Looping Through ToolStrip Items To Uncheck?

Jun 23, 2011

When one is clicked, would like to be able to have it checked, and uncheck all the restCheckOnClick will not uncheck the rest (I want an effect similar to radio buttons).My first plan was to loop through each item in the ToolStrip Items() array, however these are ToolStripItems (which are a base class) and thus do not have the Checked property. So then I thought about using CType to convert them to ToolStripButtons, which do have the Checked property, except what should I do about the ToolStripSplitButtons?I basically want to say, "if this ToolStripItem is as ToolStripButton, then uncheck it"

ToolTip Format In ToolStrip Items?

Oct 22, 2009

I have a little issue with the tooltip and with a toolstrip control...

I added the tool tip and set the in toolstrip control the ShowItemToolTips to True, and set for each button that i have the correct text. When i run the application when i put the mouse over the buttons the tool tips are showed, but for example the icon doesn't show up, i only get the rectangle with the text...

If i put text in the tooltiptext for the toolstrip control it works fine.

ToolStrip On A Databound Form - Toolstrip Buttons Don't Receive Focus In The Normal Way ?

Mar 24, 2009

I really want to make use of the toolstrip and databinding but these two technologies keep conflicting with each other. I think the root cause is something to with the fact that the toolstrip buttons don't recieve focus in the normal way.

I invite you to try the following:-

1. Create a form and put some text boxes a tool strip with a save button on it.

2. Write a query or sproc to get a datatable back and bind your text boxes to the field in the datatable.

3. In the code behind your Save ToolStripButton put some code that makes an arbitrary change to a field on the dataset (it doesn't matter whther this field is bound to a text box or not). eg:-
m_DataTable.Rows(0).Item("CommissionRatePerc") = "0.0000"

4. Put a breakpoint in the save and run the form.

5. Make some changes in the text boxes. Do not leave the last text box but rather click save while a text box whose contents you have edited still has focus.

6. When your code hits the breakpoint, query the value of the data table field that is bound to the text box you were editing when you clicked save - it will still contain the unedited value. Unless you do something about it that unedited value is going to get saved back to your DB.

We did get around this problem by explicetely setting the focus to another control on the form before saving. That worked most of the time because it prompts the text box to flush it's value back to the datatable (nb EndEdit does not work, although you'd have expected it to). However, and this is the reason I suggested you add a line of code that changed a value in the underlying datatable in step 3, if you change a value in code in this way before the value from the text box get's flushed back then it doesn't seem to matter what you do, the user's current edit is simply lost. They will still show in the text box, though, leading your user to believe that the change has been committed when it hasn't. Our final solution is that we never ever change a value in the adtaset in the code behind our toolstrip buttons. That's working but it's a pretty big restriction.

Add Code To List Boxes Items?

Jan 31, 2012

I am surely a new self-learner programmer using VB 2010 Express edition and I have a problem on writing my first code. I have designed my form and I only want to add code as events. The IDE already adds the methods when I double-clicked the button which I want to add the code on.

This question may be good on the IDE forum, but I just thought to ask it here because there may be more experts here on VB language functions. I have added the MenuSctripItems such as File, Edit and so on. How do I write the code for New, Open, Save, etc under file menu? It may sound boring or even silly, but I am here to learn and your contribution is both for me, you and the MSDN.

Re-code The Menu Items Cut, Copy, Paste?

Jul 27, 2010

I am developing an MDI Text Editor, well more like upgrading my standard text editor, I am trying to re-code the menu items cut, copy, paste and so on.I have written this sub routine for the "cut" click event handler

Private Sub CutToolStripButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CutToolStripButton.Click, CutToolStripMenuItem.Click
Form2.RichTextBox1.Cut()
End Sub

Form2 being the form I designed for my child forms, the idea is that the menu control is used by Form1 the parent form, I thought that if the cut menu item looked at the RichTextBox in form2 then it would cut the line of text. it doesn't work?

VS2008 Query - Modify Code To Search For Items Containing Specified Characters

Jul 3, 2010

SELECT ContactID, FirstName, LastName, Male, Female, Email, Address
FROM Contact
WHERE (FirstName LIKE @FirstName + '%')

The above query works and returns values on first names that begin with whatever item I type in a text box.

How can I modify that code to search for items containing specified characters instead of just searching for items that begin with the specified characters. I would still need to use a wildcard because it is a search field. see below for an example

For example can I query the FirstName column to display people who's name contain the letters "an" in that order a before n but anywhere within the word e.g.

- Anna
- Jane
- Samantha
