Detect When The Cursor Is In And Out Of A Textbox
Nov 19, 2010I am new to Visual Basic and i am using VS 2008. I have a form with multiple (7) text boxes. What i would like to accomplish is basically, when i click on textbox 1 a predefined message would load to label1 and when i click on textbox2 label1 would now displays a different pre-defined message and etc... I've tried using the "focus" parameter of the textbox but it doesn't work. So i am thinking of using the cursor as a way to solve my problem but i don't know how to work with it. I found a very similar thread titled " Detect when the cursor is in a textbox/typing in webbrowser?" on this forum but i don't think it applies to my situation.

Mar 28, 2010I'm using a custom webbrowser to display a special intranet for my company.I need to be able to display a custom keyboard whenever the user can type in the webbrowser. So if they click on a textbox within the page to type, this custom keyboard appears.when the user is in 'typing mode'. I thought maybe checking when the cursor changes to 'ibeam' which is the typing cursor? How might I do that, or is there an easier way?

Jun 25, 2011I am working on a carputer app, and it will be relatively basic with common tools. I am going to make an onscreen keyboard that fits the style of my app, but I want to make it a seperate application from the main app. All I want it to do is is have my keyboard become visible whenever I enter a text field of any application, whether it be programmed by me or a third-party app. Think about this in the way of a smart phone... Whenever you enter a textfield the system keyboard is displayed.

View 1 RepliesHow To Create Wizard Style Form(s)
Aug 15, 2011I have began building a piece of software that needs to collect a series of information from the user. This information will all be based on what has already been entered. I would like to create a window that has a "NEXT" button in it. As they enter information, they can click NEXT to continue on, similar to how an install wizard works.
My question is... Is there a form type that does this? Or must I create a window with a next button, and when it is clicked, I need to set the visibility of buttons/listboxes/comboboxes/textboxes/etc to false and new ones to true?

View 9 RepliesUsing Excel Style Pivot Table On DataSet In Form
Aug 23, 2011I have three tables, the extremely simplified versions of which are:
Practitioners:
practitioner_id :: int
name :: nvarchar
Insurances:
insurance_id :: int
name :: nvarchar
InsuranceLink:
practitioner_id :: int
insurance_id :: int
So, the practitioner table contains a list of practitioners, the insurance table contains a list of insurances, and the link table represents which practitioner supports which insurance. Now, I need to create a view which can display the information like this:
ViewTable:
practitioner_id :: int
practitioner_name :: nvarchar
insurance_1 :: bit
insurance_2 :: bit
.....
insurance_100 :: bit
In other words, the columns in the view are the ID and name of the practitioner, and every insurance that exists in Insurances (with the insurance name as the column name (there is an enforced condition that insurance names are unique)). The cells in the insurance columns will indicate if that practitioner supports that insurance. Or better yet, is it possible to use an excel-style pivot table on a DataSet in a VB.NET form?
