I have a form thats an invoice generator. You type numbers into the text box and it displays totals in the listbox at the bottom. I was trying to make it so that as you typed into the textbox it would update the listbox.
Private Sub txtWBQuantity_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtWBQuantity.KeyPress
'This section makes it so that you can not type a letter into the txtWBQuantity textbox
[Code]....
It works kind of, after I hit the next key it calculates the total of the first number I typed then writes the next number, how can I make it calculate the total after I hit the key?
Alright, let's try this again. I have an mdb file as a database in my program, I need this mdb file to be what my published program reads off of. Is there any way to have Visual Basic (2008 Express) not encode my mdb file to Example.mdb.deploy?
I use the following code to read the standard output from a command line application from a main winforms application, and then I use the BeginInvoke code to update a textbox with the status. What I am not sure about is if I can have a smoother process. The code loads up about 10 to 20 text inserts, and those are all seen at once... not a smooth process where each status is updated. Any thoughts on if the reading of the standard output and/or the beginvoke code could seem more smooth to the user?
Delegate Sub UpdateUIStatusHandler(ByVal StatusMessage As String, ByVal JobName As String, ByVal Direction As String) Dim ProcessJob As New ProcessStartInfo(GSyncExe, RunJob) ProcessJob.UseShellExecute = False : ProcessJob.CreateNoWindow = True : ProcessJob.RedirectStandardOutput = True : ProcessJob.RedirectStandardError
I am trying to do implement an autocomplete textbox in my application and I have a question about keypress event inside an autocomplete textbox. I have 2 textbox namely textbox1 and textbox2. Suppose to be, when the user pressed the RETURN / ENTER key, it will focus on textbox2. how come that on this event is not triggering.
Code: Private Sub frmCheck_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load 'set autocomplete mode in textbox1 TextBox1.AutoCompleteMode = AutoCompleteMode.SuggestAppend TextBox1.AutoCompleteSource = AutoCompleteSource.CustomSource [Code] .....
Also, I would like to ask if how to validate the input if the value from the textbox matches from the autocomplete values. How can I compare the values of the textbox and the autocomplete source?
anyone know how to invoke the KeyPress event ? This code shows what I would like to do, but it simply calls the eventhandler and does not insert the text into the text box, so is not what I want/need.
i want to search data according to textbox i want to write a code in eventstextbox1_keypress whenever you write a word L in textbox so the dgview row select the row where the row starts with L and after that i press I so the select dgview row whrer
I know you can validate textbox text by using the keypress events. But the form i'm working on has multiple groupboxes with multiple textboxes. So rather than having a sub routine to validate every groupbox, i was wanting to have just the one keypress event that handles the textbox entries, and depending on the textbox calls a specific validation routine.[code]
I have to create a textbox and a label component. The textbox object will have to behave under the following conditions: 1. It will only accept letters and the ENTER key as input. 2. As an extension of condition #1, a message will appear whenever an invalid key is pressed
i know this has to be simple but i can find anything anywhere tonight on how to check if while a textbox has focus if the ctrl+v or ctrl+c was pressed i simply need to use it like such:[code]
Private Sub prices_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles wholeprice_input_new_item.KeyPress, dozenprice_input_new_item.KeyPress, detailprice_input_new_item.KeyPress, costprice_input_new_item.KeyPress
[code]....
I want to validate all the characters. How I can make the event keypress validate all characters in a text box?
I have a TextBox which Is allowed only to read certain characters. I use KeyPress event to handle this event. I understand that The KeyPress event does not handle the pressing of the DELETE key on the keyboard. I do not want the user to be able to delete characters in the txtbox by using the DELETE key, I want the user only to be able to use the backspace key. I am writing this code in Visual Basic 2005. The following code appears to work in handling the DELETE key, but I am concerned that I might get bitten by the fact that I am using KeyDown and KeyPress on the same control (txtSource).
private sub txtSource_KeyDown(byval sender as object, byval e as KeyEventArgs) handles txtSource.KeyDown IF e.KeyData = System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Delete then e.handled=true end if end sub
move the focus to the next TextBox (don't worry about the Case 38, 58 etc too much I).
My Code: Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load '(Unrelated code here) AddHandler Form1.KeyDown, AddressOf EnterkeyHandler 'Would like to understand this better
I have the below code on the KeyPress event of a textbox howver a need has now come in meaning I have to do myTextbox.Text = "A input string"
Private Sub ChequeAmountKeyPress(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtChequeAmount.KeyPress Dim tb As TextBox = sender If (e.KeyChar = "." AndAlso tb.Text.Length = 0) Then e.Handled = True
[Code]...
This input string could contain a format that I do not want and whilst the keypress event caters for the need when the user is typing I need to handle it in the case of a text assignment.I thought firing the keypress event after I assigned the text property but I dont think that will offer what I want.
I have two issues. The first is that I want to make a textbox scrolling similar to how credits scroll. I don't want it to move on the form, just to scrolling the text down a line/pixel. I thought I could do it with the "Lines" element, but I'm not exactly sure how to execute it.
The other problem is with my flash screen. Right now I have it set so when a button is click, it goes onto the main form. I don't want to use the button but rather have it so if Enter is pressed at any time, it'll go to the main form. All the solutions I've tried to use involve the "e.Keycode" code, but for some reason its unavailable.
I have several multi-line textboxes that I want to lose focus (i.e. when the user presses the right arrow key) but the control wil not relinquish the focus.Simply put, I first verify if the selection start is at the end of the text, if it is, and the user presses the arrow key, it should move to the next textbox. some debug.print code placed in strategic locations indicates that the target textbox gets focus and immediately loses it and the source textbox gains focus once again. Essentially not allowing the textbox to lose focus.
Select Case Case Keys.Right tbRight.Focus()
[code]....
After changing the source textbox multi-line property to false, it behaves as expected. Is this a "feature" .. surely I don't have to resort to "SendKeys"
I have a simple question regarding the KeyPress event. I'm trying to make it to where my TextBox on my form can only accept numbers 0-9, backspace and '.' /without quotes. I've successfully got it to accept numbers 0-9, accept backspace, I'm just wondering - what line do I add so that it can accept periods as well?
Here's my

I have a text box called TxtSearch on my form. The value entered should always be numeric before the search can be done if its any other data type the following Message box is give - Only a numeric value is allowed in this field", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "GCPM.. (Code shown below)
Private Sub TxtSearch_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TxtSearch.KeyPress If Char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) = False And Char.IsControl(e.KeyChar) = False Then[code].....
Now, when you copy and paste a String value on the textbox - TxtSearch the KeyPress doesn't work. The TxtSearch doesn't prompt the message and when you click the Search Button the application crashes - dsiplaying an error converting data type varchar to numeric.. What I want to do is if someone uses the copy and paste tool to enter the value in the textbox- TXTSearch and there is a datatype not numeric the message prompt is called ..

I'm working on an application with 4 combo-box's, "go" and "quit" buttons, and a Multi-Line textbox.The combo-box's are prefilled with options for the user to select and I'd like all of the output to come up in the textbox. We are making a data set opossible output responses; it's going to be somewhat of an exhaustive list.When doing the output to the text box using textbox.text = (whatever), is there a way to have more than one line of output displayed in the textbox? I was trying multiple lines of textbox.text =, but only the newest bit of textbox.text = is displayed.

So I'm attempting to get three variable to print in a string, but I can't figure out how to make the Concat or Join commands to work properly. I've tried assigning the strings to a defined string variable and then "concatting" that and trying to do it in one big line. I keep getting an error either way. Here's what I have so far:
