I am trying to use a grid to display datasets. The database that I am using is not on my local machine. I have to dial in and log in to the database. We are using an image database. I was shown by my boss that he uses MSFlexGrid, but it appears that is no longer available on the newer versions of Visual Studio (he is using VB6). I was wondering if there was a way to display these grids without going through the Data Sources?
View 4 RepliesI'm curious what we all are using to display grids of data.I keep falling back to LISTVIEW's in DETAIL mode - they visually look nice to me. But I'm always writing code to load them from datatables and such - lots of work.DATAGRIDVIEW's - not so nice looking. Of course we can edit them easily - and they bind really easily

View 8 RepliesI have a MS Access database set up, with a Period field that has either values 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. I retrieve these values using a database connection and I would like to reference a particular control based on what period was grabbed from the database.
Here's example code, pseudo of course.
TextBox(dr(3)).Text = dr(0)
dr(3) contains the period, and dr(0) contains the content I would like to put into the text box. I have these text boxes on my form: TextBox1, TextBox2, TextBox3, TextBox4 and TextBox5.
So if dr(3) contained 2 then I would want to reference TextBox2.
I have a question, I have a combo box, which when changed fills the data grid. Now Wen I change the Tab and come back to same tab again(one containing the combo box)..the value of combo box remains there, however the grid gets empty. I need this data to be maintained till the user selects another value from drop down.
View 1 RepliesTry something along these lines:
TextBox1.Text=(dt1.rows(DataGrid1.CurrentRowIndex).item(0).tostring)
where dt1 is the datatable you're using as the data source and you want the data from the first column of the grid to be shown in the text box.

I have two grids inside a TabItem and in the code-behind I want to be able to add controls to both grids and have all the controls visible at run-time. Currently at run-time the controls added to "Grid3" are not visible while he controls added to "Grid4" are visible.The overlapping grids have the same rows but a different set of columns.I'm trying to do this with two grids so that I can vary the number of controls I can add per row in the code-behind by adding the controls to one of the two grids.Here's the XML:
<Grid Name="TabControlGrid" Margin="20,171,0,70">
<TabControl >
<TabItem Header="Tab1" >[code].....
The controls in the XML are just place holders for the controls I am adding to the grids in the code-behind.
I'm writing small VB.Net app which should build reports based on data gathered from some external MDB-files (Access 2007).
It was planned that this app will use parametrized SQL queries to collect data from DBs.
One of the parameters for these queries is path to the external MDB-file.
Here goes sample code:
Dim conn As New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:TempTemp.mdb;")
conn.Open()
[Code]....
Looks simple but doesn't works. After launch my app throws following exception - System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Disk or network error.
Have spent a whole day to make it work with no success. What have I done wrong?

How are crossword puzzle grids made? I have written a program to generate a puzzle, my problem is the GUI part.I ended up using Visual Basic (VB) because I'm more familiar with that language.However, eventually I have to write this in Java. So far the only way I am displaying the results in a grid-like format is using two controls Groupbox with a Label inside it.This way I can put the number to the word's clue in the title line of the Groupbox, and the individual letter in the Label. To make the cell in the grid editable (my goal for a different version of the puzzle), I guess a Textbox would have to replace the Label.The GUI for real online (professional) crossword puzzle grids is much nicer than this.I know there is a way to combine controls to make a customized one. Even if this works in VB, I'm not certain if it can be done in Java, therefore, I really don't want to go that route (unless someone knows how make customized controls in Java). I have searched the net and looked in books on games, VB and Java with no luck.I need something that I can grow dynamically depending on the grid size needed to hold the content.

View 1 RepliesI have a bit of a weird issue. We use DevExpress controls to do all our Windows Form development. Anyway, I found a perfect use for the DataRow.SetParentRow/GetParentRow methods in my grid. So I created a DataRelation, added it to the DataSet and bound it as the data source for my grid. The issue is I now find this:On my grid. It seems to be the DataRelation (when I mouse over it the tooltip is the DataRelation name).
View 1 RepliesI have looked at the answers in the forum and some seem dated. I an an old vb2 person and need to move up. I understand sql very well and use complex queries. First test project and trying to add multiple tables to a data grid (Only Form in project).I used the Data wizard to add the Access data base and worked by way through to near the end. The query works in the wizard and returns the correct rows. The error message is "The solution returned by the new query differs from the base query."
During the creation process I selected all the tables. Reading some of the old anwsers I get the inpression that VB 2010 does not handle multiple tables in a datagrid (forum items go back to version 2008).
I am using Visual Basic.Net 2003 with an Access 2000 database.
An integral part of the program that i'm working on is a DataGrid which I am filling from three different queries, based on the user's input. The Grid properties are coded with specific requirements for each of the queries. I have two simple (hopefully) problems.
1) There is no scroll bar on the grid and I can't find a property or event that will allow me to add the Vertical Scroll Bar. How do I do that.
2) The grids contain only four columns each. I want the user to be able to click on a cell and populate four string variables.
I've been working on a program and the final step in it is to run an external exe. This particular exe is a video game exe. What happens is the code will run fine, the game starts up, and right when the screen blinks to go into the game, the game stops stops. I don't even get to the logos in the beginning.
This game in particular is Star Wars Battlefront II, and I'm trying to run the main game file (BattlefrontII.exe). I've tried TONS of ways to try and get this work.
