Set Char Number Limit And Handle Special Chars In TextBox?

Jan 28, 2009

I am a new VB programmer and am using TextBox in VB2008. Here are the problems I experienced in TextBox -

1, After I typed number in TextBox and found I need to type another number. So I used backspace key to remove it. But at this time program quit and displayed this problem: InvalidCastException was unhandled. How to solve this issue?

2, Can anybody tell me how to set number of characters are allowed to be typed in TextBox?

3, Can anybody tell me how to implement the feature that only numbers are allowed to be typed? In case letters are typed, how to tell user to re-type?

Writing An XML Document That Has Computer Paths And Special Chars?

Jan 6, 2009

I'm not sure what to call this so my search results weren't very helpful. I am writing an XML document that has computer paths and special chars such as '&'. XML does not like them, so I need to find a way to convert them. I looked at Apple's iTunes XML document and they have the following:Actions & Motives = Actions '&' Motives (without the ' ')C:/Documents and Settings/mmulhearn/My Music/iTunes = C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mmulhearn/My%20Documents/My%20Music/iTunes/

Object Handle Events Fired In Other Objects Without A Special Sub?

Jul 28, 2010

I've been thinking about my options when it comes to events in vb.net.What I'd like to do is to track events that are fired in an application without explicitly declaring them with 'handles' sub. Here is a pseudo-[code]....

Yeah I know, not quite working, but is there any way of implementing something like this in vb.net? My end game is really to be able to monitor events fired in many objects from another object, isn't there a more maintainable way to do that then to add a special sub in each object that handles the event that I want to catch? I need some way to let one object handle events fired in other objects without a special sub, the AddHandler goes a long way, but I can't really use that dynamically like so:[code]....

.net - Regex Replacing Non-words Chars In Strings, Ignoring Specific Chars?

Oct 8, 2011

In VB.net I've got the following line that removes all non-alphanumeric chars from a string:

return Regex.Replace(build, "[W]", "")

I now need to extend this to remove non-alphanumeric chars that aren't [] or _. I've changed the line to:

return Regex.Replace(build, "[W[]_]", "")

However I'm pretty sure that this says

replace non-word or [ or ] or _

how do I negate the tests for the [] and _ chars so that it says

replace non-word and not [ and not ] and not _

Some examples:

"[Foo Bar_123456]" => "[FooBar_123456]"
"[Foo Bar_123-456*]" => "[FooBar_123456]"

Limit To Number Of Events?

Mar 19, 2009

I am working on an application that has a number of forms in it, doing asynchronous comms with a "radio network" over a serial port.To handle replies from the network in the appropriate form, I am using RaiseEvent. As time goes on, I seem to be needing more and more events. Is there a limit to the number of events that can be firing off at the same time?

I understand that computers can't actually do several things simultaneously, but obviously while the code triggered by one event is still running, another one might fire.

Pure Text Files / Handle Special (german) Characters In .net Vs VB6 Old Files?

Jul 17, 2009

i have an old VB6 system that generates plain text files. When this old system writes "A" into the file, it writes (hex) "41". For an "ä" (a-umlaut, special gernam character), it writes (hex) "E4".

Now i have to process files like this in VB.Net. when i open such a file in the IDE, it displays correctly "ä" (But not always!). To see what i mean, please open a notepad and create a new file "ae.txt" with content: äöü. Now your file contains exactly 3 bytes: (hex) E4 F6 FC.

But when i write code like
Dim strTest As String
strTest = File.ReadAllText("ae.txt")
Debug.Print(InStr(strTest, "ä"))

i get 0 - so i cannot find back the "ä" - what do i need to do, to find it? And 2) for compatibility reasons, i have also to be able to create such files. How to do that? Seems the different encoding types do not work as i think.
