Textbox - When User Presses Ctrl And Enter Then New Line Entered
May 10, 2012
Inside a multiline Text Box I want it so that when a user presses Ctrl AND Enter then a new line is entered. But, if they press Enter on it's own, then it acts like the Accept button on the Form. I believe this is how Facebook does it.
Ctrl+Enter=NewLine Enter=Accept

I'm trying to find out a way to detect when ever the user presses CTRL -ALT - DEL or Window + L to lock the PC.The code I'm using is
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
If (GetAsyncKeyState(17) AndAlso GetAsyncKeyState(18) AndAlso GetAsyncKeyState(46)) Or ((GetAsyncKeyState(91) Or GetAsyncKeyState(92)) AndAlso GetAsyncKeyState(76)) Then[code]....
However, as soon as the user presses CTRL-ALT-DEL the Windows Security Screen comes up and it is too fast for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.I did a little reaserch on how to work around this issue and found that a GINA stub can be written which can delay the Windows Security Screen by some time say 2 secs which would be enough for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.Also disabling Ctrl-Alt-Del through VB does not work because it is too fast for VB and I would like not to disable CTRL-ALT-DEL

I have a ToolStripTextBox (the name of it is SearchBox) and I would like it when after the user types something and presses enter it takes them to a URL. I've got the URL part sorted out, but I need to know what goes afterI don't see any event in the intellisense popup for something when the user presses "enter."So, in other words, how do I perform an action after the user presses enter?
Private Sub ToolStripComboBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SearchBox.**?????**

I've got a (hopefully) quick question. I've got textboxes attached to a binding source on one of my forms, and when I add, then clear, the data for the next entry to be added a small problem arises. If the user has previously entered something into, for example, Textbox3 and the user does not have the data for Textbox3 the user cannot move to the next field unless something is entered into the box.

I need to add a code to this piece of code.
Quote:
SetCursorPos(714, 813)
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN, 0, 0, 0, 0)
mouse_event(MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP, 0, 0, 0, 0)[code]......
When the cursor presses on the location, it will write in the box the word Enter. Now what I want it to do is, instead of writing the enter, it would get the word from a textbox1 and would write it in the box that the cursor pressed.

I have an autocomplete textbox in vb.net. It is working fine, but now I need to pop up the window again when the user hits enter or double clicks. So far, I know that when the user hits enter, the keydown event raises with e.kecode = 13. I guess my code would go here. My problem is how do I tell autocomplete to start again after the user hits enter??

I started learning vb 2010 over the internet for about an a week and got stuck on this assignment that I got from the internet
1.Add one textbox so the user can enter a distance measured in feet. Add labels as needed.
2.Add a button control which when clicked is converts the feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meters), accepting floating point values and preserving them (no integer conversions) and display the output as shown next. 1 Points
3.Display the conversion result using a MessageBox (not msgbox) using this format: x feet is y meters, where x is the value entered and y is the result of the conversion to meters with up to 2 decimal places only. Then show an extra line of "Would you like to start another distance conversion?" and make the No button the default in the message popup and display the question icon.
4. If the user chooses Yes, cleanup the controls as in the Reset button. 0.5 Point
5.If the user clicks no, ask in another MessageBox if the user wants to quit.
6.If the user chooses to quit, close the window, otherwise no action is required.

I may be doing this wrong but I want to call a sub when the user presses enter on a textbox. The sub then shows a window in dialog mode. When I close that window, the computer makes a ding sound. Why is that? Is there a better way for detecting enter being presses on a textbox and not getting that ding?
If e.KeyChar = vbCr Then
LookupItem()
End If

Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
Label1.Text = e.KeyChar
End Sub
This detects when the user presses a character key and outputs it via Label1.text, but it doesnt work on all keys?
