Richtextbox :: Clearing All RichTextBoxes From A Form?
Nov 14, 2009I have a form with 25 RichTextBoxes. I need to clear them all when a user presses a button.I think it's something to do with: Me.Controls.Clear but I'm not sure.

View 4 RepliesOk, so I done some reading and searching and I am confused on what is the best way to print my form that has 2 labels, 2 richtextboxes on it on get it to print to a 3x5 card or 4x7. I had this built in vb6 and used a picturebox but that method doesn't work in .NET. So what is easier, printform or printdocument or DrawString. I tried the printform but I don't want the whole form printed. Also read about DrawString as well. Honestly, I am confused on all of it.
View 12 RepliesI have written text to a form using DrawString but now want to clear the form and reset the "next" writing position to the top of the form display area. BTW This is NOT a text box!Using Me.ResetText() clears the text from the form but does not move the position back to the top. The next line is written immediately below where the last line was previously displayed!
View 2 RepliesIs there a way such that I could reset/clear the values of the controls in my form no matter what type of control they are, can be controls from control suites like Janus and/or ComponentOne?
I am thinking perhaps I could somehow get their base control types?Here is my current implementation but somehow I need to add ElseIf for the other control types.

Ok so I have an app using sqldatareader to fill a form that I have called frmInventory I have a lookup formula that access a sql database and looks up txtInventory and txtItem information. Say I want to lookup txtInventory and get all my relevant infor, then i close the form and lookup by txtItem, all of the txtInventory items are still on the form and have not cleared. I made a clearform formula to clear the data but it keeps repopulating. Is this because i have an open connection somehwere. i close all my datareaders and dispose of all my connections so why is this information still reapearing after i close the form and reopen? Ive tried everything:
using
end using
if statements you name it.
I am creating a text editor like notepad. Well its an advance type because it is a tabbed notepad type. It saves html files.
I only created tabcontrol on the design time named TabControl1. the tabpages and the richtextbox are created on the form load and when adding tabs. [code]...
I have 2 forms. The 1 is named frmMain. inside of it is a Richtextbox named RTB.
The other form is named frmInsert. Inside of it is a Richtextbox named rtbtext.[code]..
I have two rich text boxes.I have to compare both the text boxes and highlight it, if any difference is there.Which is similar like compare and merge option in msword.How can i do it in vb.net(vs2005)?
View 2 RepliesHow do I combine richtextboxes? Currently, I am directly saving rich text to a RTB with ".rtf" and I would like to append the rich text information to that box from another RTB. Something like: RTB.rtf &= newrichbox.rtf do not throw any flags but also does not work. What I am ultimately trying to do is save multiple richtextboxes to a single RTF file. I was trying to do it by combining them all into one RTB and using ".savefile()" or is there a better way? Maybe appending them to the file one RTB at a time?
What I'm doing is generating a report, so I have built generic rich text templates that go into multiple RTBs that will create the form sections and I have left placeholders for the data I am adding, so I do replaces on the placeholders to insert the data. However, there are a couple dozen different possible formats for the report based on user options, so I built each section into its own RTB so I can just write out the relevant sections when it comes time to generate the file.
How do I add tables to a RichTextBox in VB.NET 2010?
I've tried adding the tables by using RTF codes, but I can't get that to work. And there is nothing like richTextBox1.AddTable() which would make things very simple. At least, if there is, I haven't found it.
How can I make inactive textboxes / Richtextboxes autoscroll? I have Multiple richtextboxes that are constantly being appended with data automatically and at the moment only the one that is active scrolls and all the others stop when the fill up. How can i get round this?

View 6 RepliesI'm working on a project in vb.net 2010 that has 3 RichTextBoxes. Two of the RichTextBoxes can be loaded with text from text files. How do I take the multiple lines of text from each RichTextBox and combine them into the 3rd RichTextBox.
For example, if 2 of the RichTextBoxes contain the following lines of text:
(RichTextBox1)
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
(RichTextBox2)
Jan
Feb
Mar
I want the 3rd RichTextBox to show following result:
(RichTextBox3)
MondayJan
TuesdayFeb
WednesdayMar
I have 2 richtextboxes on a form and I want to link their vertical scrollbars i.e. ifrichtextbox1's scroll bar is moved then richtextbox2's scroll bar moves by the same amount.The reason for this is that both richtextboxes will contain almost identical text barring a few differences in the second richtextbox. By linking the scroll bars my hope is that the user can better compare the textboxes for any differences between them. I have looked at trying to find a scroll bar property but can not find one. Does one exist?
View 1 RepliesThe code I came up with ALMOST works... but almost is not enough.
1.) all 3 of my richtextboxes have the same quantity of lines, always.
2.) When I scroll one of them, I want them all to scroll in unison, as if they were 1 richtextbox.
Here is the code I have that ALMOST works right....
Public LastLineNumber As Integer
Public HighestVisibleLine As Integer = 16
Public LowestVisibleLine As Integer = 0

I have some text in an .rtf file which uses a non-English character-set (it's chinese).When I open this in Wordpad or Word I see just the chinese characters.When my app opens the .rtf file and reads the file's contents and puts it into a RichTextBox for display, I get "everything" from the .rtf file, i.e.:
{
tf1ansiansicpg1252deff0deflang2057{fonttbl{f0fnilfcharset134 SimSun;}{f1fnilfcharset0 Calibri;}}

Then it needs to read one random line from firstNameBox and a random line from LastNameBox into 2 strings. When the user clicks on genarate name. A random First and last name will be showed in a textbox.

I have a number of questions about richtextbox.
1. How do I change the font by clicking a button.
2. Also I want a Find control but how do I get it to find it then select it.
3. Lastly I am having a Find and Replace where it finds the text in a textbox and then replaces it with what ever is in another textbox.
Well, I have a MenuStrip1 with submenu "Open File1" and "Open File2".
An OpenFileDialog1, two RichTextboxes and a button called "Check".
When I open txt files into RichTextboxes, by clicking the check button i want it to compare the two contents and focus the differents with a color (let's say yellow).
I have created a simple project and at the end it only says with a MessageBox if files are the same or different.

I'm trying to create a little program that compares the text from two richtextboxes and displays the differences in text between the two. I.E. one text box contains "i like cheese" and the other contains "i like blue cheese" I want it to display the word blue in a 3 richtextbox. I'm just not sure what the best way to go about it is
View 5 Repliesi need to create an array of richtextboxes called rbox, and position them in a tablelayoutpanel called tlp.
i have these snippets of
dim rbox(10) as richtextbox
tlp.Controls.Add(rbox(i), 1, 1)
i know that the second line of code has the arguments of (control, row, column). the row and column is good because that allows me to place them in the table and i need this but the control part doesnt work.
I'm still playing with my program that has multiple RichTextBoxes. What I want to do is to be able to save the data in all these boxes (only about 10 characters max in each box) to a simple text file and then reload the saved data into the exact boxes they came from at a later date.
View 5 Repliesfor an application, I generate RichTextBoxes during runtime with the following code. The code generate a new node in Treeview under parent node "Notes".
Dim RichTextBoxCounter As Integer = TreeView_MainForm.Nodes_("NodeNotes").Nodes.Count
Dim NewNote As New RichTextBox
NewNote.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(845, 550)[code].....
Now, I want to show the RichTextBox if the associated child node is selected. I tried the code below, but it does not work.
If TreeView_MainForm.SelectedNode.Text = "Notes" Then
Dim NewNote As New RichTextBoxPrintCtrl
If TreeView_MainForm.SelectedNode.Parent IsNot Nothing Then[code]......
provide the code to display the RichTextBoxes after selecting the node.
When I downloaded VB 2005 Express I took advantage of the bundle of goodies on offer and downloaded SkinCrafter Light.I really like the four skins that come with SkinCrafter Light, and I am using one on my current project (example of the skin I am using here). However, SkinCrafter Light has a couple of bugs with RichTextBoxes (these bugs are known to SkinCrafter, as I can see posts about them in their forum, but they have gone unanswered in over two years!)One bug is that any text that is colored in a RichTextBox is turned back to black when the skin is applied, and if you click anywhere in the RTB the application will crash (you can see my RTB on the right bottom of the form in my screenshot above).
I use colored text in my RTB, but, at a pinch,I could make do without (as I really DO like the Skin), but the problem remains of crashing when clicking inside a RTB.I was wondering (can't test at the moment as I am at work) if simply placing a control, such as a Button, Label, Picture box etc, set to transparent, over the top of the RTB, would solve the problem, so a user could not click inside the RTB (but would be clicking on the invisible control over the top instead).
I have a Richtextbox with many lines. The data is as follow:
[Z=100, A=10, B=20, C=100]
[Z=100, A=33, B=50, C=255]
I want to split the lines to 3 new Richtextboxes, with the A, B and C values + the line number. Should maybe not be so hard, but I got stuck.
This code extracts the A, but obvious only the first line.
Dim values As String
values = RtbAll.Text
Dim Rawdata As String() = Nothing
Rawdata = values.Split(","c)
Dim s As Integer
For s = 0 To Rawdata.GetUpperBound(0)
RtbRed.Text = (Rawdata(1) & Environment.NewLine)
Next s

View 8 RepliesWhat i am trying to do is setup the print and Print Preview - so i can preview and print the contents of richtextbox on a child form.
i have placed - Setup Dialog (mySetupdlg)
PrintDocument (myPrintDoc)
PrintPreview Dialog (myPrintPreDlg)
Print Dialog (PrintDialog1)
on to the child form and am putting the code for the above controls in the Child.vb - the buttons to use the above controls are on a menuStrip and the toolStrip - which merge witht the MDI parent menuStrip and toolStrip. The code below is what i have done so far
Imports System.Drawing.Printing
Imports system.io
Public Class NoterChild
[Code]....
when i run the the program with the above code - any text thats been altered ie- had it font change or it font colour - just shows up in the print preview as the default style,color size .
i thinki am missing the obvious here but may due to getting fustrated with it not working the way i want it to -
