So, I was making shortcuts for a text editor I made. The first 3, that I originally included were control-b control-i and control-u for the bold italics and underline. That worked fine. Recently, I added control-s and control-o for save and open. I don't know why, but once I press control-s or control-o once, the control key seems to stay "pressed", so whenever I press just b, u, i, s, or o, they activate the commands. Here's my

View 9 RepliesIn a VB.NET Winforms application, I have a form that contains both a datagridview and a textbox. I have some menu item entries that have shortcuts of Ctrl + X, Ctrl + C, and Ctrl + V that operate on the datagridview. However, these override the default cut, copy, and paste shortcuts for the textbox. How can I make the menu shortcuts only apply when the datagridview has focus?

I'm fairly new to VB.NET, and I'm working on a text editor with a tabbed interface. I deal with large text files. Should I have each tab / text document open up in a new thread or a process? I basically want the entire application to always run fast as the text editor is just one part of it. If I have several large text files open I don't want the rest of the application slowing down a bit.
View 2 RepliesI'm adding a method to find and select text in my text editor. Everything worked fine, including the ability to find all instances of the text. My problem came when I tried to make it more user-friendly (doesn't it always?). Originally I had only a menu item with a shortcut( Ctrl + F) which invoked an input box.
Then I added a textbox and a button (similar to that seen in a web browser's Find() method) that calls the method in the same manner as the Find/Replace menu option and displays the desired text in the textbox. Everything works fine except that the text is not selected. I have MessageBoxes displaying the values of required variables in 3 places (marked ***FOR DEBUG ONLY***) to make sure that no values are being changed, but all variables are the same. The method still locates the text, but it is not highlighted.
I think it could have something to do with which object has focus. (When I click the button, the selected text loses focus?). But if I click everything with the menu items, it still works...

I am using a RichTextBox as a text editor. Each chr() has its own color. I am using rtfText.SelectionColor with rtfText.SelectedText. I have to, or I think I have to, Use For/Next Loops with Do While Loops to search for each Chr() using Mid() & InStr(). Of course this works very well but, it is waaaaayyyyy to slow.Some of the files can be over 8MB. Is there a better way? Am I doing this right?

View 2 RepliesI have written a MDI Text Editor and I have written sub routines for print preview, cut, copy and so on, when testing my program, I click print preview when there are no documents active and the program crashes, the same happens with cut, copy, paste.
I know this is because I have not handled any error exceptions, the truth is im not sure how to.
I have got the code that makes print preview work with my mdi documents, but what code can I use or how can I add it to my existing sub routines to possibly show a message box saying something like "This Function Cannot Be Used With No Active Documents" something like that.
Could I use an If Statement? or Try, Catch, Block? - I am using a different computer as I am currently at work but if anyone needs the code I currently have for my sub routines.
