VS 2005 Defaulting Item In ComboBox
Jan 18, 2011
I have been working on something for a week or so, trying to get it to work, but regardless of what I do, it is not doing anything. I have two forms, one called frmWorkLogEntryStart and the other called frmWorkLogEntry.

I have been creating a call management application and I am having a problem with something that I have spent weeks on trying to get working and nothing I try is working for me. My application is an MDI application written in VB.NET 2005 Professional, using .NET Framework 2.0. It uses a back end database using Microsoft SQL Server 2005.When the MDI application launches, a form is displayed to the end user asking for phone number (MaskedTextBox) and a partner name. The partner names are within a ComboBox.
When the end user types in the phone number and selects a value from within the ComboBox, s/he clicks on the start button. This then opens a second form. The phone number from the MaskedTextBox is to default in a second MaskedTextBox (this I am able to get working without issue.) The partner name selected from the ComboBox is to default on the second ComboBox. This is the part where I have been working on it for weeks and not able to get it to function.
The second form has many ComboBoxes, all of which pull down items from a particular table within the database. Some of them are editable and some are not. The ones that are editable are also auto complete Suggest/Append on the ListItems.I wrote a sub to handle the population of these ComboBoxes and also to handle if they are editable or not. All of this is working. However, my main issue is that I can't get the value on the second form to default to what ever was selected on the first form. I do not get any errors but regardless of what I do, the second form always stays as the first item in the list regardless.
The code I am using is as follows:
<CLSCompliant(True)> Public Sub PopulateDropDownListFromDB(ByVal cboName As Elegant.Ui.ComboBox, _
ByVal TableName As String, ByVal ColumnName As String, _
ByVal UseAutoComplete As Boolean, _
ByVal UseSQLDistinct As Boolean)

Case: I have one ComboBox which i fill up by using DisplayMember, DataSource with DataTable.
[Code]....
When user key-in in ComboBox (not select from the list), I check with above all possible but still got nothing. According to my knowledge, .Contains(cboStudent.Text) should work. Right?
I out of idea to check this checking.

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've tried to code it in a logical way as possible but it just doesn't works except for the "wtf" so i think that overall my code is correct but the way i want to retrieve the selected item from combo box is wrong.

my 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.

I'm currently stuck on an issue regarding declaring an array of type short in a structure and having it default to 'nothing' rather than '0' after ReDim.'Declaring array and setting it's initial size
Private Structure Totals_T
Dim sTot_Desc As String
<VBFixedArray(10)> Dim iTot_Cnt() As Short
Public Sub Initialize()
ReDim iTot_Cnt(10)
End Sub
[Code]...
When calling m_Totals(0) the arrays returned have 10 records in the arry with sTot_Desc and iTot_Cnt having values of nothing in all records. When I ReDim m_Totals both the variables I declared in the structure(sTot_Desc and iTot_Cnt) are declared as nothing, it's fine for the String but I need the Short I declared to be declared as '0', which is what I thought happens when you ReDim. Can anyone see what's going on here and why it's declaring my variables as 'nothing' rather than defaulting to '0' for the short and ""/nothing for the string?

I'm using a NumericUpDown control with a Minimum set to 10 (using for font size setting). When it is changed, it is bound to an Application setting and saved. On Form Load, I am attempting to set the value of the NumericUpDown control to the value stored in that setting (14 for example). No matter what though, it doesn't use the setting's value, it uses the value of the "Minimum" property of the NumericUpDown control.

I am in the process of creating a system using VB in Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. The system which I am creating is connected to an Access database via a tableadapter.Currently, I am coding a form for a table called Employee and this form allows the user to create a new employee, edit or delete an existing employee. Editing and deleting an existing employee works fine but adding a new employee is causing me trouble. When I specify an employeeID (this is the primary key), the declared value is stored appropriately in memory and it also displays in the form, however once I save the new employee to the database, the employeeID always defaults to 0 for some unknown reason. So, the record which I've just entered has a primary key of 0 regardless of what the the primary key should be.
The employeeID is declared as an integer and the value is obtained by getting the employeeID of the last record in the table and adding 1 onto it. I've also tried hard coding the employeeID and a specific number, but this does not make any diffence. I've reused the code from another part of the system which works fine before, but why it suddenly doesn't work is baffling me. The employeeID field in Access is a long integer.

Is there a way to default the Copy Local property of references that I add to my projects? I figure there has to be some sort of method since adding a reference to a VB componentdefaults to False. (for example, start a project as a class library and then adda reference to System.Windows.Forms, it will default Copy Local False.) Is that somethingin the DLL's settings or configuration that I could replicate in my DLLs to force that

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.

frmMain.cboType.Items.Add(Reader("TypeName").ToString)

In vb6, to add a combobox item, you simply say:
Combo1.AddItem
All easy enough. But how do you do that in VB .NET?

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]

vs2005 -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.

I currently have this code to load a combobox. I also have a class to set the itemdata and text for each item. my problem is that when the form loads I have another query that selects a classid for a student. I want to compare the itemdata for each item in the combobox against the current classid for that pupil and then set the selectedindex of the combo where that classid is. How can I do it.
