I am using VB.NET together with ADO.NET to create a program. I have set my TableAdapters as needed and bound the correct tables-columns to my comboboxes.My problem though is this:My combobox2 item is bound to a datatable. The table adapter's Fill method (the select command basicaly) includes a public variable in the where clause to fetch the correct results. I ll put some code here to clarify it a bit more.Public Class Frm_inv
I have a table in my database with 5 columns (ID1 to ID5) and just one row. I'm trying to bind a comboBox, to show ID1 through ID5 in the combobox when my form loads. I have a dataset and tableAdapter's made for this already. I just want to know how to bind a combobox to those ID values.
I'm making a combobox on a form. I want the combobox to have a list of choices from a table in a db. The two columns are a String and a Date. I want the date column to only show the year. I'm hoping I have the code right as it is above, but I'm not positive I've done the whole date thing right.
I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?
I have a form in my vb.net application used to take the data about the returned stock. The form contains two comboboxes. One, named combobox5, contains invoice numbers and the other, named combobox3, contains party codes. Both the comboboxes are pre_loaded using sqldataadapter.
Now what i want is to change the party code in combobox3 when the invoice number is changed in combobox5. Elaborating it further, When Stock is issued the party code is stored along with the invoice number to keep track of to which party was the stock issued. Now when stock is returned i want to keep track that which party has returned the stock and i want that the party code should be automatically selected when the invoice number is changed and it should be what is stored in the database against that particular invoice number....
I'm using the following code for doing so:
Private Sub ComboBox5_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox5.SelectedIndexChanged ' defines a new connection to the database Dim con As New SqlConnection("Data Source=TAHA;Initial Catalog=ADT;Integrated Security=True")
if i have list of names in a comboboxs ( mike , phlip , akon , roy),,, (( from database)) i have combobox1 , combobox2 ,combobox3 and combobox4 they all have the same list names if i chose mike in combobox1 in combobox2 , combobox3 and combobox4 the list will be ( phlip , akon , roy) then i chose akon in combobox2
vs2005 -vbI have a combobox that gets its values from a call to the db. I have programatically added the list values for the box to match all the possible values that could be pulled from the DB. The user can update these values and update the db entry.I would like to be able to display any entries from the db, however, there is one value on the list that I don't want the user to be able to change the combobox's value to. I'm hoping there is some way to to 'hide' or '.visible=false' for just this one item when the list drops down so the user can't select that value.The box sits in a datagridview. I realize I could use the 'cellbeginedit' & 'cellendedit' events to prevent this action, but I consider that to be a last resort, as I think not showing it on dropdown is preferable code-wise.
I am successfully hiding a combobox, based on the selection of another combobox. However, I can not get the label of the combobox to hide as well. The code I am using, which is basically the same code for hiding the combobox itself returns the following error: Error 1 'DOCUMENT_EVALLabel' is not a member of 'WindowsApplication1.Form1' Here is the code I am using for the label: Me.DOCUMENT_EVALLabel.Visible = (EVALUATIONComboBox.Text = "Text")
I have an application using ComboBox with ComboBox.DropDownStyle = DropDown, I want to hide the dropdown button of it, and dropdownitems will be displayed programmatically, when required.
The remarked area works fine when I'm accessing a specific table. I've successfully inserted the products_model field into the combobox too. The datagridview does show the table names in the db using the SHOW TABLES sql statment, but I'm not understanding how to get this info into the combobox instead.
I'm writing a standalone application in VB.NET using Visual Studio 2005. I want to display/hide a bunch of Buttons based on the selected value of a ComboBox. Each selection would have a different set of Buttons to display, and I'd like to have them arranged in a nice grid.
Driving a TabControl with the ComboBox value would be the kind of behavior I want, but I don't want it to look like a TabControl to the user because it might be confusing.Is there a way to do this?
Basically, I'd like Selection1 of the ComboBox to show Buttons 1-4, Selection2 to show Buttons 5-11, Selection3 to show (maybe) Buttons 1, 3, 5, 6, and 8, etc., have them arranged nicely, and have the GUI show only the ComboBox and the buttons.
I have a combobox in an app that auto-populate. Some of the items have the same name and so there is the problem: when an item is selected and there is another one w/ the same name , when the combobox is clicked again, the fisrt item with that name is selected, not the one that was clicked.
for example:
there is a combobox with the following items:
aaa bbb ccc ddd ccc
I open the combobox. I click the last ccc. I open the combobox again and the first ccc is selected, not the last.
I have some text boxes in my form that takes data and saves the data to the database. There is a combo box on the form that loads data from a specific field of a database.
When I enter and save the new data (using the textboxes), the combobox doesn't show the newly entered data. I tried to refresh the combobox using code like combobox.refresh, me.refresh etc....to refresh the form but nothing is working.
The combobox only display the new data when I close the form and reload the form again. Anyway, the data loading in the combobox is done using datasource, displaymember, valuemember in the properties So, how can I make the combobox show the updated record (field)?
the combobox name is cboManager the Displaymember: Mname
Here's the code
Private Sub frmAdmin_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'UserDataSet.Manager' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
i using VB.Net to developing my application.in forms i have comobox, in combobox datas are filled by using datasource from process layer.i want '--Select--' is first items in all combobox. but i tried my ways, i cann't bring it.
How to add item in combobox when combobox has a set datasource property?
those combobox is datasource enable.. when it display data from the database but when i add new item i want to those data from datasource is clear and add new items for selection and those are in bold line but it start process to add those item it gives me error "Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set."
how could i add item to a combobox with an enable datasource property[code]...
In VB.Net for an ASP project I was able to do the following:
Dim Item As ListItem While DataReader.Read Item = New ListItem Item.Text = DataReader.Item("CustomerName").ToString Item.Value = DataReader.Item("CustomerNumber").ToString Me.lstCustomers.Items.Add(Item) End While
However in a VB.Net Windows Project it won't let me duplicate this.
I need to display the CustomerName but return the CustomerNumber of the selected customer
I am also adding the items in code because they are changing based on changing values.
I'm in the process of converting an Access 2007 database to vb.net (in visual studio 2010). I want the user to be able to maintain the items in these comboboxes....adding, updating, and deleting any item they choose. In Access, I had a button which would display the combobox items and allow the user to maintain. Upon leaving this display, the combobox would be refreshed. Is this the best practice for vb.net? Would it be any different than what I'm doing now in Access?
So, I've been reading around on the internet and through MSDN trying to find a way to add thousands of items to a combobox without taking 12 seconds.I KNOW, I'm going to incite reflex-responses involving: bad design; use categories and filter; use BeginUpdate ...Here's the thing.I've read through a lot of similiar forum questions as the one I'm asking and none really seemed to answer the question, but these responses are common.The problem is, there is no way to further categorize.I have thousands of customers and each customer can have anywhere from 1 to tens of thousands of designs.The designs have to IDs: DesignID and DesignTitle. The data entry people sometimes have the one and sometimes have the other. If they have the DesignID than all they've got is a number ranging from 1 to (at this time) 60,000. One Customer has 11000 designs. I don't know of any way to further categorize.The reason I use a combobox is for autocomplete. Also, with most customers there are only 10-20 designs, but for some there are thousands.I have to have one practical solution that handles all possibilities.
As far as BeginUpdate or SuspendLayout is concerned, neither have any effect.The sad thing is, the DataSource takes less than a second to load from my DataBase.It's just the setting of the datasource for the combobox that takes so long.It seems to iterate through the entire list once for the bindingsource and then again when I set the DisplayMember.I can set the display member before I set the binding source but that doesn't make any difference in terms of performance.Performance is improved by almost half when I don't use a BindingSource and just set the Combo's DataSource to the List directly, but, sadly, I need to use the bindingSource because there are multiple Combos using the same list.I know WPF uses virtualization for it's combos,.On the internet I found a Technical document on how to implement a Virtual Combobox in C#, but the code was incomplete and I don't really have the time to spend several days creating and debugging something like that.
I'm trying to compare a item i have to enter in a combo box with an item already in the box (duplicating items). I've use the contains function but i need something that is case sensitive. Here is what i have so far
Is there any option to disable particular items in a combobox?? If No then how can i do that??
I have 4 items in Combobox. For each items( based on combobox selected index change) lots of other calculation is there. i need to display all items but in some cases second item should be disabled.
Is it possible to disable some items in a combobox?Depending on the current mode that my application is in, certain items need to be enabled or disabled.I know that I could remove the items and rebuild the combobox but in this case I think that by showing the items greyed out it gives the user feedback as to what mode they are in and what options would be available to them if they decided to switch modes.
I'm trying to add three comboboxes DAY, MONTH, YEAR to the student database column DOB.I'm using the
newStudentClass.dob = CType(comboDobYear.SelectedItem & "-" & comboDobMonth.SelectedValue & "-" & comboDobDay.SelectedItem, Date) newStudentClass.dob is a function that adds the student DOB to the SQL student database.
