View 4 RepliesForms :: Can Make Variable Actually Seen As A Variable?
Feb 17, 2011I have a VBA form in Microstation I am using to try and help automate a task. The only problem I am having is I am reading a textbox (Filebox.Text) and setting it as the variable (FN). It works, because I used Msg.Box (FN) to test it. However, in two of the lines of code, I am trying to use (FN) to pass the typed in filename to the command to run in Microstation. Unfortunently, it gets passed on as (FN).dgn instead of the actual filenale typed into the textbox. Is there a way I can make the variable actually seen as a variable? Code on Pastebin: url....Also, not sure if this is the right section, 100% new to VBA, coming from a world Bashed together.

View 1 RepliesForms :: Can't Pass Variable From One Form To Another?
Jun 8, 2011I have one form, which the user enters upto 5 websites then clicks go - I have on the second form, the one with the webbrowser. A timer which checks if the web browser is busy then either a green light or black image will be shown along side the assocaited input box on the first form.I am finding it impossible to feed variables into the clock through ByVal, like I would a subroutine or function.
Private Sub ActiveMe_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ActiveMe.Tick
If ((WebBrowser1.IsBusy)) Then
Hey.BackColor = Color.Black[code]....
'Error message says Hey is not declared, as i can't pass it through to timer
The variable Hey is determined by the first form - Which picturebox.I have an if statement which simply says if inputbox one has url enter then Hey = Picturebox1, If input box2 has url entered then Hey= Picturebox2 etc.What I want is the timer to check the page has completed loading or is still loading or refresing and the appropriate green or black to be shown aside url input box on first form.I considered using a sub or procedure to act as a clock (a large for loop with another for loop within it, acting as a delay). But found this slowed down theapp to the point of crashing it.

Forms :: Reference Form Using Variable
Aug 18, 2010I have an application consisting of 2 forms (Form1 and Form2).There is a text box on each form and they are both named Text1.From a sub routine in a module, I want to alter a text box on one of the forms. The sub determines which form to write to and attempts to refer to the form using a variable.But in the example below, gForm never gets declared when it's nested within the If statement.[code]The actual application is not so simple and I need to use this or a similar approach throughout the application in order to reduce code redundancy.To recap, I want to alter a control on a form by replacing the form name with a variable name.

View 4 RepliesForms :: Set A Boolean Variable To True?
Aug 18, 2010I am trying to up a private sub routing based on the Text Changed Event for a listbox, inside of the event, I want to set a boolean variable to true. I have it set up, but for some reason it is not getting called.
Basically what I am doing is the user is being prompted to enter data in an input box. I am taking the data that is entered on the input box and populating it in a list box. I want to know if the text in the listbox has been changed, hence changing the blnIsChanged = True
Can I use text changed with a listbox???
Forms :: Using Variable As Part Of Control Name
Jul 25, 2009Basically, I have a large number of text boxes. Within these text boxes, I'll be doing calculations based on user input and other things. These boxes will be grouped by numbers, eg Cost1, Profit1, Stock1... Cost26, Profit26, Stock26. Without too much explanation, I went to write a FOR loop to perform a repetitive calculation across multiple groups, and the following line came up.
FOR num = 1 TO 26
Cost(num).text = ItemCost
What I've tried to do is use a variable to decide which 'Cost' textbox, from the available 26, to use in the calculation. For whatever reason, it won't work. I would like to be able to use a variable to specify exactly which textboxes I want used, so that on the 3rd pass of the loop, the 3rd box is used, and on the 19th pass, the 19th box is used. Otherwise, I'd just have to do each calculation separately, and write the same thing 26 times, with slightly different numbers.
