I am trying to bind a simple 2 column data table to a ListBox control with the following code. I am not getting an error but the ListBox is not displaying any items. When debugging, it looks like the DataSource is set to Nothing.
lbAvailable.Items.Clear()
lbAvailable.DataSource = MyDS.Tables("tableAvailableHotFixes")
lbAvailable.DisplayMember = "Name"

I developed a windows forms app, using VisualBasic in VS 2010. In my form, first I declared a variable as DataTable (Dim VarTable as New DataTable).
Second, changed the DataSource property of my DataGridView (DataGridView1.Datasource=VarTable)
Third, I filled the VarTable in this way: using a resulset from SqlDataReader, i added row by row.
Dim Result As SqlDataReader=CommandSQL.ExecuteReader
Do While Result.Read()
Dim RowToAdd As DataRow
RowToAdd=VarTable.NewRow()
RowToAdd("Code")=Result("Code")
RowToAdd("Name")=Result("Name")
VarTable.Rows.Add(RowToAdd)
Loop
Fourth, after the user changed data in datagridview, I saved the data back to SQL, cleared VarTable (VarTable.Rows.Clear()), and back to top of form to accept a new code. But here, problems begin. When I execute again the whole code described, the datagridview dont show the entire rows, and sometimes crashed with different errors. Solution? Dont fill VarTable row by row. Use VarTable.Load(Result) to populate the VarTable. I don't know why now works, But just I wanted to share this information.
I've read (or the only book that covers ado 3.5) is Murach ADO 3.5 and throughout the book, the author recommends using object binding so that's what I've been doing. However, I had a chance to look at all the codes for our applications at work, and only datatables are used.Was curious as to the difference/pros and cons between binding to an object, and binding to a table. I guess my real question is which one should I be using, datatable or object binding? Is there a definite answer or does it depends on the situation and what I want to do?

I'm following advice to load data to a DataTable, binding to a BindingSource then a DataGridView. But some exzamples I've found use a DataAdapter, not a DataTable. [code]
View 3 RepliesAm in the process of architecting a new windows forms application, and I intend to use Visual Basic 2008 and SQL Server Express 2005. This is my first application in .Net and I really want to observe the best OOD & OOP principles to create an application that is easy to maintain and extend (add new functionality). My issue is in regard to databinding on the UI. From experience, what do you guys recommend to use for databinding? Should I return datasets/datatables from my Business Layer and bind these to UI controls or should I return Business Objects and bind these to UI controls? And what are the pros and cons of each approach?
View 1 RepliesNew to reports here. Using VB.NET, my application makes use of datatables it creates from a postgresql database.These datatables are defined at runtime rather than design-time, and I would like some way of generating reports from these datatables at runtime as well.
Should I be trying to create the report template at design-time, and then "binding" a datatable to it at runtime?
is there any way that i could link/bind multiple binding source to only one binding source navigator?

View 8 RepliesI use objectbinding to display client data in a datagridview. The datagridview also contains a counry-column allowing the user to choose the country of the client.Unfortunately, databinding of comboboxcolumn does not seem to work if an own business class is used. Using a simple collection instead works well.Copy the sample code into a new windows project and the programm runs fine. Then comment and uncomment the two lines with "XXX" and the code will fail. Why and does anybody know how to make the sample code work by using the business object class(variable named "newClientListVariable" in the sample)? [code]
View 3 RepliesI started programming in VBA, then graduated to VB6, and I am now using VB.NET 2008 Express.I have read, in the various posts, that I should keep Option Explicit and Option Strict both on, in order that I use correct VB.NET code and not VB6.I am trying to do that but am totally confused with the results of one of my programmes that was running perfectly with Option Strict off, but now advises:Option Strict On disallows late binding. To me it appears that I am using early binding, but to be honest I am not clear on the binding situation. I have checked through a number of google items, and a number of this Forum's items without seeing the light.[code]

I have a datatable and I apply a filter to the defaultview.rowfilter property of that datatable. If I then loop through the rows collection of the datatable, will I only be able to see those rows that the filter applies to, or will it loop through all the rows?

View 5 RepliesI have a datagridview bound to a datatable setting its datasource property to the datatable. I would like to have a child form that contains a list of columns associated with the datatable that contains a checkbox that will allow the user to hide and show the columns ( I do not know the best control to use here) (I assume this is the easy part as All i need to do is loop through each of the datatable's columns to get the column name)
now I would like save these visible columns on some event like form_closing so that the next time the user opens the form up it will remember the settings
I came across a problem with using a BindingSource as my DataGridViews.DataSource. Whenever I applied a filter to a column in the BindingSource and the user makes changes that don't match the column filter the DataGridViewRows would automatically disappear. A similar thing would happen when applying a Sort to a column. If the user made any changes the DridGirdViewRows would automatically sort causing rows to be moved around. This was not ideal for my application and there isn't anyway to stop this from happening with the BindingSource.
To correct this issue I have to use subsets of data. I use a DataView to apply the filter and sort to the main DataTable, which creates the subset DataTable.The problem is when I use the DataView.ToTable method I loose the Primary Key and RowError information. So I have to reapply this information everytime the user filters or sorts the DataGridView.Is there a better way to get a subset DataTable?[code]...
I have a datatable that has a resource in one field and hours used in another, it looks like this -

View 2 RepliesI am trying to add NewRow to the database by using datatable in dataset, but before I do that I want to make sure that row is not already there. I create new row for the datatable I am working with, fill it with information. I fill datatable with the row from database that has the same primary key as my NewRow by using tableadapter.fill method, but when I do that my NewRow that was never added to the datatable is filled with information from database(and not information that I assigned to it). I count rows in my datatable before I fill it and it's 0, so why is my NewRow affected by Fill command? (I am using VB.NET 2005 Framework 2.0)
