You just need to databind the control again, or manually add the item ( you may not be able to manually add to a databound item ). The control does not watch the source, it only binds when you tell it to

I doubt that the fact that your lists are generic is the cause of your problem.

Take a look at this thread[^], from a while ago, which basically had the same problem. Unfortunately any code is C# but you may be able to get enough from the textual parts to apply it to your situation.

If not and you are not sufficiently familiar with C# to use it as it is, please post back. Smile | :)

I was wondering how simple/difficult it would be to modify a control such as a panel so that lines can be drawn to connect multiple panels (or any other control) together.

I suppose the best example i can think of is the Entity Relationship tool available in MS Access.

Here each 'panel' represents a table and contains a list of fields, each field can be linked to fields within other panels with a line.

The issue with this example is that the lines connecting the 'panels' are not particularly smart in that they are unable to navigate around objects.

I want to create a panel, that can connect to other panels with a line which does not get drawn behind or over any other panel that gets in the way.

The line should figure out a route around any objects in the way.

maybe it would keep things simple if the lines could only be vertical or horizontal.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions on where i should start.

if you are using windows form then add a project for "WindowsControlLibrary" then inherit the windows panel control and modify according to your needs

Have a look at the followings links also ;

Hi all,

I have a job of separating the file name from its extension and wtitting it into a text file.
I have succeeded in that, but I find that there are few files with many separations/partitions in the file name. say for example: aaa_bbb.01.0101.pdf or aaa.01.0101.pdf

Thanks in advance.

This writes a line. As it says. So, instead, just write the text, not a line, and add a tab after it.

That will only work for pdf files and only if the extension is lowercased. The better thing to do would be to replace this:

Dim posn As Integer, i As Integer
Dim fName As String

posn = 0
'find the position of the last "\" character in filename
For i = 1 To Len(flname)
    If (Mid(flname, i, 1) = "\") Then posn = i
Next i
fName = Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings.Right(flname, Len(flname) - posn)

with this:

fName = System.IO.Path.GetFilenameWithoutExtension(flname)

Then you will be guaranteed to never get the extension no matter what it is. Also, you can do without the extra temporary variable here:

Dim words As String = fName
Dim split As String() = words.Split(New [Char]() {" "c, ","c, "."c, ":"c, "_"c, "-"c})

because calling Split (or any other method) on a string does not change the original string.

You have one variable and you set it to each textbox in turn. You need to create a variable for each textbox. You should buy a pretty basic book and work through it, if you don't understand that.
