View 2 Replieshow i can implement below requirement using asp.net and vb.net.I have three fields in a form which are filled by users. Based on these three values, i need to auto-populate the 4th field.I have planned to implement this in the following way.Write a separate class file with a function to calculate the possible values for the 4th fields based on 1st 3 inputs. This function can return some where between 1-10 values. So I've decided to use drop-down for 4th field, and allow users to select the appropriate value.Call the above function in onchange function of 3rd field and take and use the return values to populate the 4th field. I'm planning to get the return values in array field.(Does this need a post back?)

I'm trying to populate a date from a bound text field in a DetailsView. I keep getting a error when a DBNull is in the column. How do I avoid the DBNull when populating the text field.
My code is as follows:
<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="CBYD Clear Date">
<EditItemTemplate>
<asp:TextBox ID="CBYDExpDate" runat="server" ReadOnly="true" Text='<%# IIf(Eval("CBYDDate") is DBNull.Value,"", String.Format("{0:MM/dd/yyyy}", Eval("CBYDDate").AddDays(30)))%>' />
</EditItemTemplate> </asp:TemplateField>
I have text field that a user enters a date in. Based on what they enter a drop down box will appear or not appear. To obtain the info for the code to control the drop down I am using an auto post back on the text box. This is however making the app a bit clumsy as the user is taken back to the top of the page.

View 1 RepliesI want to display (DataGridView's) selected row contents (each cell value on appropriate text box) on text boxes on the form. This should be fairly simple task for experienced i am sure.So far i haven't been able to find a single working solution to accomplish that as most of the articles are written for VB / VB 2005/ VB 2008 and not VB 2010.
Here is what i have already tried. (I tried putting an image but i can't due to my privileges over flow) TextBox1.Text =DoctorsDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value.ToString It strangely works for first 4 selected rows and populate text boxes but fails for the rest of the DataGridView.

View 4 RepliesI am able to load a dataset with records from a sql database. I then loop through the data using a for loop, this works fine. As part of the loop I would like to update the contents of a textBox.text property. The problem is that it will only update the text field when the loop is complete. How can I update the text content for each record in the loop? I hope this makes since.
View 5 Replieswhat I need to do is automatically (through a timer or similar method) look up a newly added record, and if it exists, have a number returned and populated to a specific textbox. I have the looking up the record and getting the field I want returned working fine, but I just cannot find any way to have it populate a textbox. Another small wrench in the works is that it's a web form. I think I'd be ok with a Windows form.The reason I need this is, the user will not be sure when this record has been added and it would work fine if they wanted to click a button until it is actually added to the table, retrieved and the number needed populates the textbox. However, the folks who gave me the spec prefer the user not to have to keep clicking a button for an undetermined amount of time. So, I've been trying to use a timer. I've tried everything I could think of to get it to populate the textbox. Even javascript didn't seem to work and neither did trying to a redirect back to itself. Everything is fine except for filling in the texbox.
View 8 RepliesI'm trying to create my own custom "inputbox" (can't think of VB.Net term for the VB6 input box).
Anyways, I'd like to have a label & a textbox on my form along with 2 buttons. I want to let the label to grow based on the text that is in it. I know it has an autosize feature to it, and guess I can use that, how do I limit the width so that once it hits that limit it goes to a new line so that if I have a message or a question to pose to the user, it doesn't get too wide. Kind of like MessageBox.Show.
It'll be Label at the top, textbox under that, and the two buttons under that. I'd like the textbox to move up/down based on the size of the label, and the buttons to do the same along with the window not becoming too wide.

I have a small page, with a button on it. When I click the button I'd like the code to look at a a field (call the field "InvoiceNumber") in a table (call it "InvoiceTable"), take the last number stored, increment it by "1" then store it back in the "InvoiceTable" and display the new invoice number on the page.Currently the button is called "New Invoice", so clicking this button is going to create a new invoice, with a number one newer than the latest one in the table.
