I think this capitalizes the first letter in the word "trUe" and makes the rest of the letters lowercase. Like: True
Dim strName
strName = "trUe"
strName = StrConv(strName, vbProperCase)
How would I make it so that if trUe is entered into the RichTextBox1 then it is automatically converted into: "True" ?
txtSubject1Info.SelectionStart = txtSubject1Info.Find("Hey!")
I am finding specific words in the RichTextBox (in this case, "Hey!") and selecting them by getting their initial position through the "Find" command. Unfortunately, this does not work when I have multiple instances of "Hey!" in the RichTextBox. Here's an example:
Text in RichTextBox:
Hey! This is cool!
The Find command would return a value of 0 in this case. However, let's take a look at another scenario:
Text in RichTextBox:
In this case, the Find command would return a value of 0 again, but I want it to get the initial position of the second "Hey!" statement. I'm wondering how I can do this.
I have a richtextbox with a large file inside....I want to be able to search for "Fornication" within the text (KJV Bible) and have every instance of that word to pop up into another richtextbox along with the scripture it is in.

View 1 Replieswhen i copy code from vb.net code window, and paste it in my richtextbox, the color synthax is as it displays in my vb.net code window.. this i want to keep when finding and replacing words. i have the following code to find and replace,
RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text.Replace("Private Sub", "<font color=blue>Private Sub</font>")
but the color syntax of the richtextbox code is lost, looks like a textbox's text.. how do i replace the words and keep the synthax coloring?
any other approach on finding next word in a string. What im trying solve is this.
Lets say this is the whole paragraph.
Hello visual basic
Hello visual basic
Hello visual basic
Hello visual basic
Hello visual basic
Hello visual basic
now i search for the word basic.if i press the button find. the first "basic must highlighted, and then if i press again the button the next "basic" is the highlighted one and so on.I already finsih that scenario. What i've done is that first im going to search all the positions of the word and then store it in a array. Then after the array populated with different location of the word that is searching. that is the time i call all the indexes of the array one by one. But i don't want my approach because imagine i have 10000 words. and i search for a word or letter. Lets say the result is 5000 match. so it needs my array to be size in 5000. what a mess in memory.
I don't want to used the FinsString or Find function of VB i want some algorithm to do this. Anyone have a easy approach..
I'm using vb.net to check that certain Excel or Word documents exist in a folder.
EG
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyExcelFile.xls")
strFileFound = Dir("C:TestFolderMyWordDoc.doc")
If the documents are created using Excel 97 or Word 97 the files are found. If the the documents are created using Excel 2007 or Word 2007 the files are not found.
I have checked the permissions between the two different versions and they appear to be the same.
why Dir dosen't work with Excel 2007 and Word 2007 files?

I am not an ardent developer in vb.net programming. But off late I am using vb.net to develop a windows application.
The following is what I am trying to do:
I am reading an excel file and storing the string value present in each cell, and trying to match the string in a word file.
The program works fine except that I am having problems in returning the page numbers of the matched string.
The page number value is always returned as one.
The following is a piece of what I had written:
If FindStringInFile(wordfilename, vValues) Then
currentPageNumber = word.ActiveDocument.ActiveWindow.Selection.Range.Information(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdInformation.wdActiveEndAdjustedPageNumber)
TextBox3.Text = currentPageNumber
End If
wordfilename is my word file and vValues is my excel string data

View 2 RepliesI'm developing a command line application in Visual Basic .Net 2005 for converting RTF files into TXT. The application works perfect except for one thing. The files saved with MS Word containing some textbox make trouble. I'll explain it better with an example
1 - I open MS Word, I create a new document.
2 - I insert a texbox and i write some words inside.
3 - I save the file as RTF.
4 - I use my command line application for converting the RTF into TXT. The text inside the textbox doesn't appear anywhere.
The thing is that if I open the RTF file with wordpad it shows the text. It's not in a text box, but it shows it.The problem is that this application will read files uploaded by users automatically so I can't just leave it like this, I have to take into account that there is the possibility that some user will save an RTF file with a textbox inside so I need it to be able to get the contents of the textbox the same way wordpad does.
Here is the code
Try
Dim args(2) As String
args = System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs
Dim c As New System.Windows.Forms.RichTextBox

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to find a way to change the color of one word when appending text to a Rich text box. So if I append the sentence "This is a sentence with a specific word in one color" The entire thing will be in black except for the word "specific" it will be in red or any color I choose. The same thing will happen if the next line appended is "Please be specific in your request". All back except for the word "specific". I don't want the text added then someone has to click a button to change the color. It should happen as it's appended.
