hi i have a wingrid that is populated at ran time, can i set a colum to use a combolist and the valuelist be populated with another query using the binding property ?
i know i can do this
Imports Infragistics.Shared Imports Infragistics.Win Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid
Private Sub Button9_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button9.Click If Me.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.ValueLists.Exists("VL1") Then Return
Dim valueList As valueList = Me.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.ValueLists.Add("VL1")
valueList.ValueListItems.Add(1, "One") valueList.ValueListItems.Add(2, "Two")
Dim column As UltraGridColumn = Me.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands(0).Columns(0)
column.ValueList = valueList
column.Style = ColumnStyle.DropDownValidate
End Sub
also modify this to
Public Sub AddValueList(ByVal WorkingGrid As UltraWinGrid.UltraGrid, ByVal ColumnName As String, ByVal ColStyle As ColumnStyle, ByVal ListName As String, ByVal SqlCommand As String, Optional ByVal BandNumber As Integer = 0) Dim DT As New DataTable Dim x As Integer
If WorkingGrid.DisplayLayout.ValueLists.Exists(ListName) Then Return
Dim valueList As ValueList = WorkingGrid.DisplayLayout.ValueLists.Add(ListName)
valueList.ValueListItems.Clear()
DT = CostPlanning.Conn.GetData(SqlCommand)
If DT.Rows.Count > 0 Then
For x = 0 To DT.Rows.Count - 1 valueList.ValueListItems.Add(DT.Rows(x).Item(0)) 'valueList.ValueListItems.Add(1, "One") Next
End If
Dim column As UltraGridColumn = WorkingGrid.DisplayLayout.Bands(BandNumber).Columns(ColumnName)
column.ValueList = valueList column.Style = ColStyle
but would like to do something like this
WorkingGrid.DisplayLayout.Bands(BandNumber).Columns(ColumnName).datasource = conn.getdata(sqlcommand)
is this posible? if yes can you provide me an example please
Thanks.
any idea or sugestion?
PAVCBC,
You likely want to use a BindableValueList object, which inherits from ValueList.
See the following forum post for an example, including two ways to set the BindingContext of a BindableValueList:http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/p/9977/39295.aspx#39295
