I've been struggling with something I imagined would be simple. My aim is to create a TextBox or Label with in a GroupBox using VB.net, yes I could use the Toolbox/Common Controls to do this easily, but it's a pain when planning on making more than just one or two of them
Here's my current coding to create the actual text box.

All that works perfectly, but how would I allow it to show up within a GroupBox?
way to highlight groupbox or label when clicked?? way to show selection of a thumbnail(one out of five images) when clicked....
View 3 RepliesI would like to use code to create a checkbox with default properties and place it at a certain position in a groupbox. For example, i would like to do this by pressing a button and that i can give in the name and tag by use of an imputbox. Also, i have noticed that if something like this is done, these changes aren't permanent and don't apply to the designer nor the code in VB. Is there a way to let the newly created checkboxes appear in the designer? And what about permanently deleting checkboxes by pressing a button. With "Dispose()" it isn't deleted from the designer...

is its possible to have a link/button inside a textbox or label... or other term for that...for example.. i am populating some chapters in a book... then i would only display 250 chars from each chapter... then i would end it and add a "Read More" text in each chapter.. and when they click it.. i would populate the whole chapter of selected chapter in the textbox...
View 8 RepliesI have it so that for each entry node in the XML file, it creates a new label then it creates a textbox under it. Both are added to a Collection so I can reference and delete them later. The label and textbox are set inside a panel container. I'm planning to make changes to the interface.
View 3 RepliesI have a groupbox with a number of textboxes. I want to loop through all the textboxes, get their value( text) and add them all together and show it in a final totaltextbox outside the groupbox. This is what i have done but it does not work. The totaltextbox values do not change. Here is my code :
Private Sub AGroupBox_VisibleChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AGroupBox.VisibleChanged
Dim xxx As Integer
Dim tota, ax As Integer

I created a groupbox and then populate it with buttons during runtime. I also created a button, say Button1 to loop through the groupbox and delete those buttons.[code]...
View 2 RepliesIm working on a lay-away form application, this particular part is part of the even where the user adds a new customer, and has come to the section for adding personal references to the customers account. What Im trying to do is to check all the text boxes inside the GroupBox control, and then add all the tags of the text boxes that are empty to the list. If the list holds any records it will be put into a message box to let the user know he missed this value. But I want them to list in one text box. Here is what I've tried:[code...]
I get a conversion error, Cannot convert Prompt to String.
I updated a VS2008 vb.net application to VS2010 targeting the .Net 3.5 framework. This application has a windows form that contains a tab control. This tab control contains 6 tab pages. The tab control's tab pages contain group boxes. The group boxes have their anchor property set to Top, Bottom, Left and Right. The tab control's anchor property is also set to Top, Bottom, Left and Right.
When I open this form in VS2010 and resize the form, the tab control is automatically resized. The group boxes inside each tab page appear to automatically resize. If I close the form and immediately reopen it and click through each tab page; the first tab page's group box is resized, but each of the other tab pages's group box has not been resized.
I reported this issue through Microsoft Connect - [URL]. This worked in VS2003, VS2005, VS2008 but was broken in VS2010. I really want the behavior that existed in the previous versions of visual studio. Right now, I have to manually resize each individual group box every time I bring up the form in the designer.
I have several textboxes in a winform, some of them are inside a groupbox. I tried to loop over all textboxes in my form:
For Each c As Control In Me.Controls
If c.GetType Is GetType(TextBox) Then

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?
Is there a way to select multiple radio buttons within a groupbox. I have a case where I need to disable the mutually exclusive feature.

View 9 RepliesSo I'm making a program that has a few selections from a ListBox, and when one is selected, it will clear/load items on a groupbox. However, when I add a label, it will only display the first 2 or 3 words.Here is the code I use to add a simple lable, that doesn't work:
If (ListBox1.Text.Equals("Mode")) Then
RichTextBox1.Text = notes
GroupBox1.Controls.Clear()
[code].....
I am making an application that is designed to restore the settings for another application of mine. It so far contains 1 Label, 1 GroupBox and 4 CheckBoxes. The code I am making is designed so that when CheckBox1 is checked, CheckBox3 is enabled, and vice versa.
That does work, with this code in CheckBox1_CheckedChanged:
If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
CheckBox3.Enabled = True
Else
CheckBox3.Enabled = False
End If
As I said, this code works exactly as intended. However, when I try to do the same with CheckBox2 and CheckBox4, using the following code in CheckBox2_CheckedChanged:
If CheckBox2.Enabled = True Then
CheckBox4.Enabled = True
Else
CheckBox4.Enabled = False
End If
It is the same code, basically, the problem is though, when I check CheckBox2, then CheckBox4 will enable, but when I remove the check from CheckBox2, CheckBox4 will remain enabled. [URL]
I am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.

View 1 RepliesI have created a User Control (UC) where user type the information it needed and save it ti MS SQL Database and also have created a User Control dedicated for it's button, since my main form has split container and has two panels, one for UC which contain the button only and the other one for my Main UC where user enter the information.I created a Module that contain the function on adding the data type in UC Main to the database.
[Code]...
on My UCButton named "Save" I just call the function AddUserInformation. But the problem is the variable where it bind to the ucUserControlMain textbox remains Blank, When i query the my database table, only the UserInforID and the DateAdded has been updated and the other column remains blank where the variable get it in the UCMain Textbox...
I have a situation where I have a label and a textbox that display a time.The database field is set as datetime the label data binding is set to custom HH:mm the textbox data binding is set to custom HH:mm and masked with __:__ Military time HH:mm wants to display as 07/09/2010 in the label and 09:20 on the textbox But it is still wanting to display the date.
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to evade the problem of being unable to have a transparent textbox by using a label. When the label is selected, it selects the info in a textbox elsewhere. Then using Textbox.changed, i stream the text to the label. Maybe the code will make sense:
Private Sub UserLabelClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles UserLabel.Click
UserTB.SelectAll()
End Sub
[code]....
But the text is not selected and therefore cannot be changed.
Does anyone know how to make label1 show the data in textbox1? I simply can't figure it out.Value of type 'System.Windows.Forms.TextBox' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.Label'.
