can i use an inverse notation in the databindings to enabled or disabled one checkbox?I have a form that has several controls binded, and if i have true in one field in the database i need to check checkbox and disabled it.Something like:
vb.net
chk.DataBindings.Add("checked", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
chk.DataBindings.Add("enabled", bs, "MyDBFieldBool")
This can be done directly?
I am making a configuration screen so that an administrator can easily determine what controls on a form are enabled according to a combo selection.
I have created a table (SQL2008 DB) to store the settings and need ideas how I can best implement.
The session form will start up normal with only a few controls enabled to start, but then when the user selects a "session type" from a drop down combo then the form will be configured for that type. Because there may be several different combinations, and I do want to offer the user the ability to add and configure more types as needed I feel like this may be the best method instead of hard coding.
Table Structure
SessionType varchar(25) not null PK
ControlSwitch varchar(50) Not Null
(Edit: I may add an additional DB field so that I can specify the default value of a control also)
Now what I thought I would do on the config form is have a series of combo boxes and the label represent each control with a value of True or False, then when saved it builds a string like example 1,1,0,1,0,1,1,1 or True, True, False etc.
The string would represent
ctrl1=on, ctrl2=on,ctrl3=off,ctrl4=on,ctrl5=off,ctrl6=on,ctrl7=on,ctrl8=on and so on.
Put a Datagridview on a form, fill it with data. dgv1.enabled = True and dgv1.enabled = False are almost the same look to the eye unlike other controls (textbox,combo, listview, etc ...) where there back color changed to light grey and you can distinguish if that control is enabled or disabled but not for Datagridview.

View 4 RepliesI'm trying to allow scrolling in a Multiline-TextBox even if the TextBox is set to
textbox.Enabled = False
This is not possible, as the Scrollbar is disabled with the Enabled-Command, too.The default solution here is to set
textbox.ReadOnly = True
textbox.Enabled = True
but this doesn't really do the trick for me. With ReadOnly I can still select the text of a TextBox as well as place the cursor inside of it. But as I have normal (non Multiline-TextBoxes) and other controls on the same form I don't want that to happen. I want to have exactly the same behavior as all the other disabled TextBoxes.
For everything else, like mimic the color of a disabled textbox and so on, there is a legitimate workaround with the ReadOnly-Property, but I coudn't find any for selecting text and placing the cursor.
UPDATE:I tried to use WIN32 API but it didn't work as expected:

does anyone know how to change the text color of a disabled checkbox control?I have drawn a black background on my form interface and a checkbox has been positioned on top of this background. When the checkbox has its enabled property set to false, the text cannot be seen at all ( so I assume the disabled text color is black ).Does anyone know how to change this color? I've tried changing the chkbox.forecolor property from within the program code but it didn't change the disabled text color :/

I have been developing a database management program which is quite simple so far, with navigational controls, ability to delete record, datagrid, etc.

View 13 RepliesThere is a bug in my code somewhere. It has a form with 5 input fields and 5 output fields. The algorithm is supposed to do a forward DFT and then immediately do a reverse DFT on the same data - so the output values should be the same. However it returns garbage! as I cannot see where the bug is.

If I could use the DrawRectangle method to cast an Inverse colored rectangle on a graphic, it would be easy, but seaching through all the brush/ image attribute/texturebrush members, I cannot find the "inverse" option.The direct manipulation of a bitmap using bitmap.setpixel(x,y,color(255 Not getRed,255 Not getGreen, 255 Not getBlue)) is probably what I will use if nobody can show me a more "SPECKY" way.[code]

So the scenario in my head is like this.
So we have for arguments sake FrmConfig which is the master configuration form, then we have FrmMain which is the root menu our application general user interfaces with. So here based on what options are checked as enabled in FrmConfig effects what controls (like buttons/menu options) are enabled in FrmMain.
