View 3 Replieshave a Rich Text Box control on my form that allows users to type and paste images and texthen the user is done and presses a button, I want to cycle through the text and when I stumble across the RTF data for an image, display it in a picture control.
View 3 RepliesJust like the notepad, it will not allow you to paste any picture in it, and it will convert all formatted text to plain text. It will not change the content of the clipboard, it just like a filter... Is there any way to do it in VB.NET?My program screenshot:
I had a solution in my brain but I think it is not the best... The solution is reformat the text with
richtextbox1.font=myfont after any time I pasted, but it still can paste the other thing like object and picture..
I am working on a Text editor. The problem I have come to, is that when a user clicks a button, I want all the text to be displayed on one line. The reason for this is I am having problems being able to upload CSV email files on a website I am working on, because the format isn't like email, email, email, email. Instead it is like
email,
email,
email,
So I have written a program that will format it. Only It still isn't working. I need it to recognise when there is a ".com," or something.
I know that using Dim currUser As String = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") retunrs the DomainUsername, but I want to know what Group that user is in say in Active Directory.
View 2 RepliesI've been looking through the FCL for a method that will allow me to erase a line of text from a text file and replace it with another line of text. Neither the StreamReader nor StreamWriter have a method for replacing or removing Text from a text file, as does the string object. Are there any available methods for erasing just certain lines of text from a file, and then replacing them with others?
In my code, I'd like to locate a certain line in the text file, and then at that point in the text file, use a For...Next Loop to replace each successive line of the text file with new text:
Dim user_data_file As String = "user_data.txt"
edit_input = New StreamReader(user_data_file)
Dim edit_line As String = edit_input.ReadLine
[CODE]...
However, I can't find any methods that will allow me to do this.
how to read text from a listbox line by line and put current line in a label?
View 3 RepliesBasically what I'm trying to do is read a text file line by line. After each line is read, it will put each line into a separate text box. I've been trying to do this for a while and so far I haven't been able to. I tried using a for loop, but that just put all my lines in to one textbox.
View 8 RepliesMy single-instance application has code to auto-start from the command line and open a requesting file with the appropriate extension when it's double-clicked or 'run' - this works fine. Once it's up and running however, what is the recognised way to detect a command line request to open another similar file so I can offer an option box to stay with the existing file or close it and swap to the new one? Can I do this within the main app, or do I need some sort of 'background listening' app to detect this and act accordingly?

Can anyone tell me if there's a list somewhere where I can find what that generates for different OS versions.
Specifically I am trying to detect if a user is running Windows 7 64-bit.
How do I detect if an arbitrary user is an administrator on a machine? I have the user's domain and username but not password. The user is NOT the currently logged in user,so I can't just use WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.
View 3 RepliesI have an application that when it starts, it checks the internet to see if a new version is available. My problem is this: If there is no net connection, the program 'pauses' as it tries to check for the new version.
Is there a function that I can use to detect if the user is currently online, with a working connection?
I'm trying to work out how to detect if the user has pressed an f key I have this so far:
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
Label1.Text = e.KeyChar
End Sub
This detects when the user presses a character key and outputs it via Label1.text, but it doesnt work on all keys?

I have a windows form with the code above to get the ip address of the user. what would be the easiest way to get the country location of the user? based on the IP in the textbox. The solution doesnt need to be 100% accurate but good enough to work most of the time. the simpler the better.is there are any work arounds or built in fuctions for pulling a users country or language, this would be better than creating or managing a giant database.
I found that snippet, edited it a little bit and now im trying to use it...the problem that ocurres, is that its never going into the first IF... so already there seems to be an error.Im working on XP SP3 with admin privileges..

View 1 RepliesNo doubt a simple question, but I'm a beginner (I learnt GW BritingASIC in 3 months long ago - but after 6 months grappling with vb 2008 I am still bewidered).
I have written a program that asks the user at run time to choose 1 of 40 buttons. These are themselves defined at run time. Whichever button is chosen the same algoritm will run (using different data). Question: To save writing the same Button_Click routine 40 times, what code should I write - and where in the program - to detect which of the 40 the user has chosen?
Is there for my .Net application to detect if a user has logged on? It is a Windows Service, so it will be running before logon.What I want to do is display a "popup" when a user logs on to tell them the status of the application

I know that detected keypresses globally can be done through a Keyboard hook so I assume that i am going to need some sort of Mouse Hook.
How would I go about having my program monitor all open (or at least the current active) Internet Explorer windows and their current URLs? Basically, I want my program (running in system tray) to monitor the web page that is being viewed in an Internet Explorer window (NOT an integrated web browser control), and if it detects the loading of a specific URL address, execute whatever code.
View 6 RepliesAdding How would you detect if the user is using the computer? I want a program to detect if the user is using the computer (i.e. mouse and keyboard movements), and if the user doesn't type or move the mouse for a specific amount of time, it executes a command. Normally I would do this with the Application.Idle, but I want it to be detected throughout the system. Any starters?
View 22 Repliesa user copies multiple lines of text (say, from an email) into the clipboard. Based on my observations, when one tries to paste the text into a single-line textbox, only the first line is actually pasted in. (I am aware that the "obvious" solution would be to set the Multiline property to True, but there are reasons I am looking to avoid this and to put multi-line data into a single line.)
In the TextChanged event handler, I wrote code that parses the clipboard data to successfully convert it to a single-line, comma-delimited format.

How do I determin if a user has given me what I am asking for in terms of data type.

How can I tell that the user entered a double xx.yy?
Or if I am testing for integers and I get user input ABC.GH?
I know about CDbl and CInt and CStr but these don't work unless data is provided. Also how do you test if the conversion took place? Also how do you differencate between 12.00 being integer?

However, as soon as the user presses CTRL-ALT-DEL the Windows Security Screen comes up and it is too fast for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.I did a little reaserch on how to work around this issue and found that a GINA stub can be written which can delay the Windows Security Screen by some time say 2 secs which would be enough for VB to detect that the keys have been pressed.Also disabling Ctrl-Alt-Del through VB does not work because it is too fast for VB and I would like not to disable CTRL-ALT-DEL
I have aconsole application that executes 2 other processes, and then closes the processes once it's finished its work.
If the user closes the console application prematurely, the 2 other processes go rogue and sit idle (As they are expecting to be closed by the console).
Is it possible to detect when the user clicks the X or closes the console app in another fashion, so I can also destroy the spawned processes?
I want to detect when the user has changed the content of a Textbox.
The following does not work for me, because: When the user navigates through the database (using my navigation buttons), the textbox is also changed, but NOT by the user making input. I would only like to know when the user EDITED the Textbox.
