Setting A Textbox To Only Accept Numeric Values?
Dec 9, 2010I am looking into data validation as I need a way of setting a textbox to only accept numeric values. I have had a search for this and it doesn't seem as straight forward as I had hoped.
I have found a couple of possible methods, although the sites which I found them where very unclear on how they actually work. I feel strongly that I should know how all of my own programs work >_>
I have no actually got this to work with my program yet. Are there better methods than this?
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
Dim allowedChars As String = "0123456789$,"

Setting Parameter Values To Equal DataColumn Values?
Apr 23, 2011I'm trying to assign some parameters for a stored procedure with some values that are stored in a data table. in the code, I can set the parameter values to the data table, and give a column header or index without issue, but when it tries to execute at runtime it bombs out.the error I get is a variation on "Failed to Convert Parameter Value from a DataColumn to a String" depending on exactly how I try to assign the value.the data types are all correct elsewhere in the code.
my code for this bit is
Try
ConnectionAttempt.Open()
Try
With NewYearCommand_Dates
[code]....
other things I've tried to get this to work are all variations on the .Value=dates bit, such as
.Value=dates(0) (so using column index)
.Value=dates.columns(0) (again using column index)
I've also tried declaring variables, and setting their values to the values in the columns, but the code returns an error saying that "Value of type 'System.Data.DataColumn' cannot be converted to string".I should point out that i'm doing this for 3 tables at once in this sub, 2 of them will only have a single row of data, but the third has an indeterminate number of rows.I'm afraid I don't know what else to do. I'm lead to believe by my mate and my lecturer that this should work, and of course it will work, but the evidence says otherwise.
Resetting The Values In Setting?
Mar 10, 2011I'm storing data using my.settings (e.g., to use as a incremental counter). When I run my application it increments the value but, I do not know where to reset this value despite looking at all of the project files for them.
Is there a file that contains this data?
Note: at times during testing I don't want to reset the value(s) back to zero.
Setting Values To Options In ComboBoxes
May 27, 2010I'm using VB 2010 and I'm trying to use combo boxes on a current project but I'm not familiar with the code. I would like to set values to certain options in the combo box.
For example, if inside the combo box I listed the options:
Dog
Cat
Bird
I want dog to be set to = 1
cat = 5
bird = 12
To go further into depth, the code probably looks something like:
If cat.selected then
pet = 1

XML Deserialization Not Setting Class Values
Nov 25, 2009I am not seeing what I am doing wrong. To see what was being done, I changed the constructor values to "TEST", after the XML gets read in (I verified what the XML is), the class values are still stuck to "TEST". Any more Ideas? I am doing this process already in another class that works fine, neither me nor some co-workers could find the difference.[code]...

View 4 RepliesSetting Registry Values With Binary Value Kind?
Sep 14, 2010I am a newbie so please forgive me if my terminology is incorrect.I am trying to Update a Registry sub key value. I have done this a few times before with success. But this time is kinda different. I noticed a few things,like the sub key value is in HEX when I export the key (The value that I want to input is from a sub key that I exported) I can only get the registry to accept the command if I do not specify the registry value kind, but that doesn't do me any good if its not the correct value kind.

Setting Values On DataGridView From Context Menu
Jun 5, 2010I'm have an app that currently allows a user to select a color (from a Color Dialog) which updates an unbound Datagridview with the name of the selected color & also changes the background of the selected row to that color.
I need to do one of 2 things:
Either change the Color Dialog so that I can set the colors available
Or Allow the user to select colors from a context menu and have that update the Datagridview.
Setting Values For Invisible Fields/Properties In DetailsView?
Mar 16, 2011I have a DetailsView which has two fields - one that is visible, one that is not. The first the user fills out, the second I want to auto-populate. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a way to set the value in this second invisible field. I've tried adding code like this to the Page_Load:
If Not IsPostBack Then
DetailsView1.DefaultMode = DetailsViewMode.Insert
Dim txt1 As TextBox = DirectCast(DetailsView1.FindControl("Type"), TextBox)
txt1.Text = "administrator"
End If
But this returns an error of "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." Any ideas on how to accomplish this - either using the method above or another method?The hoped for end result is that when a new record is inserted via the DetailsView that this record will include the username (entered by the user) as well as the "type" of "administrator"

View 1 RepliesRandom Exception Thrown When Setting Valid Month Values?
May 30, 2011The exception message I am receiving is this... "Year, Month, and Day parameters describe an un-representable DateTime."
Now I've traced my values being passed and everything is correct. Values loops through 1 to 12 but still I continue to receive an exception. Only way I can avoid this is by throwing a Try, Catch statement around where I'm passing over the value.
Here's my code..
001 Dim Calendar(11) As AppointmentBookControl.AppointmentBookControlMonthlyOverviewCalendarControl

Line '011 .Month = i+1' is where the problem is located. The values for (i+1) maintain within the bounds of 1 through 12..
Setting/Reading Specific Values Of A Richtextbox Line To An Array
Dec 7, 2009I have a button which reads a comma separated value file and loads it into a richtextbox. Each line contains comma separated chars.
Once the file is loaded in the richtextbox, i want to be able to select specific values from each line and store them into an array.
For example:
Line1: a,b,c,d,e
I want to be able to place only the values "b" and "c" into an array.
I was thinking something like creating a menu for the richtextbox which will be triggered on right click, then highlight the values I want, press right click and select 'place these values in an array'.
it doesn't have to be the way i proposed it, but it definitely must use a richtextbox.
Link Textbox Values To Resource Values?
May 25, 2009I'm using a pattern of buttons verticle, & horizonal, to produce a 2 dimensional matrix (6 deep, 25 wide .) The sequence is repeating, but offset from horizonal line to line. the values are 1 thru 12. there are corresponding files in the "My.resources." file carrying names related to the buttons. If the "my. Resources" filename is say.., "1,3,4,6,8,9,11,12 " & the buttons pushed have produduced the string "1","4","6" then the prestated file carries all these values, and therefore should be selected. All integers of the textbox list must be present in a "my.resources" file to show the file. There will be multiple files in the resource file that will fit. (My ultimate intention is to show all files that fit, somehow. I'll have to, eventually. I'm still writing this, and changing it constantly. )the question is, "How do I get the computer to link the textbox integers to the resources files? Textbox = "1", "4", "6" to My.Resources.1,3,4,6,8,9,11,12
View 1 RepliesSetting Input Box Values After Invoking Click Event On Webpage Buttons

I have tried all the blog posts using isbusy, timer etc but it does not seem to work. The code breaks and the error prompt says that id_pickupdate does not exist.

Could you look at the application and tell me what we are missing to get the textbox data in the 2nd form to show up?
