VS 2010 Images In Rich Text Boxes?
May 31, 2012
In a program I'm planning to generate reports which I'll display using the rich text boxBesides rich text, i want to put images into the rtb. I've looked up how to put images into rtbs and the only way that i can find seems to be by pasting them from the clipboardThis method works well with setting bitmaps to the clipboard but i run into a problem when i try to set a metafile to the clipboard (the report contains plots and metafiles are perfect for that kind of thing). So if there could be another way of inserting a metafile into a rtb or maybe a way to write a rtf file with a metafile in it, that would be great.

Using VS/VB 2010 and a windows form that will display 2 rich text boxes. The basic idea is to load rtb_1 with "primary data" and rtb_2 with "corresponding notes" underneath rtb_1. Scenario:
When the user clicks a button_1, rtb_1 is displayed on the form with size(1232, 364) and the main data loaded into it from a file.When the user clicks button_2, the size of rtb_1 is "new size(1232, 200)" and rtb_2 is displayed directly below it with size(1232,168).Does anyone know why the scroll bar works fine for rtb_1 w/out rtb_2 showing... but when the rtb_2 is displayed the rtb_1's scroll bar does not allow me to go to the very bottom of the text?

I'm developing an add on to onther application. The add on presents the user with a form containing Rich Text Boxes. The user can type and format text and insert images. I now have to translate the Rich Text to graphics to display in the parent application using the OnPaint event.
I've found routines to convert text using SendMessageA etc. but these do not paint the images, only text.
I embed some replaceable parameters in the rich text, like page number, etc. so I can replace it with the page number when painting in the parent app. So I retain the rich text to know where the replaceable parameter is in the text.

I'm Making a Simple syntax highlighter and I'm Doing the highlighting in the text Changed event of a RTB and for obvious reasons I can't re highlight the whole document each time someone presses a key so i highlight one line each time the text changes. But this creates a Problem. If someone pastes code into the RichTextBox It only highlights the last Line. So is there a way to get if the user typed the text in with his keyboard or pasted it from the clipboard in the text Changed event?

I've been wanting to create a look like the attached jpeg Ive been looking around for a few hours for a solution to make text boxes transparent or have a background image. I've found a few projects on this form and elsewhere which include transparent text boxes, but every time I try to use it the way I need to--with the text box over a picture box--there are always various rendering errors. Most of the time, the text box is transparent if its just placed on the form (not over any other controls). But when I place them over other controls (like picture boxes), the 'transparent background' always take on the color of the form background.
This is one that I was trying to use. I found a few others around, but they all had the same render errors more or less.[URL]...I figured transparency or background images would have been supported natively. Anyone have any ideas? Maybe I missed something in my searches. I didn't really see anything which adds background images in text boxes (rich or otherwise). At this point, I'd just like anything that works, so it doesn't really need to have transparency--just a simple background image would be great.

I have a rich text box which I use in order the user is able to add pictures, coloured writing, different font etc... however I need to load specific text in the rich text box when the user load the Form.how I can add (I guess) the HTML to load this every time the user load the form.
P.S the text will change depending on who loads the form so I can not do a simple
RichTextBox1.LoadFile("C:Documents and SettingsDesktopSigniture.rtf")

I have a rich text box ('RichTextBox1') and a button ('BoldButton'), and have it set up so that whenever the user highlights some text in the box and clicks the bold button, that text becomes bold. That much I've figured out...
Public Class Form1
Private Sub BoldButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles BoldButton.Click
Dim Bold As New Font(RichTextBox1.Font, FontStyle.Bold)
RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = Bold
End Sub
End Class
But I'd also like to add the ability that if the user highlights text that is already bolded, then clicks the bold button, that text will go back to 'regular' font. In other words, I'd like the 'bold' button to be able to toggle between bold and regular font.

I am trying to follow the book 'Sams teach yourself VB 2008'. It was going well until the end of hour 4. For exercise 1 I have created the form with a button and two text boxes, but cannot work out the code I need to move text between the two boxes. The Object Browser does not seem to help - am I reading it wrong?

I am wondering is there an easy way to fill up text boxes. Lets say, i have a form with 11 text boxes. User puts a decimal number in one text box, hits button and that decimal number becomes converted to binary and i need to fill up all 10 other textboxes with elements of that binary code. My code looks like that:
Dim a As Integer
Dim s As String
Dim aa() As String

I need help getting the sum of a bunch of text boxes into another text box without using a button. Ive tried using TxtTotal = Val(txt1) + Val(txt2)... in the Total1_TextChanged but nothing happens. Someone once said I should use databinding but I cant see how that would work when Im using user input as the data to be Totaled. Also I dont know a whole lot about vb as I am just learning, and databinding
ps the values Im adding are in currency format. So I guess i would need to convert them back to add them, but im not sure.

I want to display (DataGridView's) selected row contents (each cell value on appropriate text box) on text boxes on the form. This should be fairly simple task for experienced i am sure.So far i haven't been able to find a single working solution to accomplish that as most of the articles are written for VB / VB 2005/ VB 2008 and not VB 2010.
Here is what i have already tried. (I tried putting an image but i can't due to my privileges over flow) TextBox1.Text =DoctorsDataGridView.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value.ToString It strangely works for first 4 selected rows and populate text boxes but fails for the rest of the DataGridView.

I'm writing a program for my class, which pretty much is an energy cost calculator. It takes 4 inputs from 4 text boxes and multiplies them, and the result is the cost. Well, now I have to come up with a way to check for empty text boxes and display a prompt to enter a number. I've tried inserting multiple codes to display a prompt and to no avail nothing has worked, I also receive the error "when casting from a number, the value must be a number less than infinity" error.

I need to compare the data between two text boxes and a variable. If the value of the boxes don't match up and the variable is -1, I need to fail it.When I do this:
VB.NET
If Not Me.txtPcidSystem.Text = Me.txtPcidDatabase.Text Then
I have no troubles, but adding the variable check produces a false positive.
VB.NET
If Not Me.txtPcidSystem.Text = Me.txtPcidDatabase.Text And TestData.BypassCheck_PCID = -1 Then
The way the code is laid out, I have to do this in one line. I can't check the first condition on one line and the second on another.I've tried separating the data out with parantheses, but it's producing the same results.

so i have this data grid, which i wanna search , base on specific criteria from two or more text boxes; eg a user wants to search employees from karachi, so they enter karachi in the first text box. now they want to search employees from karachi whose status is permanent, so they enter permanent in the second text box, and the data grid shows employees from karachi whose status is permanent.
For search from ONE text box, i have used the following code :
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyUp(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyUp
If TextBox1.Enabled = True Then

The program is a cash counter I already have the code done for multiplying, for example txt1.text = txt2.text * 0.01 (not the exact code) anyway the totals from these is displayed in the columns I was speaking of. I tried the same method I used for multipling but that doesn't work.

So as the name states; I am a newer coder.
This is the code i have:
Public Sub RandomNumbers()
Dim s(4) As String
Dim RandomNumber As Byte
I don't know if you can tell what I am trying to do here, so I will try to explain. I what to create for random numbers and place them into for different text boxes. I also would like to do this with combo boxes and their selected indexes. So if the combo box has 10 items in it; the new selected index would be the random number generated above.

I'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.

In VB10/win forms project, when I change the forms font size the form and all the controls on the form get larger or smaller, OK great! The problem is the combo boxes then appear with their text highlighted. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong, simple example..
