VS 2008 : Binding Single Object To DataGridView, Update From 2nd Thread?
Oct 15, 2010
With the DataGridView I'm used to just populate them with a list of some object, using the DataSource property. Now I want to just display properties from a single object, and I'm a bit confused on how to do it.. The object is updated through an API event, and I want to select some of the properties for displaying in the DataGridView, to look like this:.where "ValueX" is the name of the properties.Now, what would be my options for binding this to the DataGridView, such that property changes are automatically updated. Since an update also must invoke the control, does that mean I must reassign all bindings, or what logic is necessary in this case?
should I bind to an array, arrayList, stringList, dataTable etc? I guess I'm not sure which type of source will allow binding. Or if I should perhaps build the columns and cells of the grid and populate them "one-by-one" to the properties of the object?

In previous versions (VB.NET 2003) I would do
datagrid.datasource = dataset.tables(0)
datagrid.datamember = "Column1" 'Where this is the name of the column
This would show me just that column in the grid regardless of the number of columns in the dataset.
In VB.NET 2008 I do: datagridview1.datasource = dataset.tables(0)
I see all the columns.I then add:
datagridview1.datamember = "Column1" 'Where Column1 is the column name
I then have an empty grid.How does one get only a single column to show in the grid from a multi-column data source? I am using internal code to populate the datasets and tables.

I can't get my binding source to update from a DataGridView
This is how I'm loading the dataset into the dgv:
vb.net Dim sFileName = filelocation & "Checks.xls"
Dim connectionStringTemplate As String = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source={0};Extended Properties=""Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1"""
Dim connectionString As String = String.Format(connectionStringTemplate, sFileName)
Dim sqlSelect As String = "SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$];"
Dim workbook As DataSet = New DataSet()

I have created a form that contains a DataGridView with data from a SQL Database. After viewing, the user will want to update checkbox fields in a single column of the DataGridView This action needs to update the SQL Database. I have set the "ReadOnly" to false on all the columns of the form and placed an "Edit" button on the form which changes the ReadOnly Property to True on the Column where changes would be allowed. How do I then set the binding to update the Sql with the changes made by the user?

I have a manually created a dataset (dsPickingList) that I add data too as the user inputs data on a form. There is a datagridview on my form of which it's datasource is set to dsPickingList.What I would like to do is spot if a user deleteds a row from the datagridview and update the dataset (dsPickingList) as it is ultimatly this dataset that is stored to the db and printed, not the DataGridView.[code]This is why I need the action from the DataGridView to update the dataset

Say I have a code with 3 methods that do some pretty intensive work. Would executing these methods on 3 seperate threads be faster then executing them one after the other on a single core cpu? And what if it's a dual core or HT?

I am getting this exception: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'TextBoxOutput' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on. in a VB 2008 Windows Forms application that I havent specifically made multi-threaded. I have create a sub called Out() like this:
Private Sub Out(ByVal inString As String)
Me.TextBoxOutput.Text += (Me.TextBoxOutput.Text & inString & vbNewLine)
Me.TextBoxOutput.SelectionStart = Me.TextBoxOutput.Text.Length
Me.TextBoxOutput.ScrollToCaret()
End Sub
and I call it from various events to log messages I am getting from my pbx, which I use a third party open source dll to access. The interesting thing to me is that if I run the deployed application (ie, not in the VS IDE) I do not get any exceptions, it's only from within the IDE.if I add the line: Control.CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = False to the form's constructor, the exceptions stop, but a) this seems like a hacky way to get around the issue and b) the application seems to hang sometimes when I have it set this way.

I'm getting the following error:"Current thread must be set to single thread apartment sta mode before ole calls can be made"
I am using Speech.Recognition.SpeechRecognizer and using it to open various dialog boxes. It works fine for the first few but on the third one when it calls the InitializeComponent in the Dialog's New, it throws the above error.
Anybody have any clue what causes this or how to fix it? The SpeechRecognizer seems to run on its own thread, so that seems to be at the root of the problem. If I open thedialog with a button click I don't get an error.

I've read (or the only book that covers ado 3.5) is Murach ADO 3.5 and throughout the book, the author recommends using object binding so that's what I've been doing. However, I had a chance to look at all the codes for our applications at work, and only datatables are used.Was curious as to the difference/pros and cons between binding to an object, and binding to a table. I guess my real question is which one should I be using, datatable or object binding? Is there a definite answer or does it depends on the situation and what I want to do?

I am trying to update a row or a single cell in ms access through vb.net. But when i update the text box named NRIC, say for example i want to update "s4522147B" to "tr4521856C" and mean while leaving the other fields the same.
But the thing is when i make the changes in nric.text (textbox), the dataset actually updates the whole column in the table instead of the selected textbox.
Below is my code for the update part

How can i do a workaround for this? I two databases(.sdf). Database A has table A1 Database B has table A2 Table A1 is an exact duplicate of A2 minus 3 columns My dataset(.xsd) is based off of tableA2 in Database B. I can fill all my tableadapters in Database A and all info in table A1 using the dataset. My problem lies when I do TableAdapter.Update() for Table A1(Since the dataset has the 3 missing fields) it tries to update table A1 with info that isn't there and I get an error. How can I update table A1 and ignore the 3 missing columns using the single dataset? Or is TableAdapter.Update() designed to Update the Database with all columns found in the dataset ?

I have an object (ClassGPS) containing a DataTable that is exposed through the property "Satellites". My form has a bindingsource that, upon load, associates itself to a new ClassGPS object. The table has 5 columns, two of which ("PRN" and "dB") I want to chart using the new 4.0 chart tool. So the chart object's DataSource = ClassGPSBindingSource, and the DataMember = Satellites. That is all set in the designer.In ClassGPS.New(), the table is pre-loaded with 4 rows. This object is created before the form loads. When the form loads and the bindingsource is set to the created GPS object, the chart correctly updates and displays the four pre-loaded entries.On this form, I have a button that adds more entries. Tracing from the Click event, pushing the button does add the entries properly to the underlying table, and if I create a ListCHanged handler on the data source, the events are all correctly firing, but the Chart does not update to reflect the changes.
So to test, I added a Datagridview object. Just like the chart, I set its datasource to ClassGPSBindingSource, and the DataMember to Satellites. And here's where it gets weird. In the designer, the newly added DataGridView control has 4 columns in it labeled RowVersion, Row, IsNew, and IsEdit. I didn't create these columns, it does it itself. If I try to change the bindings on these columns to reflect the actual datatable names (PRN and dB) two things can happen:
1) If I hit Play (F5) to debug the program, the DataGridView looks and acts correctly inside the program and is correctly bound and updating fine as I add new data. In the designer underneath however, the changed columns have disappeared and are replaced with the original four it is creating for no apparent reason. When the debug session terminates, the columns - which just finished functioning fine in the debug session - are now gone.
2) If I hit Build, the designer destroys my columns immediately and recreates those it defaulted to.In either case, something very fishy is going on... in that the Chart, with the exact same binding settings as the datagridview, does not work but the datagridview works just fine (unless Build is hit prior to Run).Has anyone run across this? Can you reproduce it? I have bound a chart to a datatable before and it worked just fine, but it didn't have to update except when the form it was on was closed and later re-loaded.

Im doing my first project with WinForms, and Im trying to get the DataBinding working. Theres no database in my project, but I'd like to bind some of the TextBoxes to objects' properties. In the other section of this forum (here) I found this line of C# code which does it: textBox2.DataBindings.Add(new Binding("Text", this.myPerson, "LastName"));
my question is can data binding to object properties be set up during design time (without writing code)? If so, how? P.S. I know how I would set up this binding if in WPF, but I'm forced to use WinForms.

I use objectbinding to display client data in a datagridview. The datagridview also contains a counry-column allowing the user to choose the country of the client.Unfortunately, databinding of comboboxcolumn does not seem to work if an own business class is used. Using a simple collection instead works well.Copy the sample code into a new windows project and the programm runs fine. Then comment and uncomment the two lines with "XXX" and the code will fail. Why and does anybody know how to make the sample code work by using the business object class(variable named "newClientListVariable" in the sample)? [code]

I have a winforms app access a database with 6 tables. Out of 6, I am showing 3 tables on three different tabs on my Form. However, I want to do it using a single binding navigator that will use / change the respective binding source dynamically, depending on the tab that is activated by the user. I have separate binding source for each of the three tables.

I have an object that is defined as a global variable based on custom class. Within that class I have an event that gets fired a certain intervals. These events are fired on the same thread as where the object is declared. How do I create a global object, but have the events within that object fire on a separate thread?

i know that a single function could not be run until it has finished and is currently not running. what if i have 2 functions within a class, are both of them allowed to run simultaneously? or will running 1 of them prevent both of them from running until it is done?(assume that backgroundworkers and threads are running the functions of this class)
EDIT: plus what if a single function has multiple signatures, is it considered a single function or 2 different functions? could both of them be running at the same time or only 1 is allowed to run between the 2 at any one time?
