How can I Count the Characters in a DataTabel Field before that Field is DataBound to any TextBox. I thought of using a Variabel, something like this:
Dim Var As String = DataBindings.Add("text", HoofGeregteBindingSource, "Ing1")
If Var.Text.Length > 36 Then
. . . . . . . .
End If
I'am Sure I don't have to tell you guys, it does not work.
I need a simple method of counting all characters in a text box and when a button is clicked a message must display if the amount of characters has exceeded 25.
View 4 RepliesOk, so I have a string called item. It's value is "Coffe`". When I try to get the number of caractors by using:
textcount = item.length
However it returns with the value "5". even though there is 6 caracters.
I would like to know how to count specific characters for a proper split value so I can seperate the name of the file from the rest of this address:
C:\Program Files\Folder\Folder\File.file
The reason is so I can combine it with other addresses taken in my code to cuase a proper copy command using the File.Copy with import IO The character I am trying to count is: \ This is so when I command the split, I can choose the split number (starts at 0) so if there are 4 of the "\" characters, then I would subtract one from this number, and use it as the Split index so I can capture the split data at: File.file
I have a little problem with my code.I want to browse a file,display the file,then i want to counting the letters from it.The counting letters i want to display in a textbox(in my code b1),but i don't know how.

Possibly a simple question, but I want to be able to "do nothing" if a value in a text box is less then 3 characters[code]...

View 5 RepliesHow do i validate a field which contain both characters and numbers? For example, I have a field call Item ID and it must be in the form of ABC123 where ABC is the fix characters that will appear in all the Item ID and 123 is the one that will change accordingly.
View 2 RepliesI have a database that I would like to filter characters from anywhere in the field. Example the letter A is typed into textbox1 and in the grid every field that contains an A is show. Like dash, lap, trap, apple. Currently with the query I'm using it will just go from the beginning of the field. I get "Index was outside the bounds of the array". The code is as followed:
Dim filter1() As String
filter1 = TextBox2.Text.Split(" ")
Sheet1BindingSource.Filter = "Stationary_location like '" & filter1(0) & "' Stationary_location like '" & filter1(1) & "'"
VB 2008 using access database.
I am investigating an issue with regards to a textbox rejecting user input. In this case the error message is: 'The note was found to contain a possible credit card PAN.'Now obviously this is a custom validator but I am enable to find where it tells me what characters ARE allowed? In debug I entered a note containing no numbers and when the validators are initialized, these variables have the value below:
valNoteContainsPAN.Expression = Me.PANRegEx value = (d*)45367{13,15}(?!d)
I'm assuming this is blocking numbers of certain lengths? How can I find out how to actually read and understand the above? Google is proving fruitless
I have a multiline textbox from which I create a single string[code]...
What I'd like to do is write this to a DB as-is by adding wholeThing as a parameter using to SqlCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue, but all of my painstakingly-inserted newlines go away (or appear to).

I'm using the following to populate a listbox from a sql server:[code]Is Available returns true (It's a bit in sql) or false - Is it possible to replace this with something shorter, say a checkbox or tick image?Also, is it possible to only display actual data rather than the whole field including empty characters? I have a few nchar(30) fields, the above seems to include all 30 character spaces.
View 4 RepliesEssentially I am trying to replicate the Windows 7 (In-Windows) activation key TextBox form. The Form where it will auto capitalize letters, remove or deny all non alphanumeric characters except dashes every 5 characters that will be auto-input.I assume this can be done with a fairly complicated replacement Regular Expression but I cannot seem to create one to fit the needs.
This is an Example of what I have right now, but it creates an infinite loop as it removes all characters including dashes, than adds a dash, which changes the text and removes the dash again.

i have been trying to remove special characters. i am not able to remove many crlf in middile of the string.
View 3 RepliesI need to create a console program that allows you to enter a string, of which is then outputted in reverse.
Sample:
Input: Diewas
Output: saweiD
Apparently I need to find out about strings and will also need to use a loop.
Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:
GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"
....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then
If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then
Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:
If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!

I have two textboxes. I type in one of them and the text gets copied in real time into another textbox. There is one catch. I need to replace specific character with something else.
If I enter a quote " in textbox1, it has to be replaced with " in textbox2.
I started with something like the below code, but obviously this does not work (tried different stuff - this is for demonstration only). In the example below 'a' represents " , and 'b' represents "
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
TextBox2.Text = TextBox1.Text

With the shape of really large characters such as numbers and alphabetic characters + others, is there a way to get that shape as a REGION please?Imagine a really fat snake forming the letter S or two rectangles placed together to form a large letter L or a T like the shapes in TETRIS.
1) Does anyone know of anything in VB.Net that can translate such shapes into a System. Drawing.Region or know of a project elsewhere that achieves this please?
2) While I'm on the subject, how would you SCALE UP / DOWN a System.Drawing.Region please? How would you work out the Transform Matrix required please?

Program works good, it is mixing characters good, but it doesn't write text to the file. It will write text in console, but not in file. Note: Program is working only with words that are divisible by 2, but it's not a problem. Also, it does not return any error message.
I'm making a custom control suited for handling passwords. I have created a control that inherits from a text box and I have implemented a lot of things so far. But what i want to do now is create a system so that when a user types It will display his last character typed for a X amount of time. Is there a way to turn only selected characters into password characters and still be able to get the password text from the Text property ?

is it possible to do a two way sync on the entire gridview when the user hits a button so you don't have to do an update every time a row is changed? because the user might check the box and then check another box then uncheck a box and it would be a lot of updates...

So I have an ASP.Net (vb.net) application. It has a textbox and the user is pasting text from Microsoft Word into it. So things like the long dash (charcode 150) are coming through as input. Other examples would be the smart quotes or accented characters. In my app I'm encoding them in xml and passing that to the database as an xml parameter to a sql stored procedure. It gets inserted in the database just as the user entered it.
The problem is the app that reads this data doesn't like these characters. So I need to translate them into the lower ascii (7bit I think) character set. How do I do that? How do I determine what encoding they are in so I can do something like the following. And would just requesting the ASCII equivalent translate them intelligently or do I have to write some code for that?
Also maybe it might be easier to solve this problem in the web page to begin with. When you copy the selection of characters from Word it puts several formats in the clipboard. The straight text one is the one I want. Is there a way to have the html textbox get that text when the user pastes into it? Do I have to set the encoding of the web page somehow?

Is bindingsource.count only used to give the total items in a list? I'm trying to prepare data for a pie chart, and need to count the instances of different items in a column (If there's a way that the Chart will do this itself, I've not been able to find it, it seems to need linked items and values). The bindingsource is already filtered and would prefer not to combine filters.Would it be best to loop through the rows of the column and count them 'manually' or is there a quicker way of doing this?Put it in a datagridview? Is it possible to use Aggregate Count on a bindingsource?
