Lectia 10: Introducere la VB built-in functii
O func ie este similar cu o procedur normal, dar scopul principal al func iei este de a
accepta un anumit input de la utilizator i returneaz o valoare care este trecut pe la
programul principal pentru a termina executia. Exist dou tipuri de func ii, func iile built-
in (sau func ii interne) i func iile create de programatori.
Formatul general al unei func ii este
Functionname (argumente)
Argumentele sunt valori care sunt transmise la func ia.
n aceast lec ie, vom !nv a dou func ii interne de baz "isual foarte de baz, dar utile,
adic MsgBox () i InputBox func ii ()
10!1 MsgBox () Func ia
Obiectivul de #sg$ox este de a produce un mesa% caset de tip pop-up i cere
utilizatorului s face i clic pe un buton de comand, !nainte de el & ea poate continua.
Acest format este urmtoarea'
"ourMsg # MsgBox ($rompt! %aloarea &t"le! titlu)
(rimul argument, (rompt, se va afi a mesa%ul !n caseta de mesa%. "aloarea )t*le va
determina ce tip de butoane de comand apare pe caseta de mesa%, v rugm s
consulta i tabelul +,.+ pentru tipuri de buton de comand afi ate. Argumentul titlu va
afi a titlul message board.

8 vb1etr*/ancel ncerca i din nou i anula butoane

(utem folosi numele de constant !n loc de numere !ntregi pentru al doilea argument
pentru a face programele mai usor de citit. 6e fapt, "$9 va afi eaz automat o list de
nume constante de unde pute i selecta una dintre ele.
Exemplu' *our#sg : #sg$ox (;Apsa i O. pentru a continua;, +, ;)tartup #enu;)

*our#sg este o variabil care de ine valori, care sunt returnate de func ia #sg$ox ().

A function is similar to a normal procedure but t=e main purpose of t=e function is to
accept a certain input from t=e user and return a value G=ic= is passed on to t=e main

(or internal functions) and t=e functions created b* t=e programmers.
>=e general format of a function is

!sing TextBox )ontrol In (isual Basic E
9extBox controls o""er a natural wa? "or users to enter a value in ?our program. Lor this
reason, the? tend to be the most "reTuentl? used controls in the ma@orit? o" 6indows
applications. 9extBox controls, which have a great man? properties and events, are also
among the most complex intrinsic controls. In this section, I guide ?ou through the most
use"ul properties o" 9extBox controls and show how to solve some o" the problems that ?ou`re
li7el? to encounter.
Setting properties to a TextBox
9ext can be entered into the text box b? assigning the necessar? string to the text
propert? o" the control
I" the user needs to displa? multiple lines o" text in a 9extBox, set the MultiLine
propert? to 9rue
9o customize the scroll bar combination on a 9extBox, set the .crollBars propert?.
.croll bars will alwa?s appear on the 9extBox when it`s MultiLine propert? is set to
9rue and its .crollBars propert? is set to an?thing except Eone)=*
I" ?ou set the MultilIne propert? to 9rue, ?ou can set the alignment using the
3lignment propert?. 9he test is le"t,@usti"ied b? de"ault. I" the MultiLine propert? is et
to Lalse, then setting the 3lignment propert? has no e""ect.
*un:Time roperties of a TextBox control
9he 9ext propert? is the one ?ou`ll re"erence most o"ten in code, and convenientl? it`s the
de"ault propert? "or the 9extBox control. 9hree other "reTuentl? used properties are these:
T'e SelStart propert$ sets or returns the position o" the blin7ing caret )the insertion
point where the text ?ou t?pe appears*. Eote that the blin7ing cursor inside 9extBox
and other controls is named caret, to distinguish it "rom the cursor )which is implicitl?
the mouse cursor*. 6hen the caret is at the beginning o" the contents o" the 9extBox
control, .el.tart returns =J when it`s at the end o" the string t?ped b? the user, .el.tart
returns the value Len)9ext*. /ou can modi"? the .el.tart propert? to programmaticall?
move the caret.
T'e SelLengt propert$ returns the number o" characters in the portion o" text that
has been highlighted b? the user, or it returns = i" there`s no highlighted text. /ou can
assign a nonzero value to this propert? to programmaticall? select text "rom code.
Interestingl?, ?ou can assign to this propert? a value larger than the current text`s
length without raising a run,time error.
T'e SelText propert$ sets or returns the portion o" the text that`s currentl? selected, or
it returns an empt? string i" no text is highlighted. Ase it to directl? retrieve the
highlighted text without having to Tuer? 9ext, .el.tart, and .elLength properties.
6hat`s even more interesting is that ?ou can assign a new value to this propert?, thus
replacing the current selection with ?our own. I" no text is currentl? selected, ?our
string is simpl? inserted at the current caret position.
6hen ?ou want to append text to a 9extBox control, ?ou should use the "ollowing code
)instead o" using the concatenation operator* to reduce "lic7ering and improve per"ormance:
9ext+..el.tart K Len)9ext+.9ext*
9ext+..el9ext K .tring9oBe3dded
&ne o" the t?pical operations ?ou could "ind ?oursel" per"orming with these properties is
selecting the entire contents o" a 9extBox control. /ou o"ten do it when the caret enters the
"ield so that the user can Tuic7l? override the existing value with a new one, or start editing it
b? pressing an? arrow 7e?:
Private .ub 9ext+WPotLocus)*
9ext+..el.tart K =
` 3 ver? high value alwa?s does the tric7.
9ext+..elLength K >>>>
1nd .ub
3lwa?s set the .el.tart propert? "irst and then the .elLength or .el9ext properties. 6hen ?ou
assign a new value to the .el.tart propert?, the other two are automaticall? reset to = and an
empt? string respectivel?, thus overriding ?our previous settings.
9he selected text can be copied to the (lipboard b? using .el9ext:
(lipboard..el9ext text, "ormat%
In the above s?ntax, text is the text that has to be placed into the (lipboard, and "ormat has
three possible values.

.trictl? spea7ing, ?ou can avoid the test "or the last &ptionButton control in its group because
all choices are supposed to be mutuall? exclusive. But the approach I @ust showed ?ou
increases the code`s readabilit?.
3 group o" &ptionButton controls is o"ten hosted in a Lrame control. 9his is necessar? when
there are other groups o" &ptionButton controls on the "orm. 3s "ar as !isual Basic is
concerned, all the &ptionButton controls on a "orm`s sur"ace belong to the same group o"
mutuall? exclusive selections, even i" the controls are placed at the opposite corners o" the
window. 9he onl? wa? to tell !isual Basic which controls belong to which group is b?
gathering them inside a Lrame control. 3ctuall?, ?ou can group ?our controls within an?
control that can wor7 as a containerMPictureBox, "or exampleMbut Lrame controls are o"ten
the most reasonable choice.

3 t?pical application has more than a single Lorm. 6hen an application runs the main Lorm is
loaded. B? setting the Pro@ect properties ?ou can control which Lorm is to be displa?ed in the
.tart,Ap o" the application. Lollowing "igure illustrates the Pro@ect propert? window.
B? de"ault, !isual Basic suggests the name o" the "irst Lorm created when the pro@ect started.
=oading and !nloading 8orms
In order to load and unload the "orms, Load and Anload statements are used. 9he Load
statement has the "ollowing s?ntax :
Load LormEame
3nd the Anload statement has the "ollowing s?ntax :
Anload LormEame
9he LormEame variable is the name o" the Lorm to be loaded or unloaded. Anli7e the .how
method which cares o" both loading and displa?ing the Lorm, the load statement doesn`t show
the Lorm. /ou have to call the Lorm`s .how method to displa? it on the des7top.
S'o>ing and 7iding 8orms
.how method is used to .how a Lorm. I" the Lorm is loaded but invisible, the .how method is
used to bring the Lorm on 9op ever? other window. I" the Lorm is not loaded, the .how
method loads it and then displa?s it.
.?ntax o" the .how method o" the Lorm
LormEame..how mode
9he LormEame variable is the Lorm`s name , and the optional argument mode determines
whether the Lorm will be Modal or not. It can have one o" the "ollowing s?ntax :
I =,Modeless )de"ault*
a +,Modal
Modeless Lorms are the normal Lorms. Modeless Lorms interact with the user and the user
allowed to switch to an? other Lorm o" the application. I" ?ou do not speci"? the optional
mode argument, b? de"ault the mode is set to modeless.
9he Modal Lorms ta7es the total control o" the application where user cannot switch to an?
other Lorms in the application unless the Lorm is closed. 3 modal Lorm, thus, must have a
(lose button or some means to close the Lorm in order to return to the Lorm where the Modal
Lorm was loaded.
7iding 8orms
9he 2ide method is used to hide a Lorm. 9he "ollowing is the s?ntax o" the 2ide Method.
LormEame.2ide
9o hide a Lorm "rom within its own code, the "ollowing code can be used.
Me.2ide
/ou must understand that the Lorms that are hidden are not unloaded J the? remains in the
memor? and can be displa?ed instantl? with the .how Method. 6hen a Lorm is hidden, ?ou
can still access its properties and code. Lor instance, ?ou can change the settings o" its (ontrol
Properties or call an? Public "unctions in the Lorm.
