VS 2010 Combobox Default Value - Display The Name Of The Person Who Is Doing The Selection As The Default?
Nov 25, 2011
I have a combobox which contains a sample of names selected from a table.Currently the default name displayed in the box is the 1st name found in the table. What I would like to do is display the name of the person who is doing the selection as the default. The name is stored in a public variable 'PubName' and I do not want the user to be able to type into the combobox themselves.Is this possible?

I need to print the contents of 3 textboxs to default printer. what examples I have found dont seem to work.

I am creating my own browser. I want to make an option...to set as the browser to default.To do that I have to:Write a code which opens html(generally internet) file through my browser(form load event) DoneChange the "open with..." of the .html,.xml.... files Problem I want to change the open with event from my web browser. Actually i want an options form which will ask the user "Do you want to set /Browser name/ to be your default browser?" If yes then it will change the default options of the internet files.
I have a vb.net application, and I have a combobox which should contains a display member (text) and a value member (integer).the problem is:I want to set a default value to that combobox when the form load but I don't have a load event as I create the form and the combobox dynamically. i have used the combobox.selectedvalue =6 but it doesn't work.note: I can't use the selectedindex property because sometimes the value comes from a DB table primary key which is not the same as the combobox index.
the code:
Private Sub fill_combo(ByRef combo As ComboBox, ByVal nodes As HashMap) Dim comboData = New BindingList(Of KeyValuePair(Of Integer, String)) nodes.movefirst() Do While Not nodes.eof
I can not locate the correct method to make the first item in a combo box visible.
The app starts with an empty combo box. The user makes a radio box selection then clicks Go! (how original). The combo box is loaded via an LDAP query. All this is working just fine. The problem is the combo box still appears to the user to be empty. They must click the arrow to see the options.
How do I make the first option 'visible' after the users clicks Go!?

OK i have a combobox on the form. I have entered 4 values. I have left the TEXT field blank.Is there any way i can set the default SELECTEDINDEX of the combobox in the form design window. I know how to do it using code. If i set the TEXT field to one of the item values will it automatically select the corresponding INDEX
I programatically / runtime created combobox and bind it to a datasource but can not set its default value. Since I am using the Handler of SelectedValueChanged, this is causing the program to mis-fire. Here is the code I am using.
Public WithEvents T_combo as ComboBox 'dictionary holds data to use in other parts of program Dim T_Dict As New Dictionary(Of String, String)
I got a combobox which is filled with values from datasource. By default the first value is chosen which is fine but I need to display "Choose country" as the default combobox text. The user then can choose from the drop down list.
i create my custom combobox control and i'd like to set DropDownStyle property on DropDownList but it not works correctly. [Code] When i put my custom control in my form i want to see DropDownStyle set to DropDownList and not DropDown as default.
I have a small section of a windows form that allows users to select when a customer should be called (i.e. day of the week, time and inbound or outbound)When the form is loaded I will extract the information using a dataset and bind to form controls. I want to use a combo box for call stautus - inbound or outbound - however wish to give the user the choice at runtime.My thoughts are I would need to set a static list (so the user could choose) and set the default or displayed value to the info the dataset has extracted.This code to select the index doesnt work when I am comparing the dataset result to the "Outbound" string even though I am using the ToString method.

Is it possible to set a project default for VB.NET winforms projects so that the default Modifier for controls added to winforms is Private (not Friend)?I know there's a "modifiers" property in the properties window so I can set it for each individual control however I would like to change the project so from now on myself and other developers have to specifically decide to change from friend to private. (Which I would strongly discourage them from doing).I believe there is no way of doing this, but on another forum a while ago someone mentioned it would be possible with an add-in (but didn't name the add-in or where to get it).

I have a listbox on my form which gets items added as the program progresses, when there are more items than the box can display, the vertical scrollbar appears, fine... so far so good.I would like the scrollbar default position to be at the bottom of it's column so that the last entered item is displayed but can't find the relevant command, I assume there is such a command.
