Make The Textboxes Only Accept Letters A, B, C, Or D As Answers From The User?
Nov 15, 2011
I'm having trouble with the Try...Catch code. I'm trying to make the textboxes only accept letters A, B, C, or D as answers from the user. I'm also having trouble matching the two arrays. I wanted it to be like if textbox1 is A then it is correct but in a loop. Please take a look at my code.

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?

Using a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn, the goal is to make the ComboBoxes accept user's new items and also the possibility of choosing items that are already present.I'm aware of using EditingControlShowing event of the DataGridView to change the DropDownStyle of the DataGridViewComboBoxEditingControl at run time to allow this, but I'm wondering if this can be done at a lower level.
What I'm doing now is extending DataGridViewComboBoxColumn, DataGridViewComboBoxCell and DataGridViewComboBoxEditingControl, hoping to change the EditingControl's DropDownStyle in the moment I instantiate it. So far, no luck.The debugger shows the right assignment is being executed, but nonetheless, the DropDownStyle is popping at the EditingControlShowing (using the event for debugging purposes) as DropBoxList, not DropBox, which is the intent.
Here follow the classes:
Public Class DataGridViewComboBoxColumnALT Inherits System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewComboBoxColumn Public Sub New()

Quick question here about how to get it to accept capital and lowercase letters. I am running code that has certain Customer Types such as "T". It returns different information for that customer. There are only 3 types "T", "R", and "C". The rest return the default information. When I enter "t" into the textbox it returns the default information, not the information for "T". How do I go about getting it to accept "T" or "t"?

I'm attempting to learn VB in college. My first project is to create a program in Small Basic and then write it in Visual Basic. I'm looking for the equivalent of TextWindow.ReadNumber() from Small Basic in Visual Basic. I want to force the user to input a number not letters. I'm writing this program for the Console. Is this possible? During my testing I entered a word instead of numbers and the program crashed.

Im developing an app at the moment where standard letters need to be generated to be sent out to customers. With the customers details then filled in as you would expect... name, title, address, etc. This is an app ontop of a SQL db. The way i envisioned this working was to send the customer details to another form that had a crystal report in, and send the info via a SQL query, just as you might get a grid view to open with a query.
Thing is im struggling with it, getting the query to work especially. Ive built the report and put the relevant field place holders in there, but i cant get it to open with just the one customers info in there, it gets every customer and builds a report several thousand pages long! This is because of the "command" thats on the report that i stuck in there on a temp basis while i designed the thing.
However i want the the report to open via a button on another form, and then fill the report with the customers details (using the customer ID number on the form the button was clicked) Since im struggling with this so much, im actually wondering if im going the best way about this? Are there better ways of generating a standard letter that the end user can then view, check it, and hit print?
I've got a little function that just changes empty and null strings to "null":
Public Function CatchString(ByVal stringValue As String) As String If stringValue = "" Or stringValue Is Nothing Or stringValue Is DBNull.Value Then Return "null"[code].....
I added the bit about DBNull because sometimes it gets null values from a database. This doesn't work, though, because it won't take DBNull as a parameter.I tried changing the stringValue parameter from a string to an object, but then the If statement gives this error:
Quote: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.How do I make the function accept DBNull as a parameter?
