View 9 RepliesI am trying to add to items to a combobox by using the "enter" key. It does work when I add the first item, but if I manually clear the box and add another items it does not get added to the list.
(1) I click in the combobox and type "hello" and press the "enter" key
(2) I click on the dropdown arrow and see that "hello" is in the list
(3) I select "hello" in the box and erase it, item is still in the list
(4) I type "goodbye" in the box and press the "enter" key
(5) "hello" is still in the list but "goodbye" is not
Here is the code:
Private Sub CopyrightCombo_Keypress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles CopyrightCombo.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Microsoft.VisualBasic.ChrW(Keys.Return) Then
[code].....
if I comment the if/end if line and type "hello" the items added to the combobox list are: "h", "he", "hel", "hell", "hello" wich makes sens since the add items is run on every keypress? I know that my commands for adding items is good, I know that my keypress event is handled properly but not when I specify using the "enter" key.
I am using the Event Handler below for the Enter Key Press Event, it is running when ever any of the keys is pressed. This is not so much a problem when the app. is running, unnecessary yes. It is giving me problems when ever I am Debugging using Breakpoints. How can I change the Handler so it only runs when the Enter Key is Pressed, doing away with the If statement?
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Chr(Keys.Enter) Then
'Different code blocks will run here depending on what
'TextBox or Label is selected.
End If
End Sub
I have been out of VB since VB 6, but am back into it to write a basic app. I have created a listbox and am able to add data to it from a textbox via a command button. However, I want to give the user the option to simply press the enter key after they have entered the info the textbox, instead of clicking on the command button. I tried calling the function the command button is using from the "ENTER" event on the textbox, but all that does is execute the function when I click on the textbox? I'm sure this is very simple. What am I missing?
View 5 RepliesI'm building a Dialog in Winforms. It's got the two OK and Cancel buttons that are there when you create it, which is what I want. In this dialog I also have a TextBox and a Sub (coding in VB.NET) that handles its KeyPress event. I need stuff to happen when the 'Enter' key is pressed. Now, I've done such KeyPress handling times and times again. This situation, however, is different, because as soon as 'Enter' key is pressed, the dialog automatically assumes you're pressing the 'OK' button, returns a result and closes.
In both the Designer and the actual form when running the application, the OK button is highlight, which means is has some kind of a focus (for the lack of a better term) at all times. How can I disable this feature of a dialog? When I debug my code, pressing enter does not even get to the sub handling the KeyPress event. It simply closes the dialog and returns the result, therefore I can't really step through the code and see what happens behind the scenes. To restate the question, how can I disable this functionality?
move the focus to the next TextBox (don't worry about the Case 38, 58 etc too much I).
My Code:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'(Unrelated code here)
AddHandler Form1.KeyDown, AddressOf EnterkeyHandler 'Would like to understand this better

I have a problem opening a new form with ShowDialog when pressing the AcceptButton on the first form. Consider the following example

I have a Telerik Radgrid containing all the valid usernames and passwords that can be used to unlock functionnalities on my web page. The password is encrypted, so you have to click the row to decrypt and show the actual password. All usernames and passwords can be changed by an admin When the admin presses [ENTER] to submit the new username/password combination (instead of pressing the submit button), the new combination is actually submitted (which is fine).

I am trying to do an keypress event that only allows numbers, backspace, and enter. I have the part that only allows numbers
If Not (IsNumeric(e.KeyChar)) Then
e.Handled = True
End If
I need to know how to know what keychar the backspace and enter are.
I have two issues. The first is that I want to make a textbox scrolling similar to how credits scroll. I don't want it to move on the form, just to scrolling the text down a line/pixel. I thought I could do it with the "Lines" element, but I'm not exactly sure how to execute it.
The other problem is with my flash screen. Right now I have it set so when a button is click, it goes onto the main form. I don't want to use the button but rather have it so if Enter is pressed at any time, it'll go to the main form. All the solutions I've tried to use involve the "e.Keycode" code, but for some reason its unavailable.
I have a keyboard handler for my combobox1:
Private sub Combobox1_Keydown(....yaddda) handles combobox1.keydown
if e.keycode = keys.enter then
msgbox(combobox1.text)
end if
end sub
this always displays an empty message box,I need the value of the combo box before the enter was pressed, apparently the enter key empties the combobox1.text.
how can I detect if press Enter in the Textbox Change event and not in Textbox Keypress?
View 3 Replies[code] I want to check checkbox and change color on one label and enter date on another.Then I want to uncheck the checkbox, restore the color on one label and clear the other..This works perfectly but only after the initial check. On the first check the correspsonding labels are handled properly but all the other labels are changed also, ie. the color changes on one set and the other set cleared.I can see the problem is in the Else If statements but can't understand why if the coding iswrong it works ok after the first check.

I've tried countless other methods... none seem to actually get the checkbox ON/OFF value in vb.net.
I've got a form with parent-child setup. The parent displays name and other demographic info.The child displays multiple addresses, one row at a time. There can only be one primary address for a name and this is designated by a checkbox at the top of the child form.If the user wants to change the primary address to another address,then they find the other address and click on the checkbox.The form checks the other addresses and if one is found that is designated as primary,the user is warned that one already exists and prompts them to change it.
So for example, a name has 2 addresses, the 2nd being the primary address.The user wants to change the 1st address to be primary.They click on the Primary Address checkbox for the 1st address.A warning displays that there is already an address listed as primary.The user then answers the prompt to change the 1st address to the primary address.The checkbox for the 2nd address will be unchecked and the checkbox will be checked for the 1st address.My problem is getting the checkbox unchecked for the 2nd address.If I close the form and reopen, then the checkbox is unchecked.How do I refresh the checkbox for the 2nd address?Here is the code I'm using to find if an address has already been marked as primary:[code]......
