I'm working on a Hazardous Materials label printing program. One of the options is to do an "NFPA" label. Since there are 4 values required with 4 or 6 options, the ratings are entered via radio buttons in a group box. That's working okay. I display values in the NFPA diamond as they're entered: left quadrant blue, top quadrant red, left yellow, bottom red. I'm having trouble with the label in which the rating will be displayed on top of a jpg diamond for the white. In this quadrant the text can be up to 4 characters. I can accept the text going into an adjacent block a little, but the corners of the label overlap into another quadrant/color. I reduced the font size which solved the overlap problem but the font is then too small and looks terrible. I tried to make the background of the label transparent to let the color come through correctly but that's not a valid value for label.background. I'm figuring that the transparent background is the best solution. What can I use that will accept a transparent background so the color shows through?
I'm trying to set the transparent property via label properties properties, not via code. Here's the code if it makes any difference:
Public Class NFPA
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Close()
End Sub

Is there a way to update source combobox to printer combobox selection?So going from printer1 to printer2 the source will update according to what that printer has to offer.
View 8 RepliesI'm having a problem with combo boxes. I usually use Java and it's been awhile since I used VB but I never remember having this much difficulty.My application is using an SDF file. From Data Sources, I drag the details on one of my Tables to my Form to get all of the fields. Three of them are comboboxes. Each of the three is an INT64 and each corresponds to a primary key in a different table. I click the tasks button on a combobox and for data source I select the appropriate table that has the data to go with the combobox, for display member I select the field that I want users to see, and for value member I select the primary key. Then I run a quick test and start the app, open the form, and add a new record. When I select a value from the combobox the selection won't validate because it doesn't think it's an INT64 like it should be. It seems to be using the display member as the actual value instead because if I change display member to the primary everything works great.

View 5 RepliesI currently have a form with two comboxes. The first cbo is being populated with a project number, which is being pulled from the first column of a spreadsheet. I now want the second cbo to read the first cbo and then find that project number on the spreadsheet; when it finds that project number, I then need it to copy data from the row the project number is on. I have converted to vb from vba. Below is the code I used in vba (which obviously does not work). I only need certain cells from the project row.
Dim proj_num, rng As Range
Dim data, i As Long, j As Long

Just wondering if someone can at least point out where I'm going wrong here. I've already got the code to populate the listbox by a button click from the user and am just trying to figure out how exactly to alter the text of a label based on what the user selects in the listbox. From what I have the Label will display the case else selection but nothing else despite my best efforts to get it to change. Here is what I've tried. I realize it is very trivial, but I am only a beginner to programming.

I'm having an issue wherein after I run a search filtering a datagrid, the corresponding datadetails will not update anymore when a new item is selected in the datagrid.I would like it so after clicking an item in the datagrid, the details update automatically.
[URL] The problem is, after running a search (or hitting 'show all') the label/details no longer change when selecting a new item in the datagrid.[URL]
Private Sub Sheet1BindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Me.Validate()
Me.Sheet1BindingSource.EndEdit()
[code]....
To clarify, the search itself filters the datagrid perfectly as intended....it just seems to stop the details from updating when new items are selected which is my problem.
How can I keep a label on my form with the current count of the selected rows. My DGV has a checkbox (unbound) and 3 other columns. When the user clicks on the row I want the checkbox to either be checked or unchecked depending on its status and update a label the is below the DGV to show how many rows are checked. DGV is FullRowSelect.

View 2 RepliesHow do I set my horizontal scroll bar to have the values increment between 1 and 100 and then have a label (lblFuelChosen) updated according to the value chosen on the scrollbar?
I have a label that is named lblFuelChosen and I have a horizontal scrollbar underneath it. I need to set the scrollbar to increment in values between 1 and 100, and the value to be placed in the lblFuelChosen label. How do I set the scroll bar values and how do I set the value to the label?
Is it possible to have a different selection of values in the 2nd combobox depending what was picked on the first combobox? For example an American state is picked in the first combo box and the second combo box loads the cities in that state? I'm just using a basic form in Visual basic 2010 there is no database behind it.
View 6 RepliesI have a vb application sitting on an sql server with 4 different tables. I want a scenario where when I select any table from the combobox, every query I will run should use that table as a reference.
E.g. ComboBox values(tables)=A,B,C,D
If A is selected then
SQLQuery="Select * from A "
If B is selected then
SQLQuery="Select * from B " etc
On my form I have three fields and a datagrid view.One field is a combo box.All fields are databound.The datagridview is a detail grid, bound in the "normal" way. Scrolling through records, etc., all work fine.What doesn't work is when a selection is made using the combo box.The underlying table has a self-join of one-to-many: ParentID, ChildID. ChildID is the main ID for the underlying table.Children may have a parent This is just by way of example.So, the combo box's Value is bound to ChildID, and the SelectedValue is bound to the ParentID.On the form one chooses the Parent with this combo box.When I test this arrangement, I select a Parent, then click Save (using the default toolbar actions). However, the combobox seems to "reset" the selection to the first in the list.

View 1 RepliesI have a combo box that has multiple options, when the user selects one of the options (world wide city destinations) a specific value is assigned to a variable. For example if "New York" is selected the variable "x" is assigned the number 155. What I want to do is output the destination that has been selected ie "New York" in a label called "lblOutput1", do I need to store the destination as a seperate variable to be able to produce it in this label as I cannot seem to get it to work:
At the moment I am using:
lblOutput1.Text = "bla bla bla " + cmbDestination.SelectedText + " bla bla bla " + Today()
How can i bind a comobox selection to a datagridview without writting code...
i Need to select an item from a combox and based on that item refresh the datagrdiview. I did something like that in Access but i don't know how to make it work in visual studio 2008.
once i select the datagridview itme that i want to edit i'd like to be able to update back to the database. I know i need to write code for this but at least i'll have the data refreshed on the datagridview.
I have an app I'm working on with multiple forms. One of the forms, frmLocationInfo, has textboxes and comboboxes which are automatically populated based on a combobox selection from a previous form, frmLocations. I've been able to get any changes made to frmLocationInfo's textboxes to save to the SQL database, however, when attempting to select a different item from any of its comboboxes, it's not saving to the database and instead, I receive a "Procedure or function...has too many arguments specified" error.
Here is the code for the Save button:
'Save changes to Locations db
Private Sub btnSaveClose_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

I have the following constants declared:
Private Const LuxuryRate As Double = 74.84
Private Const FullSizeRate As Double = 48.44
Private Const MidSizeRate As Double = 44.91
Private Const CompactRate As Double = 30.46
And a combobox that lists each option. How can I set an if statement that uses these values if the option is chosen from the combobox? This is going to be part of a calculation performed when the button is pressed.
