If I create a list for a TextBox:
[Code]....
I am able to only add controls that are of type TextBox. My question to you is, can I create a List to hold more than one control type or do I have to create a list for each control type?
Is it possible to create a user control with a list of custom class type property? If it is, how can I? The issue is that, in designer mode the property is not displayed in property window. I can add the list on markup but when i switch to the designer mode it gives an error which is 'The user control does not have a public property named BookList'.
When you use List(Of ) you can add different data types to that list, and a while back I remember JM told me to make a new type to list or something and I was wondering how to do that. I want to be able to make a list that has a large amount of text and each item is named so I can gain easy access to that item.
I want to create some type of list or collection. Each item on this list or collection will need contain A string name and a integer value. Something like
I'm developing a program with a team in Visual Basic 2010.
What i wanna do is to create a textbox (inherits from textbox) with additional one property called MDIStatusInformation which is used to display a tooltip text in a status bar at main MDI form.
When i use this tag <Browsable(True)> _, the control property not list anything there.
I'm building an control interface for a system that consists of 1-4 modules. In my interface, each module has its own control set, grouped in a groupbox. I only want to show the control groups for the modules that are actually connected and hide the rest.
This is easy to do with the visble property.
I also want all of the groups to be stacked vertically in the UI such that when one is hidden, the rest below it shift up into its place as if you deleted a row in a table. It needs to be able to come back just as easily.

When I debug this winforms application I get curType = "notifier.notifierMain+Contacts+row" I want to the Validate function to know it is in MyContacts. How do I do this?
Ok i'm trying to declare a global list of type T (or is it <anonymous type>) i declare it in a module with something like Friend query As New List(of {whatever type i try}) the app takes some xml and parses it into a list but i need this list available to other classes and methods within the app, everything i have tried fails resulting in an error like Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of <anonymous type>)' cannot be converted to 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of {whatever type i try})'.
What would be the correct way to declare a list of this type? is there another way i could do this?
I've created a custom user control that has several properties. One specifies which database I want the control to access. I want to be able to present the user of the control a drop down from which he can select which database the control will interact with. How do I get the dropdown to work? I can get default values, but have yet to figure out how to get the selectable list.
II am trying to create a toggle button that switches a list to a range and then back to a list if needed. I am able to get it to do both but when I add an item to the list, convert to a range and then convert back to a list it leaves off the last items I entered.I tried to work in a code to select all cells but I must not be putting it in the right place.This is what I have so far:
i am trying to create a list of list in that i would like to work on multiple accounts at the same time. lets say i have 5 accounts. every account has a seperate name. each account has a few fields. so i though of having a list of bookkeeping (with 5 accounts) and a list of accounts (with expense, income, tax, status, etc as fields). [code] and if the idea of using list of list works how do i loop through both lists.
I would like to create list of child objects from list of parent object. Like If i have list of bookingroom which has one member room then i would like to create list of room from it.
eg. code:
Dim BookingRoomList As List(Of BookingRoom) = New List(Of BookingRoom) Dim RoomList As List(Of Room) = New List(Of Room) BookingRoomList = BookingRooms.FillGrid()
[Code]....
Is there any short cut method instead of iterating over for earch?
This is probably a really basic question - but I have a list of items (custom objects) being passed from one winform (.net 3.5) to another. I want to create a local list to store changes that only get persisted if the user clicks save. Currently if the user clicks cancel - the changes are still applied in the first form because I assume the objects are reference type.I have the save working as it calls a service layer to do the save and then refreshes the other form - but not the cancel.
when I add a Control to the List(Of Control) what gets added to the List? Is it the Control or reference to the Control.I have a collection of controls (picture boxes representing notes,comments, icons, etc.), which can be drag and drop into other picture boxes holding read only images. Those controls are never permamently added to those images, they can be move or dispose as needed. I need to save those controls to a file and retrieve it later, however when retrieved, they must be place onto the same location in the image. Saving just the image is not the option, I also need to save all the control attributes.
How can I get a new distinct list from an existing list using LINQ? This is what I have so far and it is not distinct but does give me a new list.
Dim tmpQryColumn = (From a In _allAudits Select New CheckBoxListItem With {.Id = a.AuditColumn, .Name = a.AuditColumn} ).Distinct() _columnList = New List(Of CheckBoxListItem)(tmpQryColumn)
I have a List (Of Type) which contains many instances of a class with three properties, IPAddress, AlertDate and AlertTime.There can be many duplicates of IPAddress in this list :-
[code]...
I need to be able to pull out just the latest (by date and time) entry in the list for each unique IPAddress. Is there any simple way of doing this?
Dim x = GetType(List(Of )) 'valid statement Dim list As New List(Of String)
Now I want to see if list is a List(Of T) variable: Dim isList = TypeOf list Is List(Of ) On the last line I get a compile error: "Type Expected". Is there any cheap-performance TypeOf operator alternative for generics?
I have converted c# .cs to vb:= I have 6 errors on:

I'm trying to create a new server control type in ASP.NET. This control would put a RequiredFieldValidator into a certain place. My class inherits from the WebControl class and it has a ControlID property which is the ID of a given control. The RequiredFieldValidator will be generated near the control with the given ControlID. However, the value of ControlID is nothing. In what events can I successfully use this property?
Public Class MyControl Inherits WebControl '... Protected Property ControlID As String Protected Property IsLinkedBrother As Boolean = False [Code] .....
But ControlID is Nothing for some reason and the event throws an exception. ControlID is never changed after initialization and it is initialized this way: <MyControl runat="server" ID="IDValue" ControlID="ControlIDValue" EnableCliendScript="true" CssClass="Whatever" Display="Dynamic" />
