My problem is that I have this code to paste text from my Web Browser into a richtextbox, but when the text is pasted, a new line is started (as if the text pasted in was a string and then the "enter button was used") So if I consistantly paste in the word "code" for example, I would get[code]...
View 1 RepliesI want to have a msgbox when user press 'backspace' in the textbox.
I wrote this:
Private Sub TextBox2_KeyPress(ByVal KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 8 Then
MsgBox("backspace")
End If
End Sub
Why it doesn't work?
I'm writing an in-house intranet application in ASP.NET and VB.NET. My 'customers' are beginner to medium-level users. All of our browsers are IE8 and above, standard.The application works great, except for one thing. The backspace key. When a user types an invalid number into a textbox, a RegularExpressionValidator and ValidatorCalloutExtender fire off and notify the user. Perfect. Except that, when the user closes the popup warning and notices the cursor is still flashing in the textbox, he/she feels it's time to hit the backspace key and delete that pesky field value.
Unfortunately, the browser interprets this action as a desire to go 'back' into the page history. My boss is screaming. His bosses are screaming. I have a headache.So, how can I turn off this behavior? I still need the backspace to eliminate characters in the textbox, but nothing else. Company policy here: Backspace is to delete characters from the screen. Nothing more, nothing less.
can i disable backspace in my keyboard in vb 2005.

I got this nice piece of code from someone on this forum which only allows user to input numbers or backspace i need to modify it to allow the - sign so user can input a negative number Can someone share with me the code to modify this

If e.KeyChar = Chr(8) Then e.Handled = False 'allow Backspace
I need a backspace function for my program .. Basically I have a textbox where I can put numbers .. what I want is when I press a button it deletes the last character of the textbox
View 3 RepliesIs there any way to exchange backspace with delete key. I hav used this code in key_down event of rtb
if e.KeyCode = Keys.Back then
SendKeys.Send ("{DELETE}")
endif
but now it works as both backspace and delete.
You need to test for the backspace character, and if it's there, fix up the input.Maybe something like this:
If Right$(TxtQP.Text, 1) = vbBs Then
TxtQP = Left$(TxtQP, len(TxtQP)-1)
End If
Or is the backspace not showing up in the string, but as the input character kicking off your procedure?
Below is the code I am using to restrict user from entering any other characters except for the predefined ones. But using my code I cannot hit backspace.
How to include backspace also ?
Dim s As String = "0123456789$"
If s.IndexOf(e.KeyChar) = -1 Then
e.Handled = True
End If
I have built an addin for outlook that has a usercontrol shimmed into the interface. Everything works wonderfully EXCEPT for one textbox on one subpanel of the control. I have tried everything I can think of, but have not been able to resolve the issue:
The textbox *(A regular System.Windows.Forms.Textbox) functions as you would expect in any application with one exception. It will NOT accept the backspace key. So much so that the KeyDown, KeyPress, KeyUp events will not even fire when I press the backspace key. There does not seem to be any parameter suppressing it, and the control has focus. What is even stranger is that it works completely fine if you hold down the shift key while pressing the backspace key.

I am using Visual Basic Express 2008.I have added the following code to my text box:

I have two textboxes and as the user types in one I want to append the text to another textbox.How do I allow the user to delete characters in the first textbox with backspace/delete key and have those changes replicated in the 2nd textbox?
View 3 RepliesMy Ciphering program, Ciphers words from one text box to another one. A letter is put in front of each word to tell the length of the that word. Every character that gets entered into the text box will change the outputs text box. I am going to use HELLO as an example. The Number one, will represent the Original text, the number Two will represent the Ciphered text. [Code]
As you see, the first letter is the length of the word, as I said before. The other letters or gotten by getting the position of the letter in the alphabet and adding it with the length of the word. H H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and so far, the length of the word is one. So you do 8 + 1 which is 8. AI That is where I got the I in this right here. HE H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and now the word length is 2, so 8 + 2 = 10. The 10 letter in the alphabet is J, so the I in AI turns to J.
E is the 5 letter in the alphabet. 5 + 2 = 7. The 7 letter in the alphabet is G. That is where the G comes from. BJG The B is the second letter in the alphabet, and there is 2 letters in the word.
In order for me to keep track of each word, I store each word in a dictionary. That is the only method that I could get to work while using the word length character (The character in front of each word)
My big problem is if I want to backspace and go back for it to edit that word that it took a letter of.
My program know that there is a new word because when it recognizes that the selected character = " ", it creates a new add in the dictionary. Here is an example of 2 words that are ciphered.
HELLO THERE
EMJQQT EYMJWJ
I split it at the T to show you the 2 different words, and that the first word is ciphered the exact same as it was in the example at the top of the page.
Now I am pretty sure that I could get it to edit the most frequent word, but I know I would not be able to edit the past words because it seems that when I add something to the dictionary, it stays local as the variables, and not as new for its self. [Code]
That is not even close to exactly what the code looks like, but it is close I guess. Redundant, I know.What it does is for that word, each Letter is getting added to the Dictionary and is called by the number 1. So when H is typed, H gets added to item 1. When E is typed, item 1 is now HE, and so on for that whole word.
When a character = " ", a new dictionary is added but adding one to DicNum, and then repeating the process. What I have found out is that it will not keep the first dictionary, and come to think of it I only think that it keeps the most recent letter that was added to the dictionary.
The day that I was working on this I was searching for a while on how to use join, but found nothing. My question is, is there a better way or more efficient way to cipher each word and then edit the word that is being edited by backspace? Lets leave out the part where Dictionary1 and Dictionary2 or not need. [Code]
my problem is I dont know what string i have to add here for the backspace. this is the line of the problem:
