View 6 RepliesI have a weird question and I honestly hope you understand what is happening here: I design my form (using VB.NET) and put on it a few textboxes, comboboxes and a listview. After the design, I want to adjust the TabIndexes for each control on the form. On the right-hand side of the interface is the property box.
I then select the 'TabIndex' property item and enter a number key (for instance 0) for that selected item. I then select the next textbox control and enter the next number (for instance 1) WITHOUT re-selecting the 'TabIndex' property item. As soon as I select the combobox or listview control, the currently selected property item jumps to 'Items' or 'Collections' and does NOT remain on the 'TabIndex' property item. Why is this happening? Everything worked fine and all of a sudden this starts happening. Should I reset the editor settings or how can I resolve this matter?
I have a listbox with several list items added. I want that as user click on an item, I should be able to show its property. This should change for different items. For example (hypothetical) : Listbox has numbers 1 - 10. Now when I select 1 I should be able to set property - Name, Lastname, Colour, Age.
When I select 2 I should be able to set - Age, Hair Colour (clr shows), Weight, Date. When I select 3 then - City (combo box drop down), Country, Age only. This way value changes for diff items. One way is to put them in property grid and show them. Though this looks nice but adding/removing items in that is not easy. You need to have a class that refer that to prop grid. Do I have to code for each classes for all values in listbox or is there an easier way to manage items in property grid. If you think prop grid is not the right tool for such an activity then can you suggest something else.
I have a simple user control, which is essentially just an AutoCompleteBox with some custom logic.
For a specific instance (a collection of Persons), I want it to look like this:
<sdk:AutoCompleteBox Name="myACB" ItemsSource="{Binding People}" FilterMode="StartsWith" MinimumPrefixLength="2" ValueMemberBinding={Binding LastName}>
[Code].....
I want the DisplayMember property to be the property name to display for whatever kind of custom collection (persons, cars, etc) I have bound to the AutoCompleteBox.
I don't think I can modify the datatemplate programmatically. Is there a way I can do this with binding (relative source)?
Ok, so I have a listview on one form, and when a button is pressed it opens up a new form with the contents of the selected listview item and it's subitems in a series of textboxes. The user can then change the data in the textboxes and either press save to make the changes or cancel to close the window. What command would I use to change the selected listview item and subitems to whatever is in the boxes?
this is the code that populates the boxes:
Private Sub Form_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim appeditcontents As String = main.passlist.SelectedItems(0).ToString
[Code]....
is there a way to dynamically assign value to a propertyso I have a class

I have written a Type Converter for a TrackBar. I was wondering if there is any way to get the value being changed in the Dropdown so I can update the PropertyGrid item value dynamically instead of just at the end?
Here is the Type Converter code:

Public Class Slider
Private editorService As IWindowsFormsEditorService
Private m_Value As Integer

View 1 RepliesSo Im iterating through the properties of a class. For each property Im iterating through a datatable until I find a column name with the same name as the property.
No worries so far, here's the isse: Once I've found a match I want to set the class's property to the value in the datatable but I'm having difficulty referencing the property as it has to be done through a variable.
Code:
Dim per As New Person
Dim t As Type = per.GetType
For Each p As PropertyInfo In t.GetProperties

View 1 RepliesGreetings, I'm sure there's a simple solution to my question, but I haven't figured it out yet. I have a Form with 12 Label objects L1-L12. I'm trying to set the ".Text" values of those label objects with the values of the fields in a Database table,,, Here's what I have. It DOES NOT get errors. But it doesn't work either.

how I can get this to work. I want to distinguish dropdown controls inside a repeater control. I understand now about the lifecyle and how the buffer is already writen, but what are my alternatives? Here is what happens

myRepeater.DataSource = repeatTimes
myRepeater.DataBind()

How can I do this:
Dim oMyObject As New MyObject
oMyObject.DoSomething("Parameter1","Parameter2")
The "DoSomething" and the two parameters are dynamically provided from another script. They are stored in a string object in this script: sAction & sParameters. My question is how can I dynamically pass the "sAction" to the object oMyObject.For example oMyObject.sAction (where sAction should be the value stored in the sAction string). The example will probably not work. Is there a way to do this? The idea behind is to avoid having to write each function hardcoded, like:
If sAction = "DoSomething" then
oMyObject.DoSomething(sParameters)
ElseIf sAction = "AnotherThing" then

Is It possible to get the arguments' values used in the previous execution method?
For example:
Public Sub GetPreviousMethod()
Dim stackTrace As StackTrace = New StackTrace
Dim stackFrame As StackFrame = stackTrace.GetFrame(1)
'MethodBase: Get the previous method
Dim methodBase As MethodBase = stackFrame.GetMethod()
End Sub
If I use 'methodBase.Name', It works 100% and return the method name. I got the arguments' names of this methodBase using Reflection, and is It possible to get dynamically the values of the arguments?
I would like to format output to a property of a custom control I have made.For instance I have a literal control in my control and when populated I want to check if it is longer than 30 characters long, if so, then go to the next space (as to not cut the word off) after the 30th character and place a <br /> tag in to place the next 30 characters on the next line.So if there were 100 characters in a string, there would be 3 line breaks in the label.I have the looping worked out to get the label populated but cannot get how to dymaically create the array based on the string lenth property and index of method.

how to assign a 1-dimensional array value I get from a function directly into an element in a 2-dimensional array. An example would be
Dim Results(7)() as DoubleResults(0) = myFunction() ' returns an array with 5 doubles What is the correct syntax for this, if any? I'm still having a bit of difficulty switching over from Python arrays, which work a lot better, it seems.
I have created a dropdownlist which I choose wizard way to fill data in it. and its property like:
DataTextField=Item
DataValueField=ItemCode
I go to properties of this dropdownlist and then I add Items property as the following:
Enabled=true
Selected=false
Text=---choose---
Value=-1
And the code behind is that:
dim strItem as string= ddlItem.selectedItems.text
if ddlItem.selectedItems.text.trim="---choose---" then
Label1. text=" You haven't choosen any items yet!"
exit sub
else
Label1. text=" You have choose"
end if
But when I start debugging this:
strItem always gets "---choose---" text eventhough I choosed other items.
I need to create a sample question types web form in VB.NET which allow user to the following:he user selects the control type from dropdown (TextBox, RadioButton, ListBox etc). Generate controls dynamically based on the control type on the webform.It will always show the TextBox (where user writes the question) and (generated control - TextBox, RadioButton, ListBox etc) and save those values to the database.
View 3 RepliesI have a WPF application that allows users to create questions of all different types which depending on the type will use a textbox,combobox,checkboxes, or radio buttons to allow the user to answer the question after they build some sort of questionnaire. My question is what is the best way to keep track of the answers across all the different controls after the controls are created and the questionnaire is created on the fly. Right now, i'm looping through all the containers and getting the values based on the controlType.
View 1 RepliesHow to set up a Chart using the new MS Chart control. I want to be able to populate the data via SQL because the user will be able to dynamically change the values via drop downs. The format of the data will be the same (Qty, Time Period) but the Focus of that data will change. I'm honestly not sure where to start, I can draw the chart but I have no idea how to populate it with data via code so it can be changed dynamically.
VBE 2010, and I'm hitting an AccessDB
I am writing a mvc 3 application and part of its function is to send out confirmation emails along with an assortment of other emails.. I have the body's for the different types of emails stored in a database table.. Getting the values out of the table and dropping them in a email body using System.Net.Mail isnt a problem at all... What I need to do is somehow put somekind of variable marker in the body which is in the database table and then somehow parse the body text when its dropped into the email body to find the variable marker and put the correct value in it's spot..Code snippet of what I have so far is below:
Keep in mind that this will be a rather large body and there are a few places values will have to be dropped in.. I was thinking of having it use something like this:
Long mail body ^^Name^^ has been approved for classes starting on ^^Date^^ at the ^^Place^^ located in ^^Location^^..
When the code loades the text from the body when ever it comes across a variable marked with ^^ it would put the correct information in its place...
Dim _content As email = db.emails.Where(Function(f) f.ref_name = "Confirmation")
Dim _body As String = _content.email_body.ToString
