View 6 RepliesI have a Web Forms textbox in a gridview and I want to higlight the text on a button click. textbox.select(start,end) doesn't work. Here is the code:
Dim row As GridViewRow = TryCast(DirectCast(sender, ImageButton).Parent.Parent, GridViewRow)
Dim txtdays As TextBox = row.Cells(2).FindControl("txtDays")
Dim lbldays As Label = row.Cells(2).FindControl("lblDays")

Private Sub txtLogin2_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtLogin2.KeyPress
'// Ceci empêche l'utilisateur d'écrire des caractères ASCII ou même des espaces..
e.Handled = Not Char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar)
End Sub

I'm using the code below to select the text within my textbox during the mousedown event. It works great when the HeaderChanged sub is not called. The problem is, the HeaderChanged sub will always be called on the textbox's focus event.If the user clicks the far right portion of the textbox the whole text value will be selected (like it should), but if the user clicks near the left side of the textbox only a portion of the text will be selected.

For some sort of reason, which I can't seem to spot, this fails and I get a #Name? error. When I tried to do this, I use pretty much the same code in another place in my form; the only difference is the "cbo" and the names of my txt and alike.
