Sorting Numerically With A Datagridview Bound To Xml?
May 20, 2011
I've been searching for days for a solution. I've scoured the internet and other forums and tried so many things at this point that I think my brain may explode.I receive a large XML file from a third party vendor. I have converted the XML file to a a dataset and use the dataset to fill a datagridview with a specific table. I do not have a schema from the vendor and the XML file does not contain any data type information. The datagridview populates fine but all columns are defaulted to type string. This presents a problem when sorting columns that should be numeric - they sort by string comparison instead of logically numeric. I've tried numerous ways to attempt to convert the datatable columns to integer to no avail.

I am a programmer from Uruguay. I have read the other similar questions about my problem, but nobody has given the answer I need. I use VB .net 2005 and its datagridview. I bind it to a dataset which is populated with a table of MySql. And when I sort the numeric columns, it sorts them as string, not numbers. I have tried casting the data to integer in the sql statement, but it doesn`t work. I changed the format of the column of the datagridview to single or long but it didn't worked either. I really can't believe it is happening, it is a so common need! I thingk It should be totally automatic.

I need to sort the items in a visual basic listbox numerically, that is, I have a collection of numbers I would like to be sorted increasingly.
I tried to simply use the listbox's Sorted property, but found that it treated the numbers as if they were strings, that is, it would look at the first digit, then the second, etc. to determine the order. That meant that 13 would show before 5, for example.
I thought of dumping all the numbers into an array, soring the array, and then pushing them back to the listbox, but, honestly, I don't know how to go about the sorting. I figured the array would be useless, since the listbox already acts as a pseudo array.

I have a datagridview which is bounded to a table m_table constructed in my code. A column named price has decimal type.
DGV.DataSource = m_table
DGV.Columns(columnPrice).ValueType = System.Type.GetType("System.Decimal")
All prices are in decimal. But I found that when clicking the column header of DGV, the price column is sorted like a string. For example:
9.0, 13.5, 8->13.5, 8, 9.0
But I want sort numerically, that is 8,9.0,13.5
I wonder why decimal type cannot be sorted numerically. How to achieve this?

In Visual Basic 2008 or 2010. How to sort numerically in this format:
From this:
"basketball" 900,000
"golf" 300,000
"bike" 600,000
"snow boarding" 800,000
"mountain climbing" 500,000
"roller blading" 100,000
"soccer shoes" 400,000
"football team" 700,000
"field track" 200,000
To this numerically:
"roller blading" 100,000
"field track" 200,000
"golf" 300,000
"soccer shoes" 400,000
"mountain climbing" 500,000
"bike" 600,000
"football team" 700,000
"snow boarding" 800,000
"basketball" 900,000
I would like to have a form application that I can drag n drop the words with their numbers into a Textbox1.text and have the Textbox1.text do the sorting.

In 2007 I created a program that reads weather data into a listview. When a user clicks on the column header it fires off the column click event handler which calls the Sort Wrapper function. The Sort wrapper will re-order items either in ascending or descending order.
I have never been able to get negative integers to sort properly. I have created a stripped down listview program with a few numbers in the grid for testing. (see attached program zip file).When you run the program, click on the column header that says "Val" and you will see right away that the numbers do not sort correctly.

I have a list of strings lets say the items are like this:
item_1
item_2
item_4
item_10
item_8
item_11
If I do list.sort() I get the following
item_1
item_10
item_11
item_2
item_4
item_8
Somehow I need to get these in order numerically but I am dealing with strings not numbers.

I'm killing myself and dehydrating trying to get this array to sort.I have an array containing directories generated by;Dim Folders() As String = Directory.GetDirectories(RootPath)
I need them to be sorted so they appear like in windows explorer in win7 / vista. -- numerically and alphabetically by folder names.The folder names contain both letters and numbers, sometimes letters only or numbers only.

I have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...

Dim dtParm As DataTable = MyDataSet.tblParameter
Dim dgv As DataGridView = Me.dgvResultNum_DataGrid

There is something strange going on with my datagridview.
I've a data adapter that fills the underlying data table from a database. Then I assign this datatable as datasource to the datagridview Then I add a row to the datagridview and immediately I need to update the table in my database (as soon as user leaves the newly created row).
At this moment I have more rows (+2, not +1) in my datagridview than in the underlying datatable (the new row doesn't exists yet in it so the data adapter .Update method doesn't write anything to the database).
When DataGridView's .RowLeave event fires the undelying datatable is not yet updated. I've a question - is this behavior normal?

I have bound an array of a class with 3 public strings.
When I run the form app and in the form load call I bind the array to the DGV all works fine and the DGV is fully populated. However, if I change an item in the array I had expected it to change in the DGV.. it doesn't. Or rather, it only updates if I click on the cell that should have changed.

I have a datagridview bound to a table adapter. It displays data just fine. Part of this data is a comments field. When a user wishes to edit this I open a seperate form with the data in a a text box. After the user edits this text, how do I update the database / datagridview?
I can update the datagridview cell's value but that doesn't propagate to the database until the focus is removed from the row. I tried BeginEdit and then EndEdit (which should commit) but apparently it needs to move to another row!

I have a form that contains a datagridview control that is bound to a dataset in design mode. This form contains various other textboxes and combobox controls as well and allows users to create and view Work Orders. It also has a Button control ("New W/O"), that when pressed will clear all values from all the controls on the form. My problem is that it's not removing the rows of data in the dgv. The code that I used to try and clear out the dgv is[code]...
How can I reset the dgv to retain it's default column headers but remove all the rows for the selected W/O?

Okay so I have a datagridview that is bound to a dataset. I have a column called type is a string char of either C, R, A, or V. The problem is that I want to sort the datagridview rows using that column and do so in the order I just gave so I want rows with C on top and then R and then A and then V. Because these aren't alphabetical, how could I sort the items this way? I did look into the icomparer, but really wasn't able to figure out how that works.

I have two columns in a datagridview, one is a year and the other is a month. These two form a date, but unfortunately the structure in the database I'm forced to use is that of two integers. I need to sort the rows by date, using these two integers. I tried creating an unbound column with a date, but sorting this way seem quite difficult. So, I thought I could do a multicolum sorting by year first and then by month using two columns

Has anyone here tried putting a combobox to a bound datagridview? The selected value of the combobox will depend on the value of the corresponding column in the database.
I have a datagridview. When the user clicks the edit button, the application fetches the records from the database and binds it to the datagriview. But I want to show the Gender Column as combobox with selectable 'Male' and 'Female' values.
How could I add a combobox to bound datagridview?

I have a datagridview bound to a datatable and i want to add a line to it. I cannot add al ine to the dgv, because it is bound so i add the line to the datatable using Me.BurdensCRMDataSet.dtlines.Rows.Add() however this seems to add two rows - let me explain a little further: A dgv always seems to have what i would call a 'blank next' row, a blank row at the end of the dgv, which as soon as the user populates with data another blank row appears after that - maintaining this 'blank next' row provides a simple and easy way for users to keep manually adding data to a dgv
This also seems to work fine when the dgv is bound to a datatable, an empty dgv would have 1 row (the 'blank next' row) and the datatable would have 0 rows, each time the user populates the 'blank next' in the dgv it is added to the datatable and a 'blank next row is added to the dgv, so the dgv now has 2 rows and the datatable has 1 - and so on and so forth However, I cannot programatically populate this 'blank next' row on the datatable, because it doesn't exist yet in the datatable, only in the dgv and if I programatically populate it in the dgv it isn't added to the datatable and a 'blank next' row isn't added to the dgv

I am trying to use a bound datagridview and through the add button on the bindingnavigator adding a new row to the bindingsource and then pass two variables to the datagridview in the new row so they can be associated with the proper ids. I then have a save button for when the end user is done inputting the rest of the data for that record.
The code is below:
Private Sub BindingNavigator1AddItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
AddressesBindingSource.AddNew()
AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("caseNumber").Value = Me.CaseNumberTextBox
AddressesDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells("interestID").Value = Me.InterestIDTextBox
End Sub

I have a List of an object, set to DataSource of a BindingSource, set to DataSource of a DataGridView. Then I added a DataGridViewButtonColumn which I want a click to remove that record from the collection. So I simply call collection. RemoveAt (e.rowIndex) from the DataGridView CellClick event. However this produces an IndexOutOfRange Exception; "1 does not have a value"..
So is happening here? I have maybe a vague idea, but would like to understand exactly which events are failing etc.. and what do i need to do to perform this action properly?
EDIT: This seems not to happen if I use a BindingList.. But when using a List, I get this problem..

I am using Visual Basic 10/I have 2 datagridview tables. The main datagridview can be edited by the user; adding/removing rows, changing data in text/combo columns, sort, etc. 2 columns from the second datagridview are a carbon copy of 2 columns from the main datagridview. I have achieved this by binding both datagridviews to a dataset. So that when I edit the main datagridview the effects are automatically replicated in the second datagridview.
Before I bound the datagridviews to the dataset I had a fully functional system to save the content of the datagridview to a text file and read it back in. This has now stopped working with the error message 'Can't edit a bound datagridview programmatically'.
