Moving Cursor From Combobox To Textbox After Selection?
Jun 22, 2010
I have a VB form with 2 comboboxes and a textbox in which a user can type into.I would like my mouse cursor to move from my 2nd combobox selection directly over to the textbox that I have on a VB form.2nd comboboxe name: "CodeComboBox"Textbox name where I would like my cursor to move to after the selection:"USDOTNumtxt"I use the TextBoxName.Focus() in the SelectedIndexChanged but it doesn't function.
Here is my whole code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles
selects a part of the text and sets the cursor (blinking beam) at the and of the selection, in this case the first caracters of the selected text is out of the user sight because the textbox is too small to display the entire selection.
Is it possible to force the cursor to be at the beginning of the selection so the first part of the text is visible? (as if I had selected my text with the mouse dragging from the end back towards the beginning)
I have a form with a combobox and a textbox. The combobox is used to select a username and the textbox displays the staff No. I use the following code to populate the combobox.Private Sub DeleteUser_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
I have a form, frm1 w/a combobox, cboLocations, which is being populated using a sql string. There is also a frm2 w/a series of textboxes and other comboboxes. I want it so that once a selection is made from cboLocations, the textboxes and comboboxes on frm 2 are populated with the corresponding data. Here is what I have so far:
frm1: Public Class frmLocations Dim conn As New SqlConnection("Data Source=f03d3s-dev01; Initial Catalog=dos_track;User Id=vbuser; Password=tran3;") Dim depot_refnbr As Integer Private Sub frmLocation_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load conn.Open() [Code] .....
What's happening right now is that I make a selection from cboLocations on frm1 and click on the OK button, frm2 loads, but none of the textboxes are populating and one of the comboboxes, cboDepot, shows the different data when you click on the down arrow, but it's not displaying anything it its text field when frm2 loads.
I have a completely basic program here that I want to simply take text from a textbox and the selection from a combobox, and then run the following:
CODE:
Obviously WKID and PROCESS are the variables it will be pulling from the data that was put in by the user. That code was just in a simple batch file that I made with 2 variables. I am wanting to pull those 2 variables in when clicking the "kill process" button, it will run a command simliar to the above and end a process on a remote networked computer.
Visual Basic 2010 Express: I have a form with a combobox that is populated with the names of locations from a datagrid which in turn was imported at run-time (Form_Load) from an Excel database. The Excel database (and the datagrid) also stores the information for addresses and phone numbers for their respective locations.
What I would like to do is have the phone number and address text boxes automatically be updated with the proper corresponding data when the user selects a location from the combobox. Whether the text boxes are updated from the datagrid or Excel database is not a concern; I'm mainly looking for whichever way is simpler.
I have a very wired problem. I have a txtbox which i attempt to act like a password box (ie. everything you type becomes ****)
I use a simple counter that just shows a * for each time the text is changed.However the "typer" wount follow, it just stays in the beginning. so the result is that the code is spelled backwards.
I use the following code. try it for yourself if you dont understand
There are 15 check boxes in a form. User wants to use tab key and space bar to make checking. The problem is when user hits tab key, there is no cursor moving.I want to add gotfocus and lostfocus to make backcolor changing for check box.
i am having problem regarding focusing datagrid cursor at specified column.[code]which means that when i click on button labeled GOTO then cursor in datagrid moves to 3rd column in datagrid. but when i use the following code [code]i get an logicle error which says some thing like column name "CompanyName" not found.but when i checked my access file column named with CompanyName exists.
using the above for numbering in richtextbox, how I can trace if the cursor is in the selection.start which is in the place where numbering is there...
Is there a way to update source combobox to printer combobox selection?So going from printer1 to printer2 the source will update according to what that printer has to offer.
In our application, the customer can work with different client projects/datasets. If there are more than a few client projects to choose from, we display them in a listbox to start with, and then it is easy to preselect the last dataset that the customer was working with. However, if there are only a few client projects, we show them as options in a menu instead (think "recent documents"). When the application starts, I would like the menu to be opened automatically and the most recently used client project selected. Is there a way to open the main menu and a submenu of a form and select/focus (but not actually click) an item programmatically?
The old way that we were doing this in VB6 was to use SendKeys to send keystrokes to the form to open the menu and then arrow-down far enough to get to the most recent project, but that is kind of unclean. Particularly, if the user starts our application and then tabs away quickly to work in a different application, the keystrokes may end up being processed by that application instead.
I have created a form with a menu-strip containing sub-menus. The sub-menus will open on clicking the menu items but I am willing to display the sub menus on moving the cursor on menu items(mouse-hover). What will be the code for this? Is there any property in menu-strip to display like that?
I'm having a problem with combo boxes. I usually use Java and it's been awhile since I used VB but I never remember having this much difficulty.My application is using an SDF file. From Data Sources, I drag the details on one of my Tables to my Form to get all of the fields. Three of them are comboboxes. Each of the three is an INT64 and each corresponds to a primary key in a different table. I click the tasks button on a combobox and for data source I select the appropriate table that has the data to go with the combobox, for display member I select the field that I want users to see, and for value member I select the primary key. Then I run a quick test and start the app, open the form, and add a new record. When I select a value from the combobox the selection won't validate because it doesn't think it's an INT64 like it should be. It seems to be using the display member as the actual value instead because if I change display member to the primary everything works great.
I have two comboBoxes, one is CountryCombo and second is StateCombo.What I want is the that when i the clicks country combo and select a one country then the States of that the country should get populated in the State Combo.I have tried things many many many but nothing working. Below is my code of how my CountryCombo is getting filled.
query="select CountryName from CountryMaster" if dr.hasRows() {[code]......
I currently have a form with two comboxes. The first cbo is being populated with a project number, which is being pulled from the first column of a spreadsheet. I now want the second cbo to read the first cbo and then find that project number on the spreadsheet; when it finds that project number, I then need it to copy data from the row the project number is on. I have converted to vb from vba. Below is the code I used in vba (which obviously does not work). I only need certain cells from the project row.
Dim proj_num, rng As Range Dim data, i As Long, j As Long With Sheet1
I am building an app. that needs some input from the user, the user will have to move a (selected textbox) by clicking a button. The TextBox will have to move 20 points down or up from corent location by clicking a button.

Problem:I am not getting the cursor (4 arrowheads) for moving the form.I am using the Panel1_MouseHover to display the cursor. Right now if I choose any other cursor then it is working but the same cursor also displays when I hover the mouse over any other control. I want the cursor to show only in the areas of the Panel where there are no controls.How do I show Tooltips for the images? The play,stop,next, previous,playlist,Hideme(with the smiley),volume are all images and not buttons?
i have used the following code to populate a DataGrid based on the contents of a textbox. the users searches for a name which is populated into a combobox based on the name in the combobox several textboxes are populated with data based on the data in one of these text boxes Private bindingSource1 As New BindingSource
I have put all of the items from my Database into a Checkbox Selection, I now want to take the selection that the user makes from the checkbox and turn that into a string that I can then COMPARE through antoehr table.[code]...
I know this seems like a .Net 101 question but everybody has their own way of programming and I'm curious as to what is the preferred event for checking a ComboBox when a user makes a selection?
