VS 2010 Limit Text Entry In DataGridView?
Jul 21, 2011
Okay, I've got a datagridview in my WinForms app that auto-builds the column list from a datatable schema. It's working fine, except that it allows the user to enter values too long for the database field. For example, I have a "name" field that is defined in the Sql-Server database as a varchar(50). Is there any way to limit that cell (column?) so that it only accepts 50 characters? Right now it lets them enter anything and throws an exception later.

I have a single form in Visual Studio 2010...in that form...
TextBox = txtSearch
Button = cmdSearch
DataGridView = GridView1
GridView1 is bound to a View, tblAccounts.
tblAccounts includes multiple columns, including a text field for 'AccountName'...this name can be in one of two columns.I'm trying have a user enter any part of an AccountName in txtSearch, click cmdSearch, and return all matches in tblAccounts to GridView1.

I'm trying to create a program for my kid cousin; It's a small learning program for him since he is just as interested in cars as I am; and a fun change of pace for me learning something I've always wanted to try!I believe I've got it all figured out; except for how to make the text box entry relate to the message box pop-up. I want it so he learns how to type/ spell/ learn about cars; and to be more of a challenge to me.Here is the program I have started; and a screen cap of what the program physically looks like.

All programmers would want to prevent the users from overflowing input data fields. The DataGridView feature allows the programmer to specify the MaximumInputLength property for a DataGridView column at design time but it does not give the programmer access to

I got this error message when I only typed about 60characters. I have no idea why this happened to me since I have my address datatype set to varchar(100), I even had it set to varchar(MAX) at one stage but that made no difference. May I know what I've done?

I have a UI that uses datagridviews / bindingsource / datatables of typed dataset for data entry. The dataset itself is serialized to a varbinary(max) in SQL. (i.e. no tableadapter, backend schema).I would like to limit the number of rows the user can enter into some of the grids (the data is used to fill PDF forms and I don't want them entering more rows than the forms can accomodate.).I have subclassed the datagridview, added a rowlimit property and tried to manipulate the AllUsertoAddRows property
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Public Class dgv
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.DataGridView[code]......
The behavior I see is that the messagebox comes up after leaving the max row even when the user is trying to leave the grid. I can lose the messagebox and deal with notification some other way but I thought someone else may have come up with something a little more sophisticated to handle simply causing attempting to add to many records to navigate out of the grid to the next UI control.

I have a big issue which I have been struggling with for days now. I have a richtextbox where users Can input text and print it.
My problem is that i don't want to allow more than one page to be printed so i need to prevent the users in inputting more text than what fits to one page.
I have word wrap set to True which means that i really can't count the lines since they are determined by number of return/enter hits. I can't set the character to a max because blank Lines and spaces Can cause this to differ very much.
What i really need i a way to prevent the users in inserting more text than would fit inside the richtextbox frame and the frame may not be resizeble.

Cause I just dont get whats going on here. I have a bunch of combo boxes linked to their own Tables in my database, 14 in total. My problem is that only 13 of them work and every one I add after 13 doesnt work for some reason.So I make a ComboBox, press the arrow in the upper right corner and click "Use Data Bound Items", Then I fill in the rest as it should be. But only the "Selected Value" function actually works. I can fill in data to my other tables manually through this ComboBox, but I can not view my Data Source! If I use the same ComboBox and use any other Table it works, but not anything past my 13th table. The BindingSource is there, so is the TableAdapter. If I preview a select quary to the database it works as it should. But for not in the ComboBox!
Its driving me mad, can someone explain to me what might be going on here?

I have a maskedtextbox that i want to limit character input in it but i can't manage to figure it out.The date type is "yyyy-mm-dd" and the mask is "1300/00/00" (it is not gregorian calender, it is persian )In the TextChanged event i am changing the bindingsource filter.Because of this i don't want the user enters invalid date. For example the user enters 9 in here : "1300/90/00" i want to prevent this from happening before TextChanged event occur. (the place isn't important i just want to stop user from entering an invalid month or day)I have tried the KeyPress event but i don't know how to detect where in the textbox user is entering a character.
Note that i know already how to validate and i have a code for that but the TypeValidationCompleted event occur when user does all changes and leave the textbox.

I need to limit the 1 line text entered in a XtraGrid repository editor to its column fixed width. I cannot use a monospaced font and MaxLenght because this field will be shown in a report.In KeyPress event handler I tried to create a Label, put the string on it and compare its PreferedSize. Width to the column's Width. It almost worked well but is not easy to control Paste operations if I have to remove the exceeding chars (f.ex.: if I change the text value, the cursor jumps to 0).I also tried using ActiveEditor. CreateGraphics. Measure String but cannot get it to draw(measure) the text the same way DevExpress does.If I could catch a Before_WordWrap event it would be a solution.

i am pulling together a cash register that will allow both bar code product entry and manual key entry.imagine if you have a tin of beans in front of you, in a small corner shop they would probably type "47" and then hit "Produce". Fairly straight forward as I have the button Produce to act upon my code and update my salestrans.mdb but,if you scan the bar code I want the same form to handle both 'real' actions, (i assume that keyboard emulation barcode scanner includes "ENTER" after providing 13 digits)....
Q. in perhaps a long winded way i want to know how to kick off an event based on the "ENTER" key being activiated by the barcode scanner)?i do not want to have to hit any buttons if i am scanning bar codes.

I'm trying to set up Name entry in a text box, and I don't know how to make it so it is Letters only, not alphanumeric. (spaces too) How do I set up a date label for the form using the current date? On a try statement, I'm attempting to set up two different Quantity exceptions, one for radio buttons and one for quantity in a text box, is this possible or do I have to break it up into 2 statements? Or do i have to set up a numeric if statement like I'm trying to do with the name entry.

I am trying to make a program with a bar code reader for the first time. I am programming with VB 2005. I want to differentiate a bar code entry to keyboard entry. My questions:
1. Does bar code reader generate a keydown (or keypress) event for each of the digits of the entry? For example, if the barcode read: 1234567890, does that mean that there will be 10 keydown (or keypress) events for that single barcode that was read?
2. I have read from the posts that the best way to differentiating keyboard vs bar code input is to analyse the time between keystroke (for less than certain number of milliseconds).
