View 9 RepliesIn the following code I have an OpenFile() Function which opens a fileDialogBox, I then select my file (which will be a PDF) and return it back. My question is....When I get the filename and path, is there a way to take this path and put it into a textbox or richtextbox as a hyperlink? I want the user to be able to view the file once it has been selected and displayed on the form. But when I tried the following:
Code:
RichTextBox1.InsertLink("linktext", "linkurl.html")
It said the "insertLink" was not a member of richtextbox. But i see examples of it all over the net.
Here is the code I have so far just passing the string to the textbox and richtextbox, I just need it to be passed as a hyperlink to the file location.
Code:
Private Sub btnOpenFile_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAttachDoc.Click
'declare a string to the filename
Dim strFileNameAndPath As String = Open File()
If (strFileNameAndPath = "") Then
MsgBox("You did not select a file!")

I want to replace a regular link with a hyperlink in my RichTextBox, all of the information is given to me via a outside library (LinkEntity). But I don't know how to actually go about replacing the text.
I have this, but it does not work right, sometimes it throws a value cannot be null exception, and sometimes it just replaces the wrong part of the link.

since I now have the records returned as URL format, how can I display those as hyperlinks in my gridview? (this is how the client wants it done, not much I can say to change their mind)
My vb code is:

GridView1.DataSource = pds
GridView1.DataBind()
If I have a large number of classes, each similar to the other in certain aspects (they all share a common base class, but each does things differently), and I need to create Windows forms for each to allow easy changing of their values through a GUI? Create one matching form for each object in VS' forms designer, Or Use code to create the forms dynamically at runtime.
#2 makes the most sense to me, because a lot of these objects will share very common features of the form, notably "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons. But one object might need to draw a textbox on the form while another might need to draw a combobox. Not to mention, if I want to put icons on the "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons, I'd have to do this for each copy of the form in designer, and that sounds like it could get out of hand quickly.But is drawing forms through code sane? VS' forms designer is pretty sophisticated and designed to make life easier. Am I wise to consider ignoring its functionality and diving into the trench warfare of forms design through code? Or are there examples of automating form creation based on an existing object's properties?
Yesterday I was working with a RichTextBox and decided to add some formatting to my logging (I've never formatted text in one before!! O_O) ...not quite what I expected! Now, normally I work with plain unformatted text and I have an imposed limit on the number of characters I allow to be displayed in the GUI log. So I did my usual thing: After the length exceeds my cap I remove all the oldest lines from the log and set the most recent log info as the .Text property of the RTB... FAIL! All formatting was lost and things were ugly looking again. Sigh.

I am trying to bind a RichTextBox to data from an XML file where text within a paragraph may be tagged with formatting tags. As an example the text may look like this:"The size of the area is 5000 m<superscript>2</superscript>".Text may also contain other formatting tags such as <bold> or <italic>:"The quick brown fox <bold>jumps</bold> over the <italic>lazy</italic> dog".
View 5 RepliesI have a My.Settings file that has a folder path that the user will select.I need to export text from a RichTextBox to a file, however, I can't seem to figure out how to use My.Settings as the path where the text file will be created.
Right now, I have:
Me.txtlog.SaveFile("C:UsersmycomputerDesktopNew folderfounditems.txt", RichTextBoxStreamType.PlainText)
which works fine, however, the My.Settings.destfolder is "C:UsersmycomputerDesktop estfolder"
I have tried:
Me.txtlog.SaveFile(My.Settings.DestinationFolder, RichTextBoxStreamType.PlainText)
but it doesn't work - and also I do not know how to name the text file from the above code.
I have a RichTextBox where part of the RichTextBox is Bold and the rest is not. If I do a SelectAll, the SelectionFont member doesn't get set.

I did a conversion of a VB6 project to VB.NET 2005 and some properties of a RichTextBox control weren't upgraded. I was wondering if someone could tell me an alternative or what to do about the following properties of the RichTextBox:
ZOrder - this worked in VB6:
formMain.textStatusWindow.ZOrder(VB6.ZOrderConstants.BringToFront)
SelColor - this worked in VB6 fo example: formMain.textStatusWindow.SelColor = RGB(207, 73, 10)

On a button click i want to first select "vb dotnet forums" and on next click immediately select "are the best" (in a richtextbox control) .
View 6 Repliesi have a simple notepad application where i want a feature of selecting text which is underlined. Usually what happens is when i click a button the app reads a text file and underlines random text in the richtextbox. What i want is on the click of another button to select the text which is underlined. I thought of creating char range, regex all but not getting anywhere. I also dunno how to build a regex.
What i know is since all RTF texts are different we can choose the rtf text instead of simple text to select the underlined text. The rtf of underlined text in my application is this uli0 so manyulnonei where ul and ulnone mark the text as underlined. Now i want to select all such texts which are surrounded by uli0 and ulnonei . I thought of the following method :
1) Create another richtextbox2
2) Paste the text of richtextbox1 as rtf in richtextbox2. I mean show the text in coded rtf (like above) instead of normal rtf.
3) Use simple find to select all the text which is surrounded by ul and ulnone tags
4) process the text.
But this step is very tedious. If anyone could help me in making a simple procedure or build a regex which could process the text surrounded by those tags,
I'm facing the problem of updating a RichTextBox (RTB) from a thread with parameters, I used invoke and methodinvoker:

2 forms, on the first form I have a listbox which recieves it's items from a datagridview, when I click on a button all the items (in the listbox) are converted to a string and add to a richtextbox on the second form.
On the second form I have also a numericupdown, and here is what I run into.
With the numericupdown I want to multiply or remove blocks of strings from the richtextbox.
For example, when clicked on the button (form1) a string is add to the richtextbox, when I click (on form2) on the upbutton of the numericupdown I want to add the same string again below the existing one with 2 blank lines between them (this can be down a lot of times). When I click the downbutton, a string should be removed.
In short term, the amount in the numericupdown should be the amount of string blocks in the richtextbox.
Here is the code I use to copy listbox.items to string and add them to the richtextbox:
Public Sub SGLists()
Dim i As String
For Each i In Me.ListBox1.Items

i'am having trouble in making a spell checker for vb.net richtextbox control.I have made a form with richtextbox control and a panel control. I have put a listbox control in the panel control and filled with certain words. What iam able to do is whenever i select a word and click a button the panel appears just below the word (using get position from char) and display the choice. What iam not able to do is:
1) Select each word one-by-one whenever i click a button say F1 - I know keypress event but how do i select the words through keypress. I know they are separated by spaces but iam not familiar as to how to take advantage of it. The major problem being that there can be 2-3 words together sometimes colored as red. Eg: What i want is when i press F1 first time "this" is selected, next time "is" is selected and next time "nice car color" is selected. The two things are spaces and red color but i don't get anything from it.
2) Display the panel correctly within the main form's border. Right now when i select the last word of the sentence some part of panel disappears as it hides behind the main form. Eg - only 1/4th appears and rest hides. I can't find a way to limit it from moving when it has reached the main form size. I want to constrain it between top-bottom and left-right border of main form.
I just wanna ask, how to format an image or a picture inside an RTB control? Its like the way MSWORD does the formatting, (i.e Center, Behind Text, etc..).
