I have a databound textbox that I would like formatted as a phone number ((###) ###-####), instead of being displayed as 10 numbers.
I'm using this on a databound label, which works fine. The same doesn't work on a textbox, though.
phoneNumber = CDbl(lblPhoneNumber.Text)
lblPhoneNumber.Text = phoneNumber.ToString("(###) ###-####")
Anyone know of something that will work with a textbox?
I have a textbox for a phone number that formats the phone number to look like this:(123) 456-7891
but I want it to change back to just numbers when the user is finished with the data entry:1234567891 Here's my code for formatting the number:

All - I have a form that has two databound textboxes on it. To keep it simple, they are: Quantity & Value For BOTH of these text boxes, the TEXTCHANGED action will multiply the two and present the result in a LABEL. This works 100%.

For BOTH of these text boxes, the TEXTCHANGED action will multiply the two and present the result in a LABEL.This works 100%.NOW - If I choose to add formatting to either of these text boxes, the calculation will not work. As one might guess, QUANTIY is formatted as NUMBERIC with zero decimal places and VALUE is formatted as CURRENCY with 2 decimal places.
View 3 RepliesI have a text box that displays a phone number. The data is coming from a database.Right now it just displays as "xxxxxxxxx". I'd like to display it as "xxx-xxx-xxxx" or even "(xxx) xxx-xxxx"Here's the code that I'm currently using to display the phone number - PhoneTextBox.DataBindings.Add("text", aBindingSource, "Phone")What can I add to this line to get some formatting?
View 2 RepliesI have a window form with a label. On the form I have a dataset, bindingsoure, and tableadaptor (all created by the IDE in response to binding the text property of the label) To fill the datatable, the IDE created this: Me.ClientsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Clients) Works fine. The bound field is a phone number, stored in the db as a 10 digit numeric string I need to format this with the standard ()-, and I have a function that will do just that. How can I apply the formatting so the phone number appears in the label properly?

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to validate the correct format for a phone number in a text box: (000) 000-0000 For a test, i made it so that a messagebox shows up saying "correct" if the format is correct. This test works well WHEN the format is correct. BUT when the format IS NOT correct, I keep getting an error saying that the index was out of the array.

I have a datagridview which is bound to a table in a database. In said table, I have a field called Date and a field called Time, among other various fields. By default, I see that VB.NET attempts to help me by formatting the Date and Time columns for me, however I would like to do it my own way. I checked the columns' DefaultCellStyle fields and found them blank. Apparently, its current behavior is defined elsewhere. How would I go about removing the default formatting that VB.NET put in place to make room for my own?

I want to display a phone number in a text box like this:
"(828) 524-5121".
In VB6, I could do this:
temp= Format("8285244121", "(###) ###-####")
and temp would be "(828) 524-5121".
If do this in VB2008, temp is "(###) ###-####".
I'm looking to create a windows application in vb.net or c#.net that will capture the phone number of incoming calls. This would be a land line. What would the hardware requirements be?
View 3 RepliesI have had a look over some posts in here on a similar theme as to my question but none of them are getting me any further forward. All I am trying to do is make sure that when a phone number is entered in a textbox that it conforms to the following formats:
1) #### ### #### (All numbers)
2) ##### ###### (All numbers)
3) ###### (All numbers)
just as the question says. I get numbers like 2125550938 or 20298277625552. these should change to (212) 555-0938 and (202) 982-7762 x 5552 respectively. this is in vb.net
View 4 RepliesI don't really need all the code, just a method of doing something.I'm trying to do number #42 on page 496 of the VB 2005 book. I'm able to get each number from each button on the phone to display, but I'm not sure how to go about adding the numbers to the number already on the screen. I can get 1 then a 2, then a 3, etc but not 123.
I believe the method is adding to a string, and I know I have to use concatenation or something.. I just need a push in the right direction.
I know this is an easy one but I cant seem to find it with searching..I have a textbox with a phone number as follows: 1234567890 how can I split that phone number and put it into 3 new textboxes like this [code]I have seen it done in vb6 with left,mid, and right but it seems that it doesnt work the same with vb.net

Our company has an old intranet site, that has 1000's of pages, and ive created a loop to look at them all, but i wanted a way to put all the phone numbers it can find, into a text box, i have the code below but cant seem to get it to work.
Sometimes the phone numbers can be 111-222-3333 (111)-222-3333 111 222 3333

I have searched on google and asked friends, but have not figured out a way to add dashes while a user is typing either a phone number or a social security number or something of the like. I am using Visual Studio 2008, VB Windows Form. This is not for homework but I enjoy adding things to certain projects and thought this would be neat to incorporate into one of mine. I am also curious about allowing the user to enter the first three numbers for their area code and then send the focus to the next text box so that the user can type the rest of their number. I was thinking I could do something with the text box text entered event procedure where I would send the focus after three characters entered. Not 100% on the entire idea or if there is an easier way.

View 5 RepliesI have a field defined as string for phone number which in my SQL cast to Integer.
Format the column as follows
DataGridView1.Columns("ContactPhone").DefaultCellStyle.Format = "(###) ###-####"
This works as expected for cells with a phone number but for cells without a phone number I get
{}- Which seems like the proper output for what I specified.
is it possible to format cells with no data (no phone number) to show up empty in their cell?
I need to take a fully formated number:
Ex: (111)-111-1111
And take out all the none integer characters, such as parens, hyphens, and spaces.So far I have:
sNumber = txtNumber.Text
If sNumber.Contains("-") Then
sFixed = Replace(sNumber, "-", "")
lblNumberOut.Text = sFixed
[code]....
sNumber and sFixed are both declared class/global level. The thing is, I've made two separate if's, i've made the second one an elseif, It just only enacts one if statement, such as only taking out the hyphens and not taking out the parens, or vice versa. I'm thinking i need to declare multiple sFixed (sFixed1,2,3, etc) but that seems terribly inefficient.
I am thinking of dialling the number and if it rang then it is existing but I am not sure how to implement such. I am on Vista and it looks like all comm ports are not available or that I don't know how to enable them. Upon googling I have found samples of TAPI but I am unable to make them work, the following code is supposed to call a phone no. but I am getting the exception "Value does not fall within the expected range." on the 2nd line and I am clueless as to how to fix it

In one upgarde of my app, I will connect the PC to one Siemens phone, wich create a COM port.Now, I nedd send one number to the phone, for it makes me the call automatically.
View 1 RepliesNormally I would create a form and handle the binding of controls myself. However, the current table I'm working on has 180 something columns so I decided to use the BindingSource to control the amount of code I have to write. This has all worked well until I try and call the value of one of the textboxes.
So.. I bind my form like so: Me.MyTableAdaptor.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.MyTable)
Whenever I call a textbox e.g.: Dim myVar as String = txtName.Text myVar remains "" or Nothing. I just can't get myVar to equal what is typed into the textbox that is databound.
Is there anything I can do. I know that binding isn't the recommended use, but I really could do without having to write the insert, select, and update commands for 180+ columns.
I know you can get a currency symbol or a data format for a country using System.Globalization. However, is it possible to get the phone number format for a country from it as well. If not is there a way to get this information from the .NET Framework?

View 3 RepliesI am experiencing aproblem in my VB.NET App. The salary form is a databound form in my app to a linq data source. There are several text boxes to enter and calculate different salary fields. e.g. Basic Salary, Budgetary Allowance and Adjusted Basic Salary...
all the above three controls are bound to the datasource. now on the Leave events of the Basic Salary and Budgetary Allowance there is a function to calculate Adjusted basic salary.
The problem is i dont see the calculated amount in the adjusted basic salary but i see only the underlying data in the database instead of the programmatically calculated amount.
