Cannot Distinguish If DataGridView Is Enabled Or Disabled
Sep 7, 2010
Put a Datagridview on a form, fill it with data. dgv1.enabled = True and dgv1.enabled = False are almost the same look to the eye unlike other controls (textbox,combo, listview, etc ...) where there back color changed to light grey and you can distinguish if that control is enabled or disabled but not for Datagridview.
i want to make only Library Reports Menu enabled if i login as user i.e if i seelct login as user then only menu item which user can access should be Library Reports and Student Details Menu enabled Property should be Flase
I'm trying to allow scrolling in a Multiline-TextBox even if the TextBox is set to
textbox.Enabled = False
This is not possible, as the Scrollbar is disabled with the Enabled-Command, too.The default solution here is to set
textbox.ReadOnly = True textbox.Enabled = True
but this doesn't really do the trick for me. With ReadOnly I can still select the text of a TextBox as well as place the cursor inside of it. But as I have normal (non Multiline-TextBoxes) and other controls on the same form I don't want that to happen. I want to have exactly the same behavior as all the other disabled TextBoxes.
For everything else, like mimic the color of a disabled textbox and so on, there is a legitimate workaround with the ReadOnly-Property, but I coudn't find any for selecting text and placing the cursor.
UPDATE:I tried to use WIN32 API but it didn't work as expected:
Imports System.Windows.Forms Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices Public Class TestTextBox
I'm trying to display the network adapters on the computer running this application. For that I want to be able to display all network adapters, no matter which status they have. Then I want to be able to enable and disable the adapters by pushing a button.
I've tried using System.Net.NetworkInformation, but it seems as though it only contains the one that's active.
I am making a configuration screen so that an administrator can easily determine what controls on a form are enabled according to a combo selection.
I have created a table (SQL2008 DB) to store the settings and need ideas how I can best implement.
The session form will start up normal with only a few controls enabled to start, but then when the user selects a "session type" from a drop down combo then the form will be configured for that type. Because there may be several different combinations, and I do want to offer the user the ability to add and configure more types as needed I feel like this may be the best method instead of hard coding.
Table Structure
SessionType varchar(25) not null PK ControlSwitch varchar(50) Not Null
(Edit: I may add an additional DB field so that I can specify the default value of a control also)
Now what I thought I would do on the config form is have a series of combo boxes and the label represent each control with a value of True or False, then when saved it builds a string like example 1,1,0,1,0,1,1,1 or True, True, False etc.
The string would represent ctrl1=on, ctrl2=on,ctrl3=off,ctrl4=on,ctrl5=off,ctrl6=on,ctrl7=on,ctrl8=on and so on.
can i use an inverse notation in the databindings to enabled or disabled one checkbox?I have a form that has several controls binded, and if i have true in one field in the database i need to check checkbox and disabled it.Something like:
I'm using visual basic 2005 express edition I am having trouble with comboboxes and a button I want the button to be disabled "button1.enabled = false" when the program starts Then when the user selects a listing in all the comboboxes have the button become enabled "button1.enabled = true"
Can the "Disk Cleanup" operation on Windows be disabled / enabled with a registry setting using VB.Net?I am using Windows 7 32 bit ultimate edition. but as a temporary measure I do not wish to do so.
I have a datagridview binded with a bindingsource with all the options of editing,saving,deleting enabled.But i am unable to understand the problem that is why the data from my datagridview is not getting saved.This is the code which I am using
Private Sub frmDvdMovieData_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'Library.category' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.CategoryTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Library.category)
I have created an Unbound DataGridView. It has has 4 Columns Name, Last Name, Picture, CheckBox. I would like to do change the checkbox's enabled state true or false (editable or not) at the time I add the row
Not its checked state :) and would also like to change image that is placed in the Image column cell during the add row.
As i'm learning more and more about developing ive just got my head around creating classes and modules, i started wondering about something to do with configuration of applications where deployment is in a more diverse environment say in a company where different branches dont need access to all parts of a program, so i thought id throw the question out there in a basic sense and get some feedback. so i can go off and do some more reading and learning.
So the scenario in my head is like this.
So we have for arguments sake FrmConfig which is the master configuration form, then we have FrmMain which is the root menu our application general user interfaces with. So here based on what options are checked as enabled in FrmConfig effects what controls (like buttons/menu options) are enabled in FrmMain.
is it true that if the AllowEdit property is set to false, any DataGridViewComboBoxColumn that my DataGridView has will be in a "disabled state" (will not allow the user to change the value of the DataGridViewComboBoxColumn) AND there is no way i can make it in an "enabled state" unless i switch the AllowEdit to true?
I have a barcode scanner connected to a PC that working with a c# program.now i want to distinguish between the scanner and the keyboard which one is sending data to my program.
somebody said this to me in another topic(but i can't do this yet): basically you can configure the scanner to send some characters that basically tell the computer "hi, it's me". When you see those characters in your input stream, you know the information is coming from the barcode scanner, not from something the user typed on the keyboard. Did you check the manual that came with your barcode scanner? It should have more information about this.
I want my to create an explorer like application. What control should i use to show the contents of a directory.I tried listview and listbox. Unfortunately i was unable to add items in a listview using the function getdirectories("D:")I managed to do so with listbox control. But how can i distinguish whether the selected entry is a file or a directory. Code snippet is given below :
Private Sub ListBox1_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.DoubleClick <strong>sel = ListBox1.SelectedItem</strong> ListBox1.Items.Clear()
[code]....
I want that if thesel is file, then it'll be open in its default application,i.e. using system.process.start(sel.filetype).Else if sel is a directory then the directory will open.
How do I distinguish copying data and a pointer when using a class?E.g. public class myparams var1 as integervar2 as intergerv3 as stringend classmyvar as new myparamsmyvar.var1=1myvar.var2=2myvar.v3 ="hh"othervar as new myparams
I want to copy all of myvar data into othervar in one go.. without doing othervar.var1=myvar.var1 etcusing othervar=myvar" Looks like its just copying the pointer of myvar into othervar? Can I copy all the class data in one go? VB2008 user
I'm using GetDriveType function to determine the drive type.the function works fine, but not with external HDD it returns 3 or "fixed" which confuses me!! is there any way to distinguish between internal (local) fixed HDD and external (USB) HDD?
The scenario is I would like to be able reference two similar 3rd party assemblies (e.g. assem1 and assem2) which both define a type with the same fully qualified name (e.g. Example.MyType). Is there any way to distinguish between these and refernce them seperately? I believe the answer is no but confirmation or correction would be handy. Edit: Answered for C# 2.0 and higher below but need an answer in VB.Net 1.1
title is a bit vague. Is there any way I can tell if it's the user or the code that's altered a combobox? I want certain things to happen when a combobox is updated, but I don't want them to happen when the code is altering the combobox at runtime, only when the user selects something out of them. Unfortunately, if I use the 'Selectedindexchanged' option that triggers when I change the contents in code too. I've tried disabled the combobox while I update it, but that doesn't seem to work. Any way to detect user input only? My combobox is drop-down only by the way, so it's only if they select an option - they can't type anything.
When inheriting class or control e.g. ListView, TreeView, etc..., what is the best way to distinguish between built-in methods/property/events and mine?Currently, i start my methods/property/events with "aa" in order to make them at the top of auto complete list.
how would you identify the shape of text like inside a scanned document containing text and graphics?In a perfect world,users would never enter data in the wrong form,files they choose to open would always exist and code would never have bugs.[URL]

My application is built to scan MS Access database in vb.net 2005. MS Access DB is opening when Access Run-Time (But no Full version of MS Access) is installed in the system as well. But showing error while scanning through our Tool.Need only Full version of MS Access.To Identify, whether the required application (like here we need MS Access Full version) is installed or not at the time of installing our Tool(Through MSI).Is it possible to identify MS Access Full version with Run-Time while installing the Tool?
In my keydown event handler, when Keys.Numpad4 is pressed with Shift, I get the same keycode code as for Keys.Right. Is this by design? How can I distinguish between the two?
If I have two buttons, one to start a song being played and one to stop it. The start button has enabled set to true and the stop button is enabled to false. What I want to happen is the stop button to only become active when the start button is pressed. I was thinking of putting stopMusicButton.enabled(True) within the start method, but this doesnt seem to work
I have a combo box with four option and two textboxes (on forms load the first textbox is enabled and the second is not). When I click on a spesific option from the combo box I want to make the second textbox enabled.
