Combobox - .net Cascading ComboBoxes Connected To DataSet From Access - Changing Units And Decimal To Fractions?
Oct 2, 2011
I have a DataSet with a DataTable that has several numeric columns of Data. The numeric data is composed of distances given in U.S. Standard units. I currently have my ComboBoxes set up and working, but I need to expand on what I currently have in two ways.I need to be able to convert the Decimal numbers in my data column being displayed to Fractions, is there a way to do this and maintain databinding? In this case its the Display Member of the data source...I need to be able to display my drop down options in different sets of units... I've written Unit Conversion classes to help take care of this, but I don't know if I can somehow do this as well and maintain databinding? I'd like to convert the units on the display members as well...
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectionChangeCommitted
Select Case ComboBox1.SelectedItem
[code]....
What is the best approach for using ComboBoxes when dealing with issues such as displaying fractions and units...

As a part time CAD drafter I commonly have to do scale conversions from many different scales.I am writing a scale converter that will allow me to enter the source scale (eg. 1/4" = 1'). Then it will provide an area to enter another number, like 3/4", and then produce that number in inches. In the case of 3/4" it would equal 36" or 3 feet. For now it would be fine if only gave me the answer in inches.How would I handle all the necessary fractions? Would I have to set up a bit of code that would convert the fractions to decimal?

I have two comboboxes say
DDL 1 : Artist
DDL 2: Albums
And a Gridview containing (album name, artist name, no.of tracks, year, etc), What I want to achieve is: when an option(artist1) in DDL1 is chosen, then the albums related to DDL1 needs to display in DDL2 and also it must update the appropriate values in the gridview (artistname, albums(album name -no of songs, year)etc... based on the selection made (language: Asp.net(VB)-Sql server ).

how you populate cascading comboboxes? I have one combobox on one form, from which I'm trying to populate another combobox on another form. The first combobox contains Locations while the second combobox contains offices for whichever location is selected in the first combobox. I would like it to work as follows: user clicks on first combobox to select a location, and then the second combobox lists all the offices for that location.As of right now, the second combobox is just displaying the first office that is in the first record for the respective database table it is pulling from.

How I can populate a combobox (combobox2) based on the selection made from another combobox (combobox1)? They are on different forms. Combobox1 lists locations, while combobox2 lists offices for each location. I would like it to work so that when the user clicks on combobox1 and makes a selection, the 2nd form loads with combobox2 showing all the offices for the selected location.

1. A dataset contaning all the tables, views and stored procedures from a db in the Data Sources
2. A stored procedure that makes a query using a parameter
3. 2 comboboxes with their DataSources defined
The first combobox gets populated with a stored procedure (with no params, through the Combobox task). When the user selects an item from this combobox this should trigger an event that populates the second combobox with the second stored procedure that requires a parameter.
Since the Dataset is already add to the Data Sources and contains all the procedures I need, I don't wanna to create more datasets or calls to the data base, however I don't know how to set the query using the procedure I already have passing the parameter.

I have the EXACT same code on another form and it works great, on this form though it is giving me this when loading that is happening when trying to populate the cboItemCode and cboLinePart combo boxes based on what is selected in cboLine (which will be the initial load value)[code]It is happening, I guess on that CInt( in the sql, but why?I don't understand why it is considering cboLine.Selected value as a "DataTypeRow" when it is just looking at the value member? If I remove the CInt() for the cboLine.SelectedValue it will give another error saying "Operator '&' is not a defined for "SELECT LinePartID, LinePartName," and type 'DataRowView'.[code]

On my program I am trying to make a ToolStripStatusLabel's text change to "connected" if connected to a network and if not connected to a network change the text to " Not Connected" then I don't know how to display a image if connected to a network or not connected. So if the computer is connected to a network I have a image that I would like to be displayed next to the ToolStripStatusLabel. And if not connected to a network, can the program display a different image? I tried this:
My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable=True(ToolStripStatusLabel2.Text "Connected")
My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable=False(ToolStripStatusLabel2.Text "Not Connected")

I am trying to have cascading comboboxes within a datagridview.I have it partially working. dataset1 has 2 tables, with a parent-child relation built inDatagridview1 contains:column 1: combobox, bound to bindingsource 1 which is bound to dataset1column 2: combobox, bound to bindingsource 2 which is bound to bindingsource 1when column 1 is selected, column 2 choices are limited to those related to column 1however, if column 2 is chosen in a row that previously had data, and was loaded with the form, then its choices stay the same as the last row where column 1 was physically selected before column 2.I seem to need to refresh the binding source somehow to emulate how it works if I was to go into column 1 and make a selection by hand.H

I have two combobox in a form: Cb1 and Cb2
When I load the form, Cb1 and Cb2 are connected to a bindingsource.
When I change Cb1, the code (below) changes Cb2 to show only the items according to Cb1
This is working fine.
The problem is when I change Cb1 , change Cb2 and click the save button..... Cb2 seems to be 'lost'...

I have a form that has three comboboxes in it, cbxStudy, cbxMethod, & cbxAnalyte. When I call the form I load a data table and use that table to fill the comboboxes. I want to assign a value to cbxStudy, then fill cbxMethod by filtering the data table using the value in cbxStudy, then fill cbxAnalyte by filtering the data table using the values in cbxStudy and cbxMethod.
This code keeps failing when the forms New constructor is called, but once the form is loaded the code works great. I indicated below where the code is failing. It's failing because Me.cbxStudy.SelectedValue is = {System.Data.DataRowView} when the constructor is called even though I set the SelectedValue myself.

I am attempting to take the decimal places of a given input, round it so there are only two decimal places, then change it to a whole number. So far I have been able to remove the integer part of the number, leaving only the decimal, but the other procedures are eluding me. Here's what I have so far: (VB 2008)
Private Function DecimalNumber(ByVal number As Double) As Double
Dim Input As Double
Dim SubtractNumber As Decimal
[Code]....
That code returns the decimal part of the input just fine, and I thought maybe multiplying it by 10 would work....but obviously you run into problems when there is more than one decimal place.

I want to choose a value dynamically from comboBox depending of the values selected previously in two comboBoxes.the code that loads the comboBoxes:
Private Sub LightClassComboBox_DropDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AreaClasificationComboBox.DropDown

The problem is that in the last Sub in the If sentence gives an error of: Null Reference Exception, because the compiler thinks that in that event the data are not loaded, although the data are loaded when loadcomboBoxes sub is executed.

I was just wondering if you could view the items on a connected Zune device (such as the Zune HD or any of the others. (4GB, etc.))Also, possibly listen to the songs / watch the videos on it with the Windows Media Player codec in the program, and view the pictures in a PictureBox? Is this possible at all? Can I at least view the items? Or is this strictly forbidden?

i am wondering if it is possible to get the source code for the following:
1. use vb.net code to set on/off primary key when connected to Access database
2. update a particular data.
for e.g: hostname: AES-19 *use source code to check data in Microsoft Access database
if hostname is new, insert into Access. if hostname already exist, update into Access
*so that i will not have duplicate data in Access.
