View 1 RepliesI have a combo box that has a drop down list with long values in the drop down
Ex:
LB - Pounds
GR - Grams
When the user selects on of the values I want to just show the Abreviaqtions and not the descriptions. So when the drop down is shown it shows
LB - Pounds
GR - Grams
When the user selects "GR - Grams" from the drop down list "GR" is the only this shown in the combobox. I've tried TextChange,SelectedIndexChange and SelectedValueChange but I can't get them to work.
How to query a record in vb.net using combo or textbox via linq to sql like the search engine? Just like when you search in google or youtube, once you typed in the initial string on the textbox or combo box it will show a drop-down list. I tried to use it in my application using linq method but the problem is it would duplicate on the first string that you entered on the dropdown list if that record exist on your database after you press the space key. I used the code below which duplicates the records on the drop-down list when you type in your string after the space key.
I just want it to be like in any search engine that when you type in the string or your initial string, it will display on the drop-down list all the records from the database that contains the string you entered without duplication. In my case, I'm trying to query a name from my database. This is how it should work, For example, if you type an initial string in the textbox or combo box a named 'Mark', it should display all the names from the database containing 'Mark' into the drop-down list before it changes into its final string that you entered.
Here is the codes I used:
Private Sub ComboBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
ComboBox1.TextChanged
Dim db As New MultipleDatabaseOperationDataContext
Dim search As String
search = ComboBox1.Text

I need to write a process which filters out 'old/dead' job files from a directory (actually two directories). This process needs to 'read' a number pattern (in a fixed position) off the filenames (for which there will almost certainly be duplicates), and having then 'got a list' of unique number patterns, give these to a function (which I already have) which will give a boolean, from which I can decide to either delete those files whose name contain this particular number pattern or not - this is intended to be run each night (windows task scheduler). Example directory content is:

I know I can get a listing using Directory.GetFiles(dirpath, "SUB_*.xml") but am stuck on how to go about the rest.
I'm trying to find an easy to create a hierarchical directory structure that I can put in a TreeView, with two caveats:
1) The file list is from a file
2) The paths are un *nix format (e.g. /dir/dir/file rather than c:dirdirfile)
I found this ([URL]) which would do what I want...if not for the two caveats above. I can go through the process of tokenizing the paths and start creating linked lists of objects for a directory structure, but before I do that I'd like to find out if anything else is available...
