I have a access database with several pieces of information. I am using Visual basic to take the info and put it into order in a table. the code i have is this :
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.OrderByOn = True
Me.OrderBy = "date, arm_no"
the field Arm_No comes back a number 1-4. Arm_No is a field that is in the database. To make the table easier to read id like to bold the arm_no that come back 1 and 3.

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'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.
In VB.NET 2005, when you entered a closing bracket in your code, the corresponding bracket on the other side became bold so that if you had lots of brackets you could easily see where the corresponding opening bracket was for a closing bracket (and vice versa).I found this feature great, but it seems to have been removed in 2008. Why? Is there any way to get it back?

I'm trying to set a subitem in a listview to bold and a different fore colour. But it doesn't appear to be working, it's not throwing any errors either
lvServers.Items(i).SubItems(4).Font = New Font(lvServers.Items(i).SubItems(4).Font, FontStyle.Bold)
lvServers.Items(i).SubItems(4).ForeColor = Color.Yellow
If it makes any difference, the listview mode is set to "Details". I've also tried refreshing the listview and it makes no difference.In case it matters here is the partial block of code that snippet comes from:
For i = 0 To UBound(strWorldChunk) - 1
If IsNumeric(lvServers.Items(i).SubItems(4).Text) = True Then
If lvServers.Items(i).SubItems(4).Text = intFreeEmpty Then

I have two text boxes on my form. Textbox1 and Textbox2. Textbox1 will contain information. I want to code my button to read textbox 1 and put it into a string or some way for the app to read the textbox and store the information into it's memory.Then I want to be able to read that string into the second part of my application.
a). read the textbox into a string using a streamreader and then use a streamwriter to write the data into a string?
b). save the textbox to a .txt file then use the openfiledialog to read the text file into a string to use?

Is it possible to read a string and call the method of the same name?For example: I have many buttons and if the user presses the button named A1, I want the Sub AI() to be called. I don't want to do an explicit If-Then for each button. Rather a common ONCLICK method that is called by all buttons and another method (the same name as the name of the button) is called.
Example:
Sub Click(byVal buttonName as string)
call ButtonName ' <<<< Error. ButtonName is string and not a Method.
End Sub
I'm trying to read a byte array into a string however it's array is filling up from a dll in the following format. [Code] now its decoding the first byte but I think because of the next [0] it's not completing the whole array. This is the code that I'm using:
Radiotext = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(szRetRDS)
I did think about writing it into another byte array excluding the [0] but unsure how I would go about this.
I have a feeling it is an easy one, but for the life of me i cant figure it out. My project at the moment is to grab content from a website and use it in some way (havent worked out this part yet, still trying to get the data).
Currently, i have grabbed the whole website and written it to a text file.. No dramas there. Then i read each line until i find a certain string... Again, no dramas. MY problem is; after reading and finding the certain string, i want the program to grab whatever "characters" there are until it reads a certain string again, and then put those characters into a string for later use.
so for example:
READ WEBSITE...
CREATE TXT FILE...
