View 8 RepliesWhat I'm just trying to do is the following:I need to fill a combobox from a dataset, but I have to translate the entries before displaying them. That's why I assume I have to use a loop to add the Items.
View 2 RepliesI'm populating the datagridview at runtime based on user input. The issue I'm having is that the the combobox is displaying blank. The item I need is in the dropdown (I've added it), but I can't get it selected by default. I've tried the display member but that's not working.
View 1 RepliesI want to use a CB where I can define the display/value combinations. The same way a radiogroup works.I have been searching for hours and can't find an answer. This is commonin other languages but apparently in VB it is only done when using a Bound CB.
View 4 RepliesI have an unbound DataGridView that I am trying to fill with data, but am having a problem with the combobox column. I create the columns like this:[code]That works, and I have my columns like I want them, but I don't know how to add a row AND select the appropriate item in the combobox. I am adding items like this:[code]I can't figure out how to set the combobox column. And to top it off, since I changed the column from a text column to a combobox column, the grid is throwing exceptions, although it doesn't tell me what's wrong, it just tells me to handle the dataerror event, and all that I can get from that is e.Context = 3 and I can't find out what that means. Probably a type mis-match, but I can't find the proper way do select from the combobox. The rows add OK, but when I scroll the combobox column into view the first item is selected then the errors get thrown.

I am working with an Unbound DataGridView. I would like to vary the contents of a second combobox based on what is selected in the first. I have code to add the columns and populate the first combobox, but I can't figure out how to do the second one since it can (and usually will) have a different list for each row AND the list must change when the selection in the first is changed.
View 1 RepliesI just spent over an hour looking up on the internet how to fill a combobox for each row in a datagridview that is unbound. I am adding the rows manually by code. The columns are already there and one of them is set to a combobox.
how to add two items to the combobox? Each row will have the same items available in the combobox.
I am designing a form to Enter new City Name list where i accept following fields
CityName, District, State, Country, Pin.
because a State names and Country names can be retrived from earlier entries, i want to allow user to select desired name from a list in combo box or a list in Auto Complete Custom Source for text box, to do this i have added a Table Adapter to underlying DataSet having Query "SELECT DISTICT STATE FROM CITY ORDER BY STATE".
Now, how do i use this Table Adapter to fill the ComboBox List without binding
And also Custom Source List for TextBox.
I 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?

I have a combo box with "yes" and "no" with i select Yes i want the label2 to change the text to "yes" likewise with "no"

i have a combobox containing countries name and their codes like INDIA:CNT001 then i have a textbox that store the code of country i.e CNT001(fetching from database) Now i want to match that code with the combobox code so that the combobox is set to that item when i click a button. i m using vb.net and sql server as database.
View 5 Repliesmy 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 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...
for example :
table 1:

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.
