Does visual basic 2008 have a colorbox like delphi 2007? If not what other choices are there to create a advanced color chooser. I want it so that the user gets to choose the type of color of the text.
View 15 RepliesThis is my first web-based application using VB 2008. I had no idea where to start so I just chose the 'Wpf Browser Application' and started adding the controls on the form and naming them the same as I would do with a normal non-web-based vb app. I ran the XBAB file under bin/debug using IE and the form showed up but I couldn't enter text or anything even though the textbox was set to enabled?
View 7 RepliesWhy isn't this working? The color dialog comes up, but when you choose a color and click 'OK', nothing changes.
Code:
Private Sub ColorBtn_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ColorBtn.Click
Dim NewColor As New Color
[CODE]...
How do I give the user a color chooser for the background of a form or anything else? I would like to be able to give him all colors in vb.net.

I need to have 4 text boxes and three command buttons. One button should be used for exiting the program, one button should be used for clearing all of the text boxes, and the last button should be used for any calculations/conversions. You should also have a radio button group for the user to choose entry temperature type.
One text box should be used for the entry of an initial temperature. The radio button group will then allow the user to select the entry temperature. When the button is clicked for conversion, the other three text boxes will populate with answers to the conversion. and if I enter 37 degrees Fahrenheit, the Fahrenheit text box should read 37 after the conversion.)

i created a form with a combobox that lists out Assignments ( assignment 1, assignment 2, etc...)......what i need to do is let the user choose an assignment, then the program should look for the matching text file in a folder, ex: user picks assignment 1, and the program will read from assignment1.txt and display the result in a listbox. I have everything except the coding to match what the user chooses and the text file to streamread.
View 10 RepliesI am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

View 1 Replieseveryone! I've been at this for a while, and I'm not sure how this issue can be resolved:I'm working on a project in VB.Net, and I have a form with a rich text box. I have a groupbox with 4 radio buttons inside that are intended to change the font color of the text. Coincidentally, I have to repeat this same functionality for a 2nd set of radio buttons that would change the text font family.
At any rate what I've only been able to do is the following to successfully change the font color of whatever text I highlight in the rich text box:
Private Sub rbtnBlack_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles rbtnBlack.CheckedChanged
rtbxTextEditor.SelectionColor = Color.Black
End Sub
Private Sub rbtnRed_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles rbtnRed.CheckedChanged
[Code]...
Is there a way that I could write a sub (I'm assuming I would use a sub, since I don't think I need to return anything, thus eliminating the use of a function) that would handle the action of changing the selected text color in the rich text box without having to use a separate sub for each radio button? Mind you, per my teacher's specs, she doesn't use a button handler for any of this.
is it possible to make first 60 characters in a rich text box a different color than the remaining text?
View 25 Repliesso i have a quite huge program. but lets say i have one label. and i want to save that. i have the code and everything for saving the text of the label. now i want to assign ctrl+s to automatically save the labels text once pressed instead of going through a menu to choose save.this is like a regular texteditor where u press ctrl+s and it saves.
ive used this
If (e.KeyCode = e.Control & Keys.S) Then
MessageBox.Show("Ctrl+S pressed")
End If
and

but it doesn't do anything once pressed.im also using the keydown declaration for the form.
How can I change certain text's color (like Visual Studio does with "Public Class" or "Public Sub") is inside of a Rich Text Box?

I am new to visual basic and i'm having difficulty changing color of a text. I'm currently using visual studio 2008.

I would like for the search results in the message box to be changed to a different color.
