Right Justify Textbox

How do I right justify input data in a textbox? I have some textboxes that
are used to input numbers, and I would like to right justify them.

Here's how to do it (assuming textbox is named myTextBox)

myTextBox.TextAlign = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
Hope this helps :-)

Hi Brian,
I am using a textbox on a web application, and I also want to right
justify on some cells in a datagrid, while editing. The textbox doesn't
allow for TextAlign. I checked the help, and it looks like this may be for a
windows form. I thought there might be something under styles or controls,
but haven't been able to find anything.

Ahok, sorry, I assumed it was Windows Forms.

Just do this for ASP.NET:

<asp:TextBox id="TextBox1" dir=rtl runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

I'm not sure if there is a programatic way to do this.

Hope that helps.

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'Put user code to initialize the page here
Dim frm As Control = Me.FindControl("Form1")
Dim ctl As Control
For Each ctl In frm.Controls
If TypeOf ctl Is TextBox Then
DirectCast(ctl, TextBox).Style("TEXT-ALIGN") = "right"
End If
End Sub

asp doesn't have property alignment.
