Changing A Unknown Textbox Location?

Nov 10, 2011

I'm developing a program at the moment and I'm trying to add the capability to add a texbox everytime you click a button. This is simple other than I'm trying to be efficiant as possible, so I made a sub that creates the textbox and the button calls the sub. Here is where it gets tricky I want the new textbox to move just below the previouse textbox, I'm not sure how to do this since Im only really createing one textbox over and over and having a variable name it by one. This souds confusing I know, but check out my code and it will make since. Really all I'm trying to do is change the location of a unknown textbox say since I create a textbox name textbox0 then when I hit the button again my varibale goes up by 1 which makes the new textbox, textbox1. how to I tell VB to change textbox1's location....

Code:

Public
Class
frmExpenses

'I made everything public because I'm runnings a test timer which are sending realtime data to some labels

Public i
As
Integer

Changing Unknown Number Of Label Captions Using Unknown Length Array

Oct 22, 2009

Using Access 2003 and VB code, I have created a form with a number of labels. The labels will display an employee's names. I have named the labels name1, name2, name3...etc. Using an ADO data set and DCount I have determined the number of names in an Access table (the number of names can vary). What I want to do is for each record in succession to pick the first name and surname from the data set , combine them into a full name (this part has been successful), and then set the full name into the label caption in succession. Example: full name 1 into name1, full name 2 into name2, full name 3 into name3... until all names appear as labels on the form.

I created a counter to and a variable to increment the label number but when I address the caption property of the variable containing the new label (e.g. name1, name2..etc.) it throws an errer at runtime. Here is the code:

Changing Arrays Location Values?

Apr 23, 2009

All variables and Arrays have been declared properly the problem Is when the user enters a new number using a scroll bar

LottoNumber = HScrollBar1.Value
Label2.Text = "Number Selected: " & LottoNumber

The out put of the variable count stays at 1 so the output stays at (Pick # 1 of 6) and doesnt increment at all and does not build the OutPut string

'IF The LottoNumber Location Value is 0 in the Array selectedLotto THEN mark it by making the Loacation Value to 1

How To Swap Textbox Content Or Location

Dec 22, 2010

I have 100 textbox exist on a form (10,10). I had used the following property of each textbox(.Text, .Tag, Tooltip, AccessibleName). I need to drag from any textbox to another textbox and they replace each other by the 4 content mentioned above. Instead, I managed to change the location of the source and target textbox by drag and drop which seems to be easier. I have 100 textboxes, I will not do a programming for each one putting a code at design time. there should be a way to do it by programming

The code I found to replace location between 2 textboxes is this
Private Sub tbfromMouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles tbFrom.MouseDown
tbFrom.DoDragDrop(tbFrom, DragDropEffects.Move)
End Sub

Use Textbox To Define File Location?

Mar 23, 2012

I need to be able to allow the user to type in a file name and folder location into a textbox then when you run the program (that the client makes) it will create a program in that location. The problem is that when it runs it says that access to the folder is denied. I Think it is because it is that there is a file with the same name as the folder. The input as of now i have it as "C:\Another Folder\Filename.exe" but when I do this it creates two folders (Another folder and Filename.exe)... I thought that you could do it using substrings and last index of but either i wasn't doing it correctly or it doesn't work. I want to be able to do this from one textbox.

dim rootname as string = textbox1
dim exename as string
dim location as string
dim thepath as string

I have a MDI form with different controls, two of they are multiline textboxes, and by default the form opens in normal state. Once opened, if I maximize the form all the controls location and size are as I wants (using the anchor property). And now comes the estrange error, if I have opened other form maximized, and then I open the first mentioned form, the multiline textboxes location is wrong, they are upper than the correct location.

Changing Fonts In A Textbox - VB In VS 2008 Pro

Aug 2, 2010

I am working on a a program that uses a textbox to display data from a telescope. Normally the data is standard ASCII characters, but there is one time when the data is displayed as blocks to indicate the number of degrees to go. The textbox font is set to Sans Serif in the property box. When I show the blocks, I want to switch to Wingdings. I have searched how to change the textbox font and tried several ways found, but none of them work. I know that the textbox will handle Wingdings - I can set the font property and it displays correctly.

The most common method I have seen is: txtDisplay1.Font = New Font("Wingdings",26.0, FontStyle.Regular) ,but like all the other methods tried, the font never changes.
