VS 2010 Getting Formatted Text From A RichTextBox?
Jan 7, 2011
I've decided to come back to working on an old program of mine, and it's been coming along nicely, but there's this one thing that I can't get working.I have formatting options (Bold, Underline, Italics, Strikethrough) available on my program, and they all work properly. I'm giving users the ability to export all of their text from a single page on the program to a .rtf file. However, the problem I'm experiencing is that each page has numerous RichTextBoxes on it, so I cannot simply use a RichTextBox1.SaveFile() command or something similar. I want to compile all of the text (including formatting) from all of the RichTextBoxes and put it on a single .rtf file. Currently, I'm getting the text from the RichTextBoxes using the RichTextBox1.Text command; unfortunately, that only gives me plain text without formatting. So, what I'm wondering is: how can I get the formatted text from a RichTextBox? Is there any command?
I am using vb.net 2005. In my form there is RichTextBox, when i write particular format with bold,diffrent font,color and save to sql server 2000 database with datatype 'Text' then formatted text not save in database.what is the way or source code to save formatted(rtf) text to databse, and how to display/retrive formatted(rtf) text back to RichtextBox.
I am trying to add formatted text to a rich text box..For instance, I want to add a heading as bold ("HEADING: ") and some data after it as regular ("REGULAR Data")...then a new line and do it all over again.
first name: blah last nem: blahh etc...etc...
I'd like to have a couple functions to perform the action.When I use the below functions to add txt to a single rtf box, I get lines in either all bold or all regular. It doesn't seem to keep the font formatting after it adds text..
Okay, so what I want to do is directly output formatted RTF text to a Rich Text Box control in VB.NET. I don't want to find the text, select it and color it as it is not practical for what I'm doing. I've tried outputting RTF code but that isn't working either. Can I actually do this or will I have to write a dll?
I'm trying to have a feature in my application where every time the user presses the "-" key the word directly before it becomes bold. This much I've been able to figure out:
I was working on a project and could not get the text output to be formatted like a table in text-box or rich text-box in visual basic 2010. Here are the code i have tried.
For i = 0 To 17 If cartfull(i) Then rtbReceipt.Text = rtbReceipt.Text & vbNewLine & amount_added(i)
I have no problem loading the contents of a text file into a richtextbox(rtb) with the below code. I can then edit and save the contents of the rtb to the file, and clear the rtb.
However, is the file still open? Does loading a text file into the rtb actually open that file? I am asking because I can't find any methods or techniques to close a file that has been loaded into a rtb. Is clearing the rtb the correct procedure?
Public Class Form1 Dim openFile1 As New OpenFileDialog() Private Sub OpenToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles OpenToolStripMenuItem.Click
User posts text into textbox/grid etc Button is pushed. The text is formatted as if it were in a spreadsheet. ie Only x words per row Each cell is of equal length and width.To put it another way; The first letter of the second word of the first row. should be directly above the first letter of the second word of the second row.
I have a wizard I jinned up at work to import a CSV into our database. The intro "welcome screen" has a fair bit of text regarding the catalog format, but it looks so... bland.
My thoughts turned to making an html page, adding it to the project, and then in place of the text box of instructions have a web browser control to load that specific html doc in the project.
The html doc would have all sorts of pretty formatting and what not (bold, bullet points, colors, etc).

I've been trawling the web for ages trying to find some dll's/code to be able to extract text from a PDF file and keep the formatting as much as possible.I did find something last year, but it simply took all the text and created one big list of every section in no particular order, so I couldn't read the values I needed from it.
I'm using VB2008 Express and Flash CS4. I'm trying to create a CGI-formatted text file with VB2008 and use it in Flash. Below is an image of the form I'm creating. Beside each number is a textbox for input of the answer follwed by a double-numbered textbox. There's also three radio buttons on the top of the form, "Single", "Double" and "Triple". Single is multiplied by 1 for a number-inputted text box; Double is multiplied by two and Triple is multiplied by 3. Take a look at the form below and you'll see what I'm talking about.
I've put a page long document into a richtextbox, thinking I could get rid of the cursor (or caret -- whatever it is when you click on it) but no luck. (I guess there is an API for this -- and it may come to that).
Visual Studio 2005 I have an application that prints formatted text to a printer. I'm using the sample code from MSDN to impliment PrintDocument.PrintPage. My function for formatting the pages uses exactly the same code.
The problem is that the actual printout is off by one line. The footer from the first page prints at the top of the next page. Subsequent pages scroll down by one line for each page printed. If I reduce my formatted text lines by one, the opposite happens... the header from the second page prints at the bottom of the first page.
I've fussed with margin settings and fonts and I just can't seem to make it print pages correctly. I'm hoping that someone out there has seen this and can offer advice.
The format I need is a group of numbers in a text file and it looks like this and it will always look like this:xxxx x xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx x xxxxxxxxxxx xxxx x
The problem is that it can be anywhere in a text file so I cannot search by a particular line.
How can I search for this type of string format in a text file?
I want a proper hh:mm:ss formatted duration, but I cant seem to get it right. I have ran through a good dozen attempts and things just arent working.
timer Public dtStartTime As DateTime Public tsElapseTime As TimeSpan Public Sub tmrStartTime()
[code]....
Calling tmrStartTime sets the start of the timer, and tmrGetTimeSpan should report back the proper hh:mm:ss. For example, 11 elapsed seconds should look like 00:00:11, or 65 elapsed seconds should look like 00:01:05.
I have read serveral tutorials online and seem to be missing something. I am trying to have the leading 0's show up in columns by setting the format to text.
''' <summary> ''' This is required for the grid view to export properly ''' </summary>[code]......
i have a textbox in my app, and when you click the button it inputs the textbox.text into a website textarea this worked fine when i was testing it using the source code (html file on my computer) but what i did not realise was that the textarea was formatted with some java (added tools to the texarea) so now when i try it on the website it does not work as the textarea has the java running. (calls it from another url) code i was using
I try to insert formatted text into Word bookmarks. The text comes from several rich text controls (we use TX Text Control) and is appended into a bookmark. The problem is that the tags are written as-is and are not interpreted.
oWord = New Word.Application Dim strFileName As String = "\...Template.dot" oDoc = oWord.Documents.Add(strFileName)
[Code].....
I tried with RTF or HTML format for my string but it is the same behavior.
Instead of the send message text box and message display text box, I have replaced it with RichTextBox for text formatting (bold/italics/underline/font/color). The problem I am facing is when I format the text and click on send, then the text displayed on the message display box (txtMessageHistory) is unformatted. [Code] Rest of the code of client is related to formatting of the rich text boxes that is not relevant to my problem. I just need to transfer the formatted text from client to server and then back to the client the same way and display the message with text formatting.
Im trying to retrieve some rows from sql server having datetime column that matches the given value of the textbox in a form. The tables datetime column name is "DepDateDepositDate" and the textbox.text was formatted as longdate eg("Tuesday, April 06, 2010") I have this code below but it seems its not retrieving the data that i wanted.
Dim daBnkBok = New SqlDataAdapter("Select * From DepositRef Where Convert(varchar,DepDateDepositDate, 112) = '" & Convert.ToDateTime(clsGlobals.BankBook.bbDepDate.Text).Date & "' ", bbcons)
I am creating a text editor like notepad. Well its an advance type because it is a tabbed notepad type. It saves html files.
