OK, no worries. There isn't AFAIK any other way to do this.

Hi everyone,
I am using treeview directory structure in one of my applications. I need to display the count in a bracket next to each parentnode and child node, i.e., how many elements does one node have( count to be displayed , before & after collapse)
this is a part of my code to create a parent node
For each RowBranch in myDS.Tables("branch").Rows
Dim NewBranch As new Microsoft.Web.Ui.Webcontrols.TreeNode()
NewBranch.Text = RowBranch("braname")
NewBranch.Id = RowBranch("branchID")
NewBranch.Type = "Branch"
NewBranch.NavigateURL = "javascript:var win=window.open('branch_detail.aspx?ID=" & RowBranch("branchID") & "','','width=400,height=400')"
TreeView.Nodes.Add(NewBranch)
next to each branch (parent node) and dept(child node) i need to display a count of how many elements are present in that node. eg:
Presently it is:
+Adelaide ------Parent Node(branch)
|_
+Finance----------Child Node(dept)
I want it as :
+Adelaide (2)------i need to do this,(the count of no of child items inside)
|_
+Finance(25)----------i need to do this,(the count)
+Sales(20)
Need it urgently.Any help is well appreciated.Thanks a million
Aartee.

Each node has a child nodes property. So use that to get a count, and append it to the text.

private void LabelChildNodes(TreeNode node, bool recurse)
{
foreach(TreeNode child in node.Nodes)
{
string count = string.Format(" ({0})", child.Nodes.Count);
child.Text = child.Text + count;
if (recurse)
{
LabelChildNodes(child, recurse);
}
}
}
If you call this function with the first node in your tree view, like this:
LabelChildNodes(treeView1.Nodes[0], true);
you'll get that label all the way down. If you pass 'false', you get it just on the top level. You can also add code to check if the label is there already and remove it, or not show a label if the count is 0, anythign else you'd like.

P.S. sorry, you'll have to turn this into VB, it's C#.

Hi again,
Looks like this solution will work excpet that I am getting the foll error:
"'Private Sub LabelChildNodes(TreeNode As Object)'."
I use Vb.net and I wrote your function as follows :
'************************************************************************<br />
Private Sub LabelChildNodes(TreeNode node, Boolean recurse)<br />
{<br />
Dim child As TreeNode<br />
For Each child In node.Nodes<br />
Dim count As String = String.Format(" ({0})",child.Nodes.Count)<br />
<br />
child.Text = child.Text + count<br />
<br />
if (recurse)<br />
{<br />
LabelChildNodes(child, recurse)<br />
}<br />
Next<br />
}<br />
<br />
End sub<br />
'************************************************************************
and called it here:
Function CreateTree(myDs as Dataset)<br />
<br />
'Create the Row Objects that are needed for the ForEach Loop<br />
Dim RowBranch as DataRow<br />
Dim RowDepartment as DataRow<br />
Dim RowPerson as DataRow<br />
<br />
'Run trough all Branches<br />
For each RowBranch in myDS.Tables("branch").Rows<br />
'Create a new TreeNode Object<br />
Dim NewBranch As new Microsoft.Web.Ui.Webcontrols.TreeNode()<br />
'Define a Text that is displayed for the new Node<br />
NewBranch.Text = RowBranch("braname")<br />
'Define a Id for the Node<br />
NewBranch.Id = RowBranch("branchID")<br />
'Give the Node a Tree Node Typ, so that the TreeNode Branch look different from department, Person<br />
NewBranch.Type = "Branch"<br />
'Define NavigateURL per Node, because new Page need the ID and retriev Data from the Database per ID<br />
NewBranch.NavigateURL = "javascript:var win=window.open('branch_detail.aspx?ID=" & RowBranch("branchID") & "','','width=400,height=400')"<br />
'Add the Node to the Tree<br />
TreeView.Nodes.Add(NewBranch)<br />
'treeview.nodes.add("key")<br />
---HERE--- LabelChildNodes(treeView.Nodes(0), True)<br />
<br />
'***********************************************************
Any further help?
Thanks a lot for prompt help, I am sure my manager will be happy at the end

I am completely frustrated… Trying to help a friend.
Here is what I have been trying to do.. I am a noob at visual studio.
I am setting up an inventory database using VB as the front end. I have setup an accounts table, product table. These I can view edit, delete, and ad records to fine.
I am trying to make an invoice. I have set up the following tables:
tblInvoice
InvoiceNum Primary Key
AccountNum Foreign Key For Accounts table
Date
Total Total cost of items
tblInvDetails
Invoice Number Foreign Key from tblinvoice
QtyOrdered Number of Items ordered
Item description From Product table
Item price From Product Table
Total Cost QtyOrdered * Item Price
So far I have a form that I can get Account information filled in from accounts, date Picker, item selector, invoice number.
I can pick an item select quantity click a view button to view the following in textbox:
Invoice Num QtyOrdered Product Item Price total item cost
All is well with that here is where the problem comes. I want to create a button to add items to tblInvDetails.
Once I figure this out I will work on totaling the Total items cost and, updating the Tblinvoice info and printing an invoice.
I can not get past this until I figure out the update.
Please help…

Where are you stuck ? Is it a table or a view ? I notice that it contains items 'from product table', surely this table would not contain that info, that would be insane. It should contain the ID from the product table so these things can be looked up.
If I were doing this, the button would bring up the product table so a product could be selected, then it would do the insert in the normal way, inserting the (known) invoice number, the quantity orderded, the product ID and the calculated price.

The way I set it up is most likely going about it the hard way I am very new at this. Right now I have it were the Invdetail is in datagrid view. In another part ai have it were you can bring up an item by UPC, Item Number or Item name then input the quantity desired. I have a click button that them brings that with the to texts boxes. My though behind this is that you can change it befor adding it to the InvDetail table. I am now trying to get this to update to the invdetail.
Bottom line is I am trying to make an invoice that can be saved. I want the to bring up the account information for adrress, from the account table then add items fromthe product table. Calculate, update account, save and print or save invoice.
If there is an easy way I am all ears, cause this is driving me nuts.
Thanks
Russ

Well, apart from the table changes I suggested ( based on what I think the tables look like ), it's just a simple insert command. Is that what you need help with ?

What's going wrong ? You obviously know how to write an insert statement, or you wouldn't have a database at all ?

Assuming that your using a DataAdapter object to connect to your database and that there is an insert command setup the following code should work:
Try
Dim newrow As DataRow
newrow = MyDataSet.Tables("MyTable").NewRow()
MyDataSet.Tables("MyTable").Rows.Add(newrow)
BindingContext(MyDataSet, "MyTable").Position =
BindingContext(MyDataSet, "MyTable").Count - 1
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try

Hello all,
Doing my first application to transfer to PDA's. I've looked and looked but can't seem to figure out the 'standard' screen size for most PDA's in 'twips'. I'm not sure how big to make my forms. I realize this is a rookie question but hey, "it's my first day man". I've done the math conversion of what I believe to be screen size in inches, to pixels, to points to twips but every time I get a resultant size that looks too big.
This is one case where 'size matters'.
Thanks

"EmployeeAddress" and "EmployeeName". the data is arranged by default according to EmployeeAddress but I need it according to Employee Name. How I can do this. when I am not Using DataGrid .... Only using text boxes and user clicks next button to get the next record.
how to put "order by" clause in the loaded dataset table

Hello,
I have difficulties in using a DLL I was given. So I can't modify the code of this DLL, but I know that it works, since I tested it succesfully with a C program (with the .h and .lib files that were given with it).
My problem is I have to call it in VB .NET.
Here is the function that I have to call in the DLL:
<br />
void myfunction(<br />
long * param_one, <br />
long param_two,<br />
unsigned char * param_three,<br />
unsigned char * param_four)
Parameters 1 and 4 are outputs and parameters 2 and 3 are inputs.
And here is how I declare and call it in my VB Code:
Private Declare Sub myfunction Lib "mydll" _<br />
(ByRef param_one As Long, _<br />
ByVal param_two As Long, _<br />
ByVal param_three As String, _<br />
ByVal param_four As String)
Call myfunction(a,b,c,d)
It seems the string input (param_three) doesn't reach the DLL, which I know from the return code (param_one). I've tested with ByRefs for the strings but it doesn't work either. Maybe is it a problem with the fact that these are unsigned char * ?
I am a brand new DLL user so I may have made mistakes... If someone has an idea, I would really appreciate it.

It depends on what the .DLL is doing with the string. If it's creating a string for return, then what you did should work. If it's expecting a string BUFFER passed in (which is what this looks like), you have to pass in a buffer for a string and not just a pointer to en empty string. The buffered version can be done with a StringBuilder instead of a String.
Private Declare Sub myFunction Lib "mydll" ( _
ByRef param_one As Long, _
ByVal param_two As Long, _
ByVal param_three As StringBuilder, _
...)
' To call the thing, create the buffer first.
Dim buffer As new StringBuilder( 512 )
myFunction( a, b, buffer, d )
You can get more information and techniques from here[^].

Thanks for your help.
Although I'm now using a StringBuilder, the parameter doesn't seem to get in the DLL...
I really wonder why this doesn't work 
|
|
|
|
|
For all I know the type of parameters three and four (string) should be LPSTR.
void myfunction(long * param_one, long param_two,LPSTR * param_three,LPSTR * param_four)
. . . we have same problem encountered when i create a dll in VC++, and it works when I used LPSTR, u can try this.
I hope it helps
