Replaced textboxes with comboboxes - now I get "An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in *****.exe"
I have a Windows form that previously contained custom AutoComplete functionality and was tied to about 15 textboxes. I just finished stripping those textboxes and replacing them with standard unbound comboboxes with AutoComplete turned on.
EVERY time I open the form, access a record or two. THEN I close and reopen the form. WHEN I POPULATE EITHER THE FIRST OR SECOND RECORD AGAIN....StackOverflowExce
I don't ever use comboboxes. So there are several things to note that I may or may not be doing correctly when using VB's combobox.
1) With my original autocomplete, I never performed a cmbobox.DataSource = dv, combobox.DisplayMember = "id", cmbobox.ValueMember = "desc" etc. until the textbox was active. Also, my autocomplete used a listbox instead of a combobox. Now, I create With combobox.DataSource etc. for ALL of these comboboxes on FormLoad. Is this appropriate or should I do this individually only when each combobox is accessed?
2) When I populate the form using a dataview I populate the comboboxes with the .SelectedValue and not .Text. It eleviates having to join all of these tables to my main table in a SQL select. Is this inappropriate? Should I set .Text?

We need to see some code. Does it throw the exception on a specific line? You may have to step through the code to find out.

No it's random.
I'm about to modify my PopulateFields sub where I'm populating with cmbobox.SelectedValue and switch to cmbobox.Text as a test
Have you ever seen an issue with this?

Your question is like "my car's engine turns off randomly occasionaly. What could be the problem?". There is no specific answer to this question other than "something may be wrong with the engine"!

Please don't take offense to this, but let me put some things into perspective.
Many of us users would spend countless hours beating our heads against the desk attempting to resolve issues we have never been exposed to were it not for people like yourself devoting time to help us on Experts Exchange. And I realize that Guru's, Master's, Sage's, etc. don't know everything about VB, but you're level of experience/exposure WAY outways many of ours.
On your profile....
>> I have been programming for about 10 years. I have worked with .NET since version 1 and all the versions of Visual Studio.
>> 04/03/2011: 5 million points in VB.NET
This, in my mind, gives me full expectancy....actually HOPE....that if there is a general issue with or it is programmatically inappropriate in VB.NET to "populating a combobox value using .SelectedValue instead of .Text" you would know.
You've actually solved a # of my issues yourself. And I appreciate ALL of your help.
So this wasn't the reply I was expecting..... :)

I understand what you are saying but I gave the engine analogy to say that it could be anything. There are many many ways of doing the same thing in programming world so I can not say what's wrong with your code unless I see the code.
>that if there is a general issue with or it is programmatically inappropriate in VB.NET to "populating a combobox value using .SelectedValue instead of .Text" you would know.
Now are you populating from a SQL Server database? Access database? XML file? List of Strings? populating using a datareader? using a datatable? using a LINQ query? Do you get my point?

I understand.
Included is my Form_Load, BuildTablesAndViews, PopulateFields & the stored procedure for use in PopulateFields.
I have already changed the cmbo**.SelectedValue to .Text
I also just tested it 5-6 times...... AND I DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM ANYMORE.
I put them back in as .SelectedValue and the issue came back.

Wow. How long does this form take to load? Are you using a tab control? Show a screenshot of UI. My initial though is that you are calling too many methods.

Sorry for the delay. New Windows 7 machine. My CaptureEZE Pro will not save. Had to use alternate PC.
On this new I5 machine...takes 1 second to load. P4 3ghz...takes 3 seconds.

In my forms, when I use tabs, I load tabs on demand. I only load 1st tab in form load and then load rest of the tabs when the user selects a tab (user may not look at any other tab and you are loading 9 tabs)
ASKER
Did you notice that only two tabs are enabled???
Once a valid record has been chosen, I enable all of the tabs. However, until the tab has been selected the first time, do I load up any dataviews or gridviews with data.

I did.

Do you mean "Should I populate all the dataviews?" ?
I did.

Sorry. Needed to phrase it a little different. I DO NOT load dataviews or gridviews with data until selected the first time. My bad.
I was also about to write....I do load dataviews and set datasources for comboboxes on the second tab initially in Form_Load/BuildTablesandVi

Once again, I need to re-phrase. I do not load/refresh the dataviews or gridviews with subsequent data on the other tabs unless it that tab has been clicked or is the ACTIVE tab when selecting a new member record. Note the included code.

No problem.

How in the #(*^! do you do this? I was unaware you could do this. Can you provide a short example/link.
Something tells me this is where using a table# or tablename in the following comes into play.
dt = ds.Tables("table_name" OR #)
3) I see you have a bindingnavigator on top but you are populating the details manually using the stored procedure. What is going on there?
I attempted to use a bound navigator (?) in VB and had immortal problems with it. At the time I was just getting my feet wet with VB. Could be a completely different story now. If you want me to start another posting(s) for #2 & #3 for points/effort, I will be glad to.
Just continuing to use what I learned starting in 2006. Probably could optimize many things if I was better versed.
Thanks.

This is called Multiple Active Result Sets (MARS).

For point 3, you can use the navigator if same form is being used to edit multiple members by just navigating around but if you are using a form with grid and then opening this form with details then you dont need the navigator. Also, you are using a datatable to load the single member details, datareader would be more suitable choice in this scenario.
ASKER
I'm excited about the multi-table capability to the point that the words are getting blurry. :) Very much appreciated.
I only have one concern. I allow the user to add values to 4-5 of the comboboxes by activating a messagebox & combobox field-specific form for validation. This wouldn't happen very often at all, but I'm assuming I would need to refresh the dataview I use during Form_Load associated with the MARS in order to update that specific table rowset.
>> For point 3 (DataReader)
If I'm reading properly and to respond.
I DO have a "Search Members" form which can be the starting point. A user can perform a search which filters a list of member recs in a grid. Then the user can double-click on one of those rows in the grid which will then activate the "Member Entry" form we have been working with.
Also, if the starting point IS the "Member Entry" form, I have a 'Browse' button on the button menu that will pull up a separate "Browse Form" with all the member records in a grid. The selected row will be the row for the current "Member Entry" form record. The user can then move up and down through the grid, double-click on another row...which in turn re-activates the "Member Entry" form and with the Form_Activated sub I re-populate the form with the newly selected member record.
To Note....
The "Search Members" form remains open when a user double-clicks a row and activates the "Member Entry" form. I refresh the Search form upon update of member rec.
The "Browse Form" does not stay open when a user double-clicks a row.
Also, I did know I could populate member details from the datareader if I was using it.
I only have one more issue with the best/most efficient way to refresh the datareader recordset upon update of the current member record. Just refresh the recordset bound to the reader?

Your member entry form can then be switched to using a DataReader. I am not sure how much difference it would make with regards to resource requirement though.
Not sure if I understand your first part.

I think I would stick with the way I handle my navigation between recs. It works well, and I don't think it requires much in the way of resources. The only thing is that I wouldn't be able to eleviate the need for manual SQL select on populating member details. May have to test it.
Otherwise, we'll leave it at that.
Thanks for all the time invested.
