Answered Making A My.Settings Bit Of Text Bold?
Aug 12, 2010
I'm using My.Settings to store some text information which will be displayed to the user under certain conditions. What I'd like to know is whether part of the text (not all of it) can be formatted in bold?
The reason I'm storing in My.Settings is because it can be customized but not to the extent where I need to store it in a database. And while I'm at it, is it possible to format parts of MessageBox text and labels in bold, or is this an all or not at all situation i.e. changing the font property?

I am making an application for my school library, which lets the user see how many books have been borrowed, how many returned, and how many that have not been returned. I am using My.Settings to do this. I have no problem saving the settings, or making them change according to how many books have been returned or borrowed, but when I try to load them into a few labels, I get an error.
[code]...
This is the error I obtain:Conversion from string "Books borrowed so far: " to type 'Double' is not valid.

I went and created a tab containing a good amount of controls, most of which are contained within what I'll just call the top-level group box. Now I decide I'd like the text of the top-level group box to be bold, but nothing else. When I set the top-level group box's font to bold, however, all of the controls contained within it become bolded as well, which is what I don't want. I can set each individual control's bold property to false, but it seems like there should be an easier way to do this.

if we say i have a program and i want it to launch another .exe So the code of them being able to choose where it's located is "openfiledialog".But can i make it save the setting somehow, so it makes a small document/text-file thingy so it can read the locations from the file ?Or is there someway that the program remembers it ? I want it to ask for a file location first, and then next time pushing the button "start" it remembers the location ?

I have a form that users record some event that is happening. They enter in what different things are occurring, for instance like a Basketball game. When certain events happen "steal", "score", "foul" these will get inputted to a listbox that records the whole game and is timestamped. However for these specific event i want them BOLD . So it would look something like
3:24 STEAL 3:25 #45 stole the ball, passed to #54
Or something like that. How do i get certain items to be bold?

I am donig some FindReplace in my app and I wanted to know if there was a way to bold the text that i'm "replacing".I've found other posts on Bolding text in a RichTextBox through a While loop but I wanted to do this in a string and the .Find is not an option for Strings.Here's my code sample:
Code:
FormatData = Replace(FormatData, "TEST" , "THIS SHOULD BE BOLD")

I just couldn't find the right words to say it but, the thing is, I just want to make a certain word inside a paragraph bold. The word will be automatically set to bold in runtime. See for example the words 'John' shall be all set to bold.
Here is the
tempstr = tempstr.Replace(vbTab, "")
Dim secstr As String = tempstr.Replace(Chr(10), " ")
str = Split(secstr, " ")
[Code]....
the output of the above code is, it only makes the first occurence bold. All other word "John" are just set to Regular text when what I want is to make it all bold.
What is lacking? I used the "for each loop" to visit all the words.

There is a label control on .aspx The text "hello" comes from database i.e. label1.text = "hello" Note that, I do not have permission to change the UI code.
I would like to alter the value of the field in the table to show the text as bold i.e. <strong>
To have the text displayed as highlighted i.e. bold, I manually modified the text inside the field of the table to show
<strong>hello</strong>
Is this ok? It does not seem to work because in the label control I see: <strong>hello</strong>

I have a vb.net project containing the report viewer control that has a dataset bound to it. I have designed a letter in report viewer and need to highlight a few words by bolding and underlining the words. Can this be done? All I seem to be able to do is bold the textbox control, but then every text that resides in the text box will be bold and underlined. I cannot create a static label because the names may increase or decrease in size as well.

i am using the following code to resize text.all you have to do is hold the Shift key down and scroll the MouseWheel either up or down..[code]i cannot seem to figure out, is how to keep the font options that were previously set ex.if i set a word to bold, italic, or underline, and use my shift + mousewheel to resize all or just selected text, all the options are reset to default, meaning, no options as previously selected..
