VS 2008 - How To Get Unique Values From Specified Column Of DataTable

Jun 16, 2009

I'm trying to make a method that can get unique values from a specified column of a DataTable. The problem is that the column may be string, integer, etc. I'm not sure what type of variable the (Of T) is.

Private Sub GetColumnUnique(ByVal dbTable As DataTable, ByVal ColumnNumber As Integer, ByVal ColumnType As ???)
Dim results As List(ColumnType) = (From item In dbTable.AsEnumerable Select item.Field(ColumnType)(ColumnNumber)).Distinct.ToList
End Sub

Way To Allow Only Unique Values In A Column Of An Infragistics UltraWinGrid?

Mar 21, 2012

I'm using an Infragistics UltraWinGrid with a column of drop-down boxes. I don't want the user to be able to select the same value for multiple rows in that column. Is there a simple (or heck, I'd settle for advanced) way to do this? I'm using VB.NET

-EDIT-

I tried setting a filter on the data source for the drop-down box. But when I did that, the values in the other boxes in that column started disappearing (not the values themselves, but the descriptions that they were supposed to represent, so instead of reading "Information", it just said "1"). All of the cells in a column refer to the same combo box, so if you filter out a value from the data source for one of them, you filter it out for all of them. I'm currently trying to catch a CellChange event and check against all other currently-used values. If it was already used, I would put up a message saying as much and revert back to the old value. However, the value comes back as the previously-saved one, so... not helpful. About to see if I can use the "text" property.

VS 2008 SQL - With A Unique Column?

Mar 31, 2009

Alright, I have this Access Database. It has 6 Columns: ID | Class Name | Class Code | Class Room | Grade | Teacher

My ID is the Unique Column that I need to reference back too when Updating my other Fields so I get the correct field.How do I do this? Properly.I've been thinking of a method but I doubt it would work.First I would start off selecting all the ID's and then LOOP through all of them, and then rewrite them to to + 1 Each time I make a Delete, so Each Time it will be a consistent 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 .... etc... Then I can reference from that to my Combo Box Selected Index + 1 to get the Correct Row which corresponds with the Selected Item.Will this work? Or will I still need a Unique Fields that I reference back too.

Column's Value Is Likely To Be Unique 90% Of Time

Jul 15, 2010

For each loop through a DataSet, I need to store the values of 2 columns (we'll call them ColumnA and ColumnB) so that I can use them to search the same DataSet again later.The DataSet stores the results of a search and places the value of ColumnA into a ListBox as a new item.When the user clicks on this ListBox item, the application will loop through the DataSet again using the value of ColumnA and the value of ColumnB as criteria to identify the correct row in the DataSet to return.This would be a lot simpler if the value for ColumnA was unique every time, but a value will inevitably be repeated on occasion. That's where ColumnB comes in. This column's value is likely to be unique 90% of the time, and, given the nature of the information in the DataSet, if either column duplicates, the other won't.So I've thought of adding the values for ColumnA and ColumnB into a 2 dimensional dynamic array, but I'm doing something wrong apparently.[code]

Know If The Table Column Is Unique?

Mar 15, 2012

currently, what i want to do is, add a column in a table "default" during runtime. Well, I've got that covered already.

The problem is, the column names are actually taken from the users input through a textbox or drop down list and of course, if the same column is added already in the table, it generates an error since it has to be unique.

That is why i wonder if it is possible to know if a column already exists without viewing the form which contains the grid view of that table?

Setting A Textbox To Only Accept Numeric Values?

Dec 9, 2010

I am looking into data validation as I need a way of setting a textbox to only accept numeric values. I have had a search for this and it doesn't seem as straight forward as I had hoped.

I have found a couple of possible methods, although the sites which I found them where very unclear on how they actually work. I feel strongly that I should know how all of my own programs work >_>

I have no actually got this to work with my program yet. Are there better methods than this?

Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
Dim allowedChars As String = "0123456789$,"

Validating For Unique Values?

Mar 27, 2010

I am using a DataGridView that has a filtered dataset and I like to validate a column in a new or changed row via a sub in the partial dataset class so that I can set the errorprovider to an error if the entered value isn't unique.I started out to set the field in SQL server with a unique key and then catch the sqlerror on the form. But data validation is best practice to do in the partial dataset class so I am trying to do it for this particular problem aswell. But after spending a lot of time I am stuck and wonder if it is even possible to do this particular validation in the partial class?

Masked TextBox Appearance - Accept Numerical Values Between 0 And 999?

Aug 10, 2011

Problem: I wanted data input text boxes that only accept numerical values between 0 and 999. I could check for this during a later 'save' routine, but instead preferred to warn the user at the input stage; so I chose masked textboxes - setting the mask to "000". However these boxes appear and behave differently. They have a row of 3 underscores - which I don't want - and also seem more difficult to hit with the cursor. How can I get Masked TextBoxes to appear and behave exactly as normal ones?
