Change Background Color Of Item In Listbox / When Its String Value Is Equal To Something?

Oct 14, 2011

i have a listbox that contains the words "week1", "week2",all the way up to "week52" and when i select a week from the listbox it will retrieve a value from a mysql database that will represent a progress bar value. my progress bar has a range of 0-120 and i would like to have all the weeks that have values higher than 100 to be highlighted or marked somehow, in the listbox. so my question is, "is there a way to set the background color of certain weeks in the listbox to orange based on the value that they represent on the database?

for example for "week1", the value is 114, so when the listbox loads, i want the background color of the item "week1" in the list to be orange (indicating that it's current value is higher than 100)? i know that this requires me to implement a user defined drawing function for the listbox items but i dont know where i would even start. i would like this to be somewhat automatic so that it checks the values and changes the background colors of any value higher than 100, instead of me specifying a name of the item.

Cast/convert From List(Of DataRow) To List(Of String)?

May 22, 2012

I'm trying to solve a problem regarding types of list. First of all I have a stored procedure in my DB which does a select of a single column and I try to proceed it in my app in VB. By making a method function I declared a DataTable that loads through the SqlCommand(with the CloseConnection behavior). After that I publicly declared a List(Of String) which needs to be populated with the rows/items from the stored procedure that is on the way. Below is my snippet of the code:

Dim dt As New DataTable()
Try
If conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then

[Code]....

It's LPrefix = collection.Cast(Of String)() where I get an exception error telling me that I can't really convert it. The old fashion way is to iterate with for/for each loop but that's not what I want for best use of performance especially if the list will have thousands of rows from a single column. So basically, I want to insert those items from that DataTable to the List(Of String) without For/For Each loop.

Running on VisualStudio2010 Ultimate, .NET FrameWork 4.0.

Change Color Of One ListBox Item

Mar 9, 2011

I'm making a small program in VB.NET. I have a listBox and a button. I'd like to be able to press the button and have the selected listBox item change it's foreColor to green. I've tried many ways of doing this, ranging from overriding the draw method to using a listView (listBox is much better for what I'm doing, please don't recommend that I use a listView, I've already tried it.)At first I thought this would be simple, but it's the exact opposite and I'm very frustrated that such a simple task should be so difficult. I don't want to use any third-party controls, as I'd have to completely re-write my application.

PositionChanged Does Not Fire For Listbox When The 1st Item In The List Is Selected?

Feb 9, 2011

My listbox is bound to a datatable. The listbox is initially set to not show any data using selectedindex = -1.I have a second listbox that populates based upon the entry selected in listbox1. I use the Bindingsource PositionChanged event to populate the 2nd listbox.My problem is when the 1st entry in the listbox is selected the PositionChanged event does not fire, because the row selected is the default current position of the bindingsource. Can the Bindingsource be set to a "Null" position, I tried Position = -1 and that has no effect.

How To Add Event Handler For Property Change Of List Item

Apr 5, 2011

I have a class called solution. This class has a property named cost. I also have a class called solutionList that inherits List(Of Solution). I have an instance of the solutionList class in another class called solutionGroup. Within the solutionGroup class I have a property called totalCost that sums the solution.cost property for all solutions in the solutionList.

But, I need a way to know when the cost has changed so that I can recalculate the solutionGroup.totalCost. I've added events to the methods that add or remove solutions from the list but I need a way to know if someone does something like
SolutionList.Item(0).cost = 100.
How to raise an event when the cost property of a solution that is in the solutionList is changed but with no luck.

Here is my solutionList class:
Public Class solutionList
Inherits List(Of Solution)
Friend Event listChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Public Sub New()
End Sub

Get Listbox Text Using Index Of Its Item?

Aug 19, 2010

In simple terms, I want to compare the value of a databound listbox display member with another string. However; I need to convert the listbox databound items to an array first as I may have to do 1,000's of comparisons on this.

I have a databound listbox from a sql server table that populates fine. I'm trying to retrieve the display value of a listbox item without selecting the item. My goal is to compare items in listbox1 with items in listbox2 and if item is in listbox1 matches an item I want to load into Listbox2, then I do not add the item to Listbox2. Listbox 2 is not databound but contents I'm loading come from a datatable.

So, I iterate through the items in listbox2's datatable but as I'm adding the items from the datatable to the listbox2, I check if the item exists in listbox1. The data that is being compared is the Displaymember of Listbox1 and a string value I want to manually load into listbox2.[code]....
