I would like some code which can:
Pick up a number that has been entered in a text box in a user form.
The text box is called Height
Thanks
You can get the value from the text box like this.
Dim heightInput = Height.text
However, you should do some validation before assuming it is a valid number.
such as
Dim validHeight as Integer
If int.TryParse(heightInput, validHeight) then
' Put code here
End If

I'm working on a Presentation where I have a tabular form of information, where every first column cells have text which function, and I want to get that text from the cell so that I can do something based on the Text.
Here is the function which can help me get the name of the object which is clicked.
Sub getText(oShape)
MsgBox oShape.Name
End Sub
Here is the
You'll see Text Box with text One Two Three, every word has VBA function given to it. Now what I want is when someone clicks any word, it tells which word is clicked.
i want to create a program,whereby my users can enter data through text boxes and it shows on the chart. And they can store it so that the next time the program
is opened it displays their data. How do i go about the saving the data and entering data through text boxes.
You can just set all de userinput in a string. For storing that string you can maybe put it in a text-file.
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("C:\TestFolder1\test.txt",
"This text will be added to the text file",True)
You can output the userinput back again by reading from the text-file.
My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText("C:\test.txt")
And set it in a label.
i've got two textboxes in my form.
According to title, when I write something in one textbox (a random one), i need that at the same time, in the other textbox a text (given in the code) appears.
1 letter for 1 letter
1)Example with random text:
1 textbox ) How are you?
2 textbox) Let's just c
2)Example with random text:
1 textbox ) What is the aim of the project?
2 textbox) Let's just chill out for a mome
thanks so much
You will need to determine which responses you would like to which questions. However, the tackle to letter for letter problem. I would use the substring method and get the length of the current text.
Dim Response as String = "Hello World!"
Private Sub Text(ByVal..) Handles Textbox1.changed
Textbox2.text = Response.Substring(0, Textbox1.text.length)
End Sub
As the text changes in the textbox you are typing in, this will output the response corresponding to the length of the text input. Since the event is textbox.changed, each character entered will update the second textbox
You need to use an event based code here. I would use a loop per stroke of the key and make the event "Key Press." Write the code onto the textbox you are inserting data into.
I am using macrobutton in VBA to have a field whose value is calculated by accessing some other system, and at the same time, I want to be able to double-click on that field to specify some settings used to retrieve data from that other system.
The whole macro stuff works fine but I can not figure out how to change the label on the macrobutton.
Typically the macrobutton looks like this { MACROBUTTON macro_name label {some_arg}{some_arg2} }
I tried accessing selection.fields(1).code.text and even doing regexp to replace 'label' by something else but that just does not work, i.e. either I lose the args or I screw up the label.
Any advice for this issue, or perhaps a suggestion of some other type of field I could use to achieve this? I wouldn't mind using DOCVARIABLE but these can not respond to clicks and carry arguments?
You should be able to do something like this:
Sub Testit1()
Dim strText As String
Dim strLabel As String
Dim strNewLabel As String
strLabel = "Chew"
strNewLabel = "Devour"
' Replace the field code values in the first field to change the label
strText = ActiveDocument.Fields(1).Code.Text
ActiveDocument.Fields(1).Code.Text = Replace(strText, strLabel, strNewLabel)
End Sub
This will basically do a search and replace inside the field code for the macrobutton field you want to change. ActiveDocument.Fields(1).Code.Text is the part I think you are looking for.
I want to validate text taken from a textbox and display it in a specific format.
I have tried using a MaskedTextBox, but when the textbox is empty it shows the empty blank lines (underscores) in the text box.
How can I avoid that and show the masked textbox like a simple empty (still masked) textbox?
Also, I want data like csc-(somenumber). Can I add some random number automatically after 'csc-' characters?
The reason the masked text box is showing a blank line is because underscore "_" is the default prompt character for a masked text box. You have two options for changing this.
If you want the prompt to be visible while the user is editing the text but hidden otherwise, set the HidePromptOnLeave property to true.
MaskedTextBox1.HidePromptOnLeave = True
If you never want to have the underscore as the prompt character, you can change the PromptChar property to be a space " ". You cannot make the PromptChar nothing, the field must have a value.
MaskedTextBox1.PromptChar = " "
For your textbox, use the MaskedTextBox class.

For getting a random number
Dim s = "csc-" & New Random().Next(1000, 10000).ToString
