VS 2008 - Using Cases To Change Background Colour

Mar 18, 2010

I am working with cases, I'm only learning it so far, but just can't get a drop down menu to work that would change the background of a Textbox.

Private Sub cbColours_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cbColours.SelectedIndexChanged
Select Case colours
Case Is = "Red"
txtSpace.BackColor = Color.Red
[Code] .....
It isn't doing anything at all...

In the dropdown menu, it has
Red, Blue and Green one per line
When the value (e.g. Green) is clicked, it will then change the Textbox to the colour selected.

Change Event Background Colour For Specific Events In FullCalendar JQuery SQL ASP.NET VB Version?

Feb 4, 2011

I have successfully converted the FullCalendar into asp.net / VB and it works perfectly. I am struggling to change the background colour of an event based on a SQL query. I have tried many of the links on StackOverflow and on the Full Calendar Docs [URL] but I have barely any knowledge of jQuery/Javascript so this is proving very difficult for me.I have 5 Employees and I would like each of them to have a unique colour on the Calendar. In my SQL table there is a SalesPersonID field for each employee. I want to change the colour based on the ID. e.g.: (I know this will not work in this scenario, it is purely for info)

If "SalesPersonID" = "1" Then
cevent.className = "Steve"
ElseIf "SalesPersonID" = "2" Then

I have a treeview and if I click on another control the hightlight disappears so I set the HideSelection to false and now the highlight row changes to a really light gray.

VS 2008 : Change Textbox's Default "read Only" Colour?

Mar 27, 2009

I have a large number of textboxes on a form that are set to read-only until the user clicks an Unlock button. I have left the default colouring in place (no code required), so the boxes are light grey when read-only and change to white when not read-only. The problem I have is that Windows Vista's colours are so insipid and pale that it's hard to spot the difference on some monitors. It all looks good on an XP desktop but the difference is too subtle on a Vista PC.

Can the default colouring of a read-only textbox be changed? I know I can change it in code with backcolor but I don't want to put loads of code behind my Unlock button. That's the way I did it in VB6 and I want to get away from that. I just want to use the default "greying out" action when making the texbox read-only, but change to a slightly darker grey.

Change Colour Of Circle?

Nov 5, 2011

I have created a program that Draw a circle and then you can move it around a picturebox. I have made code so that it changes colour but instead of changing the colour of the circle already been drawn it creates a new circle which when you overlap the original circle with the new circle it cuts part of it.So what I wanted it to do when I change the colour of the circle it changes the colour of the circle already been drawn instead of creating a new circle.

[Code]...

Also I can't use the X and Y coordinate input to move the circle to the entered coordinates.
