aligning text into columns in a textbox.
I need it to look like the following:
XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX
XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX
I've seen several representations of how to do this in VB6, but I would prefer managed code (VB.net). Also, I want to make sure that what appears in the textbox will translate to the printed page the same way.
I have very new to VB. I was just fiddling and ran into this. I cant set the text alignment of a text box twice with the focus events as well as cant set or reset the password char property. The code is given below:
Private Sub tbxLogin_LostFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tbxLogin.LostFocus
If tbxLogin.Text = String.Empty Then
'tbxLogin.ResetText()
tbxLogin.ForeColor = Color.Gray
'tbxLogin.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Center
'trying to align the tbx gives it focus

So I am adding StaticTextField controls to a page. This is using ExtJS, but we use VB.NET methods to add ExtJS so we don't actually have to write it.I tried using

Anyone have any idea why these aren't right aligning using CSS? For some reason, if I try to use the same code above (the CSS), to try and right align comboboxes, or number fields, it works, and they are located right underneath these static controls, but it's not working for static controls. They need to be static because we don't want the "box" outline on each of the values, we just want it to be text, nothing else on the screen.
i created a panel with few buttons, all buttons have the same size, most buttons hold images, 2 of them hold string (1 or 2 digit) the string buttons will not align with the rest of them, and i have no idea why ?

View 5 RepliesI converted a VB6 application to VB.Net and in doing so, I seem to have lost the ability to auto-align the controls on the form. I thought I could change that in the "Tools > Options > Windows Forms Designer > General" area but that doesn't seem to work. Anyone have any ideas? I really don't need to use a grid for aligning since the auto-align functionality can be used but I just don't know how to get it back.

A little bit like multifox made by firefox.
View 4 RepliesI have a form on with I have a label inside a panel, with a button I can open a fontdialog and change the font of the label (inside the panel). The font (name and size) I also display in 2 textboxes. This works as far. But I also want to display in a different label (so not the same as the label inside the panel) which fontstyle is selected (at this point when I select bold, the number 1 is displayed in the label, but I want to the word Bold displayed. Also I found out that when I make the fontsize smaller, the label inside the panel isn't align in the middle of the panel.
View 1 RepliesI current have an app that I am trying to create. I have 2 List boxes, a textbox, and a command button.What I am trying to do is take about 100 text files that all have certain text in them that I need to change at run time to whatever I put into the textbox. For instance Each Text file has my old company name and I want to be able enter my new name into the textbox and click the command button and the app will open each text file, find the text that I specify and replace it with my new name then save the file into a specified folder.What elements should I be studying to make this happen? So far this is what I've come up with:
OpenFileDialog - to open the file
StreamReader - to read the text files and find the text that I specified
**Not sure on the replace method**
StreamWriter - to write the text from the textbox to the new file
SaveFileDialog - to save the file to the specified location

what i need to do is to add text in a list box via checkboxes. For example if a check box is checked, then a certain text (e.g. "Flea Treatment") gets added to the list box. In my project there are around 15 checkboxes, and not all of the may be clicked. So what I want to do is, when there are values in the list box (Only words!) then I press the Save button and all the values (i.e. all the treatments, e.g. Flea, de-worming, myxomotosis) inside the list box are saved to my database. The table inside the database, is called tblNotes, and has only 4 fields, one of which is a unique ID field, which is the primary key; the other field is the one where I want the values inside the list box, to be saved. As for the other two, they are for standard textboxes, with a fixed length, they are already working.My problem is this: The list box won't save to the database, and I want to know how I could save it. This is the code I have for saving it to a database (btnSave):
Private Sub btnSaveNotes_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSaveNotes.Click
'The purpose is to save the changes made to the record on the screen
'Check if compulsory fields don't contain data, show error message and place cursor back in field[code].....
