Set the datasource of a combobox in a visible form

Seb
I have a Windows.Form with two tabpages. I assign the datasource
property of the comboboxes of the second one when the user clicks on
the tab page. I want to be able to do this without having to hide and
show the whole form, because it gives me problems with datetimepickers
on the first page. the text property of the datetimepickers goes back
to the current date while the value property stays valid with the
bound data.

I may have already asked this one, but, Is there anyway of hiding the dropdown control button on a combobox until the field has focus? Because the values in the combobox can be between 5 charicters long and thirty charicters long, this poses the problem that when a five charicter string is selected, the button looks a mile away. I have the background of the combobox set to transparent, but the button still appears

Greetings. I have a form (frmDogs) that is invisible while a subsequent form (frmPeople) is visible. The visible form sets a value for a combobox (cboOwner) in the hidden form, makes the invisible form visible and then closes. When the newly visible form (frmDogs) appears the combo box (cboOwner) is displaying the correct information (set from the previous form). There is no indication that anything is wrong when I save the Dog...

When you use a bound combobox and you set its dropdown style to "dropdown" that allows you to enter text in the edit box. But if you enter anything other than a value in the current bound items collection, the .text property does not update. Furthermore, you can't easily trap an event to examine the new value if your program assigns it programmatically as opposed to someone typing it in and tabbing away from it. That is, TextChanged does...

What generally works is the ComboBox get's populated and the ComboBox shows itself when the appropriate column/row is selected. When the ComboBoxColumn isn't selected it...

I've modified a combobox class so that it has a ReadOnly property. When set to ReadOnly, the combobox can't be changed, but it doesn't appear gray. I called the new class ComboLockBox and I've placed them on a MDIChild form and they work great. The problem is, I got a timer that looks for mouse activity and when the mouse is idle for a set number of minutes, all MDIChild forms are hidden and the Logon form is displayed. When the user...

I have a ComboBox on my form, and I set it's DataSource to an ArrayList of custom objects. Everything loads fine, all the entries I initially loaded into the ArrayList appear in my ComboBox. However, while my program is running and I add a new object to that ArrayList - this ComboBox is not updating to reflect the change. I have gone so far as to try: clientList.Invalidate();

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
