basically i am doing something like:
vb
TextRenderer.DrawText(g, mc_Text, MyBase.Font, New Rectangle(Padding.Left, Padding.Top, MyBase.Width), MyBase.ForeColor, TextFormatFlags.WordBreak)
And want to get an array of lines where the text breaks with since TextFormatFlags.WordBreak has been set
I'm using some code to enable me to render rotated text with the TextRenderer.DrawText method. (By default, DrawText can only copy a straight forward x and y transform from a graphics object).
The code (C#) is from: connect.microsoft.com. See below for a VB conversion.The code takes a graphics object, creates a device context and copies the transform matrix from the graphics object. It works, but I'd like, also, to set the TextRenderingHint, so I tried:
<DllImport("gdiplus.dll", CharSet:=CharSet.Unicode, SetLastError:=True, ExactSpelling:=True)> _
Public Shared Function GdipSetTextRenderingHint(ByVal graphics As HandleRef, ByVal textRenderingHint As System.Drawing.Text.TextRenderingHint) As Integer End Function And then after the SetClip statement, I place: GdipSetTextRenderingHint(hDC, someHint) This gives me a memory access violation error, so I think I should be using something other than hDC as the argument.
I can get it to work by creating the device context from the original graphics object, and then creating another graphics object from the device context. I then set the hint on the new graphics object. This seems a bit convoluted so I was wondering if it was possible through interop.

Drawing text on a picbox I notice if the picbox has a border style set then the TextRenderer.DrawText rectangle area needs to be adjusted slightly otherwise text may be drawn very near the picbox borders and the text doesn't look as clean, but I'm not sure what those offsets should be, I hard coded them in, see code under "' area to draw". btw, the code draws the first word of text in bold and then the other words as regular. 'One button, One picture box needed.

I want to use the added functionality (for word wrap etc) of the TextRenderer.DrawText method.... but this does not seem to work correctly on the Graphics object in the PrintPage event in the PrintDocument Object and does not take into consideration any transformations that have been applied. Does anyone have a replacement way or workaround for this?

What is the best way to read a line from a file and break up into seperate fields.
I tried using substring in this loop but i get the same value for refnum in each iteration
I want the first 24 characters in refnum[cod]e...
I'm not getting this at all I suppose. I've tried so many variations to split the lines into individual fields and I still cannot get it to do what I want.
I have to get lines from a sequential file which read like:
CODE:
And load them to a listbox like this:
CODE:
With the ID # padleft(10, "0") and the commas eliminated, and only the Last Name, First Name and Middle Initial showing.
This is my mess of a code (it is just one of many variations)

I've got the ID field right but the rest just shows up as it is in the file commas and all.

I need to add line break after the following in the textbox.

I've tried so far 'ControlChars.CrLf', ..., 'vbNewLine', 'vbCrLf', ... at the end.
I have written a simple script to get a bunch of lines from a text file (they will be filenames eventually) which are split by new lines and puts each one into an array..

If My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists("C:MenuFiles.txt") Then

The only thing I can do for now is either use the substring function to remove the first character from all array values after 0 but I don't like that because it's messy and what if the split "works" as I want it to one one of the lines and knocks of the first character when I don't want it to.
I'm trying to create an array, but I do not want all data from the textbox to be inputted. The textbox will look something like this:

[Code]...
Currently I'm only able to store the whole content into one variable, would like to store the content line by line in arrays.
I have a line of data that represent a data import. When the import is done, I would like to keep that exsisiting line, and add another line for the next import. So I have a display of mulitiple lines, showing multiple Imports.So this is one I have for the first section, it loops through the data so you see the rows incrementing
TextBox1.Text = clsDatRow.iFirstVal.ToString + " ROWS:" + iCountRows.ToString + " " + Date.Now.ToString
TextBox1.Refresh()
Now, I can I keep the line of data, and add a new line so for the next import, it does the same thing. It ried vbnewline, but it just clears that line, it doesn't move down to a next line.

I am adding line entries in a .ini file. The problem is, I am creating duplicate lines in the file, which I do not want to do. I searched this issue online, and the consensus is to use an array, loop through for duplicates and create a new file. However, being so new at this and teaching myself how to code no less, I am at a dead end. This is not a school project, it is something I am doing for work on my own time. I have all of my code done for the program except for this last step.
