View 1 RepliesI started learning vb 2010 over the internet for about an a week and got stuck on this assignment that I got from the internet
1.Add one textbox so the user can enter a distance measured in feet. Add labels as needed.
2.Add a button control which when clicked is converts the feet to meters (1 foot = 0.3048 meters), accepting floating point values and preserving them (no integer conversions) and display the output as shown next. 1 Points
3.Display the conversion result using a MessageBox (not msgbox) using this format: x feet is y meters, where x is the value entered and y is the result of the conversion to meters with up to 2 decimal places only. Then show an extra line of "Would you like to start another distance conversion?" and make the No button the default in the message popup and display the question icon.
4. If the user chooses Yes, cleanup the controls as in the Reset button. 0.5 Point
5.If the user clicks no, ask in another MessageBox if the user wants to quit.
6.If the user chooses to quit, close the window, otherwise no action is required.
Private Sub TrackBar1_ValueChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles Trackbar.ValueChanged
txtYears.Text = Trackbar.Value
End Sub
This is the code for the trackbar. At the moment as the user moves the trackbar it inserts the value into the textbox. I want this to work in reverse also. user inputs value into text box, trackbar moves.
I know it is possible as my professors program does this.

View 2 RepliesI may be doing this wrong but I want to call a sub when the user presses enter on a textbox. The sub then shows a window in dialog mode. When I close that window, the computer makes a ding sound. Why is that? Is there a better way for detecting enter being presses on a textbox and not getting that ding?
If e.KeyChar = vbCr Then
LookupItem()
End If
I'm trying to work out how to detect if the user has pressed an f key I have this so far:
Private Sub Form1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyPress
Label1.Text = e.KeyChar
End Sub
This detects when the user presses a character key and outputs it via Label1.text, but it doesnt work on all keys?
