ErrorProvider Not Allowing Blank Date TextBox Field
Dec 31, 2009
I'm using the ErrorProvider in VB.Net (2005) which is associated with a BindingSource that is bound to a custom object that I have created. This custom object contains a date field that has a "Date" data type that. I am using a "TextBox" to bind the date field in my form. My issue is, whenever the TextBox loses focus and is blank, "String not recognized as a valid DateTime" is displayed by the ErrorProvider and the focus can't be changed to any other control on the Form. It's good that the ErrorProvider validates entries on Date fields by default (I didn't set up my custom object to display this particular error for the date), but it should allow blank values. I want the user to be able to have a blank date with no error message displayed. How can this be done using a Date field bound to a TextBox?

I have a date field bound to a textbox. If I make any changes to the textbox, I get "stuck" in the field unless I put a valid date value. All I want to do is set the date textbox to blank and move on to the next field, but I can't. I am eternally "stuck" in the field unless I put a valid date value.

I did several hours of research, but looks like there is really no solution to this problem... Is this true?

I have a field called PODate & TextBox txtPODate.text. It saves/updates fine when the txtPODate is filled. But when the txtPODate is blank, it throws an error. The problem is that I can't enter date for each record unless I got Purchase requisition converted into Purchase Order. Once it is converted to PO, I need to enter the date to update that filed. So, how can I make my program to accept blank date field.

Using VB2008, Access
I have 2 fields defined as date/time (short date).
I need to store dates fields which may at times be blank (null), how do I go about that?
I tried using:date.minvalue and that stores the value of 12/30/1899. I would like the field to be blank until the user enters a valid date.

How can I get this to happen? I googled around and it seems setting the CUSTOM FORMAT to " " when the field is null will work but not for a BOUND datetimepicker.

I'm fairly new to ASP.NET & VB.I've been asked to take an existing textbox that is automatically filled with the current date and allow the user to either add a "+" or "-" and a number or a spcific number and convert that into a date.I underdstand the basic concept on how to do this, but I'm running into some problems using the proper commands in order for this to work.The Textbox is called txtDate.What I've tried to do is this:
If txtDate = '+' Or '-' Then
DateAdd("d", txtDate, today)
End If
Here is what the whole thing looks like:

Sub
DateEnter_Click(ByVal

I have a combo box defined as a drop down list for a numeric field and have possible values under items. One of the values I have is a blank value (at the top of the items list) in case the user needs to leave the value as null. However, when I choose the 'blank' value, it will not let me past that field. I tried changing the 'data source update mode' to 'Never' and it let me past the field but then of course it won't save ANY of the values I choose.Is there any easy way around this without having to change the field to a string? I have several like this.

I'm doing a simple calculator program calculating Pennies, Nickels, Dimes and Quarters. I made a Try-Catch statement so that if the user enters letters into the text boxes, they get an error message. However, if the user leaves one field blank, the error message still pops up. What's the code so that I can get Visual Basic to recognize that an empty field is the same as 0 so that that message doesn't pop up? [Code]. What do I need to add to it to get that Error Message to stop showing when the user doesn't enter a value into one of the text boxes?

I am creating a converter program (lengths, weights and such), basically just for the learning process because I still find myself very new to this.Well it's like this, I have a textbox where the user is supposed to write the value of the unit he/she wants to convert. As we all know there is a possibility to write in many weird strings which the program later on result in a big error. I recently managed to get rid of dots, because the program couldn't convert if there were a dot among the numbers "." (commas "," works great!). And now there are other types of errors I need to get fixed. I will make a short numeric list.
1. I wonder if it's possible to make dots "." to mean the same thing as a comma ",".
2. I also wonder if i could disable letters a-z or like -#@%&]?! and so on, i just want the basic 0-9 with a coma or dot.
3. I tried to make a Msgbox that tells the user when he/she has done an overflow, a number to big for the program to handle, for example [Observe the code is also trying to prevent the user from writing a minus "-":
(textbox1_textchanged)
If TextBox1.Text.Contains("-") Then
TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text.Replace("-", "")
[code]....
The minus thingy works great, but the 9999999... code, it always creates problems so I have commented it out for now until I know how to handle it.
4. Even though I got rid of the dot "." problem, the user is still able to write more then one comma, and I also want to get rid of that. The code I use right now for the "disable dot problem" is:
(textbox1_keypress)
If e.KeyChar = "," Then
If TextBox1.Text.IndexOf(",") > -1 Then
[code]....

I have a textbox and I need to restrict entry to only the letters A-Z , a-z and the space key. I know I need to use something like

I have an ASP.Net 2.0 textbox which I need to be validated as having some content, but where whitespace alone is valid input. A required field validator seems to reject a pure whitespace input as invalid. A regular expression validator won't fire at all on empty content. Is there a simpler way round this than using a custom validator control?

why is this displayed as the previous day? Is there a name for the format above?

I have a modal popup that allows an admin to choose from a variety of checkboxes to add features to a specific product. If there is a checkbox that an admin believes should be available but isn't because that feature is not in the database, I have added a textbox so that user can add a new feature to the product.
Once I added the textbox, it stopped allowing inserts. At first it was in the same If Else as the checkbox for each loop, but I have recently changed it so the textbox is in it's own for each loop. I have an underline under the words txtFeature.Text that says Value of type 'Char' cannot be converted to 'System.Web.UI.WebControl.Textbox.'
vb code:
For Each feature As ListItem In cbxAddFeature.Items
If feature.Selected Then
Dim strSQL As String = "INSERT INTO Marketing

SQL Table Column Data Type is Date; NULLS allowed,Input to MaskedTextBox set up as: ##->&<&<&-## so typical input is 01-Jan-10, etc. When the MaskedTextBox is filled and column populated, the data in the SQL table uses the format 2010-01-01
The form does not like a blank MaskedTextBox; therefore, when filled - no problem. When left empty, it has a problem. So I wrote this code to populate the column regardless, and will filter out the 2001-01-01 entries in associated reports using Report Viewer. This is less than ideal, so I would like to know if there is a way to make the column as NULL instead of "dummy date" of 2001-01-01?
