What I would like to do is to populate a drop down menu from a database.
First of all I plan to use a combo box.
I have created an object that contains the data that I need to take from the database. The object is as follows
namespace RLMD
{
public class FlashCardLevel
{
private int intFCLId;
private String strFCLName;
public FlashCardLevel(int intFCLId, String strFCLName)
{
this.intFCLId = intFCLId;
this.strFCLName = strFCLName;
}
public int IntFCLId
{
get { return intFCLId; }
set { this.intFCLId = value; }
}
public String StrFCLName
{
get { return strFCLName; }
set { this.strFCLName = value; }
}
}
}
What I need to do is to add a list of items from a database, but for ease of use I have simulated given some sample data.
public List<FlashCardLevel> Rifle(List<FlashCardLevel> fcLevel)
{
fcLevel.Add(new FlashCardLevel(1, "Severe"));
fcLevel.Add(new FlashCardLevel(2, "Moderate"));
fcLevel.Add(new FlashCardLevel(3, "Mild"));
fcLevel.Add(new FlashCardLevel(4, "Slight"));
return fcLevel;
}
I'm calling the method here.
List<FlashCardLevel> fcLevel = new List<FlashCardLevel>();
talkToDatabase.Rifle(fcLevel);
this.comboCardLevel.DataSource = fcLevel;
this.comboCardLevel.DisplayMember = "Name";
this.comboCardLevel.ValueMember = "Value";
The combobox is displaying no information.
I would appreciate any help
Updated:
The DisplayMember
Property should be referring to FlashCardLevel
(class), Property StrFCLName
and ValueMember
should be pointing to IntFCLId
.
List<FlashCardLevel> fcLevel = new List<FlashCardLevel>();
talkToDatabase.Rifle(fcLevel);
this.comboCardLevel.DataSource = listFromDatabase;
this.comboCardLevel.DisplayMember = "StrFCLName";
this.comboCardLevel.ValueMember = "IntFCLId";
The DisplayMember and ValueMember should point to your properties name.
this.comboCardLevel.DisplayMember = "IntFCLId";
this.comboCardLevel.ValueMember = "StrFCLName";
