I am making a project, a database project using vb.net 2005 at front end ans sql server 2005 at back end. i have to validate my form, like for sTUDENT ID, only numbers are acceptable. that what is the way to validate it? the way which i have used is
i created a validation procedure on a textbox_validating event. the procedure goes something like [Code] but somehow it doesn't stop the system from continuing. what happens is on my Save Button where i have. [Code] i'm assuming that when i click the save button, the Textbox1_Validating event is also fired since it also brings up the MessageBox. but then after pressing OK on the MessageBox, it continues to try and Update the DataTable where I get an error from the database saying that the Column does not allow null values.
also when i click Save Button, i noticed that the Textbox1_Validating Event is only fired when the cursor is on that item. basing from this, it seems that the not all Validating Events are fired when an Adapter.Update is executed. what's the best way to validate items? should it be on the Save Button and not on the Validating event of each items?
I started editing an existing code (basicaly to learn vb) without any real previous experience. Well let's get to the point;I have a form that gathers data from db ordering by user ID (on click count).I have one DataGridView with a list of user,some have data in db, some have not. I came so far that if I CLICK on a user that have data, all data is dissplayed in 6 dinamyc textboxes.If user has no data inly first (emty) row with 6 dinamyc textboxes is created.
BUT THE POINT IS (my question to you) - I have a button that simultaneously adds a row of dinamyc textboxes bellow and multiplyies textbox04 (name is clickcount & 4) and textbox05 and displays the result in textbox06.I want to add a messagebox that shows if textbox04 & 05 are empty and in that case exits sub. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click 'Reset warnings[code].......
excuse this thread if email ids doesn't exists other than in english language)before posting i have searched for the solution , but most of the solutions uses regular expression to validate the format of the email id.
I have a question about how to validate a text box with only word inside. Below is my code i use, it's only can detect if number 1 to 9 in single number, but not 11 or 999 or Joanne11 Joa223nne etc. I want it can detect the text box have and number or symbol then will show an error messageBox, else continue.
I'm doing a programming course at college, and I'm making a simple program that finds the mean of three numbers. Making the basic program was easy, but I can't work out how to validate the text boxes so that they only accept numbers. I've Googled, but I haven't been able to find anything. I have a look on the forums here but couldn't find anything either.
this is my code in VB.NET 2008 and it works as the result, i can input starts from 1.00 until 99.99
but i need more than this i want the textbox automatic validate the input as i typed in the textbox
example: i typed "1000" then the textbox will write "1,000" example: i typed "10000.99" then the textbox will write "10,000.99" nb: it has to disabled from typing ","
I have been searching for an easier way to validate the text property of my combobox.
Below is a background of what I am try to accomplish:
I have a from that contains many controls, mainly comboboxes that are bound to datatables. I have these set up in such a fashion as to when the user begins to type, the values begin to show and auto populate the combobox. This makes the selection process easier to select an actual value in the list. But, as we all know, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Users still have the ability to type something that is not in the list. I do not want to allow them to leave the combobox until the have selected or typed a valid value from the list because I am building a SQL query to retrieve data for a later form. I don't want to lose the above mentioned functionality of being able to type it in. I currently have it working as follows, but there must be a more elegant way to do this.
I first populate my combo box like so:
CODE:
The part I don't like the most is that I feel like I should be able to use the list already loaded in the combobox data, but I can't figure out how to do it. So I end up having to reload it, this seem like a waste of time.
I am new to Win Forms, I have a scenario here..When User enter ID in a textbox, I want to check that value in database and get the name for that ID before submitting the Submit Button.
I have designed a form with textboxes for numerical entry. I need to validate each textbox so the number entered is an integer, and is between 0-1000. I am struggling to find how to validate the data entry.
Private Sub TextBoxHandlers() For Each c As Control In Me.Controls If TypeOf c Is TextBox Then AddHandler c.DataBindings(0).Parse, AddressOf Textbox_Validate End If [Code] .....
I think I'm close but how do you get what the text box is bound to? I'm trying to loop through all my textboxes and add a handler that on validation will insert a null if it equals string.empty. How to set the property manager by sending it the appropriate Binding context. I know that this code will not find textboxes in panels or ones that are on other controls, that's fine, for now. I'm also not sure how it will handle controls that are bound to different datasets.
I am trying to implement the following code to validate several textboxes The problem i cant figure out is once i get in an offending textbox and input the data i cant get out of it? I know i am probaly missing something simple but I can't seem to find it

We have an application that has a main form with a map on it. Right now the paradigm is to have forms that are displayed using menu items to display information to the user. Most of these forms are modal forms, but a couple are non-modal forms that interact with the map. For some of the forms, it really would make for a better user experience if we could dock them in the main form of the app and allow the user to see both the form and the map. For instance. We could have a list of map features in a docked window, and select one of the items on the list and have the map zoom to that feature. Or do the reverse: let the users select a map item and have a docked window that shows details of the feature. Sounds great, but I wonder about what sort of gotchas we may encounter. In particular, what if we have two windows docked at the same time? Could we get tangled up in our event code?
In v2003 setting the form property 'ShowInTaskbar' to FALSE would hide the form from the task bar but also hide the form if I did a 'ALT-TAB'. This is not the case in v2005. WHY and how can I hide the form for 'ALT-TAB'. The form has to be border-less.
I have an .exe project with a form in it that I want to use as a base class for other forms in the project. So I try to add a new inherited form to the project, but it says "Warning: No build assemblies contain components to inherit from. Build the current application, or click Browse and select a previously built assembly from another application". My base class is declared public and my exe has been built. I don't understand. Can you only do form inheritance in a dll?

I have a button on form 1. When the button is clicked, form 2 pops up. Form 2 also has a button.
Code for form 1: Imports System.IO Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim textfile As New FileStream("textfile1.txt", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite) Dim txtfilewriter As New StreamWriter(textfile) [Code] .....
Now, as you see, on the form 1 load event, the streamwriter writes "Physics" to the text file. When the button on form 2 is clicked, the streamwriter writes "English" to the same file. As an end result, I expected BOTH "Physics" and "English" to be in the text file but the final result is only "English" in the text file. What do I have to do so that the textfile continuously stores these lines?
I am developing a windows based application in VS2005. I want all my form to be inherits from one of my class e.g.ParentClass but indeed the windows forms already inherits windows.forms.form class. what I have tried is that, I inherit "windows.forms.form" in "ParentClass" and all forms inherits my "ParentClass". But in this case when I view the design of the form IDE gives error.
I have a main form when loaded will display a login form. I want that when the main from loads, the login form and another form will be loaded side by side.How do I show two modal forms?
I was working on one of my forms, not doing anything crazy or out of the ordinary, just adding a control to the form. When all of a sudden vb became real sluggish and barely responsive, so I closed VS and restarted the computer. Got back into my project and now I can't open any form. Opening a form gives me <b>failed to parse method 'InitializeComponent'. The parser reported the following error 'Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.'. Please look in the task lisk for potential errors.</b>.Error list sometimes contains 102 errors, and sometime just one that says I have exceeded the maximum number of errors. When it contains 102, every single one of the errors is <b> [Object/Form] is ambiguous in the namespace [Project] </b>.
I can't open any designers right now, every single one of them gives the failed to parse method error. If I rename, lets say frmAbout to frmAbout1, then I can see that form.There is only one of everything in Solution Explorer, no duplicates. There are no duplicates in the folder either. I can open the code for each form/object and see it just fine, and looks fine too. Code is not duplicated or anything.

I make a program upon sending emails to my friends using smtp. The problem is that I have confusions why my another form will not show until it is not finished sending all of the messages. I want my next form to show how many percent were finished but the problem is that my form will show only until all the emails are sent on my listbox. I put my code on the load event of the for
I was wondering if anyone has code available that would check for spelling using VB Forms? I work in an environment that has Office 2007 installed. I'm currently using some code that works, but leaves a bunch of WINWORD.EXE process open (one for each field I'm spell checking).
I have noticed in my applications that if I open several forms, one after the other, I end up with a load of icons at the bottom of the screen where the Start button is. Is there a way to group these so the main one only shows?
