Retrieving Value DataRowView In Combobox?
Mar 11, 2010I have a problem in my code I can't seem to find a solution for.. One combobox is being filled up with a datatable like this:
CbUsers.Datasource = usersDAO.getUsers()
The getUsers() returns a datatable from my acces database. Users have a name and id, I want to use both of them but it should be something like this:
CbUsers.DisplayMember = "username"
CbUsers.valueMember = "userid"
In other words, I want to see the user name, but work with the user ID. So far the code worked, but it only displays stuff.
Now, in a method I want to use the id of the selected user in the combobox but that has been given me some trouble.
If I use this line I get a DataRowView: CbUsers.selectedValue
When I try to retrieve information from it, it throws an exception. I've tried lots of different code and it never worked..
If I put the DataRowView in a local variable and do this:
id = drv.items(0)
I only get exceptions..

Retrieving Value From Database And Selecting Combobox
Jan 8, 2012I am working on a small concept but since i am a novice in .net i am not getting the concept.I have 2 controls on the page.1st is Text Box: User enters the int value and that value is checked from database. In database there are 3 fields. One for ID, second for int value and 3rd for country.If the text box value in database is associated with country US then it should show US in 2nd control ( can be text box or combo box) in UI. Else for anything else it should show London.

Jun 10, 2010I have developed a drawing tool that allows the user to add graphically referenced database records to a picturbox.While for testing purposes i was simply loading any picture into the picture box what i want is on selecting a building name from a combobox that it automatically populates the related floor levels (that apply to that building)to appear as a selection in a 2nd combobox. On selection of say 1st floor i want to load the relevant floor plan (JPEG)image into the picturebox.The tool i have developed has an estate builder function where you ccan build your estate profile i.e specify the buildings and floors etc and these are added to a database file. What i would like to do is at the same time specify the floor plan JPEG file location and for this to be stored in the database in a way which would enable me to load the image automaticaly when i select the floor level

Combobox Bug - Text Typed In Combobox Appears In Another Control (textbox) On The Form?
Feb 20, 2012I have a tab control application, each tab loads a particular user control and each of those user controls will then add other user controls that are used amongst other the user controls. For example, I have an "ucQuotes" page and an "ucInventory" page, when the specific tab is selected, the "uc****" user control is loaded on that page, and in the case of "ucQuotes" and "ucInventory" they both use a control called "ucPartNumber"; a user control consisting of a combobox, textbox, and button. I have no issues reusing the shared user controls, in this case. My problem arises with my "ucQuickPrice" control, as it is always present at the bottom of the tab control form (separate from the tabcontrol, but on the same form), and it too uses ucPartnumber.
Here's my issue, as I type into the ucPartnumber combobox, the text I type does not appear in the combobox, it appears in the textbox of the ucPartnumber control that is being used on the tabcontrol page. There are no shared instances of ucPartNumber, nor do I have this issue between typing on one tab page and the text showing on the user control of another tab page.I tried just creating the ucPartNumber controls on the ucQuickPrice control, not adding a new instance of ucPartnumber on the .Load event, and the issue persists.
The combobox(s) in question are bound programmatically with about 40,000 items, ".datasource = dataset.tablename" not to a bindingsource. Autocomplete is set to none, I added code to utilize tool tips and the basic combobox filtering functionality. Is this a bug, or is there something I'm neglecting? I'm about 95% complete with this application, and this just happened today. I made the decision, to just reuse the ucPartNumber control on the ucQuickPrice control (originallly it's size and orientation would not fit, but I added some coding to detect what parent is adding ucPartNumber and to change its appearance accordingly). Before, I made this change, I did not have this problem. And, in trying to go back to how I had things set up before the change, the problem will not go away. if the whole control within a control verbage I used is a bit confusing, let me know and I'll try to better explain what is happening. At this point, I'm going to close and reopen vbexpress, as when I started this ordeal, vb started acting weird and wanted me to save all my work, it usually does this before locking up.
Change List Of Combobox A Based On Item Chosen From Combobox B?
Jun 17, 2011I am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.
For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.

.net - Make A Custom ComboBox (OwnerDrawFixed) Looks 3D Like The Standard ComboBox?
May 3, 2011I am making a custom ComboBox, inherited from Winforms' standard ComboBox. For my custom ComboBox, I set DrawMode to OwnerDrawFixed and DropDownStyle to DropDownList. Then I write my own OnDrawItem method. But I ended up like this:
How do I make my Custom ComboBox to look like the Standard one?
Update 1: ButtonRenderer After searching all around, I found the ButtonRenderer class. It provides a DrawButton static/shared method which -- as the name implies -- draws the proper 3D button. I'm experimenting with it now.
