Keep Text Selected When Focus Changes VB 2005?

May 6, 2009

I am working on a form that allows the user to open a plaintext file into a rich text box.The user can search for a word using a textbox and a find button. The word is then highlighted. I cannot figure out how to keep the word highlighted or selected when I type in my replace box or click anywhere else on the form, the word is no longer selected. have a replace button, which will replace any single instance of a word. But my replace all button is supposed to replace all of the words, and count the number of replacements it makes and display that number in a message box

Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Visual Studio 2005 - ComboBox's Selected Value Changed On Lost Focus In .NET?

Oct 12, 2009

I have a datagridview(dgv) with a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn(colLocation)

colLocation.AutoComplete = False
colLocation.HeaderText = "Stored to"
colLocation.DataSource = DB.getLocation()

[code]....

I added the colLocation to dgv."descirption" contains Unicode characters. I can see the comboBox correctly and choose the item.The problem is when the comboBox lost the focus, the value is changed to first item of the comboBox.

Updated:I found out that the ComboBox doesn't change the data when the DisplayMember is in English characters. It changes only when the DisplayMember is in Unicode chracter.

VB Datagrid Disable AutoScrolling Focus On Selected Column?

Jun 7, 2011

My problem is I have a data grid in Visual Basic, it works fine but as the columns extend past the width of the window I needed a scroll bar. This is where the problem arose. When a column past the 4th is clicked the scrollbar will shift to give it focus. As there are check boxes here they are constantly clicked and when they are the scroll bar shifts but the button isn't checked and must be clicked again. I was hoping there was a way to disable this Auto focus so clicking a column will not cause the scrollbar to move.

Text Field Will Not Focus

May 16, 2012

I'm working on this project, and when the form loads it should automatically put the Focus on the username field if it is empty, however if there is a username - put the focus on where you write your message.Below is the code, and it simply doesn't seem to work for whatever reason. I have tried several methods of it, and even commented out every other line of code in the application to make sure there was no interference, and there was none. is there anything that could possibly overwrite the ability to do this? Some setting I need to change? etc etc?

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Focus On A Text Box On Form Load?

Mar 4, 2009

On my Form_Load event, I simply have a code which is simply Text1.Focus and Text1.SelectAll. Neither of these actually works. I've also tried this on the Visible_Changed event and checked if the form is visible.

I can create a button with this code in and it works fine. Is this something to do with the text box not actually being visible at the time when the code is executed? It's driving me mad!

Select Textbox Text On Focus?

Jun 18, 2011

I'm using the code below to select the text within my textbox during the mousedown event. It works great when the HeaderChanged sub is not called. The problem is, the HeaderChanged sub will always be called on the textbox's focus event.If the user clicks the far right portion of the textbox the whole text value will be selected (like it should), but if the user clicks near the left side of the textbox only a portion of the text will be selected.
