I want to do something along the lines of
txtCapital.Text = "Berlin" Or "Lisbon" Or "London" Or "Madrid"
but Visual Basic.Net says this is an invalid cast exception.Is there another way to create a random selection of for example a capital city from a list and then put into a text box?
I want to do is have textbox1.text show 10-20 characters that are random letters and numbers when i press button1. I have tried to do this but I am not so great with generating anything that is random. If possible have it be a mix of Capital and Lowercase letters.
View 1 RepliesI have to make a program that uses 2 arrays, one with the states name and one with the capitals names. I have to make it to where it randomly selects a state and asks you what the capital is, and gives you 4 choices in the 4 radio buttons provided. My problem is getting one of the randomly selected answer choices to be the Correct answer.
Here is my code so far:
Public Class USCapitals
' Declare module level variables.
[Code] .....
I use for example:
Dim S As String = TextBox1.Text
if(S.Contains("BlaBla") Then
' ..
End If
But when I use blabla in my textbox it doesn't work..How Can I ignore the capital letter or non-capital letter function?
I don't know what you would call it but I want to do something like this:

both 1 & 2 the above strings are fictitious (i made them up to make my point clear)

Here's the program. there are five categories say a, b, c, d, e, each in a textbox (color blue). There will be a command button say "choose". If i click the choose button, it will randomly choose one category and that corresponding textbox example "a" will change color(color yellow). Then if I want to click the choose button again, the selected category "a" from the first selection will change to gray, then a new category will be randomly chosen without "a" in the list and again will change to color yellow. and so on. So I can click the choose button five times, exhausting the five categories without repeating the category that was already selected.

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.
The combobox is bound via binding source to a table. How can I display the list of look up options while having the first option say [None} and if selected, clears the value from the list.

I am using visual studio vb 2005 and I searched the forums for an answer to this but didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I am using the following code to populate a list box. What I want is to have a datagrid view show the results of a dataset that is generated when a user selects something from the list box. I know how to generate the dataset, but I'm not sure how to bind that to a datagrid view and I'm not sure what event I should use from the list box.[code]
View 6 Repliesok.. just as it sounds.. I'm kinda making a document portal app for work.. has 4 list boxes going to 4 different drive locations.. for cosmetic reasons I want only the last box you clicked in to show a selected item.. so if you selected box 1 item and it was hilighted and then you went to box 2 and selected something I wanted box 1 to then dissapear.
I have some code written to handle this.. but its not working so well.. since I use the SelectedIndexChanged trigger to fire off another piece of code to unselect all the other windows.. those listboxes fire their triggers also because I have to call lstWord. SelectedIndex = -1 to make it not have something selected anymore.. and when you do that.. it calls its SelectedIndexChanged and ends up deselecting everything.. so wasnt sure if anyone had done something like this before.. seems like something that would have been done before.. but as you can imagine searching the web for "multi list box select only one at a time" or something similar..gives you some strange results..
I'm using a list box with multiple selections to add to my string -- I can't figure why my conditional doesn't seem to work. Every selection in the list box is intended to add specific literal to the string I'm building. What am I doing wrong See my code:

strScopeParagraph &= "Some special conditions which will require specific attention are:"
'strScopeParagraph &= ControlChars.Cr

I know the question is a little choppy and perhaps misleading,but I have a gridview with dropdownlists on the rows. I created an AddHandler and a Delegate for the SelectedIndexChanged and it gets to the sub. Here is the code for that:
AddHandler ddlmgr.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ddlmgr_SelectedIndexChanged
Public Delegate Sub DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DropDownList_SelectedIndexChanged)
Protected Sub ddlmgr_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
End Sub How can i get the row's Id if GridView_RowCommand is not called?
Is the ContextMenu control strictly to offer choices when the user right-clicks some object, or can it be used to offer choices in general?
In my situation, when a user opens a certain type of file, I want to offer a selection of specific subfiles (line ranges) within said file as choices. The presence of subfiles and their number is variable, so this would be a dynamic situation. (No subfiles: use the whole file; three subfiles: present three choices ...)Would ContextMenu be appropriate, or should I offer a list box or combo box or frame of radio buttons instead?
