How to validate Combobox items without expanding the combobox.

Hi,
I want to select the combobox item.
before selecting an item I want to validate whether the item is present in the combobox list.
while validating the item at for loop the combobox get expanded. 
I don't want to expand it.
if (children[index].Name == entryToSelect)
isExists =
true;
break;
Please share your thoughts.....

Hi Rosy D,
I also try to test it in my side.
As far as I know we could collect all items with ComboBox.ObjectCollection class:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.combobox.objectcollection(v=vs.110).aspx
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17709363/check-if-user-input-are-in-the-combobox-items
But it seems that I'm failed to use this method in coded UI tests, so I’m afraid that it has this limitation for this issue.
We would use the
GetChildren method,
but as far as I know, we would expand this control.

  • How to align the item text in the combobox vertically centred after increasing the height of the combobox in mfc?

    I want to make the item text of the combobox to  be aligned vertically(Centred) . Actually I increased the height 
    of the combobox and after the increasing the combobox height, the text is not centred vertically.The code
    snippet for increasing the height is as follows,
    m_SpecifyCombo.SetItemHeight(-1,20);//CCombobox m_SpecifyCombo
    After increasing the height the text in the combobox is not in the centre as shown in the below image,

    Hi sivavuyyuru,
    I cannot find a easy way to make this.
    I think you may need to draw your own Combo Box control. And you could change the edit control more like static text. Check the article:
    http://www.codeguru.com/cpp/controls/combobox/fontselectioncombos/article.php/c1795/Owner-Drawn-Font-Selection-Combobox.htm
    In the resource editor, Owner draw -> variable , Has string->true, type->drop list.
    The result:

    How to validate a Query without executing it?
    For example if I have:
    ReadAllQuery myQuery = new ReadAllQuery(myClass);
    myQuery.setSelectionCriteria(myExpression);
    What can I do to have must validation as possible been done before executing the query?
    Validation that could be done are:
    - Expression reference fields that really exist in TopLink mapping
    - Literal provided to expression are of compatible type
    - Parameter setting set against the query are all compatible

    Your could prepare the query.
    query.prepareCall(session, record);
    This will do all query validation and generate the SQL for the query.

    Only partial songs downloaded when I purchased an album. How do I fix this without having the buy the whole album again?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    Hi
    I have bought my iPhone 3G yesterday. I have found out how to transfer music from iTunes however i can't transfer videos. I'm selecting the videos i want to transfer on the videos tab after i chose my iphone from the side menu and pressing apply. iTunes says that its syncing my iphone but it doesnt transfer the videos.
    Lately i have found out a function on the advanced menu for movies as "create iphone or ipod version". When i used that it transfered that video to my iPhone however the sound was completely lost besides that action takes too much time(around 10 mins for a 3 min video and i have a pretty strong computer).
    How can i transfer videos without losing the sound to my iPhone 3G?

    One thing I'd recommend is that you make sure the video/audio you're trying to transfer falls within the guidelines listed in the 'Video' section here:
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
    What's most likely happening is that the file is not converted as such so when you try to transfer it, it's wanting to convert it but is unable to for any number of reasons.
    There's software out there that might make this easier for you but I can't recommend anything specifically.

  • How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting?

    How can I copy/paste without copying the formatting? For example, if I copy a sentence from a website and paste it on text editing program, it copies all the formatting as well. How can I turn that off?

    There is an app called "No Formatting" in the App Store. It is simple and works perfectly - it strips formatting from paste (Ctr-V). I needed it for Word and Excel, which don't have keyboard shortcuts for this. It can be toggled on and off from the Menu Bar.

    COPING SCRIPT
    There are some Standard Sap Scripts in SAP. We cant directly execute them in scripts we have to use some T-codes and by giving some input to the required fields we can see the output printform.
    I will show one example. There are some Standard Sap Scripts such as MEDRUCK which is a standard Sap Script for Purchase Order and RVINVOICE01 for billing and so on...
    To see oupt of MEDRUCK go to T-code ME9F give purchase order number and execute select one number and click on dislplay messages button on application tool bar you can find the print form of MEDRUCK.
    You cannot change the Standard Sap Scripts but you can use Standard Sap Scripts and Copy them to userdefined Script and can make changes to them and replace standard Sap Script with usedefind script.
    Ex: Go to SE71,
    on menu bar u find Utilities->copy from Client. click on it u ll find new screen showing
    Form name:
    Source Clinet:
    Target Form:
    give Form name as usedefined form name EX: ZFORM1
    Source client as 000 and
    Target form as MEDRUCK.
    execute.
    Now, the standard from MEDRUCK is copyied to your form ZFORM1.
    NOW, go to SE71 and give form name as ZFORM1 and do some changes to the form such as adding logo any thing. save and Activate.
    Now, you have done changes to the Form ZFORM1 and u have to replace your form with standard SAP Script.
    Go to NACE Transaction.
    on Applications select EF for purchase order and click Output types button on application tool bar.
    now select NEU as output types dobule click on Processing Routines.
    now click on Change option on application tool bar and on right side u find MEDRUCK in form place replace MEDRUCK with ZFORM1 and SAVE.
    go back twice and now go to T-code ME9F give the purchase order number and execute and select one option and click on display messges button .
    you will find the changes that you have done in ZFORM1. so we cant chage the standard Sap Scripts by copying the Standard Sap Scripts we can chage and replace with our forms

    Hello! I'm out of the country and all my iWeb information is on my computer at home. Now I need to make changes on the webpage... how can i do that without using the computer i made the page on? Thank you!!

    iWeb uses the domain.sites2 files to store its assets.
    You'll find it here :
    ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
    where ~ is your Home directory.
    If you take a computer with you, you have to store that file in the same location.
    It's not different from taking documents with you if you want to edit them.
    A solution is to remotely control your computer at home.
    TeamViewer, LogMeIn, Apple Remote Desktop or any VNC application you can use, like "Chicken of the VNC".

    As the title says... How do I restart apex without restarting the database?
    For the second time in as many weeks apex 3.0.1(?) has stopped working while the database (10gR2) hasn't missed a beat.
    How do I restart apex?
    How do I get it to restart automatically on failure.
    How do I receive failure notification messages.
    How do I diagnose the cause of the failure.
    We were looking at using apex in a production environment but the prospect of unplanned restarts of production databases every week is a little daunting.

    David,
    >> We're not using oracle http server as it's a 64 bit version so yes the whole thing is running within the database.
    1) So your Web server is the XDB HTTP protocol server and embedded PL/SQL gateway (basically, the database's embedded Web server)? Is this 11g? If so, what platform?
    2) Are there any reported issues in the database alert log?
    3) When you check the status of the database listener, does it show services running for this specific port (default 8080, I guess)?
    4) If you normally go to http://server:port/apex, when this situation occurs, what happens when you try and go to http://server:port?

    PS, a note to Apple. You use terms like Mountain Lion,  Yosemite, etc. But in other places you use
    10.6, 11.7, etc. Could you be consistent? use one or the other, not both. Please. Or always use both together.

    Shoot Apple, you don't make things easy. I don't want to upgrade OS as you now require an itunes account to get upgrades, and I'm against that. (until I have to).
    So I switched to the chrome browser, that works.
