CanadianRene Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 The attachment shows a screenshot of something I want to do. I want the user to be able to insert smart 'components' in the textbox selected from the drop-down menu. The program will then replace these with proper values. My first instinct says to create custom controls that inherit from labels. These will be my smart components. Then a custom textbox control that accepts these labels as input? not sure if I am on the right track and not sure how a textbox can accept a control as input? Quote
Leaders snarfblam Posted February 17, 2012 Leaders Posted February 17, 2012 The standard textbox does not support this feature. You might be able to do something like this with a rich text editor. Are the "components" supposed to be controls (e.g. clickable button) or placeholders for predefined values (in which case, why not use some sort of %tags%)? Quote [sIGPIC]e[/sIGPIC]
