I want to pick a word in Combo box A that has specific words/phrases in Combo Box B show. But not all the words to show in the combo box B if they aren't associated with the Word picked in Combo Box A.

Combo box 2 is filled based on a selection made in combo box 1 and a listview is populated based on the selection made in combo box 2.When the LostFocus event completes in combo box 1, it hits the LostFocus event in Combo Box 2 but it shouldn't. How do I prevent this from happening or if I can't prevent it, how do I work around it? The following is the code used.

View 3 RepliesI have a form with 8 combo boxes and would like to disble certain combo boxes, depending on what was selected in another combo box. The reason is so the user will not have a blank return on a query. The first form I created like this worked great, no issues. This form only allows one combo box (Number_of_Lightheads) to disable any others. Below is the code I have for this Form. why the other combo boxes will not disable the ones that are called out in the code?

View 7 RepliesI created a data grid view from the datasources list and converted 1 of the columns into a combo box. Unfortunately, the combo box isn't acting like a proper combo box. When I start typing, the combo box does not display the characters I have entered. All it does is begin looking for the entry that matches what I am typing.
This is no good for my purposes, the user needs to be able to see what they have typed. Is this how it works when in a grid? I have tried playing with a lot of the column options but nothing makes it work correctly.
I have a DataGridView on a form that is being populated from a SQL table dataset by giving criteria from a previous form. I have 6 columns in the dataset, of which the last column should be combo box column containing items "Done" and "Pending".
How do I make this bound column to a combo box column and display the value as well as the alternate item too in the combo box?
Below is the code to create a single Editable ComboBox column in a DataGridView on a form. I believe I have follwed the instructions to allow the user to input new values other than those in the list, however if you create a new project and add a button and a DataGridView control onto the form, then copy and paste this code and run the program, you will find that you cannot type any character in the edit box other then characters that exist in the list and only 1 character will be displayed at a time. I have set the Autocomplete value to 'False' and setting it to 'True' at least allows me to type more than 1 character but still not any strings that don't exist in the list.You can even remark out or not use the entire Call Validating sub routine to see the issue of not being able to type in the cell.

View 4 RepliesI have an unbound datagridview control whose first column is a combo box This contains a list of part numbers.I am having some problems with the datagridview automtically adding a new row when the combo box item is selected.If I select an entry from the data by typing in part number in full in the first row and pressing tab or enter then I get a new row created.

I am building a simple GUI to view data within a database. I am getting stuck when it comes to filtering data. I have followed Beth Massi's video entitled How Do I: Filter data on the client?
However my datagridview will not filter, it simply moves the highlighted cell down to the location of the item selected in the combo box. The items in the combo box are also repeated as opposed to grouped by what they they are called, for instance I have a column called region and every cell contains the text "West" and the combo box just shows a list of all the cells as opposed to just one.I followed the video several times and every time this happens. Even with a new project. Could it be because my data isnt a table but a query of several tables? I can filter on this data in excel and access easily.
