(? Help) Change Listbox Selected Text Without .additem Or .remove Item
Hi, I browsed through posts and didnt see this question elsewhere so I hope I didnt miss it if it was answered already. If so im sorry.
I was wondering if there is anyway to change the selected text entry for a list box without adding or removing an item.
Example: If there were these options in a list box:
A
B
C
and "B" had been selected by the user is there anyway to change "B" to "D" without using the .additem or the .remove command? If you need me to restate or clarify what im asking please let me know and Ill repost as soon as I see it. Thanks for any help I get in advance.
- Sidenote: I would use a loop and simply add them into another list box and back into that one in a different in the correct order but theres some sticky and touchy coding done on the list box's _click statement that really wouldnt make such a loop possible....if this sidenote didnt make sense sorry its 5 am .

Change Color Of Item In ComboBox
Good afternoon!
I am trying to change certain items listed in a Combo Box to the color red to show a warning to a user.
After hours of research, all I know is that since the ComboBox does not have a forecolor property in VB 6, I have to use an API call...
Which is all good, I've done API calls before, however I don't know which one to use!
Has anyone had any experience with this?

Change Properties Of Item In Text Box...
Uhhh. its probably a long shot, and im sure it probably isnt possible. But..
Is it possible to type something like "Command1" into a text box..
then click a button.. and have it do something to the command button
For example, i type "Command2" into a text box, click a button
and command2 programmically changes its width/height/caption etc...
But i do not want to use control arrays like this:
Command1(Text1.Text).Caption = "hi"
Cheers.

Change ComboBox Text When Item Selected
I though this would be easy, I have a ComboBox style set to 0, and the list is populated from a dB. What I want to do is have the default Text change to the selected item when the list reloads. Here is the code;
Code:' Populate the Type list
cboEntryType.Clear
If Len(sqlQuery) > 2 Then
cboEntryType.Text = sqlQuery
Else
cboEntryType.Text = " All"
End If
For i = 0 To m_TypeRows
str9 = " " & m_varTypes(0, i) & " " ' Entry Types
cboEntryType.AddItem str9
Next
sqlQuery is a parameter sent to another function that returns the ListItems, if I set a watch on the var sqlQuery it does indeed have a valid value, but when the box is displayed the Text is " " with focus on the box.

Change Colour Of Menu Item
Hello,
In VB6 I have a normal form with a menu on it (created with the menu editor).
This works fine so no problem there.
What I want to do is change the colour of the text or background of a specific menu item (depending on some checks I perform)
So imagine I have the following menu structure:
<File><New><Blank>
Now if the user has no rights to create a new file, I want the <New> tag to have a red background colour or the text in red.
Invisible or disabled are not an option because the user must be able to click it anyway (he has to be prompted with a message or so after clicking an 'invalid' menu item)
How can I do this with a normal menu?
If ot is not possible, are there other components I can use?
Thanks for your time and your help!

Change Icon Of Tree View Child Item
Hi
I have a tree view which displays the status of various devices connected to my system
Periodically I poll the devices to get an updated status. If the status changes I want to display a different icon (eg warning icon, or healthy icon).
I know the specific Relative and Child item but i cant figure out how to change the icon in runtime for the child.
I tried:
Code:
myTree.Nodes(ArrayEntry).Image = newIcon
but that is trying to change the relative icon rather than the specific child device icon.
Anyone got the solution?
Thanks in advance
Kind Regards
