I have a datagridview with a datatable in a dataset as a datasource. When i add a new row in the datagridview it is automaticaly added to the to the underliyng datatable (its datasource) . However it will only be addad after i click another datagridviewrow. I would like that update to be just after i added the row or after i edit one of its cells and not only after i click a different row.
View 8 RepliesI simply cannot understand or see when a DGV's DataSource (a DataTable in my case) get's updated when a new row has been added to the DGV by the user. I have looked at row counts in the DataTable at every possible event and cannot "get" the correct number of rows (which I ultimately need to "get" the GetChanges(DataRowState.Added) of the DataTable.So, here's what I've done.1. The DGV is populated on the FormLoad event. It includes a ComboBoxColumn which has it's own datasource. All fine.Now, let's say initially there is 1 single row in the DGV. There is also and "empty" row at the bottom of the DGV, all cell values are empty.if the user Clicks the ComboBoxCol and chooses an item, then this actually creates a NEW friggin' row, RIGHT?!No. Not exactly. At least NOT in the DataTable (The DGV's datasource).I attempted to "check". Looked at the editingComboBox_SelectionChangeCommitted event:
Private Sub editingComboBox_SelectionChangeCommitted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles editingComboBox.SelectionChangeCommitted
Dim rct As Integer = ImprovementsEntity.improvementTable.Rows.Count
[code]....
I have this
[Code]...
which is supposed to get all the data from my table and set it as the datasource of a DataGridView. You can see where I put in two msgbox's to view how many columns are in the DGV before and after the "update". The first count gives me 22, which is the correct number. After the .DataSource and .DataMember lines are ran, the count jumps to 41 and I have no clue why. All I want to do is clear a dataset, fill it with the new data and set it as the data source of a datagridview. It appears the info is being saved to the table correctly too.
I have a DataGridView to which I've set a list of objects to the DataSource. (I'm in VS 2005 using VB.) I created the DataGridView by creating a Data Source of type AssetIdentifier and dragging that Data Source onto my form. I want to update the DataGridView when the selection in either a combo box or another DataGridView changes. (Below I'm considering a click in another DataGridView.)
The following works:
Public Class dlgShowAssets
' class member variable
Private assetIdList As List(Of AssetIdentifier)
' pertinent subs and functions
Private Sub RefreshAssetIdentifierDataGridView()
[Code] .....
In this case, I always knew that assetIdList would have at least one element. I'd update the list, and reset the data source of the DataGridView to that list, and all was well. When I applied this to another situation, for which I couldn't guarantee that the list would have at least one element, things would work fine as long as I had at least one element in the list, but if the list became empty, the DataGridView threw System.IndexOutOfRangeException a number of times.
The rows in the DataGridView would not go away if I went from a non-zero number of elements to zero. I tried a workaround, which was to remove all of the elements, add one "dummy" element, and then re-bind the list to the control and it still didn't work. Also, following all of those exceptions, I'd get other similar exceptions when I hovered over the cells in the DataGridView. Some of the members of AssetIdentifier were "Nothing" but I fixed that in the constructor, and the exceptions still occur.
I have several problems with rows in a DataGridView. Background information: The DataGridView (DataGridViewCalib) is in one TabPage of a TabControl, some columns of the DataGridView are automatically DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn as the DataSource have some colums which are Boolean. This is a Windows Form written in VB.Net with Visual Studio 2008. The user loads an input data file.
The problems:
1) At first arrival in the TabPage, ShowDataGridViewCalib (code below) is called. All rows are then shown in the DataGridView, despite the code saying that some rows should not be visible. Breakpoints in the code show that the code do arrive at the Rows.Visible = False events. Despite all rows beeing shown a Watch in the debugger shows that:

There are two alternative ways of handling the rows in the code. The first attempt (commented away here) is probably the "nicest".
I am building an app that has one access database. In that database, there is one table that users will access.
In VB2008, I used the Add A New Data Source selection to add the database and table to the application. I have successfuly bound the table/records/fields to the needed text boxes on a form.
This app will have one table to start. End users can create new tables using the structure of the first.
At design time, only one table was in the db. Now a user adds a new table. I have a module that lets the user choose which table to work with and that name is stored to a global variable.
Once the new table is selected, I want to launch the edit window.
Since the new table [call it table2] did not exist at design time, what is the best way to tell the data binding that I want to use table2?
Remember - the operation of adding a new data binding source using the designer automatically adds hundreds of lines of code in the initialization sections of the code.
My application must display some data in Datagridview (status of COM ports communication) and i Used .mdb databases before for faster search and Datagridview update. How i understand Datagridview is importing data from DataTable and data in DataTable is imported from .mdb file, so i decided to make shortcut - stop to using .mdb file (data must be erased every time application start and it is useless make .mdb file and erase it every time, becouse it is increasing even when drop is used) and using only DataTable..
I want to row in Datagridview change it color to red when it's Collumn(6).text countains %error% string..
When Error in COM port is starting, i can fast find row in DataTable for that port and write information that Error accured for that port and DataGridview automatically updates:
Dim RRow as () DataRow
RRow = ds.Select("Port = 'COM3')
RRow(0).Item(6) = "Error Opening COM3"
If I bind an BindingList(Of FooBar) to the datasource of my datagrid the controls gets updated whenever I add an item to this BindingList.[code]...
View 2 RepliesI have a combobox where the SelectedValue on the combo is bound to a property on a business object.Everything works fine, but the property that's bound to the SelectedValue on the combo only gets updated when the focus leaves the control. I understand that the property doesn't get updated until the control is validated (loses focus), but I need it to update the datasource as soon as the dropdown is closed.I know I could probably leave focus from the control on the DropDownClosed event but I'd prefer something a little less kludgy.What's the best way to immediately update my datasource when the dropdown is closed?
View 2 RepliesThe idea with this form is to add the futures which is calculated when the button is pushed but I need the list to update every time and show the values each time to which the previous value is added to the new calculation, e.g. of what it should look like in listbox:
Year 1: $1,290.93
Year 2: $2,724.32
Year 3: $4,350.76
etc....
I have been working on this a while and I am at a standstill, I was given a function to clear the form everytime it calculates but I don't know how to implement it, I am new to VB. Here is what I have so far:
Public Class frmFutureValue
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click

In a windows forms project, I have several combo boxes. The first combo box contains a list of objects. Those objects then have several lists which are used as the datasource's for the successive combo boxes, depending on which item is chosen in the first.

When I try to change the datasource of my DataGridView, I am loosing the order of the columns and their type(checkboxes,comboboxes) that i specified on designtime! It's like changing the datasource is generating again the datagridview, why ? and How can I change the datasource without losing these information ? on form load i do something like
Private Sub frmGrid_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim Path as string
[Code].....
I have created a Datagridview by dropping in from the Datasource. After I changed one column to be a Checkboxcolumn but it does not represent the values. In the table (smallint) I have 0s and -1s but it doesnt matter what I enter as True and False Value in the column it just shows that the box is checked.
View 5 RepliesI have a DataGridView and in it a CheckBoxColumn, when I click a cell of that column the check box gets checked.I do it like this:
dgvMessages.CurrentRow.DataBoundItem("have_read") = 1
but the change does not get committed to the DataSource (or at least not immediately), so when I search through it I get wrong results.
I can't call AcceptChanges as that will refresh the grid and cause unwanted side effects... What can I do about this? Is there such a thing as an 'AutoCommit' property on a DataGridView?
my question is, is there a way to filter records in the dataset and use that records to fill in the datagridview? for example, a datatable (with 3 columns: ID, StudentName, Gender) is filled with list of students. i have two datagrids in the form namely DatagridView1 and Datagridview2. DatagridView1 is where the the list of student where Gender is equal to M and DatagridView2 is where the the list of student where Gender is equal to F.in my current solution, i am using a loop.
[code]...
is there a way without using a loop?
I have an app that has a DataGridView with a few buttons. My intent is to have the DataGridView populate with the data associated with the button clicked. So if you click the States button it'll fill the DataGridView with the DataSet I have created with a link to a SQL table with a list of States.

View 4 RepliesI'm working on VB .NET 2008.
Target: Bind dynamic datasource in a cell of a Windows.Forms.DataGridView depending on the selection in previous column. The grid must have 7 columns. If the selection on comboboxcolumn 2 or 4 is done, the datasource of comboboxcolumns 3 and 5 mus change using a query with previous selection as parameter.
In a first try to develop this functionality i've tried to use Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView control. I've created a customized celltemplate with a combobox in order to have different datasource for each cell on the same column. All worked fine but seems to be some kind of bug in RadGridView, because when the combobox is presenting the list, after selection the list continued showing, doesn't dissapears as expected.
Ok, after several days of fight with RadGridView, I give up, and I tried to use same strategy but using Windows.Forms.DataGridView. I've created two classes one inherited from DataGridViewComboboxCell and other from ComboBoxColumn, in order to insert my own combbox or have the chance to have access directly to the combobox values. But the combobox showed is the default combobox not my own combobox.
how can I create a custom comboboxcell but using my own combo, and having access from outside to this combo?
public Enum ClaimStatus
Ongoing = 0
Completed = 1
[Code]....
With code above, how do I assign the value to the combobox while retrieving data from the table so that it point to the corresponding combobox item. For example, if the value of status_ID is 1 then the combobox should show "completed" in the datagridview.
Posted this over at WinForms forum, just not much activity and thought I might get a quick response here....Not real certain if I am implementing this correctly, but I am attempting to programatically modify cell values in a DataGridView control with an underlying DataTable as it's DataSource.

I have a datagridview with 3 columns.
Now I need to fill the datagridview's datasource with 3 arrays.
Example:
(column1) Username- Joe - Mark - Thomas
(column2) Password - Joe - Mark - Thomas
(column3) Activiated - Yes - No - Yes
Then after i split what should I do? Should I add 3 arraylists in a class or should I use structure and how?
To add Row programmatically,
Connected Datagridview with datatable
I like to add Blank Row in the datagridview, So
On the Last Cell, CellLeave Event
Datatable1.Rows.Add()
It is adding a row in the dataTable, but adding two rows in the datagridview, why...?
I'm trying to use a datagridview as the datasource for my mail merge, but I'm having trouble getting all the data to output to the word doc. I've based the below code on the following tutorial:
[Code]...
This is my first time really working with DataGridViews. And for my own learning, I am trying to create a "System Information" program. I understand you can easily do simple stuff such as:
DataGridView1.Rows.Item(0).Cells(0).Value = "OS Name"
DataGridView1.Rows.Item(0).Cells(1).Value = My.Computer.Info.OSFullName
In a windows form I do have a datagridview. When a user pushes the button, the underlying datasource of the datagridview (a dataview) changes and the new content with new columns is shown. This works fine, only problem is that the header-height differs and that the datagridview does not properly display the smaller headers until I click into the first datarow of the datagridview. Simply using the .refresh()-method of the datagridview after assigning the new datasource does not seem to work.
Here is a little code-snippet showing how I assign a new datasource to the datagridview.
Dim view As DataView = myDataTable.DefaultView
With Me.MyDataGridView
.Columns.Clear()
.AutoSize = True
.DataSource = view
For Each col As DataGridViewColumn In Me.MyDataGridView.Columns
col.ReadOnly = True

View 8 RepliesI've got a VB2008 application that can potentially generate a table with up to 540 columns. The table is then used as the DataSource for a DataGridView. With column counts in the hundreds the processing time can by over a minute. With all this in single threaded Form code the UI locks up until the DataGridView is loaded. I've taken time stamps of the process to find out where the majority of time is spent.

I'm learning some more VB in my spare time, and I'm making a simple customer database that uses SQLCE. I've got the datasource set up and all that, but for some reason when I hit accept on the form, nothing happens?

Brief : I have code which works if I don't dispose of the BindingSource after it has been assigned to DataGridView.DataSource but breaks if I do dispose it - why? Do I need to worry about disposing this?
[Code]...
So, what is going on here? When I set DataGridView1.DataSource = Bds does it just do this as a reference? How does Bds get disposed once the procedure exits? Does garbage collection pick it up if I assign something else to DataGridView1.DataSource? Do I need to worry about this?
I have a bound datagridview which populates from the database using parameters. I've added a combobox column through the datagridview properties. How do I access this combobox column datasource?
