I'm playing with a simple string replacement editor for editing VB.Net functions outside of VB. Is there a way to apply VB.Net code formatting to a string?
For example. The txtboxCodeEntry looks like this:
If strVar="dummy" then 1 else 0 Endif
I would like it to "autoformat" to:
If strVar = "dummy" Then
1
Else
0
End If
The formatting would match whatever formatting VB.Net does when you're editing code in the Visual Studio IDE.
I am programming in VB 2010 and have a question. I have some code that currently only applies to one text box. As you will see, I have sub setup to handle multiple textbox events. My question being, Is there a way to take this code and apply it to all textboxes that are being handled?
VBCode:
Private Sub TextBoxes_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles fnameTxBx.TextChanged, _
lnameTxBx.TextChanged, streetTxBx.TextChanged, cityTxBx.TextChanged
Dim theText As String = fnameTxBx.Text

I was using VB6 and all my text formatting is stored in a database from the way VB6 stores it. How do I apply this formatting to a rich text box in VB 2010?

View 1 RepliesI have a RichTextBox with an OnChanged event. The OnChanged event should look at each line in the RichTextBox and if the line is of prime length colour it red, otherwise colour it black. How do I do this? I think it is possible to select from index a to index b and set selection colour, but I think this will lose my cursor position.
View 2 RepliesI have a MaskedTextBox using the mask "00/00/2�00" to restrict input to a format of XX/XX/20XX, with the Text property bound to MyBindingSource.SomeProperty of type DateTime.
Recently, values with a single-digit month or day recently started displaying incorrectly. I expect that the ToString() method is being called on the value at some point in data binding, and I believe the call is not padding month / day with zeroes.
I tried setting the format type of the MaskedTextBox.Text property to DateTime in the advanced data binding properties, but it didn't help.
How can I apply ToString("MMddyyyy") when converting the DateTime object to a string, before the value is bound to the Text property?
I am currently writing a program in Visual Basic 2008 express edition to read and write to tags on an Omron PLC. I am using the DeviceXPlorer OPC Server V4.1.1.1 program to connect to the Omron PLC. I have made two programs, one is a form program which works fine, two is a windows service program where it does not let me connect to the OPC Server. The connection code is identical, the only difference is the windows service code is called by a timer. The timer works fines and jumps into the connection code, but stops at the line

I was using VB 2008 to code using applications. An example of something I coded was hangman. I was wondering if its possible to somehow use the application code and apply it to a form.So for example with the code below how would one go about putting into a form? If this isn't possible, what are the main difference between form/application coding? How would I go about coding hangman for example on a form, what are the main difference between the two??

Between testing sessions on my windows service, I'm changing code (little tweaks here and there). For more detailed debugging, I've had the application send messages to a text file everytime it does something (executes a new procedure, catches an exception, etc).
I've been doing this for a while, but ever since yesterday, it appeared that the new code wasn't being used. To test this, I changed the name and location of the log file that the service would use, and re-installed it shortly after a new successful build. As it turns out, the service is writing only 1 message (about a timer being started - which is only supposed to happen after it's logged the start of the service) to the old text file. It looks to me like my service isn't using the new code in my Service1.vb file, Like the old code has been cached or something, and the service is installing from that.

View 6 RepliesI want to format several textboxes so that they would accept a decimal number like 2356.90. Now, let me first describe to you how I designed the designers view.. or rather I am going to attach what I did.
Ok... first the textbox SUM OF THE BILLS i would want to display two decimal point places.. so that when a person clicks the click for sum button, it calculates the sum of the bills and places it in the textbox. I got this code so far...
Code:

txtJanuaryBillsSum.Text = Format(Convert.ToDouble(txtJanuaryBillsSum.Text), "####.##")

Everything was fine and it was running ok but when i added the code for the format of the textbox I suddenly got that error.
Example:
Format(781234.57,) 781235
Format(781234.57) 781234.6
Format(781234.576) 781234.58

I'm having trouble getting a numeric format out of a textbox.I can do this in the textbox validating event, but I need commas to be entered into the textbox as the user actually types the data, not after they leave the textbox.. the reason is that they are typing really large numbers and can easily lose track of 0's or the total number if there are no comma seperators.I tried to do this through the keydown event in the textbox, but that doesnt work the comma gets inserted but the cursor goes into the begining of the string so anything new i type goes ahead of the old stuff.is there really no formatting on the properties level of a textbox??? how can there be no datamask?

For BOTH of these text boxes, the TEXTCHANGED action will multiply the two and present the result in a LABEL.This works 100%.NOW - If I choose to add formatting to either of these text boxes, the calculation will not work. As one might guess, QUANTIY is formatted as NUMBERIC with zero decimal places and VALUE is formatted as CURRENCY with 2 decimal places.

I've made a user control (http:url.....)I'm trying to format the text based on the data type e.g.:
Date
Numeric - 2 Decimals
Numeric - 0 Decimals
String
Now, I've added a property so that the user can decide at design time, what format he wants for the textbox. I've also made the options an enum. And then the coding in a sub. But not sure what I have to do with the sub.When I put it in the TextChanged event, then I get the weirdest behaviour from it.LIke when I typed in 1234 on Numeric0Decimals, after I typed 4, the cursor jumped to the first position of the textbox...On type Date, I just type in 2009/08 and then again it just jumps to the front and set the text to 01/08/2009 .So obviously can't place the sub in the textchanged event...
Private msTextConversion As TextConversionOptions
Enum TextConversionOptions

I'll obviously still change my sub to make sure that the text entered is numeric,or string, or valid date etc. Just didn't get around that part yet.

View 3 RepliesSo I'm using a plain TextBox to display output from an ongoing background process. I've created a 'report string' that displays in my textbox like it has 3 columns; there's a VariableName, a VariableValue, and a VariableEffect (showing how applying that variable to the process affected it).In my textbox, any VariableValue entry that has 17 or greater characters gets 1 tabstop between Value and Effect; any entry 16 or less gets 2 tabstops, and any value 7 or less gets 3 tabstops which very neatly lines up the 3 columns.
