View 2 RepliesI have a problem in the validation of NumericUpDown control in VB.net. I want it to accept only the numbers, but it is accepting punctuations like '.' and apostrophe also, here my code what I did below, but still the problem persists, I used keypress:
View 4 RepliesThe form has 2 ComboBox and 1 NumericUpDown controls. I would like to change value of NumericUpDown based on selection in ComboBox. For example:
ComboBox1 has three value. for instance, AAA, BBB, CCC
ComboBox2 has three value. for instance, DDD, EEE, FFF
The NumericUpDown should has range 0-6 sum of both ComboBox. For instance, if user select from ComboBox1 AAA and from ComboBox2 EEE the NumericUpDown should display value 5.
I have decided to add some validation to my combobox, what I'm trying to achieve is to make sure that the user can ONLY enter fields that are in the combobox but the problem I have now is that if the user clicks on the combobox and doesnt enter anything and tries to leave the combobox the message box appears.
Private Sub Combobox1_Validating(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles Combobox1.Validating
If Combobox1.Items.Contains(Combobox1.Text) = False Then
e.Cancel = True
[Code] .....
As stated before the coding does work, but I was trying to make sure the message box does not appear if the user doesnt enter anything in the combobox.
I am trying to mkae sure that there has been 16 numeric digits entered into the masked textbox. If not show errror message and if so to call the fucnction ValidateLuhn. When calling Validate Luhn i want the program to tell me if the number entered is valid or invalid using the code in the function:
Private Function ValidateLuhn(ByVal value As String) As Boolean
Dim CheckSum As Integer = 0
Dim DoubleFlag As Boolean = (value.Length Mod 2 = 0)

Is it possible to force a combobox to run it's validation event without moving the focus out of the ComboBox?
I need the event (or an event) to trigger when an item is selected with the mouse or an entry is typed into the combo box. I tried using SelectedValueChanged and SelectedIndexChanged however, these events do not fire if the user types a value that does not exist in the list source. I know I can change the DropDownStyle to DropDownList however, I still want the users to be able to type entries in the combobox (with auto complete).
If there was any easy were to make sure that an entry havent been used twice in a selection of ComboBoxes. Heres the start for what id have to do if there isnt.
Private Sub ComboBox9_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox9.SelectedIndexChanged
If ComboBox9.Text = ComboBox1.Text Or ComboBox2.Text Or ComboBox3.Text Or ComboBox4.Text Or

I've found some unexpected behaviour in my ComboBox, which I'm hoping someone can help me with. If focus is lost by pressing the Return key on a form which has AcceptButton set, then after handling the Validating event and cancelling the validation,the ComboBox will not drop down any more. When you click on the drop-down arrow, the list drops down momentarilly then goes away again To reproduce this, create a new VB.NET Windows Forms application. Drop a Combo Box and a Button onto the default form, then add the following code:[code]....
Run this application, click on the Combo Box, enter some random text (e.g. "asdf"), then press Return. After this, click on the drop-down arrow on the Combo Box.I'm using Visual Basic 2010 Express on Windows 7 Home Premium.
I had used this code to validate email id in textbox,but it is not working properly?
Dim Expression As New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex("^[a-zA-Z][w.-]*[a-zA-Z0-9]@[a-zA-Z0-9][w.-]*[a-zA-Z0-9].[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z.]*[a-zA-Z]$")
If Expression.IsMatch(Textbox1.Text) Then
MsgBox("The email address is valid.")
Else

I have a textbox which has some text on it and when the user will click on it,The problem is, as there is already a text on the textbox when the user will click will diappear to type his respective text, the program is saving the text written also. How to prevent that? All I want is to prevent the program saving a blank textbox and the text written on it?
View 4 RepliesTheres is possible to put Letter in Masktextbox?.except the Special Characters
View 4 RepliesMy question is the last code tag section above where the parameters are set for the input.If on the form there is a textbox that is required (on the db side to not allow nulls) how would you perform the validation before you tried to execute the update sql?Ex: say 'SerialNumberTextbox.Text' was empty or if you needed to have character constraints on what was typed like varchar(15) and they have 16 or more characters
View 7 RepliesThe problem i am having is after checking if the field is blank i want program to stop at that, right now it is going ahead and checking the username password also even though the field is blank and printing wrong username password. i am really new at this so please excuse the lack of knowledge

I'm trying to add Validation to a Silverlight 3.0 TextBox but cannot seem to find and example which is complete, and not missing functionality that makes it work, I have this property[code]...
View 2 RepliesI have a problem where I have maskedtextbox's for Time only that do not show correctly in the datarepeater. Outside the repeater they are fine. In the datarepeater it shows the date instead of the time but in the masked format.
For Example:
11/23/2010 07:00:00AM Shows as 11:23 instead of 07:00
I have to use basic methods to validate the data that's entered is acceptable. The chapter we are on only gets into checking if a value is =, >, < etc etc, but I want to check if a letter was entered where a number was expected, so I ended up
with this:
'Store user values
If Not IsNumeric(inputLoanAmount.Text) OrElse CDbl(inputLoanAmount.Text) < 0 _
OrElse Not Integer.TryParse(inputLoanTerm.Text, loanTerm) _[code]....
I want to validate email in text box through key press event.my code is as follows
[Code]....
it is not working, provide solutions....
on my form i have 2 text boxes. One email the other password. Her eis my code
Private Sub btnLog_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLog.Click
If String.IsNullOrEmpty(txtMail.Text) Then
'txtMail is empty
MessageBox.Show("Email is empty", "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, _
MessageBoxIcon.Error, MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1)
[Code]...
How can i make this more efficient. So that txtMail checks for text first then @ then more text then .com or something? i,m sure you know what i mean.and textpassword is more then 2 or three chars?
How to enter the date in the masked text box and how to validate it
View 2 RepliesOK, so i was going to verify a MaskedTextBox on whether the number input was or was not 10 digits in length. If not 10 digits, obviously they didn't put in a full phone number.
The problem is, even though you have no digits the length is still 10 so you can't check if the user put in 10 digits or not and return an error? Anyone got any ideas on testing for a phone number?I've seen tons of examples on date verification, but none on phone number verification.
Is there any possibility that I can put this large chunk of code to a function so that I can call and verify the input without having to repeat the code for every textbox.keyPress event.
Here it is:
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
With e
If IsNumeric(.KeyChar) Or .KeyChar = "[" Or .KeyChar = "]" Or .KeyChar = ";" Or .KeyChar = ":" _

I have one textbox basically the user is going to enter in a 9 digit number or letters. From there I want to have a buttonclick event that validates this against 2 columns in a MSSQL Database. First to check if the number exists, next to check if it is active or inactive.
There are about 27000 rows of numbers so my main question is what is the best approach to handling something like this.
Should I create a view and validate in the click event. Should I create a stored procedure in sql that takes an input parameter and call it in the click event.
I was also reading about storing the information in a dataset however with that many records i am assuming that is going to be a slow process.
I need to amend the code below to cater for only two Decimal places. Anyone know how i can do this?

First off, let me apologize for my wording. I'm a student programmer and code primarily in JAVA so my my lingo may be a little skewed.I have created a method to create text boxes in my program that all have the same properties (ie certain text, size, font, fore color, backcolor,etc.) that looks like this:
[Code]...
I have a number of textboxes on a form, and I want them all to accept the ENTER key. When the ENTER key is pressed, I want it to trigger the validating event. I know it will look something like this:
Private Sub Textbox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Textbox1.KeyPress, Textbox2.Keypress
[Code].....
What code can I use to cause the validating event to fire? I'd prefer the focus to stay in the textbox.
Can I validate a texbox to have only True or false? You should enter True or false in the textbox.
View 3 Repliesis there any way of making a textbox only accept intergers and treat them as such when doing calculations.
View 5 RepliesI have a maskedtextbox as I want to force the user to enter only a IP address. My mask is: ### . ### . ### . ###
I have entered spaces between to dots and at both ends. This is what the user wants. I guess makes it easier to read.
However, I need to remove the spaces and have written the code below. However, I think I have done this in an over complex way. By using a char array.
And when I try to print the end result in a message box I get this 'System.char[]'
' Save all the configuration settings
Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
