I have an Access DB and I am using a combobox to retrieve info from joining two tables. Does anybody know how to auto fill a combobox as soon as the user types the first letters. I have Auto expand on, but what I want is the combobox to give me suggestions if theres 2 or more close matches. so for example. if we have "Oil Change" "Change Tires" "Inspection"; and if the user starts typing "ch" I want the first two records to show up.

I need to create an auto-fill feature for the 1st Combo-Box. It should list the EmployeeID if Search-By Field is specified as Employee-Number. Similarly it should list Employee First Name along with Last Name if the Search-By Field is Employee-Name.
How can I do this? I have no clue, I am doing this for the first time. I am using SQLite, Visual Studio 2010.
Dim mySelectQuery As String = "SELECT " & Search & " FROM EmployeeTable WHERE Status LIKE '" & Status & "'"
Dim myConnString As String = "Data Source=" & Application.StartupPath & "DatabaseSimpleDB.db3"

View 1 RepliesWe received requests form via email through an automated system. On the backend of this system, one can view the requests in its original xml format (can be viewed through an internal site). I created a tool / webbrowser that among other things, auto-login to the varies sites in which I process these requests. What I would like to do next is how to auto-fill the web forms using the xml text. What I've done so far is with a click of a button, I copy the xml text from the internal site to a multi-line text box. An example of what is seen on the textbox is shown below. Note that the the name of the web fields are similar to the xml tags.

I am writing a program which allows me to log in to my favorite forum, and displays me my fav. threads, and automatically refreshes current thread every 30 seconds or so.For this, I first need to login to the forum page. Fortunately, the forum allows to login during posting a new message, and it's a public forum so browsing threads is possible without login. Therefore I can directly jump to the "edit article" page without login, fill in login information and write the post, and then send it altogether. Here is an example link for that:

Here comes my problem. I have searched for autofilling values and my code is like this:

Dim mynickname As HtmlElementCollection = mydoc.Forms("f").GetElementsByTagName("input").GetElementsByName("nickname")
Dim mypass As HtmlElementCollection = mydoc.Forms("f").GetElementsByTagName("input").GetElementsByName("pass")

I guess it doesn't set the value attribute, at least during debugging the 'outerHTML' property stays like this:
"<INPUT class=form_input type=password value="" name=pass>"
I got my regular fields like firstname,lastname, gender, birthyear, street, city, zip, phone. Which i can search through by just entering one of these fields.
Then i got a dropdown box which i was hoping to use a filter on. Every file is in a cabinet, but since those are somewhat alphabetically i have more then 1 cabinet for certain letters. This is why i wanted to use a filter to get a list of all people in a certain cabinet.
So i want my dropdownbox to automatically show the cabinets that are in the database(for example A...Z). If i choose B from the dropdownbox i want to see all the names that are in that cabinet in my datagridview.

I am running VS2008 and developing a Windows Form App in VB.Net. Is there not a bound multicolumn combobox like Access has had forever? If there is one buried in VS2008, the Windows OS or MPF 2010 or somewhere else would you mind sharing? I could hardly believe my eyes when I did not see one in the common controls list.
Not knowing the correct terminology, I would like this control to be a tool component that I can drag onto my form and set the binding and column properties and be done with it.Come on Microsoft VB.Net Dev Team... where have you been on this? This type of control has been out for umpteen years in Access and 3rd party took kits. There is nothing that says Rapid development like roll your own code! I have seen serveral articles on how it can coded;?

View 3 RepliesI am creating a form for entering technical data about a part into an Access database. In the same form I have several ComboBoxs that need to have their lists filled from the same reference table in my database. I have a number and unit field for the twist and bending radius properties. I made the unit fields ComboBoxes and I am trying to bind them to referance table in my database called UnitsLength. The relevant structure is as follows....
Form: NewPartForm
Database: CableDataSet
Main Table: PartMechanical - with fields: TwistNom, TwistUnits, BendingRadiusNom, BendingRadiusUnits
Reference Table: UnitsLength - with fields: Unit, Shorthand, Conversion Factor
First tired the following settings....
Data Source: Other Data Sources > NewPartForm List Instances > CableDatase
Display Member: UnitsLength.Shorthand
Value Member: UnitsLength.Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]
But the lists didn't populate.... Then I tried these settings
Data Source: UnitsLengthBindingSource
Display Member: Shorthand
Value Member: Unit
SelectedValue: PartMechanicalBindingSource > [The associated unit field]
But now every ComboBox displays the same value but still stores the data in the proper field... it just sets them all the same.

View 9 RepliesI am using VB 2008 Express to connect to an Access 2007 database. I have a combo box called SelectYearMonth that is populated by the database. When I used the Access report VBA, I used the AfterUpdate() event to calculate a sum. I need to know how to do the same operation in VB 2008 Express using the SelectedIndexChanged event of the combo box.
When I made a report in Access using VBA I coded my calculation as:
Me.ExactReprintTextbox = DSum("Pages", "HBELP_FINAL_Q", "YEARMONTH = " & [SelectYearMonth] & " AND JOBTYPE = 'E'")
While this works great with Access VBA, this syntax does not work in VB 2008 Express. How do I code this in VB 2008 Express?

What I need to do is limit the calculation results to the YEARMONTH selected in the combobox.
