Trying To Change The Datagrid Row Background Colour.
Hi there,
I am struggling to find the correct syntax. I want to change the datagrid row background color based on an if statement. So far my logic is this:
query = "UPDATE customers SET "& Search_Customers.DataGrid1.BackColor & " = rgb(20,20,20) WHERE customerid = 1"
....however, the format might be to add a column name after SET.....
query = "UPDATE customers SET firstname = rgb(20,20,20) WHERE customerid = 1" (this statement updates all the data under "firstname" to rgb(20,20,20).
Thanks in advance

Change Background Color Of A Cell In A Grid.
Hey
I want to change the background color of a few cells in a grid. The only way seems to be changing them one by one in a For Next loop :
Code:Grid1.Col = ColNum
For Counter = UpRow To DownRow
Grid1.Row = Counter
Grid1.CellBackColor = &HC0FFFF
Next
Well , When there are more than 10 rows in a column, the execution of the loop is somehow slow and the user can see the cells being colored one by one. I was wondering if there were a method I could specify a range of cells and then change the back color at once.
Thanks

Data Grid View Colour
Hey,
Basically I’m creating a stock control system using visual basic, for one of my forms I am displaying data from a database table using a data grid view. The code I am using to display this data is as follows:
vb.net Code:
Imports System.DataImports System.Data.OleDbPublic Class Form3 Dim con As New OleDbConnection Dim da As OleDbDataAdapter Dim ds As New DataSet Private Sub Form3_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load con.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=StockSystemDatabase.mdb" da = New OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM tblStock", con) da.Fill(ds, "Stock") DataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables("Stock")
Now this code ^ works all well and fine and produces the data grid view like so:
http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/1746/datagz4.jpg
Now basically, I want for the stock items with no quantity (eg. Oil Lubricant) to have their whole row to be shaded in red so they are easily visible. How would I go about this and what code would I need to include to change the row colour to red.
Thank you

Dear sir/madam;
I have a form with a data grid written with VB version 8176. The project is working fine with my computer using this version 8176 but when I run the same project at school.

My school project is due in one more week and I have to get this data grid working. Please help, please!
Thank you for your attention.

Data Grid: How To Enter And Change Data?
Hi, folks!
I've added a Datagrid control to my form and have set its properties like this:
AllowAddNew = false
AllowDelete = false
AllowUpdate = false, on the form load event
There's a button called "Add New", with the following module:
MyDatagrid.AllowAddNew = True
Mydatagrid.AddNewMode
But when I click this button, this error message appears:
Invalid use of property (regarding the 2nd line, property .AddNewMode
There's another button called "Changes", with the module:
MyDataGrid.AllowUpdate = True
MyDataGrid.EditActive
And the same error message appears for the .EditActive property.
What I am doing wrong?
I'd like to allow the user to change or add new records only after clicking the proper buttons. I've done with another forms, but that's the 1rst. time I work with the DataGrid Control.
Please, help!
Thanks in advance for any ideas,
Roselene
Change The Data Field In Data Grid
Hi all,
I have an ADODC control, namely Adodc1, having the sql statement as below :
sqlstr = "select to_char(IN_DATETIME,'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss'),
, other_field from table1"
and the Adodc1 is bind to DataGrid1.
Upon clicking the IN_DATETIME column header, i wish to sort the recordset by IN_DATETIME. I use the following codes in the DataGrid1_HeadClick(ByVal ColIndex As Integer) function:
***************************************************************
strColName = DataGrid1.Columns(ColIndex).DataField
Adodc1.Recordset.Sort = strColName & " DESC"
***************************************************************
However, it gave me error as below whenever i click on the IN_DATETIME column :
****************************************************************
run-time error '3265': Ado could not find the object in the collection corresponding to the name or ordinal reference requested by the application.
****************************************************************
I believe it is because of the sql i used in Adodc1 as the data field name in Adodc1 is recognised as :
to_char(IN_DATETIME,'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss')
Is there anyway i can set the ADODC recordset field name manually in the code? I tried :
Adodc.Recordset.Fields(ColIndex) = strColName
but it gave me the following error :
****************************************************************
run-time error '91':
Object variable or With block variable not set
***************************************************************
Due to some reasons, i must use to_char(IN_DATETIME,'dd-mm-yyyy hh24:mi:ss') in my sql instead of IN_DATETIME.
Can anyone give me some hints how should i go about it? Thanks in advance.

VB6.0 Data Grid, Odd Behaviour In Change Event
Hi All,
I have come across a problem today that is really bugging me and hope someone here can help. Basically what is happening is the following:
1) I have a data item which reads in data from table in the database called RECURRING_FREQUENCIES, which contains two fields; RECURRING_FREQUENCY_ID and RECURRING_FREQUENCY_NAME
2) The data source is linked to a DBCombo called db_recurreceFreq
3) The Change event for the drop-down is defined as there is one option in the database, which requires some other objects to be enabled.
4) If the user selects an option other than the checked one then it all works fine, but if they do select the checked one then the BoundText portion of the drop down suddenly contains RECURRING_FREQUENCY_NAME instead of RECURRING_FREQUENCY_ID
5) I have tried recreating all the onjects, but to no avail!
My code for the Change even is as follows:
CODE ' if it is user defined then enable the disabled text boxes
If (Me.db_recurrenceFreq = "User-defined") Then
Me.label_userFreq.Enabled = True
Me.text_userInterval.Enabled = True
Me.combo_userFrequency.Enabled = True
Me.text_userInterval.SetFocus
' otherwise disable them
Else
Me.label_userFreq.Enabled = False
Me.text_userInterval.Enabled = False
Me.combo_userFrequency.Enabled = False
End If

Trying To Get The Right Background Colour ..
OK ... I have a colour chart showing colours and their respective hex values.
If I try and make the backolour of a form one of these colours, for example dark blue using hex value 330099, VB throws a wobbly and defaults it to black !!
I've always used the standard pallette in the past. Typical ... as soon as I start to try and be creative VB hates me !!!
Am I missing something here ?
ListView Background Colour
Hello
My first post in this forum, so nice to meet you all!
I want to selectively set the background colour of items in a list view, so that the user can easily differentiate between various categories of items.
The standard:
SendMessage(ListView1.hwnd, LVM_SETEXTENDEDLISTVIEWSTYLE, 0, ByVal lStyle)
unfortunately seems to set the whole lot to just the one colour.
Is it even possible?
Thanks

RichTextBox And Background Colour
Wotcha, folks.
I've been searching for a way in which to change the colour on just a selected portion of a rich text box.
We have a RTB that lists information that is then checked and coloured according to the information it finds. I.e any text with the words "problems" is highlighted in red, etc.
As we've now run out of distinguishable colours, I'd like to change the selected background colour.
There was one relatively similar question asked here earlier, but it never really went anywhere.
Is it possible to change the background colour of a selected piece of text in a RichTextBox?
Much ta.

Background Colour Of Combos
I use a form for data input consisting mainly of a number of textboxes and comboboxes. Textboxes are highlighted as they get the focus by assigning a light blue background color in the gotfocus event. Thereafter the white background is restored at the lostfocus event.
Combos however become automatically painted with the same colour as the form's title bar when they get the focus. Could this be avoided? I'd like to have the combos coloured in the same light blue as the textboxes.
Form Background Colour
Hi,
This is just a simple question.
When you create a form, it's default colour is set to some vb constant. In my case, this is vbButtonFace
So, if I compile an exe and run this on another computer, will the background colour of the form change based on what settings that person has on his computer???

Command Buttons Background Colour HELP!!
Im atempting to change the colour of all of the command buttons in my project, i have succesfully managed to do that with the form back colour and the MDI colour. However i cant seem to be able to changet he colour of a command button (using a combo box- with the names of colours being displayed and coding behind it) Which ever colour the user selects and the "Display" button is pressed the command buttons should change colour but they do not.
I have attempted to do it this way:
Code:
FrmEditColour.CmdDisplay.BackColor = TxtProjectedCol3.BackColor
(The Cmd Display is the command button)
(The txtProjectedCol3 is a text box with a colour in it- which should make the command button change colour)
Is there anyway of doing this, or have i done something wrong/need to modify my code?

Changing Background Colour With A Method
I am trying to change the background colour of an array of radio buttons using a method. The radio buttons are named "rbColours(INDEX)". There are only 4 of them, so going out of bounds shouldnt be a problem for the array.
The error I get (on run), is "Object variable or With block variable not set". I am using VB6
I know that, as far as my current code goes, this is a really long way to do it, but I hope to, once this works, do it for a much bigger project.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim ColourTable(3) As Data
ColourTable(0).BackColor = &H8000000F 'Grey
ColourTable(1).BackColor = &HFF& ' Red
ColourTable(2).BackColor = &HFF0000 ' Blue
ColourTable(3).BackColor = &HFF00& ' Green
End Sub
Private Sub rbColours_Click(Index As Integer)
Call ChangeColours(Index)
End Sub
Private Sub ChangeColours(Index As Integer)
rbColours(Index).BackColor = ColourTable(Index)
End Sub
PS. Thank you all for your help
Shape Background Colour Issue
I dabbled with VB about a year and a half ago but have forgotten a lot of the intricasies and now I find myself needing to create an application for some harware that I'm building but I'm stumbling.
This problem (I'm sure it won't be my last post :
I declared the use of the sleep function at the top of my program.
I have a shape (Shape 2) which represents an LED indicator. When a button is pressed, data is sent out the UDP port and the background of Shape 2 turns green. If Checkbox 7 is ticked when the button is pressed, the same udp data is sent out the udp port and the LED should turn green for 1 second then different udp data is sent and the LED (Shape 2) should turn red. It works fine when the checkbox is not ticked (send the udp data out and turns the LED background Green BUT when the checkbox is ticked, the LED (Shape 2) does not turn Green at all (the udp data is being sent though).
Essentially, with the checkbox unticked, the button serves to turn on the LED
and with the checkbox ticked, it acts like a momentary switch (on then off).
The delay is working because I can see my On, wait 1 sec then Off udp
data using a packet sniffer.
I can't help thinking that I am overlooking some small detail (as usual
Thanks, Hugh
Private Sub Command3_Click()

End If

Changing The Background Colour In-form.
Okay, I need to be able to change the backround colour using hotkeys, I think i have to use the numbers as Hotkeys (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,), but if that is long and/or complex, how can you do this with Cmdbuttons?
