Add/Remove Rows and validating each cells in DataGridView Control

Add/Remove Rows and validating each cells in DataGridView Control

This project Add/Remove Rows and validating each cells in DataGridView Control is an advanced VB.Net (2010) code but it is a base implementation in every project.

Intended for input data in “One to Many” relationship, such as in sales products etc., by writing all Run Time code. Because of the flexibility to control the program for work as we want. This will make users feel to “Friendly used”.

It consists of locking the keyboard in each cell of the DataGridView. In case of an integer, it can only be numbered from 0 to 9. In case of a double value, it will be from 0 to 9 and the dot (.), but can only be pressed once.

Also, I’ve added a way to add and remove rows from a DataGridView. For each of you to study and apply together comfortably.

Data Grid employs the methods of a data source specified to the DataSource property to add and remove rows. Only if your data source supports such an API may you and your end-users add and remove Data Grid rows.

The ExcelDataSource, for example, is a read-only data source, so data editing in a grid tied to it is not possible.

If a Data Grid is bound to a data source that implements the IBindingList interface, the availability of row actions is determined by the boolean AllowNew and AllowRemove settings.

Lists with simple type objects (e.g., Liststring>) are not supported; instead, you must define a class with one simple type attribute. A default constructor for this class must be empty.

This is open source code Add/Remove Rows and validating each cells in DataGridView Control under @CopyLeft by Thongkorn Tubtimkrob. You can feel free to modify and/or distribute without to inform the developer.

Technology stack and requirements

To run this VB.NET project, you need the following on your development machine:

• Visual Studio 2019 or later. The free Community Edition is enough for building, debugging, and running the project.
• .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher. Most Windows 10 and 11 systems have it preinstalled through Windows Update.
• MySQL Server 8.0 or MSSQL Express 2019. Choose whichever your capstone panel prefers; both work with VB.NET data adapters.
• MySQL Connector/NET or SqlClient library. Add via NuGet Package Manager inside Visual Studio.
• Crystal Reports (optional). Required only if the project generates printable reports; install the runtime redistributable.

Installing the source code

The download link contains a ZIP archive with the full solution. Extract and set up in five steps:

1. Extract the archive to a folder outside Program Files (avoids permission issues).
2. Open the .sln file in Visual Studio. It loads the full solution with all forms and modules.
3. Restore NuGet packages. Right-click the solution then Restore NuGet Packages if prompted.
4. Import the database. Locate the .sql file in the archive and import via phpMyAdmin (MySQL) or SQL Server Management Studio.
5. Update the connection string in App.config or module code to match your local database name, user, and password.

How to use this project for your BSIT capstone

This VB.NET project maps cleanly to standard BSIT capstone documentation. Suggested chapter alignment:

• Chapter 1 (Introduction). Discuss the problem the system solves in real-world context. Cite Philippine business or academic use cases where a manual process could be replaced.
• Chapter 2 (Review of Related Literature). Compare this system’s features against 5-10 similar published projects. Cite journals like IJERT or IEEE Access for academic-standard sources.
• Chapter 3 (Methodology). Include Use Case Diagram, Data Flow Diagram, Entity Relationship Diagram, and Activity Diagram covering all major workflows in the system.
• Chapter 4 (Results and Discussion). Screenshot each module of the running system with a caption explaining what data it processes and which user role interacts with it.
• Chapter 5 (Conclusion and Recommendations). Identify features that could be added in a Version 2, such as web dashboard, mobile app, or REST API export.

Modules typical of Add/Remove Rows and validating each cells in DataGridView Control

• Master data. CRUD forms for the primary entities the system manages, with search and filter.
• Transaction processing. Data entry forms for the day-to-day operations the system automates.
• Reports. Formatted printable output summarizing activity per day, per user, or per category.
• User management. Login with role-based permissions (Admin, Encoder, Viewer).
