VS 2010 ComboBox Get Value?
Oct 2, 2010
When i try to get the selected item for combobox1 drop down, for the AM or PM part, my form wont even start, i think its because i didnt set an initial selected item for this?I have this below, so when i uncomment the part where i get the dropdown value, i cant even start my form, when i just hard code a value it works..
'Get All Current Selected Values
Dim o1_hour = NumericUpDown1.Value.ToString()
Dim o1_mintute = NumericUpDown2.Value.ToString()

I am having issues when trying to populate a combobox that is dependent on another combobox. Populating the first combobox works as expected but attempting to set the value member or display member properties of the first combo box cause its selected index changed event to fire. That event seems to fire before the first combobox is fully loaded. The issue is then raised when trying to populate the second combo box, since it is dependent on having a valid value member to complete the dynamic sql statement, and at that point in time, there is no value member.
I can�t imagine that this is difficult but searching hasn�t yielded me any results. Should I be using a different event? What is the right way to do this?
I have a simple workaround in place - not allowing the second combo box to attempt to populate unless the first combobox has an index greater than zero but this hack is no good since it clearly prevents the user from selecting the first element in the first combo box.
Private Sub SpecialsForm_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Dim sql As String
Dim dt As New DataTable

I have created my first ComboBox form but now I am stumped. I am using VB Express 2010. What Toolbox or Property buttons do I use to generate code for the following:
(1) Title.Text (to add text on my form)
(2) Title. Location (location on the form)
(3) Items.ADD (to add the options on the drop down)
(4) Dropdownstyle
Please give instruction like On ToolBox (left side) click XXXXXX , then click, then click.

I am using a form with a combobox which is populated from an SQL database table. This works OK but is it possible to leave the box blank on the form until a value is selected.By default the box has the content of the first record.

I need people to be able to Add items to the ComboBox and then it will save it after adding so when it is reloaded it is still there! I just want it to save to the settings or something. No db or anything.

I have my project connected to an Access database, and I was able to sync the data to vb just fine. But on one form, I want to be able to sort through records (there are 15) via the ComboBox. Right now when I select another description from the drop down list, the corresponding data doesn't show on the form with it (the rest of the previous record is stuck there). The Binding Navigator works though. Here is how my form looks:

Kinda new to working with wpf apps (and vb.net). Looking for a way to filter a datagrid using a combobox (to select the field that the user wishes to search) textbox (to input search terms for specific records). The datagrid loads fine as does the combo containing the fields, however my filter simply does not work.
Code for loading data (works fine)
Dim obj = Me._dataManager.Collections.ReturnCollectionByID(tableSelectionCombo.SelectedItem.TableID)
Me.DataGrid.ItemsSource = obj
obj.Load(New DataManagementDataRequest(Nothing, Nothing))
Code for filtering (not working)
If Me.searchTxt.Text IsNot Nothing Then
obj.filter = selectFieldCombo.SelectedItem.ToString Like searchTxt.Text.ToString
Else
obj.filter = ""
End If

I'm trying to display some data in my combobox, the strange thing is that the combobox displays all data that has 4 four columns (I only want to display 3 columns out the four) but its not displaying rows that only have three columns?
For example
Text File
Column1, Column2, Column3, Column4
I only want to display columns 1, 3 and 4 so I use the following coding
For Each Line As String In System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(Path)
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(Line) Then Continue For
Dim Columns() As String = Line.Split(New Char() {" "c}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
If Columns.Count < 4 Then Continue For
Combobox1.Items.Add(Columns(0) & " " & Columns(2) & " " & Columns(3))
Next Line
But some of the rows only have
Column1, Column2 and Column3
Again I only want to display column1 and column3.

The below code is a sample code that is supposed to display the months in a combobox.
Dim months() As String = _
{"Select a month...",
"January", "February", "March"}
[code]....
But what am I supposed to do with this code? I have created and named the combobox "cboExpirationMonth", but where do I put this code? I tried to put it as a click event of the combobox, but that doesn't work. I created a button and tried to put the code in the button's click event, but that still doesn't populate the combobox.

I have a ComboBox which is bound with a DataSource from (obviously) a Database. However, there are 659 different entries inside this Database and I was hoping to tack on AutoComplete.
I tried setting the Source to the ListItems since, after initialization and the data is bound, all the items necessary are in fact inside the ComboBox so I had assumed that it would pick that up. I was wrong. I tried using a Custom source but VS errored out saying that I couldn't do that since the ComboBox was bound.
My question is, how can I utilize AutoComplete's "Suggest" mode with a bound ComboBox?

ATM I'm trying to color individual items on my combobox. While reading stuff I googled, it seems that the only way to do this is through the DrawItem event.My question is, will the draw item be 'called' when i assign text to the combo box? combobox.text = "string"

I have some validation set on my combobox and it works as it should, but the problem I have is that the user is unable to click on the exit button, or click on the X to close the form until they have entered a valid field - would it be possible to exclude these controls from the validation? So the user can click on exit, or click on the X?
My coding is:
Private Sub Combobox1_Leave(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Combobox1.Leave
If Not Combobox1.Items.Contains(Combobox1.Text) Then

In this windows forms app, I have a form with six comboboxes. Two are parents, one with a single child and the other with three children. All of these work beautifully except for one of the children. The code for each one is identical, and I've verified the query against the database a dozen times. I even have another of the children that is in the very same block of code. One works beautifully, the other one refuses to populate any data. Below is the code for the one that doesn't work. I would tell you on what line the error occurs, but it doesn't throw any errors. Try catches show nothing, and I have VS 2010 set to throw all errors, but I get nothing, just an empty combo box where there should be a list of names.
Public Class errorTracking_submit
Dim ConnectionString = "Data Source=dvmx6030MS2005_DEV1, 2755; user id =CRCUser;password=TWC5uck5;database=CRCTools;Connection Timeout=5"

I'm working with a ComboBox which has 14 items.
Using the following code I got a problem
vb
If Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0 Then MsgBox("item 1")ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 1 Then MsgBox("item 2") '...ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 9 Then MsgBox("item 9") ElseIf Me.ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 10 Then MsgBox("item 10") '...End If
The problem is that after the SelectedIndex = 9 it won't read properly the SelectedIndex = 10, it seems like it consider only the first number (1) instead of the whole one (10). In fact get the same result as if it was SelectedIndex = 1
