I have a list view populated by a database. The columns for each record are First, Last and EMPID. When I look at the list view on the form at runtime, I can see some/all of the First name and then below that may be part of the Last and some ... periods and no EMPID. When I hover over the record, I can see the EMPID. Is there a way to have all of the information in the record visible in the list view?
View 4 RepliesAfter I have retrieved my data from my access database, I would like to insert text into one of the columns in a new row. Is this possible? Here's a snipit of my code I use to retrieve the data from access:
If con.State = ConnectionState.Closed Then con.Open()
sdr = cmd.ExecuteReader()
rtime = Now()
[Code]....
It's the rtotal_time value that I need to insert into a new row, in and cell, the datagrid.
I need access to the information in a populated listview so that I can load some textboxes with the contents of the selected row.
View 2 RepliesI could not find any remarks on MSDN ListView.Groups Property that empty ListViewGroup will be hidden. Is it by design, or I am missing something? My sample code below will show only "group 2" with item "item1".
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
'
Dim gr = New ListViewGroup("group 1")

Is there are any way to show ListViewGroup without adding dummy item
For now the only workaround idea I have is to use collapsible listview (Vista and up)
I want to show the group name font in listview as bold, can i do that?

I'm trying to create a small program, which I think will be helpful to others(in here). My aim is to convert the English text shown in screen to Malayalam. English-to-Malayalam conversion is not a problem. But the problem is, how to extract the text from the screen. In most of the converter/translator, the text needs to be copied or written down in the translator tool. But my program will cut off that part. That is, simply move the program window (having a rectangle hollow portion) to the English word that needs to be converted. And upon pressing a button (or autodetect), the English word is converted to Malayalam.
So, my question is how to extract the English text(or words) from the screen (which is seen through the hollow portion of the window.
Here's a screenshot of what I'm trying to do.

I have a User Control that is a ProgressBar with Dock set to Fill. The code is as below. Unfortunately it simply doesn't show the text in the progress bar and why is beyond me skill.
[Code]....
The If Not... conditional code in the set method is there to prevent the SetProgressText procedure running every time the property is set. The Value property of a ProgresBar is an Integer and if the code that is setting it runs through thousands of loops (>600,000 in my case) then there's no point updating the text every time since it can only actually change 100 times for a 0-100 ProgressBar. The 600k looping takes about 2 seconds usually, without that conditional code it takes at least 2 minutes!

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to get a combobox to be automatically filled from a text file and have it editable by the user.
So far, when the program is running I can add new items and they appear in the text file and combobox but when I restart the program the combobox list is empty even though the text file has stuff in it.

So basically i have the need to only process a command when the text box is populated, if the textbox is not populated i want it to throw a simple msgbox

I have an Asp web form (language is VB) that is used to update records in a SQL database. The form is populated with the record with many textboxes as well as dropdownlists. I have a textbox that is populated with a date from the record and is displayed with the date and the time. I would like change the format to only display the date as "mm-dd-yyy". In the code behind the date field is called from the database and put into the textbox via:
"MyDate.Text = dt.Rows(0)("MyDate").ToString()".
I thought this would be an easy one but I can't think of a good way to do it.User submits a webform. Based on submitted information I build three classes and assign their properties from received data:
UserInfo userInfo = new UserInfo();
UserAddress userAddress = new UserAddress();
UserEmployer userEmployer = new UserEmployer();
Based on submitted information some classes end up being populated with properties and some do not.
What's the best way to check whether userInfo class, for example, ended up with properties assigned ? I don't want to save a particular object to the database if it doesn't have any real properties assigned and all of them are set to either null or "".
I only want to save the objects that ended up with at least one real property assigned.ps. using NHibernate to save data to db
I have a form (formA) which contains a tabcontrol with two tab pages. Each tabpage has 6 textboxes and 3 comboboxes. In addition to the tabcontrol there is a separate combobox and textbox. The question I have, is how to best ensure that all these fields are populated with text and or numbers? From this a start button is pressed which generates another form (formB) which requires the fields from (formA). If for instance 1 or more fields is not populated, then generate a message to show the user which 'box' requires data. Only when all fields are populated will this enable the 'start' button.

How do you change the size of a listview when the number of rows grow when a different where select is commanded on textchange. I have a textchange on coustomer name which fills the listview with just the names that start with the letters as they are typed in, this bring up the listview with those customers. I would like to change the lenght of the listiew when the row count increases.
View 2 RepliesI need some help on telling the program how to check if user typed the text article shown correctly word by word as they are typing. I've tried

I have a rich text box that have a paragraph in it (the parragraph may change). The user is able to decide what type and/or size of font he whishes to view the text in. My problem is that not more that an average of four words per line should be displayed per line. My idea was to size the rtb so that it automatically wrap the text to and average of 4 words per line. This I would do by determining the average width of a word (number of characters) in the paragraph, multiplying it by the width in pixels or twips of a character and then multiplying by 4 to get the average required length of a line. It does not need to be exact as long as I can get as close as possible to 4 words per line. Sample text:
My Father walks to the market every day to buy fresh bread and milk for the house.
Result expected:
My Father walks to the market every day to buy fresh bread and milk for the house.
Notice some lines may be slightly longer as long as the average is 4 words per line.My problem is that I dont know how to determine the width of a character in order to ultimately determine the width of a sentence.
I am using a textbox which handle the name of the employee and when it get focus i am using a listview with detail view which shows all available employees and user have to select any of them. I am using all this control in a panel, unfortunately listview need more size then panel, and i cannot increase the size of panel. But placing listview inside the panel make its child control and hide the half list view. Is there any way that i can show full list view control under the textbox?
View 2 RepliesI'm attempting to get the size of a bunch of files located in a directory with an array. Using a single file, it works great. But as an array, I get an error. This is the code I was using:
VB .NET
Dim filepath() As String = Directory.GetFiles("C:Test", "*", SearchOption.AllDirectories)
Dim lvi As New ListViewItem
Dim fi As New FileInfo(filepath.ToString)
[code]....
It works... kind of. It adds each file to the ListView, when I just want the whole sum. I was hoping I could just use "DirectoryInfo" from the System.IO namespace, but everything I've been reading says I need to loop through the files.
I'd like to autosize listview columns to fit the column names. From what I saw this should do it but it doesn't work for me. Can someone see what I'm doing wrong or know of a way to do it? The listview is designed to dynamically build the coulmns based on the number of coumns in a recordset.

I have a ListView w/filename, data, time and size fields. I've copied the code from this article [URL] to use in my solution. Problem is, when I click a column header the first time, it sorts, but when I click the same header a second time, to sort in reverse, the column stays in the same order as it was just sorted in.
