I'm using Visual Studio 2010 / VB / dot net 4.0, and I have a drop-down menu in my left column that switches resource languages for the end user. It reads like this:
--------English ------- <<- Engish is always the default top language option French | Spanish |
Does anyone know if it is possible to make a drop down list control (when clicked) list its contents above the item, rather than below? Effectively, I need a drop up list rather than a drop down list...
Is it possible to reorder the elements of a drop down list (combobox) via drag and drop?For example, when the list is dropped down, I want the user to be able to drag the items up or down to reorder them. I tried this (and some google searching) but I'm wondering if its just not possible:
Private Sub cmbClassLists_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles cmbClassLists.MouseDown If cmbClassLists.DroppedDown And Not cmbClassLists.SelectedIndex = -1 Then
I am a newbie of using a vb.net. And I am eager to know everything around. I have a problem that seems hard to find for. I would like to retrieve data from database using drop down list, and select only the fields that i want to retrieve from it.
DesignationTable From my table i like to display only two in my drop down list
I am trying to compare a calculated date with a value in a dropdown list. The value is a date.toString.This is what I have so far:
Dim sched = scheduleDateVal.toString("d" If Holidays.Items.Contains(New ListItem(sched.ToString("d"))) Then ScheduleDate.Text = scheduleDateVal.AddDays(1).toString("d") End If
Holidays is a dropdown list bound to a database so that I can add a day to a scheduledate if it happens to fall on a holiday. This works if I add a string value to sched rather than converting scheduledateval to a string.
I'm creating a simulation programe. In one sheet I have a group of cells (AngleConf) that have a drop down list. I would like to make some operations when I change the value of one of these cells. It always works when I insert the new value manually. But it doesn't always works when I change it by selecting the value from the list. I supose that that happens because of some option that I change while I'm working but I can't find out witch one exactly.The code that I think that its implicated:
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If InRange(Target, Range("AngleConf")) Then Call resistance 'Actualiser le r�sultat mecanique
I'm trying to find a dropdown-style list for images I can use in a program of mine. It's fairly simple, just needs to display a few images in a grid with tooltips for each one, and I need to be able to get whichever one was last picked. For example,[URL] without the tab bar in it. Unfortunately my monetary budget is zero which means I can't purchase any controls?
This is turn populates my dropdownlist, when a user selects a value, it is then populated to the remaining textboxes on the remaining forms with a session call...
Through this session it populates the one value, is it possible to display the selected value but also include all other dropdownlist items in case they want to change thier selection?
I cannot get the value from the drop down list and I not sure what's wrong with the declaration and the code.
Dim selectedIntake As String = intakeDropDownList.SelectedItem.Text() Dim selectedSupervisor As String = supervisorDropDownList.SelectedItem.Text() .supervisor_ID = selectedSupervisor(0), _
[Code]....
This is the error message I get :
The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK_student_Details_lecturer_Details". The conflict occurred in database "SKTM-AAS", table "dbo.lecturer_Details", column 'supervisor_ID'. The statement has been terminated.
i have four price values in a drop down list and i need to code these values and add them to values from a checklist object i am doing very simple coding ?
Is using Public Property the best way to achieve the following.From a drop down combobox, a list of options are available. Each option in the combobox has a number of public properties that need to be associated with it.When a option is selected, the user will then have two buttons that each call a different sub, the appropriate options are passed to the sub.Each option will always have the same properties required to be passed.So I'm looking at something like this.
Public Class Parameters Public Property server As String Public Property replica As String Public Propery path As String End Class

I have created a drop-down list box that holds 8 numbers representing a month span (3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25 months). In order to prevent users from typing just anything into the text box above the combo box, I changed it to a drop-down listbox. The other requirement that I was hoping to implement was for the user to be able to type a number, after which the selection would jump to the appropriate item (i.e. the user types in '1', and the selection jumps to 12). This partially works. It will jump to 12, for example, but immediately after the user types the '1', the Selected Index event changes. The user cannot scroll down or up after typing in a number.
the following code allows me to drag and drop the data, so i can reorder the list box. However, is there are way of seeing the line across the list box where it will be moved to?
I have multiple drop down lists on a page. They all contain list of countries. So in the background I am getting countries from database and caching them. I would like to populate those drop down lists from another thread. I am also using AJAX controls so I wanted that it all happens at the same time. And also after a user selects a country I want that towns from that country show to the user, and I want that getting towns happens also in another thread so that user can fill other controls while the list is not yet loaded.
I have read somewhere that I should give Page as a parameter to that thread and then find that drop down lists and populate them. But that is not working.
Here is a function that is called when another thread starts:
protected void GetCountries(object o) { if (Session["Countries"] == null) {
So I have an excel app with a drop down list and it contains many values. Is there a way I can just search through that drop down list in vb.net? I can't seem to find where these values that populate the drop down list even come from So I thought just searching through it is easier?
How can i set the tool combobox when i write any thing the drop down list goes down and data begins to appear?as Google when you want to search for something it begins to suggest words for you. is it a special tool?
I have to set a drop-down list with multi-select checkboxes. It seems to be a combination of combobox and list capacities (at least as I know them in VB6), so what's the best controller for these purposes in VS2008?
what is the Windows Form version of a Drop Down List? I would think a Combo Box, but that only seems to have a Text for the Items, not Text/Value (with Value being my primary key for the table I'm populating it from).
Which removes the selected item in ddl1 from the second dropdown but if I keep changing the ddl1 item then ddl2 won't have any items left in it.
Is there a way to re-add the previously deleted items in the Update_dlls function without re-databinding because if I re-databind I lose the selected item in the ddl?
Im doing the same thing as him but in vb express 2008 what i have is a checklist box of 10 toppings, all of which can be selected, (no max or min) to put on a pizza, and i have 3 radio buttons grouped together for pizza size (S, M, L) i cant figure out how to give them vaules in which(for sake of demonstration) s=$5 m=$7 l=$9 and each topping is $0.25 then make them add up to an order total in a msg box or something like that
I have an internal application that I needs to have a drop down list for two date type elements: Month and Year.These values are not in a database or other repository of information.I know I could just setup a list with the values I need by adding them to a dictionary like object (I need to correlate the Month to the numerical representation, January => 01):
var months = new Dictionary<String,String>(); months.Add("01", "January"); ...
The drop down list for the year will be a bit easier as I can just choose a starting year and iterate up to the current or current+1 year in a generic list.Is there a better way to handle these data elements? Something built in, or a good design pattern that I should be implementing?
I need to select a drop down list on a web page and select a day of any date...doesn't matter.... Can't figure it out. Here is my code for the button so far and it doesn't work
