I followed an example to add a custom control (multicolumnCombobox) to my datagridview.[code]Ok, this is fine and dandy, for it adds the custom control to column 2 and row X of that loop.... Now, when I actually use the control for lets say row 0, how do I get the row 0 cell 2 value to be the same as the custom control??I have no way to communicate between the custom control and the datagridview cell.
View 4 RepliesDoes anyone know how to highlight or change the color of text inside a datagridview cell? Not change the back or fore colors of the whole cell, but only for a particular word inside the cell. This is to make the search results more visible to the user.I tried doing it in the Cell_Formatting event of the datagridview but I'm only seeing options to change values of the entire cell (e.CellStyle). If there was only a way to select text inside the cell and set the selected text's properties. Or if I could use some formatting tags around the text.
View 14 RepliesI have a datagrid control on my form that receives data from a device on the COM port. I strip out the data I need and put it into the currently selected cell. When I load the grid, I find the first empty cell and set the focus so each load presents the user with an empty cell to start receiving data. Once I get the measurement, I need to move to the next cell down (like hitting enter in the grid). This will allow the user to do measurements with the external device without having to move to the next cell.

I am trying to display a custom control in a datagridview cell so that I can show nicely formatted information.
I am quite comfortable with the use of datagridview control accepting a list of objects as its datasource. I am also comfortable with populating the cell contents in the cellformatting event.
So I am planning to, instead of using a normal textbox control, button control and linkedtext control in datagridview cell, display my own custom control which is good one for displaying some custom data like, name, address, telephone, photo and others. It would be a nice improvement in my application.
I've followed the tutorial on the MSDN for this subject to the T and I'm not getting the User Control to Display in the cell.
I don't think the InitializeEditingControl is ever getting called by the Cell for some reason.
Here are my classes:
This is the actual User Control Class:
vb.net
Public Class CustomCheckBoxUC
Implements IDataGridViewEditingControl

I have added a custom Control to my project, but every time I edit it and rebuild the form that I use the custom control in adds the project name in front of the control and won't compile. i.e. Project name = MyProject, Custom Control name = MyControl. When I rebuild the project after editing my control I get an error, MyProject.MyControl doesn't exist. If I remove the MyProject from the line it compiles and runs fine until next time I edit the custom control.
I can't figure out what I would be doing wrong to cause this, or why it is putting the project name in front of the control, but then not accepting it. I am also struggling figuring out how to change the back color on an individual cell in an Datagridview Combo Box. The style.backcolor property of the cell doesn't seem to do anything.
I'm trying to figure out how to set/change text within a cell in a DataGridView control. When I was using the MSFlexGrid, I used the TextMatrix function. How can I do a similar function in vb 2008?
View 1 Replieshow could I get the text of a specific cell in a DataGridView control ? If it matters , in my case , all the cells contain strings or nothing .

I've found some examples on the web ,but they were all for C# ... I guess , though , it has to be easy .

I am developing a software using microsoft visual studio basic 2010. I used a datagridview control to display a list of data from product table. What I want to do (actually I am not sure how to do it, or is there a way to do it), when I choose one of the value in one of the column inside the table, I want it to open a form that contain data(details) based on that value.
How to do it? How to call the value that I pressed, so it can be used to open a new form containing the details of that value
Example of the data: (the "system" column) SYSTEM
topaz
nex1300
Nec
If I pressed "topaz" system, it will prompt me to a new form containing the details of that "topaz" system.

How to programmatically change foreground color and make bold text in individual cell location on DataGridView control (Visual Basic)?
I use "dgMatrix.Rows(r).Cells(c).Value = x" to assign individual numeric values to individual cells in a DataGridView control. My question; is there a similar way to change foreground color and make bold the text in this cell, by specifying the individual row/column cell location?
For example; for cell (row 3, col 5) in the DataGridView make text in cell say red and bold or blue and bold so as to highlight and distinguish individual cell contents. As needed, I will also need to reset these properties (foreground back to automatic/black and font from bold back to regular); the reset could be done globally to the whole DataGridView as opposed to indiviaually by cell.
Have this code so that when a checkbox in a column of my datagridview is checked, then the corresponding cell in column 2 (of the same row the check box is in) will turn blue with font color white.

I have a DataGridView with several columns. One column is a TextBox column named "Status". This column can only show one of three values: 'Final', 'Ready', or 'No Reportable'. I want to have some code that would turn the TextBox cell into a ComboBox cell when the user left-clicks on the cell to allow the user to choose one of these three options. When the user clicks elsewhere or the cell loses focus I want the cell to change back to a TextBox cell.
Here is what I have so far, but the code throws an exception indicated below Plus, I don't think the code would remove the combobox when the cell loses focus.
Exception: "Provided cell does not belong to this DataGridView control."

View 5 RepliesI am making an invoicing application. I have a label (lblCost) inside of a UserControl (InvoiceEntry) inside of a FlowLayoutPanel (pnlEntries). InvoiceEntry represents a line item on the invoice, and pnlEntries is the "body" of the invoice. pnlEntries can hold several InvoiceEntry controls.
I am attempting to sum all of the lblCost values from each InvoiceEntry control to make a subtotal, and I want that subtotal to change automatically if costs are changed (e.g., a change in quantities being ordered). Is there a way to handle when the lblCost.Text property of any of the InvoiceEntry controls contained within pnlEntries changes?

View 1 RepliesI have a datagridview and it has 8 columns as textboxcolumns. I am handling their cell validation with cellValidating event.
My question is that if cell validation fails for 3rd column of the datagridview then the focus should move from 3rd column to 1st column of the datagridview. How can i do this?
I have tried datagridview.column(0).selected = true, when validation for 3rd column fails, but this is not working. Focus still moves to the next cell. I can stop the focus to the current cell with e.cancel=true but i want it to move to the very first cell of the datagridview.

View 4 RepliesI have an asp.net usercontrol which represents a "popup" dialog. Basically, it's a wrapper for the jQuery UI dialog which can be subclassed to easily make dialogs. As part of this control, I need to inject a div into the page the control is used on, either at the very top or very bottom of the form so that when the popup is instantiated, it's parent is changed to this div. This allows "nested" popups without the child popup being trapped inside the parent popup.
The trouble is, I can't find a safe way to inject this div into the page. A usercontrol doesn't have a preinit event, so I can't do it there, and calling Page.Form.Controls.Add(...) in Init, Load or PreRender causes the standard exception "The control collection cannot be modified during DataBind, Init, Load, PreRender or Unload phases."
I thought I had found a solution by using. ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Page, Me.GetType, UniqueID + "_Dialog_Div", containerDiv, False) which seemed to work well normally, but recently a coworker tried putting an UpdatePanel inside the dialog and now she's getting the error "The script tag registered for type 'ASP.controls_order_viewzips_ascx' and key 'ctl00$ContentBody$OViewZips_Dialog_Div' has invalid characters outside of the script tags: . Only properly formatted script tags can be registered."
How are you supposed to add controls to the pages control collection from inside a user control?
