Hospital’s Drug Adding Form

Mar 11, 2025 by ADMIN 28 views

Overview

In this article, we will create a WinUI form for adding the details of a drug. The form will contain fields for Name, Administration, Specifications, and Supply. We will also include a Confirm button to save the drug to the record of drugs.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:

WinUI 3: You need to have WinUI 3 installed in your project. If you don't have it, you can install it from the NuGet package manager.
C#: You need to have a basic understanding of C# programming language.

Creating the Form

To create the form, follow these steps:

Step 1: Create a new WinUI project

Open Visual Studio and create a new WinUI project. Choose the "WinUI App" template and click "Next". Choose a project name and location, and click "Create".

Step 2: Design the form

In the XAML file, add the following code to design the form:

<Page
    x:Class="HospitalDrugAddingForm.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:local="using:HospitalDrugAddingForm"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    mc:Ignorable="d"
    Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">

    <Grid>
        <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
            <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
        </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
        </Grid.RowDefinitions>

        <!-- Name field -->
        <TextBlock Text="Name" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" Margin="10"/>
        <TextBox x:Name="txtName" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="0" Margin="10" Width="200"/>

        <!-- Administration field -->
        <TextBlock Text="Administration" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" Margin="10"/>
        <TextBox x:Name="txtAdministration" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1" Margin="10" Width="200"/>

        <!-- Specifications field -->
        <TextBlock Text="Specifications" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="2" Margin="10"/>
        <TextBox x:Name="txtSpecifications" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="2" Margin="10" Width="200"/>

        <!-- Supply field -->
        <TextBlock Text="Supply" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="3" Margin="10"/>
        <TextBox x:Name="txtSupply" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="3" Margin="10" Width="200"/>

        <!-- Confirm button -->
        <Button x:Name="btnConfirm" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="4" Margin="10" Width="100" Content="Confirm" Click="btnConfirm_Click"/>

    </Grid>
</Page>

This code creates a grid with five rows and two columns. The first column contains the field labels, and the second column contains the corresponding text boxes.

Step 3: Add code-behind

In the code-behind file, add the following code to handle the button click event:

using Windows.UI.Xaml;
using Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls;

namespace HospitalDrugAddingForm
{
    public sealed partial class MainPage : Page
    {
        public MainPage()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void btnConfirm_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            // Save the drug to the record of drugs
            var drug = new Drug
            {
                Name = txtName.Text,
                Administration = txtAdministration.Text,
                Specifications = txtSpecifications.Text,
                Supply = txtSupply.Text
            };

            // Add the drug to the record of drugs
            var record = new RecordOfDrugs();
            record.AddDrug(drug);

            // Display a message to the user
            var messageDialog = new MessageDialog("Drug added successfully!");
            messageDialog.ShowAsync();
        }
    }
}

This code creates a new instance of the Drug class and sets its properties to the values entered by the user. It then adds the drug to the record of drugs and displays a message to the user.

Conclusion

In this article, we created a WinUI form for adding the details of a drug. The form contains fields for Name, Administration, Specifications, and Supply, and a Confirm button to save the drug to the record of drugs. We also added code-behind to handle the button click event and save the drug to the record of drugs.

Future Work

In the future, we can improve this form by adding more fields, such as Dosage and Side Effects. We can also add validation to ensure that the user enters valid data.
