I am trying to make a program that will have a different type of parent container, because I find the way of having it move freely around the entire center of your form to be obnoxious and annoying. My intention is to turn another control into the parent container so that it is smaller and I have more room for controls on the program. So, my question is how would I go about making it so that a different control would function as a parent container? If this is not possible I say that a group of us make a component for this!

I created a html document in which i added a predefined text in the textbox like "enter name here"
I created a function to delete the text when user clicks the input.
But , it had one problem that whenever user types his data and when he clicks the input then all his data is deleted. To prevent this used this method but this is not working , I don't know why.
here's the code

Which language do you use more often (VB or Java)?

Personally, since I started learning Java, I used VB more rare and rare until I strated developing games in Java. Since then, I haven't used Visual Basic.

Hey guys/gals,

So with the help of fellow members @ stackoverflow.com, I've been able to retrieve some data from my MySQL database and bind the results to a Combobox (ComboBoxCard) using the code below.

Now I would like to display the results of my query in some controls on my form (5 Textboxes, 1 Combobox, and 2 DateTimePickers) based on the selected value of ComboBoxCard. How do I do this?

The primary goal of this particular form in my application is to allow the user to update a customer's credit card information. Sometimes, a customer may have more than 1 card on file - which is why I needed a mechanism to display all cards on file and allow the user to use the Combobox to select which card to update. So, if there's a better way to do this please do not hesitate to suggest.

Thanks.

HERE'S MY CODE:

[code2=vbnet]Private Sub RetrieveMySQLdata()

Try
'FOR MySQL DATABASE USE
Dim dbQuery As String = ""
Dim dbCmd As New MySqlCommand
Dim dbAdapter As New MySqlDataAdapter
Dim dbTable As New DataTable
If dbConn.State = ConnectionState.Closed Then
dbConn.ConnectionString = String.Format("Server={0};Port={1};Uid={2};Password={3};Database=accounting", FormLogin.ComboBoxServerIP.SelectedItem, My.Settings.DB_Port, My.Settings.DB_UserID, My.Settings.DB_Password)
dbConn.Open()
End If

dbQuery = "SELECT *" & _
"FROM cc_master INNER JOIN customer ON customer.accountNumber = cc_master.customer_accountNumber " & _
"WHERE customer.accountNumber = '" & TextBoxAccount.Text & "'"
With dbCmd
.CommandText = dbQuery
.Connection = dbConn
End With
With dbAdapter
.SelectCommand = dbCmd
.Fill(dbtable)
End With
ComboBoxCard.DataSource = dbTable
ComboBoxCard.ValueMember = "ccNumber"
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("A DATABASE ERROR HAS OCCURED" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & ex.Message & vbCrLf & _
vbCrLf + "Please report this to the IT/Systems Helpdesk at Ext 131.")
Finally
dbConn.Close()
End Try

End Sub[/code2]

is it advisable to purchase synthetic formal shoes as I have heard that synthetics cause major fungal infections that could quickly spread to other shoes? I usually use leather but come across a pair being sold for a bargain and thought I would try them out.
