View 4 RepliesI am new to vb.net and I am using visual studio 2010. I have two comboboxes on a form, each combobox is set to DropDownList so that a list of items can show in the combobox, but no text is allowed to be entered.
For combobox A, if user chooses item 1, the list of combobox B should be updated accordingly. I think this is quite common on a lot of applications. But I do not know to implement it. I even do not know the keyword to search for the relevant property or event handler.

I'm making a combobox on a form. I want the combobox to have a list of choices from a table in a db. The two columns are a String and a Date. I want the date column to only show the year. I'm hoping I have the code right as it is above, but I'm not positive I've done the whole date thing right.
I've been trying to fix this for a while now and have yet to find a solution that works, I want it so that when an item is added another of the same name cannot be added. Here's what I have
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To ComboBox1.Items.Count() - 1
If ComboBox1.Items.Item(i) = TextBox1.Text Then
'do nothing

View 2 RepliesI 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.

View 1 RepliesIs using Public Property the best way to achieve the following.From a drop down combobox, a list of options are available. Each option in the combobox has a number of public properties that need to be associated with it.When a option is selected, the user will then have two buttons that each call a different sub, the appropriate options are passed to the sub.Each option will always have the same properties required to be passed.So I'm looking at something like this.
Public Class Parameters
Public Property server As String
Public Property replica As String
Public Propery path As String
End Class

View 3 RepliesI have created a drop-down list box that holds 8 numbers representing a month span (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25 months). In order to prevent users from typing just anything into the text box above the combo box, I changed it to a drop-down listbox. The other requirement that I was hoping to implement was for the user to be able to type a number, after which the selection would jump to the appropriate item (i.e. the user types in '1', and the selection jumps to 12). This partially works. It will jump to 12, for example, but immediately after the user types the '1', the Selected Index event changes. The user cannot scroll down or up after typing in a number.

View 3 RepliesI want to populate a Combo Box with a list of names and from that have the contact information (address, phone, email, ect..) populate a series of textboxes. The list is roughly 20 names, but it could grow to a hundred or more. Since the contact information changes periodically, I would like a very easy way to maintain it (Excel or Access).
Update: I am just trying to understand whether I should use Linq (have to learn it) or is there some other way this should be done.
problem with my code is that have a list and now need to read that list to 3different list as a title, total cost, currenlty tagged item? this is my code I have made so far:
Public Class Form1
Dim decSubTotal As Decimal
Public g_selected As String
Public m_Name() As String = {"Black Howk Down" & "Fear and Loafing" & "Fight"}
