In lack of a Value property I planned to use Classes for storing Text and Value properties for my ComboBox items. So far I've succeeded.Here is my class:
Public Class clCombobox
Public cname As String
Public cvalue As Integer[code]......
It seems like this works so far. But how do I get data back. Like if I want the value of the selected CheckBox item? I tried using:
CType(cmbCombobox.SelectedItem, clCombobox).Value() Did not work.
I have 13 variables, all called Items1, Items2, Items3 and so on. I have a combo box with items in, each time I click a button I want it so whatever is selected is stored in a variable and if the button is selected again then it stores whatever is selected in the next variable. I know all the code for selecting items in a combo box and transferring it to a variable but the problem I cannot do is the part where each time a button is clicked it stores whatever is selected in the combo box to the next variable.
View 9 RepliesI have used the command:
For Each Proc as process in process.getprocesses
Combobox1.Items.Add(Proc.MainWindowTitle)
to populate a combo box with the list of current process windows, however for every process that doesnt have a main window title there is a blank space, is there a way that I could tell it to not insert the item if it's mainwindowtitle field is blank?

View 5 RepliesI have a datatable which loads data from an Excel Spreadsheet. One of the columns in the Excel SpreadSheet was of type "Date/Time" in which date values are stored. Now I appended the datatable with three new rows and I wanted to store string values in these rows using the code below. However due to the fact that one of the columns are date/time type, an error is generated as date/time column does not accept string value. I have two questions
a. Is it possible to store string value in date/time DataColumn?
b. Is there a remedy to this situation? [code]
my program downloads into a combobox every item(line) that is in a text file located on a server.
Every line in the text file ends with "a)" or with "g)".
Now I just want to make 3 radio buttons:
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "g)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox only the item ending with "a)"
- one that will allow the download in the combobox of both (I already know how to do).
How can I do so?
To download the entire list in the combobox I do:
Dim List As String = client.DownloadString("http://mywebsite.com/mytextfile.txt)Dim lines As String() = List.Split(New String() {ControlChars.CrLf}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
ComboBox1.Items.AddRange(lines)
I have a list of names in a database and what i want is to get all of these names and display them in a label or a text box to the user on the website. I have tried to do this using a for loop but it is always overwriting the label each time. I have a list of 10 different names in the database and what it is doing is putting the first name in the label and then overwriting this with the second name and so on until it reaches the last name. I think i need to store each of the names from the database into an array or an arrayList and then make the label display all of the contents from the array or arrayList. The for loop i have used for this is:
Dim g As SQLadmin = New SQLadmin()
g.DB("SELECT nameOfPerson FROM Persons")
For i As Integer = 0 To g.array.GetLength(0) - 1
[code]....
i can select the names from the database and store them in an array then make the label display each of the names.
I have a combobox that is bound to a dataset. The dataset has 3 columns of data. at any given time there could NOT be any data in the dataset.
When someone selects an item from the box I want to store data from 2 of the columns of the row they selected.I do the 'store' in the selectedindexchanged event.
so currently I am assigning each column/row value to a property from a datarowview i get from combobox.selecteditem.
Code:dim column1 = drv.row.item(0).tostringdim column2 = drv.row.item(1).tostring
But I am getting NullReference exceptions all over the place when there is not data.So i have to wrap it all in a try catch and assign nothing to the properties when the Null exception fires.
I want to also validate that there is a selection made. There must be a selection made if there is no data in the DS fill it.I do this in the combobox validate event.
It just seems like there is a better way to check for no data coming from the combobox.
I wish there was a way to do some sort of .count on the datarowview you get back from the combobox.selecteditem but anything i have found also gives a null ref exception if used.
Also what is used to programmaticly change the selected item?

I 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.

Normally to add a item to a combobox I just do:
<option value="310">Willmington (310)</option>
But in a vb.net 2008 I am working a windows app to do the same thing, and for the life of me cannot figure out how.This is what I have currently.
While Reader.Read()
frmMain.cboType.Items.Add(Reader("TypeName").ToString)
End While
[code].....
To add just the item, I can use
combobox1.items.add("New Part")
How can I attach a Value (Like an ID) to this item that can then be accessed from
SelectedID = combobox1.SelectedValue
?
How do you add item(s) to the top of a combobox instead of the end?

i have two tables. i bound one combo linked to another table value.
my problem is if user wants to add new value to combo how can i add that value to my combo as well as new row to table...

table 2:
ItemID,ItemName
i create form for create and modify table1. and i put combo in my form cmbItems for list of all items.
cmbItems.DisplayMember = ItemName
cmbItems.ValueMember = ItemID.
now if user want to add a new item in this form what should i do... and new item should be added in database also....
I have a combobox that is bound to a dataset (via datatable and datatableAdapter). The combobox displays the current data in the table as it should.I have programmatically added the string "ADD..." to the list at the form.shown event:[code]when the user then click on (select) "ADD...", i open a new form to allow the user to add a new item to the list.The code i have behind the "ACCEPT" button on the new form stores the NEW value to the DATASET. I have verified this by previewing the data in the dataset.My problem is getting the combobox to reflect the changes to datatable to which it is bound.[code]

View 2 Repliesvs2005 -vbI have a combobox that gets its values from a call to the db. I have programatically added the list values for the box to match all the possible values that could be pulled from the DB. The user can update these values and update the db entry.I would like to be able to display any entries from the db, however, there is one value on the list that I don't want the user to be able to change the combobox's value to. I'm hoping there is some way to to 'hide' or '.visible=false' for just this one item when the list drops down so the user can't select that value.The box sits in a datagridview. I realize I could use the 'cellbeginedit' & 'cellendedit' events to prevent this action, but I consider that to be a last resort, as I think not showing it on dropdown is preferable code-wise.

I have a combo box with a list of book conditions. When a book is loaded into the form, the condition the book has needs to be selected. How can I do this? Here's what i have: Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor just for example, how would i select "Good" WITHOUT USING THE INDEX? The database knows the condition text, and condition id. I need to select the condition in the combo box with either. However, I don't know how to add the condition id to the items in the combo box. How would I do this in Visual Basic 2008? **EDIT** I forgot to mention, although i am using a database, i am NOT using SQL Server. I just need a way to select it with a variable containing either the id or condition.
