Hide a data column in combo box?

I want to load a combo box from a database with two values per row (add.Item ?) but I only want one value to be see by the end-user.
Example:
Hidden | Shown
12320 | Green
19210 | Red
72622 | Yellow
The user will see the colors but not the numeric values. The numeric values are actually the auto_id for each color in the database. I want to use the auto_id when I save the user's choice to another table instead of the color name.
Right now as soon as the use selects a color I hit the database for the auto_id number - that can't be good.
Thanks,
ADawn

Hello,
You would set the data source for the ComboBox that has your data then set DisplayMember to the field to show in the ComboBox along with ValueMember set to the hidden field. Now say in a button click event use ComboBox1.SelectedValue to get the hidden field,
cast as an integer if that is the data type of the hidden field.

How to hide certain items in a Combo Box

I've two Combo Box(CB). First CB contain 4 items(drop-down menus) and the 2nd CB contain 12 items.
I want that when I select one of the items from Combo Box1, then only 4 out of 12 items from Combo Box2 should be visible. So actually I want first combo Box to act as filter. Could this be done using the AS3 code.

I don't think there is any way to hide items, but you can rewrite he items basd on the selectedIndex value of the cbHeight combobox. In the code below, each element of the weightData array is an array of objects.
import fl.data.DataProvider;
var weightData:Array = new Array();
weightData.push([{label: "100"},{label: "110"},{label: "120"},{label: "130"}]);
weightData.push([{label: "200"},{label: "210"},{label: "220"},{label: "230"}]);
weightData.push([{label: "300"},{label: "310"},{label: "320"},{label: "330"}]);
function heightSelected(evt:Event):void
     var hSelected:int = evt.target.selectedIndex;
     var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(weightData[hSelected]);
      cbWeight.dataProvider = dp;

Need Help. Data jumps between Combo Boxes in an ADG

I have an item renderer in an advanced datagrid.
<mx:AdvancedDataGridColumn
    dataField="USE_TYPE_DESC"
    headerText="Use Type"
    rendererIsEditor="true"

    editorDataField="getData"/>
But the data that gets displayed in the combo boxes, appear to jump between CBs when you scroll the ADG up and down. The physical data is fine, its just the displayed data that is wrong.. Any ideas

Load data in a combo box dynamically

hello everybody!
I need to load a combo box, depending on the selected data in another, eg by selecting the country and loaded societies selected country.
Someone could guide whether this is possible, and if you have any examples that would be great.

Setting Data Field of Combo Box

I have a result set passed back as an Array. I want to set
and reference a combo box with those values
The first element in the array should be the data, the second
should be the label
I can get the label set, but i Cannot get and set the "data"
the actually selected value.
For example: my function is
public function onResult_getSkillsetNames( result : Array ) :
void
skillsetName_cmb.dataProvider = result;
skillsetName_cmb.labelField = "skillsetName";
skillsetName_cmb.selectedItem = result[0];
skillsetName_cmb.text = result[1];
//skillsetName_cmb= results[0];

Look this post.

Binding Data to a Combo Box

Using ODP.Net,
Does anybody have sample code for binding a column in a table to a combo box in either a web form or in a window application in .NET 2003
Thanks,
Declan

There's nothing special about doing this with ODP.NET.
Any example of ADO.NET databinding should work with ODP.NET.

Needs multi column dynamic combo box using C#

I need a dynamic Combo box to display multi columns on Drop Down Event
such as Stock Code, Make, Model,Sub Model, Measurement Type and so on for my C# Application with Columns Headers
Please Help Me
Thanks in Advance

You should create a class that represents your model and then you could use a CompositeCollection as the ItemsSource of the ComboBox.
Here is an example for you:
namespace WpfApplication59
public class YourModel
public string StockCode { get; set; }
public string Model { get; set; }
//+ the rest of your properties
MainWindow.xaml.cs:
public partial class MainWindow : Window
public MainWindow()
InitializeComponent();
List<YourModel> models = new List<YourModel>();
models.Add(new YourModel() { Model = "m1", StockCode ="c1"});
models.Add(new YourModel() { Model = "m2", StockCode = "c2" });
cb.ItemsSource = models;
MainWindow.xaml:
<ComboBox x:Name="cb" Grid.IsSharedSizeScope="True" ItemsSource="{DynamicResource items}"
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication59">
<ComboBox.Resources>
<CompositeCollection x:Key="items">
<ComboBoxItem IsEnabled="False">
<Grid TextElement.FontWeight="Bold">
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="A"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="5"/>
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="B"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.Children>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Text="Model"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="2" Text="Stock Code"/>
</Grid.Children>
</Grid>
</ComboBoxItem>
<Separator/>
<CollectionContainer Collection="{Binding Source={x:Reference cb}, Path=DataContext}"/>
</CompositeCollection>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type local:YourModel}">
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="A"/>
<ColumnDefinition Width="5"/>
<ColumnDefinition SharedSizeGroup="B"/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Grid.Children>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Text="{Binding Model}"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="2" Text="{Binding StockCode}"/>
</Grid.Children>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.Resources>
</ComboBox>
You could restyle the the templates (Grids) as per your requirements.

How do I retrieve data from combo boxes?

The past weekend I spent my whole weekend trying to find this
out and gone through the top 10 pages on google trying all sorts of
things. I would be grateful for anyone who can help me.
I have 6 combo boxes in a booking form and I need to retrieve
the data when someone click submits which gets forwarded on to php
then my mailbox. They are called box1_cb, box2_cb.....box6_cb All
in the instance of: ComboBox - which I don't understand what that
does.
it does not seem to be retrieving any of the data. For each
combo box:
I have the the options people can choose form in "Labels" box
under "Paramaters", nothing for "Data", Row Count is 8 and nothing
for "Change Handler" which I don't know what it does.
Can anyone please provide some help with telling me what
"change handler" does, do I need the data for each combo box in the
"Labels" parameter as well as the "Data" box, what an instance does
(for combo boxes) and what I need to put in the actionscript for
the submit button as well as do i need to put code in the
actionscript for each combo box?
The options people can choose from in the combo boxes are
there when someone views the site.
Can anyone please help me..I would greatly appriciate it.
Thanks.

If your hard drive can be detected and shows up as a drive letter in my computer but you can't access your files,then you can recover your data off it with data recovery software easily.This way is the easiest and the most inexpensive way to recover your data.If you bring it to a computer repair shop that is available for data recovery servise,they will cost you $500-1000 or more.Hmm, a lot of money.
I managed to recover data from crashed hard drive with Tenorshare Data Recovery.If needed,you can download it and scan your hard drive for free to preview whether your data can be recovered.It will show you thumbnails for recoverable pictures.

To filter data in two dates using combo box component

Hi,
I have a requirement like, i need to filter data in chart between two dates from two combo box.. From combo_box and To combo_box.
I am using one QaaWS to populate LOV's into Combo box's and another QaaWS for chart data. Universe is the same one on SAP BI query.
LOV's are populating into both combo's and chart as well, i used a query refresh button after choosing two dates and press button.
Data is not reflecting as per the choice of dates.
If any one have such scenario, request you to share the same....
Thanks in advance...
Raj..

Problem is with ranges, not with dates, my data is working fine with CALDAY (in BI Query)....
My query variable is on FiscalPeriod month, like "FEB 2011" to "OCT 2011" and is optional, but it is fails in QaaWS to execute when i try to input any months.
If we give default values in BI query format is like K4/010.2011 for october month. QaaWS doesnt fail and executes, but if i change any value in QaaWS it is taking as "OCT 2011"
And in Xcelsius it is not recognizing eaither of the formats like, K4/010.2011 or "OCT 2011"
the format is not matching with xcelsius.

Source Data option won't dispaly on combo box proprieties.

I am trying to use combo box to dispaly a serie of data but when activated, the source data for the combo box is not available. Any idea what might be the problem and how can I resolve it?
Thanks.

The source data is not available for certain insert options as they do not need source data.
These options are position, label and status list.
If you switch to any of the other insert types, you can then bind your source data.

Getting Dates using combo boxes

I am trying to get a start date and an end date from a combo
box. I have the following AS3 code but it doesn't work. startDay,
startMonth etc are all comboboxes with appropriate data. Just can't
figure the syntax to make it work.
var start_date = new
Date(startYear.selectedIndex,startMonth.selectedIndex,startDay.selectedIndex);
var end_date = new
Date(endYear.selectedIndex,endMonth.selectedIndex,endDay.selectedIndex);
then i want to calculate and display the total days
var nDiffDays = Math.floor((end_date - start_date)/86400000);
totalDays_txt = nDiffDays;
Any help appreciated.

There are two of those controls: the drop down list and the combo box. Try the drop down list instead.
