I have 2 listboxes on my form.Listbox 1 - populated with "available" field namesListbox 2 - populated with "selected" field names.There cannot be the same field name in both listboxes - it's either one of the other.The logic I was going to apply was to populate Listbox 1 with every field name ... and then as I populated Listbox with the field names which the user has already selected, remove the corresponding item from Listbox 1.
View 8 RepliesI'm creating an editable ListBox control, where the user can double-click an item to edit it. When double-clicked, I simply overlay a TextBox over the item, so the user can change the text and then commit it by pressing Enter or leaving the TextBox. The 'commit' is simply this:[code]where 'editingIndex' is the index of the item being edited, and 'textBox' is the TextBox object.If the ListBox contains strings, this works just fine. The item being edited is replaced by the textbox Text string.However, if the ListBox contains some other object (let's say a custom class), this is a problem! It still "works", in that it still sets the text of the item, but the item is no longer an instance of that custom class! It is now a String, and all other information about the item is lost. So, I really want to let the user be able to change the text representation of ANY object, without replacing the object with a string. Obviously, I cannot know how the object displays its text (well, by the ToString function of course, but I cannot know what the ToString function returns).Now, I am having a few ideas how to approach this, but none really work the way I want. I am pretty sure that I'm going to have to provide some kind of event that the user has to handle. I'm thinking something like this:
- When the item edit is committed, an event is raised
- This event contains the Item being edited (as an object, the user has to cast it himself), and the new text of the item.-
- The user handles this event, and assigns the new text to the correct property.
For the Person class, this could look something like this.My ListBox should raise this event, and assign the new item like this.[code]I think this should work (although I haven't tested it), but there's one problem with this approach:When the items are just strings, the user still needs to implement this event handler, while he shouldn't have to (I can simply assign the new text string to the item). So, if the user is simply using strings, he still needs to do this for every instance of my listbox:[code]So what I'm really looking for is a way so that I can implement the default behavior (for String items), and still allow the user to override this behavior if he is not using strings.I may be overlookihe obvious solution here, but I can't figure it out... Overriding is done when you inherit a class, but the user isn't going to inherit my custom listbox (well he CAN, but he shouldn't have to). He is just going to handle the event. And if he doesn't handle the event, my listbox uses the default implementation.
Basically, the user can type in a name and a job description into two different txt boxes and then click add. It then adds the name to the listbox and stores it in a string list (Public strList As New List(Of String)) it also stores the job description in a string list as well (Public strListDescription As New List(Of String))Then when you select an item in the list box it knows what data to bring up in the txt boxes using an array with these lists:
Code:
Private Sub lstMyCourt_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles lstMyCourt.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim i As Integer

Is it possible to select an item in one listbox and then display the data of another listbox with the same indexed position? I am planning a project and this is something I would like to attempt but I haven't figured out how to do it.[code..]
I tried doing the above code but instead of displaying the listbox text the message box just returned false.
I have made an employee list and linked it to an Access database. The initial problem I was having is that in my program I had to link their ID's and names so if you click on an employee in the listbox, his or her's ID would automatically display in the textbox below. Since I did not know how to do so, I decided to make an array and store the ID and names separately while the listbox is being compiled. And so, the form became linked and adding became easy to code.But my problem came in deleting an employee. When deleting the name should be removed from the list, but this is where the order of the arrays messed me up. How do you maintain the order of the array? Here is the code I used. I dimmed 'count' as an integer and it is responsible for keeping that order.[code]You will see Staff_CodeTextBoxes etc. and info_Staff_CodeTextBoxes. etc.These text boxes (not visible to the user) are responsible for holding the data while the array takes the data from it, or adds it's own data to it.

I want them to be centered and right justified so when the are selected they are in the center of the highlighted box, not at the top of it. Does anyone know how to do this?

Okay, so the title was horrible. I know that. Here's what I'm trying to do:I have a lot of data that's coming from a database and being adding to a listbox. The data that's coming from the database is a unique ID, and a name. Is there any way I can make the item contain both the ID and name? I know I can append it, that's not what I'm looking to do. I need a way to be able to either get the ID, or get the name, while displaying them both.I have gotten as far as creating a class:
Class Item

Property Name as String

View 13 RepliesI've been trying to add to a listbox item from a different thread (thread 2) than the thread in which the form/listbox was created (thread 1).
When I check ListBoxItem.InvokeRequired from within thread 2 it is always false when ApartmentState.STA is set. When set to MTA I get an error. Thread 2 is a unique thread with different ID from thread 1.
What is frustrating is that at one point it was working fine, and then I changed some of the structure of the project and it has now stopped working (and I don't know which change caused this! It was a while ago).

i have a list box which is populated with the sub folders from a user selected folder, so the listbox item count varies from 2 item to 1000 items etc.The list box code i use to do this is:
Dim lb1s As String = Form1.Folder.SelectedPath
Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(lb1s)
Dim mydirInfoArray As IO.DirectoryInfo() = di.GetDirectories
Im trying to make a feature were on a button click the app will create 1 folder for every item on the listbox (named after the list box item)So if theres 3 items on the list box for example:
001
002
band 3
[code]....
And when the user presses the button, the app will create 3 dupe folders (Only the folders, not the contents) in a user selected directory using the same names, ive been tinkering for a little while but cant seem to figure out a way to implement this.
this is going to be hard to explain but ill try. Question 1. Ok i have a list box with a few items, What i want for this example is to click a button and it will start on the first item and do: MsgBox ("this is item blah blah blah") then after that it will go to the next item and do the same and then the next and so on untill all have been done. The "blah blah" should be the item so if item was to say "hello" then the msgbox would say "this item is hello" I know this would be a lot of msgboxes to close, like if 50 items then thats 50 msgboxes to close, this is just for the example.
Question 2. Ok this is where ive tryed to learn but find it really hard (multithreading) Im wanting all to be multithreaded so all work at the same time, ive tryed a few times but the only way i see it is having a **** load of subs, like if i want it to use 10 threads then ill have to add the same code 10 times or somet, im not sure.
i have attempted all this and failed big time as my way was to get the first item and use that then remove it from the listbox BUT... with it being quite fast the 2nd 1 and 3rd 1 used the same item befor it was removed and to be honest i dont really want them removed. so my attempts took like 2-3 days that was a waste of time really. I Know this is a lot to ask but im in real need of it and these 2 things have driven me half mad.
