Listbox, Database And Row Position And Search Boxes?
Dec 24, 2009
I'm currently working on a program that involves a listbox, database and some (rich) Textboxes. Let's assume I'm making a contactlist program.The database connection is established, placed 'ContactName' in listbox.When you click on someone's name in the listbox, I want the program to get the data of that person and show that data in RichTextbox1. I've spend hours thinking how to accomplish that but all I got was headaches.
A second thing I would like to do is to place a textbox on the form and when you type a character it removes all the entries in the listbox except for the ones that matches.So if I'm searching for John Doe and I type "John" in the textbox I would like to see all the John's in my contact list. Or when I search for John and only type "oh" I would like to remove all the items that don't have any "oh" in their names. (Search box)

Is it possible to select an item in one listbox and then display the data of another listbox with the same indexed position? I am planning a project and this is something I would like to attempt but I haven't figured out how to do it.[code..]
I tried doing the above code but instead of displaying the listbox text the message box just returned false.

I'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.

I have a listbox which on form load generates correctly from a text file like so in a listbox...ex"John Doe, 1""Bob Brown,2"I now would like to search the listbox if it contains either a "1" or a "2" which is does in this case and copy the item to another listbox. The 1 and 2 indicate positions I have a position listbox for each position. So 3 listbos, first one contains the names on form load, 2 other empty listboxes one for position 1 other for position 2...I have tried the following
If xReservationListBox.SelectedIndex = xReservationListBox.FindString("1") Then
'MessageBox.Show("Found It")
xSpot1ListBox.Items.Add(xReservationListBox.Items(0))
[code].....

I have an application in VB.NET which gets string data from the database. This string has data which looks as below:
"This is the update: I have an issue with the application"
I need only part of the data, that comes after the new line i.e. "I have an issue with the application".
For this I am trying to search the position using InStr where the string has data in a new line. I tried many options, but they don't work.
I used "vbCrLf", Chr(13), "
", "
", "<br/>", Environment.NewLine, but none of them work.
How can I get the data I need?

so i have this data grid, which i wanna search , base on specific criteria from two or more text boxes; eg a user wants to search employees from karachi, so they enter karachi in the first text box. now they want to search employees from karachi whose status is permanent, so they enter permanent in the second text box, and the data grid shows employees from karachi whose status is permanent.
For search from ONE text box, i have used the following code :
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
If TextBox1.Enabled = True Then

Very simply, I'm positioning a small ListBox over a DataGridView column when the user right-clicks and selects "Show Distinct Values". This works fine until the vertical scrollbar of the DataGridView is clicked. Once that's done the listbox pops up all the way over to the left edge of the DataGridView. As confirmation of the problem I created a small app to test with.

I have a listbox on my form which gets items added as the program progresses, when there are more items than the box can display, the vertical scrollbar appears, fine... so far so good.I would like the scrollbar default position to be at the bottom of it's column so that the last entered item is displayed but can't find the relevant command, I assume there is such a command.

Because 70 has a number which is 4 it will no longer be tested so we will test the second number which is 5)Because 6 is not less than 5 it will test the next number which is 25. 6 is less than 25 so it will move the number to the second listbox.)If you still dont get it iam willing to give you more idea and information.

I'm migrating an application from VB6 to VB.Net and I found a change in the behavior of the ListBox and I'm not sure of how to make it equal to VB6.The problem is this:In the VB6 app, when the ListBox is focused and I type into it, the list selects the element that matches what I type. e.g. If the list contains a list of countries and I type "ita", "Italy" will be selected in the listbox.The problem is that with the .Net version of the control if I type "ita" it will select the first element that starts with i, then the first element that starts with "t" and finally the first element that starts with "a".

I'd like to modify that to be able to put part of the name and it find it. example: Search for Banana Apple pie what it finds is 1743 = Banana Apple Pie Also I'd like when clicked the item from the listbox is displayed in a text box. If I use textbox.text = moblist.items(i) it only shows it when I search and not when I click. I've tried textbox.text = moblist.selecteditem but it does nothing?
