Make Non-TextBoxes Appear ReadOnly?
Mar 23, 2011
Is there any way of making controls that aren't textboxes into readonly controls? Specifically I have a date time picker (but I have the problem occasionally with other controls), that I want to make ReadOnly as opposed to disabled so that the user can see clearly what is in the control but cannot edit it. Making a control like this disabled makes it hard to read and furthermore, gives the impression to the user that they are to ignore the field, which defeats the object.
I'm sure a suggestion will also be to stick the information into a text box, however there are other date time picker controls that CAN be edited in the same window, and it would make life a lot easier if the layout of each was exactly the same.

I am using a PropertyGrid control to edit my class properties and I am trying to set certain properties read-only depending on other property settings.This is the code of my class:
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class PropertyClass[code].....
This is the code I am using to edit the values:
Dim c As New PropertyClass
PropertyGrid1.SelectedObject = c
The problem is that when I set SomeProperty to True, nothing happens and when I then set it to False again it sets all properties Read-Only.

in An MDI form , i make a childform with textboxes. these textboxes are produced by the code, like this:
For i As Integer = 0 To number Step 1
Dim TextBox As New TextBox
ChildForm.Controls.Add(TextBox)
[Code]....
In another sub within the MDI class i want to read the data from the textboxes, but got an error that says txtBox1 is not a member of 'WindowsApplication1.Form1'.This is true because they do not exist yet. How can i handle this? I think it has something to do with "delegate and invoke", but this seems to be hard to understand.

This works if I don't have an IfElse statement but even then it only shows 1 txtBox().I want 4 panels and 4 rows of textboxes in each one. with multiple txtbox()'s in each oneI'm just starting on it, but as usual I hit an error, see below. Also, how do I get this code in here without the double spacing problem?
Dim pnlbox(4)
As Panel
Dim txtBox(70)

I'm having trouble with the Try...Catch code. I'm trying to make the textboxes only accept letters A, B, C, or D as answers from the user. I'm also having trouble matching the two arrays. I wanted it to be like if textbox1 is A then it is correct but in a loop. Please take a look at my code.

I was looking for some better way of coding to populate all text boxes and make them visible once a button is clicked. I have a letter like format on a page with labels displaying address, name etc and it was recommended that on this page some of the information should be able to be edited. The idea I had was to keep the labels displaying the information but then when the edit details button is clicked the labels disappear, text boxes will appear and be populated with the same text as the label to allow the user to edit the details.
I seem to repeating lines of code but changing one thing each time on page load
Dim Sname As String = Request.QueryString("Name")
lblStuName.Text = Sname
tbStuName.Text = Sname
tbStuName.visible=false
[Code] .....
On edit button
tbStuName.visible=true
tbAddress.visible = true
etc..
On the save button
sqlStatement = "UPDATE StuTable SET Name = '" & lblStuName.Text & "', Address = '" & lblAddress.Text
My code seems very repetitive in many parts, I was looking for a better coding style to do this.

lnameTxBx.TextChanged, streetTxBx.TextChanged, cityTxBx.TextChanged
Dim theText As String = fnameTxBx.Text

I'm trying to make a Doctor's program where the doctor has to enter the patients detail into several text boxes (Name, Age, Address...). So, after he has entered all the information, he would want to save it somehow so he could open up the information
again. How would i do that. I thought it could be saved in a database, or even in a text file.

On my form, i've got some textboxes and some richtextboxes. I'm using the following code, to search through the text properties of each of the two types of control. see below:-
For Each ctl As Control In Me.Controls
If ctl.Text = "7777" Then
ctl.Text = "found the sevens"
End If
Next
What i'd like to do is isolate the textboxes only, is there a way to do that? I tried this but i got an error:-
For Each box As TextBox In Me.Controls
If box.Text = "7777" Then
box.Text = "Found"
End If
Next
