I'll try my best...

It's like this:

I have an array (ex:test(1 to 100) as integer) and I would like to see all of the values of the array in a Label (or whatever) while executing the program ...

I would also like to change the values in the label (or Whatever) and the program automaticly changes the value in the array...

I'm trying to do my best here ... If you don't understand . please say..

Hello

You've got the array¿

If you want to display the info inside the array:

label1.Caption = CStr(test(0))
label2.Caption = CStr(test(1))

Is that what you are after¿¿

That works if you only want to display, and even so it only works for a small array...

the problem is I can't edit the values.. and subsequently change the values in the array (inside the program)...

other problem.. that could partialy be solved if I could insert in to a list ... is to show all the array in one object, with no limits (I could insert values, thus inserting in the array), or wiht a very high limit...

maybe this is a bit tough... but is necessary for my project to work!!!..

try this then:

VB Code:

'this should load tha array into a combo box
 
Dim i as integer
For i = 0 to UBound(test)
combo1.AddItem CStr(test(i))
Next i

**segrobiur** · May 25th, 2004, 11:44 AM

Actually I can't try it right now...

but ... by the way what does the cstr() do??..

..and Will I be able to insert values in the combo box thus inserting in the array??..

**HanneSThEGreaT** · May 25th, 2004, 11:48 AM

The CStr converts the Integers to strings.

try putting the array values into a text box with multiline property true like this

assume your array is s()

Code:

 
textbox.text = ""
for i = LBound(s) to UBound(s)
    textbox.text = s(i) & vbcrlf
next i

the text box will allow you to edit the values, then in a button click event, put the values back into the array using the split function

Code:

 
s=split(textbox.text,vbcrlf)

But what I'm trying to use is a 2 dimension array, does this also work with that ... is it possible to have more then 1 colum in the text box??

**agmorgan** · May 26th, 2004, 03:42 AM

What about using a flexgrid control instead?
There is code in the codebank on how to write to it.

**segrobiur** · May 26th, 2004, 09:02 AM

can you give me the link??...

I can't find it anywere!!!

**Shaggy Hiker** · May 26th, 2004, 09:08 AM

Another possibility would be to use two list boxes. The first list box holds the first dimension of the array, and when you double-click on one item, the second list box gets filled with the second dimension that corresponds to that first dimension. I think the tree view could do that, too, but I don't have much experience with that.

The flexgrid control would be most obvious, but being able to edit in it cleanly can take some trickery that might be more than you want.

**segrobiur** · May 26th, 2004, 09:22 AM

the two (or more) list boxes idea seemes great... how can I do it(in code.. please!!)?

I'm trying to build a 6 column display (list box or whatever)..

and what about that flexgrid control everybody talks about?? Where can I find it??..

However dificult.. I just want to learn!!!...

nice!

**segrobiur** · May 27th, 2004, 03:25 AM

come on guys ...

can you please give me the code (functions) for the flexgrid control or the 6 colums text box ...

PS: F.C.Porto Rules!!... Were EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS!!!!...

The Codebank is here

There are 2 good examples.
Martins is the simplest

But Tec-Nicos is more satisfying

**segrobiur** · May 28th, 2004, 03:55 AM

I used the first code, and it is great... You guys RULE!!!... (the second I couldn't make it work... neither could I understand it)

thanks a lot...

however there is still a little setback: I can't insert new cells while in execution mode, and neither can I save the changes...

I'm thinking to save the new value in the flexgrid_click sub function, when the user presses <enter> however I haven't had much success...

can you guys give a little push

(If possible in code

)

**segrobiur** · May 28th, 2004, 10:18 AM

is anybody out there???...
....
come on.. I know you know how to do it...
