Repopulating A ComboBox From Database Table

Dec 12, 2008

trying to figure out out to make a combo box re-populate itself with values from its data bindings from an Access database.

I have my bindings in the combo box, and it pulls the right column from my table, and returns the proper value to a different table. Everything saves properly to all of the tables, but what i am trying to accomplish here is this...

I have a combo box, it is populated with a database column of "G/L codes" (by the way that is not the column name) the combo box shows these values without problem.

These codes exist in a table that is editable (basically so the user can add a G/L code to the list if one is missing), a button is supplied that opens a new form, which contains DB related text boxes, and a data binding navigator to look through the data base records, save, add new records, etc. When this form is loaded, the user can add a new record, save the info, and then close this form, which brings us back to the main form where the combo box is located that is populated with the values of this G/L code table, what I am trying to get working is updating this combo box now that a new G/L code has been added.

I have been looking for a solution for days, tried many forums, read all posts on this site that had a keyword of "combo box" and I can still find nothing. I have tried many code samples such as...

Private Sub Repopulate()
Me.G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox.DataSource = Me.Db1DataSet.GLCodes
Me.G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox.DisplayMember = "Combined"
Me.G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox.ValueMember = "Combined"
Me.G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox.Refresh()
End Sub

have tried calling this when the combo box gets focus in the attempt to update the combo box every time it is selected.

Have tried reloading the table adapter as well when the combo box takes focus with the following

Private Sub G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox_TakeFocus(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles G_L_Code___DescriptionComboBox.GotFocus
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'Db1DataSet.GLCodes' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.GLCodesTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Db1DataSet.GLCodes)
End Sub

Honestly I'm at wits end trying to get this combo box to repopulate its values from the database. I don't get any error codes when running either, all my attempts simply do nothing

Apparent Bug When Repopulating A Datagridview?

Jul 27, 2011

I am using VS2010 and .NET 4. My form has a DataGridView (dgvTest), and a checkbox (CheckBox1). I am selecting 2 or 3 fields from a table, depending on whether the checkbox is checked (which it is initially). My possible SQL statements are "SELECT ID,strForenames,strSurname FROM tblAlumni" and "SELECT strForenames,strSurname FROM tblAlumni".

I have used SQL Profiler to confirm that these are the queries sent to the DB. All seems well when I load the form (I see 3 fields, in the order I expect), and when I uncheck the box (I see 2 fields, in the order I expect). However, when I check it again, the ID field appears THIRD in the columns of the DataGridView, not first! I have found a couple of reports of something similar to this (mis)behaviour on the Net, but folks just seem to find some other way to do the job rather than ask is this a problem with DataGridView that needs fixed.

Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System

[code]....

do your experts agree this is a bug? The "fix" is to wipe the DataGridView between repopulations, but I'm not sure I should have to?

dgvTest.DataSource = Nothing
dgvTest.Refresh()

Repopulating DetailsView Control?

Mar 23, 2012

I have a DetailsView1 control that is databound in many fields but also has fields that I prepopulate upon loading the page for the first time. Example being fields named ROW, FLAG, PRINTED. The user can then input data into the other fields Like FIRST NAME, LAST NAME, COMMENTS and press INSERT. I should also mention that these fields are templatefields.

<asp:TemplateFieldHeaderText="Row"SortExpression="Row"><InsertItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBoxID="TextBox1"runat="server"Text='<%#Bind("Row")
%>'></asp:TextBox>

[code]....

Then the insert of the data begins and creates a SQL record. This works as designed the first time thru.The problem begins when I try to populate the same fields for the next record using the same logic that I used the first time but the fields will not come to the screen populated the second time. What do I need to do in order to get the fields in the DataView1 to be populated after the first INSERT command has cycled thru its process?

Transferring Data From One Field In A Table In A Database To Another Field In A Different Table But Same Database In .NET?

Jul 22, 2010

I am creating a database in VB.NET for a movie rental place. I currently have three forms;

Member Information
DVD Information
Borrow DVDs

What I would like to do is when I am viewing a member's details, if I click a button 'Borrow DVD for Member', the member's ID number transfers over to the Borrow DVDs table in the Member ID which also would hold some information from the DVD Information table, but I'm sure if i can figure out how to do this firstly, I will be able to apply the same rule and work it out myself.I have been trying to use a query statement like;

INSERT INTO [Borrow DVDs].[Member ID] [IN goodstuffvideos.mdb]
SELECT [Member Information].[Member ID]
FROM [Member Information]

but that has been coming up with error codes and completely not working.

Borrow DVDs table fields are: Borrow ID, Member ID, DVD ID Number, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit?

DVD Information table fields are: DVD ID Number, Title, Rating, Hiring Fee, Borrowing Limit Member?

Information table fields are: Member ID, Family Name, Given Name, Address, Town/Suburb, Postcode?

The error coming up is; Error in INSERT statement. Unable to parse query text.And under that it says The query cannot be represented graphically in the Diagram and Criteria Pane.

Binding A Combobox In A Datagridview To A New Table?

Apr 29, 2012

I have set up at DataGridView "cdgvExp" for data entry. cdgvExp.Datasource = ExpTab. The datagridview can accept new rows according to how many entries there are. I will then use the data in ExpTab. The Fourth colum is called "Lot" and is a combobox in the datagridview. The goal is to have the Combobox in the fourth column have the datasource be LotTab which is populated according to other choices in the form. I am hunting for something that would work like an independant combobox like cbLots.datasource = LotsTab

How do I dynamically set the Datasource and Datamember of a combobox that is already set up in a datagridview?

Fill ComboBox From Table In Access

Aug 6, 2010

I am creating a form for entering technical data about a part into an Access database. In the same form I have several ComboBoxs that need to have their lists filled from the same reference table in my database. I have a number and unit field for the twist and bending radius properties. I made the unit fields ComboBoxes and I am trying to bind them to referance table in my database called UnitsLength. The relevant structure is as follows....

Form: NewPartForm
Database: CableDataSet
Main Table: PartMechanical - with fields: TwistNom, TwistUnits, BendingRadiusNom, BendingRadiusUnits
Reference Table: UnitsLength - with fields: Unit, Shorthand, Conversion Factor

First tired the following settings....
Data Source: Other Data Sources > NewPartForm List Instances > CableDatase
Display Member: UnitsLength.Shorthand
Value Member: UnitsLength.Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]

But the lists didn't populate.... Then I tried these settings
Data Source: UnitsLengthBindingSource
Display Member: Shorthand
Value Member: Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]
But now every ComboBox displays the same value but still stores the data in the proper field... it just sets them all the same.
