I have a textbox that i've bound to a dataset via the IDE.i've but when adding a new record i can;t populate it programatically, but the user can type data into. The follwing code doesn't put the required text in the textbox, but i can type it it while debugging:
FQuoteCard.QuoteHeaderBindingSource.AddNew()
FQuoteCard.TextBoxBurdensOperatorID.Text = "some random text"
this doesn't seem to make any sense - i'm adding new so i should be able to populate the textbox programatically, in the same way as a user can type in the textbox.I suppose i can bind the textbox programatically after adding the text, but this somewhat defeats the object of being able to databind via the IDE.
In my application, I have a data bound form using a binding control (built by the wizard). The application has one primary data screen plus a few more on tabcontrol subscreens.Picture for example that the tabcontrol has two tabs, tab1 and tab2.When the form is displayed, tab1 is visible.Now picture the form or window split in half the top part of the form has a few textbox controls bound to the data and there are a few textbox controls in the lower half of the screen on tab1 of tabcontrol1.There are a few textbox controls on tab2 as well.When the form displays, I can access any of the .text properties of any of the textbox's that I can see on the form and in tab1 of the tabcontrol.BEFORE tab2 is chosen or even, I need to get some of the data from the .text property on a textbox control that is on tab2.I have tried to get the data but as far as VB is concerned, it does not appear to be there UNTIL tab2 is displayed.
To prove this, I put a command button on the form and it simply does this: MSGBOX (mytext box33. text)mytextbox33 is a databound control on tab2 of the tabcontrol1.tab2 is not in focus and apparently, neither is the data.how can I read the .text property of a textbox that is on a form but the form (or tab) is not in focus?
I have successfully added textboxes to a form at runtime. I have also succesfully added an event handler to these same textboxes. What I'm having trouble understanding is how to refer to these textboxes programmatically after they have been added. Specifically, how do I;
1) Retrieve user data entered in those textboxes without an event handler
2) Find a specific one of those textboxex later (is looping thru all controls of type "textbox" the only way)?
purpose of find is so that I can set the value of the corresponding textbox programatically, based on some criteria Here is the code (all within in a for loop, where intvararycount is incrementing to a set limit) I have used to add the Textboxes to a Panel on a Form;
I would like to create a text file with some data i am manipulating in a script component and write it to a text file. i know how to write it to an existing text file, but what i would like to do is create the text file programmatically so i can name it textfile(TodaysDate).txt.
I'm currently building an intranet engine for a project I've got on the go at the moment,and I'd like to save myself a little time by generating header images from code where possible, however, I'd like it to match our concept image.What I'd like to achieve is below:My issue is I've not the faintest how to create that from code. I can do the absolute basics but that's about it.I start to fall down when it comes to the gradient background and the drop shadow on the text. I can get away with positioning the text on the larger header image, so if it's not possible to generate the exact gradient I have there, then I have a work around for that, but what I really want to achieve is the text with the font and drop shadow.
i have 3 textbox and 1 listbox bound to the same datatable. when i insert new row to the datatable, there are 2 rows affacted in datatable, one row in datatable is replaced by the newly added row, and this new row is also insert into the end of datatable, while this modified datatable is updated into the database, only the inserted row is updated, the other modified row did not affacted in database.
here is my code:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load Dim DA As MySqlDataAdapter
I have a textbox in a ListView: <GridViewColumn> <GridViewColumn.CellTemplate> <DataTemplate> <TextBox Text="{Binding Password,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"/> </DataTemplate> </GridViewColumn.CellTemplate> </GridViewColumn> How to convert the text to "." and in-code behind back again to the original text (using IValueConverter or any other method)?
Please help for database connectivity using vb2008 to ms access,and also how bound the controls like textbox going to database using vb2008 as front and back is ms access
created a control inheriting a textbox. it is used to format a datetime data. i created a custom property DateTimeFormatMask which is "MM/dd/yyyy" by default. problem i'm having is that when datatable is filled by adapter and the textbox is populated with the data, it is not formatted..i placed the codes that formats the data in the Validating Event which doesn't seem to be triggered at this point.below is my code on my
I am trying to change a property of a data bound textbox on start up of a form and each time a new record is navigated to. I can't find the a good event to attach this action to.
I have a datagridview that is populated from an Oracle 11g DB. What I would like to do is add the values of a column together and display the results in a textbox. What would be the easiest way to do this?
Is there anyone who can tell me the code for the below? Receive a lower bound and an upper bound of a range. Also receive a number of random numbers to generate. You must validate
1) the numbers are integers 2) the lower bound is less than or equal to the upper bound 3) the number to generate is positive (i.e., > 0).
Generate this many numbers in the specified range and keep track of how many of each are generated in an array of counters. Once all the numbers have been generated, display in a List Box the number, the raw count data, and the percentage of how many times the number was generated displayed with two decimal places of precision.
My application has textboxes that are bound to DataSet fields of a SQl Server 2005 database. The columns in the database allow nulls. The column properties in the DataSet have AllowDBNull set to true. Attempting to write the un-changed data back to the database replaces the NULL values with "", and the update fails on the datetime columns with an error about being unable to convert "" to a date. It appears that the problem is that the null values from the database are being converted into empty strings when the textbox is populated.
I have a DataGridView that is bound to a DataSet I created from a database table named Contacts. The Contacts table contains a field called StatusId. StatusId is a foreign key to a table called Status. The Status table contains StatusId and StatusName.
I'm trying to populate a date from a bound text field in a DetailsView. I keep getting a error when a DBNull is in the column. How do I avoid the DBNull when populating the text field.
My code is as follows: <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="CBYD Clear Date"> <EditItemTemplate> <asp:TextBox ID="CBYDExpDate" runat="server" ReadOnly="true" Text='<%# IIf(Eval("CBYDDate") is DBNull.Value,"", String.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", Eval("CBYDDate").AddDays(30)))%>' /> </EditItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateField>
Alright, so I've got my program and it works, but I have to pump out updates every once in a while. If I can get it so the code will let me have my text file with any number of lines for my array, then I can simply send out a text file and update done.So here's what my code does:
Define a record of arrays, two items, a unicode string (Japanese/Korean text) and then an English translation for the text.I read in the file, it's one item per line, unicode string and then the translation.I have it preset with a defined upper bound for my array, but if I just took out the define and leave the upper bound as limitless, then it would work if I just updated the text file. Problem is, I don't know how to do it with stream.reader (I think that's what it is) because I learned a different way in school. I want to do something like Do While Not EOF with this, and loop it reading lines from the file.
Would it work if I change the array to no upper bound and then simply use Do While Not EOF with stream reader?
On my app. there is a lot of labels created by code (Please see my post "Filter text before Data Binding) how can I by clicking on one of this labels have the app respond by bringing up a text box bound to the same field so that changes can be made to that field?
This is the only way I know how to obtain the info I need for this equation but if generated again with no input from the textboxes I get an error. Is there anyway to bypass this if its generated a second time with no inputs?
I have a custom collection class that is bound to a data grid view object.I'd like to try to do the following from the custom element class if possible.
1) I'd like the name of the column header to be a different text than the name of the public property in the custom class. i.e. Trade_Name should read "Trade Name"
2) I'd like to try to be able to manipulate the text formatting/color of the individual collection class element's items. i.e. for a profit/loss field I'd like to have the numbers be red if they are loss and black of they are profit. I know I could do this from the datagridview object in the form, but that can be cumbersome to raise events etc.
I am having issues understanding why it is that a text box that has been bound to a dataset correctly updates that dataset when the text in the box is manually changed i.e. by changing it using the keyboard but the dataset does not recognise the change when I change it in code.Am I missing something obvious? The text is changed in code when the user clicks on a command button that copies the text from another textbox on the form to this textbox.
[Code]...
As i mentioned, manually it works fine but when I use the comman button to change the text it does not recognise that any changes have occured.
I have a data-bound combobox that pulls values from a BindingList(of T). Combobox loads fine, correct values are displayed (I'm not using SelectedItem or SelectedValue). I'm using properties and connecting the data to the control via a bindingsource.
What I want is if the user types text into the combobox, I want the data from the bound table to change to that new text, i.e. edit the bound data directly.
Easy as pie to do with a textbox, but can't seem to get a combobox to work this way.
I was trying to use the validated event of the combobox to write the data to the datasource, but it doesn't fire when I press enter. Is that the way to do it? Can I not link the data to the combobox directly?
After 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.
None of the Microsoft videos I have watched, or the other posts I have seen, have given me the pieces I need to understand this process. This is the one key piece of understanding that I need to finish about 4 different programs I have started in the last 2 years. All of them key on understanding the following processes:
I am building a data based application using VB 2008 an SQL Express. I need to create textboxes on my form using code, (With & End With) method. I need a simple code string that will allow the app to check if the field to wich the textbox wil be databound is Nul, If so the textbox will not be created.
