View 3 RepliesI have a form with a textbox, and i would like validation to occur so that a blank field is not allowed
e.Cancel = String.IsNullOrEmpty(TextBox.Text)
Does not always work, because it still allows me overwrite an existing field with blank spaces, and then update.
I am trying to validate the character within a textbox. The textbox has a MaxLenght of 1
Private Sub textbox1_TextChanged() Handles textbox1.TextChanged
If allowed_characters.Contains(textbox1.Text) = True Then
textbox2.Focus()
End If
If allowed_characters.Contains(textbox1.Text) = False Then
textbox_userid_input01.Clear()
End If
End Sub
When I enter something in textbox1 at the debug it will do the if contain = false
but the if contain = true doesn't work. I tried a lot, but it still doesn't recognize true.
i have this code:
If TextBox1.Text = "" Then
Label2.Text = " feild empty "
Elseif TextBox1.Text <> "1234" or "7463" or "3625" or "7642" Then
[Code].....
it works when its only only content "1234" but i need to place more than one possible valid input.

View 9 RepliesSince my last thread hasn't been answered and I simply cannot wait until it gets answered, how can I validade what is being written on a textbox?
I need to know when the user types a "-" (minus) char. And when he do so, an message appears (preferably an ballon or a tooltip) and says that is illegal to type this char in particular.
If the user enters non-numeric and numeric values in a textbox, how do I keep only the numeric part?
View 3 Replieshow one would go about validating input into a textbox for example:
Lets say the first letter the user enters has to be 'A' and the third letter the user enters has to be any number ranging from 0-9 and the length of their input cannot exceed lets say 10.
This is what I have so far:
If txtOperatorID.TextLength > 10 Then
bErrorOccured = True
sErrorMessage = sErrorMessage & "-No more than 10 chars" & vbCrLf
[Code]....
The coding for the length works(is there a better way to do this)? The coding for the first letter to be A works but then I have no idea how to set validation for any proceeding characters entered. Am i right in thinking I have to find their position somehow in the string if so how?

I started editing an existing code (basicaly to learn vb) without any real previous experience. Well let's get to the point;I have a form that gathers data from db ordering by user ID (on click count).I have one DataGridView with a list of user,some have data in db, some have not. I came so far that if I CLICK on a user that have data, all data is dissplayed in 6 dinamyc textboxes.If user has no data inly first (emty) row with 6 dinamyc textboxes is created.
BUT THE POINT IS (my question to you) - I have a button that simultaneously adds a row of dinamyc textboxes bellow and multiplyies textbox04 (name is clickcount & 4) and textbox05 and displays the result in textbox06.I want to add a messagebox that shows if textbox04 & 05 are empty and in that case exits sub. Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I have set it up to email me should someone submit this form and an error occur and right now should that occur for most integer or datetime fields if they fail to validate then it will show me which fields in the email failed and what was input into them.
Problem I'm having now is to validate the drop downs and the textboxs in a similar way to what I with integer and datetime fields so I can display those also in the email in case they error.
present integer and datetime validation

Summary:- Need vb code to validate if strings and dropdowns are valid and the use of try/catch block is another possible solution but I wasn't able to figure out how to implement validation for that either.

I currently have a calculation that gets performed based on the type of operation a user chooses on my form (+, -, *, or /). I have it check their answer against the correct answer and tell them if they get the answer right or wrong. I need to know how I can check the answer when they choose a division sign that checks only the first two digits of the lbltxtAnswer label. I also currently have a validation that checks for numbers only, so if the user types in a decimal, the error message displays, which I don't want it to do. Here is my calculation and validation [code]...

I'm struggling with my computing coursework in college and I though My issue is simple but I can't get it right. I need to validate the text into a textbox and check that it contains ONLY alphanumeric characters, but it MUST contain both, not either numeric or alphabetic, but some of each.The textbox should store information about a Street address, that's why both the street Name and the property Number have to be input. Spaces " " and points "." should also be allowed.If it helps, something like "12" or "St. Davis Street" should NOT pass the validation checks, whereas "St. Davis Street 12" will do.I would like to get it done with regular expression as I've been using them throughout my work, but I don't mind other solutions.I'm using Visual Studio 2010 Professional, 4.0 framework and Visual Basic.
View 2 RepliesI am developing a software which will connect to a SQL SERVER situated at Head Quarters over a VPN connection.But for times when VPN is disconnected I want my applications at the branches to connect to a local Sql Server installed at a local server.Now all the applications at each of the local machines have their connectionstring stored in their App.config file.When the VPN is disconnected we have to change each of the connection strings on all the applications in each machine. Is there a way to do it automatically switch the connection string depending on whether the Server is reachable or not, and to store the connectionstring at centralised location.
View 2 RepliesI know you can validate textbox text by using the keypress events. But the form i'm working on has multiple groupboxes with multiple textboxes. So rather than having a sub routine to validate every groupbox, i was wanting to have just the one keypress event that handles the textbox entries, and depending on the textbox calls a specific validation routine.[code]
