Why this happen in vb.net user control use in form

[PinkalPatel]

Window Application

UserControl Contain two combobox and Gridview Control .

I ran your code and your right it doesn't work.

I changed your cmbMonth.selectedValue to cmbMonth.SelectedIndex

Moved your valdating if statement to the top of the sub, which does nothing but clean up the code a tad.

It works. At least it changes the calendar when you change the month.

Hope this is what you needed.

Private Sub FillCalendar()
        If cmbMonth.SelectedIndex = -1 OrElse cmbYear.SelectedIndex = -1 Then Exit Sub

        Dim dtCalendar As New DataTable
        Dim intMax As Integer = 0
        Dim blankRow As DataRow
        Try

            Dim month As Integer = CInt(cmbMonth.SelectedIndex) + 1
            Dim year As Integer = CInt(cmbYear.Text.Trim)

[Unhnd_Exception]

Another thing.

Your bindMonth Sub where your trying to bind a row with a month and year and obtain it with the selected value can go away. Its not going to work and theres no point.

You can shorten the same thing to:

Private Sub FillMonth()
        For i = 1 To 12
            cmbMonth.Items.Add(DateAndTime.MonthName(i))
        Next
    End Sub

Heres an example of the display member with a combobox if the id isn't the same as the index like the month above.

If you add and object to the combobox you can set the display member to one of the properties and access it through the combobox.selecteditem property.

This doesn't work for a datarow.

Add a class with a name and id property.

Public Class NameAndID
        Private _Name As String
        Private _ID As Integer

        Property Name() As String
            Get
                Return _Name
            End Get
            Set(ByVal value As String)
                _Name = value
            End Set
        End Property

        Property ID() As Integer
            Get
                Return _ID
            End Get
            Set(ByVal value As Integer)
                _ID = value
            End Set
        End Property

        Sub New(ByVal Name As String, ByVal ID As String)
            _Name = Name
            _ID = ID
        End Sub

    End Class



 Private Sub FillMonth()
        cmbMonth.DisplayMember = "Name"

        'fill the combobox with name and ids
        For i = 1 To 12
            cmbMonth.Items.Add(New NameAndID(DateAndTime.MonthName(i), i))
        Next

        cmbMonth.SelectedIndex = 3

        'access the properties through the selectedItem
        With CType(cmbMonth.SelectedItem, NameAndID)
            MsgBox("Name: " & .Name & "  ID: " & .ID)
        End With
    End Sub
