TextBox has an event for TextChanged that occurs after the Text property has been changed. I need my control to raise an event before the Text property is actually changed to validate data. If it is valid the Text can be changed, if it is not valid the Text does not get changed.
Here's what I tried:
Public Class TextChangingEventArgs
Inherits System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs
Private p_sNewValue As String
[Code].....
This works for programmatically setting the Text value of the BetterTextBox control, but it does not work when you are typing into the text box.

I want to type the characters from right to left (to behave as a right alignment). But I am not supposed to use the Right Alignment property or the RighttoLeft property of a text box.For example, I want to enter the characters of a string from right and each character should shift one space left so that the user can enter another character after that.

I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express to develop my windows application.
I am developing an application wherein I need a functionality similar to the outlook email address.
In outlook, we are able to enter multiple email addresses in "To" address box. When typing first few chars of an email, the AutoComplete functionality displays the list of possible email addresses. Either we can select from the list or we can continue typing. As and when we type email addresses, the AutoComplete functionality shows the list of possible email addresses for every email address that we type in the textbox (if anything is there). I am trying to implement this functionality in my application
I found there is a AutoComplete functionality for textbox. below is the code
[Code]....
I know that the AutoComplete is only for one word and not for multiple.
But How to implement the AutoComplete functionality for multiple word in a textbox?

I am trying to assign a dataset to the TAG property of a textbox control in my application. The code seems to do the assignment without any error but I cant see the property TAG name or the assigned value using quickwatch etc. etc. The TAG property name does show in the design window.
Is this property useable in my version (academic 2002 version 7.0) or does the TAG and any assigned value it holds not show in quickwatch. I can only find 1 reference which seems to suggest the TAG property is not supported in early versions, but would prefer a definitive answer.
I want to give the user the ability to modify the font characteristics of a textbox on a form, using buttons. In the button click_event, I can successfully have the user change the font color to red directly:

Basically I'm writing a little piece of photo-editing software and I would like the user to be able to write whatever they want as a caption for the photo. VB then writes that text in a blank space created under the picture. Pretty straightforward, I've got it printing the text and it can adjust for height differences (i.e. multiple lines of text, smaller fonts, etc.).
My issues arise in the horizontal direction, I cannot make the Richtextbox large enough to represent the width of the photos (Some pictures have dimensions several thousand pixels wide and most monitors cannot display that many...) so I have used horizontal scroll bars (wordwrap off) to allow the user to scroll across and see all the text. Now what I would like to do is to set a limit to how much text the user can enter on a line (based on pixels to accommodate for various fonts/sizes) and it seems to me that setting the .RightMargin to just a little less than the picture dimension (to allow for padding) should do just that. [Code]
I'm trying to use the SelectionStart property in a textbox (VS 2003, SP1). The build doesn't flag use of the property, and the app runs, but the SelectionStart code just doesn't work: Textbox1.SelectionStart = 20000 (just want cursor to go to the end of box, and there are never that many characters in box)
The object browser reveals that the SelectionStart property is not included in the System.Windows.Forms textbox control I'm using. SelectionLength is there, but not SelectionStart. The control is inherited from TextBoxBase, which does contain the property -- it just isn't translated into theTextBox control. MultiLine is set to true.
i need textbox to have the property auto-size when i write anything more than its size textbox.width became bigger in order to display the letters or the digits is it possible ?
I have a windows form which contains a textbox.I have a loop in my code doing some farly intensive work. In the middle of the loop I want to update my text box.text property on the form to let my users see some simple progress.
I have created a web application and have a number of textboxes on a web page. I have created a new class with carries out a number of calculations and if there is no text in the box it enters 0.00 so I dont get a null exception.
i am struggling with something quite elementary and simple. I am creating 200 dynamic textboxes with the following code :
[Code]...
Now, I need to restrict the user to type a maximum of 5 characters inside. The MaxLength property is supposed to help me with that, but the user is still allowed to type more than five characters!Later on, after I have crossed this bridge, I'll need to allow a minimum of five as well - so that the user will always be able to enter only five characters inside each textbox. Another problem in the future will be to allow only numeric digits. These are product codes, whic are always numeric, and always 5 characters in length
I'm trying to write a Database manager in VB (2010) that updates a SQL database that compiles and summarizes my financial records. The code works, but I'm having issues with one exception that I think I understand, but can't circumvent. I've built an I/O form that enters a series of purchases and sales into a temporary datatable. After review of the list, the program connects to the database and executes the SQL. That all works and isn't a problem.
I'm having some trouble with a class that uses the ToolStripControlHost, I have to create a label and a label beside the textbox, this works, the problem now and I can not access the property. Text of textbox (txt). the class to this:

I seem to be having a problem binding the visibility property of a textbox to a database value using the advanced binding property.
I found this article (BUG: Inconsistent behavior when you bind the Visible property of a Windows Form control to a Boolean field) stating there is a bug in some older versions of the .net framework.
Is there any predefined property by which I can set the DisplayFormat/DisplayStyle of a textbox? Suppose I want a textbox to hold the actual value 888888888888.88 and show it formatted as 888,888,888,888.88. In short it should hold 'Double' data type value and show it with thousand separators and decimal places upto two digits. If text is cleared from the textbox, it should have 0 as value and 0.00 as displayed value.
When i am assigning text in to textbox that time the selection start property is zero so the cursor(caret) is moving to first location of the textbox.
Code Sample
Consider that the textbox already have text like 'Hello Developers' Dim CurPosition As Integer = TextBox1.SelectionStart 'CurPosition=11 (i.e) SelectionStart is 11 (cursor position)'
[Code]....
so when i am executing this code the cursor move up and down
