I am kind of an old 'newbee' at this, so bear with me for a moment. I am developing a windows forms application in Visual Studio 2010 Professional that connects to a remote database (MS sqlServer 2008 R2).To speed up development, I configured a DataSource and used the data objects associated with it. In VB6,
the data source could be assigned to the data objects during runtime using a variety of different runtime database connections, ODBC, ADO, ...
I have been unable to find a similar method with the VS2010 Visual Basic DataSource and underlying TableAdapter, BindingSource, BindingNavigator, down to the individual ComboBox and assorted other bound controls. It's convenient to have the integration, but I've got different users with different permissions, The long and short is that I'd like to be able to assign the data source during runtime operation, at least to the connection string level.
My current problem is this:I have a form and I have in it three textboxes, 1 button and 1 datagridview; I also have an acceI'm learnig now on how to create a report without a database. But In how to set the datagriview as the datasource for my report
View 8 RepliesI want to maintain a list of potential ComboBox values over multiple executions of my program, and to use that list as the DataSource on multiple ComboBoxes. I also want changes made to the DataSource to propagate over all of the ComboBoxes already existing in the application.
Can someone recommend what type of object I should use as my DataSource, as My.Settings objects don't seem to support generic list objects.
Also, along with that recommendation, can I also ask for suggestions as to how to propagate the updates of the collection to all ComboBoxes? I would imagine I need a collection type which raises events when its contents change, but I can't think of any, and in any case do not know which are compatible with My.Settings.
I have a small requirement and that is as follows:
I am populating a ListBox using stored procedures and the ListBox is populated as follows:
lstItems.DisplayMember = "emp_name"
lstItems.ValueMember = "login_id"
lstItems.DataSource = accessFunction.getEmployees
The ListBox gets populated correctly. After it is populated, i have a CommandButton and on the click event of the button, i want to remove selected items from the ListBox. So in the click event of the CommandButton, i have written the following code:
lstItems.Items.Remove(lstItems.SelectedItem)
After selecting an item from the ListBox and when i click the CommandButton, i get an error as "Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set".
how i can delete items from the ListBox.
I have a datasource attached to an Access DB. I have a problem if I remove a datatable from my datasource(which contains lots of datatables). I have to manually remove the reference to that datatable from the designer file for each form that uses the dataset.

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
I have added a textbox and a combobox into the form. There are 2 buttons as Add and Remove. Everything works fine here but the problem is after addig/removing (using add/remove button) new items into the combobox, when I close it, the new items added/removed are gone. I need to save the new items added to the combobox during close. I can understand I have to create a Application Setting which will save the new items added to combobox upon closing. But I don't know which code I need to use? Below are the currently used code of this project.

I have been successful in using the datasource binding in VB 2008 (drag and drop from datasource to form)My question is that I have date and time fields in an access database. In the database they are fine. I have the date as a long date and the time field as medium time.When these dates are viewed in my vb form, they show as:example (for date of 5/15 and time of 9:00)
Date field: 5/15/2009 12:00:00 AM
Time field: 12/30/1899 9:00:00 AM
I tried to format these field in VB to long date and medium time but it doesn't change. Any suggestions on how to do this?

I have a vb.net project. I have used the GUI and wizard to create a DataSource pointing to a SQL Server Stored Procedure. It works great! However, a new column has been added to the stored procedure.In the GUI if I right click the data source name and refresh, nothing happens.If I right click the stored procedure name and refresh, nothing happens.If I preview data I can see the new column returned.If I choose edit with wizard there is a red exclamation point next to the name of the stored procedure and red X be each column name.
When I hover over the field name it says "Column ABC in the DataSet references a column missing from the Database".When I hover over the stored procedure it says "STORED_PROCEDURE is mapped to STORED_PROCEDURE in the DataSet.

View 9 RepliesI have created an application which uses an sql server connection as its datasource. The problem I'm having is that the application needs to work on computer that has no network connection. How Can i change the datasource so that on runtime it can work off a machine that is not connected to a network? The datasource from the sql connection only contains one table with no data. It only needs to be updated with a target folder that can be changed to any location on any computer already written in the code.
The connection string suddenly stands as: Dim MyConnectionString As String = "Data Source=MY-PC;Initial Catalog=ImageLocs;User Id=test;Password=test;Pooling=False"
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 two tables "Person" and "Alias" in a one to many relationship. I have a DGV for "Person" and want to use a combobox for the Aliases. I also have a textbox and a button for the user to type the alias name and click the button to add the alias name to the combobox and update the dataset. I keep getting the "Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set." Error. But if i use a DGV instead of a combobox for aliases, I have no errors and everything works fine. If I remove the datasource property for the combobox it will not get populated with the data already entered, so how, or can I, set it up where the combobox gets populated when the form loads and able to add items to the combobox????

My goal is that as soon as any character is pressed in the textbox, Listbox's item which starts from that character should be selected. I have done all the coding needed for the functionality but my problem is that when I add this usercontrol to my form, I should be able to change the DataSource, displaymember and valuemember properties at designtime. But I cannot see these properties when I add the control on the form.
