combobox questions!

[auxcom]

How can I select a combobox item w/o firing the SelectedIndexChanged

and

change a combobox text w/o firing the TextChanged events??

 

Thanks!

If you have the item selected in the combobox.. you can do:

 

 

msgbox(combo1.SelectedItem)

 

Hope that helps!

If you don't want these events, why are you handling them?

 

If you need them at a certain time, then declare a boolean that determines when you want to execute the event.

Private Sub CBx_SelIdxChanged(...) etc.
 If ReadyToSel Then
 End If
End Sub

There is a part of my program to re-initialize data entry controls to their defaults values like empty strings and no selected items.

And you can also remove and re-assign the event handler...

Remove and re-assign the event handler? Can you show how to do it?

[Arch4ngel]

cmb.SelectedIndexChanged += null;

cmb.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(MyFunction);

[auxcom]

cmb.SelectedIndexChanged += null;

cmb.SelectedIndexChanged += new EventHandler(MyFunction);

 

Look quite strange, Im into VB.

In that case look into AddHandler and RemoveHandler

basic syntax is

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
	AddHandler ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged
End Sub


Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
	RemoveHandler ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged
End Sub

Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
	'Your event handler here
End Sub

the addhandler will dynamically wire up the event at runtime while removehandler will un-wire the event handler.
