  • Populating ComboBoxDataColumn items and values

    - by MarceloRamires
    I have a "populate combobox", and I'm so happy with it that I've even started using more comboboxes. It takes the combobox object by reference with the ID of the "value set" (or whatever you want to call it) from a table and adds the items and their respective values (which differ) and does the job. I've recently had the brilliant idea of using comboboxes in a gridview, and I was happy to notice that it worked JUST LIKE a single combobox, but populating all the comboboxes in the given column at the same time. ObjComboBox.Items.Add("yadayada"); //works just like ObjComboBoxColumn.Items.Add("blablabla"); But When I started planning how to populate these comboboxes I've noticed: There's no "Values" property in ComboBoxDataColumn. ObjComboBox.Values = whateverArray; //works, but the following doesn't ObjComboBoxColumn.Values = whateverArray; Questions: 0 - How do I populate it's values ? (I suspect it's just as simple, but uses another name) 1 - If it works just like a combobox, what's the explanation for not having this attribute ? -----[EDIT]------ So I've checked out Charles' quote, and I've figured I had to change my way of populating these bad boys. Instead of looping through the strings and inserting them one by one in the combobox, I should grab the fields I want to populate in a table, and set one column of the table as the "value", and other one as the "display". So I've done this: ObjComboBoxColumn.DataSource = DTConfig; //Double checked, guaranteed to be populated ObjComboBoxColumn.ValueMember = "Code"; ObjComboBoxColumn.DisplayMember = "Description"; But nothing happens, if I use the same object as so: ObjComboBoxColumn.Items.Add("StackOverflow"); It is added. There is no DataBind() function. It finds the two columns, and that's guaranteed ("Code" and "Description") and if I change their names to nonexistant ones it gives me an exception, so that's a good sign. -----[EDIT]------ I have a table in SQL Server that is something like code  |  text —————    1    | foo    2    | bar It's simple, and with other comboboxes (outside of gridviews) i've successfully populated looping through the rows and adding the texts: ObjComboBox.Items.Add(MyDataTable.Rows[I]["MyColumnName"].ToString()); And getting every value, adding it into an array, and setting it like: ObjComboBox.Values = MyArray; I'd like to populate my comboboxColumns just as simply as I do with comboboxes.

  • Changing styling of DataGridViewComboBoxCell from DropDownList to DropDown?

    - by John at CashCommons
    (This question is narrower in scope than this question I asked earlier.) Say I have a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn, and want to switch the style of the ComboBox control between DropDownList and DropDown (mainly for the text field editing capability). I'd like to do this on a row-by-row basis (at the DataGridViewComboBoxCell level). How would I do that programatically? Or maybe a different way of asking: How do I access the ComboBox control given an object of type DataGridViewComboBoxCell? (I'm in VB 2005.) Thanks as always.

  • Populate DataGridViewComboBoxColumn runtime

    - by ghiboz
    Hi all! I have this problem: I have a datagridview that reads the data from a db and I wish, for an integer column use a combobox to choose some values... I modified the column using DataGridViewComboBoxColumn type and after, on the init of the form this: DataTable dt = new DataTable("dtControlType"); dt.Columns.Add("f_Id"); dt.Columns.Add("f_Desc"); dt.Rows.Add(0, "none"); dt.Rows.Add(1, "value 1"); dt.Rows.Add(2, "value 2"); dt.Rows.Add(3, "value 3"); pControlType.DataSource = dt; pControlType.DataPropertyName = "pControlType"; pControlType.DisplayMember = "f_Desc"; pControlType.ValueMember = "f_Id"; but when the program starts (after this code) this message appears:

  • DataGridView with row-specific DataGridViewComboBoxColumn contents in C# Windows Forms 3.5

    - by XXXXX
    So I have something like the following data structure (constructors omitted) class Child { public string Name { get; set; } public int Age { get; set; } } class Parent { public string Name { get; set; } public List <Child> Children { get; private set; } // never null; list never empty public Child FavoriteChild { get; set; } // never null; always a reference to a Child in Children } List < Parent > Parents; What I want to do is show a DataGridView where each row is a Parent from Parent list. Each row should have two columns: a text box showing the parent's name and a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn containing that parent's children, from which the user can select the parent's favorite child. I suppose I could do the whole thing manually, but I'd like to do all this with more-or-less standard Data Binding. It's easy enough to bind the DataGridView to the list of parents, and easy enough to bind the selected child to the FavoriteChild property. The part that's giving me difficulty is that it looks like the Combo Box column wants to bind to one data source for all the combo-box's contents on all rows. I'd like each instance of the combo box to bind to the list of each parent's children. I'm fairly new to C#/Windows Forms, so I may well be missing something obvious. Or it could be that "you can't get there from here." It's not too tough to make a separate list of all the children and filter it by parent; I'm looking into that possibility right now. Is this feasible, or is there a better way?

  • In a Windows forms application, how can I setup can I set up the SelectedIndexChanged handle for 4 d

    - by Alex
    In a Windows forms application, within a DataGridView, I have 4 different DataGridCombobox controlshow can I set up the handler SelectedIndexChanged handler for the first combobox via the EditingControlShowing event. I added code for a second combobox but the SelectedIndexChanged didn't get wired up. Here's my code. Any advice would be appreciated. private ComboBox countryCombo; private EventHandler countryHandler; private ComboBox partCombo; private EventHandler partHandler; private void dataGridView2_EditingControlShowing(object sender, DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs e) { countryCombo = e.Control as ComboBox; if (countryCombo != null) { //remove any existing handler if there is one countryCombo.SelectedIndexChanged -= countryHandler; //add the new handler countryCombo.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(countryCombo_SelectedIndexChanged); } if (partCombo != null) { partCombo.SelectedIndexChanged -= partHandler; partCombo.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(partCombo_SelectedIndexChanged); } } private void countryCombo_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { ComboBox box = (ComboBox) sender; //MessageBox.Show(box.Items.Count.ToString()); int rowNum = dataGridView2.CurrentCell.RowIndex; dataGridView2.BeginEdit(false); dataGridView2.Rows[0].Cells[2].Value = "abcdef"; dataGridView2.EndEdit(); } private void dataGridView2_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e) { int cellColumn = e.ColumnIndex; //MessageBox.Show("Column is: " + cellColumn.ToString()); } private void partCombo_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { ComboBox box = (ComboBox)sender; string partNumber = box.SelectedValue as string; // ToDo: now we need to get the HTSUS from the database so we can //populate the field int rowNum = dataGridView2.CurrentCell.RowIndex; dataGridView2.BeginEdit(false); dataGridView2.Rows[0].Cells[2].Value = "abcdef"; dataGridView2.EndEdit(); } } Al D.
