In my UserControl I have several classes and some of which are Public because the UITypeEditor requires them
to be Public when using the editor to add members to my collection during design time in the IDE. Not a problem
there but when I add my UC to a test project all the Public classes are added as "separate" controls in the toolbox.
Is there a way to limit what is exposed in the toolbox other then making the classes Private or Friend?
Thanks for any help.

I got the answer on another forum.

Public Class MyClass

End Class

How do you format DateTime values in a comboBox to display the date only without the time ("mm/dd/yyyy") in the text box as well as in the list. The ComboBox is bound to a datetime field in MS Access (Jet.OLEDB.4.0) ?
Thanks very much.

Create an Internet shortcut
Unlike regular LNK shortcut, which contain data in binary file, Internet shortcut files are just text files in this format:
[InternetShortcut]
URL=www.domain.com
Thus it is simple to programmatically create an Internet shortcut that, when double-clicked, will load the default browser and have it point to the specified URL. Here is a reusable routine that does it all:
' Create an internet shortcut
'
' when double-clicked, this shortcut will
' load the default browser and point it to
' the specified URL page
Sub CreateInternetShortcut(ByVal FileName As String, ByVal URL As String)
Dim fnum As Integer
' an Internet shortcut is just a two-line text file
fnum = FreeFile
Open FileName For Output As #fnum
Print #fnum, "[InternetShortcut]"
Print #fnum, "URL=" & URL
Close #fnum
End Sub

I was not sure if you were using OLEDB or ODBC so I did it in OLEDB.
Private Sub cmdFindPrimary_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdFindPrimary.Click
Try
Dim ConnString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=V:\VBScratchPad\test.mdb;"
Dim cn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(ConnString)
cn.Open()
Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter("Select * from Test", cn)
Dim ds As New DataSet("TESTING")
da.FillSchema(ds, SchemaType.Mapped)
For i As Integer = 0 To ds.Tables(0).PrimaryKey.GetUpperBound(0)
Console.WriteLine(ds.Tables(0).PrimaryKey(i).ColumnName)
Next
Catch ex As ApplicationException
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString())
End Try
End Sub

Not sure why this is but I found a solution to you problem
For i = 0 To ds.Tables(0).PrimaryKey.GetUpperBound(0)
ComboBox1.Items.Add(ds.Tables(0).PrimaryKey(i).ColumnName())
Next
it seems that when filling the schema you cannot refer to the table by its name but only by index number or the value "Table"

I have a asp.net datagrid which has a datatable as the datasource. The grid's last row must must always be empty(easy part). My problem is a have to load a dynamic dropdown list to a column in the last row in the grid, i can do that but every time i click on the list it disappears. Problem no.2 i need to display a datetime picker dynamically in the last row of the grid as well but the calendar control is just too big. The code to do all of this is in the ItemDataBound
All help is appreciated

Hi,
I would like to use the F1 and F2 key to set the focus between 2 grids in the form.
Lets say the cursor focus is in DBgrid1, on hitting F1 I want the focus to shift to Dbgrid2.
And again on hiting F2 I want the focus to go back to DBgrid1.
Here is a piece of my code but wont work.
It does not give me an error mssg but wont fire.
If I change it to DbGrid2.Focus = True then I get an error mssg.
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles MyBase.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.F2 Then
DBGrid2.Item(0, 0).Focus = True
'Dbgrid2.Focus = True
End If
End Sub
|
|
|
|
|
try uncommending 'Dbgrid2.Focus = True or using enabled or visible instead. They may accomplish somthing acceptable without the fuss

There are two problems in here, first, when I click the aImageButton, it didn't refresh to the update one. The contactView() in ImageButtonClickHandler not working. Second, IN ContactViewClickHandler, it opens a new forms to edit the info, after this window close, how to update the newest data and reload the dataReader?

The DataReader object returns table rows in a "forward-only" manner. Meaning you can't rewind it and re-read the row that it just returned. The only way to get it to go backwards is to destroy the current DataReader object and create a new one, which will start returning rows from the beginning of the table again.

where and how to destroy the current dataReader in my app?
Lisa

In your code, the DataReader that you create in the ContactView function is destroyed when execution reaches the end of the function. A new one is created and destroyed every time you execute ContactView.
In your code, though, you have no way of destroying all the controls you made so you can create new ones with the updated data. I get the feeling that your code IS getting the updated values from the database, but since you never destroyed the controls with the old data, the new controls your creating are being created BEHIND the controls you already have, and are therefore not visible.
IMHO, you've really got to use a DataGrid for this. You'll end up getting the functionality you want with about half the lines code that you've already written, and have yet to write more to get it to really work.
