Asp.net - Reference TextBox In One UserControl From Another UserControl

Jan 19, 2011

I have two UserControls on a MasterPage. DataEntryUC contains several TextBoxes and DropDownList. NavSaveUC contains navigation buttons. When the user clicks on a navigation button, I will be saving the data entered into DataEntryUC from the NavSaveUC UserControl.

I have a couple of tables in my DB that contain stored procedure names, control names, control types, SqlDbTypes, etc.... that correlate with DataEntryUC.

How do I reference a text box that is on DataEntryUC from NavSaveUC?

I have been working on the following code from NavSaveUC with no luck.

Dim MyControlName = "txtFirstName"
Dim MyControlType = "TextBox"
Dim MyStringValue as String

Obtaining Reference To Class Instance By String Name?

Mar 12, 2010

Is it possible using Reflection or some other method to obtain a reference to a specific class instance from the name of that class instance? For example the framework for the applications I develop heavily uses public class instances such as:
Public bMyreference as MyReference = new MyReference

Then throughout the application bMyReference is used by custom controls and code. One of the properties of the custom controls is the "FieldName" which references a Property in these class instances (bMyReference.MyField) as a string. What I would like to be able to do is analyze this string "bMyReference.MyField" and then refer back to the actual Instance/Property.

In VB6 I would use an EVAL or something simular to convert the string to an actual object but this obviously doesn't work in VB.net. What I'm picturing is something like this:
Dim FieldName as String = MyControl.FieldName ' sets FielName to bMyReference.MyField
Dim FieldObject() as String = FieldName.Split(".") ' Split into the Object / Property
Dim myInstance as Object = ......... ' Obtain a reference to the Instance and set as myInstance
Dim myProperty = myInstance.GetType().GetProperty(FieldObject(1))

Reference The Values From Textboxes On Form Submit That Reside In Usercontrol?

Aug 18, 2011

I have a large form that reuses several elements, so I decided to create a usercontrol with some common fields. The problem is when the form is filled out by a user and submitted, how do I reference those values so I can input them to my database???

Example:

Using Conn As New SqlConnection(connect)
Using Cmd As New SqlCommand(SQL, Conn)
Cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Acct_Company", txtPartner.Text)
Cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Acct_AccountNum", txtPartnerAccount.Text)

So, above two Cmd lines are for normally inserted textboxes in my form, but what would the line look like to reference any usercontrol form fields?

Added To Each UserControl (different Instances Of The Same Class), A Little Map?

Apr 28, 2009

I have a form whose purpose is to let the user to load map files.The form may manage a variable classes of maps, and each class have his own UserControl.To make it more user friendly, I added to each UserControl (different instances of the same class), a little map, showing a small picture of the map, and some data, as bound coordinates.

The problem is, that it looks really ugly. The maps are so big, compared with the rest of the UserControl (who contains just a button and a textbox to search for files).I wish to fix it, but I din not see an elegant way to include the pictures and info.I attach a form screen capture with two UserControl.I would like to get some tips for more experienced users. There are some guidelines?

Exposing A Supporting Class From A Usercontrol

Apr 8, 2010

I have a supporting GridColumn Class that resides in the same class library project as my GridBox usercontrol.It is used in a list of GridColumns as a property.[code]In the Load event of my form I would like to use the .Add method of the List(Of GridColumn) to add columns to the usercontrol.[code]It will not work though because it cannot find the GridColumn class.If I use: "Imports <My Class Library Name>" it works, but I would like it to work without having to do so.Standard controls do this all the time.Am I putting the supporting class in the wrong place?Is there a modifier I that will expose the class when the usercontrol is dropped on a form?As a work around I created a method that adds a column but I would like to know in any case.

I ask because several different classes can have this 'management class' as a property and am having a hard time typing the parameter.

Use CType To Change An Object Variable "obj" To Custom Class That Reference Using A String Variable Like Obj.GetType.Name?

Feb 9, 2011

The code below works for the class that I hard coded "XCCustomers" in my RetrieveIDandName method where I use CType. However, I would like to be able to pass in various classes and property names to get the integer and string LIST returned. For example, in my code below, I would like to also pass in "XCEmployees" to my RetrieveIDandName method. I feel so close... I was hoping someone knew how to use CType where I can pass in the class name as a string variable.

Note, all the other examples I have seen and tried fail because we are using Option Strict On which disallows late binding. That is why I need to use CType.I also studied the "Activator.CreateInstance" code examples to try to get the class reference instance by string name but I was unable to get CType to work with that.When I use obj.GetType.Name or obj.GetType.FullName in place of the "XCCustomers" in CType(obj, XCCustomers)(i)I get the error "Type 'obj.GetType.Name' is not defined" or "Type 'obj.GetType.FullName' is not defined"

VS 2005 Using A Common Base Class For Form And Usercontrol

Aug 10, 2009

I happen to have these common procedures which I want to be used in my forms and usercontrols, with the form I can put those procedures in the base form which is being inherited but I happen to have a need to use those same procedures in my usercontrols, is there a way that I can have a common base class that I can use both for my form and usercontrol? I haven't used yet a base usercontrol since my usercontrols will not look the same so I have to put those procedures in each one of them and I find it rather cumbersome.

IDE :: Design A ContextMenuStrip In A Designer Without A Relation To A Specific Form Or UserControl Class?

Oct 16, 2011

in VS 2008, is there a way to design a ContextMenuStrip in a designer without a relation to a specific Form or UserControl class? For example,if you need the same ContextMenuStrip in Form1, Form2 and Form3, in which of them am I to design the ContextMenuStrip? Do I have to add a "pseudo-Form" to the project that contains my shared ContextMenuStrips and create only one instance of that Form, or is there another way? I consider this a programmatic hack, that's why my question is whether the IDE offers something better.

.net - Write A .NETCF Partial Class To Extend System.Windows.Forms.UserControl?

I'm writing a .NET CF (VBNET 2008 3.5 SP1) application, which has one master form, and it dynamically loads specific UserControls based on menu click, in a sort of framework idea. There are certain methods and properties these controls all need to work within the app. Right now I am doing this as an Interface, but this is aggravating as all get up, because some of the methods are optional, and yet I MUST implement them by the nature of interfaces.

Reference To The String In The Heap Is Passed Even When You Pass The String ByVal To A Method?

Mar 2, 2011

So strings are reference types right? My understanding is a reference to the string in the heap is passed even when you pass the string ByVal to a method.

String myTestValue = "NotModified";
TestMethod(myTestValue);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(myTestValue); /* myTestValue = "NotModified" WTF? *[code].....

And what is going on under the hood? I would have bet my life that the value would have changed....
