Question

Private Function ColumnEqual(ByVal A As Object, ByVal B As Object) As Boolean
  If A Is DBNull.Value AndAlso B Is DBNull.Value Then
    Return True 
  End If

  If A Is DBNull.Value OrElse B Is DBNull.Value Then
    Return False 
  End If

  Return A.Equals(B)
End Function

Public lastV As Object
...
For Each dr In wData.Rows
  If lastV Is Nothing OrElse Not ColumnEqual(lastV, dr("table1")) Then
    ''check if first value is nothing
    If lastV = Nothing Then
      lastV = "00"
      l = "0"
    Else
      dr("t1") = lastV
      dr("n1") = l
    End If
    ListBox1.Items.Add(lastV & " <--> " & l)
    lastV = dr("table1")
    l = 1
  ElseIf lastV Is Nothing OrElse ColumnEqual(lastV, dr("table1")) Then
    l += 1
  End If
Next

I use this code to loop through my DataRow.

It adds each record into a ListBox, but it does not add the last record in the DataRow to the list.

Any help?

Solution

If I understand you correctly, you want to add each column in the datarow as a new ListBox item in your ListBox.

If I'm right, then the following example would do it. I'd use a DataSet:

Dim i As Integer = 0
For j As Integer = 0 To wData.Tables(0).Columns.Count - 1
    ListBox1.BeginUpdate()
    ListBox1.Items.Add(wData.Tables(0).Rows(i)(j).ToString)
    ListBox1.EndUpdate

    If j = wData.Tables(0).Column.Count - 1 Then
        i = i + 1
    End If
Next

This will add the contents of each column in row i to the ListBox. The If statement stops it from incrementing i until it's added the last column.

Please bear in mind I haven't tested this code.
