View 11 RepliesI was asked to develop a simple application to handle car inventory. Each car has a LOT of properties (about 130, like license plate number, type, was it serviced, etc.). Some of these properties are represented by bit data type in a database some are varchar.
The problem is that I need to provide search functionality for any of all these properties and any combination of them. This results in a search form with about 130 controls. I certainly do not want to put the SQL query together manually by checking the state of each and every control. To propagate the problem further I need to be able to search for partial strings as well (i.e. if the user enters "porsc" into the car brand field then all Porsches should be found).
I'm writing a social networking application in VB.NET, with a target userbase of 1-2 million users. All user data will be in memory in a dictionary of 'User' objects with properties such as Country, Region, Age etc exposed. I need to perform search against multiple user properties in memory - I'm not using SQL.What's the most performant way to implement a 'user search' against multiple properties?
View 1 RepliesIn my form, I have textbox + combobox to enter datas which are saved to ms access. I have search option too. Also i have DataGrid to show the result of the search. What I want now is, 1. To show the search result in the textbox/combox as well (I already am able to make the result show on datagrid)2. When there are multiple result showing on DataGrid, if i click on a particular result on DataGrid, let the textbox/combobox automatically loads the details of the one i clicked.
View 6 RepliesI have a RichTextBox where I expect 100 characters per line. Each line can start with the letter A, B, or C. I may have thousands of lines and most of them will start with the letter C.When the cursor is moved from one line to another and is placed on a "C" line, I need to be able to quickly locate the nearest "B" line above it. It may be hundreds of lines away. A loop to search for the "B" line using GetFirstCharIndexFromLine(x) is too slow.
The user may want to paste many lines into the textbox. If necessary, a mild wait after pasting is acceptable.Do you have any suggestions for a technique to accomplish what I need to do? Even just a high level suggestion like "use a linked list"
I am creating a machinists G-Code editor based on a couple of Rich Text Boxes. I am using one for the line numbering and synchronizing its scroll to the main RTB vScroll event. I've created a menu that populates a text line with a G-Code textual template for each command. The user presses the tab key to step through each input zone.

How to search richtextbox for a certain word?
View 5 RepliesI have a text box called "txtDescription" and listbox called "lstDetails" and a RichTextBox called "rttFullDes.
When the User inputs the search query into the description box(txtDescription) e.g "books" then it returns all the records that contains the word "books" and displays their Id in the listbox(lstDetails). When you click on the IDs it returns the full description in the Description box(rttFullDes)
This all works fine. But i want all the words to be hightlighted. i have got this code which i found.
Dim wordToFind As String = txtDescription.Text
Dim index As Integer = rttFullDes.Text.IndexOf(wordToFind)
While index <> -1

I am wanting to make a program in VB.NET that has many files.doc in a specific folderThis program has on top a textbox(txtSearch) with a button(btnSearch)under that this has two listbox(lstOption, lstResult), that are floating a left,one richtextbox(rtbDoc) that is floating a right.I want that when the user writes in txtSearch and click on button then the application will read all files, and find for this string.
View 14 RepliesI want to get a string from the richtextbox but here how it goes in programming for example i want to get all class/function and variable names in this given code.
Quote:
Private Function Processstring(ByVal strin As String) As String
Dim astrWords As String() = New String() {"parrot"}
Dim strOut As String = strin
Dim strWord As String
[code]....
how would i get the "processstring" by getting it after the word function?
Here's the situation: I've got a form that has
- RichTextBox
- OpenButton (to load RTF file)
- SaveButton (to save RTF file after editing)
- Textbox (for search phrase)
- SearchButton
- ExitButton
- 2 RadioButtons (WholeWord and MatchCase search)
All of them are working just the way I want them to except search features; I don't know how to write them properly. At the moment, they search and highlight only the first word they encounter. E.g. say I search for word "the" in the document, only the first "the" it encounters is highlighted. The rest is just untouched.
I understand this is because I've only got few lines of simple code as follows
If rtfText.Find(txtSearch.Text, RichTextBoxFinds.WholeWord) = -1 Then
MessageBox.Show("No results returned. Please try again.", "No matching results.", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
End If
I did try a few other snippets I found on the Internet including While loop but they didn't work as I wanted them to, and I couldn't understand them either. What I want is, which ever search option is used, when the matching result is found; it will highlight that word and when I click it again it will move onto another word. If I keep clicking, it will highlight the same words (but located in different areas) throughout the whole document and at the end, it will send back to the first matching word. Just like Adobe Reader search.
i'm trying to make a search using richtextbox.find which is both MatchCase and Reverse. how can i do this?

changing the way the site search is done from just search a phrase as one string to searching a phrase "as multiple words" search. For example, if I search "cute puppy" right now, it will search it for "cute puppy" as phrase and won't match just "cute" and "puppy". The way the search is implemented is by passing a search phrase to a Stored Procedure in SQL Server.So now, I need to change to site search so when "cute puppy" is searched, it will search two words.... "cute" and "puppy" instead of just "cute puppy". Below is how the store procedure is implemented
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
