VS 2008 : RichTextBox Formatting In A Loop?
Jun 23, 2011
i am trying to display a line of smiley faces ☻ and change the colour of each face, i cant use a find method as there are 10 of these smilies so i thought about using a loop and selecting only the last one entered and changing its colour. here is a simplified version of my
VB.Net
For a = 0 to 9
RichTextBox1.Text += "☻" ' add the smiley
[code]....
This when i ran it changes the first nine to the first colour in the array and correctly does the colour of the last smiley? could i for instance format the character first then add it formatted?

I have a richtextbox with multiple colored text in it. When I change the font, the color table is removed and everything changes to the default fore color. Anyone know of a why to preserve the color table and formatting when changing the font? I know I could build the RTF manually, but I really want to avoid that if possible.

I've developed a MySQL chat app that I have in my program. It works perfectly, however all of the text is the same color. I use a silver-on-black scheme. I'd like to do 1 of 2 things, whichever one is.. er.. "more possible". The first option would be simple - alternate each row's back color. So that one row would be silver-on-black, the next row would be black-on-silver, and so on alternating. Each row is separated by a "vbCrLf". The second option would be to merely bold or turn to white the info text. Here's the format of the chat messages: [{time} - {user}] {message}. I would want [{time} - {user}] to be bold and white. Are either of those 2 options possible? Well, I know they're possible

I am trying to bind a RichTextBox to data from an XML file where text within a paragraph may be tagged with formatting tags. As an example the text may look like this:"The size of the area is 5000 m<superscript>2</superscript>".Text may also contain other formatting tags such as <bold> or <italic>:"The quick brown fox <bold>jumps</bold> over the <italic>lazy</italic> dog".

I have a RichTextBox. I process all the formatting and everything works fine. There is an exception. When I have selected text that have two states of formatting in it, the SelectionFont member is set to Nothing. I notice that WordPad recognizes this condition
and kindof greys out the affected format.
Let's take this example:
This text is in Bold.
The rest of the comments here and not in bold.
When I select these two lines, the SelectionFont gets set to Nothing. WordPad sets the Bold button grey, but still clickable. If I click the Bold button in this state, the entire selection is set to bold. How do I achieve this same functionality?

I have an Emailer in my Application and it has a richtextbox which the user can add fancy colours, font, pics etc... but when I send the email it doesn't send it as HTML. Is there a property in the richtextbox that lets me access the HTML code so that the email is sent as HTML and not just plain text. I need to be sending the emails as it appears in the richtextbox.
I am using the following code
Dim moApp As Outlook.Application
Dim oEmail As Outlook.MailItem
moApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
oEmail = moApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)
[Code] .....
And I get the following email Without HTML. Please look at the Emailer to see that it is formatted. So I need to send the content of the Emailer as HTML via outlook.

I have a RichTextBox with an OnChanged event. The OnChanged event should look at each line in the RichTextBox and if the line is of prime length colour it red, otherwise colour it black. How do I do this? I think it is possible to select from index a to index b and set selection colour, but I think this will lose my cursor position.

Using VB 2008, I have a form which includes a richtextbox which is bound to a database field. When i bind the datafield to the richtextbox, I get an unformatted display unlike the control in VB6. How can I bind the data from the database to the richtextbox so that it displays formatted?

I have a rich text box in one of my applications (WPF). Now I want to store the data of the rich text box along with its formatting (e.g. bold, colored etc.) into a database (SQL Server). Currently I am storing the whole XAML of the text box in a database field. however, I am not sure whether this is the right approach.

I have two RichTextBoxes, each of which can have any sort of formatting. I need to be able to take the rich text from box 2, complete with formatting, and add it to the end of box 1, preserving the formatting of both box 1 and the appended rich text.
I've not managed to find anything usefull on this anywhere apart from hints pointing to manually re-building the RTF codes for the result (but no actual VB / C# / C code to perform this or similar).

I have a WPF RichTextBox which contain in its FlowDocument both text and images. I need to iterate through the text's words (those which builds the text which the user see on the screen) and change their content and formatting. For instance, change the word "room" to the word "home", applying to the last a red color.
I need to change words whether they are formatted or unformatted.For instance, if a word is in Italic, colored, or just regular black text, it makes no difference for me.Each word will be replaced with one which have about identical length, so I don't want that this operation will effect the general page layout. All images and other objects should remain at their positions.It is preferred that the process of this operation will not be visible to the user. Only its result should be visible (i.e, no visible selections of text).If this operation can be done either directly on the FlowDocumet or with properties/methods of the RichTextBox, the simple one is preferred (but exmaples for both will be ideal).

I would like to be able to vertically scroll some text in a richtextbox control in a loop so when it reaches the last line in the richtextbox it jumps back to line 0 and starts over, I can figure out the scrolling using code:
[Code]...
Which is placed in a timer but I am not sure how to reset the scrolling back to the top once it has been through all the lines of text. Using the above code just seems to go on forever even if there is no more text to show... I tried setting the POINT values to 0 but that does not help.
Has anyone got some ideas on how I can do it, I want to use this code as it gives a nice smooth scroll efect.. how can I reset the scroll position back to 0/the top of the richtextbox?

I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?

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.

have a really annoying VB 2008 problem and I'm hoping someone knows how to solve this. I implement the following code:
Code:
DispArrDate = MonthArr & "/" & DayArr & "/" & YearArr
DisplayArrDate.Text = DispArrDate.ToLongDateString
So basically, I'm getting date information from the user and trying to convert it into a date format, and show it to the user in a text box which is obviously named "DisplayArrDate", and "DispArrDate" is a date variable and "MonthArr" & "DayArr" & "YearArr" are strings which are always numbers because they are selected from a drop down combo box.
Now, the code works perfectly on my computer and some others, but for some unknown reason, on some computers, even if they have the same local date settings, it gives me the error: "Conversion from string "4/13/2009" to type 'Date' is not valid.", that's just one example, where "13" is obviously the day. I use the month/day/year format because, in the toturial I'm reading, it tells me, that no matter my local date settings, when using VB 2008, the month/day/year format should always be used and it will display a date in the local format automatically. It seems that on some computers, this isn't the case, and the month/day format is creating errors.

formating a date here
Dim dt As DateTime
dt = dsTitles.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("servicedate")
lbldate.Text = Format(dt, "dd/mm/yy HH:MM")
The original date is - 19/08/2008 00:00:00
the date that variable dt gets is - #8/19/2008#
the final result is - 19/00/08 00:08
