I have been developing a database management program which is quite simple so far, with navigational controls, ability to delete record, datagrid, etc.
It uses databound textboxes, but when I modify the content of them it does not update the database. Same applies when I add a new record and fill in the textboxes. What do I need to do?
(I used to use VB6.) I have been developing a database management program which is quite simple so far, with navigational controls, ability to delete record, datagrid, etc.

I am sharing databinding when opening a detail form a summary form. The data is shared fine. What I don't know is how to save any data that may have changed, or to create a new record.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI want all binded controls in a form or a user control have the Data Source Update Mode to OnPropertyChanged (by default they are in OnValidation).I can do that for each control in designer mode and in the DataBindings, under Advanced, change the Data Source Update Mode to OnPropertyChanged but I want to do that once for all controls.
All my controls are in a big user control, so I put before InitializeComponent() :

I wanna know a thing.I wanna know how to move into the different regs of the form (using databindings), just focusing the ID textbox and selecting ALT + => to go to right, ALT + <= to go to left, ALT + UPbutton to go to next and ALT + DOWNbutton to go behind.
View 2 RepliesI am porting a college project made in VB6 to VB.NET, which I am quite new to. I'm finding data bindings a little more frustrating than the ADO controls VB6 had. Here is an example of RecordCount being used in the old code, from the login screen:

I have a form that has several controls, most of them are textboxs. All controls are binded to a bindingsource. The controls that always have values, they are displayed correctly, but the others ones that have null values in the data source, the default null value doesn't show up. This problem it's driving me crazy... There must be something that i'm missing. Some of the code that i had used with no luck:

can i use an inverse notation in the databindings to enabled or disabled one checkbox?I have a form that has several controls binded, and if i have true in one field in the database i need to check checkbox and disabled it.Something like:
vb.net
chk.DataBindings.Add("checked", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
chk.DataBindings.Add("enabled", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
This can be done directly?
I used to use ADODC with VB6. Once I've set up databindings I can set a text box or other controls to link with a database's specific field by changing the Text property under Data > DataBindings. I want to change the field the text box links to at different times using code. How can I do this?

I'm having some problems with a data bound datagridview.My current scenario is the following..The itemSetup has tree properties {ItemNo, CompNo, LocNo}(compno locno are not required)I have a datagridview with a datasource list of itemSetup And this has two comboxes cboCompany that is bound to a list of company the selected value is bound to compno. cboLocation that is bound to a list of locations the selected value is bound to locno the location class requires the compno to create the list of location the problem I run in o is that the when the compno is Nothing the cboCompany throw a datagridview_ dataerror when the form is loaded en when a item is added it looks like the binding of the combox runs later then the value is set.
View 4 RepliesI'm having trouble using DataBindings in a Windows Form / User Control. For example: Create a windows form, place a single text-box on it & place two buttons on it. The code behind the form is:
Imports System.ComponentModel
Public Class Form1
Implements System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged
Public Event PropertyChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.PropertyChangedEventArgs) Implements System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged
[Code] .....
If you type something into the text box & press Button1, you'll get a message box with the text of the property in it. If, however, you press Button2 (which sets the property in code) and then press Button1 again, you'll see that while the property was indeed set in the code, the text box doesn't reflect the change.
Updated the code to provide the implementation of INotifyPropertyChanged. This now works as desired.
I have a form with many different textboxes on it. The form is used to Edit the data already in a databound table. At design time I set my Databindings.text to the appropriate columns.
During form load I check the values in the bound column for null values. If the column value is null, I set the textbox.text property to a descriptive prompt like "enter telephone #" or enter city. I also use databinding.remove to remove the databinding so that the desriptive prompts don't wind up in the database.
Here is the code I use to remove the databinding.
For Each Panels In Me.Controls
PBox = TryCast(Panels, Panel)

.Tag2Defaultphase is a custom property I have defined which holds the default descriptive prompt. If the user enter a value into the textbox I then wish to add the bind back so that when I updateall with the tableadapter the value will be transferred back to the appropriate bound column.
Here is my code for that:
Sub perOptionalTBoxValidation(ByRef TBControl As custTextBoxControl, ByRef strDefaultTextPhrase As String, ByRef intMaxChars As Int32, ByRef bsBindingSource As BindingSource, ByRef strColumnName As String)

View 2 RepliesI am trying to add to a binding using Control.DataBindings.Add(). The issue that I am having is that the data member name has a period and space in it("Foo. Bar"). When I try to add the binding I pass in the string "Foo.

I tried adding "[]" around the name but no dice.

I have some textboxes bound to a bindingsource and bindingnavigator.
I want to detect when the values have changed and prompt the users to confrim if they want to update.
When the form is first initalised and when then binding navigator moves to the next record the text_changed event fires on textbox where I have a boolean to determine if things have changed.
Is there a way to set my boolean only when valid data changes have occured or a better way to detect if things have changed

I have researched the net, youtube, and the msdn DB, and still can not find the working answer I am looking for. I would like someone to show me how you would save the contents of "Listbox1" to a .txt file using the "Save As" Option.

My question is simple (the answer may not be...), What I am looking for is a way to save a file as an encrypted file (so know one can open it except in visual basic or a way to save it with a unique ending that only visual basic will recognize. I will also need to know of a way to open or load the file to.
This is going to be used in a game I am working on (and yes...I know visual basic isn't really meant for games, but it is coming together pretty well). I was originally going to have it save as a text file, but then everyone could open, read it and even change there stats. That is what this file will contain, the stats for their character, and when they load it, it will place the values into the correct spot.
I am a partial beginner or intermediate coder, I can understand code, I just don't know all there is, like saving and loading, and this is probably a little harder.
I am working on a form that save contents of a TextBox as a txt file, but I want to make my own file type, with the extension .rcp. How do I get my save Button to save as .rcp by default? [code]

In a word processor of mine, I made a save and open feature, but, I'd like to improve my save feature, so that, when the user tries to save, it doesn't make the user choose the location every single time. So I pretty much want my save to do the same thing as MS Word when you try to save.
