Format Textbox data

Hi,

I made a custom textbox control inheriting from native windows
textbox. The i made another form where i used the custom control, what i
want to do is to bind the data from my datatable to the textbox then
when i load the data from the datatable before that data is shown in the
textbox i want to format the data first so the data will show up to the
textbox in the formatted style. Same when i move next or previous from
my currencymanager in the form the data should be formatted first. My
problem is i can't find the right event that will only trigger when i
load up data to the textbox. I want to do this formatting on the custom
control that i made and not on the form where i put the textbox. Is
there any way to do this if not on the event then on other ways?

Thanks.
Ryan.

hi all: I am trying to write a program using VB6. This program loops (well, not yet) and reads a constant data stream from a serial port. Then it outputs the "formatted" data to a textBox and writes it to a file. Well, I have no Idea how to go about this because I have never used VB. I think I am making some good progress so far but I need some help to keep going. What I currently have pops a small window that has an OK button (which I...

Hi all, I need to format screen output for a textbox that's bound to a datasource. I know how to format the data in a plain old string, but in this case I'm not sure where to "sneak" in there to do the formatting. For example, textbox txtAcctBalance is bound to a currency field in my dataset, and when the value shows up on the screen I want it formatted as currency ("C").

For readability sake I’m going to first state that: LF = Line Feed CHR(10) CR = Carriage Return CHR(13) Since Rich Text Format is a standard formalized by Microsoft Corporation I get to ask them why they decided that RTF format needed to start writing LF instead of the CRLF that you see in implemented in non formatted text such as seen via notepad. Nor can I find any history on why the decision was made. Was it forgotten and just left...

Good afternoon. I have a "Fixed/2" format applied to a textbox on its property sheet. When I type data in the textbox, it is formatted correctly. But when I update the value programatically by setting the "value" property, the text does not format. I can get around this of course by using the VBA format() command. But is there any way I could update the value in code and have it display according to the format that is specified on the...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
