I’m getting closer to what I want my little mortgage payment calculator program will do, but I’m having an issue determining the state of a checkbox in a listbox. Essentially, after you get your payment amortization, you should be able to click a checkbox to double up payments. But I can’t get that to happen.
Here is my checkbox code:
if mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxValueAt(selectedRow, selectedColumn) = mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxStateAt.Checked then
MessageBox “Checked”
else
end if
And here is my error:
mainWindow.Button1.Pressed, line 43
There is more than one method with this name but this does not match any of the available signatures.
if mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxValueAt(selectedRow, selectedColumn) = mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxStateAt.Checked then
I’ve searched the forum and the language reference but can’t seem to get it to work. Note that where the code says Messagebox “True” will hold other code in future.
mainWindow.Button1.Pressed, line 42
There is more than one method with this name but this does not match any of the available signatures.
if (mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxStateAt(selectedRow, selectedColumn) = DesktopCheckbox.VisualStates.Checked) then
and
mainWindow.Button1.Pressed, line 42
Type mismatch error. Expected Int64, but got enum DesktopCheckBox.VisualStates
if (mainWindow.ListBox1.CellCheckBoxStateAt(selectedRow, selectedColumn) = DesktopCheckbox.VisualStates.Checked) then
I thought, from what I read, that the value should be a boolean, but tried that and no go, and even an integer, but no change.
Here’s another way. This is another verbatim line from my app:
enabled = if (me.CellCheckBoxValueAt(row,0)=False, 0, 1)
enabled is an integer. The above is a more compact way of writing:
if (me.CellCheckBoxValueAt(row,0)=False) then
enabled = 0
else
enabled = 1
end if
By the way, if your Listbox1 and Button1 are in the same window, then you don’t need to qualify code in one which refes to code in the other, with mainWindow. You can leave that off.
I’ll give that a try. Just a quick question. I’m running xojo 2021r3.1. Is that what you are using? I’m liking it but when I am used to using Listbox for something and having to use DesktopListbox it is a little irritating… but I will learn!
