Hi all,
I need to impose maximum and minimum numerical limits on a textbox.
I'd prefer not to code these in (since I have many textboxes and the
limits on each are different) and was wondering if there is any way to
do this within the textbox properties?
For example, I know the "NumericUpD own" has maximum and minimum
properties so that you can specify a range. This would be perfect,
however, I'm not a fan of the up/down arrows on the side. Is there a
way to bring in a NumericUpDown control and not display the up/down
arrows? If not, I'm hoping to get an answer to my question in the
first paragraph...
Thanks in advance,

I don't know of a built in method, and I can't say I ever looked.
However I would recommend that you create a new class that inherits
from TextBox and add in the necessary properties and functionality to
achieve the numerical limits. Then, whenever you need the
functionality, just use the ExtendedTextBox you created instead of the
default TextBox.

Add the necessary code the the textbox's TextChanged event handler.

I know of no textbox properties that can do that. Unforch, I think you
are going to have to add some code the TextChanged event handler's for
your textboxes. In you case, you may want to write a private general
value limiter method that is invoked in the TextChanged event handlers
for those textboxes you want to limit the values in.

You can create your own user control and implement the functionality
of a numeric up down by putting a min/max value and validating the
entry every time. If you're not as worried about validation (or the
code is already written) you can use the LostFocus or TextChanged
events to quickly validate against whatever your min/max is and throw
a messagebox or change the value within that.

A normal textbox has a MaxLength property, but nothing to cover the
minium. If you need this, then why not create a UserControl so that
you can add this behavior to a standard textbox?

Okay, that makes sense. However, I'm still new to VB. Can someone
please list some pseudocode to get me started?

I would create a class and have it inherit from textbox.
public class NumericTextBox
Inherits TextBox
Then I would define properties for the min and max value
public property MinValue as double
public property MaxValue as double
Grab a hold of the LostFocusEvent of the textbox to validate your box
public sub LostFocus ()
dim dbl as double
if Double.TryParse (me.text, dbl) then
if dbl me.MaxValue then
me.Text = me.MaxValue.ToS tring()
throw exception
elseif dbl < me.MinValue then
me.Text = me.Minvalue.ToS tring()
throw exception
end if
else
'not a number
me.Text = me.MinValue.ToS tring() 'If you don't reset it you
could run into issues especially in textchanged
throw exception
end if
end sub
You can also do the above in the text changed event if you want to
validate it on every character not letting the user think they can
even input a number that big. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

Hello,
I have the following problem. I need to convert a unsigned char
array into a string using only number (0-9) and '.'. The goal being to
stored it on the minimal number of bytes.
The first approach is a representation ala IP address:
255.255.255.255.255.255 therefore it takes 6*3+5 = 23 bytes. I can even
get rid of the dot since the lenght is fixed. So I can go down to 3*6 =
18 bytes.

Hi,
I am currently implementing a solver for linear optimization problems
using the revised simplex method and I stumbled accross some strange
behavior regarding the treatment of the number 0.
I am not sure whether this is compiler or language related though.
The first problem is, that there are two representations of zero, namely
+0 and -0. Does IEEE for floating points allow this? Maybe I didn't
activate IEEE floating point numbers?

Hi group,
I have a form with a textbox control on it. I am using the textbox
control with multiline enabled to output the 'log' information for a
long process I am running. My problem is that it all works fine until
the limit of the size of text is reached for the text box. This causes
the textbox to stop update whilst the thread running the process
continues.
Any ideas how I can expand the functionality of the textbox to accept

Hi
I am just starting on Visual C (2003) from a VB background. I find it easier
to learn by actually programming. I have fallen over at the first hurdle.
How do you extract a numerical value from a text box? I have a number of
reference books but it is not mentioned because I guess it is simple and I
am just missing it.

If so, why?
My webhoster, dreamhost, just informed me that my php apps can not
upload files over 7mb, because of a PHP limitation.
I don't know a lot about it, but I thought those limits were imposed
by the web-hoster, not the language.
I also thought those limits could be overwriten by editing the php.ini
or .htaccess files.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
