DataGridView, 2 Forms and updating a database with textboxes

1 New Member
Hello,
I am a student and I need help with my VB task. I am currently using VB 2005 Express and I am fairly new to it, although I have programed in Delphi before.
--------------------------------------
My Problem is this:
--------------------------------------
I have 2 forms. The first form contains a DataGridView and a button. The DataGridView is bound to an access database, and loads at form_load. The second form contains several textboxes and a button. When I have entered data into all the text boxes, and then click the button, I want the database to be updated with these entries into a new row, and also have the DataGridView updated with the new row.

I have searched around and I keep coming up with different answers, also producing different errors. I managed to get the textboxes to update a DataGridView, but not a Bound DataGridView.

Any help at all is very much appreciated, and any suggestions welcome.
Thanks to all on the forum.

It sounds like if you use Form View data control, and enable editing, you should be able to accomplish this task easily.

This article presents several ways of binding data to DataGridView.
Good luck.

Hello, Following an example at http://www.vb-tips.com/dbpages.aspx?IA=DG (by Cor Lightert and Ken Tucker) on binding a dataRelation to a Datagridview for sqlClient, I was able to view rows in datagridview2 that corresponded to a selected row in datagridview1. Great article/example.

Hello, If I want to update data displayed in a datagrideview/datagridview cell, how can I determine what cell I am updating? I am looking at the click event below, for example. Can I get information from the sender object or the EventArgs? How? Private Sub DataGridView1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.Click Console.WriteLine("row number of cell is ?")

Can anyone tell me the best way to update a dataset while it is being edited/viewed in the DataGridView control? Is this something that should be inserted into one of the grid's events? or should you update after closing the grid/form, etc.? Also, can you tell me the best book to buy that fully explains the DataGridView control? Thanks.

I have a DataGridView with a TextBoxColumn. I setting the data source to a List<stringvalue in a static class. The list is filled from a background thread. So far all is fine and it works great, at least on my system. The reason I am doing this is some customers are pulling from VPN connections which are slow. This allows the list of rows in the data grid to appear a little quicker while the list which are not used as soon load in...

I am sorry for the broadness of this question, but I litterally can't get anywhere with this. I have a dataGridView that loads data from an Access 2007 Database. This works fine. I would like to, when I double click on a dataGridView row though, have a second form open with the information displayed in textboxes, etc. Not all of my data is in the dataGridView. From what I can gather, I would use the dataGridView RowEnter event for this,...

I have DataGridView in virtual mode containing 3500 rows. In code below, assigning to RowCount value to 3500 takes 8 seconds. CPU usage goes high at this time. Stepping by F11 into user code shows few celltemplate property getters and combobox/datecombo constructor calls without database access which does not take a lot of time. Debug output (below) shows lot of messages Stepping over non-user code. Running in release mode from...

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

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,...
