Hi all.
I will attempt to explain as best I can.
I have created a sql database which holds a few fields. One of the fields is the path to a photo stored on my hard drive which is related to the record.
When I move through the records I want the photo to load and display on my form, in the picture box.
I have created my form with the fields all on it, and the picture box. When I dragged the fields on from the Data Sources box a toolbar was automatically created that allowed me to navigate the records. I.e a previous button, a record count X of Y, a next button, an add button, a save button.
The fields all store the information ok, and the navigation buttons work fine. The problem I have is that I cannot get the photo to update after the record has been loaded.
This is all the code in my form:
Public
Class Form1 Private Sub PlantsBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PlantsBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click Me.Validate() Me.PlantsBindingSource.EndEdit() Me.PlantsTableAdapter.Update(Me.PlantsDataSet.Plants) End Sub Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'PlantsDataSet.Positions' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.PositionsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PlantsDataSet.Positions) 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'PlantsDataSet.PlantTypes' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.PlantTypesTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PlantsDataSet.PlantTypes) 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'PlantsDataSet.PlantTypes' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.PlantTypesTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PlantsDataSet.PlantTypes) 'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'PlantsDataSet.Plants' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed. Me.PlantsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.PlantsDataSet.Plants) If PhotoPathTextBox.Text = "" Then 'do nothing ElseUpdatePhoto()
End If End Sub Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.ClickOpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
PhotoPathTextBox.Text = OpenFileDialog1.FileName
UpdatePhoto()
End Sub Private Sub UpdatePhoto()PictureBox1.Image = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(PhotoPathTextBox.Text)
End Sub Private Sub BindingNavigatorMovePreviousItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BindingNavigatorMovePreviousItem.ClickUpdatePhoto()
End Sub Private Sub BindingNavigatorMoveNextItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BindingNavigatorMoveNextItem.ClickUpdatePhoto()
End SubEnd
Class
As you can see i have created a sub called updatephoto() when, when called, reads in the photo. The problem is that when I navigate the records it seems to read the photo in first, then update the record, so the photo is always of the record before!
I hope im making sense!
Thanks
Dan
