Finding A Control Within A FormView From Code-behind?
Jun 24, 2009
Here the code behind... I'm trying to retrieve this control so I can add items to the drop down list (I'm retrieving the Role Groups to add to the drop down list in the code-behind)
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim DDRoleGroups As DropDownList
I have an ASP pg with a formview list control on it that hooks up to a sql database customer table. I want to access the customer name outside the form.
How do I: A) access the bound text box in the form view template? Something like Text1.text=formview1.customername.text (that doesn't work but that's the kinda thing) B) access the database field in the table that the sqlsource connects to to feed the formview
I have a checkbox and a panel inside of a FormView control, and I need to access them from the code behind in order to use the checkbox to determine whether or not the panel is visible. This is the code that I originally used, but since I put the controls inside of the FormView, it no longer works.
Protected Sub checkGenEd_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) If checkGenEd.Checked = True Then
[Code]....
There aren't any errors anymore, but nothing happens when I click the checkbox. I think there needs to be some kind of event to trigger it but I don't know how you can put an event handler inside of an event handler.
Hello: i have javascript code for a popup calendar and works fine if a form is a form control: <form id="FormView1" runat="server">
however, if i use my formview control w/ the same code for a formview control, it doesn't put the value back into my text box txtDate after the user selects the date:
this seems to be the only difference so i was wondering if perhaps i need to reference this form in a different way? i don't know why it won't work for my formview control.
I have 2 formviews, the first SELECTS the SUM of one of my fields in my tablr and displays the result in a label. The second contains a form that submits data into this table. When i submit a new value into the second form i want the first form to update. My VB currently has:
I have an ASP.NET page with a Wizard control containing several pages of form fields. The data is collected and inserted to a database from the code behind page. I need to set this form up so you can not only insert, but edit a record as well. Since the form is long and complex, I would rather use the existing one and not make a duplicate one for editing, especially since I want to keep both forms exactly the same and any edits would have to be made to both. But it looks like this is what I need to do if I'm going to databind it. But this would also involve putting the Wizard inside of a FormView, and then I'd have to use FindControl to access any of the fields which would mean altering all my already-existing code (which of course would be time-consuming). So should I manually enter all the values from the code behind instead of databinding it? Which is better, to use a FormView and have duplicate forms (plus have to go in and redo the way I access the fields), or to do everything from the code behind?
find a current and simple way to do this. I'm using VWD Express 2008 and SQL Express 2008.I'm able to get the client's path to the image file using an asp:FileUpload control on the web form.How do I upload the client's image file and display it in the web form's image control?How do I save it to the sqlserver? The image table is already set up with a "Image" data type column. Can the image be saved to the database as simply as other data types?
I've looked throu all of the SendMessage(messages) but there does not seem to be anything like WM_GetPos.Now I can accomplish through AHK with ControlGetPos, but for the life of me I can not figure out what Win API function they are calling to accomplish this.We have an order entry system we use, that I am trying to automate the printing of our reports (we have 4 per order form) to save time

I am working on a little small 10 question quiz. The quiz is just for fun for a work thing I'm doing. I'm using VB.net. I'd like to put in one of the questions something like "what's your favorite baseball team?" Then list 3 radio buttons for 3 possible answers. But I'd like to make 2 of the radio buttons move away when a person tries to mouse over it to click on it. So only the answer I want them to use would be possible. I can creat it all but the code to make the raido buttons move when moused over. I've been searching but having trouble finding anything on how to do this.
I don't have my actual quiz code in front of me. But can post the form code for that question later tonight when I get home if needed. But the form is very basic. just has the question in a lable, Then the 3 answers below it as radio buttons. I have a next button that goes to the next form and closes the previous one, and an exit button that closes down the whole application.
I am trying to write a VB function to strip unwanted characters from a string. It is for generating a 'clean' url from data that has been inputted into a CMS. Someone has copied and pasted from a Word document and so there appears to be an mdash or ndash in the product title. This results in ─ appearing instead of -
I have tried a Replace(text, Chr(196), Chr(45)) but it isn't working so it can't be 196. Is there a tool or something where I can copy this character and paste it into the tool and it will tell me what char code it is?
I have a vb.net / ado.net application for distributors that queries a sql server db, converts the records to tab delimited text format file. After building the file, the user goes to the website of the manufacturer, logs in to a private area and uploads the txt file.
I would like to add a function to my vb.net code that would launch a browser in a form, load the manufacturer's login screen, load the user id, password and then let the user log in by clicking the login button. Then when the next page loads, I'd like to have the text file I just created pop into the web page text box for file name, choose a couple of radio button options properly and then let the user click the submit button.
I must admit it's been a few years since my RegEx class and since then, I have done little with them. So I turn to the brain power of SO. . . I have an Excel spreadsheet (2007) with some data. I want to search one of the columns for a pattern (here's the RegEx part). When I find a match I want to copy a portion of the found match to another column in the same row.
i am trying to figure out how to go about finding this window's label when the control name is the same as all the other labels on the program.[code]All 3 labels are named the same. The one i am most interested in is a progress % counter (1%, 2%, 3%, etc..)How can i get the value (using a timer of course) from that label without knowing the caption of it at any given time??
Private Shared Function Factorial(ByVal Number As Long) As Long If Number = 0 Then Return 1 Else Return Number * Factorial(Number - 1) End If End Function
It usually results in an overflow. It only works if I start with something small like 4. I have to work with starting numbers such as 30-60. I thought changing the value type to LONG would prevent this problem. This is VB.net just for reference.
There may be times when it would be useful for your code to be able to find and close modal dialogs displayed by an application. Perhaps you do not want to have to wait indefinitely for your user's input, or are using the COM Web browser control to automatically navigate Web page and would like to interactively close alert messages that pop up.Digging into our Interop toolbox, we find that this is a relatively simple process using a few core Win32API calls. Starting with the handle of the main window associated with the dialog (this is the form from which the messagebox was shown, whether from your code or from a Web page hosted in a Web browser control on the form), the GetWindow function can be used to retrieve a handle to a dialog windows (called a popup by the Windows API) being displayed (if any). The same function can then be used to enumerate the child windows of the dialog to find a button on the dialog to click in order to close it, and the SendMessage API function can be used to simulate that click, effectlvely closing the dialog window.
NOTE: At the top of whatever code file you put this code, be sure to include the following line (thanks poiygon for pointing this out):Code:Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices this allows for the shortcuts to the DllImport attributes.[code]This sample can be easily modified to close a dialog in another application (by using the MainWindowHandle of that application in the LookForAndCloseIEPopup function, instead of "Me.Handle") or to close any other type of modal dialog message being displayed to your user.
I need to find .MP3 format URLS in a HTML source code.So how could i do that?Lets say i have:
Dim wcClient As New System.Net.WebClient Dim data As System.IO.Stream = wcClient.OpenRead(inbox.ToString) Dim reader As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(data) reader = reader.ReadToEnd() reader.Close()
so how could i find all the .MP3 urls which are in the source code?
I've found some examples using RegEx but im not really sure how to use the RegEx pattern to find MP3 urls in the source code.
I'm finding a dropdown in an ascxcontrol on my aspx in the following way.

Is there any way I can find the exact reason a form is closing ? To be more specific , I'd like to find when a form is closing :1) because the user pressed the X button on the upper right corner2) due to code (Me.Close , MyForm.Close etc)I know I can use the FormClosing event and use this code :If e.CloseReason = CloseReason.UserClosing Thenhowever it seems that the CloseReason.UserClosing catches both cases (closed by te X button or by code) . So , is there any way I can find exactly the reason a form is closing ?Back in VB6 , the correspondent UnloadMode variable of the Form_Unload event could be "vbFormCode" which indicated specifically that the form was closed by code
