I have this function which evaluates the contents of a textbox (or combobox or maskedtextbox) control and, in conjunction with a KeyPress event, will either allow or disallow the input. It is quite useful for dates or textboxes for which only numeric input is valid. It allows a set number of digits after a single decimal point, if specified in the function call. It also allows the backspace character if the textbox is full.
I would like it to allow me to input what would otherwise be valid text when the textbox is full but one or more characters are highlighted (and would therefore be replaced by the keypress character.

View 1 RepliesAm trying to get the selected text of any opened windows application or IE or ms office applications,i was able to get the text with windows application adn ms office application using wm_Copy api function,but the problem was with internet explorer.I am 100% sure that this is doable well when you select any text on your screen and press ctrl+c you will be able to copy that text,so am sure there is some kind of apis that can get any selected text on the screen other than wm_gettext and wm_gettextlengh,so how windows is able to grab all the selected text on the screen is there anyway to capture any selected text on the screen and especially in internet explorer,is there anyway to get the ctrl+c functionality or how this function. So all i want is to get any text selected on the screen and put it in a textbox.(but not the wm_gettext because that doesn't work with ie).

View 6 RepliesI have a CheckedListView (suggested in a post I read, and it seems to fit my needs) which I populate with the filtered names of the files from within a selected folder. Then the user selects the ones to process, by using the checkboxes. So basically it is a single column text box with checkboxes down the left hand side.
What I've been trying to do is get the selected text (i.e. the name of the file) and put it in a string array for later use.
I've used various forms of: For each item as .....ListViewItem......Next and also various forms of for x = 1 to Listitem.count......Next
e.g.
CODE:
Ensuring that the filename text goes into the str array.
I have this code but it deletes all of the instances of the text, so what would I use to simply delete the selected text after it's been copied and only that text? I've tried using the replace and remove but my methods with those arn't working.[code]...

Ok so I have a combo box that lists a set of names. What I want to do is match a selected name to a text file and read from it. The text file contains the same name and has grades listed below:
ex.

I have a query table like below
[code]...
I have a "bank ref id" text box and value is " yy/98"One the basis of selected row, bank ref should update on second table.
I have a combobox with whose contents get populated via code. Works ok. But When I select something in the list and hit 'OK' it always returns as: nothing, "", or -1 (tried with .selectedValue, .SelectedText, and .SelectedIndex respectively)
Question is, How do you access the text in a ComboBox's selected Value??
I have two forms ( form1, form2) with a textbox on form1 and a combobox on form2. The combobox is databinded. What I have been trying to do with no success is to alter the combobox during runtime from form1. In the textbox the text displayed always corresponds to the values binded with the combobox. I want to set the selected/displayed value of the combobox to be the text that is on the textbox. This to be done on a button click from form1. I have tried the findstring and findstringexact to locate the index of the corresponding text and alter but nothing. After so many testing I soon realised that if the combobox is at form1 together with the textbox I can do whatever I want with it. But when is on form2 I cannot do anything. When I mean anything I have tried clearing the displayed value with 'selecteditem = Nothing' with no success plus whatever else I try. [code]...

View 6 RepliesI just couldn't find the right words to say it but, the thing is, I just want to make a certain word inside a paragraph bold. The word will be automatically set to bold in runtime. See for example the words 'John' shall be all set to bold.
Here is the
tempstr = tempstr.Replace(vbTab, "")
Dim secstr As String = tempstr.Replace(Chr(10), " ")
str = Split(secstr, " ")
[Code]....
the output of the above code is, it only makes the first occurence bold. All other word "John" are just set to Regular text when what I want is to make it all bold.
What is lacking? I used the "for each loop" to visit all the words.
I have a DataGridView with cells from a database file that contains data. Basically, I want to get the text from the selected cells in the DataGridView and display it in a textbox at the click of the button. The code for the button click event is:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim SelectedThings As String = DataGridView1.SelectedCells.ToString
TextBox1.Text = SelectedThings
End Sub
However in TextBox1 I get:
System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewSelectedCellCollection
I'm thinking it isn't as simple as it seems. I'm a C developer just learning VB.NET.
