View 3 RepliesDB/Reporting :: Use A Listview Or Similar As A Multi-column Combo Or List Box?
Sep 10, 2008I have been reading books and the forums for a rew days now trying to work out how to use any control to carry out the following:Basically, I want to display a selection e.g "Club Name" in a combobox (or similar control) and have the ID of that selection in a separate hidden column e.g. "ClubID". This will allow me to easily reference and store the actual "ClubID" in the required record when I save it back to the database.I can not use the "SelectedIndex" property of the control as the combobox is populated from a 'sorted' stored procedure so the "SelectedIndex" does not match the actual index of the selection.
I have found lots of posts saying use the "ListView" control, but none of them actually show examples of how to bind the control to a data control to acheive what I need.What I am after is a turorial showing ADO code (because I want to hard code this to get a better understanding of how it all works) binding a multi-column control to a SQL database.
VS 2008 Disable Text Boxes Until Combo Box Choice Is Made?
May 28, 2009I currently have my cute little first program made... I'm just stepping into the water with this programming thing. I made a program where you can select a shape from a drop-down list and then input some values and click a button and get the area of the shape. I have it working so that when a certain shape is chosen, certain fields are disabled, such as when you pick "circle" from the combo box, the "length", "width", and "number of sides" text boxes are disabled but the "radius" text box is enabled, thus allowing you to enter the radius and find the area. I want to make it so that when you first load the program, all of the text boxes for the length, width, number of sides and radius are disabled until you select a shape from the list. Currently I'm using
[Code]...
This works for disabling the correct boxes when something is selected, but I don't know if I'm even on the right path with that first part.

Oct 29, 2009First, I don't fully understand why VBA can have a multi column combobox but full VB doesn't? What purpose does it serve to only have a drop down list of text strings? I know there is an index property, but what if the items in the drop down can't logically be associated with an index value?
Anyways, here is my problem. I have an enumeration value that I want to add to a combobox. I have the code to go through and add the text of each enumeration value to a combobox.

Combo Boxes Which Displays One Column Of One Database?
May 2, 2012I have some combo boxes which displays one column of one database, and I want to trigger a query to it every time the CBox is changed, but as soon as the dialog with the cboxes opens, triggers itself..
Private Sub cbProd2_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles cbProd2.SelectedIndexChanged
'MsgBox("Changed")
txtQtd1.Text = "2"
End Sub
[Code]...
To test it I used the MsgBox and everytime the form opens it triggers the Msgbox 3 times each combobox.
I tried with SelectecIndexChanged and SelectedValueChanged but none of them worked good (I tried both isolated, one at time)

Combo Box To List Boxes In VB?
Nov 30, 2009I am trying to create a WPF browser application that allows you to search and display recipes. The combo box presents choices, the Ingredients display in one list box and the "cooking" instructions appear in the other list box. What's happening is the first time you make a selection from the combobox nothing displays, and this could be happening because the first line of code under Selectionchanged clears the List Boxes however, it should be populating those list boxes with content, shouldn't it? Anyway, as you make other selections List boxes 1 & 2 get populated but they do not match what displays in the Combo box, i.e. if you select "Easy Taco Dip" any random recipe might appear in List Boxes 1 & 2.

List Box Combo Box And OLEDB?
May 13, 2012Basically I need to create a form that will display a summary of the population trend for each species of butterfly from a database that I have.I will do this by having the user select which butterfly species he/she wants to view from a combo box and then the list box will display the count_2010 and count_2011 information for that butterfly species.
I have managed to link my combo box to the database but I am unable to get any information to be shown in my list box. I can use a select case and input text myself but I don't want to do that as in another form records need to be added. Is it possible to have the relevant fields from the access database show up in the list box after the user selects a species from the combo box?

View 2 RepliesCombo Box List Populated At Runtime?
May 10, 2010I have a project that currently uses an XML config file to create some groups. Based on these groups, you can search a database for information. What I want to do is create a form for editing that file. I can get to the information via messagebox, but when putting it into a ComboBox, I can't get the list updated. I have tried the text property which only populates the initial selection, and the Items is a read-only property. Nothing else looks close to what I want to do.
My other thought is to populate a datatable with the information and then populate the combo box from the database. It seems like an extra step that I shouldn't need, but it may be the only option right now.
The reason it can't be hardcoded is that the XML config file is already being used by a program, and the file may be updated from two or three computers, meaning I need a central location for the file.

Efficeintly Loading Combo Box List?
Sep 30, 2010I have 3 combo boxes on a form. They are all going to load the same list. This list is in a database. My first thought was to attach the list to the combo boxes as a datasource. That would require me to create the datasource 3 times to load the same list. To me that seems terribly inefficient. If I attach all 3 combo boxes to the same datasource (list object) then when one cboBox value changes, they all change. So my thought is to load the list once into a list object, then create a loop that loops through each item in the list and adds it to the 3 combo boxes.
