VS 2005 Populating A Collection From Some Tables In The Database?
Apr 26, 2010I am populating a collection from some tables in the database which serves as a look-up from controls (combobox) I am using but what I want is rather than hitting the database each time can I just cache the collection and get the collection from the cache? The look-up table may or may not change all the time so I would want to have a way to validate if the cached collection is still valid or not.
View 2 RepliesVS 2010 DatagridviewComboBoxColumn Dynamically Populating Items Collection?
Aug 10, 2011I am trying to create a basic quoting tool but got stuck on how to clear and change the item collection from within a combobox for a datagrid.What we have is a list of 4 columns like a. Device b.TypeofService c.State d.Price Inside a sql database. Data is also structure like above as well.
I have a datagridview where the user will populate a,b,c and the price will be display and a total at the end. However a,b, and c aren't related in my current application. The combobox will show all possible dinstinct values for each column.
This works fine but I want to refine the application to only show the values of b. which are in the database after the user select the value for a. I have tried searching on how to do this as I assume to the Contry/State/City situation but could not find anything for a datagridview control in VB.NET.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? If I cannot do this dynamically from within a datagridview I was thinking of maybe creating three combo box outside and having it populating the datagridview afterwards but it wouldn't be as nice.

Listbox Items Colour - Two Types Of Items Populating In A Listbox (checked Listbox)
Apr 28, 2009I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.
View 5 RepliesFLAG And InputBox - Display An InputBox For Each Word?
Jun 22, 2010I have an assignment that asks me to:
1. create a button
2. when that button is clicked, an inputBox will appear to ask the user how many words they will enter.
3. then display an inputBox for each word.
For example, when the first inputBox appears, I enter "3" (meaning that I will enter 3 words).Then there should be 3 more inputBox (each inputBox allows me to enter only 1 word)After I enter the third word, there will be no more inputBox.How can we FLAG (stop) the inputBox, or let the inputBox know when to stop showing up?

Populating A Listbox With Totals From Previous Forms Within A Project & Adding Sales Tax?
Apr 12, 2009is there any way to populate a listbox with totals data from previous pages? I'm working on a project for a class where the final form needs to have all the totals from the previous 3 pages (each page has one total each), in some capacity (so I do not necessarily need to use a listbox if there is an easier way to do this).One thing about the previous 3 forms, two are set up in radiobuttons and one is set up w/a checkbox format (but I will likely change the radiobuttons over to checkboxes as a later revision).I just can't figure out how to populate the listbox with info from a previous form, I keep thinking load events, but that doesn't take into account which options might be taken from previous forms.once the totals from the previous forms have been added to the final form I will need to add a 7% sales tax. I assume that something such an if then statement will take care of that though.Just wanted to run that everyone here at the forum just in case there is a better way to do that.

Summing All Of A Collection In A Listbox?
Oct 17, 2011I am trying to add numbers. So if there are 2 numbers in a listbox, theyare summed up. If there are 3 numbers in a listbox, they are summed up
[Code]...
What I'm trying to do is to count the number of items. Then I start my counter at 0. For each time the counter goes up, I add another row from the list box. and loops until my counter reaches the number of items in my listbox. I'm stuck intTotal. The only way I know of adding the totals is lstCosts.Items(0)+lstCosts.Items(1)+lstCosts.Items(3). But what if the user enters 4 numbers? I can't find a way around that. I think this should be a very simple question and I think only this line needs to be changed.
Inherit From ListBox ObjectCollection Collection?
Jan 12, 2010I'm in the process of creating my own version of the Combo Box as MS version does not give me the flexibility I need, this is work fine. I just had a little niggle
The List box contains/uses ObjectCollection to hold all its objects, but it does not have the facility to inform by the way of events that an item has been added etc.
If I inherited from this collection could I add the necessary code to make this happen, I have done this in my previous controls I�ve created when I wanted this facility.
Retrieving Collection Object From Listbox?
May 17, 2012Currently, I have a listbox lstInventory where I have loaded some database information from a .mdb file. I am able to add new records, and they all display correctly.
Yet, I can't seem to retrieve or access any of the listbox items. (Not trying to reaccess database in here, yet). I am hoping to "Edit" an existing database record by matching it to the lstInventory's selecteditem property. Unfortunately, I am not able to retrieve anything (tried traditional CType(lstInventory.selecteditem.ToString, String) approach, as well as a debug.write approach (which I can't seem to display, even with a Listener-which is another issue in itself).
Furthermore, when I check the listbox.items.count property, it prints out as a "0" [using a messagebox.show()]
I have tried searching multiple forums, but found lots of "database into listbox" threads, and the MSDN website hasn't helped me yet. Do I need to know the collection's name (what would it's name be based on ?)? Or am I not converting the object into a printable/countable quantity?

ListBox Load Settings From String Collection?
Feb 26, 2009I'm trying to create a favorite box in my web browser using this code in Favorites.vb
Public Class favorites
Private Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click

Now I have it so when you click the add button it will put the URL in the string FavList, and place the URL in Listbox1 however I have no idea how to save it, and load it.
So the next time the user opens it, it will have the URL in the string and URL box, so when they click the URL in listbox1 it will redirect the WebBrowser. I think it works like that already I just need to know how to save it, and load it.

.net - Storing Subcollections (filtered Versions Of The Main Collection) Inside The Collection As Cache?
