Visual Basic :: Select An Item From A Combo Box And Show A Field In A Text Box

Click Item In Listview Then Show That Item In Combo As Index = 0
Hi guys,

I have a listview (lvwUserPunchedOut) that is populated with records in a database (persons first name in one column and last name in the second column), what I am looking to do is if I select a persons name by clicking on it in the listview on frmMain, and then bring up frmSearchCriteria, i would like to show that selected name in the combobox as default (cboEmployee.ListIndex = 0) on frmSearchCriteria (the combobox is sorted = True and is also populated with first name and last name of the person)

How would this be done? Hope I make sense. Thanks in advance.

Select An Item In Combo Box Upon Load
Hi all,

I have a simple question. I have a VB6 program with at least 2 forms. The first form which interest us is used by a user to select the department in which he works. The second form receive that information plus the list of ALL departments.

What I want to acheive is this :

- The first form is opened.
- The user selects a departement from a combo box.
- The user clicks ok.
- The second form receive the information of the first form in a variable.
- Another combo box is present on the second form and is already filled with all the department names (identical to the one in the first form combo box).
- On load, the departement from the first form is selected in the combo box on the second form.

Is that clear enough to understand?

How Do I Select An Item From A Combo Box With A Mouse
This is an old one I know but I am stumped again!
I have a simple combo box with a list of 20 items I have added with additem.
I want to simply pick one of these with a mouse and put its value (Combo1.text) in another procedure (like you can do in Access).
None of the subs associated with the combo box seem to fire when you do this. The nearest being _Change when you type something in the box but picking from the list doesn't represent a change.
The last time I used a combo box this way was with Windows98 and before SP6 and I though it did then???

Show Item Text When Dragging A Treeview Node
Does anybody know how when dragging a treeview node, to display the text property of the node as well as the DragIcon. I want to be able to replate the drag drop behaviour of Windows Explorer, i.e while you are dragging a folder, you can see the folder name in transparent text.

I have no problem setting the DragIcon property from an imageList I have associated with the treeview. For example in the DragOver event I am setting the DragIcon based on whether the mouse is over a valid drop point. E.g. .DragIcon = LoadResPicture("NoDrop", vbResCursor)

However it only shows the DragIcon and nothing else when dragging the node. Any help appreciated.

Insert Combo Box Text Into Database Field
First of all, Hello to all vbcity forum users.

Now to my question....

How do I type in new data into a combo box or data combo box (which is not in the existing list) and automatically add that data into the database field?

Dynamically Sized Combo Box (select Text)
I have a combo box that has a lot of info in it.
The width of the combo box is enlarged when the dropdown event.
Then It is reduced on the lostfocus or click event.

The problem is that when I select something, the left most text is displayed in the combo box after the selection is made and focus is lost.

I though all I needed to do was set the .SelStart and .SelLength properties but that doesn’t work.

How do I make the left most part of the string appear in the combo box after the focus is lost?

EXAMPLE:
The list Item is “1 Item Number One is here.”
The static width of the combo box is such that I only see the first few chars (“1 “).
Then I click on the combo box and enlarge it so the user can see the whole list item.
But when the lost focus event happens, the user can see only the right most part (“ here.”)
I want the user to see the left part (“1 “).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Two Select Statements Using A Field From Select 1?
Ok I'm having a bit of a problem. Problem 1 is I'm working with someone elses tables and nothing was setup right but too many things uses these tables and they can't be changed.

Problem 2. I had data in 6 different tables that I need to extract (not every record from each table). So I made a table that looks like this.
ID - AutoNumber (Key)
Type - Text
RecordNum - Number
TableName - Text

My Table would look like this [Table name = LISTS].
1 US 5 IPBs
2 US 7 IPBs
3 US 1 OrderForms
4 US 3 OrderForms
5 US 1 TNB
6 US 2 TNB
7 US 3 TNB
8 CA 1 IPBs
9 CA 2 IPBs
10 CA 1 OrderForms

And so on..
What I need is and SQL statement like this "select * from LISTS where type = US"
BUT return all fields from the "tableName" field table where ID = the "RecordNum" field.

I could just say
SELECT * FROM LISTS WHERE Type = 'US'
Do While Not rs.EOF
SQL = "SELECT * FROM " & rs("TableName") & " WHERE ID=" & rs("RecordNum")
rs.movenext
Loop

but that seems like way too much work (for my program).. Is there a way to build a select statement with two SELECTS in it based off a field returned?

Select First Item In Listview
Hi,

I have a somewhat simple problem and I am wondering what the simplest way to handle it is. I have a treeview that I am loading with some information about files in a specific directory. The listview is set to automatically sort the list and after all the nodes are added, I want to have the top node in the treeview be selected. But I don't have a reference to the first node in the list. Are there any properties that I can use to get the node that is at the top of the list?

Thanks,

Combobox Item Select
Hello, I have a combo box with 5 items on it, how can i display text pertaining to the select item in a text box when the user select's an item out of the combo box.

They click the wedge to drop down the 5 choices, and I want to be able to display information about their choice when they select it.

Thanks for any help. Appreciate it.

Item.key Problem In Sql Select
This is similar to my other post, but a little different code. Still can't get the error fixed, but i know the right id is being retrieved because it even says the correct id in the error. still keep getting a syntax error that says missing operator.

Dim rsIclick, SQL, intMediaId
Set rsIclick = New Recordset

SQL = "Select mediaid from media_tbl where " & _
"mediaid=" & Item.Key
Set rsIclick = conn.Execute(SQL)
intMediaId = rsIclick("MediaId")

Select Item From MSHFlexGrid
I know that there are posts that come close to answering this question and I even got the code from the MakeDB Project which will help in other areas of the program. But what I need to do is have the user be able to click on an item in the populated recordset of an MSHFlexGrid and this action will populate the text boxes of another form.
The Idea is they bring up a form(form1) to edit items in the database. they are presented with a Select Item button that opens a form(form2) with the MSHFlexGrid on it that is populated with items in the database. They click the item, form2 is unloaded and form1 has all the fields filled in.

The grid is populated with the following code
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim objrs As New Recordset
mySQL = "SELECT Description, Manufacturer, Category, Location FROM Items"
g_Conn.CursorLocation = adUseClient

objrs.Source = mySQL
Set objrs.ActiveConnection = g_Conn
objrs.Open
Set flexSelect.DataSource = objrs
DoInitialSettings
End Sub

g_Conn is an ADODB.connection made in a module at program startup

Any help will be appreciated.
