Textbox Search With Dropdown Results

Feb 18, 2010

I (think I) want to develop a custom control for my program in VB .net where I type into a textbox and simple search results will then be displayed underneath it (from a predefined set of items). Like auto suggest in google search.I believe the combobox does something similar to this but I think it only works on prefixes.At the moment I have a separate search form from which I use to filter a lot of possibilities and then use drag-and-drop to get the desired item into a TextBox.So ideally I want to combine this with a TextBox into which one can start typing at which point some results will be displayed and a user can select the item they want. (Say, an item from a list of products)

Search AD With Textbox Value And Return Results As Datatable?

Sep 27, 2010

Currently I have a gridview bound to a datatable which is populated with groups from the AD. I need to be able to add search functionality so users can type in part of a group name and have the results display only groups that fit their search criteria.

Here's what I have so far.

<asp:TextBox ID="searchParam" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><asp:button ID="btnSearch" runat="server" Text="Search" />
<asp:GridView ID="dgSearchDLs" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataKeyNames="cn" DataSourceID="ObjectDataSource1">

Search Data - Depending On The Results Change The Color Of A Textbox ?

Mar 7, 2012

I'm trying to gather some WMI data, search that data and depending on the results change the color of a textbox and append some text.I can acheive this using a select statement but was hoping there is a more elegant solution as what I have generates a lot of similar code At the moment, the WMI data contains two properties I'm interested "State" and "ReplicatedFolderName". The"State" value determines the color and text that goes in the text box, however there are different textboxes for each replicated folder name.What I have which works is

Display Search Results In A New Form?

Apr 13, 2011

I'm using visual studio 2010 and sql server 2005 to store my data. I'm creating a system that will allow me to find/search for records that are stored within the database. Thing is, i have 2 separate forms for this - one is the find/search page which allows you to enter in as many fields as you want (the more you enter, the more efficient the search is) and the second one is the find/search results page which will show the results from the search.

I'm not using a datagrid as i've already created these forms myself. I'm on a tight schedule because i've spent so much time already trying to get this to work. Do i need to create another dataset and tableadapter and bind the text boxes? how will i code the find/search button so the search will be carried out and the results will appear in the other form?

Displaying Search Results In A New Form?

Jun 6, 2011

i'm working with a sql (2005) database and using visual studio 2010. I've created a system where one of the forms is a find/search form. A user can enter in for example, a customerID and once they click on "find/search" the customerID will be searched in the database and if found, all relevant information about the customer will be retrieved and displayed in another form (find/search results page). I realise that this can be done using an SQL statement like follows

searchStr = "SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE CustomerID LIKE CIDTextBox.Text%"

What i'm unsure about is how to execute this SQL statement once the "find/search" button has been clicked and how to display the founded results in another form.

Have An Option To Pin The Window That Contains Search Results?

Jan 6, 2010

I would like to have an option to pin the window that contains search results. Currently our application has a search for for instance sales order. Then, when the end user opens a sales order, the search screen is closed, and the sales order is opened for view or edit. However, the users is complaining (with good reason) that they want an option to keep the search window open. Thus, something like a push pin/thumbnail that I can test the state before I open the sale order. If it is pinned, then leave the screen open. If not, close the search screen. I've seen a couple of 3rd party controls like this, but we like to stick to built in/native components only.

Added Record Always Show On Search Results?

Mar 18, 2011

I have written a code which adds some information to a database. No problem with that since the records get inside the database. My problem is that the record I added always shows up on my Search. I tried changing the variables so that none will have the same names between the two forms but it still shows.Example:

1. I added a record of a book which has an id of 1, name of Cisco, and total of 50. I added it thru the debug function.

2. I added a record of a book which has an id of 2, name of Link, and total of 30. This time, I added it directly on the database file itself.

2. I created a search button which will show records depending on the input of the user.If I type "1" for the ID, the first record will appear on the datagrid. If I type "2" for the ID, both records will appear. If I type "3" which I doesn't have any record with, the FIRST record will still appear. To summarize it, the record that I added through the program itself will always show up on the query results, no matter what I type into.

Dim adapter2 As New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter

Limit Active Directory Search Results

Feb 2, 2011

I have some code that builds a treeview and replicates our AD structure - this runs fine.

One issue i found is when searching through the DirectoryEntries it lists all items where i would like to limit them to Organisational Units only. I thought or using the DirectorySearcher but it seems that i would have two operations running at the same time probably doing the same thing but returning slightly different results just to limit to show what i need. Is there a way to tie DirectoryEntries/Entry with a DirectorySeracher to limit results to Organisation Units or is there a way to do this another way and still have it displayed under a treeview?

Search Dataset And Populate List Box With Results?

Jul 28, 2011

I do however have a slight background with VBA particularly with MS Access, so I am not completely lost.I am recreating my Access database application in VB.net.I created a new project and added an Access database through the wizard, which automatically created a dataset for the database. On one of my forms I have, esentially, a search form. What I want to happen is have a text box, and as I start typing display a search result from my customers table in the list box under it. So for example, I type "A" and all customer names that start with "A" are displayed in the list box.I continue typing with a "p" (full string is now "Ap"), then all customer names that start with "Ap" are displayed and so on...

I did search on my own first before posting this and found a few tips but cant really get it to work the way I want. This is what I have... I know I would put this code in the keypress event of my test box, but just until I get it working I attached it to a button to search. (I basically got this online and not even sure its the correct usage.

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
'Create a dataview[code].....

The item in red is where i get an error. it sucessfully builds and i open the find form enter a last name that I know is in the customers table, but I get the error "Cannot find Column ["whatever name i typed inthe text box"].So first of all is this the correct way of going about what I want to achieve?If so how can I get it to work?BTW the next step for the user would be to double click the customer in the list box they are searching for to open the customer Details form for that customer, so I would need an ID or Index attached to that item to be able to open that record in another form.

VB Help Doesn't Show Contents Or Search Results

Aug 17, 2010

When I launch VB Help and do a search it shows under "Local Help", "Exception from HRESULT:0x8004032E". It lists three results under "MSDN Online", but the large field to the left of it is entirely blank. If I double-click blindly in that blank area it brings up various topics as if they were listed there but invisible. Further, the region under "Contents" is also blank, as is the "Filter by:" field. If I click the down arrow by the "Filter by:" field it brings up an entirely blank menu. If I then click outside the menu box it brings up a message saying "The selected filter contains an error that prevents it from being applied.". What's wrong and how can I fix it?

Display Queried Results In Textbox Where Criteria In Another Textbox 1 Form

Jun 21, 2010

I have a database I am creating with about 50 users over a network. There are about 6 groups of users and these users are spread across 10 branches. I want to block/allow users from particular forms and views. For example I want branch users forms to be filtered by their branch number but depending on the group they are in they can only see some forms. i.e. 50 users, 10 branches, each branch has about 5 ppl of where 1 is in group A and 4 are in group B. I want all users that belong to branch 1 to see the information they enter, but Group B enter data but cannot approved or delete, and group A can enter, approve and delete. So then. On my login form I have the user type his/her username but the i want LEAVE function to update 2 textbox where I have named GroupName and BranchNo. Basically to run a query and look for the username and return in one textbox that user's groupname and the other textbox the user's branch no. This information will be used to filter forms and block the user from certain controls. This is the code I have so far but still can't figure how to display the results.

Private Sub UsernameTextBox_Leave(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles UsernameTextBox.Leave

Query/search Database Showing Results In Datagridview?

Mar 13, 2009

I am making a project in VB 2008 that has a Form (form1) that allows me to add new records to a database, and another Form (form2) that allows me to search for records in a database. I have done Form1 already, but my problem arrives in Form2 where I have to query the database. This form consists of 1 textbox (txt_search.text), 1 button (btn_search) and 1 datagridview (datagridview1). The name of my database is db_extras_test2003.mdb and the table I want to search records from is tbl_contacts.

I know +/- the SQL sintax to query the database (SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE columnname = (here i dont know if i put the variable name i have set for the txtbox, or the textbox itself)).I want this in a way that I (or other users) type in the textbox, hit the Search button and the results are shown in the datagridview (i can show the results in another way if it is better to do so).I have done the connection to the database already. The code I have so far is the following, but it doesnt work

Syntax To Search (and Return Results) In Two Dimensional Array

The following code works just fine:
Dim wksSheetNames(0 To xlsWB.Worksheets.Count - 1, 0 To 1) As String
Dim i As Integer = 0
For Each Wks In xlsWB.Worksheets
Wks.Activate()
wksSheetNames(i, 0) = xlsApp.ActiveSheet.codename
[Code] .....

What is the best vb.net based search method that would permit me to search for i.e. "Sheet2" and be able to obtain "Cats"? I attempted to ascertain the index number of "Sheet1" with:
Dim SheetArrIndex As Integer = Array.IndexOf(wksSheetNames, "Sheet1")

Then obtain the value "Cats"
wksSheetNames(SheetArrIndex, 1)

But I received an error message:
Code Line ->>>> "Dim SheetArrIndex As Integer = Array.IndexOf(wksSheetNames, "Sheet1")"
Error msg ->>>> "Only single dimension arrays are supported here.:
Obviously I do not know how to Search and Return the results of a 2D array.
