VS 2008 Display String In A Integer Column In A DataGridView?
Nov 8, 2009
I'm just wondering if it's possible to display a string in a integer column in a DataGridView? The reason I'm asking is that I have a column wich displays the place for each runner (it's a sports application). And if the runner is disqualified, it will display "DSQ" instead of the place.
Now, if I want to sort by clicking the column header, there's a problem if there are more than 10 runners. If there are like 12 runners, the sorting will be like this:
I am using a list<of T> as a data source for a datagridview and would like to handle the draw event of the datagridview to evaluate the string length of the column cell. If larger than a particular number then I would just do something like
cell.value = string.substring(0,(whatever number I need it to be)).
I need to get the AVG of a column in my database i am retrieving. (.csv) I tried using the datatable.compute method but it doesnt work because my data in column is numbers in string format.So i need to either run another query and have the data in integer format?or change the column to integer format? I don't know I am asking as I am brand new to VB and programming for that matter.
I have a datagrdview with a large number of columns, but I want to always display it showing the most right handside data columns, as if the horizontal scroll bar was set to the far right - how do I do this?VB2005 starter
Is there a way to change the display type in a DataGridView. For example the cell has a value of 1, I would like to change that value to display "Weekly" on the DataGridView.
I am making a combobox from my data source. Basically, This is a projects form and the user needs to select the the primary contact which is contrained by the customer id (GETbyCustomerID) set in another field. I have it working... mostly except the combobox only displays the contact ID which is completely useless to the user. I need to know how to display the First and Last name (both are seperate columns in the table).
im trying to add the values in column for of my datagridview and display it in a textbox, but the calculation does not kick in unless two rows are displayed. if one row is displayed in the datagridview, then my textbox remains blank.[code]......
At runtime, I am adding a DataGridView to a windows form. The final column is a DataGridViewImageColumn:
Dim InfoIconColumn As New DataGridViewImageColumn MyDataGridView.Columns.Insert(MyDataGridView.Columns.Count, InfoIconColumn)
Adding the following code will get my Information Icon (bitmap) to display in each of the column cells but NOT the column header:
Dim InfoIcon As New Bitmap("C:MyPathInfoIcon.bmp") InfoIconColumn.Image = InfoIcon
Also, it is worth noting that the image displays 'perfectly' in the cells i.e. it is sized correctly to fit the cell.
However, I cannot find a way to add the same image to the column header cell. After some googling I used the following code which placed the image in the header cell but left me with two problems:
The image did not 'auto-size' to the column headercell in the same way it did when added to the column cells. The image was slightly larger and blurred. By using the _CellPainting event slowed down performance i.e. when hovering over the DataGridView to highlight the selected row the highlighting lagged behind where my mouse was placed.
Here is the code:

Does anybody know of a way to solve my problem and get a nicely sized, sharp image into a DataGridViewImageColumn headercell at runtime?
i am doing a small project for my business and i got stuck with this 2 weeks ago and still no progress.I have an access db table "store" that has columns: (filldate,brand,model,plateno,mileage,litres) where i am storing these info each time a car in my company fills gas. For example (8/25/ 2011,Renault,Megane,5487844,3943,20).What i want to do now is to display in a datagrid the total consumption of gas (litres) with the kilometers driven (mileage) between 2 dates.
I am having trouble in allowing the user to select the row in the datagridview.
I managed to include the checkbox column in the datagridview but i do not know how to wrte the code such that when the user wants to update or edit the data in the checked row, he just have to check the affected rows checkbox, can be one or many, and then click on ok button, which will then lead him to the data updater form, allowing him to update the data.
Currently i have the below code which can populate the checkboxclumn only.
I have to implement a column (TransactionCompleted) which will only hold two states Yes/No. I am using SQL Express and wonder which would be the best DataType to go for that column, if I prefer to display the data in a DataGridView column as CheckBoxes later in my application?

I need to display an two-column editable grid not bound to a database. I took a look at ListView with Mode=Details, but it appears that only cells in the first column can be edited. I then took a look at DataGridView, and am having two issues:
1. When editing a cell, it adds a new row: [url] How can I prevent this?
2. I don't like the grey background and would like the grid to fill the whole space, right and below.
BTW, if you know of a good tutorial on using the DataGridView unbound, I'm interested. [Code]
I was thinking to add another column named "Symbol" and based on the "Status" column to format the cells of the "Symbol" column to display an image.
I edited the DGV, and add a new image column.
I created a directory in my solution called "references" where I put all the .bmp files
I don't know how to do this. My first thought was to put an expression in the DataTable Properties, but I didn't manage to make that work. Another way is to format the cells in the "Symbol" column, and again I don't know how to do that. I tried with "Select Case ... Case ... End Select" with no success.
LE: Should I Insert the .bmp files into SQL database (varbinary(MAX)) If yes, how?
i have a problem with a SELECT statement.I have a table <EisagogiStoixeion> with 6 columns, one of then is < AgonPeriodos>. I want to display data in a datagridview depending on the column <AgonPeriodos>. I use the Select statement like this :
SELECT * from EisagogiStoixeion where AgonPeriodos = '" & textbox1.text &"'.
Value not set for one or more required parameters. This is my problem on the fill command.
If i don't use the where statement everything is ok and i can see the data including the data from the AgonPeriodos column.
I fill a DataGridView with the result of a database query. I have a boolean field named Gender. I want to show "Masc"if it value is True or "Fem" if it's False.
I can't assign a string value to a bool type cell. How can I do this?
PS: I've seen a C# example, but I can't understand how to do this in VB.

I have a LINQ2Entity problem, I want to get the value, string, from a database, so I select FProducts.Serial_number, and to end the query, I do .ToDictionary. The problem is, it tells me that it doesn't have sufficient parameters, to convert ToDictionary. So I need something like select FProducts.Serial_number, Nothing). ToDictionary. Also FProducts.Serial_number, 0).ToDictionary doesn't work.
Sub GetStatistics(ByVal ProductNumbers As List(Of String), ByRef Passed As Integer, ByRef FailedProducts As List(Of String)) Passed = 0 FailedProducts = Nothing
I want to search for a string entered in a column of a datagridview in a text file.If this string exists in the file then allow the user to enter it otherwise dont allow the user to enter the string.Also,since I am reading data from the database into the datagridview, I have not added columns to the datagridview using edit columns option. How do I do this in vb.net.I tried doing something like this:
So I'm trying to create a program in Visual Basic for my uni coursework and I'm kinda stumped a tad here. I've created most of it, I just need to write the files to a txt file (in the same folder as the program [bin/debug]).
I'm creating a some kind of employee reference form. Fill in your details, figures out gross pay, net pay and all the taxes an employer has to deal with. When you press Save, the details should all write to a file and I should be able to select from multiple ID's in my combobox for the employee ID reference. If I try to save a file with the same ID number I should get thrown an error. every ID should be saved under the Employee ID box.
Here's my code for the save button:
Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click Dim s As employee = New employee

I am working on a program that has a combobox that gives you selections for email address endings, but when I try to enter it in as part of the final email address get an error. Here is my mail.To.Add(TextBox1.Text(ComboBox1.Text))
When I click debug, it give me this error. "Conversion from string "@txt.att.net" to type 'Integer' is not valid." "@txt.att.net" is the value of the combobox selection. In the end it should be something like: "anything@txt.att.net" (Textbox1.text = "Anything" & the current ComboBox1.text selection = "@txt.att.net")
I am using VBNET2008 to develop Window Application. I was requested by Business Analyst to create a MultiDimensional Array containing CustID(Integer) and CustomerName(string). I do not know how to declare the MultiDimensional Array VARIABLE as Integer and string.
I'm trying to set an Integer value from my.settings.The values comes frpm a listbox, and then inserted to settings (set to specialized.StringCollection)The problem is when i'm trying to get the values and apply them to my function.Error code: Conversion from string "65 & 71" to type 'Integer' is not valid.To me it looks right, but maybe i'm missing something.
Code: Dim test2 As Integer Dim test As System.Windows.Forms.Keysm trigglist As New StringBuilderor Each item As String In
