I am using Visual studio 2008 and I need to be able to adjust a font size using an expression.So far I have,
IIf((Len(First(Fields!CardID.Value, "data"))> 30), "12 pt", "72 pt")
I know I have to reference the LEN variable to get the total character size, but I'm not sure how.

I have a program which draws a U.S. map on the screen. This display looks great on my wide-screen (16:9) monitor, but it looks a little stretched horizontally on my wife's standard (4:3) monitor. Is there some way I can tell VB to automatically adjust the picture when a standard resolution is being used?
If not, am I correct in thinking that standard definition monitors are going the way of the dinosaur, much like is happening with TV's, and in the future we'll be seeing more and more wide-screen monitors.
My application communicates with DB's, images, etc. which are located on our company server/domain.
In real-world use, the app is used only by users on this server/domain. I have connection strings and various other settings which point to the sever for the user. While I'm developing/testing, I may or may not be connected/authenticated to the server/domain. There are many times when I am not.
Currently, I manually change each setting to point to a local address containing copies of needed items when I'm not on the server/domain.My goal is to develop a method to automatically determine whether that domain is available. If not, adjust settings as needed in code. This is for my benefit, while developing.
I'm fishing for various methods/techniques people have developed or use to accomplish this.
I can't change change the font size or font name or color of the text in the DHTML Editing Control. I have 2 listbox controls FontNameList containing all of the installed fonts on my PC and FontSizeList containing some numbers to be used as fontsize and I use the execommand and build my App but the font did not change instead it grew bigger but when I tryed to change it back it stayed the same. The Code for that was:
Design.ExecCommand(5044, False, Font.Name)

View 1 RepliesHow do I set the default font for controls (VB 2008), e.g., labels, text boxes, etc. I see how to set default fonts for objects in the IDE but not how to set the default for controls I add to forms. I hope I don't have to create custom controls as this would be time-consuming.
View 5 RepliesI have a number of questions about richtextbox.
1. How do I change the font by clicking a button.
2. Also I want a Find control but how do I get it to find it then select it.
3. Lastly I am having a Find and Replace where it finds the text in a textbox and then replaces it with what ever is in another textbox.
I'm trying to figure out how to change the font in a RichTextBox without having to select the text I want to change first. I know I can select text and change it like this:
RichTextBox1.SelectionStart = RichTextBox1.Find("working")
Dim tfont As New Font("Arial", 16, FontStyle.Regular)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = tfont
What I want to do is set a font and then any text added to the richtextbox will use that font. Then I want to set another font and all text after that point will use that font and so on. I'm adding text to the RichTextBox with code, but I'd eventually like to add a RichTexBox to an app where the user enters the text and can change fonts like a word processor.What I'm try to accomplish would go something like this:
' Set the font for the header here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mHeader & vbCrLf
'Set the font for the body here
rtbPrint.Text = rtbPrint.Text & mBody & vbCrLf
