Error #2185
I get the above error when code running in FormA is
trying to set the value of a hidden textbox on FormB
to a string. Here's the code I'm running. How can I
accomplish what I'm trying to do?

The Text property is what you would use in VB. In Access you use the Value property.

Thx for the input, Rick. Here's what I came up with. It
works - except for when the string I'm trying to assign
is over 2048 chars long. I have VLS (very long strings)
to deal with and am now going to have to go BACK to
the drawing board on this. Suggestions?
Forms!FormB!MyT extBox.ControlS ource = "=" & Chr$(34) & VLS & Chr$(34)

I don't understand the problem. A TextBox can hold just about as much text as you
want to jam into it. I believe the limit is around 64,000 characters from the GUI
and even higher than that when done programmaticall y.
If the TextBox is bound to a character field in the underlying table, then you will
have a limit of 255 characters. In that case you need to change the field type to
Memo.

In looking at this again I see you are attempting to set the ControlSource property
which does have a length limit. Why are you doing that? Just use...
Forms!FormB!MyT extBox = VLS
The Value property being the default, it does not need to be explicitly qualified.

Sorry about the confusion. FormA was opening FormB in A_DIALOG
WindowMode which was halting code running in FormA. I had to close
FormB because processing was locked at that time. When FormB closed,
processing in FormA resumed with the next statement and that's where
the procedure was attempting to write the VLS to the control - only
the form was no longer in form view and I was getting an error. Had
nothing to do with writing VLS to textbox. Sorry. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

I'm extremely frustrated with ASP.NET...again! To me this should be as

I have a user control (ascx) that that has a checkbox and I can't get it to
default to checked. I tried radiobuttons and experienced the same result..
can't start them as checked. The really frustrating thing is that I set the
attributes of other input controls in the Init() with no problem.

I add a user control (a simple textbox control) to customize
datagridview column to test how to add user control to datagridview. I
found a weired behavior. I can not input "q", "!", "#".
But I can input other keys (e.g. "Q", "@", "W")
Anybody found this question? It looks like the textbox eat the input
'q' and does not show up in the text.

I wanted certain text boxes ( only certain ones ) to always be Trim'd so
that spaces are not in the begining,
nor the end of the text entered.
I created my own "Handle ?" - i hope thats the right terminology,
and it works. Is this the right way to do this?
I had to use DirectCast to get the textbox name.

I have a money field defined in a SQL Server 05 database with a value of
49.50. Also, it displays in SQL Server as 49.5000. I have a form in VB.NET
2005 and I'm using the new MaskedTextBox control in Visual Studio. I set the
Mask property for the text box to "$999.00".
The problem is when I run the form the text box displays "$495.00" and not
"$49.50" as one would expect. It it shifting the values left here. How do I
fix this?
Thanks...
