May 26, 2009
I'm in a bit of a quandry. I am trying to build a simple search form where the user selects the column title and in puts the criteria then clicks the search button. This is the code I am using
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
details = ComboBox2.Text
'column name selected by user
specifics = TextBox1.Text
'criteria input by user
I have a datagridview with 2 columns, 1 is Batch_Number and another is Existing_Stock, there is about 6000 rows.My question is, I want to be able to write in a TextBox and hit a Search Button to search the Batch_Number column and filter out or highlight the row with the matching number to see the Existing_Stock
I have three controls on my form; Textbox1, cboCity, lstCity When something (lets say "a") is entered in the TextBox1; I want to get each and every item in combobox cboCity that starts with "a" and add them to listbox lstCity.
I need some guidance on the best way to proceed with searching a file content. I have a large file (see attachment) that is in text form, some of these files could be upto 50 times as big, therefore creating a huge file. These files contain information that is produced from another application and therefore I am unable to change the format of the file.
I have a combo box and use the SelectedIndexChanged event. I noticed when I assign a value to the combo box that this event fires even though the user does not click on the control. Can you tell me how to test for when the user clicks on it and actually selects a value from it?
I'm using SQL as a database in VB 2010, I already add a table to my form as a datagrid view but I don't know how to add buttons for filtering, deleting and adding things in my table, for example I want to have one button on my form call it search button to search in table names or Phone Numbers. how can I do that and where shall I write the code?
I have a search function in my app which is a groupbox with a textbox that contains the search keyword and a couple of radiobuttons. Do I have to create a keydown event for every single radiobutton and textbox? Or is there a better way? I tried making a keydown event for the groupbox but that didn't work.
If your interested, this is my
Private Sub Search() Dim textBoxContents As String = txtBoxKeyword.Text Dim keyword As String = Nothing
I have a MS access database connected to a VB2008 developed software. I want to make a search button to search through all the tables in the database. how can I do this?
I want to link a field in table one to a field in table 2 in the database so that they are the same ( whenever I change what is in table 1 table 2 changes to the same automaticaly )
I am doing a simple database project.I need to give the input in the database which is an access db from my input form and i have managed to do this part right.then i need to retrieve the details from the db using multiple search fields and show them in the datagrid view.I have 8 search fields(5 textboxes and 3 combo boxes). I also have included 4 other buttons which respectively clears the search boxes;clear the results of the gridview; show all results from the database;go to the input form and offcourse 1 search button.now all the buttons working fine except the search button. actually when i click on the search button if i include sql query for all the search fields only the first one works and also if i have clicked any other buttons before clicking the search button nothing happens, no result is shown and it happens the same if i search once and clicked any other buttons and come back to search, no result. I need to show the results in the gridview depending on the user input on those search criterias. user should be able to search in any combinations.I am using the below codings in my search form. the combo boxes are not bound.datagrid is bound to database though.
Public Class Paxsearchfrm Private Sub Paxsearchfrm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'LAFDataSet.Table1' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. End Sub

I've got a form that populates a DataGridView from an excel file. How would I filter that DataGridView so only the search criteria are visible. I need to search through 2 columns by all rows. I'm not very good with datasources I guess and can't figure out what all I need to accomplish this. DataSets, DataViews, DataTables.
Currently I am searching through my list to find Customers that match on Address. I need to match on both address and city. How do I rewrite my lambda Expression to match both criteria?
[code]the main piece deals with the binding source filter.

Its for a School project the search window looks like the attached picture
I am building a real estate website. I have a table for properties (i.e. "houses"), a table for pictures, a table for features, etc. So each property's data comes from three, not only one table. I need to provide a function that retrieves requested property data depending on a search criteria, for example:
Hi, I have a project that works with a database. It groups al my films per category. I use this code to group everything by category. The categories are chosen in the combobox cboCateogorie.
Private Sub cboCategorie_SelectedIndexChanged_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboCategorie.SelectedIndexChanged
If Not cboCategorie.SelectedValue Is Nothing Then cboCategorie.DataBindings.Clear() cboCategorie.DataBindings.Add(New Binding("Text", objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblCategorieen, "CategorieID")) Dim dtvDVDInhoud As DataView
Now I've made a textbox and a button which I can search with. But I want that my category in the combobox changes when a film is selected with that search. Now I already have this code to search with a joker sign.
Private Sub btnZoek_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnZoek.Click Dim dtvZoeken As DataView dtvZoeken = objDtsMuziekcollectie.tblDVDInhoud.DefaultView dtvZoeken.Sort = "DvdID"
dtvZoeken.RowFilter = "Titel like '" & txtZoekveld.Text & "*'"
End Sub
Ok, so what I want is the opposite off what I do when I select a category in a combobox. Now I actually select a film and this film also has an ID, namely DvdID and with that I want that the combobox shows the category where the film belongs to.

I'm trying to build a search tool for my application... I have a form with a bunch of criteria which the user may or may not fill in. The tool is looking up against one table in the database (OLEDB) so I wanted to pull in all the data from the table into a dataset (when the form loads) and perform the search on it. I'm not sure how to search through datasets... this is the code I have now:
Public Class TxnLookup Dim daLookup As OleDbDataAdapter Dim dsLookup As DataSet Dim cbLookup As OleDbCommandBuilder
[code]....
but I get an error on the foundrows = line ("Value of type 1-dimensional array of system.data.datarow cannot be converted to system.data.datarow").... is there a better way for me to search the dataset?
Am developing a software for submission as project. As a part of it, am planning to create a Phonebook package. I created a database in access and i integrated it in VB.Net.
Information: Database name : Contacts.accdb DataTable : Contacts Contents in table : First Name,Last Name, Phone, Address... Platform : VB.NET in Visual Studio 2010
I integrated the access database in VB.NET using Data->Add new Data source and I successfully made it. Now I got a DataGridView. :) Now arises a question How to search a name in "First Name" Column? I just Googled to find row Filter. That appeared gr8 to me till I got a problem of adding new records. Once I applied Filter, I couldn't see the Addition of new records and I can't make selection process in DataGridView. Then I found that Filtering is not Searching. Any one to help me in searching the data in Dataview?
I'll post my codes here:

Is it possible to build a search engine to use on a DVD that contains Word documents, text documents, etc.? Say I wanted to find all documents with the name "James" in them. In the search box I would type "James", and it would return the results of everywhere James is found. Or suppose I wanted to find all Land Deeds where James is found, is that possible? All search engine examples that I have seen on VB Help has to do with databases, and I guess to an extent, my DVD would be the database.
I have a simple web for that has a dropdown list and a button on the form.The dropdown list is bound to a table in my database and holds three values with idents between 1 and 3 (Weekly,Monthly, Please Select).I have set my datasource to pull back item 3 (Please Select) as the first item in the dropdown list to prompt the user to select an option. Items 1 & 2 have data assigned to them and this pulls back the relevent data for these options.
Here is my problem. I need to hide my button when the page loads until the user selects item 1 or 2 and would like the button to be hidden of option 3 is selected. I have tried to complete this in my page load event and the code for the dropdown list but i cannot seem to get this to work.
If IsNumeric(DropDownList1.SelectedValue) = 3 Then btnAddAgendaTemplate.Visible = False End If
In Visual Basic 2010, when I do Build/Build [project name], sometimes the resulting exe file is put in ..in and other times it's put in ..inRelease. Why does it do this and how can I control it?
It's probably the most basic of things, but all I can find is how to launch a program, and not with the interactions I desire. Any tips as to the terms to use to search for answers, or links to topics regarding questions similar to mine, would be very appreciated. I have a wealth of info to read through, but I could use your knowledge to save myself time.Here is what I am trying to do:
Use a Button (A) to Launch a Prompt where User Selects Directory Path to an executable Program. The Selection is to be Persistent after the initial selection (saved in a settings file i assume?), and the Selected Path (or just "programname.exe") is to be Displayed in a Text Field (B). Launch Selected and Indicated Program via a Launch Button (C)
How can I search, for example ID Number, and want to highlight the listview item found in search from my first form? I'm using combobox from my second form to search.
