Assigning Text To A Masked Text Box?
Aug 24, 2009
I have a phone (and Zip Code) masked text box on a form. I am reading data from a SQL table. If I use the code at bottom in a lost focus call no errors are thrown but I see nothing in either masked text box. However, I tried a few things to understand whats happening. I inserted a standard text box on the form and sent the Zip Code value to it and it appeared in the box no problem. Also, if I use the following code: Zip_TextBox.Text = 01940 or Zip_TextBox.Text = "12345" in the form load it appears in the masked text box just fine. So I am not sure whats going on.
The code below is in the lose focus method for a combo box on the form. It all works correctly except for the Zip and the phone numbers fields which even though I called them text boxes they are masked text boxes.
'Reads the retuned data to the variable for later use in the insertion command
While VendorSearch.Read()
Address1_TextBox.Text = (VendorSearch("Address1").ToString())

If MaskedTextBox2.Mask.Substring(2) = "PM" = False Then
MsgBox("I have detected that you've put something else rather than AM or PM in the last two spaces.", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation + MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Error")

Basically I am doing a weekly assignment for unit 7 where I have to use Data bases.... I have everything going fine I used VB studio to set up most of my relationships between the Data base and VB.I have a text box called txtLast4OfSSN.Text that I need to get the last 4 of a social security number.
Now this should be simple I have another box ( a Masked Box for SSN) that has the SSN in it... This box is called m_SSN.Text....... Now I figured it would be easy, and that I could just use the Substring(7, 10) to get those numbers :*( However its not working and I am getting an error as follows:"Index and length must refer to a location within the string. Parameter name: length".Here is my complete code with my two buttons its mostly in the second event procedure that I have the code specifically for getting the last 4 of the SSN:

I am using a masked text box to format phone numbers. However, I do not want the extra formatting that gets insterted from the masked text box: (800)-555-1212
All I want is: 8005551212
But I still want the user to type it in like this (to make it easier for user):
(800)-555-1212
I am thinking I can run a replace function on it, but I am not sure what event to use. I found a number of tutorials, but not that useful for what I am doing. [URL]

I want to know how when you focus on a textbox in your form, how you get the cursor to go to the first character, instead of the middle/last/etc.

I have unformatted text in my SQL 2005 database. I'm pulling it into a masked edit text box with a (999)999-9999 mask.Unfortunately, when I attempt to save the data back it doesn't work because I don't know how to get the 'masked' information back to the 'unmasked' raw data that the database wants.

When populating the data into a date masked text box for display, I am not getting the zeros in front of the month and day resulting in the date 07/02/1974 displaying as 72/19/74.
How do I insure the month and day have the correct format before the masked tb gets filled. The data type in SQL is small date and displays in the table as 1974-07-02 vS2008 / SQL2008

I have a process which grabs the birthdate and from a data table and display them in a masked text box for viewing and editing However when pushing the data into the textbox any preceding zeros get removed For example 05/05/2005 would display as 55/20/05__
The masked Text box is set up as 00/00/0000 The line which assigns the code is:
MaskedTextBox.Text = Format(DataTable(0)("DOB"), "MM/dd/yyyy").ToString

I have a masked text box for postal codes. When the user clicks the text box it sets the cursor to where ever they clicked in the text box. Is there anyway that if the value is empty it sets the focus to the beginning.

Is the code I have that works but What would the IF statement be to check if it is empty? String.empty and "" don't work because I think it sees the mask as characters.

Before I start great forums, from what i've seen browsing unregistered this place is a treasure trove of information; however, after searching for what I need I could only find threads that seemed way to complicated or irrelevant, so...Essentialy I have created a program in which values entered are saved to seperate text files depending on which tab of a Tab Control they originate (from text boxes). I'm pretty new to VB but i managed to save the values of each text box to a .txt as CSV, essentialy all values will only ever be decimals (as currency) or dates. Example code for one of the .txt's:
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("C:UsersAndyDocuments
ResourcesTermInformation.txt", Me.tbTIAutTermWeeks.Text & ","
& Me.tbTISprTermWeeks.Text & "," & Me.tbTISumTermWeeks.Text &

I would like to create a filepath and assign it to a string (so that it can have yet more added to it later on in my program) the code takes (well i want it to but it doesn't) the name of a drive selected previously and then adds this to a string to create a string variable that refers to a file. and then (as usual) i want to use thes files and display them in a combobox but i want to only select files that have a pre selected 2characters at the front. I have got this code so far:
' search for filer drive NETAPP-1
For i = 0 To frmDatabase.drvDB.Items.Count - 1
If InStr(frmDatabase.drvDB.SelectedText(), "\Netapp-1malika", CompareMethod.Text) Then

I am stuck on how to assign values on a label or text box.The issue is the following:I have two tables, one called A and the second one called B.Table A has tree fields: id, name, lastname...Table B has five fields: id, level1, level2, level3, level4..The idea is to save A.id into level1, level2, level3 and level4. A.id can be the same or not. I know how to assign and save the values on the DDBB using DDL, but when I want to show the values using labels, I get the first value always, this is becuase the select command is configures in that way. If I use ddl instead label, it works, but I do not want to show the value using ddl. I want to use label to show the values, and ddl to modify or add new data into the DDBB.[code] As you can see the level1 uses label, and level2 uses ddl, it was the only way to get the value for level2, otherwise if I use label on level2 it display level1 value instead.I would like to know if there is any way to assign different value using anything but ddl.

This is a WinForms Application in VB. In my application I am trying to make it easier for the user to pick out items in a list quickly based on the items text color.. So I am trying to assign the color to each item using a select case statement as below... The problem is that I am getting an error saying "Public member 'Attributes' on type 'String' not found." VB flags the lines with the Attribute.Add param with this error.. Here is the code that I currently have...
For Each u In _units
_counter += 1
u_lookupNumber_box.Items.Add((Convert.ToString(u.UnitId)) + " - " + (Convert.ToString(u.perMonthCost)))
[Code].....
I did notice that when I did the .attributes part when I hit "." and typed "att" it did not appear in the intelisense box in vb.. Which makes me think I need to assign the name "attributes" somehow to the dropdownbox first.. It should be noted that u_lookupNumber_box is the name of the drop down box on my form..

I have a WinForms app with a multi-line textbox. This displays and retains (after loading from the DB) line break characters fine. However if I assign the TextBox.Text value to a string variable and then re-assign the variable back to the TextBox.Text property, the line break characters are lost and replaced with a square character (can't past them here as they just paste as a line break!)
