View 19 Repliesam havin a problem in loading sorting items in a listbox. what i want is after i load a text file into a listbox the items are compared by the last number and sorted in descending order.
View 1 Repliesi have 1 button, 1 listbox and 1 textbox.this is my code
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
Dim finish As Integer = TextBox1.Text
[code]....
if i set the sorted property of listbox1 to true that code will add 0 before the inputted number so that the sorted property in listbox1 will be usefull in sorting integers.
for example i have 1,15,30,36
it will make 001,015,030,036
thats what i think am not sure because i cant edit the code so that it will work in my program.
I need to sort the items in a visual basic listbox numerically, that is, I have a collection of numbers I would like to be sorted increasingly.
I tried to simply use the listbox's Sorted property, but found that it treated the numbers as if they were strings, that is, it would look at the first digit, then the second, etc. to determine the order. That meant that 13 would show before 5, for example.
I thought of dumping all the numbers into an array, soring the array, and then pushing them back to the listbox, but, honestly, I don't know how to go about the sorting. I figured the array would be useless, since the listbox already acts as a pseudo array.
I am using VB.NET (version 2008). I have two types of items populating in a listbox (checked listbox). For example: lets say one is type "A" and other is "Type B". Their names maybe same so if the user sees those items in listbox then he won;t be able to determine their type until he click on them and checks out its properties. I wanted that I add each item to listbox and colour them so that blue for example means type "A" is there and red means the other. So this way I will be able to know at a glance that how many item of what type is present. I guess it may not be possible to do that in a standard checkedlistbox. I am also using component factory's krypton controls which enhance the gui of an application. But I dunno if I can progress using that.

I have a Windows form with a menu strip (the built-in one, nothing custom).I want to add a new list of items to one of the current menu items programmatically (no problem, done that).The new list of items I am adding is unsorted, but I want them to appear on the menu in alphabetical order.
View 7 RepliesI have a listview with items. I have a sorting class to do it. However when something is changeing my Listview control.
There are 3 colums. All items for each column exists in an struct with 3 items, one for each column. I have checked that I have all data in the array. But when I loop trough array of items and add then to the Listview, then many items in column 2 and 3 is not showing up.... This happens only after I have used the sorting class.[code...]

View 7 RepliesI have the following in my main form
Class MainWindow
Public TableDetails As New List(Of TableDetailsContainer(Of TableXDetails))
Public Sub ArrangeByID()
'''STUCK HERE''''
[code].....
What I basically want to achieve is to sort TableDetails(i) items by their "ID", but I have absolutely no idea how to go about it. Could anyone please give me pointers?Also, I actually want to move the columns within TableDetails(i) around, manually. But I'm not too sure how to do that.
I have created a program that when a user selects a button, an input box is displayed to type in, for instance a name, when clicked ''OK'' the name goes into a textbox, how can i program it so that the contents of that textbox is automatically sorted into Alphabetical order according to the first to the first letter ?
View 9 RepliesSo I want it to remove any text in the list box that has a "Job" in it and just replace it with a blank nothing.
Like if the listbox looked like this
Yardjob
jobsong
redjob
then it would change it to this
Yard
song
red
I also would like a way of removing any blank items from the listbox.

I have problem with Sorting ListBox in Visual Basic 2008. When I load names from some files (file's name is number_name like="156_blabla") and I need sort it by that number
It is:
1018_name1
102_name2
1026_name3
And I need it:
102_name2
1018_name1
1026_name3
I am trying to sort text (File name and path), by having a listbox with just file name and and a datagridview with two columns filename and path.
The listbox sorts it differently from the datagridview. Mainly this is where there is a ' ie listbox puts "you're" before "you are" where the datagridview puts "you are" before "you're".
I thought I would just sort using datagridview and then read from datagrid and add to a non sorting listbox, but this did not work although the datagridview shows sorted, when you go through and a loop, reading each row to add to listbox they end up the same order they where originally put into the datagridview befrore sorting.
What I want is a sorted list of file names only, which will be obtained from several folders and then when clicked with be able to extract the complete path and filename.
I have code with a listbox and datagridview which works ok if I remove any files with ' in them.

I have an application that receives data input from an automated set of devices. This data stream I have managed to capture & get it into a list box which I can sort based on the Device ID & the time that the response was received.There is a set time window for the devices to transmit their data into the application and during this each device is not limited to the number of responses it can send (ie :- Device 1 can send in 2 responses where Device 3 can send in 40 responses, etc).All of the responses are captured, listed & sorted within the listbox (this bit is working ).I now need to extract the last (ie:- latest) entry in the listbox for each Device ID & this is where I am stuck. I can retrieve the last item in the list but cant seem to extract the last item for each Device ID.The code that I am using for the Device response capture, etc is :-

sort the listbox that is being populated by data from an exteranl hard drive. The DB's on the Hard drive are contained in folders with a naming format as follows (Jan94 - Dec08)The issue is that on the HD all the folders(yrs) for Apr are listed together and then the rest listed the same way, just sorted based on 1st alpha character. The format I want to show in the list box is as follows:

I am trying to remove items from a listbox based on the items on another listbox, this seems simple but apparently[code]...

I'm trying to figure out a way to sort the entries of a listbox... but in a different way instead of the obvious one (sorted property). First of all, I need to explain how the items are populated at first:

I'm making an application that does some stuff involving the given subject, so this is very crucial to the completion and efficiency of my application.What I'm in need of today is simple (well, "seems" simple). I have one listbox that I want to populate with directories file's names. I don't mean the files inside the directories, but the names of the folders inside the directory.So, I have "c:empdog", I'd click on my button or whatever and search for the directory and I choose "temp", said listbox would show "dog".
UPDATE: Oh, BTW. It doesn't HAVE to be a listbox, it can be anything (IE: Textbox, Labels, Etc.).
my homework question is to display the selected items from a listbox (multi-extended) in a label. I need to display all the selected names in a label. the simplest most uncluttered way of doing this. This is what I've got but it doesn't work.

Why is this code having the opposite effect? If It's checked in the checkedlistbox it's not check in my view, if it's not check in my checkedlistbox it is checked in the grid.
EDIT: More specifically. The CheckState.Checked is always the opposite. .Checked means it's not checked.
Private Sub CheckedListBox1_ItemCheck(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.ItemCheckEventArgs) Handles CheckedListBox1.ItemCheck

With this code provided by a contributor from this forum ive been able to sort listbox items acording to date from older date to newer date, heres the
Dim dates() As Date = Array.ConvertAll(ListBox2.Items.Cast(Of String).ToArray, Function(s) Date.ParseExact(s, "dd-MM-yyyy", Nothing))
Array.Sort(dates)
[Code]....
How could i use that code to work these out based on only partial checking, what i mean with this is, to sort only by the first date or, to sort by the second date, i rather have it sorted by the first date before the arrow because that is the alarm, the after the arrow date is just the event date information.
I'm trying to add items for the listbox.
Code:

& astudent.studentstate & " " astudent.studentzip & " " astudent.studentphone & " " astudent.studentemail & " " astudent.studentmajor
But I get a syntax error for an &, I also am trying to add items to to combo box(all the U.S. states), but none are showing in the list when I run the program.
I have a botton name ADD ALL which i want to use to add all students to ther other listbox at once and the process them for admission but my code is not working for me and i am stucked.[code]...
