I was a professional software designer using VB6. Now that I've converted to VB2005 years later, use, with pages of unrelated information. With VB6 I could use Left$, Mid$, etc to parse keyboard input into a string. For example in the KeyPress event of a name box I could use
Case "A" To "Z"
CFName$ = Left$(CFNameBox.Text, CFNameBox.SelStart) + Key$ + Mid$(CFNameBox.Text, CFNameBox.SelStart + CFNameBox.SelLength + 1)
When converting a program from VB6 to VB2005 the software changed the line to
CFName = VB.Left(CFNameBox.Text, CFNameBox.SelectionStart) & Key & Mid(CFNameBox.Text, CFNameBox.SelectionStart + CFNameBox.SelectionLength + 1)
When writing another program I used the VB.Left(), etc, but it gives me an error. So, the question is, what is the correct way to capture keyboard input from text boxes and construct strings?
i am use vb 2003 windows app with access 2003 database i want this code to check for numeric input only in the last text box CompanyProdPriceTxBx.Text

I have a reset button created in my VB form, but don't know how to code it so that it will accomplish what I want. I want it to clear the form's text boxes so that new input can be entered. I could just code an end statement but this closes the form, and I want to keep it open to continue working with it.
View 6 RepliesI'm familiar with Visual C# and the try/catch for that but I cannot seem to figure out how to do the same thing in VB. Basically I can't figure out how to get the try/catch to work with text boxes and input from the user and whatnot.I've tried setting the textbox.text property = "" but that has no use, I've been trying to find something on Google about it but I cannot seem to find a single thing about textbox try/catch statements. Is it possible to do it with text boxes?
View 5 RepliesFor example, I clicked the Add Text box button, so it added 3 text boxes in the form (I used Dynamic text box so it can add multiple text box). When I input data to one of those 3 text boxes and then Save button has been clicked. It should checked whether the dynamic text boxes are empty or not. If there are empty text boxes, then saving data to db should not be continued and display a message telling the user that empty field(s) are invalid.
In the code below, it saves the data even if there are empty text boxes and I think because it is in the for loop, it checks the text boxes one by one and repeatedly displays the message box that I coded.
Here's the complete code:
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Public Class Form3

I'm using VB 2008 express edition.I have to show the growth of savings in a bank account using input from two text boxes that will be deposit amount and interest rate. I have attached a picture of my form.I have declared my variables and now I'm working on my processing.When the compute button is hit, based on the deposit amount and the interest rate, the amount of years it takes to double the money and the amount of years it takes to become a millionaire with that amount will be displayed in the lower text boxes.
Here's some of my math reasoning...
Doubling time formula : 2P = P(1+ i)^n I tried solving for ^n and got: n = logP(1 + i)/log2P
Is this correct? How do I express logarithms in VB?As for the amount of years that it takes to become a millionaire, can I simply take the deposit amount for example $500 dollars and divide 1,000,000 by 500 to get 2000 so it takes 2000 deposits of 500 dollars each to reach 1 million. Is my arithmetic correct?
I need to to able to save multiple text-boxes and a combo-box to a text file. the thing is, when I go to save, I check out the .txt file manually and its saved all in one line, no spaces. when I go to "read" it with the 2nd part (<-----this is a 2 part Challenge) it even reads all from that one line in the text file. What i'm asking is how can I make my text-boxes saved in the text file on different lines. [Code]
View 10 RepliesWhat i am trying to do is save text from a number of text boxes to a user named file then subsequently be able to reload the data back into the same text boxes at a later date.so far i have this which was provided for elsewhere on the web, this allows me to save comma delineated data to a file which is fine but i can't seem to reload the data. As an experiment i have just tried to reload it back into a rich text box to see if the process would work but nothing as yet.

What i am looking to do is to be able to save/load all the values filled into a form. For example The user has entered the
name: "Tim"
address: "123 Fake Street"
phone: ""
And then saves. When the come back and load this i want to be able to load it back exactly like that so the can continue with what they are doing. And if there are to open a different person they can continue with that one where they stopped. I want to be able to save them all at once and load them at once.
I am coding a program and I want it to save what the user types in for next load up.So for example...
User types 'hello' in texbox1
User closes program.
User opens program few days later.
User sees in textbox1 it says 'hello'
can I convert the input in the text box and save it into database in pdf file?
View 8 RepliesIs there a simple way to save user input from MANY controls (textboxes, comboboxes, etc...) to a text file? When I say 'MANY', I am referring to at least 580 textboxes and several dozen comboboxes.
I may be able to accomplish this using the StreamWriter Class, but doing this individually would take quite a long time. I suppose I could also change all text boxes to richTextBoxes and save to .rtf. It seems like this would be even more time consuming.
Surely there is a simpler way to do this 'globally', perhaps with an added single line of code that points (and saves) to a preset or created text.txt file whenever text is added or changed in a textbox or combobox throughout the program.
how do i code this. my textbox length is 5 and i input only 2 numbers and i want it to save in textfile as 5 Digit ex. i input 2 number in textbox and should be save it as 00012 how can i code this?

View 14 RepliesSo as the name states; I am a newer coder.
This is the code i have:
Public Sub RandomNumbers()
Dim s(4) As String
Dim RandomNumber As Byte
I don't know if you can tell what I am trying to do here, so I will try to explain. I what to create for random numbers and place them into for different text boxes. I also would like to do this with combo boxes and their selected indexes. So if the combo box has 10 items in it; the new selected index would be the random number generated above.
I'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.
