VS 2008 Gets Erased And User Is Able To Type With Black Text?

Feb 27, 2010

On my login form I have a username text box and a password text box...

The TxtUsername text box is preset with the following:
Text: Username
Colour: Gray

Here is the code for the TxtUsername (on click):

Private Sub TxtUsername_Click
TxtUsername.Text = ""
TxtUsername.ForeColor = Color.Black

(So it's like the facebook login if your familiar with it)When user clicks the text box, the gray text already inside gets erased and user is able to type with black text.The problem is that even when the user has typed in the box, every time you click the text box the text still gets erased....It's like the code should be something like If TxtUsername.Text = Anything but "Username" then dont change it to ""

VS 2008 How To Make Disabled Text Box Display Black Font

Apr 15, 2010

I am trying to make a calculator program. I would like the display(text box) to have a white background, with black font. So I set the "enabled" property of the textbox to "false"(because I want it to display, not receive input) and then choose the background colour to be white. In the form designer, the text colour is black, which is what I want.But when I start debugging, the text becomes the colour of the form. How can I make the font black?

Dec 16, 2009

I have a text box labled QTY, which feeds the QTY column on a datatable. the table then is ran through a function that takes the data and converts it to a string which my production machine can read.

VS 2008 - User Can Retrieve Value In Any Numeric Array Type Rather Than Specifying An Array Type

Aug 11, 2011

I am writing a scripting language which used .net for execution. Now I have written a function which accepts an object and return a set of numeric values. I wanted user to pass any numeric array (e.g. integer,single,double,long) and I could return values in that format. I mean user can retrieve value in any numeric array type rather than specifying an array type. E.g.

Allow The User To Enter Text Into The Combo Box To Type Entries Contained In The List Source?

Dec 8, 2011

am trying trying to write some code for a ComboBox that does the following:

1. Allow the user to enter text into the combo box to type entries contained in the list source.

2. Enable autocomplete to assist the user in selecting entries in the list source, both from dropped down state and non dropped down state.

3. Restrict the user from typing an entry that doesn't exist in the list source.

My requirements are:

1. The ComboBox must run some code after a selection has been made or the user has finished typing an entry (not after the focus has been moved to another control)

2. The code must only run once after the user has made a selection from the combobox or has finished typing an entry

The problem: To achieve the above functionality, I had to run code on numerous event's. Sureley there is a better way, here are the events and the reason for the code:

SelectedIndexChanged:This is the code that is run when the user makes a selection. No Mystery here

KeyDown:

Must Run
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Return Then
ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(Nothing, Nothing)
End If

Picturebox Keep Getting Erased?

May 13, 2009

I've been using VB6 for a long time and finally my employer is giving me the signal to port my electronics cooling application over to .Net.One thing that I cannot figure out is refreshing a picturebox. My graphics consist of a lot of filled and empty rectangles.And I get various results, all of them not up to usefulness.Right now what is happening is when I draw on the picturebox and then show the form, I get the graphics. But if I min/max the form or move another form over it, the graphics get erased.The code is fairly basic:[code]...

VS 2008 Fading To Black With A Delay

Jul 20, 2011

I am a VB hobbyist and a new one at that. I am trying to create a transition effect in VB.NET 2008 when a certain form closes. The transition will take the form's current BackColor and slowly drop all the RGB values in it to 0 via a loop, obtaining a Fade to Black transition. I was able to come up with the code below. It works great. Maybe too great. It goes so fast that there is no transition. To the human eye it looks like the screen just went black instantly. Is there an easy way to enable a delay or pause in the below code to slow the loop down so that the end user sees the transition, and not just a quick jump to black?

When I typed Private Sub cmdAbc_(Click) and pressed Enter key the first 12 characters erase leaving cmdAcc_(Click) and the cursor on the next line. Then pressing the up arrow or space bar restores the erased characters. This problem makes coding a program impossible. Programs I created before the problem arose do run successfly, but the code for those programs displays with missing characters.

User Input - Tje User Can Type In Data To Such A Parts QTY Cost

Mar 11, 2010

I need something tje user can type in data to such a parts QTY cost etc. There are no predefined parts list so the user can enter any part name/Number and there is no limit to amount of parts that can be entered.

Does anyone have any idea what might be useful. It was thinks of a listview bu i can't see that you can type into that. I cant use comboboxs because there are no predefined list and i know there is some way to generate text at runtime (i think) but i don't know how to do it and i would prefer a clearer approach.
