Create An App That Receives Text Input On A Form And Outputs To Printer?
Mar 12, 2010
I am attempting to create an app that receives text input on a form and outputs to printer but I haven't any idea where to start for the coding. the form was relatively easy, now how to code. I have labels that give questions and 16 text boxes 5 list boxes and 10 check boxes to receive input from users how can I arrange the input into a paragraph and output to printer?
I have an application that inserts data to a sql server db when it receives input. The problem is that i see many duplicate entries in the table. I have checked my code and it shouldn't do that:
Here is my problem. I'm not sure I am doing this correctly but I have two arrays [ strMonths(0) = "January"] etc. for each month and another one that receives input from the user concerning the amount of rainfall for a month. [decRainfall(0) = CDec(strMonths(0))] etc. for each subscript
The app. returns total rainfall for the year, average rainfall, maximum rainfall and minimum rainfall.The max. and min. should return the number that was input by the user and the month associated with that max. and min.I have everything working except for the month string being displayed (returned) after the max., min. number in the labels.
I'm doing a school project with arrays and I want it so that I input a part number and it outputs a image, price, and name for the part. I need to accomplish this using the array. We've only ever done arrays where you input a part number and one thing comes back out, not multiple.
I need to create a driver that can be installed as a printer and instead of printing to a physical printer it needs to print to a text file. I have no idea how to do this. I have searched for an answer on these forums but so far I haven't had much luck. I know it isn't easy to create a driver in VB but I don't know if this is technically a "driver" since it isn't interfacing with actual hardware.
Is it possible to create a VB function with multiple outputs. Note: I am not looking for an array containing me three outputs or a variable using delimitters
I need to create a program that sends & receives data via rs232. I have done it many times in VB6 with easy.
Why is so hard in vs2008?
I managed to send (or so I think). Because I can see the LEDs flashing on my board connected to the pc. But I do not get any response back from the board.
The reason I do it in vs2008, is because I need the program to run on a PDA. But to understand how rs232 works in vs2008, I just created a simple program for the pc to talk to my board.
for example, I send:
SerialPort1.Write(Chr(2) & "I" & Chr(3)) and I expect back (into a textbox), a hex string 25 characters long.
The board also send data to rs232 sometimes, without me requesting it.
I'm making a custom control that needs to look like a Text Box but I can't Inherit Directly from text box since I need to add, Change and Override so many things that it would be more practical to just inherit Control and start new.
But now my question is: Is there an easy way to create the basic functionality of a Text Box like drawing the Text Box and handling input ?
I'm trying to create an app in Visual Basic that will allow a user to input an address, state, zip, some radio buttons and other data that will then add information into a json file.
I have a form that has a web browser to display the word doc. I want to be able to edit this word doc with a text box. How can this be done. I searched for this online and came up with this: [URL] But I'm not really sure what to do with it.I have some code: Public
I'm trying to do is make a program to where when you click an option, a text outputs for each button clicked, the general design looks like this:
That's just a beginning, since the whole rest of the thing will be the same concept pretty much, and what I want to have it do is, like stated earlier, once the option is chosen, a text output, like this:
I know there is an alternative to solving that, but it will take me 10x more time, and that is, creating a new textbox, setting the visibility to False, and typing what I want outputted in that text box, then putting: RichTextBox1 = TextBox1.Text
I know that works, and gives me my output, but I just wanted to know if there was any other way but that.
how to create a form that allows a user to load an input file? I'm assuming a form like a windows explorer window will be too difficult, or not? If it is then I guess I could just put a textbox on the form and ask the user to input the directory with file name.
i have created a program to view images in a picturebox, i have created two list box's one for folder names/image areas to group certaint images and the second listbox to list the number of pages contained in the image folder/area. when the user creates a new image area, he or she can name it whatever they want, when they do that i would like to create a folder in the c drive for instance with the same name as the image area, and i would want it to create a .txt file aswell to keep memory of what they have done, so when they come back to it the next day they can just carry on from where they left off.
I am trying to create a function to remove dirty words from user input text and want to replace those dirty words with four ****. In my scenario , i have list of dirty words where i would iterate the input user text and want to replace. Say for example.,
Dim InputTxt As String = "hi bush how are you.... $hit and @ss" Dim OutPut As String = " hi **** how are you... **** and ****";
Problem: It works fine to replace some word like " bush" however fails in the below function doesn't replace "$hit" and "@ss".
Note: I do not want to use string.Replace because it doesn't have word boundary in the sentence..
Public Function pReplaceWords(ByVal dirtyWord As String, ByVal inputText As String, ByVal options As RegexOptions) As String Try
I'm trying to create a form that accepts names (or any strings) as input and stores them in a object. See attached form sample.Form Image:
Operations: ï Initially the NumericUpDown object on the form should be disabled.The user enters a value (string) in the textbox and clicks the Add button or presses the Enter key to activate that button.The application then stores that name in a List object, and displays the last entry in the Label underneath.The NumericUpDown should become enable after the first entry. The user should be able to move between all the values entered using NumericUpDown.
I have a word document (word 2000) and a drop down form field with options A, B and C.If the user pics A, I wants to hide some text and show some other text. If they pick B, then hide something else, show something else, and so on.How does one do this?I assume I need to pass the form field contents to a procedure or macro and then go into If >Then font.hidden = true or something? I've identified the text to hide/show with bookmarks, so I think I can use the bookmark as a range to hide or show?
How do I pass the form field content to the procedure? Also, can I trigger the procedure once the user selects something in the drop down? Like kick a macro off I'm thinking?
I have a reset button created in my VB form, but don't know how to code it so that it will accomplish what I want. I want it to clear the form's text boxes so that new input can be entered. I could just code an end statement but this closes the form, and I want to keep it open to continue working with it.
I am wanting to create a char array that consists of input from a form text box. I am unable to determine how to index the Char array to accept input letter by letter. if i assign the array a specified length, i am not allowed to set the strID.toCharArray to it. If i choose no index am told the value is less then the array size. I have tried many different ways, including using a counter to increment the array, but i am unable to index the array.
I am doing form validation in VB, I validate the text field data by using txtName_LostFocus function, and on wrong input I used txtName.Focus(). It works well for me. But problem is that as for as, user does not input valid text, my EXIT button also does not works.
If my Category and Forum selection is incorrect I am sorry and feel free to move it. I'd like to have the users input in the message box that will show. For example: There is a textbox and the user puts in their name as Bob. Then the message box would be: What my main goal is, is being able to include the users input they type inside the textbox inside the message box.
I have a problem with the code, I have input the valid username and password in the form textbox to input the strings in php, but it keep displaying the messagebox that says login failed.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click MessageBox.Show("Please enter your username") ElseIf Textbox2.Text = Nothing Then MessageBox.Show("Please enter your password") Else
[CODE]...
I don't really know why it keep displaying the messagebox that says it failed when I have input the valid strings in the first place.
I want to create a virtual printer that I can use to print documents from any program. When I print a document, I want a special form to pop up with different fields in it. I want the printer to show up as one of the printer selections when I press print from my web browser and any other windows program. I have virtual pdf printers installed on my computer. I would like to use the dll in the programs to create my own virtual printer and print from it.
Basically here is my problem. I have a software program that needs to 'print' a file before it will save it. I want to be able to print to my shredder so that it saves the document, but I don't actually want the document printed. So I need to print to a program that securely deletes the document and shows as a driver in Windows.
