VS 2005 Merge / Append Two RichTextBox's And Preserve Formatting
Jul 22, 2009
I have two RichTextBoxes, each of which can have any sort of formatting. I need to be able to take the rich text from box 2, complete with formatting, and add it to the end of box 1, preserving the formatting of both box 1 and the appended rich text.
I've not managed to find anything usefull on this anywhere apart from hints pointing to manually re-building the RTF codes for the result (but no actual VB / C# / C code to perform this or similar).
My form contains several NumericUpDown controls. These controls show different amount of decimal places. Later in my code I put the different NumericUpDown.Value's in a string array arrStr() like so:
Then I print the array with the File.WriteAllLines function to a text file. If for example NumericUpDown1.Value = 1.00, NumericUpDown2.Value = 2.30 and NumericUpDown3.Value = 2.124 the file has the following values in it:
1 2.3 2.124
[Code].....
I have tried Format which works, but that formatting method is not convenient as the amount of decimal places is already set for each NumericUpDown. It would be annoying to do the work again, but now with Format.
I've created a rich text box which stored the "textBox.Text" value in an SDF database. The storing works, but the formatting seems to be lost. Is this something that SDF databases can't handle? Do I need to store in binary or something? Not sure how to do that either.I'm using Visual Basic Express Edition with Winforms and writing in VisualBasic.NET btw This is how I store to the database:
Private Sub btnToolStripSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnToolStripSave.Click Try Me.Validate() Me.SangerBindingSource.EndEdit()
[code]....
And this is how I insert the text in to the rich textbox
txtBoxText.SelectionFont = New Font("Verdana", 16, FontStyle.Bold) txtBoxText.SelectionColor = System.Drawing.Color.RoyalBlue
I'm having some difficulty merging multiple word documents together using Microsoft Office Interop Assemblies (Office 2007) and ASP.NET 3.5. I'm able to merge the documents, but some of my formatting is missing (namely the fonts and images).
I need to set the color of the font every time I add text to the RichTextBox
I'm using. RtbResults.AppendText(DisplayPacket)
To add a new line of text, but each line needs to be a set color.I found this on the net but it doesn't seem to work in my VS11b RtbResults.AppendText(DisplayPacket,forecolor,backcolor,font)
Are these the correct overloads? can I do this another way if this doesn't work?I don't want to have to insert the text then go back and select and change its color.
I have a button that append a sentence with some strings in it to a richtextbox. Everytime I click the button it appends a new line and then appends the text again till i eventually hit the bottom and beyond of my richtextbox. how to add my line as LINE 1 in my richtextbox and moving the earlier appended text down.
Is it possible to append text into a RichTextBox1 where the cursor is? (Ex: In-putting a string from TextBox1 to RTB1 where the user has the typing cursor at.)
I have a Dynamic Fields comming from database. These fields populated on RichTextBox after changing the color.Means Different Fields in Different Color.
I've developed a MySQL chat app that I have in my program. It works perfectly, however all of the text is the same color. I use a silver-on-black scheme. I'd like to do 1 of 2 things, whichever one is.. er.. "more possible". The first option would be simple - alternate each row's back color. So that one row would be silver-on-black, the next row would be black-on-silver, and so on alternating. Each row is separated by a "vbCrLf". The second option would be to merely bold or turn to white the info text. Here's the format of the chat messages: [{time} - {user}] {message}. I would want [{time} - {user}] to be bold and white. Are either of those 2 options possible? Well, I know they're possible
I am trying to bind a RichTextBox to data from an XML file where text within a paragraph may be tagged with formatting tags. As an example the text may look like this:"The size of the area is 5000 m<superscript>2</superscript>".Text may also contain other formatting tags such as <bold> or <italic>:"The quick brown fox <bold>jumps</bold> over the <italic>lazy</italic> dog".
I have a RichTextBox. I process all the formatting and everything works fine. There is an exception. When I have selected text that have two states of formatting in it, the SelectionFont member is set to Nothing. I notice that WordPad recognizes this condition and kindof greys out the affected format.
Let's take this example: This text is in Bold. The rest of the comments here and not in bold.
When I select these two lines, the SelectionFont gets set to Nothing. WordPad sets the Bold button grey, but still clickable. If I click the Bold button in this state, the entire selection is set to bold. How do I achieve this same functionality?
i am trying to display a line of smiley faces ☻ and change the colour of each face, i cant use a find method as there are 10 of these smilies so i thought about using a loop and selecting only the last one entered and changing its colour. here is a simplified version of my
VB.Net For a = 0 to 9 RichTextBox1.Text += "☻" ' add the smiley
[code]....
This when i ran it changes the first nine to the first colour in the array and correctly does the colour of the last smiley? could i for instance format the character first then add it formatted?
I have some text displayed in a richtextbox from an xml. This is how is shows upHaste <i>(As soon as it comes under your control.)</i>At the beginning of the end step<i>The storms of the wastelands form quickly and hit hard. Few have anything to do with rain.</i>
I have an Emailer in my Application and it has a richtextbox which the user can add fancy colours, font, pics etc... but when I send the email it doesn't send it as HTML. Is there a property in the richtextbox that lets me access the HTML code so that the email is sent as HTML and not just plain text. I need to be sending the emails as it appears in the richtextbox.
I am using the following code Dim moApp As Outlook.Application Dim oEmail As Outlook.MailItem moApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") oEmail = moApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem) [Code] .....
And I get the following email Without HTML. Please look at the Emailer to see that it is formatted. So I need to send the content of the Emailer as HTML via outlook.
I have a RichTextBox with an OnChanged event. The OnChanged event should look at each line in the RichTextBox and if the line is of prime length colour it red, otherwise colour it black. How do I do this? I think it is possible to select from index a to index b and set selection colour, but I think this will lose my cursor position.
Using VB 2008, I have a form which includes a richtextbox which is bound to a database field. When i bind the datafield to the richtextbox, I get an unformatted display unlike the control in VB6. How can I bind the data from the database to the richtextbox so that it displays formatted?
I have a rich text box in one of my applications (WPF). Now I want to store the data of the rich text box along with its formatting (e.g. bold, colored etc.) into a database (SQL Server). Currently I am storing the whole XAML of the text box in a database field. however, I am not sure whether this is the right approach.
I have a richtextbox with multiple colored text in it. When I change the font, the color table is removed and everything changes to the default fore color. Anyone know of a why to preserve the color table and formatting when changing the font? I know I could build the RTF manually, but I really want to avoid that if possible.
I have a WPF RichTextBox which contain in its FlowDocument both text and images. I need to iterate through the text's words (those which builds the text which the user see on the screen) and change their content and formatting. For instance, change the word "room" to the word "home", applying to the last a red color.
I need to change words whether they are formatted or unformatted.For instance, if a word is in Italic, colored, or just regular black text, it makes no difference for me.Each word will be replaced with one which have about identical length, so I don't want that this operation will effect the general page layout. All images and other objects should remain at their positions.It is preferred that the process of this operation will not be visible to the user. Only its result should be visible (i.e, no visible selections of text).If this operation can be done either directly on the FlowDocumet or with properties/methods of the RichTextBox, the simple one is preferred (but exmaples for both will be ideal).
I am still working with the itextsharp library. I have created a pdf template through livecycle design and saved as the pdf form not the pdf that runs from the xml form. I was wondering if there was a way to append some column text at the end of that template. right now i have the filestream setup to append but it keeps overwriting the pdf and i wasn't sure if this was because it
Dim Names() As String = {"Bob", "Bill", "Jim"} Dim AllNames As String For Each Name As String In Names AllNames &= Names & " " Next Operator '&' is not defined for types '1-dimensional array of String' and 'String'
I guess I'm not trying to store each item in the string array correctly. How would I do this?
I have worked out all the other bugs in my Staffing app. A while back .paul helped me with exporting my data to excel. So what I need to do now is this:
Schedule AM RN's and export to excel DONE Schedule PM RN's and export to excel appending to existing worksheet Schedule AM NT's and export to excel appending to existing worksheet Schedule PM NT's and export to excel appending to existing worksheet Schedule AM WC's and export to excel appending to existing worksheet Schedule PM WC's and export to excel appending to existing worksheet
I only need 1 workbook, and each new full schedule will be a new worksheet with the beginning date/ending date as the worksheet name.
I am writing a program that will read and write to a file using the My.Computer.Filesystem namespace, and when I append my data file with the code shown below under SaveFile subroutine, it sometimes places extra ControlChars.Newline at the end of the appended text. Sometimes it places one extra newline, and sometimes it adds 3-6 newlines. I have tried everything I can think of to make it add just one newline at the end of each append, as I will be using the newline char to flag each entry on retrieval. I am working out some algorithms in this project to use in a project that will keep track of data in a file using csv format(just practicing saving/retrieving data from a file). The extra newline characters that are added will become a problem when I start to sort the data to display. my xSaveButton click event:
Private Sub xSaveButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles xSaveButton.Click Dim boolAppendData As Boolean If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("myData.dat") = True Then
Has anyone tried merging multiple HTML Files to single HTML File ? am in confusion whether we need to treat HTML files as an ordinary text and and to append text or is there anyother way..
I'm trying to develop a Mail Merge using Bookmarks in a word template (1 page doc). It works ok for the 1st record from a datatable (source of data for bookmarks), and then just piles the other records into the same bookmarks. After the 1st insertion I need the code to goto the end of the doc, insert a page break and append a fresh copy of the template for the next insertion. The mail merge could have many 1 page letters in it.
strTemplateDir = Trim(txtDocument.Text) wrdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application") wrdApp.documents.add(strTemplateDir) 'open new word doc based on template 'make it the active doc
