I want to have a msgbox when user press 'backspace' in the textbox.
I wrote this:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 8 Then
MsgBox("backspace")
End If
End Sub
Why it doesn't work?
I have a simple question regarding the KeyPress event. I'm trying to make it to where my TextBox on my form can only accept numbers 0-9, backspace and '.' /without quotes. I've successfully got it to accept numbers 0-9, accept backspace, I'm just wondering - what line do I add so that it can accept periods as well?
Here's my
Private Sub TextBox_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e _
As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles _
TextBox.KeyPress

I am trying to do an keypress event that only allows numbers, backspace, and enter. I have the part that only allows numbers
If Not (IsNumeric(e.KeyChar)) Then
e.Handled = True
End If
I need to know how to know what keychar the backspace and enter are.

I have built an addin for outlook that has a usercontrol shimmed into the interface. Everything works wonderfully EXCEPT for one textbox on one subpanel of the control. I have tried everything I can think of, but have not been able to resolve the issue:
The textbox *(A regular System.Windows.Forms.Textbox) functions as you would expect in any application with one exception. It will NOT accept the backspace key. So much so that the KeyDown, KeyPress, KeyUp events will not even fire when I press the backspace key. There does not seem to be any parameter suppressing it, and the control has focus. What is even stranger is that it works completely fine if you hold down the shift key while pressing the backspace key.

i am trying to make a program and i only want the user to be able to enter numbers and use the backspace this is my code so far.

I have made a textbox, which restricts character use to numbers and periods only. Nice, but now I cant enter backspace to amend any data typed in my textbox.
Private Sub TextBox10_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox10.KeyPress
Dim allowedChars As String = "1234567890."
If allowedChars.IndexOf(e.KeyChar) = -1 Then

Here's my code snippet:
Private Sub txtLogin2_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtLogin2.KeyPress
'// Ceci empêche l'utilisateur d'écrire des caractères ASCII ou même des espaces..
e.Handled = Not Char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar)
End Sub
It works fine and dandy except for one issue... the only way to delete text in the textbox using this is to highlight and hit DEL... But what if I wanted to simply back space... Any suggestions?

View 2 RepliesI have 3 text boxes that update with each other. One the user inputs the text, two the text is used for translation and instantly deleted, and three displays the translated text. If I need to backspace the code updates the translation adding double of each letter I delete. I need a way to skip all of the application code every time the backspace key is held. My current code here (full dictionary cut to save space).

View 3 RepliesI'm writing an in-house intranet application in ASP.NET and VB.NET. My 'customers' are beginner to medium-level users. All of our browsers are IE8 and above, standard.The application works great, except for one thing. The backspace key. When a user types an invalid number into a textbox, a RegularExpressionValidator and ValidatorCalloutExtender fire off and notify the user. Perfect. Except that, when the user closes the popup warning and notices the cursor is still flashing in the textbox, he/she feels it's time to hit the backspace key and delete that pesky field value.
Unfortunately, the browser interprets this action as a desire to go 'back' into the page history. My boss is screaming. His bosses are screaming. I have a headache.So, how can I turn off this behavior? I still need the backspace to eliminate characters in the textbox, but nothing else. Company policy here: Backspace is to delete characters from the screen. Nothing more, nothing less.

View 3 RepliesIs there any way to exchange backspace with delete key. I hav used this code in key_down event of rtb
if e.KeyCode = Keys.Back then
SendKeys.Send ("{DELETE}")
endif
but now it works as both backspace and delete.
You need to test for the backspace character, and if it's there, fix up the input.Maybe something like this:
If Right$(TxtQP.Text, 1) = vbBs Then
TxtQP = Left$(TxtQP, len(TxtQP)-1)
End If
Or is the backspace not showing up in the string, but as the input character kicking off your procedure?
Below is the code I am using to restrict user from entering any other characters except for the predefined ones. But using my code I cannot hit backspace.
