I want to allow the user to enter symbols using the keyboard. I'm checking the textbox onkeydown event for the pressed key and then change it to a symbol, for example if I would press 'a' then the textbox would show '☺'. But the problem is that the textbox shows both 'a' and '☺'. Is there a better event to check this, or better way to do this?[code]...

What I want is to display combine input data from TextBox1.Text and TextBox2.Text to TextBox3.Text I mean keep any previous data input in same TextBox and saperate it using a comma (,) or (;) for combination I am using (@)
Example: In TextBox1.Text I put 200 and TextBox2.Text 2000... Click button Save and I want it to be display in TextBox3.Text as 200@2000 and again I Enter 500 in TextBox1.Text and 5000 in TextBox2.Text Click save button and I want it be display in TextBox3.Text as 200@2000;500@5000 which is 200@2000 is the first input data... and it continue as many as it can.

View 15 Replieshow one would go about validating input into a textbox for example:
Lets say the first letter the user enters has to be 'A' and the third letter the user enters has to be any number ranging from 0-9 and the length of their input cannot exceed lets say 10.
This is what I have so far:
If txtOperatorID.TextLength > 10 Then
bErrorOccured = True
sErrorMessage = sErrorMessage & "-No more than 10 chars" & vbCrLf
[Code]....
The coding for the length works(is there a better way to do this)? The coding for the first letter to be A works but then I have no idea how to set validation for any proceeding characters entered. Am i right in thinking I have to find their position somehow in the string if so how?
