Converting Keychar To String?
Apr 5, 2009
I've got a richtextbox but want to check the keypresses before they come in the textbox. So I thought of using the KeyPress event from the form, checking that key and than writing it to the richtextbox with the Text property.But the KeyChar is a char while the Text property expects a string, and when I convert the KeyChar to a string(ToString) it gives a error.Does anyone know how to fix this or has anyone another idea for checking the presses before writing them?

I searched a few threads for TextBox number solution and found that most were using e.Handled and e.KeyChar in TextChanged. But I couldn't find them in VB 2008. What can I find in Vb 2008 for the same meaning?

Error1'KeyChar' is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs'.
Private Sub gradeTextBox_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles gradeTextBox.KeyDown
Select Case e.KeyChar
Case "0" To "9", vbBack, vbCr 'only allows 0-9 in the textbox
e.Handled = False
Case "." 'also allows a decimal point

I have various input textboxes on my form. And based on entries made in each of the input textboxes, I update the display textbox. However, using AppendText message of textbox. I have my input textboxes set to accept only numeric values. So for each character inputted correctly, I update the display Textbox. Problem I have is when user selects Key.Back or Key.Delete, what I would like to do is do a Delete of last character in the display textbox, but I am yet to get this right. How do I delete the last character in the string that is contained in a TextBox using AppendText()

I am using the .NET Framework 2.0, and I am trying to code a client bot for a game called Minecraft, Originally written in Java, there have been quite a few people who have made custom multi-player servers for this game, Primarily in C#, or in a language that i've never heard of, such as Pascal.I'm looking right now at sending this:
Packet ID: 0x00 (0) As Byte
Protocol Version: 0x07(7) As byte
Username: "umby25" As String
[code].....
"Byte cannot be converted to 1-Dimensional array of byte"
I don't understand why this whole thing would work in all of the other programming languages, but not Visual basic.I have tried converting the string using the same method that one of the open source C# servers used, and it failed, telling me that the dictionary does not contain that or something.

I was trying to figure out how to convert a string (that the user would input to the program via a textbox) into actual code for the program to compile. For example, if the user was to enter: (5*100)+(20-3). How could you take that inputted string, and have the program solve it and return the value?

I have a combobox that pulls a list of values from a database. When a new entry is entered I want an entry in the combobox to read "New record". However, from what I have seen I can only insert and object, such as a DataRow, into the combobox. Is there anyway I can convert a string to to a DataRow, or some other object and insert it in to the combobox? I know there is I am just rusty on my vb.

I'm trying to convert a chosen color into hex base 6 to save to a config file for later use, and that part works, but when converting back to integer to use for a color, it gives me an error about incorrect base.
Dim hex_color = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(ColorDialog1.Color).ToString("X6")
Dim color_int As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(hex_color, 6)
Panel1.BackColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromOle(color_int)

I was trying to convert from Double to String and everything working fine. But when I tried some bigger number with fractions in it. I got the number but rounded. I tried something like that:
Dim dd As Double = 1235212435.3453636
Dim str As String = dd
MsgBox(str)
But what I got is 1235212435.34536 instead of 1235212435.3453636

First: Ok so I'm trying to do a project in my beginning VB .Net class. We are supposed to be taking information from 5 different sections of a form and store them into an array and then call upon them later. We have Name, Address, City,State, and Zip. How would I go about saving the information into an array and then calling upon it later through File IO?
Second: I'm having a problem converting my string into a decimal. Whenever I calculate the price of the order I get 3-4 decimal places. Here is a little snippet of my code for the this:

I've been up for nearly 24 hours now. Trying to program an application for a game I have been playing.I've run in to a problem, I'm not sure how to solve.I have basic knowledge when it comes to VB (college class) so bare with me.[code]My only Idea would be loops to figure out where each of the edited numbers are in the array, But I was looking for something simple.Also, would it be easier to work with the bytes rather than edit them in string form?
