Pasta" was the ingredient name and 101 was the ID, i'd set the value as 101 and it display Pasta in the combobox.

Here's what i have so far:
For Each row As ListViewItem In listIngView.Items
Dim i As Integer = dgvIngEdit.Rows.Add()

Databinded Datagridviewcombobox Column Not Showing Anything In VB 2010?

Jun 8, 2012

I migrated a project from VB 2005 to VB 2010. I have a datagridview binded to a dataset populated by the MySql Connector. One of the columns, with integer values, is displayed in a datagridviewcombobox type column. In VB 2005 it worked perfectly. But now, once migrated to VB 2010, the column doesn´t show anything. If I change the type a a textboxcolumn type, it does show the data. The column in the dataset is Integer, and the column in the datagridview is Integer also. But, strangely, although the value of the cell (when debugging) is Integer 1, the formatted value is String "" (empty). If I add integer items to the combo manually, the formatted value is the first added item, but still string, and not equal to the value property. It is the same whether the column is designed and added programatically or visually with the editor of the datagridview. It seems a bug in the combobox type.

Example Diffrent Color For A Specific Value In A Datagridviewcombobox Column

Dec 23, 2010

I wanted to visualize to the user the diffrence if they opted for certain values. In mycase certain choises would show phonenumbers on intranet.To show how I wil leave the control names default. To recreate the the project. Start a windows form application, place a datagridview, and 2 bindingsources on the form To start we need some data to show and a list to choose from.To make a simple example I chosen to make a person class containing an Id, Name and Position.Id If the Position is a staff position it should be blue others should remain the default style.But lets start with the colorScheme Interface so we can store the colorscheme we want to show for a certain positionitem in the datagrdview It wil need back and forecolors but also colors for teh item whilst selected. To show the Displaymember we want to see I've also added the toString property that should shadow the toString of the object.[code]

IDE :: Cannot Exit Form After Updating DataGridViewComboBox Cell

Oct 22, 2010

The form opens a simple form to accept a password if a name is selected from a dropdown. The form is opened modally from the validating event. If I select an item, fill in the password, close the modal form , it will not let the parent form close depending on how I exit the dropdown. When I look at the closing event cancel is set to true implying that the control still thinks it needs vaidating.

It works if i leave the dropdown cell in focus when I hit close.

If I click (even just once so the dropdown still is highlighted but just closed) on another cell in the grid the form will not close. It corrects itself if I repeats the first method.

Even worse if I press enter twice it crashes without going through any of my code when the grid tries to do its own commit edit on the editableControl but seems to have a wrong reference as it tries to use the DataGridViewComboBox as the editablecontrol and gets a cannot cast exception

Updated as I have found the cause.

The pop up password form is a home brewed modal form by disabling all open forms but leaves some menu items active.(mdi is used). It is the disable form that causes the issue. Without that it always works. So it seems the grid cant handle being disabled while changing cells.

A solution that works is to use ShowDialog but that changes the systems behaviour so I may not be allowed to do that.

Run Exe Immediately Of A CD?

Aug 24, 2009

I have had absolutely no prior experience in any programming whatsoever. Yesterday I downloaded the visual basic 2008 express edition from Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

I have a small question which I am sure is very easy for somebody else to answer and I apologise in advance if this question is in the wrong section.

I wanted to make a small exe to autorun from a cd. I want to be able to hand the cd out to friends and family. So far I have achieved what I wanted with the little app. On the cd I have an exe file in a particular folder that when clicking a command button on a windows form - I would like to run this exe. At the moment I have:

Private Sub Button5_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
Shell("explorer.exe ..appfolderapplication.exe")
End Sub

This finds and selects the application as required, however It does not run it. Another box comes asking me "Do you want to run or save this file?" If I click run, another box comes up "The Publisher could not be verified, are you sure you want to run this application?"

what code to I need to enter or change to make this exe run immediately as if I were the same as browsing for it and double clicking on it?

.net - Execute A LINQ-Query Immediately?

Jan 25, 2012

I don't like the verbose way of adding DataRows one by one via Tbl.Rows.Add, so i've created this pseudo LINQ query that does nothing but adding rows implicitely:

Private Function GetData() As DataTable
Dim years = {"2010/2009", "2009/2008", "2008/2007", "2007/2006", "2006/2005", "2005/2004", "2004/2003"}
Dim tbl = New DataTable
tbl.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Year"))

[code]....

As you can see i don't need the result of the query at all, it's only purpose is to iterate and call DataTable.Rows.Add. So the result is already available in the DataTable itself and not needed from the query.Admittedly this question is somewhat hyphotetical because there would not be a big difference in using f.e. ToList and normally a query's purpose is to return something.But anyway, what's the cheapest way(in terms of memory consumption, execution time) to execute a LINQ query when only the execution and not the result matters?Edit: Ok, thisquestion was a quick-shot and a chicken-and-egg problem. I wanted to reduce 20 lines of code to a single line but noticed that i need some kind of DataSource for the LINQ-Query. Therefor i've created the Array. But at this point i could have simply used a for-each loop as well to add the DataRows.

Conclusion: Use a LINQ-Query for what it's for: a query. Then this question is pointless since there is no cheapest way but only that which returns the correct result.

Can Immediately Stop A Thread From Running .NET

This takes some time to complete (about 5-10 seconds) so if the user quits the application before the enum is complete the application takes 5-10 seconds to quit.

Immediately Close Form After Saving

May 17, 2012

I have my form checked if it's dirty when a user goes to close it. If its dirty is true, the user is asked if they would like to save the data. When they click yes, the 'save event' is called. The problem I'm having is trying to get the form to completly close after saving. At the end of the save I put in me.close(), but another form closing event is triggered. Is this the correct way to dictate having the form close immediately after saving the data or is there a better way? If it is, I must have it placed in the wrong part of my code. Immediately after the "success" dialog box is displayed, I am asked if I want to save the data again.
