VS 2008 Annoying In Text Formatting?
Jun 4, 2009
So i wrote a script which does a few things and richtextbox2 is updated as follows:
a = 27,130,000,000
b = 2,930,000,000
c = 4,290,000,000
Problem is, when i copy the contents of richtextbox2 to the clipboard using "clipboard.settext(richtextbox2.text)" and then open up note page, and paste the clipboard contents, it is wrapped wrongly and i get the following in note pad:"a = 27,130,000,000 b = 2,930,000,000 c = 4,290,000,000"
I am using "system.envoronment.newline" in my code to start a new line.

I am currently trying to save a piece of data extracted from a piece of hardware in my office and save it as a text file. The problem now is, the text file saves the data like this:
[code].....
There are 3 buttons and 5 textboxes in my program. ignore the "plot" button as that is a machine specific code, as well as any weird lines like
Dim mgr As Ivi.Visa.Interop.ResourceManager
as these were provided by my machine vendor. I only need help with the data formatting.I am trying to program the "Agilent 8757D Scalar Network Analyzer.

if this is not the right area to be posting this. I couldn't find an area dedicated to discussion about IDE features.Somehow one of my .vb files is not showing the nice formatting that is default in VS2008, such as the text colors, etc. how I can get this back? I don't know what to search for, as I don't know what its actually called. On the left you see what I want, and on the right you see what I have right now.

I'm working on my very first VB 2008 Express program, having a little bit of experience with VB 6.For my first VB 2008 program, I'm starting out simple. I have two text boxes, named Title and Director.You input text into each text box.I also have a button named GENERATE, which generates a text file named c.est.txt and stores the text box material.[cod]I know how to do this with VB 6, but not with VB 2008, and my research hasn't come up with an explanation of how to format this correctly.So how do I revise this code so that there is a line for each text box string, how do I get rid of the System.Windows.Forms.TextBox stuff and replace it with my own headers, and how do I double-space between lines?

I have this timer system set up so that every 2 seconds a new line of code is added to my RichTextBox. The problem is, when the box fills up the scrollbar doesn't automatically go down. Every time a new line is added by the program, the user has to scroll down manually to see it. I would think there would be a simple solution to this, but I'm a VB n00b,

I am writing an array in a file with this loop.
sw.WriteLine("attributes")
For i = 0 To noatts - 1
sw.WriteLine(attName(i))
Next
This is creating weird results though.

Anyone know why could that be? In other parts of the file writeline works well. It only creates extra lines on that specific section. Btw: the file looks good if viewing by notepad, the extra lines appear when viewing in wordpad. Apparently that matters because when I reuse that file to read some values in my program, it crashes cause it reads those empty lines instead of the attributes.

The sample below does what I want it to do and that is once I've filled the maskedtextbox and press enter it goes and does stuff. However, because the maskedtextbox is full I get an annoying 'beep'. So I figured I'd just use the tab key, I changed theChrW(Keys.Return) to ChrW(Keys.Tab) but it doesn't fall through, it just changes focus to the next maskedtextbox that I have. Is there a way to lose the beep? Or how do I get the tab key to fall through?

When I am editing VB code inside a .aspx file in Visual Studio 2010, my code is automatically indented in a bizarre way. I have searched through the options and can't find anything that fixes this. [I thought unchecking Pretty listing (reformatting) of code in Text Editor -> Basic -> VB Specific would for sure do the trick but it didn't]Example -- here is the beginning of a .aspx page:
<%@ Page EnableSessionState="True" Language="VB" Strict="true" %>
<script language="VB" runat="Server">
Dim foo As String
If I go to the end of the "Dim foo" line and hit it will indent. If I fix the indentation, the next line will do the same thing.

I am using Visual Basic 2008. However, the Report a Bug function does not work, which in itself is a major bug.While I am typing in the code editor, these annoying popups keep popping up and completely blocking my view of the code. I have no idea what these popups are showing and do not need them. I have not been able to find any way of turning them off. I consider this another major bug.

I'm try to come up with a way for a user to enter a date and time into a textbox and for that value to be saved as a datetime variable back into a database. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a clever way to restrict what values a the user can enter so that the datetime datatype isn't corrupted. I've been playing around with the date time picker but I cannot seem to get that to work for me. I'd like the user to either pick the date and time from a picker and save that into a variable. Or I've seen applications where the textbox will automatically have a formatting type of template that makes it hard for the user to enter an invalid date and time.

I have some WORD files, which are formatted using bold, italic and colors etc. I want to copy entire content of word file into SQL Server table using Visual Basic.NET.I have a RichTextBox on my form and used datatype nvarchar(max) to store Unicode Hindi data. Everything is working fine... data insert and retrieve is OK, but formatting is GONE.
Below is the code to insert.
cmd.CommandText = "Update tbl_Camps SET CampName = '" & StrConv(Trim(txtCampName.Text), VbStrConv.ProperCase) & "', CampVenue = '" & StrConv(Trim(txtCampVenue.Text), VbStrConv.ProperCase) & "', CityID = '" & cboCity.SelectedValue & "', FromDate = '" & Format(dtpFromDate.Value.Date, "dd-MMM-yyyy") & "', ToDate = '" & Format(dtpToDate.Value.Date, "dd-MMM-yyyy") & "', LiveDVpkt = '" & txtDVpkt.Text & "', <strong>CampNotes = N'" & rtbCampNotes.Text & "'</strong> Where CampID = '" & frmMain.lblCampID.Text & "'"

I'm reading in values from an array of arbitrary size into a text box. Easy enough. However, in my application, certain values of the data are unusable and I'd like to give a visual warning to the user when this occurs. Whenever the data
is either negative or greater than 10, I'd like to display that value in red. How can I do this with a RTB?

ok so i got this program it populates a 20 bound two dimensional array with random number, the first column shows the numbers in random order, the second column in ascending order, the third column in descending order, it all seems to work fine except when i get a random number that is 7 digits or less, it throws my formatting off making some of the numbers appear crunched into the left column
here is a picture of the output:

But I need in the program to load the text into designated columns for the listview by placing the text in the columns using the symbols as start and finish points for the information to be loaded line by line. I'm just not entriely sure how to do that.[code]

I want to know in a program idea I am working on to use at my job I have several text boxes that are used to store decimal values to represent measurements (weights & lengths) and I was wondering is there a way that when program first run the text field is populated with a default value (eg. 0.00) or if the user deletes all text in the control and hits enter or tabs to another control it sets value to same default value

I've made a user control (http:url.....)I'm trying to format the text based on the data type e.g.:
Date
Numeric - 2 Decimals
Numeric - 0 Decimals
String
Now, I've added a property so that the user can decide at design time, what format he wants for the textbox. I've also made the options an enum. And then the coding in a sub. But not sure what I have to do with the sub.When I put it in the TextChanged event, then I get the weirdest behaviour from it.LIke when I typed in 1234 on Numeric0Decimals, after I typed 4, the cursor jumped to the first position of the textbox...On type Date, I just type in 2009/08 and then again it just jumps to the front and set the text to 01/08/2009 .So obviously can't place the sub in the textchanged event...
Private msTextConversion As TextConversionOptions
Enum TextConversionOptions
DateType[code]....
I'll obviously still change my sub to make sure that the text entered is numeric,or string, or valid date etc. Just didn't get around that part yet.

Are there standard controls for formatting, which I can add to the form or the toolbar? I mean font selector, text size selector, bold button, and so on. OR do I have to create them myself. If they are standard,l how do I add them? I can't find any such thing in the toolbox.

So I'm using a plain TextBox to display output from an ongoing background process. I've created a 'report string' that displays in my textbox like it has 3 columns; there's a VariableName, a VariableValue, and a VariableEffect (showing how applying that variable to the process affected it).In my textbox, any VariableValue entry that has 17 or greater characters gets 1 tabstop between Value and Effect; any entry 16 or less gets 2 tabstops, and any value 7 or less gets 3 tabstops which very neatly lines up the 3 columns.
