hello,
i'm making am update client for an online journal website. the website supports bbcode, so in the app i've made buttons like Bold, Italic, Underline, etc...so when you click the button it prints either an opening tag or a closing tag . but when you click the button it and set the focus on the textbox again the cursor in the textbox moves to the beginning.
Code:
Tag$ = "[b]"
txtBody.Text = txtBody.Text + Tag$
txtBody.SetFocus
i know there is a way to keep the cursor at the end of the textbox i just don't know how. could anyone help me out?

Text File To ListBox && TextBox
I Have a file.txt that goes like:
A*1*2*34*43
B*34*2*4453*43
C*2*43*95*93
I would like to get the A, B and C letters into the listbox and the other 4 values (the numbers) to different variables. Lets say, first grade, second grade, third grade and forth grade. This variables are not to be shown in the listbox.

Setting Listbox Text To Any Textbox
Hi,
I have a form which has a listbox and had number of items. I would call this form by pressing F5 button on any textbox of any form. And when listbox item is doubleclicked then the selected item should be transferred to the textbox.
I think some property setting is needed. Any help?
Thanks
Listbox Text Gets Inputted Into Textbox
I'm trying to be able to type a text in a textbox and it will find that text in the textbox, and select an item from the listbox and put the text into the textbox. I got the first thing done with this:
VB Code:
Private Sub txt1_Change() lst1.text = txt1.TextEnd Sub
I understand that if there are two list entries of the same text, it might come up with an error, but I'm sure that won't happen because all that's in the listbox is just folder names in a specific directory, and Windows won't let you have two folders in the same directory with the same name. But that worked nice, so I did the second thing:
VB Code:
Private Sub lst1_Click() txt1.Text = lst1.TextEnd Sub
That worked, but the problem that occured was I couldn't type in my textbox, now. Can anybody help me with this? Thanks.
Textbox Capturing Listbox Text Scenario
Bad title description probably...
I have two listboxes and one text box,basically whatever item is selected in listbox1 ,the listindex of listbox2 matches the item of listbox1...
example:
listbox1 first item is orange,listbox2 first item is apple,so if listbox1 item is selected then apple is automatically selected on listbox2...simple enough so far,but i want the textbox to capture the text of listbox2 and store it in the textboxes text property...
problem is the textbox only stores the second item of listbox2 and not the first item..now i realize from previous posts on this forum that the listbox starts with 0 ,and ends with -1
but im having problems coding an IF statement on the listbox1 click event :
Code:
Private Sub lstfruits_Click()
If lstbox1.ListIndex Then
lstbox2.ListIndex = lstbox1.listindex
txtstoredfruit.Text = lstbox2.Text
End If
End Sub
so my question is,how would I fit the 0 and -1 into this IF statement?.
edit*** nevermind i figured it out ..sorry
Keep Focus On Listbox While Highlighting Text In Textbox
I'm scrolling through a listbox and a text box will display the corresponding info. I would like to know how to highlight a specific string in the textbox while keeping focus on the listbox so I can use the arrow keys to scroll up and down the listbox
strSearch = Text1.Text 'user input
iPos = InStr(Text2.SelStart + Len(strSearch), Text2.Text, strSearch)
If iPos Then Text2.SelStart = iPos - 1
Text2.SelLength = Len(strSearch)
Text2.SetFocus
if the search string is found, the text is highlighted but listbox loses focus and pressing the arrow keys will just move the cursor in the textbox. Anyone know how to keep focus on listbox and still highlight text. Thanks
Highlight Text In Textbox But Keep Focus On Listbox
i want to highlight certain text in a textbox. The textbox is loaded according to what is clicked on the listbox and the selected highlighted text is from user input. How can i allow the listbox to always keep focus when the user uses the keyboard to scroll up and down the listbox and at the same time highlight the textbox. Right now if i try to reset focus to the listbox, the text won't be highlighted. This is the code i tried.
Dim iPos As Integer
Dim strSearch As String
strSearch = Text1.Text 'user input
iPos = InStr(Text2.SelStart + Len(strSearch), Text2.Text, strSearch)
If iPos Then Text2.SelStart = iPos - 1
Text2.SelLength = Len(strSearch)
Text2.SetFocus
Open Text-file In Textbox And Listbox (VB3)
In my programm there's listbox (List1) and a text-box,
which I can save in a Text-File. The first line of the
textfile is the text form the textbox and the following
lines are from the listbox. (Method from OneSource)
-> How must I write the code, that the first line gets
into a textbox and the rest into the listbox when I open
the file ?
For this programm I use VB 3.0 (but normally this isn't a
problem)
Thanks for some advice, Matt

Listbox To Listbox File Moving
I am working on an application where I want to present a current file's field list in one listbox and let the user Click once to highlight it and click a command button to move it from that listbox to another one (for processing). When moved I want it to be gone from the first list and present in the second. Similarly, I have another command button that does the opposite. Can someone give me some ideas of how I actually do this?

Moving From One Listbox To Another
I am currently moving items from one listbox to another the normal way with a loop. However, there can be up to 15,000 records that are moved at one time. Is there an API call that will move all records from one listbox to the other more quickly and efficiently?

Moving Items In A Listbox
Hi, I have a listbox, with the following:
[case 1]
Msg "Hello"
[case2]
msg "hello"
You can place these items on another dialog.
but, I need it to look like:
[case1]
Msg "hello"
... ---->Open a new space for more Messages when you place one.
[case2]
Msg "hello 2"
This is the code I have so far, but it isnt working.
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim newe As Integer
newe = Newevent.EventList(Eventnum).ListCount
Newevent.EventList(Eventnum).AddItem "<Msg>: " & Text1.Text, newe
'This bit is OK, places the message.
If Newevent.EventList(Index).Text = "..." Then
Newevent.EventList(Index).List(Newevent.EventList(Index).ListIndex) = "..."
Newevent.EventList(Index).List(Newevent.EventList(Index).ListIndex) = "<Msg>: " & Text1.Text
'Only one thing to happen for a Case
'Need it so you can have more than 1 Message under
'case 1, case 2,etc... (Move every ListItem down 1?) -Chris
Dim Position
For n = Newevent.EventList(Index).ListCount To Position + 1 Step -1
Newevent.EventList(Index).List(n) = Newevent.EventList(Index).List(n - 1)
Next

Moving Item From One Listbox To Another
Hey all
I am trying to move an item from one listbox to another. The first listbox has items where the RowSourceType = "Field List" and the second one is value list. This is my code:
Private Sub DisplayAllFields_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)
If ListOfFieldsSelected.RowSource = (List0.Value & "." & DisplayAllFields.Value) Then
MsgBox ("You cannot select a field more than once. Please select another field")
Else
ListOfFieldsSelected.AddItem (List0.Value & "." & DisplayAllFields.Value)
End If
End Sub
When I double click the same value in the first list again, it brings up the msgbox once but it doesn't do that once it has added another field to ListOfFieldsSelected. I would use the RemoveItem method so user can't click the field again but DisplayAllFields is set to Field List so it can't remove item unless set to "Value list". Any suggestions on this?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

Moving Listbox View
After picking an item in a Listbox, I want to return it to the top of the list. using listindex just selects an item, but doesn't return whats shown to that item. I want it to display item 0.
How do I accomplish this?
I had:
Code:
ListBox1.ListIndex = 0
but it just highlights the item, but does not show it.
i'm showing one item at a time, and scrolling to the picked item.
Listbox Moving Listindex
i have this code to select the next listindex and if its at the end start at the beggining again.
VB Code:

i know you can do if statements to check where the index is but i have been trying to figure this out and i just cant get it right.
thank you.

Moving Cursor In A TextBox
Hi everybody!
I'm trying to write an "On screen keyboard" for an application I have to delelop.
Using buttons I can easly modify the text property of a TextBox control (Text1) writing whatever I want.
I can also start a new line with the code line "Text1.text = Text1.text & vbCrLf" but I cannot move the cursor one char left or right through the string using the Chr(26) or Chr(27)!
If I try "Text1.text = Text1.text & Chr(26)" a non printable char is displayed and the cursor shifts always right .
I would like simply to simulate the arrow keys...
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Moving From Flexgrid To Textbox
I have a situation where I've got one flexgrid control (call it flexSearch), and two data controls (call them dbFull and dbSearch). flexSearch is populated by dbSearch, and is filled according to a query. dbFull is the entire database, and is linked to a bunch of text fields (CompanyName, ContactName, etc).
Here's what I'd like to do: The user clicks on a record in flexSearch, and dbFull jumps to the corresponding ID and populates the bound text fields accordingly. The only way I can think of to do it is to page through the entire database until I come up with an ID that matches the one that was clicked in the flexgrid; however, I'm dealing with around 130,000 records, so I would rather avoid that processor overhead every time somebody clicks a field.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Pass Value From Listbox To Textbox When Single Click On Value In Listbox
Hi there,

Anyone know how I can do this?

Moving ListBox To Typing Position.
Hey,
I have a question for you that seems to me as if it could be a hard one... I have not been able to find anything about it, mainly because I haven't got a clue as to where to look for...
I made some sort of AutoComplete feature in my program (in a RichTextBox), and it would be really nice if I could make it similar to Visual Basic's "Auto List Members" option (which is the listbox popping up with possible keywords when you type a ".")
I want a ListBox to become visible whenever the program is autocompleting a word, that lists all other possible keywords (because there are often multiple).
I want this ListBox to appear at the location of the I-beam (selection thingy).
How can I get it to move there? Is it possible to find the Top and Left location of the I-beam inside a RichTextBox somehow? I doubt it...
Can it be done otherwise?
Moving Listbox Items W/ Mouse
does anyone know how to shift listbox items around with the mouse? a good example would be winamp's playlist. the code i came up with works fine...if you move your mouse slowly. if you go fast, it'll pretty much mess up the order because the cursor jumps around when you move your mouse too quickly.
Dim HotItem1 As Integer
Private Sub List1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Button = 1 Then
If HotItem1 <> List1.ListIndex Then
If HotItem1 > -1 Then
a = List1.List(HotItem1)
b = List1
List1.List(List1.ListIndex) = a
List1.List(HotItem1) = b
End If
HotItem1 = List1.ListIndex
List1_Click
End If
Else
HotItem1 = -1
End If
End Sub
Prevent Cursor In Textbox From Moving
like in the thread title,
is there anyways to prevent the cursor from shifting or moving within a textbox??
for example, i press right or left arrow buttons for some reasons, but i do not want to move the cursor in the textbox that is used for input....maybe it is preferable to maintain the cursor at the end of the string that the user typed or backspace.

Moving A Textbox In A Flexgrid With The Mouse ...
OK now I have worked out how to move my textbox around my flexgrid with the cursor keys, I want to take it one step further and allow the user to click a cell, which will in turn move the textbox to that cell.
I'm using the flxgrids MouseMove event, and obviously know the .Left and .Top of the grid itself, but is there any way of knowing what the row and column is where the user has clicked ?
E.g. if they click the cell in Row 3 Col 2, can I find out that it IS Row 3 and Col 2 ?
Thanks in advance ......

I have a listbox, that I want to pass a .text value from to a textbox.
Problem is, The listbox is holding two values (as passed by 2 fields from a recordset) like this...

rstCust.MoveNext
Next
Which displays the list like this:
