Combo Boxes And Arrays - Create For Random Numbers And Place Them Into For Different Text Boxes
Nov 3, 2010
So as the name states; I am a newer coder.
This is the code i have:
Public Sub RandomNumbers()
Dim s(4) As String
Dim RandomNumber As Byte
I don't know if you can tell what I am trying to do here, so I will try to explain. I what to create for random numbers and place them into for different text boxes. I also would like to do this with combo boxes and their selected indexes. So if the combo box has 10 items in it; the new selected index would be the random number generated above.
I'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.

My problem is after I created 5 rows of text boxes, I want to add random numbers to all of the text boxes in one time when I click the button.Here are my coding to create text box dynamically:
Private Sub btnAdd5Row_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAddFiveRow.Click For Me.count = count To 5
I am trying to follow the book 'Sams teach yourself VB 2008'. It was going well until the end of hour 4. For exercise 1 I have created the form with a button and two text boxes, but cannot work out the code I need to move text between the two boxes. The Object Browser does not seem to help - am I reading it wrong?
I used this code to created 2 combo boxes General and Specific...and Only show Specific (Combo when Combo A is chosen.....What i need now is to know how to assign specific values to the items in combo b (Specific).??? If i chose a sode, Fanta, i want the total price to be $10.00 (this price will show up in the finial price box..
I am developing a program that makes it easier for users to log on to a website and search for specific data. I have the first portion finished in which I have a form with the Ax Web Browser control.
The web browser control navigates to a local website and automatically logs in for the end user. This is done by using code which automatically fills in the username and password and then submits the form to logon using something similar to this: WebBrowser1.Document.Forms.Item(, 0).elements("txtUsername").value = "user"
Once logged on - there is a search page which contains a combo box and list box. I am trying to set specific values for the combo box and list boxes.For example - the combo box on the website is titled: cbxDate and contains the following values: Today, Yesterday, This Week, This Month.
A list box titled: lstArea contains the following values: Zone A, Zone B, Zone C, All.I am trying to figure out if there is a way through code to select, in this example, "Yesterday" in the cbxDate and "Zone B" in the lstArea on the webpage.If anyone knows of a solution, please feel free to let me know. Be advised that I am using the Ax Web Browser Control.
I am making a program, where the user enters 6 numbers in 6 different text boxes, and it displays the larger of those 6 numbers. But I also want to make it where if the user enters a string value (like S for instance) in the text boxes, it gives an message and says "please enter the numbers again" and the user gets to enter the 6 numbers again. But when I do try to do that, it gives an error message saying conversion from "w/e the user entered" to Double is not valid. If the user just enters the numbers, it works fine. However, I am trying to make it if the user does enter non numeric value, it gives a message window and the user can reenter the numbers again.
Here is my code Example
CODE:
This is where I am trying to use IsNumeric to show a message if a user does not enter a string so the user can renter the numbers again, but when the user does enter a string value (say in textbox 1) it gives me an error message saying conversion from "S" to 'double' is not valid.
CODE:
Then right here this is where I have my series of ifs statements, this part works fine, it displays the largest numbers of the 6 textboxes every time. Error free.
CODE:
And do this with variable number 2, 3, 4, 5.
I know there are easier ways to do these with arrays and stuff. But I am not there yet. I am still learning about ifs and stuff.
First i am pretty new to coding and everything so yeah...I wish to make a distance and fuel calculator as my project. Included will be multiple combo boxes with different sets of information (The manufacturer of the vehicle, model of vehicle, the vehicles fuel use per 100Km, its transmission type, users choice of where they will depart from and arrive etc.) Is it possible to achieve this without using a lot of combo boxes? I've experimented using if statements for example:
if combobox1.selected item = "Holden" then combobox2.visible = true (it's bad i know)
Then from this they would choose their model type in another combo box and then choose their transmission type etc..I don't want to use this because then it will mean i will have to do it for each and every combo box for each and every different set of data because making one 'visible = true' i will have to make the other 'visible = false' and this will cause problems when i start adding a lot onto it.
I want to pull information from an array and place it into a chart of text boxes on the form. I have used a control array before but this time I want to create a dwo dimension control array. My guessing is not working... The display will be 10 x 10?
i have a combo box that on form load is populated but i need to know when i click an item, i will be able to code how to populate other combo and text boxes with data about the same person.
how to make this save multiple combo/text boxes instead of just one, here is my save code which
Private Sub SaveToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SaveToolStripMenuItem.Click Dim Save As New SaveFileDialog
how to do something similar to what was a control array in VB6 in .NET? I would like to be able to fill the contents of several text boxes using a FOR NEXT loop or something similar..... corresponding the contents of an array with the texts of an equal number of text boxes.
Im trying to make a program that allows the user to view additional information via moving the cursor over the label to view (make visble) additional information, in the form of text boxes and/or picture boxes. How will i go about doing this?
i need to take two integers from two text boxes and put them into two separate integer arrays then add them right to left carrying if over 10. here is what i have so far but just looking for the addition i think i can figure out the rest if i get the addition working...
' Project Name: Big Integer Project ' Project Purpose: User enters two integers up to 30 digits each then performs operation. Option Explicit On
I have a csv file with say 20 lines of 6 numbers. I need to be able to select say line 14 and then load the 6 numbers into a set of 6 text boxes. I can get them into the text boxes once they are loaded into an array, it's getting them into the array I am having difficulty with. I ahve tried numerous scripts form off these forums and the net but can't get one where I can specify which line the information comes from.
I know how to limit a single text box to numbers only but can I use the same sub for all my text boxes or do I have to have a sub for each whith the same code? I think I just need the proper syntax. Below is what I have that works for one on my text boxes:
Private Sub txtPitchRiseTC_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtPitchRiseTC.KeyPress ' allow only numbers and the Backspace key
I need to to able to save multiple text-boxes and a combo-box to a text file. the thing is, when I go to save, I check out the .txt file manually and its saved all in one line, no spaces. when I go to "read" it with the 2nd part (<-----this is a 2 part Challenge) it even reads all from that one line in the text file. What i'm asking is how can I make my text-boxes saved in the text file on different lines. [Code]
I could use some advice/examples to acheive the following:
I have 1 form, 4 text boxes, (textbox1 ,2, 3, 4)
Textbox1 and Text box 3 and single line text boxes.. Textbox2 is multiline.. (a description field which can be as long or short as the user desires..)
Textbox 4 is a large multi-line textbox that will contain the output of Textbox1,2,3.
I need to find out how to output the contents typed into Textbox1,2 and 3 into Textbox4 while maintaining formatting..
For example, contents of Textbox1 should always be the first text displayed in textbox4, immediately under that should be the contents of Textbox2, and under that, Textbox3
I want to ensure that the text is displayed in that order even if the user enters information into Textbox3 first.. and still displayed in the proper order if Textbox2 has 1 line of text or 20 lines of text.
How could I do this? How can I make the text from one box always be inserted before or After text from another specific textbox when its displayed in the destination Textbox.. (think of Textbox4 like a "preview window" of sorts.. which will later be outputted to an actual txt file.
I have designed my form like this it has a combo box and several text boxes. In the form load I want to load the customer IDs of my customer table into my Combo box.Customer IDs data type is varchar and this part is working in my form.The next thing that I want to do is if a user select a single user ID from the combo box I need to display the first name last name and there are several fields of that selected customer id in the text boxes.If anyone can help me in this it'll be a great help.I have designed my data base in sql server 2008 and I'm using visual studio 2008.I added a new sqldata adapter and I created the data set.But I want to know how to pass the selected id of the combo box as the select parameter of sql statement and how to bind data to the text boxes.
I currently have my cute little first program made... I'm just stepping into the water with this programming thing. I made a program where you can select a shape from a drop-down list and then input some values and click a button and get the area of the shape. I have it working so that when a certain shape is chosen, certain fields are disabled, such as when you pick "circle" from the combo box, the "length", "width", and "number of sides" text boxes are disabled but the "radius" text box is enabled, thus allowing you to enter the radius and find the area. I want to make it so that when you first load the program, all of the text boxes for the length, width, number of sides and radius are disabled until you select a shape from the list. Currently I'm using
[Code]...
This works for disabling the correct boxes when something is selected, but I don't know if I'm even on the right path with that first part.
I have an I/O device with 8 channels. I want to create a timer control for each channel with combo boxes for days, hours, minutes and radiobuttons for AM or PM. This is a crude (and not working) example of what I need:[code]
I have a combo box which is linked to a query which is looking up a unique reference number from a table called Tbl_Submitted_Requests.
What I need the form to do is auto populate the other text boxes when the user selects the unique reference from the combo box. How can I get the text boxes to auto populate with the data that is associated with each unique reference?
None of the Microsoft videos I have watched, or the other posts I have seen, have given me the pieces I need to understand this process. This is the one key piece of understanding that I need to finish about 4 different programs I have started in the last 2 years. All of them key on understanding the following processes:
In VB10/win forms project, when I change the forms font size the form and all the controls on the form get larger or smaller, OK great! The problem is the combo boxes then appear with their text highlighted. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong, simple example..
I'm trying to lern VS 2010 from VB 6 and one of the things i'm hawing a problem whid is control array.In vb 6 if you create a text box it's named "Text1" and if you yust copy it and paste it it renames to "Text1(0)" and the new one's name is "Text1(0)" and the code would lock like this
[code]...
then it would print for each loop the random result in one of the text boxes corresponding to i.
So I'm in the final stages of finishing a program I've been working on for nearly a year now, and this is basically my final hurdle. The Save dialogue is working beautifully, with 'flags' in order to switch it over from the regular input into text boxes to the Listbox input protocol.
However, I'm having a *** of a time getting it to take lines from the text file and put them in the proper text box. Here is an example file:
Quote:
SHOWNAME CALLNAME BREED
[Code]....
So with the sample file I provided above, in the textbox named callNameText would appear "SHOWNAME", and so on and so forth. With this build, I get a NullReferenceException on the "Me.Controls(strboxNames(i)).Text() = strAllText(ati)" line.
