I am trying to move over vb6 code that worked through arrays of comboboxes.I have a panel that has 18 comboboxes that each need to be populated the same.I first clear the combo boxes and it loops through them, but keeps going until it gets an error.Likewise on sFillLotNO, it adds the first foundrow to each but bombs out when it tries to get the 19th.[code]

Public Class combodata
Private _id As Long
Private _description As String

how can I return the items as an array. Is converting to an array the best way? I will need to populate a combobox with the returned result
how you populate cascading comboboxes? I have one combobox on one form, from which I'm trying to populate another combobox on another form. The first combobox contains Locations while the second combobox contains offices for whichever location is selected in the first combobox. I would like it to work as follows: user clicks on first combobox to select a location, and then the second combobox lists all the offices for that location.As of right now, the second combobox is just displaying the first office that is in the first record for the respective database table it is pulling from.
View 2 RepliesI have a form that lists all of the clients in a DataGridView and when I click on a column that is a Link I want the data to populate into the form I use to capture. My problem is that when I click on the link all the TextBoxes on the form are filled correctly but my ComboBoxes are not.[code]
View 1 RepliesHow I can populate a combobox (combobox2) based on the selection made from another combobox (combobox1)? They are on different forms. Combobox1 lists locations, while combobox2 lists offices for each location. I would like it to work so that when the user clicks on combobox1 and makes a selection, the 2nd form loads with combobox2 showing all the offices for the selected location.
View 6 RepliesI am developing a Windows application in Visual Studio 2005, V2.0 using VB.NET. I am coding part of an Emergency Response Information System. On my form, I have two combo boxes (cboBaseStationID and cboPriority). I am trying to populate the datagrid with records from my database based on what is selected in both comboboxes.
For the first combobox, the user selects a name so the datagrid must only show records with that name. For the second combobox, this is a little more complicated. There are four emergency priorities in the combobox that the user can choose - 1, 2, 3, 4. In the database, there are different response teams (to be dispatched to these emergencies) and each response team has a grade of either 1, 2 or 3. [Code]
I have four comboboxes in my Ist form related to course as.c_type,c_stream,c_major,c_nature.......combobox c_type contains the type of courses like degree,diploma, PG etc,similarly "c_stream" contains stream like engg,medical etc. further c_major contains all courses like computer engg(CE),mechnical(ME), physiotherapy etc. and last c_nature has course nature whether regular or private or distance.Now situation is when i select diploma from c_type, corresponding options must be populate in c_stream like engg. And now when i select engg., CE or ME must be there in c_major combobox .Same is for C_nature.The all 4 combobox must show "please select" text on form load event..i also have 2nd form where i have same combobxs. so is there any way to call the same code without again writing that to 2nd form.
View 1 RepliesI have the following problem, a table "table1" contains 10000 telephone numbers, this table is source for 5 combo box contained in a form, I need that when I select the first tel N in the first combo, this number is not any more available for the combo 2, when I select the second number in the second combo, the first 2 numbers of the table 1 are not any more available for the combo 3 etc. Every record (in form) contains 5 combo. The Tel N selected into the combo are source for other table called "table2". I've try with all the type of query between table 1 and table 2, and use the result as source for the combo, I've try with IIf but this is works only for the first combo.
View 3 RepliesI have two combo boxesthat use the same collection for their datasource. The data member and value member are also the same properties. When the form loads, and I select an item in one of the combo boxes, the same item is then selected in the other combo box. I want the combo boxes to work separately. Do I need to have two different collections, even though they would have the same data in them?
cboInboardKnife.DataSource = cKnives
cboInboardKnife.DisplayMember =
"Name"
cboInboardKnife.ValueMember =
"ToolID"
cboOutboardKnife.DataSource = cKnives
cboOutboardKnife.DisplayMember =
"Name"
cboOutboardKnife.ValueMember =
"ToolID"
I want to maintain a list of potential ComboBox values over multiple executions of my program, and to use that list as the DataSource on multiple ComboBoxes. I also want changes made to the DataSource to propagate over all of the ComboBoxes already existing in the application.
Can someone recommend what type of object I should use as my DataSource, as My.Settings objects don't seem to support generic list objects.
Also, along with that recommendation, can I also ask for suggestions as to how to propagate the updates of the collection to all ComboBoxes? I would imagine I need a collection type which raises events when its contents change, but I can't think of any, and in any case do not know which are compatible with My.Settings.
I have a program issue I am trying to work on. I have multiple comboboxes(12 total) on a form.I am attempting to update some settings from what ever the user selects from the combo boxes. I am trying to keep the code as small as possible, so I thought about having all the comboboxes have similar names only different by a number being changed at the end. (ex: cbo_1, cbo_2, cbo_3, etc...)And using a For next loop to advance through each combobox and update the settings as the for next loop advances.(This might be a stupid way of doing it, but its the first idea that came to mind.)

I have 16 comboboxes with a naming convention of:
c1d2
c2d2
c3d2
c4d2
c16d2
These will all contain the same items and I need to add them at runtime. I know how to loop through the controls, but not sure how to make sure I'm only editing the correct comboboxes. (I will have to do this for 2 more sets of comboboxes with similar naming conventions as well)
This post is a continuation of my other post concerning 'List(of) with multiple comboboxes refill problem.'. I threw the list overboard and began anew with a Dataview.
So far I (finally) managed to get 2 comboboxes (will be more, but if it works for 2...) loaded with the same data using different dataviews (DataView1 & DataView2) so I can select a value from each combobox without the other following the selection.
But now I want to filter out the selected value from the other combobox.
This also works.
The only thing is this: If I select in combobox1 the value 3, and select in combobox2 the value 4, combobox1 will change to the value 2.
If I select in combobox1 the value 2, and select in combobox2 the value 1, combobox1 will change to the value 3.
It works also the other way arround. I can't seem to get my hands around the problem..
Does somehow the index of the items in the combobox play's part? I don't use the selectedIndex, so from my point of view it can't be..
The code I use:

I'm trying to make a program in which I can import an excel file, read the whole thing and save it in another format. So far so good: can import the file, read it, skip first line or not etc.But.. Now I've been thinking about a sort option.What if the column order of the excel file is in another order than the export file must be in. In stead of opening the excel file and rearrange the columns manually, I would like to sort it in the program. Just for the sake of trying to make it work and gain experience
So, i read the first line which contains the column names and put them in several comboboxes where I can make a selection. No problem here.Now, the selection of combobox1 has to be removed from the other comboboxes and so on, to avoid double selections on one column. That's where my listOld comes in. Everytime a selection is made in a combobox, a sub is called to create the listOld and create the listNew (which contains items you can still choose from).As I make more selections the listOld gains more items and the ListNew grows shorter.But here comes the part where I'm puzzled.In the part "refill the comboboxes" (bottom part) when I disable "cmb2.Items.Clear()" the listOld (previous selected items) contains all selected items correctly.

I have created a form with three comboboxes. means
FirstNameComboBox
MiddleNameComboBox
LastNameComboBox
All fields are select ( name ) from a "CustomerName" table. "CustomerName" table is have more than ten thousand records. I am use three binding sources its worked great but it is very slow bcz three comboboxes are filled data on form loading time. I am using visual studio 2010 (visual basic).
I have multiple combox boxes,
A B C
Combobox B has items Fruit, Veg, Dairy
Combobox C needs to contain 3 list and depending on what value is selected in Combo Box B.
For example,
If I select Veg in Combo Box B, I would like to have a drop down list containing "tomatoes, lettuce, onion,..........."
If I select Dairy in Combo Box B, I would like to have a drop down list containing "Milk, Cheese...................."
this is a subset of a previously posted problem, I have narrowed down my issue and am reposting a question from this thread: [URL] I have apparently confused the compiler by renaming some comboboxes in Visual Basic .net express? (See relevant code below) I think the confusion is in who should handle what, with two routines named with variations of ComboBox1 and one handling the other ( it confuses me just trying to interpret it mentally):

I have a form with 4 comboboxes and a button. The first combobox is enabled, but the rest of the controls are disabled. When the form is opened I fill the first combobox (cbxMethod) with a datatable. When the user selects something in cbxMethod the next combobox (cbxStudy) will be filled and so on. When the last combobox (cbxAnalyte) has a selected value I want to enable the button and give it focus so the user can move forward with the program. I basically want to force the user to move from one combobox to the other, until all are filled.I am currently using the SelectionValueChange event, but this event only fires when the user changes the value with their mouse or hits the Enter key, not when the user hits the Tab key.

View 1 RepliesSay I have three lists containing multiple objects. Lets also assume they each contain the same number of items. [code]...
Now say I have a dataGridView that I have defined as having three columns. Is there a way to assign the contents of each of the lists to each of the three columns (e.g. column 1 = myList1, column 2 = myList2, etc.) without iterating through each of the lists? I know I could define a dataTable, create the columns, and iterate through each of the lists...then associate the dataTable to the dataGridView's dataSource. However, I don't want to iterate through the lists since in my real application, these lists are large and the iteration would take too long. I'm just wondering how to assign these lists to a column in a dataTable in bulk.
I need to populate listbox datavaluefield with multiple field. The value will be coming to datatable - (dataset).

View 1 Replieson the form I use one combobox with Data Bound items, Data source, Display member & Value member. Besides this combobox I have textbox with multiline turned ON. My code should write values from specific table in Textbox when I sellect ID on the combobox. Actually this code works but not in a way I want Me.TextBox2.Text = ComboBox2.SelectedValue
I would like to populate texbox from other columns as well. For my app I need one texbox in which I can see five lines of data, Company name, Address line1 & Address line2 & Address line3 & Address line4 . It's important to get data from different columns and each column in a new line.
My screen tends to seize for a few seconds while the list boxes are populated.I moved the call to the List Populate procedure to the form's shown event.This improved the performance slightly but not enough.Is there a method whereby I can ensure the form is fully loaded and displayed before the lists are populated?
