vijay,
simply query to database and filled returned record in datatable and then add one by one or set combo box dataSource property to datatable
your question is not too specific. Try following link
Set combo box data source[^]

I don't understand what it is that you are trying to do.
You have not defined your problem in enough detail.
Why are you using a delegate? For example.
Without a more detailed and complete description of what it is you are trying to do, I doubt that anyone will be able to help you.

Hi,
Having worked as a VB6 programmer, and dealing mostly with events from forms and modules etc. I'm a little confused as to where to do exception handling with a class in .NET.
I have a class I've written that (amongst other things) sends a HttpWebRequest to a server and I want it to read the XML feed from the server. But where exactly do I handle the WebException that might occur? Should I put the try/catch into the actual class method that send the HttpWebRequest or should it be in the module code that calls the Function that will send the web request? See below for a brief example of what I mean.
Class MyClass
...
...
...
Sub GetXmlFromServer()
Try
' send request
Catch wex As System.Net.WebException
end try
End Sub
...
End Class
' in a module
Sub GetXml()
Dim mc as new MyClass()
mc.GetXmlFromServer()
End Sub
Or
Class MyClass
...
...
...
Sub GetXmlFromServer()
' send request
' etc etc
End Sub
...
End Class
' in a module
Sub GetXml()
Dim mc as new MyClass()
try
mc.GetXmlFromServer()
Catch wex As System.Net.WebException
End Try
End Sub
Personally I don't think I should put the exception handling in the class and that it should be handled in the sub/function (in a form or module) that calls the class method. But I'd like to know the
correct way to go about it.
Thanks 
Max

Simply put, you have to use the Try Catch clause inside the sub or function part of your code. Like you used it in both examples. In other words, you don't have to choose. You can have your cake and eat it too.
The nice thing about vb.net's try catch clauses is that you can use several in a row within the same sub/function, and even nest them:
Private Sub BlaBlaBla()
Try
'some code here
Try
'some other code here
Catch ex as Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString)
'and/or some code here
End Try
'and even more code here
Catch ex as Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString)
'and/or some code here
End Try
Try
'and just to make sure, some other code here
Catch ex as Exception
MsgBox(ex.ToString)
'and/or some code here
End Try
'etc, etc, etc.
End Sub
Generally speaking, it is better to use too many try catch clauses than too few.
In classes and modules, it is a good idea to use the application event log for error reporting (
Public appLog As New System.Diagnostics.EventLog("Application", ".", appTitle) somewhere at the top and then
appLog.WriteEntry(ex.ToString, EventLogEntryType.Error) in the catch clause.) or a StreamWriter.
Hope this helps you.

Thanks Johan.
I understand what you're saying, I'll use as many try/catch blocks as I can - better to be safe than sorry!
I actually have a VB6 exception handling class (outputs to a text file) that I converted to .NET but thanks for informing me about the Application Log, it's good to know about the built in capabilities.

Once you get a bit more accustomed to vb.net, you'll find that a lot of your old vb6 code is very cumbersome compared to its .net equivalent.
This is the log writing error handling sub that I use in one of my larger applications:
Public Sub EC(ByVal Err As Exception)
Try
Dim SW As New System.IO.StreamWriter("C:\error_log.txt", True)
SW.WriteLine(Err.ToString)
SW.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
appLog.WriteEntry(ex.ToString, EventLogEntryType.Error)
End Try
End Sub
Although ofcourse your class may contain less lines of code, I don't know...
If you have the use of an exchange server, you can even send yourself (or others) emails:
Public Shared Function ManualMail(ByVal oFrom As String, ByVal oSubject As String, ByVal oTo As String, ByVal oText As String, Optional ByVal oCC As String = "", Optional ByVal oBCC As String = "", Optional ByVal oAttachment As Object = Nothing) As Boolean
Dim mailmsg As New System.Web.Mail.MailMessage
With mailmsg
.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Html
.From = oFrom
.To = oTo
If Not oCC = "" Then .Cc = oCC
If Not oBCC = "" Then .Bcc = oBCC
.Subject = oSubject
.Body = oText
If Not oAttachment = Nothing Then .Attachments.Add(oAttachment)
End With
Try
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.SmtpServer = SmtpServerAddressHere 'example: mail.domain.com
System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail.Send(mailmsg)
Return True
Catch ex As Exception
appLog.WriteEntry(ex.ToString, EventLogEntryType.Error)
Return False
End Try
End Function
This one I actually also use in a class library.

I don't think there is a general answer to the question.
You need to think about what the class/sub should do if an exception occurs.
Can MyClass do anything meaningful to recover from the exception? If it can then it probably should handle it, if not then don't catch it. (You might want to catch it so you can add additional info to the message and then re-throw the exception.)
If you catch the exception in MyClass what will GetXml do? It won't know the exception happened (unless you re-throw it). The same is true in MyClass if GetXmlFromServer catches the exception.
This will tell you if you actually need exception handling and where it should happen.
You should not use the exception handling mechanism to control program flow, but I'm sure you will see lots of examples where this does happen.

Another question to ask is whether the caller is more likely to want to keep on with what it's doing despite the exception, or whether it will want to break out of any loop it's in. Personally I would think that in many situations the right approach would be to have routines take an error-function delegate which could throw an exception, silently swallow the error, or do something else. The try/do pattern isn't bad, but it provides no mechanism for distinguishing different types of failures nor for resolving them proactively.
Also, note that most of the time when you catch an exception and rethrow it, you should either use the word "throw" without an argument (if you don't want to change the exception type), or you should make a new exception that contains the original one as an InnerException.

I have a windows service coded in vb.net running.This service is controlling several devices simultaneously.Now i want to add another device to the system.How is it possible to do this without stopping the service or changing the code?Can it be done dynamically?
|

You're going to have to change the code anyway, just to add this kind of support to your service.
Your service will have to have some kind of interface to allow either polling some file or registry location to see if there are changes that need to be made, or, you can have another application send changes to the running service through Windows Communication Foundation or .NET Remoting (.NET 1.x).
Basically, if you didn't write this feature into your existing service, you're going to have to rewrite the code for the service. There is no "magic" ability of services that does this for you.

I have this vb project i did before with crystal reports and sql activex controls and now it keeps giving me errors when compiling it again
Can anybody compile it for me and tells me what steps did he make
and send me the compiled version of the project and the steps
Thanks
http://rapidshare.com/files/193910312/DONIA_SYSTEM_SRC.rar[^]
and please It's important to me point out the error and have a compiled version
just send me the comiled version via rapidshare link

Yes, I'm sure your bosses would expect you to be able to do this. What is it about your level of skill that is preventing you doing this yourself? A modern compiler will produce very helpful error messages pinpointing the source of every error. Read them, understand them, correct the errors and recompile. Repeat until done!

well it would be easy if not i was lost in all these modules
i used to just include the crystal reports and sql dll libraries and ocx files
now i cann't remember NOTHING
it just needs some activex includes vbefore compiling
just download the source code and try to compile it ,Give it a try
|
|
|
|

That's not going to happen because whoever compiles this needs to have all of the control and libraries you're using (which you say you've used a ton of them) installed on their own machine in order to compile it.
|
|
|
|
|
just take a look at it it's not that big
try and tell me the steps to have the libraries missing
it's not that big
it's easy u have the source compile it and it will tell u what's missing
send me the compiled version and the steps u did
|
|
|
|
|
Again, that's not going to happen. I am not going to expose myself to a lawsuit because I looked at code that IS proprietary to the company you work for AND BELONGS TO THAT COMPANY.
Besides, this is only a single compile. What happens when you have to fix other bugs int he code and STILL can't get the code to compile??
|
|
|
|
|
How the fuck do these people get a contract anyways? Do you know what I would do if someone I contracted work to exposed the source code I was paying them to develop for me to the public? on rapidshare??
|
|
|
|
|
its my code
i developped that code
13 years agooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
My code
just i had a f***en virus destroyed me exe's
and so come on People
|
|
|
|
|
So what??
I'm still not going to take that chance.
And even less so now that you say you don't take precautions against viruses. You've pretty much guaranteed noone is going to touch any code you post.

thanx i just finished compiling it
the error was the sql database threads
i guess u r right
thanx for ur kind care
|

LOL, best post ever! But I will do this for you, it will cost you 550 British Pounds per day!

No one here will do your job for you. what company is going to be happy that you disclosed their entire application in it's source for others to look at?? You're exposing the entire business logic that people paid you to create????
