Apparently, an unbound datagridview control cannot be filled at design time, so I have to create rows + fill cells through code. Currently, I use the following type of code to refer to cells:

I am trying to put an unbound button in the last column in a DataGridView control and it appears way, way off to the right when I run the app. I have to scroll all the way to the right to get to the buttons and then manually resize them to show up the way I want them to. I am using the Edit Columns feature found in the Smart Tag of the control. It works ok when I place them anywhere else in the columns! It only messes up when I try to place them at the end of the columns.
View 1 RepliesI am developing a project using VB2010. In the attached example I created a Form.
On tha form I put a GroupBox Containing a DataGridView.
I am trying to set, at Design time, the ColumnHeadersDefaultCellstyle Font of the grid, defining the Font, the size and the style (Bold). After saving the project or running it, The Font properties of the grid headers are changed to the Font properties of the containing
GroupBox.
Why is that so? How can I set, at Design Time, a different font for the Grid Column headers and the GroupBox?
To demostrate the problm - Try to modify the Font of the grid headers, in the attached example,
to "Bold" "Size 12", Run the application and see the result.
Dim Comp = From C In db.Table1 _
Select C.Completed, C.Taken, C.Namne
Datagridview1.DataSource = Comp
Am using the Entity Framework and Columns Completed and Taken are of bit Datatype. When the query results are displayed in the datagridview, these bit columns are returned as of ColumnType Textbox - so i get a Datagridview textbox column with true or false string values.
I want to display Completed and Taken as Checkbox columns (either ticked for True or un-ticked for false) but ofcourse i can't do this in EditColumn dialogue because the Datagridview is unbound.
how can i change this in code at runtime
I have a DataGridView (dgv) on a Windows form (VB.NET) which is bound to a datatable. One of the bound columns is a an ID (Foreign Key) to another datatable. All I want to do is Hide the ID column and populate an unbound column with the Name (ParmName) for the user. I searched the foreign value in the datatable and retrieved the information. I set the Value of the cell in the Datarow. All works well, but does not display. The cell accepts the value...I can even Debug.Print the values to the console. They are there just nothing displaying in DataGridView. Nothing odd about DataGridView. Should be straight forward...

I have an unbound datagridview that I populate with data. When the user clicks on the column head the datagridview is sorted - which is fine for alphabetic fields but I have a column that contains numeric fields and goes from -100 to +100. This is sorted incorrectly by the number (all the 1s first then all the 2s and so on, ignoring the minus sign). How do I get it to sort my column numerically?
View 9 RepliesLet's say that I have a DataGridView(myDGV) which I populate as follows:
'...
Dim strSQL as String = "SELECT col1,col2,col3 FROM myTable"
'....
myda.Fill(myDtb)
myDGV.DataSource = myDtb.
'The above code fills the DGV with data from the underlying query
'of the DataTable.
'Supposing that I want to add an unbound Column to the end of the DGV which appears together with the data returned by the query, is it possibe?
I am populating a datagridview from a datatable and that is working fine. I wish to add some calculated columns from data in the datatable. At first, I did this by adding these to the table, but that makes it difficult to update the Access database. These lines are commented out.Right now, AWt and DOF are not working. The values are there when I step through (lines 85-87), but the values are not put in the grid. The value of NWt is placed in the grid as it should be.Lines 236 through 254 set up the new unbound columns. 85-87 should populate them.

I have a DataGridView bound to a binding source. I have also, however, added an unbound column in which I plan on putting numbers calculated from the bound columns. The problem is, Any time I edit my unbound column (on any row), the value doesn't stay. If I programmatically edit the values, they never show up. If I type in the cell, then upon hitting enter or clicking outside of the cell, whatever I typed disappears.
View 1 RepliesI have a form and in that form is a datagridview listing information from a table in a database. The datagrid is setup as read only and the user is unable to move the columns around. The purpose of the datagrid is to allow the user to select entire records and press a menu button that does some action on them. To make it easier to use the very first column in an unbound data column that I fill with a number representing the row count so 1,2,3,4.... this makes it easier for the user to count how many rows he has selected.
The problem is that the unbound column moves to the last column in the datagrid at random times.This only happens in development not after the application has been deployed. Its annoying because lets say I go in to add a label or change a menu item on the form that has nothing to do with the datagrid I have to make sure that the unbound column hasn't moved.Has anyone else had this problem mixing bound and unbound columns in a datagridview.
I add several unbound columns to datagridview,i've succeeded to copy data from other datagridview to this unbound dgv and also got save database from unbound datagridview to database using tableadapter.insert worked .But i can't figure out how to display the data back into the datagridview with existing column..I've tried using this way :
Try
Dim cn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection_
("Provider=SQLNCLI;Server=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=salon;Trusted_Connection=yes;")
cn.Open()

I'm trying to read rows in a DataGridView and the following error is thrown up. The DataGridView was filled from an Excel Sheet with a column of currency.

I have an unbound datagrid control I am using to store inspection information. The program records the information from the user, validates the values, and saves it into a database. It will then show the last inspection data in the datagridview. The user has the option of doublclicking a row and changing values and resaving the row. The number of rows per piece inspected varies, so that is why I used the grid to show the inspection data, however, they want to see a running total of each inspection point at the bottom of the grid so when they add the new values, it will update the running totals. I can see how to add a new column for a running total, but the layout requires the sums to be in the last row of the grid. I can add the row to the grid, but I need to make sure it stays at the bottom of the grid when I add a new row, and if possible freeze the row so it is always visible like excel. The program we are re-writting is excel based so this functionality is critical for the inspector to see the running totals for each inspection point.
View 3 RepliesI have created an Unbound DataGridView. It has has 4 Columns Name, Last Name, Picture, CheckBox. I would like to do change the checkbox's enabled state true or false (editable or not) at the time I add the row
Not its checked state :) and would also like to change image that is placed in the Image column cell during the add row.

i have a splitter control on tab 2, a grid and a scheduler control on tab 3..looks fine...i save it....close the form...reopen the form, and the controls are all resized and moved around on me....and not for the better.
wierd thing is that when i run the app, the controls are placed properly, but design time is totally f&*ked up.I know this one isn't me. is it the tab control? should i just do toggle buttons at the top and show/hide my own panels? this is just too freaky to deal with. is there an easy work around for this?
I have a datagridview with column names as dates.[code]....
View 8 RepliesI have a csv file and I import it to datagridview. Now I filter it using 2 datetimepickers. One for start and other for end.When click it must loop through the column names and must display only the columns which matches start date, range of columns between start and end date,enddate. please see the image attached.First image shows the datagridview when loaded from csv.second shows the desired output when filtered using datetimepickers.
View 1 RepliesUsing the walkthrough from [URL], I implemented a DatagridView in virtual mode, totally unbound, in VB 10 Express (we are talking WinForms).
I understand that CommitEdit (DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit) commits the current cell's contents to the data cache.
The example uses row-level commit, i.e. it pushes the values into a row buffer until the current row is left. Only then the row is added to (or updated in) the data store. That's exactly what I do, too.
Question -- how can I commit the current row programmatically without leaving it? (I want to commit the whole row, not just the current cell.)
If the user leaves the row, there is a RowValidating, RowValidated, RowEnter event sequence where the datastore update is taken care of. So one idea (currently my only one) was to simply re-set CurrentCell to Nothing, for example.
But I cannot just set the DataGridView's CurrentCell property to Nothing (or any cell outside of the current row) since I want to commit from within an event handler of a custom edit control created by a custom column, and I see an System.InvalidOperationException exception when setting CurrentCell there.
In fact, it is a tiny button right to a combo box, i.e. I create a DataGridViewComboBoxCell descendant which is a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn descendant's edit control. My special ComboBox cell adds a tiny button which should commit the current row. Unfortunately, that button's _Click event handler cannot change CurrentCell since DetachEditingControl throws the exception then.
Obviously, I must delay the CurrentCell re-assignment until the whole _Click event has been processed. Or what? How would I do that -- register a custom Windows message, SendMessage that one to me, and override the windows procedure of the form so it re-sets CurrentCell when this message is received? (Hello?)
There should be a rather easy way to let DataGridView commit all changes by firing the events that I handle to perform the datastore update, no?
I have a problem. I have created a control, Now whenever I am going to Drug that control on my form then a error popup will appear that says "Failed to create component 'XXXXXXXXX'." System.IO.FileLoadException: A strongly named assembly required. HRESULT: 0x80131044 Is there any facility available in .NET for design time debugging Means If I drug a control on form then I will allow me to debug the control.
View 1 RepliesI created a custom control (inherited from a panel). Then I created some other custom control (textboxes)
I add the panel control to the form, then I add some custom textboxes inside the panel.
Now, if I remove the panel, the custom textboxes don't move. I think, because the custom panel control isn't the parent control of the custom textboxes.
How can I modify my custom textbox class, if I add the textbox to a form, to a panel, to a container, it should have that container as parent.
How do i edit the column header of the GridView control on a web form? I have added a Table to DataSource as:
Me.gvSearchBrandList.DataSource = ds.Tables(0)
in here "gvSearchBrandList" GridView control But the GridView control display the column headers of the Table in the database. But how do i edit those column name in the GridView?
setting the default value for an integer attribute of a custom control seems to have stopped working. The following code adds the Maximum attribute to the design-time properties table, but the default value pops up as 0, not 99:
<System.ComponentModel.Browsable(True)> _
<System.ComponentModel.Category("Behavior")> _
<System.ComponentModel.Description("highest value possible")> _

I am using Visual Basic 2010 for a project.My project requires to place a TRANSPARENT button on top of an image (placed inside a picturebox). for that to work, i need to set the button's parent to the picturebox. Is there a way to do that in design time? I cannot find anything on the property tab. The reason i want to set it on design time is because my project will have a motherload of buttons and it will a pain to code the parent change....
View 3 RepliesThis is a related to my last post, but not enough to make sense as a tag on question.I have a collection(of myClass) that is exposed as a public property in a user control.When I add an item to the collection in code I would make the call collection.add(new myClass) and of course the constructor for myClass is called.When I add items to the collection via the design time menu the constructor for myClass is not called.... of it it is called, I can't see any evidence of it.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to make a simple User control that houses one collection of a class that I've made. After building the control All works as planned and then randomly when I try to go to the design time interface for the form I placed the control on I get an error page with the following:
To Prevent Possible data loss before loading the designer, the following errors must be resolved:(ignore and continue: which about half the time works and the control shows up and the other part of the time all of the controls on the page are missing)

After creating mylabel in the code of course.
