Using a listbox value

4 New Member
Hi. I really need help on how to use a value stored in a listbox.

I have a form on which it has the following code. This form allows the user to add a value to the textbox which is on this page and then takes the user to the next page:

Public Class City
Dim frm1 As ConfirmDestinat ion 'Our instance of form2
Dim items As New List(Of String) 'Internal collection of items
Dim streetitem As New List(Of String) 'Internal collection of items
Dim postcodeitem As New List(Of String) 'Internal collection of items

Private Sub Button23_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles Button23.Click
Dim newItem As String = TextBox1.Text
items.Add(newIt em) 'Add new item to our list
'If Form2 exists then add the item to it's listbox
If frm1 IsNot Nothing AndAlso Not frm1.IsDisposed Then frm1.ListBox2.I tems.Add(newIte m)


TextBox1.Text = ""

If frm1 Is Nothing OrElse frm1.IsDisposed Then
frm1 = New ConfirmDestinat ion
frm1.ListBox2.I tems.AddRange(i tems.ToArray)
frm1.Show()
Else
frm1.Visible = True
End If

If newItem = "OSTERLEY" Then
Dim Item1 As String = "ST MARY'S CRESCENT"
streetitem.Add( Item1) 'Add new item to our list
'If Form2 exists then add the item to it's listbox
If frm1 IsNot Nothing AndAlso Not frm1.IsDisposed Then frm1.ListBox1.I tems.Add(Item1)
End If

If newItem = "OSTERLEY" Then
Dim Item2 As String = "TW74NB"
postcodeitem.Ad d(Item2)
'If Form2 exists then add the item to it's listbox
If frm1 IsNot Nothing AndAlso Not frm1.IsDisposed Then frm1.ListBox3.I tems.Add(Item2)
End If


End Sub

Once the user has clicked the NEXT button to go to the next form, there are three listboxes. i want to be able to go through the listbox values and say the following:

if listbox1 contains ST MARY'S CRESCENT and listbox2 contains OSTERLEY and listbox3 contains TW74NB, then display form A

HOW do i do this?? Please help!

Hi! I have seen some techniques like this on the web. Currently, I'm using Combo box which values came from database table. One disadvantage is when the combo box have lots of values, users are complaining since you cannot use keyboard to search the value that is needed. Hope you might help me. regards, Me

Hi- I'm creating a database of music bands with their cds and songs. I'm trying to program an SQL statement so that I can enter a string of text in a textbox, press the 'Enter' key, and have it return the associated records to a listbox. Once the listbox has the records, I want to select a record, which will open a form associated with the selected record in the listbox.

I have a lot of respect for David Fenton and Allen Browne, but I don't understand why people who know how to write code to completely replace a front end do not write something that will automate the code that implements managing unbound controls on forms given the superior performance of unbound controls in a client/server environment. I can easily understand a newbie using bound controls or someone with a tight deadline. I guess I need...

Hi, I have 2 listboxes. The first gets populated from the db as soon as the page loads. The second listbox get populated based on the user's selection from the first listbox. However, currently the code is such that with each selection there is a postback. We want to avoid it using filter and javascript. I am not using ADO.NET but adodbc and no datagrids or datasets (please don't tell me that i should as my boss clearly doesn't want...

HI, I need to populate 2 listboxes from a db. When the page loads then the first listbox needs to be populated and based on selection from that listbox the second listbox needs to be populated accordingly with the matching items. However, my boss doesn't want the page to do a postback once an item from the first listbox is selected. also, he doesn't want to use ado.net but classic ado. He wants to use jscript.

I'm trying to figure out a way to list several items in a listbox and let the user select any number of items in the listbox. I have tried to code in the items as bitwise items but all it stores in the database is the top item in the listbox. How can I get the listbox to add all the bit values to be stored and also come out properly when viewed later? Example:

(If you've seen this in the drawing NG, sorry. I inadvertently sent it there.) I have a listbox populated with Objects. The Class has a String field that ToString returns. I assume that is what the ListBox uses for its display. Correct?

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,...
