I have been battling with this problem for months with virtually no success.
I am using Visual Studio 2008 Professional. The database is Microsoft SQL 2005.
I have an unbound datagridview with two combo boxes � both bound to database tables. These are:
Combo box 1 is for VAT and is bound to the VAT table. This table has 3 columns configured as shown below[code]...
I have 2 tables Table A & Table B Table A has the table values that I want to be populated in a datagridview control.The challenge is that column 1 in table A contains an ID(foreign key) to a name field that is a located in table B. I need the datagrid to have the first column be a combobox that displays the names(from Table B) that are already in table A via the ID's, but reference the populating values from Table B. So that when you bring down the combobox you would be choosing from Table B data but populating table A with the ID and you would see a name there instead of an ID.[code] How do I populate my DS dataset with Table B? And how can I create a link to these two tables using a bound datagridview control?
View 1 RepliesI know I have done this before and as I remember it should be really easy. But for some strange reason I can't do it now and I am about to jump off the building.I will make it simple:Two tables, one is just a list of products and their code.The other table: "details" has a field named product. I want to store only the code there.In the second table's entry form, I am putting a combobox. This combo box should display the list of products, their names, but depending on which one is selected, the code is what is passed to the table "details". Currently If I set the display member to product and the value member to code it still pases the product to the binded data source.
View 3 RepliesI have a database that holds information about a particular job. One of those things is a customerID. CustomerID links to another table containing customer details. I have a combo box attached to a custom object that holds customerID as the valuemember and CustomerName as the displaymember.The JobDetails holds the customerID info. How do I set the default selection in the combobox based on the ValueMember of the combo box?

I have a loaded combo box and was wondering if there was a way i could get the place value from it when it is selected. An example would be i have a combo box full of foods:
Apple
Bannana
Peach
Pear
if the user selects apple then i want to be able to get 1 from the combo box since that is the spot it is in. if peach was selected then i want to get the place value of 3.
How to use a databound combo box to display one field in the drop down, and another as the combo box text on roll up? Using VS 2005... For example, I have a datatable that has 2 fields. One called "ShortDesc" and one called "LongDesc". I want to be able to see the "LongDesc" column values in the drop down on the combo box. When I make a selection, I want the text in the combo box to read the corresponding "ShortDesc" value.

The ComboBox Items collection is an ObjectCollection, so of course you can store anything you want in there, but that means you don't get a Text property like you would with, say, a ListViewItem. The ComboBox displays the items by calling ToString() on each item, or using reflection if the DisplayMember property is set.
My ComboBox is in DropDownList mode. I have a situation where I want to refresh the item text of a single item in the list when it gets selected by the user. The problem is that the ComboBox doesn't re-query for the text at any time besides when it loads up, and I can't figure out how else to do what I want besides removing and re-adding the selected item like so:
PlantComboBoxItem selectedItem = cboPlants.SelectedItem as PlantComboBoxItem;
// ...
cboPlants.BeginUpdate();
int selectedIndex = cboPlants.SelectedIndex;
[Code]....
This code works fine, except for the fact that my SelectedIndex event ends up getting fired twice (once on the original user event, and then again when I re-set the property in this code). In this case, it's not a big deal that the event is fired twice, but it's inefficient, and I hate that. I could rig up a flag so it exits the event the second time, but that's hacking.
how can i retrieve the data that i've stored in an access db column and display it in a combo box in a vb2008 project?
View 1 RepliesI have a combobox that is bound to a BindingSource that contains a custom object with multiple Properties.
Is there a way to access a Datamember that is not displayed in the combo box and display it elsewhere. For example, When a user selects a name from the combo box, texboxes (or Labels) populate with Title, PHone, email, etc. All of this data is loaded in the custom object that is bound to the datasource so the info has already been pulled from the db and is in memory.

The commented out code was my pathetic attempt to put the Value member of one combo box into the display of the other. This obviously does not work and my web browser, when using Google, is full of purple headers showing the sites that I have visited looking for an answer.
When I have this working, I want to use the feature in a datagridview which may make a difference to how the problem is approached.

I have an app which hangs in production periodically more frequently on some PC's than others. While trying to resolve this I have started to analyse the application using WIndows native debuggers, such as ntsd,which appear to throw up a large number of clr exceptions (first chance). While alot of these are handled in my code some appear to be related to issues with Windows binding. For example the exception' Cannot bind to the new display member' appear to occur when I assign a BO to the datasource of a bindingSource control while if I directly set the datasource of a UI control, which would have referred to the bindingSource, the message disappears.In all cases I would have the displaymember and valuemember set for my list controls before updating the bindingsource control's datasource.
View 2 RepliesI've set my DisplayMember property of the listbox to the property I want yet when I add the objects to my listbox it "fails" and instead uses the .ToString of the entire object which doesn't return what I want.

the DisplayMember only works if your listbox has a datasource. Well I'm not using a DataSource, like that guy I'm just using .Add. So how do I get DisplayMember to work without using a DataSource?Also I tried putting all of the objects (their simple item structures) into a List Of and then set that list as the DataSource to the ListBox and it actually added all of the objects to the listbox however the DisplayMember still didn't work and all I got where the results of Object.ToString().
I have a small problem. DataGridViewComboBoxColumn display value from ValueMember and not from DisplayMember. The grid work fine and when I select somthing from this column I see DisplayMember value but when focus lost the grid show ValueMember. I have this code combo box column:
statusCBoxColumn.DataSource = dt 'datatable with two fields StatusId and StatusText
statusCBoxColumn.DisplayMember = "StatusText" 'is type NVarchar
statusCBoxColumn.ValueMember = "StatusId" 'is type Int

So as the name states; I am a newer coder.
This is the code i have:
Public Sub RandomNumbers()
Dim s(4) As String
Dim RandomNumber As Byte
I don't know if you can tell what I am trying to do here, so I will try to explain. I what to create for random numbers and place them into for different text boxes. I also would like to do this with combo boxes and their selected indexes. So if the combo box has 10 items in it; the new selected index would be the random number generated above.

I have a form that queries a database into a dataset then sets textboxes to values from the query.

I can't get the combo box to display the value from the query. How do I do that.
