Are there any examples for doing an auto-complete with the WinForms GridView? If not, is this something that can easily be done with the WinForm GridView?

accessing active document grid in RadDock

Hello,

I was wondering how I can go about interacting with the a radgridview on an active documentwindow. Here is my scenario:

1. Using a RadRibon form
2. Using RadDock with Autodetect MDI form
3 toolwindow with TreeView.
4. TreeView is filled from a dataset / datatable which is filled from SQL database

each node of the tree view has a unique SQL statement associated with it. This is my code when doubleclicking the node:

Private Sub TV_Reports_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TV_Reports.MouseDoubleClick

Try

Dim filter As String = "ID='" & TV_Reports.SelectedNode.Tag.ToString & "'"

For Each row As DataRow In ds.Tables("TreeView_Reports").Select(filter)

If row("Menu_Type").ToString = "Report" Then

Me.SqlReportStr = row("Sql_Query")

Me.Parent_StatusStripLabel.Text = "Running report: " & row("Name")

Me.Parent_StatusStrip.Update()

Me.Parent_StatusStrip.Refresh()

Dim frm As New Form_Report

frm.Text = "Report: " & row("Name")

frm.MdiParent = Me

frm.FormBorderStyle = Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable

frm.Dock = DockStyle.Fill

frm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized

frm.Show()

End If

Next

Catch ex As Exception

End Try

End Sub

the public variable SqlreportStr is set so the Report form can read it and run the query

Public Class Form_Report

Dim ds As New DataSet

Dim DT_Report_Results As New DataTable("ReportResults")

Dim SqlReportStr As String = Nothing

Dim jobcount As Integer = 0

Private Sub Form_Report_FormClosed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosedEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosed

ds.Clear()

ds.Dispose()

Me.Dispose()

Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default

GC.Collect()

GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers()

GC.WaitForFullGCComplete()

GC.WaitForFullGCApproach()

GC.Collect()

End Sub

Private Sub Form_Report_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

ds.Tables.Add(DT_Report_Results)

SqlReportStr = Form_Parent.SqlReportStr

Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor

Dim Search_Worker As New BackgroundWorker

jobcount += 1

AddHandler Search_Worker.DoWork, New DoWorkEventHandler(AddressOf StartReportFill)

AddHandler Search_Worker.RunWorkerCompleted, _

New RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler(AddressOf Search_worker_RunWorkerCompleted)

Search_Worker.RunWorkerAsync()

Search_Worker.Dispose()

End Sub

Private Sub StartReportFill(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs)

FillSqlDs("ReportResults", SqlReportStr)

End Sub

Private Sub Search_worker_RunWorkerCompleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs)

jobcount -= 1

GridLayout()

Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default

End Sub

Private Sub GridLayout()

Try

GV_Reports.DataSource = ds

GV_Reports.DataMember = "ReportResults"

Catch ex As Exception

MsgBox(ex.Message)

End Try

GV_Reports.Columns("Sys_ID").IsVisible = False

Form_Parent.Parent_StatusStripLabel.Text = "Ready!"

Form_Parent.Parent_StatusStrip.Update()

Form_Parent.Parent_StatusStrip.Refresh()

End Sub

Private Sub FillSqlDs(ByVal tbl As String, ByVal qry As String)

If Form_Parent.MyConnection.State = ConnectionState.Closed Then

Form_Parent.MyConnection.Open()

End If

'Using Form_Parent.MyConnection

Dim Dadapter As New SqlDataAdapter

Using Dadapter

Try

Dadapter.SelectCommand = New SqlCommand(qry, Form_Parent.MyConnection)

Dadapter.Fill(ds, tbl)

Catch ex As Exception

MsgBox(ex.Message)

End Try

End Using

End Sub

End Class

The problem that I have is that this form could be open several times at once displaying different data as the SQL queries are differnet. Also looking at the name of the form it comes accorss as Form_Report1, Form_report2 etc depending on what instance of the form that it is.

I am looking to be able to do the following with the girds:
1. export to excel
2. process each row of the grids in order to make other database changes.

if some one could point me to how I could exactly about interacting with the gridview i would greatly appreciate it.

thanks!

Enable/Disable the DateTimePicker based on checkbox

I have a DateTimePicker Control. I have set the ShowCheckBox Property to True. I would like this checkbox to enable/disable the datetimepicker based on weather it is checked or not. I'm surprised it doesn't do this by default. Nor is there any other property to set to allow this behavior. I also can't find any event to hook into that would allow me to achieve the desired results.

I did find through the smart tags how I could disable the two "parts" of the DateTimePicker (RadDateTimePickerArrowButtonElement, and RadMaskEditBoxElement) during design time.

Another approach, I guess that works is to attached to the value changed event. This way as soon as a user sets the value from null to something, the checkbox could be checked for them. This allows them to have the correct checkbox state, without manually checking it themselves.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
