VS 2010 Loading Combobox (remote) Database (threading)?
Oct 7, 2011
I'm loading 3 comboboxes and a treeview with values, from a remote database when the app starts. As we all know the app freezes until it's done loading. I want to speed things up.
Dim _thread As Thread
_thread = New Thread(AddressOf test_loading)
_thread.Start()
[code]....
When I execute this code I get the following error:
mycomboboc.Items.Add(reader.Item("columnname").ToString)Cross-thread operation not valid: Control '' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.

I'm loading a folder (path), which contains folders and files, in a treeview according the combobox-text.
When I load the app. the combobox is filled with the paths. I'm using the SelectedIndexChanged to load the treeview. Everything works.
The issue is that it also starts to load the paths the treeview also gets loaded (slow), but it should only load when I select an item in the combobox.
I tried comboboxselectedtextchanged etc, but without any luck. Besides that loading the files and folders is slow.

I'm trying to use LINQ to SQL in Visual Basic 2010 Express.
It allows me to create the .dbml file, but in order to drag items from the Database Explorer window to the design surface, I first have to get my database listed in the Database Explorer!(this is a remote SQL Server database - not a local .mdf)
I already have a good, working connection string to the remote SQL Server database, but that doesn't help me when I'm trying to generate the DBML at design time.
Can anyone tell me how to get my remote SQL Server database identified in the Database Explorere window? When I try the "Add Connection", I am limited to Access, SQL Server Compact, or SQL Server Database File. If I try to enter the IP address & port of my DB Host I get a 'database file does not exist' message. Doesn't seem to want to let me point to a remote DB server...

In my Thesaurus application, I use a combobox as a lookup for keywords. On the bottom of the form I have a datagridview that displays the synonyms for the currently selected keyword. The problem I'm having is that whenever I have selected a keyword that has synonyms, or in other words, whenever a keyword is selected that populates the datagridview, and at the same time I try to close the form or remove the keyword my form gets messed up.

I have been working on a solution that uses Combo Boxes to fill DGV I have 3 RDM tables, 3 Combo boxes and 1 DGV Probably best way to explain tables is this way
Table 1 OwnerID 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ( There are 5 owners)
Table 2 CDID 1=(1,2) 2=(3,4) 3=(5,6) 4=(7,8) 5=(9,10) (each Owner has 2 records)
Table 3 CDTrackID 1,1=(1-10) 1,2=(11-14) 2,3=(15-20) 2,4=(21-27) 3,5=(28-36) 3,6=(37-40) 4,7=(41-44) 4,8=(45-47) 5,9=(48-55) 5,10=(56-60)
where 1,1=(1-10) means
Owner 1 record 1 has 10 records and
Where 1,2=(11-14) means
Owner 1 record 2 has 4 records
etc etc
On Form Load Combobox 1 loads all the data from table 1 with no output in DGV (Works well) (5 records Perfect)
When I select a record from Combobox 1 it loads relation data from table 2 into Combobox 2 and also displays same in DGV (Works well) eg if I select record 3 in combobox 1 it loads records 5 and 6 into combobox 2 and DGV (2 Records. Perfect)Now comes the Problem When I select a record from Combobox 2 it is supposed to load the relation data from table 3 into ComboBox 3 and display same in DGV eg Combobox 2 has records 5 and 6. If I select record 5 It should load 3,5(28 - 36) OR If I select record 6 It should load 3,6(37 - 40) instead If I select Record 5 then Record 1,1(1-10) loads into combobox 3 and DGV If I select Record 6 then Record 1,2(11-14) loads into combobox 3 and DGV Regardless of which record I select from Combobox 2 (1,2); (3,4); (5,6): (7,8); (9,10) it always loads the same records into combox 3 and DGV Sample code for combobox 1
SQL = "Select * From CD Where OwnerID-1 = '" & cbxOwner.SelectedIndex & "'"
Sample Code for Combobox 2
SQL = "Select TrackName From CDTracks Where CDID-1 = '" & cbxCD.SelectedIndex & "'"
[code]....
The only thing I can think of is that my query constantly sees 2 records and numbers them as 1 and 2 thereby displaying records 1,1(1-10) OR 1,2(11-14)?

I've got a combo box that's bound to a virtualpathbinding source. The column it's bound to (Display and value members) have duplicates that I'm trying to hide/remove.
I cannot remove the duplicates programatically as it errors (the control is bound, cannot change data).

I have a picture box on my form along with a combo box with a number of different options. So anyway when a combo box item is selected I want it to look in the dataset for the selected item's row and pick out the image to load and then using an IF statement it sets the image (or should).
Dim RaceImg As String = DS.Tables("tblRaces").Rows(ID).Item("RaceImg")
If RaceImg = "AusGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/AusGP.png")
ElseIf RaceImg = "MalGP" Then
GP_Picture.Image = Image.FromFile("./Track Images/MalGP.png")
End If
I have tried a number of different ways to get this working, I have tried them in the resources for the program and also tried the following code
GP_Picture.Image = "./Track Images/AusGP.png"
It seems like the picture box isn't redrawing or something? Just to add it will load the first image which is the AusGP because thats the first option in the combo box, after that none of the others will load.

I have a few combo boxes that need to be loaded up once and displayed multiple times (whenever the main form is opened) The reason for this is because it's taking about 10 seconds for the form to load each time it's opened due to unnecessary re-querying. Here is an example of what I have as a combobox source and what I've done. I've put the query, connection, etc... in a module and call it on the login form - I don't get any errors but the data does not load into the combos.
'In Module
sql = "SELECT DIR_ID, DIR_NM FROM LTC_FBS_DIR ORDER BY DIR_NM ASC"
RConStr = String.Format(RConStrFormat, LoginForm.txtUser.Text, LoginForm.txtPass.Text)
'using instead of dim connemp
Dim connemp4 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(RConStr)

i have been hunting the web for a solution or example to my problem which is loading and xml file into DataGridView with combobox for the cells and then loading the comboxes with data that the user can choose from to change the cell value to and output an updated xml file. Below is my code with the column creation commented out for now, with this code the 7 columns are added with comboboxes to the datagrid but when I read in the xml file its adds the data to another 7 columns on the end and not into the columns I have created first.

I have a completely basic program here that I want to simply take text from a textbox and the selection from a combobox, and then run the following:
CODE:
Obviously WKID and PROCESS are the variables it will be pulling from the data that was put in by the user. That code was just in a simple batch file that I made with 2 variables. I am wanting to pull those 2 variables in when clicking the "kill process" button, it will run a command simliar to the above and end a process on a remote networked computer.

I am trying to write a vb2008 program that allows a user to select an airport from a combobox and then once the value has been selected it searches a comma separated text file once it has found the airport selected ( always the first column in the file) in the file it populates 8 other textboxes with the row data from the file. The idea is to select the airport and then it calls up the radio frequencies associated with the airport.I assume you have to call the data into an array and the search thorough the array until the combobox.selectedvalue = the value in the array, but i am unsure how to do this Ideally I would like to be able to the user to add data to the file thats why I used a combox, but I am having trouble trying to get the boxes to populate so first things first.

I've been raking my brain for quite some time on this. Is there any way with VB.NET that I can use multiple IP's in one instance of a program? For example, I want to be able to navigate to a web page 10 times at once, with each one using a different IP. I want them to be parallel (multi-threaded) rather than going sequentially. Going sequentially, I could just do the action, change the IP, do the action, change the IP.

I have a button and when it's clicked a HTTP request is sent out to a website to do a few things, but because its got to load the external resources it makes the interface frozen. I've moved the HTTP onto another thread using the follow
VB.NET Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim Thread1 As New System.Threading.Thread(AddressOf check_accounts)
[Code]...
When i want to update a label that is on my main form (from the check_accounts sub). I know that isn't the right way, but i have no idea what the right way is. All the documentation i can find is very (excuse me for this) nerdy and really doesn't offer much insight on how to incorporate it into a project.
I want to be able to have a numericupdown box that can let the user change the amount of threads they want to use. I assume more threads allow the http requests to be done faster and at the same time?Also if i wanted to pause the HTTP requests, would the best method to use be pausing the thread?

I have an application that performs a lot of busy work. All of the work is performed using a BackgroundWorker and the point of execution is the DoWork Event of the BackgroundWorker.On the UI thread, before the workload begins, I display a PictureBox that contains an animated GIF that illustrates progress; for the most part this works fine and the UI thread is not paused or slowed while the BackgroundWorker does its job. There is however, one instance where the UI thread is impacted by the work being done and it defeats the whole purpose of putting this work in a separate thread. In this application, the user must wait until the work completes before they can move to the next step, so my sole reason for moving this all to a BackgroundWorker was so that I could display a smooth, uninterrupted progress indicator on the UI thread while this work was being done, so that the user could see that something was happening.
The case where the work being done is impacting the UI thread (pausing/delaying the PictureBox animation) deals with a referenced COM object.
[Code]...
All of the COM object event handlers and subsequent functions are appropriately using Delegates, but I am not sure why the ProcessFiles method would cause the UI thread to hang while the work completes; I thought that was the whole purpose of the BackgroundWorker.

So I am currently attempting to wrap my head around create multi-threaded programs and I am currently running into an issue when using a Shared variable across multiple threads.The program is structured as follows: Public Shared IsActive as Boolean
Main Thread = GUISets the Value of IsActive through a Button ControlTwo Worker ThreadsBoth threads are while loops that read the IsActive Boolean Ex:While IsActive = True Do Work End WhileHowever when I change the value of IsActive from the Main Thread it causes the worker threads to stop (ThreadState = 16).
I have been reading that I have to synchronize/lock shared resources and have tried SyncLock and Monitor methods without success (it is entirely possible I am not using the above correctly, so If someone could provide proper examples for the above situation using the mentioned methods please share them).

to some server via an UdpClient. However, I need to make sure that all commands send are separated by a 1 second delay. If there is no delay, two commands send within this 1 second timespan will not be received both; only the first or the second command will get through.he commands are sent in a background thread at the moment, because it might take some time before the command is sent. I keep looping until the command has been sent, like this:

Public Sub Send(command As String)
