Assigning Text Colors To Individual Dropdownbox List Items?
Apr 18, 2012This is a WinForms Application in VB. In my application I am trying to make it easier for the user to pick out items in a list quickly based on the items text color.. So I am trying to assign the color to each item using a select case statement as below... The problem is that I am getting an error saying "Public member 'Attributes' on type 'String' not found." VB flags the lines with the Attribute.Add param with this error.. Here is the code that I currently have...
For Each u In _units
_counter += 1
u_lookupNumber_box.Items.Add((Convert.ToString(u.UnitId)) + " - " + (Convert.ToString(u.perMonthCost)))
[Code].....
I did notice that when I did the .attributes part when I hit "." and typed "att" it did not appear in the intelisense box in vb.. Which makes me think I need to assign the name "attributes" somehow to the dropdownbox first.. It should be noted that u_lookupNumber_box is the name of the drop down box on my form..

Changing Richtextbox Text Colors?
Dec 21, 2009It's purpose is as follows:It basically is a "check list" for installed program's, and files. I image machines on a daily basis, and me making this application will save me hours, and hours of time.The basics:My program basically has 2 forms. 1st form, will be tabbed with "clients" or, different model of PC's. Each tab will have it's own checklist. I know how to pull external files already, though, that's not my issue.Basically, when I click "check list" button, it searches for an "adobe", and "Labtech" Directory. If it exists, it will throw the result into form2.richtextbox as Adobe is installed, or Adobe is not installed. Also, Checks if the second program directory is there, and then imports the info into form2.richtextbox on a seperate line. My question is, how do I change the color of the text per line?I.e. make Adobe is installed turn GREEN, and Adobe is not installed turn RED ect.
Form2.Show()

DataGridView With Two Text Colors On The Same Line
Mar 30, 2009I am trying to find a way in VB using Visual Studio 2005 to have two different colored text on the same line of a DataGridView using the cell painting event
I am trying to accomplish the following.
ABC QRS
DCR BBL
Where all letter B's are Blue and all Letter R's are Red.
I have searched and found someone requesting the same. They had an example of how to do this on two different lines within the same cell but not on one line.
I don't understand the code well enough to make the change and several people that responded gave the code equivelant in C# instead of VB
The Code that they had was as follows:
If e.ColumnIndex = 0 AndAlso e.RowIndex > -1 Then
If e.Value IsNot Nothing Then
Dim lines As String() = e.Value.ToString().Split(ControlChars.Lf)

Set Different Text Colors In Data Table?
Mar 12, 2012I am using vb.net in my project. I have a datagridview bounded to a datatable m_table which has a column called Price_Change with decimal values. I want to display text in datagridview in green if price change>0 and red otherwise. I cannot simply use the following formatting because the bounded data table m_table is constructed in my code, not directly through data base.
DataGridView.Rows(0)Cells(0).Style.ForeColor=COLOR.BLACK
Code looks like
Dim rowText As DataRow = m_table.NewRow
rowText("Price Change")=10.00 'assign values to price change column
' there is no color formating for data table I wonder if cellformatting event can be used for this purpose. Would it slow down the load of datagridview? [URL]
VS 2008 - How To Insert Text Into Textbox Of Other Browser
Aug 4, 2009What I want to know is if there is a way to insert text into a text box on another browser using visual basic...Also if there is a way to put text only into specific fields... An example...A password memory program...What I mean by this is you have a form filled up with usernames and passwords and it will insert the correct username and password for the specified site. I guess the main thing I need to know is if it is possible to make visual basic correspond with another browser instead of using the actual WebBrowser control and a place I could go to find out how.

VS 2008 DataGridView Cell With MultiLine And Colors?
Feb 11, 2010I have a big datagridview that has a list of items, that have several states, every state has a date. My dgv will look like this:
----- Date1 | Date2 | Date3 ...
It1 |
It2 |
It3 |
The same item can have multiple states in the same date, for example: The item1 enters the factory in the date1, and leaves the factory in the same date1, what i need it's that the intersection cell, have one line with the background in green with an F (means that the item enters in the factory), and in the same cell, but in another line (multiline) in the same cell i need another F but this time with the background red (means that item leaves the factory).
The usuals columns doesn't allow me to do this, i created a simple code to use a image column and then draw a image that does what i want, but i don't like the final results and it's a little slow, and when i select the full row, i don't have the usual selected cell visual effect in this columns... I was thinking to create a datagridview column with a different type (inherited) but i don't know what column to use as base column for my column, image column and then paint the content of another control in the cell or another type?
