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'm adding text string into a list box together with data retrieved from text box, and I wanna bold that text but really don't have any idea how to do so.
E.g. listProducts.Items.Add("Product Name - " & textProdName.text)
I just wanna bold that first bit of text in the quotes.
as per title, I want specific lines in listbox as bold or with colours.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim xyz() As Byte = {&H1B, &H0, &H10, &H1B, &H0}
ListBox1.Items.Add("XYZ: " & read_write_str(deviceHandle, xyz, xyz.Length))I get reply from device for i.e. 1234567890, I want this to be in BOLD or if I could add colours to it.
I have made a little application for me and my friend to be able to chat with eachother, but now we have some unclear strings as you can see on the image below:
I would like to change for example the username or time date to a color or make it bold, could anyone tell me how to change ONLY that and not everything? I'd love to have such a thing as it makes the whole application way 'clearer'.
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.
I'm trying to find out an easy way of bolding a string of my stringbuilder...if that is even possible.The stringbuilder eventually passes all the text to richtextbox..I'd like to bold this string
sb.AppendLine("--------------------------------") and also sb.AppendLine("Results for " & finalname)
i am using visual studio 2005.I have a few questions about listbox and openfiledialog, hoping to have some answers.I am creating a picture viewer, and so in my listbox I have put 3 defaults pictures, say namely 'X', 'Y', and 'Z'.Then there is this Insert button that allows user to insert new picture and added into the listbox.So here comes the questions:1. In the Insert button code below, I have made it such that whenever a picture is insert, it will displays out the picture in the picturebox and its name in the listbox. So how do I make the listbox to move its highlight to the newly insert picture?
Private Sub btnInsert_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnInsert.Click OpenFileDialog1.FileName = "" OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "JPEG | *.jpg" If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then MsgBox(OpenFileDialog1.FileName & " has been added into playlist") ListBox1.Items.Add(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
[Code]...
3. Lastly for the openfiledialog. As a new picture is insert, the name displays in the listbox is 'C:Documents And Settings......' which is the location of the file. Is it possible to limit it to displays only the filename, and not the location?
I'm using VB.NET 2010 When I try to add the items from a listbox to a textbox, I get a strange combination at the beginning of the textbox, but if I read further, the actual combination that I want is at the end.
So let's say I have 3 integers in my Listbox like: 01 02 03 And I want these three items to be in the Textbox like this: 01 - 02 - 03
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.
I'm trying to have a feature in my application where every time the user presses the "-" key the word directly before it becomes bold. This much I've been able to figure out:
I have a ListBox that is only about 4 lines high. After I add more than 4 Items, it attaches them to the bottom of the list outside of the viewable area with out scrolling. Is there any way to either add items to the top of the list or make the latest item visible? I want to keep all the items in the list in the order they were added whether it is oldest to newest or newest to oldest.
I have a form where i can enter new product. In that same form i have listbox where i show the current product from the database.
I want to know how to update that listbox as i enter new product into the database so that user can see the current content of the product table.
my code to load the listbox
Try Dim ds As New DataSet Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand
[Code].....
To sum it up, what i want is something that will refresh the current display of the listbox so user can see the actual and updated contents of the database.
with the above code, the newly entered product/data can only be seen when the program is closed and reopened again. Which is not very convenient.
I currently know how to click a button on the application and when I click it, it invokes the OpenFileDialog Event or Object. After It Opens the Open File Dialog, I am able to select only ONE file from a location on my computer. After I click that Single File on my computer, I press the Okay or Open Button on the Open File Dialog, and then it adds that items to my list Box, knows as PlayList_00 and PlayList_01.
Here's what I got so far.
Private Sub addBTN_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles addBTN.Click OFD.InitialDirectory = "C:Movies" OFD.ShowDialog() PlayList_00.Items.Add(OFD.FileName)

'I have built a Movie Play List, for my Windows Media Player.'But Selecting One item at a time is just fine, but I would really 'enjoy being able to select more than one item at a time, and then 'adding them to my ListBox(s).
Display a Dialog Box that asks for some user input. Take that input and add a new entry to an access datatable. Refresh a List Box that displays the Keys from the datatable. Steps 1 and 2 work just fine. After the following method is executed (without closing the program) I can open the Access Database and the data has been stored to the datatable.[code]...
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'm writing a simple program that outputs a report to a text file with code similar to below PrintLine(1, "Hello", "World") my question is how to format the text so it can be saved as courier new or bold? frustrated visual basic user
