i want to have little idea how i can scroll text inside a multiline textbox but not by enabling its builtin scrollbar but someother custom made scroll bar. The scroll bar iam referring to has all the attributes and events of a normal scrollbar.

So with the stock Textbox, I set the Scrollbars property to Vertical. This is great if the text in my box never changes; I can scroll up and down while the box sits still. If I'm running a background operation that logs output to the box though, the scrollbar resets itself to the top every time I append text to the box.
I know I can set the Textbox.Selection property (or use the Select method) to reposition the carat in the textbox, make note of that position in a variable, then append text, reset the carat, and use the ScrollToCarat method to reposition the scrollbar where it belongs. That's a really (ridiculously) long way around. Anybody know if there's another/better way of holding the scrollbar position, short of actually building a custom control (or using a Textbox and a separate Scrollbar)? It never hurts to try. In a worst case scenario, you'll learn from it.
I have a load of information on my label in a groupbox on the form there is too much information to be seen in one go so i want to use a vertical scrollbar to move the label up and down inside the groupbox so it can be read.
The issue i'm having is:
1: The label covers the bottom edge of the groupbox (looks a little naff) i need it to fall inside the groupbox if possible.
2: Any movement on the vertical scrollbar seems to send the label in one direction only - so how do i work it so that up moves it up and down moves it down?
Should i use a multiline textbox rather than a label and move the carat?
I use this fragment code to open word file, but i want to auto move to specified position in this word document. Dim objWordApp As New Word.Application
Dim objDoc As Word.Document = objWordApp.Documents.Open("c:1.doc")
objWordApp.Visible = True Example, i have 3 pages. i want to scroll to second page
How can I make a textbox have a scrollbar that appears when the text goes off the screen so the user can scroll down as needed?
View 3 RepliesSo, I have a textbox with the following text.
Code:
TITLE"Hello there"
blah blah blah etc...
I want my program to find the TITLE text, and then put the text in the double quotations in a variable.
I have a TextBox control with a lot of text which has a vertical scrollbar, and every time I hide/show the control the position of the scrollbar stays the same. I'm trying to figure out how to change the position of the scrollbar to the top of the textbox, as if it were at the beginning of the text.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to allow scrolling in a Multiline-TextBox even if the TextBox is set to
textbox.Enabled = False
This is not possible, as the Scrollbar is disabled with the Enabled-Command, too.The default solution here is to set
textbox.ReadOnly = True
textbox.Enabled = True
but this doesn't really do the trick for me. With ReadOnly I can still select the text of a TextBox as well as place the cursor inside of it. But as I have normal (non Multiline-TextBoxes) and other controls on the same form I don't want that to happen. I want to have exactly the same behavior as all the other disabled TextBoxes.
For everything else, like mimic the color of a disabled textbox and so on, there is a legitimate workaround with the ReadOnly-Property, but I coudn't find any for selecting text and placing the cursor.
UPDATE:I tried to use WIN32 API but it didn't work as expected:
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Public Class TestTextBox

I need to set a variable upon the user scrolling to the end of the text on the textbox ("Scroll to end to accept terms") type thing but I can't seem to find how to get the value.

I have a textbox on a form which I load the contents of a text file into. The values for some of the properties are as follows:
Readonly = false
Wordwrap = false
Multiline = true
Scrollbars = Vertical
When the scrollbars is set to vertical, then I am able to make any changes to the text inside of the textbox, deleting, typing in new text, cutting and pasting, etc. However if the scrollbars is set to both, then the only thing I am able to do is delete the text. It does not allow me to type any text into the textbox. All the other settings are the same as before. How would I make the text region editable with scrollbars set to both?
I want to make section inside the textbox. For easiest example is like in IP address. There is several dot to separate it. and if we want to write 10.112.254.23 we just have to click 10 <tab> 11225423 We just have to input the number and if we haven't type three digit number we just have to click tab for go to the next section. In this case, for example I want to write :
L-1124-HW
Can we make the textbox automaticly show the minus (-) character and we just have to type L1124HW??
