Bound TextBox resets to database value

2 New Member
I have several textboxes programmaticall y bound to several database fields. For some reason, when I move from one particular textbox (lets say "FieldG") to another control on the form the original database value for FieldG appears in the textbox. I have noticed that going over a BindingSource.E ndEdit also causes the current value of the textbox to be replaced by the original database value.

Below is the binding statement that I am using. I am using relatively the same statement for ten other fields and they all behave as they should. I hope that someone might know why the unusual behavior is happening and how to stop it.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Me.FieldGTextBox.DataBindings.Add("text", BindingSource, "FieldG", False, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnValidation)
I have DataSourceUpdat eMode set to OnValidation, but I do not explicitly validate the textbox. I am not validating my other fields and they work so I don't think this is the problem.

P.S.
I'm using Windows XP Pro, MS Visual Studio 2005 and the database is a .mdb created by MS Office Access 2003.

I have been trying to figure this out for a few days, and now I see that the problem was so simple. I was trying to store decimal numerical values in a field set to have Integer field size. D'oh. After correcting the field size in the database and in the dataset it works as it should.

I have a bound textbox (bindings are set at design time) to a dataset column. Sometimes the value of this textbox must be set so that the underlying database field gets updated to null when using the update method of the dataadapter. Since the dataset field datatype is INT32 it gets set to the empty string equivalent which is 0. Zero is not a valid value so the update fails. Can this be done without changing the SQL of the udpdate...

Hi, I'm having trouble getting control data binding to work. As I understand it, the simplest form of databinding requires three things: 1) A control (say a textbox) on a form or user control, 2) A field or object.member to which you want to bind, 3) A "Binding" object that connects the variable to a property of the control ("Text" for example).

Hi all, I need to format screen output for a textbox that's bound to a datasource. I know how to format the data in a plain old string, but in this case I'm not sure where to "sneak" in there to do the formatting. For example, textbox txtAcctBalance is bound to a currency field in my dataset, and when the value shows up on the screen I want it formatted as currency ("C").

Hopefully this is the correct group for this message. My previous post to (I assume) a non-.net group was not welcomed. I have a form with 7 text boxes that are all bound to fields of a dataset. The form also contains a datagrid also bound to the same dataset. I have a button on the form to update the data to the source.

I have a Windows form that displays a database table in a DataGrid. When you click on a row, the row's values get copied to bound TextBoxes below, and when the "Save" button is clicked the database is updated (as is the DataGrid row) with changed values in the TextBoxes. Here are some observations: 1) When changes are typed into a text box and "Save" is clicked, the changes are reflected in the DataSet.Tables().Rows().ItemArray value, but...

Suppose: A TextBox is bound to a BindingSource, which is bound to a DataTable A BindingNavigator is used to alter the current row being looked at by the BindingSource (i.e. Nav's NEXT button is pressed. BS.Position changes from 2 to 3, Textbox was showing APPLE, now shows ORANGE) Does the textbox receive any notification that this occurred? If so, what?

So here's the situation (.NET 2.0 btw): I have a form, and on this form is a textbox among many other databound controls. The textbox is bound to a field in a data table via the Text property. In this table there are multiple columns that cannot be NULL, which, are bound to other controls (but they're not really important at this time). I create a new row via the currency manager like so: _currencyManager.AddNew() _currentRow =...

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,...
