I've got a simple textbox and as the user enters text in the textbox I display a label below with matching words (to what they are typing). When they click the DOWN or UP arrow I highlight one of the words below in the label.

How can I set my application in VB 2010 to do something when I press a certain key on the keyboard? I heard somethin about the Keypress Event but i'm not sure that will actually work. I want a code so that my application can do the following things: If I press either the left or the right Windows Logo key on the keyboard, I want it to make Label2 visible. I already set the Visible value on false in Mybase.Load.
View 8 RepliesBasically I need to handle a keypress or keydown/keyup event on a form, specifically for the Up, Down, Left, Right arrows. Using the below, nothing moves. However, if I change (Keys.Left) to (Keys.A) then a capital A will move the object.
vbnet
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(Keys.Left) Then
'Note that 'man' is a PictureBox.
man.Location = New Point(man.Location.X - 5, man.Location.Y)
End If
End Sub
I'm working on an application of which counts how many keystrokes/clicks. I'm just wondering how I would go about logging such actions. The application will be running in the background within the taskbar and when you click on anything on your computer/type anything or press any key I want it to pick up the event and log and add up, so if i click 10 times it will add 10 onto the total clicks and vicer versa on typing.

View 6 RepliesI am still a beginner programmer so keep in mind that what I'm trying to do is beyond my knowledge but I have no one to teach me Visual Basic except from what little I can learn off of the internet. Currently, I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition so my problem may be appear different if I show you any of my code.
I've created a program that contains a label and the words in the label form a question. Below that is a textbox with some text that has to be memorize for a play. Just think of the question as the previous speakers part. So far I've set it so that the words in the textbox are randomly removed and are replaced with a blank. I face with the program is that the user can't enter the answer because the blank is in the way.
Instead of putting a blank where the missing word is I would like to have some textboxes put there that way the user can enter the missing word and so that I can later insert some code that will let the user check to see if the answer they entered is correct.now the missing word is still replaced by the blank so I need to get rid of that and insert the textbox wherever the words are missing.
I am having trouble with a separate program that keeps saying Adobe flash is not installed. And I have tried everything but it still wont go away (that was off topic a bit). I want to create a program that will auto click the words "Click Here" if the error message shows. Because if I click there then it will work normally until it pops up again.
View 3 Replies1. How do I highlight a Label?
2. Lets say I have 3 lables: label1, label2, label3. Is it possible to do: Label(1).Text = "Text"?
I've got a textbox and a label. In the label, I've got the string "alberto". What I want to do is, I want the charactes I write in the textbox to highlight in the label, so, for example, when I write "al" in the textbox, the first two characters will be highlighted.
So, the real question is: how can i highlight only some characters in the label instead of the whole text?
I have to create a textbox and a label component. The textbox object will have to behave under the following conditions: 1. It will only accept letters and the ENTER key as input.

I need to display images when I press a key on the keyboard. I have a form with a textbox and a label on it. When I type a letter in the textbox it appears on the label. I got that part to work. But now I want to display a image in the label when I press a key on the keyboard. I have found some images on the internet that I want to display when I press a key on the keyboard. For example when I type the letter A in the textbox instead of A appearing I want an image of an apple to appear, or if I type the letter B a banana would appear, or if I type the letter D a dog would appear. I have been searching on how to this I came across the keyboard event such as the keypress event. Can I use a keypress event of the textbox to do this. Can I assign a certain image to a certain key on the keyboard, and have that image display whenever I press that key.

View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a program that would allow me to track all my customers and flights. My idea is to have a label for every seat of the plane.

View 18 RepliesI'm not sure how to even ask for what I need. I have a form with many input fields. Here is what I want to do. When I click on a field I want the contents to highlight and then if any new data is entered it will overwrite the current contents. The way it is now, when I click on a field if there is any data in the field I must first use the delete key or the backspace key to get rid of the current data. If I just type the new data it just inserts it. For example, if the field has "Bob" in it and I want to replace it with "Jack" I have to delete the contents. If I start typeing I may end up with "BobJack", or "BoJackb" or "BJackob" or so on. I want to overwrite the existing data. BobJack

When we left click a grid cell, or list item, it highlights. Left click outside it and the selection jumps to the new place.
I can RIGHT click anywhere in the grid without disturbing an existing highlight, but I want it to work more like windows explorer would in terms of file selection..
i.e. if I right click inside the range, the range stays, if I right click outside the range, the range moves to a new single cell that I just right flicked.
Try it now on this page. Select some text, right click on the selection and it stays. Right click outside the selection and it goes. In datagrid (for example), the selection can only be modified with a left click.
How can we change this so the selection behaviour of a datagrid/list is more like this text pane?
On a related note. If I left click in a textbox I can drag a selection out. If i wanted to right click and drag the selection out, would it be the same process? (It's for a custom string manipulation picker control..)
The form is a dialog, with KeyPreview = True and AcceptButton = (none)Handling Me.KeyDown, and Me.KeyPress do not trigger when I press either the Up, Down, or Enter buttons. Me.KeyUp will fire on up and down, but not enter.I put a breakpoint on the procedure declaration and the first line of the procedure (the Me.KeyPress and Me.KeyDown event handler procedures), and they never fire.
