I would like to create a button that clears textboxes and comboboxes when it is clicked. For example when 'btnClear' is clicked then txtDate gets cleared (i.e. txtDate is 22/05/2000 then when btnClear is clicked it has nothing in it)
I have already tried
txtDate = ""
and
txtDate = Nothing
but an error comes up.
so yesterday this code was working for my userforms and today its not. Its a simple clear command for textboxes and comboboxes. what is from here?
Dim ctl As Control
ForEach ctl In Controls
IfTypeOf ctl Is TextBox Then ctl.Text = ""
IfTypeOf ctl Is ComboBox Then ctl.Text = ""
Next ctl
I was looking for some better way of coding to populate all text boxes and make them visible once a button is clicked. I have a letter like format on a page with labels displaying address, name etc and it was recommended that on this page some of the information should be able to be edited. The idea I had was to keep the labels displaying the information but then when the edit details button is clicked the labels disappear, text boxes will appear and be populated with the same text as the label to allow the user to edit the details.
I seem to repeating lines of code but changing one thing each time on page load
Dim Sname As String = Request.QueryString("Name")
lblStuName.Text = Sname
tbStuName.Text = Sname
tbStuName.visible=false
[Code] .....
On edit button
tbStuName.visible=true
tbAddress.visible = true
etc..
On the save button
sqlStatement = "UPDATE StuTable SET Name = '" & lblStuName.Text & "', Address = '" & lblAddress.Text
My code seems very repetitive in many parts, I was looking for a better coding style to do this.

I have developed a simple form with some checkboxes, textboxes, radiobuttons, and textboxes inside a groupbox. Initially I had all of this inside 3 tabs. I created a button to clear all selections so user can restart the process of selection if so choses. It does not work (see below). I thought it is the tabs - so I went on and removed them (by coping the groupbox - deleting the tabs and then pasting the groubox into the main form). The code still does not work. Is there a setting that I must change or something else because a created a simple form with a couple of groupboxes that had all the above mentioned and it works just fine - all of them clear. Just in my form it does not work
View 6 RepliesWhen clearing input from users. What is the difference between clearing it in these two forms
txtExample.Clear()
versus
txtExample.Text = String.Empty
The only difference that I could find was that the labels aren't cleared with .Clear() (or at least from what I inferred from my book that's not possible). Is there a noticeable speed difference or should I just clear both labels and txt boxes with String.Empty
I have several textboxes in a form, and have a button which inserts all the values in a Database and I have to clear the content of all the textboxes and focus to the first one right after pressing the button.Now I can easily do that using the Clear method of each of the textboxes but it takes 10-12 lines of code just for that. Can I do that in one go?

I have already done the creation of button and the dragging of button at runtime already.But now i need to know how do i save the last dragged button on the form and also detect the name of the last clicked button.so lets say i now drag a button to coordinates 25,254. so when i exit the form and the next time i launch it, the button will still be at 25,254. and this one will go on for the number of button i created like 100. so when i launch the form the 100 button will be at the exact position where i last saved them.the second part is lets say i created button1 and button2 on the form in runtime. so when i clicked the first button, it should display button1. and if i clicked on button 2, it should say button2. same goes for like 100buttons.

this is a subset of a previously posted problem, I have narrowed down my issue and am reposting a question from this thread: [URL] I have apparently confused the compiler by renaming some comboboxes in Visual Basic .net express? (See relevant code below) I think the confusion is in who should handle what, with two routines named with variations of ComboBox1 and one handling the other ( it confuses me just trying to interpret it mentally):

View 1 RepliesI have a form with 4 comboboxes and a button. The first combobox is enabled, but the rest of the controls are disabled. When the form is opened I fill the first combobox (cbxMethod) with a datatable. When the user selects something in cbxMethod the next combobox (cbxStudy) will be filled and so on. When the last combobox (cbxAnalyte) has a selected value I want to enable the button and give it focus so the user can move forward with the program. I basically want to force the user to move from one combobox to the other, until all are filled.I am currently using the SelectionValueChange event, but this event only fires when the user changes the value with their mouse or hits the Enter key, not when the user hits the Tab key.

Now my problem is when i click the button, it still does nothing and letter 1 remains "." instead of "Q". also how would i end this string of else ifs? as in what if every text box is full then do what?
