So, my application has multiple text boxes for entering different numbers. Only numbers..
One problem I've run into is that I get an error when a textbox is totally empty. If I throw at least a zero in there, it works fine.
How would I make a textbox display "0" when someone deletes everything in the text box? I don't want it to be empty, I just want it to show zero.
I need to insert an event name and event time in VB so it starts showing the countdown to that event but the event can only be during the same day ie max countdown is 23h59m59s, but I've run out of ideas. Additionally, how can I force a textbox to a certain format eg so it only accepts numbers and puts them in a pre set format. For example when I press 111111 it sets it to 11:11:11 and 6 is the max amount of numbers in the box.

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to track down the cause of an annoying interface bug in an app that was ecently upgraded from VS2003 to VS2008 (the bug did not exist pre-migration).What happens is this :1) User clicks in textbox containing a date.2) User clears date3) User tries to move to another field, but can't. No error messages appear - it's as if the validation failed.Further info :1) The textbox's Text property is bound to a dataview which uses a datatable as its source. The bound field is a nullable datetime field with no constraints or default.2) The Validating event fires and the CancelEventArgs property is not set to Cancel. The Validated, LostFocus and Leave events all fire as well, going LostFocus > Leave > Validating3) I can't see any code changes relating to the control or the datasource with a couple of exceptions. The first is that this :
Me.txtRangeEnd.DataBindings.Add(New System.Windows.Forms.Binding("Text", Me.dvClientNos, "RangeEnd"))
has now changed to this :

I have a form with a textbox, and i would like validation to occur so that a blank field is not allowed
e.Cancel = String.IsNullOrEmpty(TextBox.Text)
Does not always work, because it still allows me overwrite an existing field with blank spaces, and then update.
I have textbox that is empty and where the cursor is flashing and I wish to move to other textboxes.What happens is that the error message is displayed first and when I press OK, only then can I move to the other textboxes. How do I stop this happening. Am I missing some code.

Ive got a Form application in VB.NET.I have many text boxes on one form (about 20). Is there anyway to check them all at once to see if they are empty instead of writing out a massive line of code to check each one individually such as
If txt1.text = "" Or txt2.text="" Then
msgbox("Please fill in all boxes")
I'm using the following code to set the cursor automatically (important) to the first empty textbox on my form:
Private Sub FirstEmptyBox()
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
TextBox1.Select()

I am using VB.net to create a simple winform. I have the option to save the data I input on that form. I am trying to prevent the user not to save the data if textbox10 is empty.

I started editing an existing code (basicaly to learn vb) without any real previous experience. Well let's get to the point;I have a form that gathers data from db ordering by user ID (on click count).I have one DataGridView with a list of user,some have data in db, some have not. I came so far that if I CLICK on a user that have data, all data is dissplayed in 6 dinamyc textboxes.If user has no data inly first (emty) row with 6 dinamyc textboxes is created.
BUT THE POINT IS (my question to you) - I have a button that simultaneously adds a row of dinamyc textboxes bellow and multiplyies textbox04 (name is clickcount & 4) and textbox05 and displays the result in textbox06.I want to add a messagebox that shows if textbox04 & 05 are empty and in that case exits sub. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Adding a records with ms access.if my form load is empty in my textbox and press ok button will show a message box "Records Failled".I'll try to run it and i got an error "Data type mismatch in criteria expression." [code]

View 4 RepliesI have an ASP.Net 2.0 textbox which I need to be validated as having some content, but where whitespace alone is valid input. A required field validator seems to reject a pure whitespace input as invalid. A regular expression validator won't fire at all on empty content. Is there a simpler way round this than using a custom validator control?

When im using a loop in my program and i'm trying to use an Error Provider to pop up whenever a textbox in my groupbox is empty for some reason I cannot get it to work, can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?

If TypeOf ctrl Is TextBox Then
If CType(ctrl, TextBox).Text = "" Then

I'm not receiving any type of error, it's just that when a textbox is blank the error provider is not doing anything.
how I can allow the program to exit while the textbox is empty but I can't figure out how it works really..it will not allow me to exit,enter, or tab out of the textbox while its empty.

I'm using visual basic to code a program to help with weights and center of balance on aircrafts, as I'm my unit's new air load planner. The math isn't hard to do, it's just that much of it is trial and error, and redoing all the arithmetic over and over again until the aircraft's C/B is in acceptable limits can eat some time up. So, since i'm trying to learn programming I thought this might be a good way to use it for a real-world scenario.

I have a SelectedIndexChanged function, as shown below;
Code:

Call Oracleview()[code].....
What I want to do is that, if the text in textbox TxtOracleNo is the same after IndexChange, i.e., a user changes from BACS to Cheque and vice versa and the Text in TxtOracleNo has not changed meaning it doesn't exit, then a message box is prompted as
Code:
MsgBox ("Enter new Oracle number")
Also, it will be nice if TxtOracleNo textbox will be empty if oracle_no is not present in TblOracleNos. Presently, if it is not available it retains the previous value.
i have made a button that opens a msgbox dialog what i need is to make it show a msgbox with an empty textbox inside and an ok cancel button,so when a user clicks it,it appears and asks for an url string and then,if uses pressed ok,the url should be placed as a movie to axshochwaveflashobject like this Private Sub FromUrlToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FromUrlToolStripMenuItem.Click If FromUrlToolStripMenuItem.Pressed Then MsgBox("emptytextbox",title "Enter the url") If MsgBoxResult = ok Then AxShockwaveFlash1.Movie = "msgbox answer"AxShockwaveFlash1.Refresh() End Sub
View 6 RepliesWhen the form loads it reads from an embedded resource file that loads the data into variables. It then uses mid(variable,1,1) to load a single value into a textbox. It does this for a total of up to ten textboxes. Sometimes all the values show up sometimes some, sometimes none.

I would like to know how to have any empty field display a default image.
