C++ :: Using A Textbox And Other Items Between Multiple Forms

Oct 31, 2013

I am writing a program in Visual C++ 10 with 2 forms.

In the first form I have a textbox and a button. The button opens the second form.

In the second form, I have a button that changes the text in the textbox in form1 to an item from a listbox in form2.

Here is my problem. When I do the code for the button in form2 to change the textbox in form1 I get the errors:

error C2065: 'textBox1' : undeclared identifier
error C2227: left of '->Text' must point to class/struct/union/generic type

I thought maybe I should just include the "Form1.h" file but I can't do that because I already included "Form2.h" in form1 in order to be able to open the second form. If I try to include form1 in form2, it says that the code to open form2 is an error now.

My question is, how can I access identifiers such as "textbox1" from other forms and other files when I already used the first form to open the second form? I also want to know how to do this for all identifiers between all files.

how to print the selecteditem from a listbox into a textbox because that doesn't work by just setting them equal either.

Here is my code:

#pragma once
#include "Form2.h"
namespace Test1 {
using namespace System;

[Code].....

C# :: Find And Select Multiple Items In ListBox?

Apr 18, 2014

I have a listbox that retrieves a bunch of values. I'm able to selectAll, Select None and Select Individual items. I'm not able to search the ListBox and select based on String value.

I have tried creating a for and if loop, but it will only select a single item (first item) in my ListBox.

private void btnSelectCAD_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
// Find CAD Line Patterns that Begin with IMPORT:
string mySearchString = "IMPORT";
// Search Listbox starting from index -1:
int index = lstLinePatterns.FindString(mySearchString, -1);

Visual C++ :: Finding Items (strings) In Multiple Lists

Mar 12, 2013

Im working on a script compiler and i need to handle different types of data. Actually different categories of items.

Let's say i have two categories: cat's and bird's. They are different and stored in different lists. And let's say there is a simple command: GIVE_FOOD_TO(animal_type, food_type) Animal type here can be either from birds category or cat's category.

And also let's say user gives command: GIVE_FOOD_TO(cat1, fish)
and also for example: GIVE_FOOD_TO(bird1, birdfood)

Variable names could be anything, but im storing each variable name in std::map so later i can figure out with what animal current command is used.

When im parsing the script then i must know if user supplied either cat or bird. If i just would have cat's or bird's category then i would have only 2 lists and not a big problem to loop through either cats list or birds list and find out in what list the "cat1" is or in what particular list the "bird1" is. It would be in one or another.

But i have a lot of categories and looping through all of these lists (or std::maps) is slow and doesn't seem like a good. Just to find out in what list it's stored. I can't rely on variable names, they could be anything.

Big picture atm:

1) I have one BIG box which stores all of the categories

2) When i need to find out to which category the variable (animal_type) point's to i must get it quickly, dunno, std::map in std::map or something?

What i need basically is: I have different lists (each one is just a category for either birds or cats in this example) And when i have variable name, i must find out quickly in what particular category this item is stored. So i can work with it.

C# :: Passing Properties Between Forms

Nov 2, 2014

I've been attempting to design a multiform WFA in Visual Studio 2010, but I'm so rusty with the language it's hard to remember how to do a lot of things, especially when it comes to visual programming, which my class only partially covered. I've never made a multiform application before, and my problem essentially boils down to how to pass data between forms.

My application is a simple item list and order form, sort of mimicking what you might see on a site like Amazon or eBay. My first form contains a drop down list and 'checkout' button. The dropdown list has been populated with an object collection, each object holding the product's name and price.

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
//Item class for dropdown menu
public class Item {
public string Name;
public decimal Price;
public string itemName

[Code] ....

When the 'checkout' button on form 1 is clicked, I want the Price and Name properties of the selected droplist item to appear in a pair of text boxes on form 2 for the purpose of lowering the user's cognitive load (if they can see what they've selected, it's one less thing to remember).

I've seen plenty of tutorials on how to send a textbox Text property between forms, but none for how to do this. As I said, I'm rusty with the language, and I'm pretty sure there's a better way to set up my combobox items, but I can't remember how to set it up.

C# :: Passing Values From Different Forms

Mar 21, 2014

So form two needs to pass information that was typed in its text box to form 3. So then form 3 can use this information. I think I am creating a new instance of form 2 because I get the exception can not divide by 0 so it is empty even if I typed in a integer in the text boxes. How to pass information from the textbox to a var that can be used in another form.

public partial class MapProperties : Form {
private int _numRows;
public int NumRows {
get { return _numRows; }

C# :: Pass Values Between Forms Using Get And Set Properties?

Jan 15, 2015

Well I know how to pass values between forms using get and set properties. But the problem with it is everytime I want to pass values from form2 to form1 it doesn't appear. To make it appear I have to type form1.Show(); which open form1 a second time and then show the value. Is there any way I could make it appear without using form1.Show();?

C# :: Passing Datagridview Values To Different Forms

Apr 2, 2015

I am currently writing a program which needs an edit form. This form is to edit a country in the datagridview which I have. I am however confused about how to pass the data from the data gridview in the main form to the relative places on the edit form. I have done most of the coding as shown below. I know I need a method in my AVL class to return all the information of the selected country back to the main form method which then passes it back to the edit form and displays it. I am unsure what to pass and what to write in this method.

Main form method

public void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// creates new form referencing data grid view and AVL Tree
EditCountryForm editform = new EditCountryForm(ref this.countryTree, dataGridView1);
string CountryName = "";
//set name of country selected to string

C Sharp :: Interact With Components From Other Forms

May 6, 2013

What I'm doing is giving the user the choice to show 2 different dates. 1 in yyyy-mm-dd notation and the other in dd-mm-yyyy notation.

I'm using a second form to do this.

So from Form1 I have my data in the datagrid and in Form2 I have 2 radio buttons giving the user the choice between Date1 and Date2. So how would I be able to interact with the first form with the radio buttons?

C# :: Windows Forms Listening To Github Push?

Jan 7, 2015

Currently developing a windows form application that will be used to listen to certain events in a github repo (mainly push).

I have been struggling with this for a few days now and still have no code to show for this apart from the popup that will show how to achieve this.

Its been mentioned to use webhooks? However I'm not sure if these work with windows forms?

I have looked at octokit and this doesn't look to achieve this either.

C# :: Sharing Item List Object Between Two Forms

Nov 4, 2014

I've changed up my code to the retail checkout WFA I am trying to make. I have an item list filled with objects of the now globally accessible 'Item' class, but I'm having trouble.

Essentially, I want to send an object of the item class chosen from a dropdown menu to form2, where I will fill in certain blank attributes with data entered in form2's text boxes and comboboxes. The problem, it seems, is I need another itemlist in form2 that will hold the object being passed to form 2, so I can then pass all the information to textboxes on form3 (the receipt/review page). It's been more than a year since I coded with C#, and I've forgotten quite a bit. I was also not able to find any tutorials on building an item list without an associated combobox or droplist, which is what I need.

This is my item class (minus most of its properties so the page doesn't stretch).

class Item {
public string prodName;
public string fName;
public string lName;
public string ccNum;
public string ccProv;
public string shipAddr;

[code] ....

For anyone who didn't see my last question, I'm in a User Interface Design class, not a C# class. I know this probably isn't the best code out there, but for my purposes the program just needs to compile beginning to end and pass the data like it should.

Managed C++ And C++/CLI :: Message Loop In Windows Forms

May 13, 2014

I'm trying to port a Win32 application over to Windows Forms so that I can have better graphical control over the interface. The program itself is pretty simple; in the main message loop it listens for a WM_CopyData containing a certain char array, and occasionally sends WM_CopyData itself after the user clicks a certain sequence of buttons.

I found a couple of pages discussing how to completely override the Windows Forms WndProc, but I rather like having the framework do all of the control and would prefer to only latch onto it, rather than replace it. So, what would be the best way to have a Win Forms application listen for Windows Messages continuously and execute a function upon receiving them?

If I do need to override WndProc, what is the syntax? I found the following code:

Code:

protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) {
base.WndProc (ref m);
if (m.Msg==0x4a) // WM_COPYDATA {
// do your stuff here...
}
}

But when I stick that into my main.cpp file right after int main function, "protected" gets highlighted as a syntax error with the message "IntelliSense: expected a declaration".

C# :: Going Back And Forth Between 2 Forms Show Error Invalid Operation

Jul 29, 2014

So the thing is I have 2 forms, form 1 is displayed first, and form2 would be open when click the next button on form1.

So i was success in moving to the next form, and even getting back to the previous, and then next again, but on the second time I try to go back from form2 to form 1, this error show up.

The error:

Form that is already displayed modally cannot be displayed as a modal dialog box. Close the form before calling showDialog.

This is my sample code:

Form1 next button
private void button2_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.Hide();

C Sharp :: Change Background In All Forms With Button Click

Jul 14, 2013

I made 2 forms and Form2 has buttons with images like planets and game wallpapers etc. When I write the code for button:

this.BackgroundImage = new Bitmap(Properties.Resources._8_8008_by_amplifier404); 
this.BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.Stretch;

// where _8_8008_by_amplifier404 is name of the image located in resources

It only changes background in form which has those buttons as long the form is used. Once I go back to form1 it's changed to null. How to set background in all forms with a button click which will be there until another button with an image is clicked.

Managed C++ And C++/CLI :: Opening Forms With Buttons From Form 1 (With Conditions)

Jun 12, 2014

I'm pretty much newbie in creating a successful GUI in C++. Although, i managed to create 4 buttons that should show a certain form. Lets say, Form1 is my main form, therefore - Button 1 will open Form2, and Button 2 will open Form3..... But the conditions is - If there is a form that is already open, clicking again on the Button that should open it, will Close it, but all the forms (form1,2,3,4,5) can be enabled together.

Also, a very important note is that whenever i close a form, in any way of closing it (Not the main form) It will "save" the changes i made (Such as ticking checkboxes and so..) and won't reopen it, it will just use "Visible" i guess ?

Notes :

If i use Form2 ^form2show = gcnew Form2;

and then Form2->Show();

I will be able to simply ATTACK the button and open Billions of form2 ^_^

Although, when i use Form2->ShowDialog();

It won't let me open the form3,4,5.

Which isn't so bad, but when i exit from the form2, it won't save my changes (Such as checkboxes..)

C# :: Searching DB For Value In Textbox (WPF)

Nov 3, 2014

WPF window I'm working on. I have a window that has a textbox to enter a name to search a database table for, and when the search button is clicked, the ID for that username will be returned to a separate textbox. The code I've written atm doesn't seem to be working, but it looks fine to me. Here's what I've got;

private void btn_SearchUsers_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(txtb_SearchName.Text))
{
SqlConnection sqlCon = new SqlConnection(conStr);

[Code] .....

So, I have the value entered into the textbox to be searched for stored in a variable, I'm selecting the ID from the table when the name in the variable is found, storing the result in a DataTable, and then in my foreach loop, if I find the name (the name column being index 1 in the table), I set set the ID result textbox to equal the ID for that name (the ID column being index 0 in the table). I think the foreach part is what's throwing me off. Maybe the column stuff? My Users table is like;

ID Name
1 John
2 Roger
3 Mike

C# :: Write WPF With Textbox

Mar 28, 2015

I was following a c# book to write a WPF with a textbox. When the textbox is selected(got focus) with keyboard or mouse, it will select all text in it. I followed the book and wrote this:

private void TextBox1_GotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
TextBox1.SelectAll();
} private void TextBox1_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) {
var control = sender as TextBox;

[Code] ....

The book said having "e.Handled = true" is to stop the event in order to prevent the cursor being positioned on somewhere of the text instead of selecting all text. From my understanding, "e.Handled = true" is for stopping routed events. Is this means that something will run if "e.Handled = true" is not there? If yes, then what is it?
