How do I easily navigate textboxes contained within a form.My form has a lot of textboxes so I don't particularly want to make a KeyDown event for each.I think I need to group the controls and handle it that way somehow with their TabIndex.I'm lost without the control array of VB6 and can't find anything to show me how to do it.

I have been trying to add First Previous Next Last buttons to my windows form (visual studio 2008), everything I have tried or found does not work.
I would like for my program to navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines and multiple url links inside of it. I know how to make the webbrowser1.navigate via textbox1.text with multiple lines, however I want my webbrowser to navigate to each url every 1-1.5 seconds once button1 is clicked. Yes, my webbrowser1 will navigate to the specified urls via the textbox1.text (multilines) with a button click, but I need the webbrowser1 to navigate in a order sequence from top to bottom of Textbox1.text (multiplelines) every 1 second. Here is the current code that I have to navigate via multilined textbox1.text control in order sequence:

I'm brand new to VB, though I have some experience in C++. I have a 9x9 grid of many textboxes in my form, and I am trying to output the position of each textbox, as well as its contents, to a text file. For example, if the textbox (3,4) contains 5, I would like to output 3 4 5 to a file, and so on for each text box. Also, I really have no way of knowing which textbox is which, they are only called TextBox1, TextBox2, etc.

View 5 RepliesI created a Fuction in the module in order to clear all textboxes in a form.
The clear button does work but it still displays an error at the bottom saying :

I am trying to write code to clear all textboxes on a form automatically.
I have entered the following code:
For each ctrl as Control in me. controls
If TypeOf ctrl is TextBox then
ctrl.text = ""
end if
Next
The form has various controls on it, including textboxes, buttons, and others. When I run the above code 'ctrl' only seems to find buttons but not textboxes.
I have a form that has a tabcontrol (TabControl1) and within that tab control is another one (TabControl2). I have textboxes on the main form as well as in each of the tabcontrols.
In my savebutton event I have the following code:
If CheckIfDirtyAfterLock = "Just Unlocked" Then
CheckIfDirty(Me.Controls)
Else
[Code]....
What happens is that it records those textboxes that have changed and writes it to addendum.text. The problem is that it is only capturing those textboxes on my main form and none of the textboxes that get changed within TabControl1 or TabControl2.
I tried this code but it is throwing error.
Private Sub ClearText
Dim ctl As Control
' Clear all the TextBoxes on the form.
For Each ctl In Controls
If TypeOf ctl Is TextArea Then ctl.Text = ""
Next
End Sub
I'm dynamically creating x number of textboxes on my form. Once I have done this and the user has done some stuff with them they need to be able to remove all of these textboxes to start again. I've written this code to go in a button, but it only gets rid of two of the textboxes at a time rather than them all in one button click (so it takes like 8 button presses to clear all of the textboxes on the form). Can anyone see the problem?

I'm using VB 2005 and have an Edit - Entry form with Textboxes and several Comboboxes. I populate the Comboboxes with Arraylists as shown below. I populate a datatable with the Employee data from my SQL Server. I assign the BindingSource1.Datasource to my Datatable then add Databindings to the ComboControls.

Actually I am trying to get a function to validate all the textboxes in my form. At the moment, my code look like:
Private Sub Textbox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Textbox1.textchanged
If Textbox1.Text.Length = 0 Then
MsgBox("TextBox1 is empty. Please enter something", msgboxstyle.okonly)
Textbox1.Focus()
Endif
End Sub
I have to write the same line of code for each textbox to check if it is not empty and was thinking of using a function that will be called and check each textbox in my form.

I have 5 text boxes that I need to perform several operations on as a group, named tb1, tb2, tb3, tb4, tb5.for example, if I want to retrieve the text from each one and process it, I believe I can use the text box or control collection and test each textbox to see if it's name starts with tb, check to see if it has text in it, and then process the text.I think I would use something like for each textbox in..... to test the collection but not yet comfortable with collections and this seems like a good place to start learning how to use them.
View 6 RepliesI hav a datagridview,which looks like this:ID

i doubleclick a row,lets say highlited row...then this row value should appear to another form which hav 4 textboxes ( id , name, marks and grade).
I have a form with many different textboxes on it. The form is used to Edit the data already in a databound table. At design time I set my Databindings.text to the appropriate columns.
During form load I check the values in the bound column for null values. If the column value is null, I set the textbox.text property to a descriptive prompt like "enter telephone #" or enter city. I also use databinding.remove to remove the databinding so that the desriptive prompts don't wind up in the database.
Here is the code I use to remove the databinding.
For Each Panels In Me.Controls
PBox = TryCast(Panels, Panel)

.Tag2Defaultphase is a custom property I have defined which holds the default descriptive prompt. If the user enter a value into the textbox I then wish to add the bind back so that when I updateall with the tableadapter the value will be transferred back to the appropriate bound column.
Here is my code for that:

create form with 5 column system of textboxes?
View 1 RepliesI created a form with 2 labels 2 textboxes and a button. Basically it is a login from. When I launch the form it shows the blinking cursor in the 1st textbox(this is ok) but when i try to type nothing happens. Once i click the form(not the textbox-textbox works too but wanted to note it was the form) it works. I have tried doing textbox1.focus(). I have tried doing the form.focus(). Neither were successful. It may have nothing to do with focus but it seems to be that to me.
