I'm trying to highlight the text when the textbox gets focus, like an address bar of browsers. I'm using this code so far:
[Code]...
And it works fine, but I'd like to do the same thing on the click event. Here's my problem. The same code of enter event in text box, apparently doesn't work on mouse down and mose up.

Here's my code snippet:
Private Sub txtLogin2_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtLogin2.KeyPress
'// Ceci empêche l'utilisateur d'écrire des caractères ASCII ou même des espaces..
e.Handled = Not Char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar)
End Sub
It works fine and dandy except for one issue... the only way to delete text in the textbox using this is to highlight and hit DEL... But what if I wanted to simply back space... Any suggestions?

Is there a way to enter text in a text box programatically, without the "changed" event being fired? Or do I have to use a flag to indicate that nothing should be done when the text is changed by the program?

Can I let my program select an item in a listbox based on a string (f.e. textbox.text)?So basicly, if an item in my listbox containst a certain string (text from a textbox), it should select that item..
I've been searching for a while, but nothing is doing the job.. Could anyone give me an example of this?

I have a drop down menu, and based on which item is selected, I call a web service and then dynamically create some text boxes.The first time I drop down the menu and select an item, it works perfectly, and the text boxes are created and populated dynamically. However, the next time I drop down the menu (after the first postback), and select something different..fter the second postback, the original values remain in the textboxes.

This is my first post on this forum, so please excuse me if I'm posting wrong. Anyway, I've been having an issue that I've never seen before and is driving me nut, I have a windows form on which I have placed many textboxes that display information from a MS SQL database. The user can then change these values and hit a "save" button which writes the changes to the database. I also have certain textboxes that with the "on leave" event (after a user enters a possible new value) trigger a method that recalculates some of the other fields based on the new information. Hopefully that all makes sense.
So the problem is, when I run through this "recalc" method the first time around, it doesn't update those textboxes that it's supposed to. However, when I put a breakpoint in and debug through it, the debugger shows it putting in the correct values into the textboxes. It's just as soon as the method is done, it puts them back to blank, or whatever they were before
'Rebind stuff here
lblCabinets.Text = curMfg.ToString("c")
txtCabinets.Text = curMfg.ToString("c")

Is there a way to find out if the "TextChanged" event is fired because the user is typing into a textbox or the programmer called myTextBox.Text = "something"? I don't want to react when the user is typing each letter into the textbox so I am using the "Validated" event to catch when the user is done so I can react. The problem is I don't have a way to catch when the programmer does "myTextbox.Text = "something". The only way I know to catch changes there is to use TextChanged but then I don't want to be reacting when the user is typing each letter into the textbox.

Im currently faced with a problem. I have a textbox whereby the user would enter a word, my program would then match the word within a text. If there is a match, the program would display the word and the line that contains the matched word in the listbox. My problem is I want to highlight that particular word when the line is displayed in the listbox but I could not find any syntax that could perform that function.

I'm using a WebBrowser control and I'd like to highlight text that the user enters. It's supposed to be kind of like what you get from Ctrl+F in Firefox. I initially tried this:
Me.webHelp.DocumentText = Me.strOriginal.Replace(Me.txtSearch.Text, "<span style=""background-color:#44F; color:#FFF"">" & Me.txtSearch.Text & "</span>")
However, if the user types "body" it replaces every instance of "body", even ones inside tags, which hoses the HTML. How could I separate the page text from the tags(and everything else) and just do a replace on that while maintaining the integrity of the HTML?

I am currently making a Syntax Highlighter.How can I highlight certain text inside a RichTextBox ? I am Currently Using This Code :
Public Function Highlight(ByVal highlightcolor As String, ByVal ParamArray WordsToFind() As Object)
'Loop through all the words you specified:
For i As Integer = 0 To UBound(WordsToFind)[code].....
but it will only Highlight 1 of the word I set / Change the whole text into the selected colour
Example :
'I wanted to Highlight "Hello"
'I put this code into RichTextBox_TextChanged:
Highlight("blue","Hello")
'And It will Only highlight The First "Hello" inside my Text :
'Hello my name is XXX, Hello
And, can I Highlight text between certain text / after certain text
Example :
'Highlight After the '
Or :
<!-- Highlight between these 2 tags -->

I've got a textbox and a label. In the label, I've got the string "alberto". What I want to do is, I want the charactes I write in the textbox to highlight in the label, so, for example, when I write "al" in the textbox, the first two characters will be highlighted.
So, the real question is: how can i highlight only some characters in the label instead of the whole text?
