Impossible To Find TreeNode Text

Jul 2, 2009

So I have a TreeView that starts off empty. Sequence of events is as follows:
Add a new root node. Code makes the label edit box pop up immediately, and I give it a name.
Add a new subnode to that root node.
Add a new root node, after the first one. The label edit box pops up, and I give it a name.

The second root node takes on its new name, but so does the subnode added in step #2. Now, it's not really the subnode's text; if I examine that TreeNode in the debugger, it has the proper text for a subnode. But that text that was entered into the root node sticks around through expanding and collapsing its parent node, until something else happens and I need to rebuild the tree.

I'm building the tree in kind of an odd way - removing all root nodes from the parent, all child nodes from the root, updating all the tags and text, creating new nodes, then re-adding the nodes to their parents - but I've checked, and the proper text is being associated with the proper node. The TreeNode that is showing the wrong text has only ever modeled the one object, never had anything else in its Text property, and has its text set back to the right value ("untitled action") right before being re-added to its parent node.

All I can think of for a culprit is the code for the label editing box, which is based on an MSDN sample:
Private Sub EditSelectedCategoryName()
If Not ActionList.SelectedNode.IsEditing Then
ActionList.LabelEdit = True
ActionList.SelectedNode.BeginEdit()
[Code] .....

EditSelectedCategoryName is called by a context menu item's Click event, right after the new root node is added and made the selected node. The DisplayName setter in the AfterLabelEdit event handler is what triggers another chain of events that rebuilds the tree. So am I screwing up some internal structure of the TreeView by altering its contents in the AfterLabelEdit event?

VS 2010 No Duplicates In Combo From Datasource

Sep 7, 2011

I'm having an issue wherein my combobox is populated from a datasource (access database >> [URL] and unwanted duplicates are shown.

-Example- [URL]

How can I make it so no duplicates arise?

Also on another note...I'm having difficulties linking the 2nd combo (model) to the first (make).

I would like the program to function in such a manner that

>makeCombo is populated from the database
>the user selects the Make of the vehicle from makeCombo
>modelCombo is populated from the database according to the make selected
>the user selects the Model of the vehicle from modelCombo
>user hits search
>datagrid is populated with appropriate vehicles

Feb 21, 2012

How to use a databound combo box to display one field in the drop down, and another as the combo box text on roll up? Using VS 2005... For example, I have a datatable that has 2 fields.

VS 2008 Combo Box Text Alignment?

Sep 14, 2009

I might be coming up with a few dumb questions over the next few weeks because I am trying to push myself to learn VB 2008. So I think this is the first.I have figured out how to get a datareader to pull data from a MySQL database, pass it from a module back to my form, but when I try to put it in a combobox, the text is always left-aligned. I had never thought about this before because I think I have only ever put text in one before in VB6. However, this time it is numeric and left aligned numerics don't line up well when the numbers look like

1000
2500
20000

VS 2008 Insering Text Into A Combo Box?

Apr 13, 2010

I would like to ask you a question about combo boxes . I want to insert a string into a combo box , but it seems I have a problem . First of all , let me specify that this combo box is set to only accept specific strings , which populate it when the form is loaded . Assuming that the combo box is located on Form1 , when it is loaded , this code is executed :

[Code]...

What is going wrong ? Is it that the combo box can not have that value because Form1 has not been loaded yet ? If that's the case what should I do ? I guess I could call the Load sub directly from Form2 in order to load Form1 , but I wouldn't like that because with the Load event some other code will run , which I don't want it to . So , is there any way to set my desired string into the combo box ?

"Backup Files" In VB 2008 EE - Application Suddenly Became Impossible To Access

Feb 27, 2009

A routinely used application suddenly became impossible to access, with and error code indicating that the "VB Backup\Backup" file cannot be found. When I click File Open, the projects display as always. I select the application, double click the .sln file--and nothing happens. When I try to access the .vb file in Solution Explorer, it says "Cannot find VB Backup\Backup Files."

What are the Backup Files, when are they created, and why would they suddenly be "gone?" Is there any way to rebuild the Backup Files? I used the application last night and it worked fine. Today it can't be opened because the Backup Files cannot be found.

I have backups of the application folders, but get the same error message. Cannot be opened because the Backup FIles cannot be found.

VS 2008 Disable Text Boxes Until Combo Box Choice Is Made?

May 28, 2009

I currently have my cute little first program made... I'm just stepping into the water with this programming thing. I made a program where you can select a shape from a drop-down list and then input some values and click a button and get the area of the shape. I have it working so that when a certain shape is chosen, certain fields are disabled, such as when you pick "circle" from the combo box, the "length", "width", and "number of sides" text boxes are disabled but the "radius" text box is enabled, thus allowing you to enter the radius and find the area. I want to make it so that when you first load the program, all of the text boxes for the length, width, number of sides and radius are disabled until you select a shape from the list. Currently I'm using

[Code]...

This works for disabling the correct boxes when something is selected, but I don't know if I'm even on the right path with that first part.

File Modifiers Username Across Network Connection Impossible?

Apr 18, 2005

I'm running into this problem when it comes to determining a network logged on username and i hope someone can help me out or atleast point me in the right direction.Situation:1 Windows 2003 server that is serving files through Active directory. No Dfs installed, just plain files sharing.1 or multiple clients that access the files, make modifications and creates or deletes files. For arguments sake let's say that the clients are Windows XP computer and the users are logged on to the local domain (AD).Currently available:When the client alters, creates or deletes a file i have a (VB.Net Windows Service) script that tells me that this is being done and stores a record in a database for this action being performed.Desire:I wan't to know the client's ip-address, computername or logged on username so that i can store this to. I have tried about 20 different scripts but all check the username on the server side and not the client. So now i either get back "SYSTEM" or "NTAUTHORITYSYSTEM" instead of the user's AD name.Below is the code i use to monitor the directory and or file changes.The "writeDBLog" is where i want to pass the username to write to the database.

Looping In Text File

Jun 25, 2009

[Code] I want to replace the X and Y column to user enter value. For example If User enter X=100 Y=100. So the text File Should Do changes Like this:

In first line The X and Y should Be replace by 100. For the second line to the 10th line The X should X=X+2.54 and Y remain 100. For 11th line X=100 and Y=Y+2.54. From line 12 to 20 X=X+2.54 and Y remain which is 102.54. The pattern should be continue until end of file. For every 10 line the Y value should change. This Is the code to replace X and Y value: [Code]

code working perfectly for X values. But for Y values for the first 10 lines is no problem but after that the initial Y value is adding by 2.54 and that value should remain for 10 lines only but not for 20 lines.. Actually the number of lines is determined by the user. they need to enter the number of lines. User must decide to how many lines once the changes should take place.

And One more question is : If user enter Row= 2 the changes should occur for two set of lines only. If user enter Row =2 and column=10 So only 20 lines should changes other lines should remain the original value. I attach my text file after the replacement. But the replacement is still wrong.

Looping Through Text Boxes?

Feb 9, 2009

how I can loop through text boxes.I will be useing several text boxes. Some created at design time and some at run time.

WCF And Validation Application Block: Impossible To Customize Error Messages?

Looping And Counting Using Text File

So i am count after i find each string example when i find "ADT^A08" it counts how many found in the txt file and then it moves to the next file. My problem is that you can see totalA08 += 1 counts the amount. My problem is that it keeps its old value after each run so the first run counts 5000 and then the next count is 10000. When that last file was the same as the first only 5000. Any ideas on how to properly clear that value after its done [Code]
