Each Button To Represent Numbers Like On A Calulator Of Keypad
Aug 10, 2009
I am creating a Point of Sale software for a small company I work for. I am a beginner with Visual Studio and have just stumbled my way around. I have completed the GUI and would like to start assigning code. The problem I am having is assigning numbers to a keypad on the screen. I would like each button to represent numbers like on a calulator of keypad. When these are pressed they need to input into TextBox2.
I need to write some values from a keypad.If I write on the keypad's code the specific textbox where the value has to be written, there is no problem, but as I have many differents text box, I'd like to have something more general.What I'd like the keypad to do is to modify a global variable, so when I press the OK button on the keypad (to validate the number) this variable is refreshed and written on the right text box (on the text box in the form which called the keypad).As the form which contains the text box is already open (the keypad is just a pop-up form) I can't managed to refresh the text box and it remains with the same value as when I opened that form.
I am having trouble getting the numeric keypad on my keyboard to work with my calculator. btn0 - btn9 are working, but the numeric keys +,_,*,/ are not working. They input the sign into the text box instead of clicking the button associated with the function on the calculator. I would like to be able to use the calculator as a 10 key adding machine of sorts. [Code]
I am running a VB app that I developed in Visual Studio 2008. This app runs on an XP machine with a touch screen without a keyboard plugged in. I would like to add a popup numeric keypad for the user when a data field is touched. Can anyone tell me what is needed to create the keypad?
I have some problems with coding my visual keypad in order to input a value when the selected textbox has focus.With the code below makes the value I chose in all the textboxes.
Here the code:
'Number pad section------------------------------------------------ 'Number 1 Private Sub Button5_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
I know you can put unicode character codes in a VB.Net string like this: str = Chr(&H0030) & "More text"..I would like to know how I can put the char code right into the string literal so I can use unicode symbols from the designer view.
Below is the code I am using to restrict user from entering any other characters except for the predefined ones. But using my code I cannot hit backspace.
How to include backspace also ?
Dim s As String = "0123456789$" If s.IndexOf(e.KeyChar) = -1 Then e.Handled = True End If
I'm creating a program that outputs Quotations (and other information relating to these 1. What is the BEST way to read/write from a database (I only really know how to use Access but if XML or SQL would be better, I'm willing to learn). The database needs to be stored and accessed from the same state every time that the program opens. I've tried multiple different ways, both through DataAdapters (in code) to doing it through connecting the database through the Visual Studio GUI. Neither have seemed to work. Other people have told me that using DataAdapters and such aren't the best way, but no one has been able to tell me what this 'best way' is. Also, I need to somehow be able to link pictures in the database - apparently it's not easy to do in SQL?[code]...
I have a parcel post assignment, and i have three textboxes that represent height, width, and length. here are my questions1. how do i decalre them as integer? do i decalre the textboxes or the labels that represent them?2. how do i multiply all three together and multiply the total by 4pence and add 20p?
i can retrieve the data from the DB and put it in a vector and then, vector in a JTable, to display data in a tabular format in java, all i wanted to know is there any similar way in vb dotnet?
I'm trying to set up a CLASS to represent a data stream.This is a newbie question so if the answer is obvious, please excuse me.Several of the data items are multiples which I would normally represent as an Array element.For example, in the code below, the element SolarNameplate has up to 10 instances, so I'd like to use array notation.I get errors, and it doesn't work, so I assume I can't do it like below.
QUESTIONS : 1 - is it possible to use an array element in a class ?
2 - is there another way to achieve what I want ?
Public Class SM1PS01 Private _Projid As String '... name or number of project Private _LogoFile As String '... file containing customer logo[code]...........
I'm pondering a design that will require zooming. My intention was to use pictureboxes to represent a variety of items, and I have the code written to draw on those pictureboxes, as needed. However, there will be many pictureboxes on the form at any one time, though only a portion of them will be visible. That shouldn't be a problem, necessarily, as there isn't any issue with having controls that are not on the visible area of the screen. My issue is that when the user rolls the mouse wheel forward or back, the image will have to scroll in or out, which means that the location and size of the pictureboxes will have to scale relative to the point where the mouse is located.
Technically, this would be more easily accomplished using graphics directly, since I can use ScaleTransforms and...uh...one other, to do the scaling. However, I would prefer to stick with the pictureboxes because I will be doing lots of drag and drop work with them (dragging things into and out of them), and that code is already written. If I were to change that to use rectangles and circles drawn dynamically and scaled dynamically, I'd have to use some kind of hit testing to figure out which object I dragged or dropped onto, and where. Therefore, switching away from pictureboxes would require a fair amount of recoding. There really shouldn't be a problem scaling and translating the controls on the form, but rather than writing the math behind that, I was wondering if there were any built-in tools that will do it for me or will help with the process.
In a tic tac toe game I'm working on I have 2 dictionaries (plyrPairs and cmptrPairs) In the program there is a procedure that is used numerous times. The procedure varies with the dictionary that it calls. I'd like declare a variable in a sub procedure that will represent these two different dictionaries. Here is what I have:
Here are the two enumerations:
vb.net ' Assign values to player pairs enumeration Private Enum plyrPairsList empty = 0
I am creating an application that takes two numbers (lower and upper) and determines the prime numbers
Public Class primeNumber Private Sub calculatePrimesButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles calculatePrimesButton.Click 'declare variables Dim number As Long [Code] .....
Once I hit the calculate button nothing comes up. I've tried adding the first code inside the function with the remaining code but no result. Now I'm putting the first code in with the calculate prime button. I am guessing there's a sqrt method that needs to be applied but I am not sure if it should be part of the function or the main?
What suggestions do people have for a timeslot data structure? I have a number of activities and I'm planning to display them in a datagrid with days as columns and timeslots as rows. This suggests to me a timeslot data structure with 5 properties for the five days (the columns) for every value I want to use e.g. a timeslot ID and the number of slots left.
Then each TimeSlot structure would be for a specific time. say 9:00 and another for each hour after that. Then I'd have a list of timeslot structures that will auto bind against the datagrid. I'm exploring new ground here and as you can see I'm not very clear on what/how to do it?
I'm working in VB.Net developing data logging software. I've developed classes implementing a common interface that works with many of the data loggers my company produces. These classes handle the low-level hardware interfacing and expose common methods for accessing the data logger's records.
i am working with serial communication in vb.i need to know how to get &h1 to be &ho1 to represent the byte o1 in hex or 0000 0001 in binary.i cant remeber how to parse the byte and represent it with two characters instead of one.
is there anyway i can randomly call up even numbers like i have a label (label1) and button (button1) i want to click on the button and it shows EVEN NUMBERS on the label at random?
I have a listbox with numbers from 1-10..i have searched it up but i cannot find how to do..how can i randomize the order of the numbers in the listbox when a button is clicked? (each number must and only occur once)
I have a theater seating project. I am creating checkboxes in a panel that represent the seats. Each of the rows has a label on it, giving it a row number.When a user clicks one of the check boxes, I need to be able to determine what row the seat was that they clicked on. I then use the row number to determine the price of the seat. I am stumped!! I can't seem to figure out how to get the row number associated with the seat. Here is my where I am configuring the seats:
Private Sub ConfigureSeating() intTheaterID = CInt(frmTheaterTickets.cboTheater.SelectedItem) Dim strSQL As String
I'm trying to format a string to represent a date in a specific format using the Format function but it's return odd results. Here's an example: Dim s as String = "01/01/2000" Dim result as String = "" result = Format(s, "dd-mmm-yyyy") result equals "dd-mmm-yyyy" (the format string) very strange.
I have a TableLayoutPanel that is 1 column wide. In it, I make UserControls to represent components of a color formula.When a user chooses a formula on the left, I call "TableLayoutPanel.Controls.Clear" and then using the data from the formula, set the number of rows and create X many new user controls in a loop and TableLayoutPanel.Controls.Add them.
The problem is, if one keeps this screen open and selects through roughly 60 to 70 different formulas, eventually, without warning, the program will crash in an unhandled exception: Error creating window handle. (There is no debugger breakpoint)What's causing this? Is it a disposal problem? Should I be doing something other than TableLayoutPanel.Controls.Clear? Would you handle building the objects differently? I'm including a screenshot of the screen in question (you can see the usercontrols vertically on the right) and the error box that comes up.
I have a very large number of tables with data in the following format:
A X Y Z 1 0-2 0-13 0-1 2 3-5 14 2-4 3 6-9 15-16 5-10
In other words, there is a variable (call it A) with a single value that corresponds to a range of values in the other variables (call them X, Y, and Z).My program needs to accept user text input of values of X, Y, Z, etc. and then match each to the corresponding value of A.Example: User enters 4 in the X text box; program determines that if X=4, A=2.Again, we're talking about tables and tables of data in this format. Unaware of a better method, I have been using arrays.
Example:
Dim a() as double = {1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3,3...} Dim x() as double = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10...}
Note how I had to artificially deal with variable A so that the index of each score corresponds to the index of the matching X variable.It is this modification of the variables that is taking forever. There has to be a better way! Hypothetically, what I need is the ability to do something like this:
Dim a() as double = {1,2,3,4...} dim x() as double = {0 to 2, 3 to 5, 6 to 9...}
Is there a way to represent a range of values at a single index of an array, such as my hypothetical example above? This would save me hours of re-shaping the data to make the arrays work.
My project is basically a addition test for 5 to 9 year old children. On my form I have a button which when clicked, it inputs a number from 1 to 10,( which is chosen by the user via an combo box drop down), into ten text boxes. I have built and array and used a, for loop for this and it works fine. [code] My problem is I need to create another array connected to the same button to genarate 10 random numbers. Which will allow the user to add the two numbers together.My problem is that visual basic wont let me add a second array to the same button?
I have a program where I'm trying to clone icons in a folder and represent the files in a listview on a form. I've tried using msdn, google and F1 help to figure this out, but I don't seem to be getting it.Here's the code I have so far, but I'm getting error that object not set to an instance of the object.
