private void LoadData()
{
MedicalCustomersDBEntities db = new MedicalCustomersDBEntities();
CustomerList = db.Customers;
AutoCompleteStringCollection completeSource = new AutoCompleteStringCollection();
completeSource.AddRange(CustomerList.Select(ar => " " + ar.FirstName).ToArray());
completeSource.AddRange(CustomerList.Select(ar => ar.FirstName).ToArray());
this.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.Suggest;
this.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.CustomSource;
this.AutoCompleteCustomSource = completeSource;
}
I use this code to load all my customers. But when I have two customers with the same name the autocomplete textbox make distinct for result.
Is there a way to show all result.
Why don't you make use of distinct in the query itself.
CustomerList = db.Customers.Name.Distinct();
I don't have a PC, but you can try something like that....The above code is not right

Afternoon,
I have a search button which searches the list of the users is either by IDnumber,Username or department.
I have 2 list view which the users clicks and it load the selected user to the second list view. now the problem is after u clicked users from listview1 and u went to type ID,Username or select department and click search...It clears all the users you selected and bring new users u where searching.
I want to be able to select the users and be able to search without losing my current selected users from the listview
my code ;
//search button
private void Searchbutton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
listView1.Items.Clear();
string sID = string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtUserID.Text) ? null : txtUserID.Text;
string sDepartment;
if (cboDepartment.SelectedItem != null)
{
sDepartment = cboDepartment.SelectedItem.ToString();
}
else
{
sDepartment = "";
}

{
listView2.Items.Remove(i);
}
}
}
}
ListView remember which ListViewItems were checked. As soon as you say Items.Clear(), all that knowledge is lost.
To solve your problem, you will need to remember which users were checked, do your refresh, then go through and mark each user as checked again.
To do those steps, you really need to separate your model from your view. Create a User model object to hold the actual data, then populate your ListView with data from your model. When the user does another search, update or refresh your model objects, then rebuild your view.
Doing this model/view separation is a little more work up front, but future generations of maintenance programmers will bless your name.
BTW, ObjectListView -- an open source wrapper around a .NET ListView -- makes creating a fully functional ListView from a list of model objects trivially easy.
I have a combo box in wpf and I want to list first and last name in from a sql table. It is only allowing one entry at a time. Also I want to give each a heading but ValueMemberPath not recognised.
private void displayCust()
{
using (Entities c = new Entities())
{
cbUsers.ItemsSource = c.Customer.ToList();
//cbUsers.ValueMemberPath = "First";
cbUsers.DisplayMemberPath = "First";
cbUsers.DisplayMemberPath = "Last";
}
}
By far the easiest way to do what you want is for you to override the ToString() method in your customer class:
public override string ToString()
{
return string.Format("{0} {1}", FirstName, LastName);
}
Then you could do this:
using (Entities c = new Entities())
{
cbUsers.ItemsSource = c.Customer.ToList();
}
Alternatively, you could do this:
using (Entities c = new Entities())
{
cbUsers.ItemsSource = c.Customer.Select(c => string.Format("{0} {1}", c.FirstName,
c.LastName)).ToList();
}
However this will result in plain string values being entered into the ComboBox.
#Sheridan solution is a good solution.
Anyway, if you don't want to have a property that combines both (as #Blam said), you could also have an item template for the combobox with a MultiValueConverter.
Take a look at: http://blog.csainty.com/2009/12/wpf-multibinding-and.html
This way, the itemssource of the combobox can be the Customer class and you can do "things" with it, instead of being a plain string.

I need an XtraGrid control that has GridLookupEdit to enter column values.
What I managed to do so far:
1) I have configured XtraGrid control
columns: ID, Name, Number
in-place GridLookUp Editors for Name and Number columns
2) on the form Load event I load data from database and set XtraGrid datasource and both repositoryItem(..) datasource, valuemember and displaymember
a) Data are loaded in XtraGrid, I can activate cell but can not choose values from dropdown (from repositoryItem(..)) or enter values manually (i can activate cell in "*" new row but it has the same problem - can not choose from the dropdown or enter values manually) => why?
b) If I don't set datasource for XtraGrid, then both dropdown's are active and i can select values using GridLookupEdit, but when i exit the cell, the cell gets cleared => i believe this is because in this case no xtraGrid.DataSource is set?
var model = (from TableA a in _dbE.TableA select new {ID, Name, Number}).ToList();
//if i comment this line out, then i can choose values from GridLookUpEdit
gridControl1.DataSource = model;
repositoryItemNosaukums.DataSource = model;
repositoryItemNosaukums.ValueMember = "ID";
repositoryItemNosaukums.DisplayMember = "Name";
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.DataSource = model;
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.ValueMember = "ID";
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.DisplayMember = "Number";
What am I missing?
The problem was, that my data source "model" was a List, but it should have been BindingList with properties AllowNew==True and AllowEdit==True.
After DevExpress support asked if the data source is read only, i found this post which finally opened my eyes:
A Problem in DataGridView : datagridview seems readonly to user (WinForms)
correct version of code
//no projections (select new ...) for IBindingList<T>..
//var model = (from TableA a in _dbE.TableA select new {ID, Name, Number}).ToList();
var model = (from TableA a in _dbE.TableA).ToList();
//convert to BindingList
var bindingModel= new BindingList<TableA>(model);
bindingModel.AllowNew=true;
bindingModel.AllowEdit=true;
//bind BindingList to datagrid
gridControl1.DataSource = bindingModel; //model;
//... no changes to repositoryItem(..) stuff
repositoryItemNosaukums.DataSource = model;
repositoryItemNosaukums.ValueMember = "ID";
repositoryItemNosaukums.DisplayMember = "Name";
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.DataSource = model;
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.ValueMember = "ID";
repositoryItemPieteikumaNr.DisplayMember = "Number";
I have a WPF User Control with a ListView in it that is created based on the DataSet that is passed to it:
public void PopulateList(DataSet ds) {
listView.View = CreateGridViewColumns(ds.Tables[0]);
listData.DataContext = ds.Tables[0];
}
private GridView CreateGridViewColumns(DataTable dt) {
// Create the GridView
var gv = new GridView {AllowsColumnReorder = true};
// Create the GridView Columns
foreach (DataColumn item in dt.Columns) {
var gvc = new GridViewColumn
{
DisplayMemberBinding = new Binding(item.ColumnName),
Header = item.ColumnName,
Width = Double.NaN
};
gv.Columns.Add(gvc);
}
return gv;
}
Now I create the user control in code and call it's PopulateList with the appropriate dataset and this is where the problems are starting:
If I pass in a dataset that was created from a call to the database the list view shows all the data but if i pass in a DataSet that i created in code the ListView shows the Columns but will not show the data
//This is a function that hides the DB call return type is DataSet
var dsPatientSmokingStatusHistory = DataRepository.PatientSmokingStatusProvider.GetHistory(PatientId);
//radGridViewPatientSmokingStatus.DataSource = dsPatientSmokingStatusHistory.Tables[0];
var dt = new DataTable();
string c1 = "Date".PadLeft(23).PadRight(23);
string c2 = "Status".PadLeft(20).PadRight(50);
dt.Columns.Add(c1);
dt.Columns.Add(c2);
int i = 0;
foreach (DataRow row in dsPatientSmokingStatusHistory.Tables[0].Rows) {
var dataRow = dt.NewRow();
dataRow[c1] = ((DateTime)row["Date"]).ToString("MM/dd/yyyy");
dataRow[c2] = row["Status"].ToString();
dt.Rows.Add(dataRow);
dt.Rows[i].AcceptChanges();
i++;
}
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
dt.TableName = "Table";
ds.Tables.Add(dt);
ds.AcceptChanges();
smokingStatusGrid.GridWidth = 455;
smokingStatusGrid.GridHight = 97;
//This line does not show data
smokingStatusGrid.PopulateGrid(ds);
//This line will show data
smokingStatusGrid.PopulateGrid(dsPatientSmokingStatusHistory);
Is there a difference between these two datasets that i don't know about that is preventing me from databinding to it?
Also the user control is being used as an ElementHost in a WinForms application (not sure if this makes a difference)
Your code says:
DisplayMemberBinding = new Binding(item.ColumnName)
This binding constructor takes a string paramter which as per MSDN is "The initial Path for the binding" and is of datatype System.Windows.PropertyPath. I guess, since system tries to find a property with the same name in your class, and your string (item.ColumnName) has spaces at start, it runs into a problem (properties can't start with a space).
Would recommend you to take off the padding that you are doing in column name of your table. Apply any padding/margins in the Header of your GridView.
In the code below, the combo box named "ConnectionType" shows the selected item, but one cannot change the selected item (it seems like there is only one item in the combo box). If I comment out the line
typeCol.DataPropertyName = "ConnectionTypeName";
then the combo box is selectable, but the correct item is not selected, of course. What am I doing wrong??
Thanks.
private void LoadConnectionsGrid()
{
_dc = new EnterpriseEntities();
dataGridViewConnections.AutoGenerateColumns = false;
dataGridViewConnections.DataSource = _dc.Connection.Include("ConnectionType");
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn typeCol =
(DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)dataGridViewConnections.Columns["ConnectionType"];
typeCol.DataPropertyName = "ConnectionTypeName";
var qry = from c in _dc.ConnectionType
select c.Type;
typeCol.DataSource = qry;
DataGridViewTextBoxColumn nameCol =
(DataGridViewTextBoxColumn)dataGridViewConnections.Columns["ConnectionName"];
nameCol.DataPropertyName = "Name";
DataGridViewTextBoxColumn connStrCol =
(DataGridViewTextBoxColumn)dataGridViewConnections.Columns["ConnectionString"];
connStrCol.DataPropertyName = "ConnectionString";
}
Ultimately, I could not get data binding, the entity framework, and comboboxes to play nice and I just created the data grid brute force (code below). This means that I handle inserts, updates and deletes by hand.
private void LoadConnectionsGrid()
{
DataGridViewComboBoxColumn typeCol =
(DataGridViewComboBoxColumn)dataGridViewConnections.Columns["ConnectionType"];
var qry = from c in _dc.ConnectionType
select c.Type;
typeCol.DataSource = qry;
dataGridViewConnections.Rows.Clear();
foreach (Connection conn in _dc.Connection.Include("ConnectionType"))
{
dataGridViewConnections.Rows.Add(conn.Name,
conn.ConnectionType.Type, conn.ConnectionString);
}
}
