I am able to load a dataset with records from a sql database. I then loop through the data using a for loop, this works fine. As part of the loop I would like to update the contents of a textBox.text property. The problem is that it will only update the text field when the loop is complete. How can I update the text content for each record in the loop? I hope this makes since.

View 2 RepliesI am trying to bind data from a text box on my form to a field in my database table. First of all I have created a DataSet, BindingSource and Table Adapter in the forms Design view, but I am having from there. Under the properties of each text box I have set the DataBindings (Text) to the field in the table under the forms instance and DataSet rather than the Projects Data Sources. I am very rusty at Visual Studio 2005 and that is all I have to work with.

View 9 RepliesI'm a little confused about checking values in a database. What I want to do is see if a tuple such as the following exists:

The invoice_num is not null, it's blank: " ". What I want is to find if such an entry exists, where the invoice_num is " " and update it with a number entered into a textbox.

I'm using an access database in a program that I'm making for my school, the user is able to select an item from the menu, then it sends it to a list box, there is also a textbox to put a quantity of how much of the item you want. I have a field in my database called Amout Ordered, I want to update it with the amount of each item ordered, and I can't figure out how.
View 1 RepliesI have a system whereby I have a SQLite database with around 200+ records. I basically need to cycle through all rows, get the value from one of the columns, perform an algorithm, then re-insert the value.
I know I could do this in a long engrossed way, by getting all data, updating in arrays and such, and then re-inserting via tons of sql queries, however this seems a bit slow and I am sure there is some better way of doing it.
i found this code to update a property on an active directory entry:
If user.Properties.Contains("title") Then
user.Properties("title")(0) = employeeTitle.SelectedItem.Text
Else
user.Properties("title").Add(employeeTitle.SelectedItem.Text)
End If
I understand it except for the ("title)(0). why is this a double index array. what does the (0) do?
I know that when I add a record to a table through a binding source using a binding navigator - it completely handles the IDENTITY PK (it's bound to a textbox and you can see it immediately).
Now I'm trying to do this differently in another part of the program - here I only have a BINDING SOURCE - that's bound to a DATAGRIDVIEW.
I put a new record into the DGV like this

View 5 RepliesI have two forms....Mainform is filled with controls that are databound to a datasource.....then I have a child form that is used to edit data from parent form.......the data that is displayed on the child form uses the Filter() method of the binding source to display data only for the customer selected......
The child form has the standard OK and CANCEL buttons set up as dialog result.......after I edit the content in child form, the changes are displayed on the child form correctly......but when closing the child form and going back to the parent form the changes dont appear there unless I restart the application.....I also tried adding the tableadapter.update/fill method in the 'OK' dialog result event handler and it still doesnt work......
How can I make the changes take effect on the parent form without restarting the application?
I've created the beginnings of my new web application, but I am often coming up against the issue that ASP.NET renames elements IDs or in the case of form fields, their names.I have a form which is basically a sales system. It is essentially made up of two User Controls, one is a form for Customer Details (name, address etc) and the second is a form for the customer's purchases, it consists of a number lines dynamically created by Javascript created as you list the items the customer is purchasing. Both these sections are User Controls because they are to be used for other areas of the system where this data will need to be recalled/re-entered.When the USer Control is loaded, the field which contains the Customers' Name is renamed "m$mainContent$customerForm$name" I understand where this comes from, "m" is the ID of my Master Page, "mainContent" is the main Content Placeholder and "customerForm" is the name of the User Control.
In fact, in my case, this will always remain the same on all forms, so it is relative easy to overcome... but... suppose it wasn'tI can see there are ways I could deal with this with Javascript, but the form doesn't need an AJAX submit, a normal Post will do fine for this, so when I open up the recieving page I want to call Request.Form("name")% to save the customer's name into the database, but of course I really need Request.Form("m$mainContent$customerForm $name")%How would I dynamically extract those prefixes from the posting form to ensure that if I rename anything or use it in a different scenario, the problem will not break it?I am using .NET 2.0, so can't use Static Client.

View 6 RepliesI am working on a Windows Forms application in visual basic and one of the features is that it is supposed to access www.usps.com/zip4 and fill in the fields and then display the page in a window with auto-filled fields for the user to edit and submit. Basically I instantiate a WebBrowser, I find each of the fields (two text and a drop-down list) using the webbrowser.Document.GetElementById(id).setAttribute("value", newvalue). I do this for each text field and for the drop down I used setAttribute("value", val) and setAttribute("selectedIndex", index). After I'm done, I attach this webBrowser to a form that I created using form.Controls.Add(webBrowser) and then I call form.showDialog(Me). I have been getting really erroneous behavior. First of all, when this function is called the first time, all the text fields show up ok, but the selection field stays at zero. Neither changing the value nor the selectedIndex changes the actual selection in the drop down list when it's displayed. Then, if I exit this window and have the function called again, all the text is gone and the drop down list appears to be updated with the correct selection; however, it can't be because when I fill in the information and click submit, I get an error saying that I must select a state.
View 2 RepliesI've got a program which acts as a schedule for sporting events.The program allows users to fill in event details and they get saved into a directory for the selected date and venue, and in it are text files with the details, and then on another page is a listbox containing all of these directories so that the user can view saved events, and the page retrieves the details from the text files and displays them how I wanted it to.BUT, my 'update' feature just will not work.
basically, I want the user to be able to change the details and press 'update' which will then write the new information to the relevant text files, BUT i get this error in debug mode:
The process cannot access the file 'C:Events PlannerSaturday, May 29, 2010 testvenue.txt' because it is being used by another process.
The code I'm using is below, and from what I've learned, and how I've already coded this program, it should work right?
Code:
Dim venueReaderUpdate As System.IO.StreamReader
venueReaderUpdate = _
My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileReader(ListBox1.SelectedItem + "venue.txt")

I'm having a problem with my forms. Basically I have one form that adds,deletes,updates transactions that are made when a registered member makes a request. Doing this then gets saved in the database under a transaction table. I then have another form which then calculates my transactions based on when the member returns the DVD or CD. However, if say for example I wish to delete a transaction record, the form that does the calculation of the fines doesn't update itself.How can I solve this? If im able to create a refresh button on the fines form wou if so how will it work as my form contains 1 combo box , 5 text boxes and 1 date picker(however the date picker is not linked to the database)?
1)This coding here is to do with "Adding,updating, deleting and saving Transaction":
Public Class PDL_Add_Transaction_Form

We are designing a toolbar to be used in PowerShape that was originally written in VB6. We are beginning the conversion to VB.net and for some reason, when we size the new form that is the actual toolbar, we can see the size change in Design Mode but when we run the debugger it does NOT show the newly sized form. We managed to get the Width to update after clearing the Debug and Release directories but not the Height... And even then it only works once then we have to go back in and clear the directories again in order for the width to update.

I have a VB.NET 2010 app I am writing that does a lot of work on a RS485 bus in 2 seperate threads. These threads are started as soon as the app is opened and run as long the app is open. I would like to have the threads update labels on the main (and only) form every so often based on what's happening on the serial bus. I know it involves invokes and delegates but I haven't found a straight forward answer on how to implement it.
