Change Font Size At Run Time
In VB, how can you change the font size in a picture box dynamically if the scale properties (I mean coordintates) are changed? In other words, how can the font size be increased or decreased in proportion to the scale properties?

Thanks in advance.

How Do You Change Date / Time With A String?
I'm making a program that involves letting the user change the time manually. They enter the date or time in the textbox and press the command button. I can't get this to work because the DATE and TIME use the long format and the textbox uses strings. I get an error like
"#9:00:00 PM#" (INVALID FORMAT) or something. I believe it is because of the quotes ("") due to the textbox strings. How do you convert long to string, or fix this problem? Thanks.

CommonDialog Box Font Box - Font Doesn't Change
Hi,
I'm using the ShowFont feature of CommonDialog in VB 6.

I have a Rich text box called RTB1


With comDlg1
.DialogTitle = "Font" 'set the dialog title
.Flags = cdlCFBoth
.ShowFont
End With

RTB1.SelFontName = comDlg1.FontName
RTB1.SelFontSize = comDlg1.FontSize
RTB1.SelBold = comDlg1.FontBold
RTB1.SelItalic = comDlg1.FontItalic
RTB1.SelStrikeThru = comDlg1.FontStrikethru
RTB1.SelUnderline = comDlg1.FontUnderline


When I select a font from the box and hit ok - I don't see the font change in the Rich Text Box (for e.g, the font size) .. I step through the code and the .SetFontName , .SelFontSize etc properties of the Rich Text box are getting set from comDlg1 ... but there're no visible changes to the font..


Appreciate any help - thanks.

Font Icons (like In The Change Font Dialog)
Ok, im loading fonts into a combobox (ComboBoxEx) - And I want to add the proper icon next to each font if they have one, like it is in the Change Font system dialog.

Im using the character set value right now but by comparing my results to the change font dialog, I dont think thats close to right, or im just not doing it right.

Can someone show me how to determine what icon (if any) goes to a particular font?

Change Font With Printer.Font.Name
I am using:
  Printer.Font.Name = "Courier"
  Printer.Font.Size = 8
  Printer.Print txtData.Text
  Printer.EndDoc

Because txtData contains columns of text and/or numbers, I do not want to use a variable width font.
Both the Form and Textbox fonts are set to Courier.
But the code above does not actually change the font to Courier on the printer.

I know this is an old problem, but I can't find the solution on Tek-Tips or anywhere on the net.
I have seen that some programmers use Doevents after setting the new font, or use Printer.Print "" before printing the data.
Neither of these work for me.

In another program I am using Printer.Font.Name = "QuickType Mono"
and that works. But it doesn't work in this program.

Can someone explain this?

Change Font
I have some (longish) code as follows:


Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()

For i = 0 To 0

Dim xlApp As Excel.Application
Set xlApp = New Excel.Application
Dim xlWkb As Excel.Workbook
Set xlWkb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open("C:Inverse ProgramResults" & i & ".xls")
Dim xlSht As Excel.Worksheet
Set xlSht = xlWkb.Worksheets(1)
Dim xlChart As Excel.Chart
Set xlChart = xlWkb.Charts.Add
Dim chrtitle As String

xlChart.ChartType = xlXYScatter
xlChart.SetSourceData xlSht.Range("F:F,E:E"), xlColumns
chrtitle = xlSht.Range("b1").Value
xlChart.Visible = xlSheetVisible
xlChart.Legend.Clear
xlChart.Axes(xlValue).HasMajorGridlines = False

With xlChart
.HasTitle = True
.ChartTitle.Characters.Text = chrtitle
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).HasTitle = True
.Axes(xlCategory, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Characters.Text = "Total EDGAR emission"
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).HasTitle = True
.Axes(xlValue, xlPrimary).AxisTitle.Characters.Text = "Modified emission"
End With

xlChart.ChartTitle.AutoScaleFont = True

With xlChart.ChartTitle.Font
.Name = "times new roman"
.Size = 16
.Bold = True
End With

xlChart.Axes(xlValue).AxisTitle.AutoScaleFont = True

With xlChart.Axes(xlValue).AxisTitle.Font
.Name = "times new roman"
.Size = 16
.Bold = True
End With

xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).AxisTitle.AutoScaleFont = True

With xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).AxisTitle.Font
.Name = "times new roman"
.Size = 16
.Bold = True
End With

xlChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines.Add(Type:=xlLinear, Forward:=0, _
Backward:=0, Intercept:=0, DisplayEquation:=True, DisplayRSquared:= _
False).Select

With xlChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines(1).DataLabel
.Left = 200
.Top = 100
.Font.Bold = True
.Font.Size = 14
End With

xlChart.ChartArea.Font.Size = 12
xlChart.ChartArea.Font.Color = vbBlack
xlChart.Axes(xlValue).TickLabels.Font.Bold = True
xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).TickLabels.Font.Bold = True
xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).TickLabels.NumberFormat = "0"
xlChart.Axes(xlValue).TickLabels.NumberFormat = "0"
xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
xlChart.Axes(xlCategory).MaximumScaleIsAuto = True
xlChart.Axes(xlValue).MinimumScaleIsAuto = True
xlChart.Axes(xlValue).MaximumScaleIsAuto = True

xlChart.PlotArea.ClearFormats
'xlChart.Shapes.ScaleHeight 0.83, msoFalse, msoScaleFromBottomRight
'xlChart.Shapes.ScaleWidth 0.76, msoFalse, msoScaleFromBottomRight
xlChart.ChartArea.Select
xlChart.ChartArea.Copy

Picture1.Picture = Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap)

SavePicture Picture1.Picture, "C:Inverse ProgramResults" & i & ".bmp"

Picture1.Cls

xlApp.Quit

Next i

End Sub
_________________________________________________________________

It is meant to create a chart and save it to a bmp file. It does that alright but what it doesn't do is the bits in the middle. It doesn't seem to change the font or size of the title, axes or trendline equation. What's wrong with the code???

I have numerous MS Word documents in which I need to change an existing font. How can I use VB to automate? During a migration from operating systems some of the fonts were changed to MS Mincho from Times New Roman. The idea is to place all of the documents in a folder, run the VB application to make a list of the .doc files, scan through each of the .doc files for the existence of the incorrect font and change that font to the correct font. Any code samples?

Change Font In UserControl?
Hi,

I use the stCalendar control. I've downloaded it from CodeGuru. When I change the font from the properties menu (design time), everything is fine, but when I try to change it with a code, nothing happens. Where is the problem? This is the font part in the control:


Code:
'WARNING! DO NOT REMOVE OR MODIFY THE FOLLOWING COMMENTED LINES!
'MappingInfo=UserControl,UserControl,-1,Font
Public Property Get Font() As Font
Set Font = UserControl.Font
End Property

Public Property Set Font(ByVal New_Font As Font)
Set UserControl.Font = New_Font
PropertyChanged "Font"
CalendarRedraw
End Property

And this is how I try to change it:

Code:
CommonDialog1.ShowFont
stCalendar.Font.Name = CommonDialog1.FontName
stCalendar.Font.Size = CommonDialog1.FontSize

Change Font During Printing
Friends,

I am developing an application, where I am printing directly to the printer. During printing, I want to change the default behaviour of the printer. i.e I want some part of the report to be Bold while for some part of the report, the font I want is small then the default one.

I tried doing this with the help of following code...


VB Code:
Open "lpt1" For Output As #1           Printer.FontBold = True    Print #1, Company_Name & vbcrlf    Printer.FontBold = False    Print #1, Address1    Print #1, Address2    Printer.FontName = "Arial"    Printer.FontSize = 6    Print #1, VATNo    Print #1, CSTNo    Printer.FontSize = 10

I tried with this code, but it didn't worked... I don't know where I am going wrong. If some one could help me out pls....


Thanks.

Change TXT File Font
I need to write some data to a TXT file, but I need the user to open it with an specific font, else there would be problems, look..

Using Courier, Works fine:

iiiiiii SomeText Look Its Aligned
AAAAAAA SOMEtext Look Its Aligned

Using Arial, Problems..(using the same text)

iiiiiii SomeText Look
AAAAAAA SOMEtext Look

I need to align each column, to do that, I use Len(), so before doing that,
I have to be sure it will be a fixed length font, else..
len("iiiiii") = len("AAAAAA"), but the first string is shorter.

So, How to be sure that notepad will use a font like Courier and Not fonts like Arial?
