I have a vb.net window app that has a number of combo boxes on it. These are being populated from a number of XML files and all this works like a charm. The problem i have is when it comes to putting the comboboxes in a datagridview. I have set up my columns and have set the first column to be a combobox but i'm having problems referencing this so that i can set the datasource to populate it.
I've looked everywhere but cant seem to find how to reference this control. Once this has been selected it will populate a second combo box based on the data from the first. I think i can sort this out, if i could only work out how to set the datasource of the first combo programatically.
I need a little advice in manipulating DataGridView in Visual Basic .Net. This is my first time playing with DataGridView. My program is to load a .txt file containing data of every room in a building and display them in the DataGridView. Here is a portion of the file showing 2 rooms:
A room is a one-line string that ends with an endline character.I have no problem with loading the file and getting all these information. I store data of each room into an object of class Room, and put them in a list.Right now, I put all of the properties of the room into the data grid's columns like this:
Now, how can I put all these rooms' data into the grid? I tried follow [URL].. at first, but setting DataSource to a list of class Room imitating from the given link doesn't show anything in the grid view.How can we tell the program to link rows of the grid to a list of objects? Or am I doing it wrong?
i have a datagridview with a column with comboboxes. My problem is that the changes that i am doing from comboboxes didn't occur to datagridview immediately but after the user click to another cell.
What I want to do is use two drop down comboxes (Comboboxes 1 & 2)in tandem in a databound datagridview.Both comboboxes are bound to tables in an SQL 2005 database.By this I mean select an item in combobox 1 and have its display member appear in that combobox.This is usually text.The value member for combobox 1 to be displayed in the combobox 2 which is also text.The value member from combobox 1 has identical values to the display member of combobox 2 in the database tables.If I need to change the display member in combobox 2, as all situations have their exceptions, I want to do this without changing combobox 1.The value member for combobox 2 is numeric and is put into another cell in the DGV for carrying out calculations.I have managed to get the display of combobox 1 working on its own and ignoring the value member.I have done the same with combobox 2 and have the value member working correctly.
Can databound comboboxes be used in this manner or will VB.net not allow this type of operation.I have not done this with any code. I tried to get my required operation through the edit facility in the DGV.When attempting to run the program, it does not compile and throws an error which basically says "You have done something wrong.Sort it out."Typical Microsoft help! Can it be done using code in the datasets or binding sources?
I have problem with a datagridview with combo boxes firing unwanted events handlers.I have a datagridview with 4 columns all data bound. All of these columns have comboboxes. Column 2,3,4 has a custom generated combobox with code with on the 'DataGridView_EditingControlShowing event' and have event handlers (Dropdown,selected Etc). (Data in the custom generated comboboxes needs to be filtered and worked on)
I have three comboboxes in a form. The first is the parent of the second, which is the parent of the third. When they are all updated, a datagridview should be updated.
The problem is that the user can choose to change the value of either combobox, so I don't know which combobox's value is being changed. Therefore I now update the datagridview from the third combobox's selectedvaluechanged event. This unfortunately means that if the first combobox is changed, the second and third comboboxes selectedvalue events must trigger. As a consequence, when the first combobox is changed, the datagridview is being updated about six times (which doesn't work for me performancewise).
What I'd like to do is to call the updatedatagridview sub from either one of the three comboboxes, but only if the user has chosen to change that specific combobox's value (that is, get the form to only update the datagridview when the selectedvalues of all three comboboxes have been set).
I have a form that lists all of the clients in a DataGridView and when I click on a column that is a Link I want the data to populate into the form I use to capture. My problem is that when I click on the link all the TextBoxes on the form are filled correctly but my ComboBoxes are not.[code]
this is a subset of a previously posted problem, I have narrowed down my issue and am reposting a question from this thread: [URL] I have apparently confused the compiler by renaming some comboboxes in Visual Basic .net express? (See relevant code below) I think the confusion is in who should handle what, with two routines named with variations of ComboBox1 and one handling the other ( it confuses me just trying to interpret it mentally):
I have a form with 4 comboboxes and a button. The first combobox is enabled, but the rest of the controls are disabled. When the form is opened I fill the first combobox (cbxMethod) with a datatable. When the user selects something in cbxMethod the next combobox (cbxStudy) will be filled and so on. When the last combobox (cbxAnalyte) has a selected value I want to enable the button and give it focus so the user can move forward with the program. I basically want to force the user to move from one combobox to the other, until all are filled.I am currently using the SelectionValueChange event, but this event only fires when the user changes the value with their mouse or hits the Enter key, not when the user hits the Tab key.

I've uploaded in SkyDrive my project to give a better picture of my problem:Cascading Combobox works just once in _SelectionChangeCommitted, and, DataGridView do not follow 3rd Combobox filter?
I'd like to create a data bound comboboxcolumn off of the distinct results of a view in my database. The view returns tablenames within the database which do not already have an entry configured. I use this as a entry to tell a purge application how and what tables to purge.Setting up this combobox proves to be a little more difficult than I imagined because my view pulls from informationschema.columns in the master db and therefore is unrelated in the 1:M traditional scenario. So as a result my displaymember and valuemember get the same field unlike most examples I see where some integer or enum is the backing value in the valuemember. Not the case here.
When I put all this together and run the code I do have choices in my drop down list but the current cell is blank. What is going on here?..create column
Dim Tablenamecolumn As DataGridViewComboBoxColumn = New DataGridViewComboBoxColumn() With Tablenamecolumn .Name = "DBTableName"[code]....
If I change things around a little bit and I get an argumentexception telling me that "DBTableName does not exist".I have one query that on startup calls for all my entries in purgeconfig table and it contains "DBTableName". Then I have another query which returns me a single column with many rows and a different field name and that's what I am using for the column's datasource. I can manipulate that query to change the column name to match "DBTableName" that the other datatable has, yet it still doesn't work. Do I need to create a data relation or something between them? Why aren't they wiring up?
The only way I can make my code work without the argument exception is to refer to my combobox with the field name of the column coming out of my View. Anytime I start using the other column name it throws the argument exception.This isn't the only column i'm going to need to do like this and i've spent a lot of time trying to figure out what i've done wrong and why it doesn't display the current value in the cell, only a blank cell insteadl.
I am trying to put a datatable into a dateset, which I then export to a CSV file. I am getting this error

My problem is that I cannot create more than one set of each element that I am creating. And then put that into the code that creates the image. Is there a way of creating this line of code and then putting it into say a variable and then putting the variable into the code where the image is created?
The error is :"Access of shared member, constant member or enum member or nested type through an instance, qualifying expression will not be evaluated"
The code is:
Code: Imports System.IO Imports System.Threading Public Class In_Process
Is it possible to set an *.ico (icon) file as an image for a button ? I tried it but I saw I can only select *.jpg , *.bmp , *.gif files etc , but no icons . I am sure it's me who's stupid enough not to be able to do that , not Microsoft for removing this possibility which was available in VB6 , therefore , please tell me there is a way to do that !
I have attached a picture of yahoo Messenger with this Thread and highlighted the 2 text fields and a button with red line. The problem is that I have seen a small program in the computer of my friend. When He double clicked on that program, it (program) automatically puts the User ID and Password in Yahoo Messenger relevant fields and automatically presses the Login Button. I have tried much to get the source code of that program, but cant.
This is with Visual Basic 2005 or with Visual Basic.net 2003 I am asking this in regard to. The point here is that I need the space that the Tab pages will offer but it is on an Mdi "backbone".

I have 5 combo boxes all connected to a database by datasets.
The user should be able to select different items but for some reason when one combobox item is selected, the same item becomes selected for every combobox.
I haven't coded anything regarding the cbx's so why is it doing this?
I have two comboboxes the first one is for order #, the second one is for the amount of order payments, there could be 1, 2, 3... payments for this order. I would like to get all payments to show in the second combobox that relate to the order # selected in the first, process that payment by changing other values in other textbox's. Then have that payment psoted as processed back to the DB table. I have a binding satament, but it pulls all payments, and not just per order. How can I get this to select just by order #?
I have this code that adds items in 2 comboboxes: The first code works fine as it adds the dates into the comboxes

But when I try to add items by month I always get this error in these lines: ComboBox2.Items.Add(myDataReader("DateRecorded")) ComboBox3.Items.Add(myDataReader("DateRecorded")) It says: IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandled [Code] .....
I have a project in which the comboboxes above the code window, below the tabs have disappeared. If I open and close the project, they do not appear. If I open another project, they do appear. As soon as a open the project where they do not appear, they disappear.
I have: [code] So, when I select something from cmbx1 it selected in cmbx2. How does it works?Do I need a copy of dt for second combobox to get independed but same values?
putting images in a dataset. I'm developing a windows application that accesses an sql server database in another server, an sql server 2000 database. A table, tblProducts, contains a field called ProdImage with type VarChar. ProdImage contains the path of the image which is stored in the server's file system.
