I have spent the last hours trying to make an easy fix for this. Setting it to enabled=false is no good in this case. What I was looking for is a way to prevent the user to place the cursor in a multiline textbox. This is a read only textbox, and the user can't type anything in it, but for some reason he can still place the cursor in it, that is what I try to prevent.

just trying to work out some functions, like time delays and such and autoclickers.What I have is two command buttons and one textbox, and what I want this program to do is make a mouseclick according to the time inserted into the textbox (in milliseconds). e.g say someone types in "500", after button 1("START") is clicked, the mouse will click every 500 milliseconds, and button 2 ("STOP") will halt execution. Also, would this continue execution in the background, if i have other programs open? I've been able to make a program that has a timer which ticks at the specified time, I just can't get it to make the mouse click, i've tried "cmdButton.PerformClick" but thats not working,

I have a multiline textbox that while a file is read in some data is echo'ed out onto the textbox. Is is possible to programatically scroll the object down to the bottom? Changing everything over to a combobox and then changing the selected index would essentially do what I want, but the user needs to select/copy a bunch of lines.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to make a textbox at runtime, Dim t as Control
t = New Textbox
t.Multiline = True
t.Size = New Size(300,120)
Form1.Controls.Add(t)
I found out that you can only size a textbox when Multiline is set true. And that's the problem. When I use t.Mutiline = true I get the error " 'multiline' is not a member of 'system.windows.forms.control' "

I'm trying to make my own control in for .NET using VB and I'm having problems achieving what I want to do. In fact, I'm making a control which inherit from the textbox class and the only modification I'm trying to bring to it is that if the control is visibly full, the user can't type anymore. So:
Scrollbars should never appear.The extended TextBox may be multiline or singleline.The extended TextBox may have different fonts and font sizes.Right now, the technique i'm using is graphics.measurestring to get a sizeF containing the width and the height of my string to compare it to the height and width of my textbox control. All this in the KeyDown event (I don't know of it's the best solution). I can get it to work fine for the width but I can't seem to ge the height right in a multiline textbox.
I was trying back yesterday to count the visible lines in a textbox, which is multiline, and found this article: [URL] but... it didn't work... The code worked fine, but sometimes it returned like, 5 or 4, when I counted the visible lines, and there was 2.. If you know what's wrong/have any answer for this it would be nice :)
View 9 RepliesI am quite new to visual basic and databases. Im connecting to the database using the dataset wizard in visualbasic 2008. And then dragging each text field on to the form. Everything works well, saves etc., updates ok. Until I have a multiline text box , when I try and save, Iget errors highlighting the table update code and get an error saying it cant be converted to a string. I have changed all the max text limit on the database so its not that. It works ok if I set the textbox back to a single line mode. Does these databases support multiline textboxes?
View 1 RepliesI've been ttrying to code an app that will act like the VB intellisense, without the added properties. In short, when I type (in a multiline RichTextBox), the letter t I would like the populated listbox show at that point (because "Then" is a word in the listbox) and if I click "Then" in the listbox have it "autocomplete" the word and display it in the color blue.
lstKeyWords.Location = rtb1.GetPositionFromCharIndex(rtb1.Selectionstart + 10)
lstKeyWords is the ListBox and rtb1 is the RichTextBox - This was the only way I could get the ListBox to show in the "almost" correct position?

i am trying to put a maximum row number of lines in a multiline textbox. What i want is to achieve something like a console, with a maximum number of rows, with the top rows to dissappear and to keep always the last i.e. 500 rows. a note: for the textbox text i use the following algorithm
dim text
textbox.text = textbox.text & vbcrlf & text
the problem is that after a certain number of rows the program starts to get a little slow. So i guess if i put a limit to the rows i will fix this.
I have this [code]...
And what i am doing here is removing a peice of text from my multiline textbox (textbox7), But its not working..?
We want to Replace some text from a textbox (multiline) with = the text in our combobox and we want to replace it with its new one (in a textbox)
heres our code
If TextBox7.Text.Contains(ComboBox1.Text) Then
TextBox7.Text.Replace(ComboBox1.Text, TextBox1.Text)
End If
so that says, If the textbox(multiline) contains whats in our combobox, then replace it with the text in textbox1..
