I have a textbox which has some text on it and when the user will click on it,The problem is, as there is already a text on the textbox when the user will click will diappear to type his respective text, the program is saving the text written also. How to prevent that? All I want is to prevent the program saving a blank textbox and the text written on it?

I had used this code to validate email id in textbox,but it is not working properly?
Dim Expression As New System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex("^[a-zA-Z][w.-]*[a-zA-Z0-9]@[a-zA-Z0-9][w.-]*[a-zA-Z0-9].[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z.]*[a-zA-Z]$")
If Expression.IsMatch(Textbox1.Text) Then
MsgBox("The email address is valid.")
Else

My question is the last code tag section above where the parameters are set for the input.If on the form there is a textbox that is required (on the db side to not allow nulls) how would you perform the validation before you tried to execute the update sql?Ex: say 'SerialNumberTextbox.Text' was empty or if you needed to have character constraints on what was typed like varchar(15) and they have 16 or more characters

How to enter the date in the masked text box and how to validate it
View 2 RepliesOK, so i was going to verify a MaskedTextBox on whether the number input was or was not 10 digits in length. If not 10 digits, obviously they didn't put in a full phone number.
The problem is, even though you have no digits the length is still 10 so you can't check if the user put in 10 digits or not and return an error? Anyone got any ideas on testing for a phone number?I've seen tons of examples on date verification, but none on phone number verification.
Is there any possibility that I can put this large chunk of code to a function so that I can call and verify the input without having to repeat the code for every textbox.keyPress event.
Here it is:
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
With e

I have one textbox basically the user is going to enter in a 9 digit number or letters. From there I want to have a buttonclick event that validates this against 2 columns in a MSSQL Database. First to check if the number exists, next to check if it is active or inactive.
There are about 27000 rows of numbers so my main question is what is the best approach to handling something like this.
Should I create a view and validate in the click event. Should I create a stored procedure in sql that takes an input parameter and call it in the click event.
I was also reading about storing the information in a dataset however with that many records i am assuming that is going to be a slow process.
I need to amend the code below to cater for only two Decimal places. Anyone know how i can do this?

First off, let me apologize for my wording. I'm a student programmer and code primarily in JAVA so my my lingo may be a little skewed.I have created a method to create text boxes in my program that all have the same properties (ie certain text, size, font, fore color, backcolor,etc.) that looks like this:
[Code]...
I have a number of textboxes on a form, and I want them all to accept the ENTER key. When the ENTER key is pressed, I want it to trigger the validating event. I know it will look something like this:
Private Sub Textbox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Textbox1.KeyPress, Textbox2.Keypress
[Code].....
What code can I use to cause the validating event to fire? I'd prefer the focus to stay in the textbox.
Can I validate a texbox to have only True or false? You should enter True or false in the textbox.

Combobox, Textbox , NumericUpDown and MaskTextBox validation in VB?
View 2 RepliesI am new to visual basic. Below is my
Private Sub todayMonth_Validating(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs) Handles todayMonth.Validating
Dim tb As TextBox = DirectCast(sender, TextBox)

Actually, I wanted to validate the todayMonth textbox just to input number between 1 to 12. The problem comes out when I do this procedure : Lets say I input an interger 11 and it passes the validation and proceed to another textbox. Then I click back to the todayMonth textbox, it shows this error :
"Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid."
I don't know why my value in the textbox is "null" or empty . I still saw the value 11 on the textbox.
I simply want to have a user enter a number, e.g., 3.5, into a textbox and then click a button to process it. If nothing or a char or string is entered, I want to inform them to enter the number and clear the box. From a suggestion somewhere it was said to simply use validating. I thought e.handled was correct by that doesn't show up as an option. It works if the input is a number. If not, the messagebox shows and closes on OK but I can't do anything else. Any click (even to 'X' the window) anywhere brings up the messagebox. This is basically what I've tried:
