Convert A Textbox Into A Dropdownbox?
Oct 30, 2010
I've got a stupid question (i think) I need to convert a textbox into a dropdownbox, end let it respond to the text the user is filling in.Here's the From as it looks and works now:
What i want is this:As the user starts typing a name in textbox Naam (searchbox) which needs to become a dropdownbox, it should drop down and show all the matching data in data row Naam (my second row in the data table), so that the user can then select one of them and all of it's corresponding data is shown.
So far i have been able to convert it into a dropdownbox, but then it only searches for Naam, but does not display the rest of the data.For example:I have the data of 1 client on screen, his ID is 4, then i use the dropdownbox to search for another client, it finds the other client, but it displays only Naam and not the corresponding ID and other data.

This is a WinForms Application in VB. In my application I am trying to make it easier for the user to pick out items in a list quickly based on the items text color.. So I am trying to assign the color to each item using a select case statement as below... The problem is that I am getting an error saying "Public member 'Attributes' on type 'String' not found." VB flags the lines with the Attribute.Add param with this error.. Here is the code that I currently have...
For Each u In _units
_counter += 1
u_lookupNumber_box.Items.Add((Convert.ToString(u.UnitId)) + " - " + (Convert.ToString(u.perMonthCost)))
[Code].....
I did notice that when I did the .attributes part when I hit "." and typed "att" it did not appear in the intelisense box in vb.. Which makes me think I need to assign the name "attributes" somehow to the dropdownbox first.. It should be noted that u_lookupNumber_box is the name of the drop down box on my form..

I have a VB2005 winforms application that will loads city data from my database table. This is to ensure that the user enters the correct city spelling, in order to receive an accurate quote. Currently, there are about 150K cities that are being loaded to the dropdown listbox on page load. It takes about 30-40 seconds for that page to load. My initial thought was to allow the user to select the state first. Then load the city values. But the user has the option of going back and requesting a quote for a different city / state.

I have a form where a number of textboxes are programmatically created within a flowLayoutPanel and named by adding together 2 strings.
With the click of another button i hope to have all the values entered into these text boxes stored in a text file. However, i cant seem to find a way to add strings together to allow me to retrieve the values entered within the text boxes created.
Below is the code i have so far: BTW FLP is my flow layout panel and c is my calculated nmber of textboxes that are created.
Private Sub createTB(ByVal c As Integer)
Dim x1 As Integer = 1
Dim y As Integer = 2

I have a textbox aka TXT_Weighting in which I place a value of %.
If I put in a number 0 < number < 100, it works.
However, If I put in 100, I get this error: "error converting Data Type numeric to decimal"
The Database Field has the DataType of decimal(10,2).
I have tried converting it to decimal, string, int, float in the application, but once it saves, gives the same error.
I know it is because of the database field having the type as decimal. But I cant stop the entire application, just so I can change the data type of the field.
How do I save it without getting this error? How do I control it from the application?

string which is obtained from a webservice that I would like to display in a textbox. The problem is the existing string is in HTML format so when I place it in the textbox it still has all the <Tags> etc. Is there a way to parse this text or would I be best to use the webbrowser tool? (I want to stick
with a textbox if I can)

How would I code a TryParse to get the input from customer from a textbox named Strands and convert it to a number (this number will always be a whole complete number, cannot be 5.6 or 4 1/2 or whatever) then have that Strand number be muliplied by the selected item in my listbox1. This listbox has an access database bound to it with 2 columns Size and Area, the Size equals the Area and I set the Value to the Area column but set the Size to show up in the list box. and the Strands textbox has to muliply by the Size picked, but by the Area # not the Size #. And the results of that multiplication showing up in another textbox named total.

See where my vb.net equivalent of a working c# assignment statement is not working?
bytes(i / 2) = Convert.ToByte(hex.Substring(i, 1), 16)
Here's the c# followed by the vb.net function.
private byte[] StringToByteArray(String hex)
{
int NumberChars = hex.Length;
byte[] bytes = new byte[NumberChars / 2];
[CODE]...
And the vb.net that is throwing the error within the for loop
Private Function StringToByteArray(ByVal hex As String) As Byte()
Dim NumberChars As Int16 = CShort(hex.Length)

Is it possible to have a Textbox on a form that when the user inputs data, ( during Runtime )that data remains in the Textbox for good and the Textbox then becomes read only ? Is it also possible to make it so that the CD with the programme on, is in the PC when the programme is being used. Perhaps writing the Textbox data back onto the CD ?
