I have a button (btnAdd) that adds the content of a textbox (txtName) to a textblock (lblName). I want to add a date to the textblock when btnAdd is pressed but I want it to be a different font size and colour. So far my code looks like
lblName.Text = txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now
I only want DateTime.Now to be a different size and colour. Is this possible? Instead of a label I need to display it in a listBox. My new code:
listBox1.Items.Add(txtName.Text " " + DateTime.Now)
It's purpose is as follows:It basically is a "check list" for installed program's, and files. I image machines on a daily basis, and me making this application will save me hours, and hours of time.The basics:My program basically has 2 forms. 1st form, will be tabbed with "clients" or, different model of PC's. Each tab will have it's own checklist. I know how to pull external files already, though, that's not my issue.Basically, when I click "check list" button, it searches for an "adobe", and "Labtech" Directory. If it exists, it will throw the result into form2.richtextbox as Adobe is installed, or Adobe is not installed. Also, Checks if the second program directory is there, and then imports the info into form2.richtextbox on a seperate line. My question is, how do I change the color of the text per line?I.e. make Adobe is installed turn GREEN, and Adobe is not installed turn RED ect.
Form2.Show()
Form2.Show()
If Directory.Exists("C:\Program Files\ATI") Then

I am making a html editor in visual basic 2010 for Uni and i am coming across some problems.
I'm using the richTextBox because it is more editable for what i am doing. The first of my questions is: How can I change the colour of text.
What I have done so far is add a timer that will constantly check to see if the user has entered... lets say "<div>" then i want that text to change to a different colour... say red.
My second question is: Obviously in web dev when you write the <div> tag you have other content inside it like: <div id=""/> so how can i make the entire string between the < and the > or the <div> </div> become the same colour.
I know this is a really noob question but in my program when my button is enabled true/false I change the colour so i was thinking if there is an easier way to do this? or is the following the best way?

I know I'll have to change the 'BackColor' bit but I don't know what to. Is there something that turns all text on the form one colour or do I have to do it label by label?
Also I am can't figure out how to rotate labels to display text at a 60 degree angle (to display along the edge of an equilateral triangle) And for the triangle I have drawn it using lines which move independently from each other, is there anyway to 'group' these lines together so they are fixed.
Is there any way to change the default colour to the highlight when a listview row is selected? Apparently the default blue colour causes some problems for some users who have some visual eyesight problems. They didn't tell me what colour they wanted but they did indicated the blue is annoying.

I'm looking for a way to change the font colour on alternate rows within a datagrid. e.g. normal row would be green and the alternate row would be blue. I can change either by using
me.datagrid.Styles.Row.Forcolour
me.datagrid.Styles.AlternatingRow.Forcolour
The problem is that I am having trouble using both of them together as I need to manipulate both colours. I have created a HtmlRowPrepared event and have been setting them there, however, If I set the Row.Forcolour first, it will over ride the AlternatingRow.Forcolour and vice versa. This needs to be done via SEVER SIDE code only as the colour choices are held in the database.
I am currently working on a VB.NET project and the hardest thing that I am having trouble with is that everything is black and blue. Having worked a lot with C#, I really like the way that types are colored differently.
I have tried going in and having a look at the "Tools > Options > Fonts and Colors" and the various "User Types" under "Display Items" is set to a different colour but its not reflecting that colour in the text editor.
I am making a diary Form in VB.NET to do this I am using a listview with two columns.
Column 1 consists of a list of time and column 2 is the description
Can I change the colour of certain cells in column 2 only. So when I read in the data from the database it reads in the description and then puts the data in the relevant time slot but I want the recent cells of the description column to be a different colour.
I 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.

To .NET after getting tired of using VB6 due to the lack of functionality. I'm trying to create a log on method for a system which will involve users selecting a colour from a paint panel and then placing/drawing the colour in 1 or more tiles of a grid, basically a 3x3 grid in which for example they selected the blue colour and drew in the top left tile and the bottom left tile. The logon is selecting the correct colour and placing the colour in the appropriate tile. What i want them to be able to do is place even a single pixel of colour so it has a high accuracy. So far i have a timer which loops from the width of the grid to the height of the grid.
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick

To start with i have just hard coded the colour i want it to detect. At present it produces an error. Parameter must be positive and < Width the error is on System.Drawing.Point(i,j). If i place the mouse over the colour then run the program it will say it has been found, but otherwise it wont find the colour. I believe i am not updating the location of the pixel or something to that effect.
I've got a combobox which loads the system colour list, the selected colour is stored in the registry (i've tried storing the index number value aswell as the colour name - how can i get the combobox to display the stored colour as the default colour when the form loads?

How do you make the word you typed in the Rich Text Box change only the words color? Example:
Example Text
* Hello World
Bye World *
Some more Example text I tried this:
If RichTextBox1.Text = "Hello World" Then
RichTextBox1.ForeColor = Color.Blue
End If
But it changed the WHOLE textbox forecolor to blue. I don't want that, just for the word.
I'm trying to figure out how to change the font in a RichTextBox without having to select the text I want to change first. I know I can select text and change it like this:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("working")
Dim tfont As New Font("Arial", 16, FontStyle.Regular)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = tfont
What I want to do is set a font and then any text added to the richtextbox will use that font. Then I want to set another font and all text after that point will use that font and so on. I'm adding text to the RichTextBox with code, but I'd eventually like to add a RichTexBox to an app where the user enters the text and can change fonts like a word processor.What I'm try to accomplish would go something like this:
' Set the font for the header here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mHeader & vbCrLf
'Set the font for the body here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mBody & vbCrLf
