Question Drop Down Question

[r00t]

Okay, so i need to do the following: I want to have a drop down menu with the values:
Year 7
Year 8
Year 9

And i want to display different tables for each the values selected in the drop down menu.

For example, when the "Year 7" value is selected in the drop down menu, a table is displayed for that year.

Anyone have an idea on how i can manage this?

Thanks,
Nicky.

well you can add the:
Year 7
Year 8
Year 9

to the Items collection but as for the data table(s) I dont know what the structure is for that.

To add the items:

ToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add("Year 7")
ToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add("Year 8") 
ToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItems.Add("Year 9")

Then access them when clicked by:

Private Sub ToolStripMenuItem_DropDownItemClicked(...)
  If e.ClickedItem.ToString = "Year 7" Then
     'Do something
  End If
End Sub

And like JuggaloBrotha said if we don't know the structure we can't help with that part.

I would suggest handling the Click events of the individual items unless there is a lot of commonality among the actions for each item.
