listbox displaymember.. .

Hello,

I have a listbox which is bound to a datatable. I have set the displaymember and valuemember and all works well:
the user dbl clicks an item in the list box, I use the valuemember to retrieve some values. However, I would like
a label to display the displaymember value that was selected by the user. I am assuming this is a datarow(?).
How does one do this? Below is my code for populating the listbox:
Dim dtChgDept As New DataTable
daChgDept.Fill( dtChgDept)
lstChgDept.Valu eMember = "dept_id"
lstChgDept.Disp layMember = "dept_name"
lstChgDept.Data Source = dtChgDept
How can I display the text value of the displaymember "dept_name" on a label??

Thanks in advance!

Frankie

Working on a windows form, I am trying to bind a listbox to a dataset and want to set the displaymember & Valuemember properties of the listbox so that I can retrieve the selectedvalue from a selecteditem in the listbox. My code is very simple: lstReports.DataBindings.Clear() lstReports.DataSource = dsDataSet.Tables("Reports") lstReports.DisplayMember = "ReportDescription" lstReports.ValueMember = "ReportsKey"

Hi all, Is it possible to populate a listbox from a hashtable (complexbind) where the ValueMember of the listbox maps to the "key" member of the hashtable AND the DisplayMember of the listbox maps to the "value" member of the hashtable? I found that it is impossible to use a hashtable as a listbox datasource directly (from trial and error) and tried DirectCast-ing to an arraylist without any success. Before I spend anymore time in vain...

Hi all, After unsuccessfully trying to make my own dual listbox control out of arraylists, I decided to look for a 3rd party control. I've looked for over a week now and can't find anything but ASP.Net stuff when I need a Windows Form control. I've seen dual listbox populators in countless Windows applications, and have seen them run very fast, so I figured this would be extremely popular. Here's how it should work:

How would you add an item with its DisplayMember and ValueMember without binding to a datatable or dataview like: listbox.DisplayMember = "name"; listbox.ValueMember = "recid"; listbox.DataSource = dt; listbox.Items.Add(name) can only add the DisplayMember. Thanks,

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
