I have an application that I am completing that has several AutoComplete TextBoxes, but I can't get them ti work. My program is in Visual Basic 2010 with an SQL Server Express R2 database.
The database Query is:

When I run the program, nothing happens, my guess is that the problem is in the properties.
I'd like to use a component similar to the Tags autocomplete component used by Stack Overflow in my ASP.NET 2.0 application. What can I use?

I am sending some data in a Serialized Structure across a TcpClient Stream to a Client. Now, sometimes the results get through, other times however, it does not. I've noticed this is true when the data I'm sending gets rather large. The server locks up at sending it and can't continue on.I'm sending this structure:
<Serializable()> Public Structure SearchResults
Public Property Results As String
Public Property Search As Boolean
End Structure
When Results gets kind of big (say, 411,000 characters in length), the server fails to send it, I get no error, and I end up timing out completely. If I connect via localhost", I get it instantly, so I know my code works. My problem is I've sent different structures with more data (2 million characters) way faster (nearly instantaneously) across the Internet (not localhost) in less than half a second.
Private Sub SendMessage(ByVal message As Object)
Try
SyncLock m_Client.GetStream
BinFormatter = New Binary.BinaryFormatter()

I am building a game project for a school project. User gets points for completing certain tasks. I have it all coded - curious as how I should do high score table. I was thinking an Access DB, but that seems like total overkill. Does XML seem reasonable?
View 5 RepliesI am having a problem in Form_Load. When the following code executes the form pops up with out executing any further code: Me.TblAssetsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.ITP400_IP3_ADataSet.tblAssets).
I am trying to use Form_Load to populate values in a ListBox control from an Access database table.It appears the problem was in the Compile settings. It was the 'old' problem of using AnyCPU on an x64 machine. I changed the Compile setting to x86 and the problem disappeared.

View 7 RepliesSo in my window onLoad method I am pre-populating a grid with values retrieved from a database. Here is the method below for the window load:
Private Sub winMain_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
''#Load Grid
Dim dt As New DataTable
With dt
[code].....
What happens is, when I press F5 to debug, the program loads, and the grid is still empty, just as it is without a datasource. When I try to step through the code, it actually reaches down to the line that reads
Budgets = BudgetManager.Process.Budget.GetAllBudgets()
and then stepping over this line...the window loads and it doesn't go any further in the method. What the line of code above does is eventually make a execution call of some SQL to a SQLite database, and the code gets to the point at which it calls the execute method, but doesn't even make the query yet. All the objects up until that point in the code are set properly as well (found through debugging and checking locals.)Edit:Exception is this:
"Mixed mode assembly is built against version 'v2.0.50727' of the runtime and cannot be loaded in the 4.0 runtime without additional configuration information.
On my form, i've got some textboxes and some richtextboxes. I'm using the following code, to search through the text properties of each of the two types of control. see below:-
For Each ctl As Control In Me.Controls
If ctl.Text = "7777" Then
ctl.Text = "found the sevens"
End If
Next
What i'd like to do is isolate the textboxes only, is there a way to do that? I tried this but i got an error:-
For Each box As TextBox In Me.Controls
If box.Text = "7777" Then
box.Text = "Found"
End If
Next

I have some code that calls to Active Directory and gets a list of users then adds them into a ComboBox.
I would like to extend this feature by allowing the combo box to autocomplete when a user starts to type.
Ive read a few articles but they seem to be based on data coming from SQL server but none on Active Directory. Could anyone assist by advising how i could go about this?

I need a complete code of how to AutoComplete ComboBox
View 1 RepliesI have a combobox that is populated with movies with a number corresponding to where it is held in our archives ie. "451 How The Grinch Stole Christmas"What I would really like to do is have an autocomplete routine that would make it possible NOT to have autocomplete only work on the first character. As it stands, with Visual Studio's native autocomplete if my combobox is populated by:
Apple Smoothie
Banana Puree
Crayon Colors
[code]....
and I type "Pu" I will get only "Pure Energy" as an autocomplete result. I would like it so that typing "Pu" would return Pure Energy & Banana Puree.
I'm struggling to meet a demand from my supervisors.Basically there are places in our project where there is a big selection of options. The most concrete example is choosing a city in the world. The items are hundreds of thousands.Using standard winforms controls and properties, one can search through a list fast.The problem is that we're using a concatenation of city&district name for all the items. Essentially PREFIX autotomplete works but does not work as needed. The task is to filter and show items by any given string in any part of the item. Essentially a FULL TEXT search in the combobox.Does anyone have an idea about switching autocomplete sources in runtime relatively qiuckly and handling the suggest/suggestappend event?

I have a couple of texbox and combobox controls that are bound to a dataset. I can scroll this with the a bindingnavigator. But I want to have the combobox do autocomplete from the dataset. For example, if i type a "D" in the combobox bound to the 'ClientName' column of the 'ClientInfo' table,i want the comcobox to display all (or maybe the top 20) names that start with a "D". If i then type an "E" I would like the list to show all names starting with "De" and so on.
I have tried to bind the 'autocompletesource' of the combobox to the 'ClientName' column, but that did not appear to do anything.I am reasonably experienced with VB .Net, but totally new to database and data centric applications.
I Use visual Basic 8.0 and Mysql 5.0

Does anyone know if there is a way to have autocomplete use a text file for it's data source?
View 3 RepliesI have a datagridview in vb 2010 and in one of the columns I populate a combobox with items from a database. With autosuggest, I filter the list to select an item. But autosuggest only works on the beginning of an item. I would like to search in each item. For example typing 'bank', I would like to select from:
Bank of Schotland
Deutsche bank
ING bank
Rabobank
I am building a autocomplete on my textbox. Really simple and it works really fine. But I like to do the next thing. When there is a match in the list and I will click on it. then i like to have a function.
For example
Private Sub ListItems_click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
MsgBox("test")
End Sub
How can i make this sub??
I use combo boxes with the Autocomplete turned on (Source = ListItems and Mode= SuggestAndApplend). The problem is that if the user stops typing for two seconds and then continues typing, the Autocomplete starts matching only on a new characters being typed. For example, I have a list with two items: "apple" and "please". I type "ap", then pause for a couple seconds and then continue typing "ple". I want the list to match on "apple" but instead it matches on "please". I'm looking for a property or some way to set the length of time the control resets the matching. Do you know if one exists?
View 6 RepliesI have a combox that is run-time bound to a table that is run-time built and populated from a text file. I have set the combobox autocomplete mode to suggest and the source to list items, but only the 1st item will work. Ok so here's the code:
Private Sub SetStateComboBox()
'set autocomplete for combobox
state_cmbx.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend[code]....
The file is a text file with a list of the 50 states and their abbreviations in the format : stateName - abbr.Now what happens is the data is displayed correctly, but when I begin to type a letter for the autocomplete the only letter that shows anything is the "a" and it will only show the very first item in the text file.Everything else does not display with the autocomplete, but does show in the list. I have tried variations such as adding the data as items like this:
Private Sub SetStateComboBox()
'set autocomplete for combobox
state_cmbx.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend[code]....
This way does not allow any autocomplete when I begin typing but everything is in the list. I've also tried converting the table to a customautocompletestring and still the same results.The only way that I have been able to get it to work is be entering each state as an item: state_cmbx.items.add("Michigan - MI"), then it works correctly.Also the combobox dropdownstyle is set to dropdown, and I'm using visual studio 2010 ultimate and coding using VB.
