How to highlight multi lines in Rich Textbox and know which lines are highlighted?
View 8 RepliesI'm working on a program that inputs a text box text into a RichTextBox via a button click. But when I click a button, it over writes the text that is already in the RichTextBox. How can I prevent this?

how to count the lines in textbox1.text (with multiplelines). I don't need to count each character. I only need to count each line from top to bottom in textbox1.text (multiplelines) and I will use Label1 to display the numbers.
example:
1-pauljaones
2-tommyperrry
3-marktoms
4-Jonessmith
5-paulwhite
Obviously this is 5 lines and that's what I need to count.
I am working on a way to determine if the lines of a RichTextBox have changed.I currently use this
Dim newhash As Integer = Me.Text.GetHashCode
If newhash <> Me._prevhash Then
Me._prevhash = newhash
Me._lines = MyBase.Lines
[code]....
But this method has a bad issue: The text property takes a while to "load up" plus getting its hash code adds to it. This code runs every time the Lines are needed (it is a property). So this
For i As Integer = 0 To Lines.Count - 1
Dim line As String = Lines(i)
Next
Takes ages to complete, because for every line it checks if the lines have changed.I am trying to evade using MyBase.Lines too much, since that REALLY takes ages to load.
- I can not use the modified property since it is unreliable (set to true if only a text color changes)
- Can't use the RTF since it changes without the text changing (coloring) and the hash code is slow as well.
- Can't use the TextChanged event, since it is sent after the SelectionChanged event (for some reason)
I've been looking all over and i can't find an answer to this syntax problem. I want to show a message box with multiple lines before the buttons. This is my latest try:[code]How do you do this? Also, is there a way to have text AFTER the buttons?
View 12 RepliesI need to be able to search through a text file and find a line of text, then delete that line and the 7 previous lines and also the line following the searched line. Basically the program creates student records to a text file and asks if the user wants to mark the record for deletion then when the user exits the program, I want it to find the records mark for deletion and delete them.The records in the text file look like this:
Name: Some, Students, Name
Age: 20
Phone Number: (555) 555-5555

Sorry if this seems like I haven't searched, however I have. Maybe I'm not understanding something or maybe I just haven't found what I need. Anyway my question is this. How would I find multiple strings in a text file and replace them? So far I've been able to find out how to replace a single string with:
[Code]...
I have a *.txt file which contains instructions and data, with its own comments (preceded by ! ), blank lines, and each instruction begining on a new line, but occassionally using two lines. Each instruction consists of several feilds seperated by a TAB. Finally each instruction ends in a comma. Only a few different instructions are there (10 different ones) but there are many of each. Spanning a good 2500 lines. Comments and blank lines are obviously of no interest to me. I merely need to read the instructions and the data that follows it.
Now, I have successfully used 'System.IO.StreamReader.ReadLine' to go through it line by line, picking out lines begining with certain strings (first 3 characters of a known instruction). All good, I can 'lift' out the lines of interest and store them, for them to be split up later (seperating their fields into instruction, data, etc..) and then into an array.
The problem is, since some of the data fields in these instructions are so long, it spans two lines, before it ends with a comma. Using the above method, I end up with two array entries for a single instruction, since I have stored individual lines rather than a complete instruction. The only similar situation I can tihnk of to explain this, is to pick out sentences in text, and store each one in a string. Of course these end with a period (full stop) but span two or more lines.
I am hesitant to post an example, since its formatting is rather strange, but it is generated that way from 3rd party software, so I cannot change that for my software application.Perhaps there is no 'graceful' way of doing this, meaning I would have to find a way of 'adding' the second line of the instruction, to the string of the first line. Or perhaps reading each line character by character, literally storing every number/letter until I reach a comma.

View 1 RepliesI have a richtextbox, and I want to highlight the lines in groups of ten, alternating colours every ten lines.
I know I need to use:
Dim lineindex As Integer = Me.RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(index)
Dim first As Integer = Me.RichTextBox1.GetFirstCharIndexFromLine(lineindex)
Me.RichTextBox1.Select(first, xxxx)
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectionBackColor = Color.Red
However I'm not sure what to put in Select to get it to select the whole line, and I'm not sure how to get it to change colour every ten lines (to yellow)
How can I get the sum from richtextbox, starting at line -1 ? But the first line should compare with line1.This code adds a constant to all lines and passes the sum to another textbox.
Dim num1 As Single
Dim sum As Single
Dim Constant As Single = Val(txtLowerTol.Text[code]....
So a third textbox should sum with one line "offset".

I have a Richtextbox.Text in my project and I need to save all text lines into a ListBox.Text .
View 6 RepliesI have a richtextbox, with random values in each line:
a1,a2,a3
b1,b2,b3
and so on.
This textbox stores the values in a jagged array after lostfocus. What i am trying to do, is for the user to have the ability to 'switch' values in each line if he wishes to do so. Each switched element becomes the first, and the first goes where the old value was. So it's basically a 'swap'. For example:Line1: a1,a2,a3 --> user highlights "a3", right clicks and a contextmenustrip appears with the option 'switch', once he clicks a3 goes where a1 was and a1 goes to a3. So the new Line1 would be: a3,a2,a1. After that if he switches a2, new Line1 would be: a2,a3,a1 Once the switch is done in the array, redisplaying the data in the RTB is not a prob.
I want to draw string in multiple lines and and I want to know how many lines given string will take. I am using following method.
[Code]...
Using this [URL] to retrieve both address and place name at the same time ("//span[@class='listingTitle']|//div[@class='address']/text()[normalize-space(.)]"), I can get a list of placenames and addresses like this in a richtextbox:
jh ryder machinery limited
convenience storage ltd 3344 rideau
rd, gloucester, on, k1g3n4
kitchen interiors 146 colonnade rd,
nepean, on, k2e7y1
The first line is bad, it doesnt have an address. Line 2 and 4 are good, they have addresses. So what I could do is:Check each line,if the following line doesnt contain "numbers + ON" then delete line. This will leave me with PlaceNames followed by addresses, which I will then split every other line into a new textbox, (so I have one textbox with placenames, and another with addresses).
basically ive tried a few different methods which i have come accross by searching but none seem to work.
code so far after removing everything that didnt work is as follows
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

So I built myself a simple program to work out the kinks of drawing in my programs. I have a button that I press that when the textbox.text reads 1 it then draws a line of a specific height, color and position, the problem is when I click that button again it will crash informing me that...
"Specified Visual is already a child of another Visual or the root of a CompositionTarget."

I know where the problem lies, its with the Canvas1.children.add(line), cause its telling me the line variable is already been used or in use on the canvas, I'm just unsure of how to turn that into a solution that will allow me to click the button a hundred times or more without being forced to MANUALLY make a hundred or more individual variables to store the line.
