My form closes whenever I insert an object that has a data bound in it. The object I'm trying to insert is a textbox from the data source window (drag n drop). I've checked on the database and that the table has records in it.
View 1 RepliesI have an RDLC report that I am rendering directly to the Response Stream as PDF (rather than using the ReportViewer). In the code that renders the report, it's DataSource is bound to a List(Of ClassA) objects defined in a custom assembly. This seems to work for the most part. My problem is that I can't seem to handle the situation where a nested object is null. For example, given ClassA and ClassB (the nested object) defined as follows:
Public Class ClassA
Public Id As Integer
Public Name As String
[Code]....
the report displays "#Error" if TheNestedObject is null. If TheNestedObject is not null, it correctly displays the Name.
I've got a piece of code in a project (MyProject) that contains early bound object from a referenced assembly (We'll call it CommonAssembly):
Dim myObject As CommonAssembly.MyEarlyBoundType
now I have another assembly that is dynamically loaded because it is not present in all projects:
Dim myLateBoundObject As Object = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap("Utils", "Utils.MyLateBoundType")
MyLateBoundType derives from CommonAssembly.MyEarlyBoundType, and I want to cast myObject to myLateBoundObject and then programmatically invoke the additional

In the code behind I have a function that returns a List(Of SomeClass):
rptRepeater.DataSource = SomeFunction(SomeVariable)
rptRepeater.DataBind()
In the html I have a basic repeater layout and am using the below code to get the Properties of each object returned.
<%#Databinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Parameter1")%>
My question is, would there ever be a case that it would execute the Function more than once?
Appropriate Title would be: Bind comboBox Tag to database.I have a comboBox on form which is bounded but and I need to populate it manually. With some reading on net i have found a way but it is not working
I can populate my combo, select item in combo, update database but the problem is when I load my form it displays empty combo (combo is fulled with my custom data but nothing is selected it must select correct ItemText) and after selecting a value in combo, the value disappears as soon as combo losses focus .

I created a Data Source with VB.NET and Visual Studio 2005. I dragged the data source onto my dialog, and VS created the text boxes with the members of my linked Object, a System.Windows.Forms.BindingSource and a System.Windows.Forms.BindingNavigator.
I populate the List (called myList), set myList as the DataSource in the BindingSource, and things work peachy except for the fact that I want this to be read-only. If the user changes something in one of the text boxes, it saves the changes.I tried creating a read-only collection to bind to the BindingSource, but that didn't solve the problem:
[Code]...
I guess I could disable all of the text boxes, but that seems a bit heavy-handed, plus I'd probably want to change the font color so that it's easier to read. Ideally, I probably wouldn't care if users were able to set focus to the text boxes, or even edit the contents, but I just wouldn't want any changes to persist. That is, if someone edited something, used the navigator to go to the next record, and then returned, I'd want it as it was before the user played with it.
I have a piece of code connecting to my database retrieving data. I was just testing the form on another computer and everytime it loads this specific form it closes the form.You can see the lines I had to comment out in order for the form to NOT close on load. Is there something possibly that needs to be installed on this other computer? running XP pro 32 bit.

I have a DataGridView to which I've set a list of objects to the DataSource. (I'm in VS 2005 using VB.) I created the DataGridView by creating a Data Source of type AssetIdentifier and dragging that Data Source onto my form. I want to update the DataGridView when the selection in either a combo box or another DataGridView changes. (Below I'm considering a click in another DataGridView.)
The following works:
Public Class dlgShowAssets
' class member variable
Private assetIdList As List(Of AssetIdentifier)
' pertinent subs and functions
Private Sub RefreshAssetIdentifierDataGridView()
[Code] .....
In this case, I always knew that assetIdList would have at least one element. I'd update the list, and reset the data source of the DataGridView to that list, and all was well. When I applied this to another situation, for which I couldn't guarantee that the list would have at least one element, things would work fine as long as I had at least one element in the list, but if the list became empty, the DataGridView threw System.IndexOutOfRangeException a number of times.
The rows in the DataGridView would not go away if I went from a non-zero number of elements to zero. I tried a workaround, which was to remove all of the elements, add one "dummy" element, and then re-bind the list to the control and it still didn't work. Also, following all of those exceptions, I'd get other similar exceptions when I hovered over the cells in the DataGridView. Some of the members of AssetIdentifier were "Nothing" but I fixed that in the constructor, and the exceptions still occur.
I have a gridview that is bound to a datasource (Windows Forms, VB.NET). One of columns is a property of type boolean, and I want to show "yes/no" in the column instead of 0/1 or "true/false". Is this possible? Can you edit displays of columns that are bound?
View 1 RepliesWithin my Visual Studio 2008 VB.Net project I am opening multiple forms after setting the form (that is opening) to be an mdichild of the main form. This works in really well in most of my forms except one. I am doing the exact same thing for all of them.
Basically I declare the new form:
Using frm As New frmName() With {.variableName = currentVariable}
frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent
frm.openForm()
End Using
Within the openForm subroutine in the form code I have:
Public Sub openForm()
InitializeDataSources()
... ...
Me.Show()
End Sub
I know this works because if I remove frm.MdiParent = Me.MdiParent in the main form and change Me.Show() to Me.ShowDialog() in the child form then it works perfectly. Right now (for only one form) it shows the form for only a second (looks like a flicker when staring at the program) and then closes it.
A program I'm developing launches dialog boxes to get information from the user. Right now, the user can still click on and manipulate the main form while the dialog box is open. How can I make the main form inaccessible until the user closes the dialog box?
View 2 RepliesI wrote an ASPX file in VB.NET. Originally this file ran successfully but after adding one additional parameter it now fails on "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on line "peType.DataSource = arrPEType" below.This error does not make sense to me though because I have similar parameter, 'dType', which it does not error on.

During Loading a form, I bind a datasource property of the DGV to the bindingsource, and then set the fillweight property of the DGV columns. But, after form being shown, earlier set properties are being reseted to default = 100.
The procedure is like:
1. TestForm.Show()
2. TestForm_Load(...) Hnadles MyBase.Load
DGV.DataSource = bindingsource
DGV.columns(0).fillweight = 80
DGV.columns(1).fillweight = 120
3. Me.close() (Closing the form which called TestForm.Show()
And now I have visible a TestForm with well binded datasouce seeing all the columns, but their fillweith property was beeing reseted...
i am trying to make a app that loads a keyboardhook from a module on startup, but the problem i am having is unless i load the keyhook from the form, the app just closes immediately.
what im trying to accomplish in the end is the module will will check a 'user settings' file, depending on the settings it will show a form or load the keyhook. but this is where my problem is, if i set the keyboardhook to load from the sub main in the module the app will just close immediately unless (as far as i can tell) i am always typing something
if i set it to load from the form it stays open, ive tried creating a second module and loading the keyhook from their but it still closes i uploaded a copy of the keyhook module if anyone want to test it / check out the code... all it does right now is pop up a msgbox on every keystoke, for testing purposes,
Dim frm As Form
For Each frm In Forms
Set frm = Nothing

The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.
I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.
Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?
Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?
I have a datagridview bound to a datatable setting its datasource property to the datatable. I would like to have a child form that contains a list of columns associated with the datatable that contains a checkbox that will allow the user to hide and show the columns ( I do not know the best control to use here) (I assume this is the easy part as All i need to do is loop through each of the datatable's columns to get the column name)
now I would like save these visible columns on some event like form_closing so that the next time the user opens the form up it will remember the settings

View 7 RepliesI have been making a webbrowser for a while now, everything works well, except i am unable to make the 'open in a new window' button work right. So far i have managed to get a new instance of my form to open with the right url, but i am unable to keep that new form open when the orginal parent form closes.

e.Cancel = True

Public Goldhave As Integer
Public UserName2, Password As String

I have the following code so the user must confirm cancel action, however the form closes on both yes/no action.why the form does not remain active when the result = no?

i'm using exit sub when a certain condition does not meet. but the problem is that the form closes. it should not close the form, instead, it should only exit from a click event. I'm using VB2008Express Edition and MS Access at the back end.[code]
View 4 RepliesCan anyone tell me how to assign an excel spreadsheet as the datasource for an axspreadsheet object?
View 4 RepliesI have a problem here I hope someone can help me out. I have this application in which I show information about workplans. It has a Main Form which show the general information and the activites that are going to take place during the execution.
The application has the ability to "attach" documents to the activities. I have created another form (and MDI form) that I use to show the documents (pdfs) when a user clicks on one of the documents attached. The problem is that when I close the form that shows the documents, it ends the application and I don't know why. It should just close and leave me again with the Main Form. Can someone tell me why is this form terminating the app. Is it because is MDI or what?
Basically, I have developed one form which is generic and display different views. On that form I have used Close button. Alphabet E is short-cut for closing the form (i.e. mnemonic functionality).During execution of the form, when I press "E" on that form, my form closes automatically. As per my understanding mnemonic works with Alt control only. I am not sure if I am missing any properties that should be set so that this problem is resolved.
View 1 RepliesSo I've got a somewhat common problem from what I can tell from the search results..I developed a program, got a beta version performing well, noticed a few small bugs, fixed the (all code-related) bugs, and now the program will open and then close immediately. I believe I have determined that the problem is not code related as I have commented outall of the code and it still refuses to stay open until I tell it otherwise. From heaforementioned search results many people have found this to be due to a ensingtonproduct, however I do not own such a product nor do I have any Kensington softwa
