Im using this code to try and load in to a combobox from a table called tbltest and i keep coming across this error
[Code]....
how to do this, but I'm ignorant so I forgot, how to load lined text from a .txt file into a combobox?
View 6 RepliesI am trying to write a vb2008 program that allows a user to select an airport from a combobox and then once the value has been selected it searches a comma separated text file once it has found the airport selected ( always the first column in the file) in the file it populates 8 other textboxes with the row data from the file. The idea is to select the airport and then it calls up the radio frequencies associated with the airport.I assume you have to call the data into an array and the search thorough the array until the combobox.selectedvalue = the value in the array, but i am unsure how to do this Ideally I would like to be able to the user to add data to the file thats why I used a combox, but I am having trouble trying to get the boxes to populate so first things first.
[code]...
I have been working on a solution that uses Combo Boxes to fill DGV I have 3 RDM tables, 3 Combo boxes and 1 DGV Probably best way to explain tables is this way
Table 1 OwnerID 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ( There are 5 owners)
Table 2 CDID 1=(1,2) 2=(3,4) 3=(5,6) 4=(7,8) 5=(9,10) (each Owner has 2 records)
Table 3 CDTrackID 1,1=(1-10) 1,2=(11-14) 2,3=(15-20) 2,4=(21-27) 3,5=(28-36) 3,6=(37-40) 4,7=(41-44) 4,8=(45-47) 5,9=(48-55) 5,10=(56-60)
where 1,1=(1-10) means
Owner 1 record 1 has 10 records and
Where 1,2=(11-14) means
Owner 1 record 2 has 4 records
etc etc
On Form Load Combobox 1 loads all the data from table 1 with no output in DGV (Works well) (5 records Perfect)
When I select a record from Combobox 1 it loads relation data from table 2 into Combobox 2 and also displays same in DGV (Works well) eg if I select record 3 in combobox 1 it loads records 5 and 6 into combobox 2 and DGV (2 Records. Perfect)Now comes the Problem When I select a record from Combobox 2 it is supposed to load the relation data from table 3 into ComboBox 3 and display same in DGV eg Combobox 2 has records 5 and 6. If I select record 5 It should load 3,5(28 - 36) OR If I select record 6 It should load 3,6(37 - 40) instead If I select Record 5 then Record 1,1(1-10) loads into combobox 3 and DGV If I select Record 6 then Record 1,2(11-14) loads into combobox 3 and DGV Regardless of which record I select from Combobox 2 (1,2); (3,4); (5,6): (7,8); (9,10) it always loads the same records into combox 3 and DGV Sample code for combobox 1
SQL = "Select * From CD Where OwnerID-1 = '" & cbxOwner.SelectedIndex & "'"
Sample Code for Combobox 2
SQL = "Select TrackName From CDTracks Where CDID-1 = '" & cbxCD.SelectedIndex & "'"
[code]....
The only thing I can think of is that my query constantly sees 2 records and numbers them as 1 and 2 thereby displaying records 1,1(1-10) OR 1,2(11-14)?
So basically I have two comboboxes. Combobox1 has these items in it:
Education and Health Services
Financial Activities
Professional and Business Services

I have a picture box on my form along with a combo box with a number of different options. So anyway when a combo box item is selected I want it to look in the dataset for the selected item's row and pick out the image to load and then using an IF statement it sets the image (or should).
Dim RaceImg As String = DS.Tables("tblRaces").Rows(ID).Item("RaceImg")
If RaceImg = "AusGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/AusGP.png")
ElseIf RaceImg = "MalGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/MalGP.png")
End If
I have tried a number of different ways to get this working, I have tried them in the resources for the program and also tried the following code
GP_Picture.Image = "./Track Images/AusGP.png"
It seems like the picture box isn't redrawing or something? Just to add it will load the first image which is the AusGP because thats the first option in the combo box, after that none of the others will load.
I have a few combo boxes that need to be loaded up once and displayed multiple times (whenever the main form is opened) The reason for this is because it's taking about 10 seconds for the form to load each time it's opened due to unnecessary re-querying. Here is an example of what I have as a combobox source and what I've done. I've put the query, connection, etc... in a module and call it on the login form - I don't get any errors but the data does not load into the combos.
'In Module
sql = "SELECT DIR_ID, DIR_NM FROM LTC_FBS_DIR ORDER BY DIR_NM ASC"
RConStr = String.Format(RConStrFormat, LoginForm.txtUser.Text, LoginForm.txtPass.Text)
'using instead of dim connemp
Dim connemp4 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(RConStr)

i have been hunting the web for a solution or example to my problem which is loading and xml file into DataGridView with combobox for the cells and then loading the comboxes with data that the user can choose from to change the cell value to and output an updated xml file. Below is my code with the column creation commented out for now, with this code the 7 columns are added with comboboxes to the datagrid but when I read in the xml file its adds the data to another 7 columns on the end and not into the columns I have created first.

I'm loading 3 comboboxes and a treeview with values, from a remote database when the app starts. As we all know the app freezes until it's done loading. I want to speed things up.
Dim _thread As Thread
_thread = New Thread(AddressOf test_loading)
_thread.Start()
[code]....
When I execute this code I get the following error:
mycomboboc.Items.Add(reader.Item("columnname").ToString)Cross-thread operation not valid: Control '' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
I'm loading a folder (path), which contains folders and files, in a treeview according the combobox-text.
When I load the app. the combobox is filled with the paths. I'm using the SelectedIndexChanged to load the treeview. Everything works.
The issue is that it also starts to load the paths the treeview also gets loaded (slow), but it should only load when I select an item in the combobox.
I tried comboboxselectedtextchanged etc, but without any luck. Besides that loading the files and folders is slow.
Is it possible to load the content of a text file (.txt) into a listbox or combobox if the text file is located in a webpage?let's suppose that the file is located at url...how would i load the content of the text file into my listbox/combobox?
View 15 RepliesI have completed my project and i have one remaining thing to settle... I want to make the combobox not to be able to write yourself. for example there are 4 options ,"A","b", "c","d".If i type w in the combo all the project is ruined!i want not to be able to type at all to prevent this...Which property should i change?

What I did was I took the dataset fill from the Form_load and put it in the Tabpage2_GotFocus procedure thus:

I'm trying to get my program to launch another .exe within the project folders. At the moment I am using:Dim oasicer As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("oasicer.exe", "hammer_8_8.txt")but the program starts and stops straight away. the files were originally in a folder called OASIC in the debug folder, so I had "OASIC" before them, but that didn't work either.

View 8 RepliesI'm making a log for my application.I have made the log and it works.I use the streamreader and the streamwriter to save and load the data. I thought that it would be more organized to have columns inside the log.The problem is how will i save the information to the text file and load it up again so that it could organize itself again. The code that i used to make the columns.
log.Columns.Add("Task performed ", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.3), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add("Time and date", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.2), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add(" Amount of detected files(s)", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.2), HorizontalAlignment.Left)
log.Columns.Add(" App version", CInt((log.Width - 4) * 0.4), HorizontalAlignment.Left)

I am creating a sports bet program and have set up a database in sql server 2008 R2 with results for games including wagers, odds etc. I now want to display this data in a range of listboxes, textboxes and labels in my VB.Net program.I am quite happy to play around and learn myself however I would love it if someone could get me started by completing one of the simpler labels. This label has to display the entry in Team One in labelTeamOne.
show me how to do this? I have already imported the dataset using the database wizard so all I need is the code.

I am trying to load an Excel 97 single tabbed spreadsheet into a SQL server table using the OleDbDataAdapter function. From all the documentation I have found, the first parameter should be "select * from [sheet1$]". This works fine for me only if the tab in the worksheet is named Sheet1. If I change what's in the [] brackets to the actual tab name, it also works fine.

View 7 RepliesI am loading an access database in vb.net using
me.adaptername.fill(me.datasetname.tablename)
The thing is that this takes a lot of time and the program doesn't move on to the next line until it finishes loading all the data. Some of these tables I need only later but I don't want to make stall work while doing it. Is there a way to load a database without waiting for it in the code. and a way to check if it finished loading in code. this way i'll be able to load it in the backgroud after the program has started and if the user wants to use options which require tables which weren't loaded yet i'll be able to know and avoid errors.
Alright, for a school project i'm making a filecrypter, and i need to load the executable directly into the memory.
For those that don't know it yet, a crypter consists of a crypter, and a seperate "stub"
the crypter crypts the file, and the stub is binded to the file, and upon execution, the stub is executed, and in turn executes the file it's bound to.

I have a base form which has toolstrip. I am loading few icons to the toolstrip through the code as given below
mnuFind.Image = Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath & "ImagesSearch.ico")
mnuSave.Image = Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath & "ImagesSave.ico")
This code is in the form load event of the base form.
At the design time the images are displayed in the form.
The problem is in the inherited form. The inherited form is not loaded in the designer window. It gives the following error.
The service System.Windows.Forms.Design.IEventHandlerService already exists in the service container. Parameter name: serviceType
Some times it says it cannot find the image in the installation path of Visual studio.
If I remove the icons loading in the base form it works fine.
I have a Customer File, and want to serach through the customer file to find a customer. I want to be able to Load the data into an array, and then from that array into the list view. BUT i don't want all of the feilds. I only want 3 (out of a total of 7), CUST ID, FNAME, Lname, etc. When the user clicks on the searched Customer, it then displays that customer in the form.
What I am not sure about doing is loading the file into an array
Edit: The file is a .dat file. I will happily attached my form if someone requires it
EDIT2: Can't count to 7
