View 6 RepliesVB 2008 - Change Child Form Combo Box From MdiParent Form
Feb 23, 2010In VB 2008, I have a Parent form with a combo box on it. There is a child form also with a combo box on it. I want to be able to change the values on the child form based on what the user selected from the main form. The user launches the child form from a toolbar on the Parent form. The following code is run:
[Code]...
What I want to do is if the Parent's combo box has "Red", "Blue", "Green" values and the user selects "Green", the child form's combo box(With the same values) will also change to "Green". (I do not need to change the Parent form if the child form changes.) I've tried changing the Child's combobox from the combobox's change event on the Parent form, and the code runs, but nothing changes on the child form.
VS 2008 Populating Cbobox On Form Load For A Child Form?
May 14, 2009i am having an issue populating two combo boxes on form load. The program will connect to an access database and pull data as instructed. Then as it pulls each record it puts it into the combo box.
This was working.. atleast i think it was. i dont recall it ever not working, however i wasn't looking for it.
My problem is that if when i load the MDI parent form and have it skip the selection form and the login form and load the next form in the sequence, it loads everything perfectly. However if the select form is loaded first, then the login form and then the form i need loaded, it will not populate. The only difference between the two different loads is that the login form calls a function that loads the form as a new project.form
I did this so that I can have multiple forms open at a time. I am assuming my problem is that I need to get the child forms handle then populating controls using that handle? but i think if I had to do that then I would beable to populate the comboboxes on the first form load using the login method of opening the form.
Here's my code.
vb.net
Private Sub frmLine1t5_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Me.Text = "Line " & LineNumber & " Test Form"

View 6 RepliesVS 2008 MDI Child And A Dialog Form?
Jan 19, 2010I'm having trouble with MDI child and a dialog form. The problem details are listed below:
1. One MDI Parent form (Form1) with a button on it (Button1).
2. One Child form of Form1 (name = Form2) with a button (Button2) and a textbox (text_box1).
3. Another form in the project (not child of Form1 and not MDI Parent) with name Form3. This form has also a button on it (Button3).
The application behaviour is as follows: the application starts with Form1. Clicking the Button1 will show Form2. Form2 correctly opened as a MDI child. Clicking the Button2 on the Form2 will show Form3 as dialog (Form3.ShowDialog() ). Clicking the Button3 on the Form3 need to do the magical thing - to set/change the text in the Form2's text_box1.
Tried various examples from this forum. Also followed a lot of examples from net. Nothing works. Tried to create a writable property in the Form2 class but calling it from the Form3 does nothing.
I tried to access the MDIchildren(ss) while ss loops in MDIchildrens array but I don't know how to access the label control inside the Form2 using this technique. Successfully changed the Form2 caption but no controls are available in VB intellisense - practically correct because VB don't know which form from array I'm referring to.

VS 2008 - MDI Child - Controls Move Up The Form At Runtime
Jul 29, 2009I have an MDI application which uses fixed sized forms. I've started to change the forms to sizeable and anchored the controls so they move when the form is resized. If the child form has a menu this jumps onto the parent menu (as it always has done) but all the controls move up the form at runtime and leave a space at the bottom of the child. If I change the form in design mode to cut through the bottom controls i.e. so the form doesn't appear tall enough, it corrects itself at runtime. Is there another workaround as it looks misleading in the designer.

VS 2008 Stopping A MDI Child Form Loading In A Maximized State
Sep 28, 2010I have an MDI Form that contains an MDI Child form. On this child form is a flexgrid. When the user double clicks on a row in the flexgrid this loads another MDI Child form. I have set the following properties on the second child form:

Feb 25, 2009I'm creating an application that uses an MDI container to create a sort of desktop style for my form with a group of icons docked to the left hand side. The rest of the form is the desktop area that I want all windows to open in.If I use the standard File-New option that is provided by VB as a default for the MDI container this works fine and a child window is loaded.If I use similar code from one of the icons this also works fine.y problem is that one of my child forms is a search panel and when I double click on one of the results I want a window to open, but as an MDI child. However, this doesnt happen. When I open the window it opens as a completely separate window and isn't docked within the MDI parent. It also appears on the task bar as a separate application.
