Hi,
I have a strange question... I have a series of combo boxes being
populated by the same dataset, and I've noticed if one is changed then
all change as well. I'm using Visual Basic 2005 and writing a Winform
app, and below is how I'm binding the dataset to the combobox object:
cbTotalCurrency .DataSource = CurrencyDataset .Tables(0)
cbTotalCurrency .DisplayMember = "CurrencyNa me"
cbTotalCurrency .ValueMember = "CurrencyID "
I have about 5 comboboxes using this same dataset and if I change any
of the dropdowns in the application when running, all 5 change to
whichever one I selected.
Other than creating 5 different datasets, is there anyway around
this? I want the user to be able to select a different item in each
combobox.
Thanks --
Alex

Alex,
One way to make the comboboxes independent of each other is to assign each
combobox a new binding context. For example:
cbTotalCurrency .BindingContext = New BindingContext
cbTotalCurrency .DataSource = CurrencyDataset .Tables(0)
cbTotalCurrency .DisplayMember = "CurrencyNa me"
cbTotalCurrency .ValueMember = "CurrencyID "
Do that for each of the comboboxes and then they should be independent.

In my custom menu one menu item opens a form to add new Makes to TblMakes and

hi
i bounded the same dataview to 2 different comboboxes. now, when i change
the selectedIndex of combobox1, it automatically changes the selectedIndex
of combobox2.
does this mean, that the combobox selects the item on the base of some kind
of a pointer on the dataview? if yes, is there a class inside the framework,
which i can use to change this pointer on the dataview myself?
thanx for any hint.

Hi All,
I need some advice. I have a table in MSDE2000 with about 3 million records.
It's a city database. What I want to do is have 3 comboboxes on a form. The
first would be to select a country, second, to select a region (state,
province, etc) in that country, and the third would be a list of cities in
the selected region.
I don't want 3 million records in my dataset, but I can't figure out how to
set things up so that I'm only...

Here's one that should probably have the sub-heading "I'm sure I asked this
once before, but ...".
Two users are both looking at the same data, from a database. One user
changes the data and commits it. How does the other user get the updated
view without polling for changes? Is there some sort of callback mechanism
that can be set up on the dataset or connection?
TIA

I have a routine that creates a series of comboboxes, each of which is
bound to a common dataview. Everything used to work fine, but now,
when I change the value of any of the comboboxes, the value in ALL of
the comboboxes changes to the new value. I have boiled down the code
to the simplest lines and placed it on its own form, but I still get
the same behavior. I have stepped through each line of code, and I
don't see any other lines...

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,...
