I want to control a textbox to only allow numbers, backspace and a certain length. Ive tried with the IsNumeric function but I cant seem to get it to work.

Here's my

View 9 Replieshows to make a textbox accept only numbers? and ".". i tried looking in the Help, couldnt find something relating to it. i guess it's something to do with the keys pressed on the keyboard so if i could determine and reject certain keys (anything thats not a number) it could work.
View 6 RepliesI'm fairly new to VB.net (self taught) and was just wondering if someone out there could help me out with some code. I'm not trying to do anything to invovled, just have a textbox that takes numeric value from 1 to 10. I don't want it to take a string or any number above 10. If some types a word or character an error message will appear, telling them to enter a valid number. This is what I have, obviously it's not great as I am having problems.

I am trying to make a textbox accept on the numbers 1-4 & the backspace key. The numbers part is working fine, but it will not delete the number once it's inputted into the box using backspace. Here's my existing code:
Private Sub txtCode_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtCode.KeyPress 'allows the textbox to only accept 1-4 & backspace If (e.KeyChar < "1" OrElse e.KeyChar > "4" _ AndAlso e.KeyChar = vbBack) Then e.Handled = True End
I have an assignment that requires me to edit some code, I already did most of it but I need to make txtState control to only accept letters and the backspace key. I was never taught how to do this and I only know how to do it with numbers. Here is my code with everything done, including the format I was taught to do keypress in with numbers and backspace. Can someone show me how to replace those numbers pr whatever to work with letters?

My Ciphering program, Ciphers words from one text box to another one. A letter is put in front of each word to tell the length of the that word. Every character that gets entered into the text box will change the outputs text box. I am going to use HELLO as an example. The Number one, will represent the Original text, the number Two will represent the Ciphered text. [Code]
As you see, the first letter is the length of the word, as I said before. The other letters or gotten by getting the position of the letter in the alphabet and adding it with the length of the word. H H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and so far, the length of the word is one. So you do 8 + 1 which is 8. AI That is where I got the I in this right here. HE H is the 8 letter in the alphabet, and now the word length is 2, so 8 + 2 = 10. The 10 letter in the alphabet is J, so the I in AI turns to J.
E is the 5 letter in the alphabet. 5 + 2 = 7. The 7 letter in the alphabet is G. That is where the G comes from. BJG The B is the second letter in the alphabet, and there is 2 letters in the word.
In order for me to keep track of each word, I store each word in a dictionary. That is the only method that I could get to work while using the word length character (The character in front of each word)
My big problem is if I want to backspace and go back for it to edit that word that it took a letter of.
My program know that there is a new word because when it recognizes that the selected character = " ", it creates a new add in the dictionary. Here is an example of 2 words that are ciphered.
HELLO THERE
EMJQQT EYMJWJ
I split it at the T to show you the 2 different words, and that the first word is ciphered the exact same as it was in the example at the top of the page.
Now I am pretty sure that I could get it to edit the most frequent word, but I know I would not be able to edit the past words because it seems that when I add something to the dictionary, it stays local as the variables, and not as new for its self. [Code]
That is not even close to exactly what the code looks like, but it is close I guess. Redundant, I know.What it does is for that word, each Letter is getting added to the Dictionary and is called by the number 1. So when H is typed, H gets added to item 1. When E is typed, item 1 is now HE, and so on for that whole word.
When a character = " ", a new dictionary is added but adding one to DicNum, and then repeating the process. What I have found out is that it will not keep the first dictionary, and come to think of it I only think that it keeps the most recent letter that was added to the dictionary.
The day that I was working on this I was searching for a while on how to use join, but found nothing. My question is, is there a better way or more efficient way to cipher each word and then edit the word that is being edited by backspace? Lets leave out the part where Dictionary1 and Dictionary2 or not need. [Code]
