Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition.I have a have a DataSet, created from (part of a) Access database. I have tow tables in it (say A and B). When I change something in table A, I need to get data from table B to complete table A.My approach was to use the RowChanged event inside a (Partial) Class of table A. For that to work however table B needs to be shared. (I don't like to refer to an instance.) I got it to work by changing the DataSets designer code, but don't want to do it all over again when the code is regenerated for some reason. So: would there be any way to have these tables shared by default?

I have a goal to have dropdowns populate using a string array as the datasource. Re-binding works well in the dropdown event, but if I make a change to a currently selected line item it won't change until I make the box dropdown again. Is there a way to keep this updated without re-binding the data?
Also, this is one of several dropdowns on an MDI child form. I'd like to make sure they're all synced. For instance if one has "Bob" selected and I change Bob's name to "Chris" I need all the "Bob" dropdowns to change to "Chris". Is there a way to do that without having to cycle through all the windows and call a rebind function?
Finally, I want to know if there's a better way to do it than the way I'm doing it. Since all these children have to be synced, the MDI parent holds the String array as a public property and the children each leech off of it.

I list folders in my combobox but I'm trying to sort the folders alphabetically and then numerically or vice versa.
My coding to populate my combobox is
With Combobox1.DataSource =
(From folder In New IO.DirectoryInfo("Path").GetDirectories
Select (folder.Name)
).ToArray
End With
Is it possible to sort the combobox?
I have folders that are numbered like 1, 50, 115, 189 etc.
These should display as
1
50
115
189
however they display as
1
115
189
50

I have a ComboBox that is bound to a List(of T).Now I type-cast the ComboBox.DataSource into List(of T)and add some more elements in the List.The items collection of the ComboBox doesnt get reflected and the new element does not show up in the ComboBox. Am I missing something ?

The combobox just populates with "System.Data.DataRowView" I know it is some command to read the correct data out of the table, is it setting up something like:
dim i as integer
for i = 0 to CompanyNames.length-1
companyadapter.fill(companynames.rows(i)]

I have a combobox which i am binding to a sortedDictionary list, so it displays in ascending order. My question is, I need to display "--Select--" as the first option. Is there any way to either:
1) add another item besides for the datasource
or
2) add an unsorted item to the top of the sortedDictionary

I'm trying to use reflection with LINQ on a sub that set datasource of all my ComboBox:
Usual Method:
' ACAmp Panel
cboACPanelAmp.ValueMember = "IDACAmp"
cboACPanelAmp.DisplayMember = "Description"
cboACPanelAmp.DataSource = m_Entities.ACAmps.OrderBy(Function(c As ACAmp) c.SortOrder).ToList
Want to use that sub
FillCbo(cboACPanelAmp, "ACAmp")
Private Sub FillCbo(ByVal cbo As Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors.UltraComboEditor, ByVal entityName As String)
cbo.ValueMember = "ID" & entityName
[code]....
I can't figure out the last part of the last line, the LINQ

I have to add item "Final Grade" to my cboQuarter. The thing is, my cboQuarter already has a datasource and I can't add the item "Final Grade" during drop-down. The error says, "cannot modify or insert (can't remember word by word) when it already has a datasource."

Appropriate Title would be: Bind comboBox Tag to database.I have a comboBox on form which is bounded but and I need to populate it manually. With some reading on net i have found a way but it is not working
I can populate my combo, select item in combo, update database but the problem is when I load my form it displays empty combo (combo is fulled with my custom data but nothing is selected it must select correct ItemText) and after selecting a value in combo, the value disappears as soon as combo losses focus .

public Enum ClaimStatus
Ongoing = 0
Completed = 1

With code above, how do I assign the value to the combobox while retrieving data from the table so that it point to the corresponding combobox item. For example, if the value of status_ID is 1 then the combobox should show "completed" in the datagridview.

I am using code similar to this to populate a combobox with items from a database. The display works fine, but when I try to get the combobox.SelectedValue it is returning a DataRowView, where I need an integer. Obviously this is becuase I haven't casted the value to an integer, but the function, CInt(cboPosition.SelectedValue) is throwing an InvalidCastException. Is there any way that I can get the ValueMember's type to be an Integer?

How can I get an item value from a Combobox using a datatable as it's datasource? Here's my code for constructing the combobox. This code works, that's why I'm not showing it all, but I want you to know how I'm creating the combobox.
Try
query = "SELECT category_id, name FROM categories ORDER BY name ASC;"
dbCommand = New MySqlCommand(query, dbConnection)
[Code]....
I want to display what is the item you physically see in the combobox that you select.

I have a ComboBox which is bound with a DataSource from (obviously) a Database. However, there are 659 different entries inside this Database and I was hoping to tack on AutoComplete.
I tried setting the Source to the ListItems since, after initialization and the data is bound, all the items necessary are in fact inside the ComboBox so I had assumed that it would pick that up. I was wrong. I tried using a Custom source but VS errored out saying that I couldn't do that since the ComboBox was bound.
My question is, how can I utilize AutoComplete's "Suggest" mode with a bound ComboBox?

I've gotten to a point where I'm trying to add a ComboBox to a UserControl, and to populate it from a collection which exists in code.
I've been getting along pretty much on monkey-see-monkey-do coding for the most part; copying and adapting existing code in order to get the next stage working, but this DataSource stuff has me stumped. I've been through a whole bunch of articles on MSDN this morning and am no closer to understanding than I was when I started.
Let me go through a few of the things that are messing with me, and hopefully you guys will be able to point me in the right direction:
1) None of the [UserControlName].vb files contains any code. All of the code for the UserControls is stored in [UserControlName]Model.vb files, and then code of the following sort is used:
<UserControl
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:l="clr-namespace:MySolution"
[Code]....
1.5) (using bullet points means I can't use <> brackets or code blocks later on. What the hell, markdown?) Anyway...
2) I'm pretty sure I only want a Static Source for the moment, as the items in the ComboBox aren't going to change during execution, at this time. Problem is, all the articles I can find about this are gigantic, complex things about creating XML readers, and populating DataGridViews and sorting data, and on and on and on. I just want to declare that I'm using a frealing List! A List I've already created in code.
So, yeah, I basically need to use a Public Property ComboBoxLines As List(Of String) from a class which isn't the same class as the UserControl itself as the DataSource for a ComboBox.

I'm creating a dynamic combo box and adding to a form. I'm trying to fill the combo box with a DataSource from an ArrayList and then selecting an item in the combo box based off a value from a property.Problem is, the combo box items don't get bound until after the Form_Load event has finished and the form is visible. So the combo box is empty when I try to set the selected index of the combo box. See code for what I'm doing in detail, and refer to comments in
[code]...
How to select the right selected index for combo box without a hack (Load timer or something stupid like that)?

I have a form where I have to use control arrays to create a multiple input form i.e. rather than processing one transaction at a time up to 16 transactions must be processed. The following really havent given me much problems at this moment labels and textboxes. I use a for construct to create all the controls including a combobox. This is where my question comes in this form combobox has to be linked to a table in a database. But furthermore and this is where it gets complicated for me anyway each seperate combobox must move independly if i select row 5 in the table in combobox 4 combobox 5 which is havent touched should still be on row 1. How do I accomplish this. I'm using a webservice. I have tried passing a loaded dataset . The code that loaded the dataset is as follows
Dim DSInfo As New Project1.localhost4.AccInfo
DSInfo.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
InformationData.Merge(DSInfo.GetBusinessJournals)
[Code].....
this code doesnt however provide a link to the table equallly creating a dataset in the combobox method ,loading it and then setting it as datasource also provides no link. I know i'm missing something.

I have a combobox where the SelectedValue on the combo is bound to a property on a business object.Everything works fine, but the property that's bound to the SelectedValue on the combo only gets updated when the focus leaves the control. I understand that the property doesn't get updated until the control is validated (loses focus), but I need it to update the datasource as soon as the dropdown is closed.I know I could probably leave focus from the control on the DropDownClosed event but I'd prefer something a little less kludgy.What's the best way to immediately update my datasource when the dropdown is closed?

[Code]...
The problem I now face is that the 'index' value of the combobox item for each row is in the field specFieldType which is populated into the datagrid.I need to be able to set the value of the ComboBox for each row when the form is opened, and also be able to save the index value of each row selection if any changes are made/saved.
