VS 2008 Using A Listbox As A Dropdown Datasource?

Jun 14, 2009

I gather MATTER NUMBER and PATENT NUMBERS in a listbox on a dialog form - that I pass to the main form after the dialog closes.I then ask for CASES on subsequent dialog forms and want to have drop downs for MATTER NUMBER and PATENT NUMBERS that "have the suggestions" of what was entered in those list boxes earlier.So - I've been using DATASOURCE for binding to datatables and thought to myself - heh - I can probably set the DATASOURCE of the DROPDOWNS - and it works!

Public AddMatterNumber As ListBox
Public AddPatentApp As ListBox
MatterNumber.DataS

I have the following code, but it errors:
If cbOverrideArea.Checked Then
Me.ddArea.Items.Clear()

Shared Dropdown Datasource Updating?

Aug 15, 2011

I have a goal to have dropdowns populate using a string array as the datasource. Re-binding works well in the dropdown event, but if I make a change to a currently selected line item it won't change until I make the box dropdown again. Is there a way to keep this updated without re-binding the data?

Also, this is one of several dropdowns on an MDI child form. I'd like to make sure they're all synced. For instance if one has "Bob" selected and I change Bob's name to "Chris" I need all the "Bob" dropdowns to change to "Chris". Is there a way to do that without having to cycle through all the windows and call a rebind function?

Finally, I want to know if there's a better way to do it than the way I'm doing it. Since all these children have to be synced, the MDI parent holds the String array as a public property and the children each leech off of it.

VS 2008 Hiding Dropdown Button On Combobox

Jul 2, 2009

I have a data grid on my form with 6 columns. 5 of the 6 are combobox fields. When just looking at the datagrid all the drop down buttons on the left really clutter up the grid. Does anyone know a way to hide the drop down button on the combo box until the time the user actually clicks in the cell. I have tried changing the style to flat which helps but I would rather it wasn't visible at all until the user is actually in the cell.
