TabControl.SelectedIndex Being Changed, But SelectedIndexChanged Even Not Firing?
Dec 20, 2010
I have a TabControl in an application that started behaving strangely. this program was converted from VB6 to VB .NET 2008, and used to refer to forms using their class names. In other words, I might have a form class called frmFoo. In the code for the program you might see:
[Code]...
I opened the program and read a file. This file contained a value that should have triggered the event handler. Without making the control visible, I can change the SelectedIndex property of the tab control without the event firing.I closed the program down again, and reopened it. This time, selected the parent tab that allowed the child tab (the one whose event I'm concerned with) to become visible. I then selected a different tab in the parent control, meaning that the child control was no longer visible. When I opened the same file as before, it fired the event.
I'm tempted to implement a flag that confirms that the control has been repainted or whether the parent tab has been displayed. I may have to fire the event in code if the flag isn't set. I want to reiterate that everything worked when the program referred to the forms by their class names and much of the arrangement of controls on the forms was done in the load event. Now the program creates variables and the arrangement of the controls is done in the form's constructor. I'm sure this has something to do with the problem I'm having, but I can't understand how.
Here is my code: Protected Sub BookingsGV_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BookingsGV.SelectedIndexChanged BookingID = BookingsGV.SelectedValue Dim query = From a In db.Approvers Where a.ApprovalStatus = False And a.BookingID = BookingID Select a.ApproverEmail() [Code] ..... When I click on a row for the first time it is selected but nothing fires and my details panel is not displayed. When I click for the second time I get the expected results.
.net 4.0, ASP.net, vb.net. I've got a usercontrol that is using an obout combo box. The obout is a cascading combobox that has 3 levels to it. when something it selected from the third level of the combobox, it is suppose to fire off a selectedIndexChanged event. This happens the first time that I select the usercontrol. The problem is if i want to go back and select something different. The selectedIndexChanged doesn't fire. I've set breakpoints and the AddHandler ComboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged
runs just like it did the first time i select the usercontrol. But the selectedIndex just doesn't fire the second go around. Was wondering what i'm doing wrong. Here is the selectedIndexChanged that is not firing
I have been looking for a solution to this for a while though and seen many posts that show me how to do it but yet I cannot get my SelectedIndex Changed event to fire when the DropDownList is changed.The DropDownList AutoPostBack is set to True,[code]
Is there a way to set the selected tab of a tabControl without the selectedIndexchanged event firing? e.g. Here the event fires when selecting myTabPage2 because myTabPage1 is the default:
Asp.Net 2.0 framewrok - VB.Net application I have a UserControl containing a Asp.Net DropDownList.
Things already researched and or tried:
The control gets bound to data on page load inside if not Page.IsPostBack (only loads once) ID proprety is set for control (ID = ddlMyControl) AutoPostBack is set to true EnableViewState on the control is set to true AutoEventWireUp in the UserControl declaration is set to true EnableEventValidation is set to false in the parent page
The control will not fire it's SelectedIndexChanged event no matter what I do.
I am trying to programmatically add an unspecified amount of new UserControls to a form. One will be added every time an entry is selected in a ComboBox contained within the UserControl. Problem is, the SelectedIndexChanged event fires completely erratically. Sometimes twice, sometimes 3 times, etc., but never just once. No matter how many times I set the combobox's SelectedIndex to -1, it fires at least once with a SelectedIndex of 0. Sometimes the Itemselected event fires multiple times inbetween SelectedIndexChanged events.
InvoiceEntry.vb snippet: Public Event ItemSelected As EventHandler Private Sub cboItem_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As System.Object, _ e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboItem.SelectedIndexChanged RaiseEvent ItemSelected(Me, EventArgs.Empty) End Sub [Code] .....
i modified my tabcontrol, to change the tab forecolor, which worked but now when i try to change selectedindex in code, the correct tab is highlighted but the tabpage doesn't change. if i minimize + restore the form, the previous tab is highlighted...
Protected Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click Dim li1 As ListItem Dim addList As New List(Of ListItem)
[code]....
Updates are happening on the load of a dropdownbox This has something to do with autopostbacks and the page load I think, can someone please help When I click the add button even if I have selected an item in the listbox, it will always return an error message. I don't think the listbox changedselected item is firing.
Now what I want to do is capture the event every time a value is changed in the combo box drop down (selectedindexchanged). When the index is changed, I want to grab the row number, and then I will grab the value of the now selectedindex and do some database updates with it.
I currently have tried to put together an event grabber when the combo box is changed, however it doesn't work correctly.
My code is:
Private Sub dgvRooms_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) _ Handles dgvRooms.EditingControlShowing
[Code].....
I put in a message box to check that it was capturing the event. I then noticed that it captures it more than once when you change the value.
The problem is when I go to click the down arrow on the row, the event is run once (message box show). Then you have to click a second time (event is run again with message box) before it shows the drop down list.
Then when you click on the value you wish in the drop down box it shows the message box (the only time I want it to run).
Then when I leave that row, it shows the message box two more times.
Effectively it goes to update the data 5 times, I only want to do it once.
I can not there is a pencil editing icon when you click on a row to the far left, and it appears when you leave the row, after already clicking on your value, it then checks on row leave that the values havn't changed, hence it runs two more times.
How do I make it so it only runs once on the value being changed?
Is there a way to disable the pencil editing, but still enable the combo box column to work? (be clickable and choose an option)
I have a combo box on a form. I have a SelectedIndexChanged event, that displays a message box when the combo box has another item from it selected. This works fine. However when the form is loaded, I initially want to set the current drop down box item from the database, then AFTER I have set the current value, I want this event to work. Problem is from the get go when the form loads it asks me the question as its being changed from 'no data' to then be populated with a bunch of data and an item selected.
Consider a simple VB.NET form with a couple of radio buttons and a checkbox.
Each of the radio buttons has a CheckedChanged handler setup that performs some action based on the state of the checkbox.
My problem is, when I initialize on the default radiobutton to be checked (from the designer properties window) the CheckedChanged event is fired for that radio button, but the Checkbox hasn't been initialized yet so I either get a null pointer exception or the wrong value is used in the handler. Either way, I don't want that handler code to be run unless the user picks a radio button after the form has been loaded.
I currently get around this by not initializing the radio button, but I need to set that default eventually and the best place is from the designer. I also can add a boolean field that's not set to true until the form is fully loaded and not process the events if that is false, but it's a dirty hack.
What can I do to prevent that handler from running its code?
I've recently run into an unexplainable issue regarding a windows form application I am working on. I've managed to isolate the issue to a single line of code whereby a single TabPage is removed from a TabControl, leaving no tabs left in the TabControl's collection. What happens next is a bit mystifying: my application proceeds to enter a state in which the main form's Activate event is fired subsequently followed by its Deactivate event. As a result, no matter where I click on the form, the application will activate for a split-second then immediately deactivate itself, thereby causing me to be unable to interact with any other GUI controls on the form. I thought maybe another thread is trying to interact with the deleted tab object, but the tab is created and destroyed on the same main gui thread. Does anyone have any insight that may point me in at least a new direction? Stepping through the debugger to the point in code where the tab is removed does not cause any exception to get thrown, so at first glance there doesn't appear to be any coding issues going on (although I would not be surprised that is actually the case!).
I have a listbox binded to a list of objects. For each list item I wanted to have a rectangle whose fill color is determined by a few properties of the binded object. So I did the following:
Made sure INotifyPropertyChanged was implemented on my object.Created a class to expose the properties I am interested in as attached properties.Binded the properties of the object to the attached properties of the rectangle Created a style that uses triggers to set the rectangle fill based on attached properties.
This works, but only the first time the property of the object changes. After that, the attached properties do not seem to be receiving notification when the data object's property changes. I have double checked and my data object is raising the INotifyPropertyChanged event.
I have a few reasons that I need this to happen, but suffice it to say that when I use the event handler for the RadioButtonList the sender object returns as just the RadioButtonList, and I need more information from the GridView because that's how I can uniquely identify which record my RadioButtonList is tied to.I added an "OnSelectedIndexChanged" property to my GridView but it doesn't fire/handle when I want it to. I'm assuming this has something to do with the way the GridView is designed to work. I also thought about using a hidden field, but I can't add it to the RadioButtonList so it won't help unless it's global. The problem with it being global is that I can't set the value uniquely to the record that has it's RadioButtonList being altered.
I changed my Username on my computer from i.e. "xxxxxx x xxxxx" to "Dennis"
VB 2008 during a compile gave me the following error: Error reading icon 'C:Usersxxxxxx x xxxxxAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0VSProjectApplication.ico' -- The system cannot find the path specified.
The file "VSProjectApplication.ico" is in 'C:UsersDennisAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0'
Somewhere in the VB2008 "configuration" files I believe that I need to manually change the old path to the new path.
I found the old path in the ".suo" file. The ".suo" file is not a text file. How can I edit the .suo file, save it so that it will work?
on my Form I have a DataViewGrid and some textboxes with a save button (they are filled with additional data of the selected row).Save is disabled first, when I change something in the textboxes the save button is enabled.When the user changes a gow in the grid, I want to ask before changing the grid row, if he wants to save (if the button is enabled).I am using RowEnter but this is too late, then the selected row already changed (and my textboxes already got new data)...What event can I use to ask if I should save stuff before the user changes a row?Something like BeforeRowChanging with a chance to cancel changing the row?
What I want to do here is that for every new item added into the combobox the label will +1 from the previous number. How do I write it out assuming I didn't assign the items a number [Code]
I have a GridView, without using SelectedIndexChanged, how can I retrieve the value of each row from GridView when click on each button in each row?this is my aspx code
I have a situation where I'm allowing users to enter new values into a combo box or selected existing values from the combo box's drop-down list. Is ther any way to tell whether a value was entered or selected? I've looked at the TextChanged and SelectedIndexChanged events and neither will do what I need to do.
I am using VB 2010 express edition, using windows form, i set my access database using the database connection wizard, and then use a combobox and bind it to the database using the properties windows, while other fields of database (set in textbox form), i drag it to my form. Running it, the values of textboxes are correct when i changed the value of my combobox. I want to use these values in textbox in drawing circle, whenever i change the value of combobox, the circle will also change using the combobox selectedIndexchanged event, my problem is, the value in textbox does not update in order to draw the circle, i have to use lostfocus or leave event to correct it. I make also a combobox and textbox not using this Ado.net(correct me if im wrong), it is working using the selectedindexchanged event only, what seems be my problem,
On a form I have a DataGridView. Inside this DataGridView i have several columns of which one is combobox and the others are textboxes.The combobox column is populated with values from a MySql database table using a query. So far so good. What i want next is to populate a certain textbox from that DataGridView, automatically after a value from the combobox is selected. When a value is selected from the dropdown list of the combobox, that value is used in a SQL query to find the value that will be displayed in the textbox.All the textboxes and the combobox are inside the DataGridView!)I did this using DataGridView EditingControlShowing event because a DataGridViewComboBoxCell does not have aSelectedIndexChanged event.The value is displayed correctly in the textbox, but the problem is that the value selected from the combobox disappears after the selection, and the combobox remains empty. I need the value to remain in the combobox after it was selected and after the corresponding value was inserted in the textbox!Here is the code for this:
Code: Private Sub test_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'Populating the combobox
I have combo box selectedIndexChanged events going on but I cant figure out how to get the value out of them so that when i hit the btn_ProjSal that the new salaries show up in the 3 labels. Here is my code. Doing it straight from the selectedIndexChanged event this works..but to get the button to pull the new values from each of those events is my issue.
Public Class Form1 Dim _emp101Sal As Decimal = 10000.0 Dim _emp102Sal As Decimal = 11500.0
For some reason I have always used the SelectedIndexChanged property to take action when something is clicked (I guess because this is the default property? ie when you double click the listbox this is what you get). However I have often come across problems when I try to unselect all the items in the listbox by calling
Here is the basic problem. When a listview is set to multiselect = true, the electedIndexChanged event fires for every row. This is very bad in a situation like the following psuedo code:
MultiSelect in listView (many items) Clear any items that are selected in GridView find that item in gridView using a brute force compare
I have a datagrid view on a page that I'm making and I want to be able to open another form when a user "selects" an entry. I've tried looking through the documentation on how to do that but can't seem to find any. Does anyone know of an easy way to accomplish this task?
I have two listviews with many items present. When the user clicks an item in ListViewA, I highlight items in ListViewB. I use the SelectedIndexChanged event of A, loop through the items in B and set some highlighting colors, ensuring visible etc. This works fine.However... it would be nice to allow the user to MultiSelect. The problem here is the when selecting 10 items in A (holding the shift key down), the SelectedIndexChanged event fires 10 times, once for each item added into the selection. This is a real pain since my highlight sub then runs 10 times and it takes 10 times as long.Now... I had a plan to deal with that, I detect the shift key being held down and inhibit the event until its raised. That works fine too.But... if I have 10 items selected, and then I click one new one, so 10 are being deselected and one being selected, the SelectedIndexChanged event fires 11 times. So my situation has not improved. Any ideas how to wriggle out of this?
