The code does exactly what I want it to do. However, when the user presses enter Excel makes a warning noise (berrt!) as if they have done something wrong.

View 5 RepliesI have a richtextbox which has CSV values in each line. Whenever a line is inserted, after pressing a command button the program lets the user know how many categories each line has.
Example:
Line1: a,b,c,d,e
Line2: x,y,z
Pressing the command button would say: Line1: 6 categories, Line2: 3 categories. This works fine, except from when I want a line to NOT contain any categories.
[Code]...
I understand that VB recognizes the vbCrlf on Line2 as a char, hence a 'category', hence the line is not empty. But what happens when I want to consider a line as empty (ie Line2:0 categories)? Should I go with something like if txt.line(i).text = vbcrlf then...? This solution seems kind of like bypassing the problem instead of actually solving it.. Or maybe it's just me?

View 4 RepliesI have a form that you can type in a four digit code and press enter and will will run some code on a database. The problem occurs when a user click their 4 digit ID number and then click enter, the next user then comes up, types their 4 digit ID on the number pad and when they press enter it runs the code twice (this is due to the fact that the enter button has focus, meaning i intercept the enter, run my code, then the button runs that same code)
View 4 RepliesI have a method in place to capture the "Enter" button when pressed and then move to the next control in the tab order. I do this to mimic Access (my users are spoiled).The problem arises when the current control is TextBox. I changed all my TextBoxes to multi-line and it got rid of the beep. However, it also added a "carriage return" and entered it as such in the DataBase.

I've previously posted with regards to searching for a string within Excel, although the replies were enough to get my application 'working' the solution was riddled with over-complicated methods.Therefore I bought some books and figured it out for myself and came up with the below (which works like a charm may I add).

View 1 RepliesI find myself frequently turning off Intellisense because it adds wrong choices to my code. For example if I try to type "i " (without the quotes) it causes "int " to be put into my code. If I type "for " it may put "form " into my text.
Reaching for the ESC key constantly slows down my typing. (It's such a long way to reach for small hands). Is there an alternative way to exit out of intellisense without the highlighted choice being placed into my code, or is a way I can define a different key for this purpose?
