1. im not so sure about this but i think its like

Code: Select all

Progressbar.Progress = WebBrowser.Progress

2. you need ColorDialog.ShowDialog() to show it

3.Make a button, double click it, in the sub type this:

Code: Select all

TextBox1.Copy() 'Copys selected text in TextBox1
TextBox1.Cut() 'This might work i haven't tried it
TextBox1.Paste() 'I've also never tried this lol
TextBox1.SelectAll() 'You can do this to select ALL text

4. Type this:

Code: Select all

Dim filename as String = "C:\WINDOWS\secretTextFile.txt" 'change to filename
Dim stext as String = "" 'change to what text to save
Dim rtext as String = "" 'leave blank
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteText(filename,stext,false) 'saves file
rtext = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadText(filename) 'read data to text

That code should work. If it's not ReadText and WriteText its just Read and Write. Good luck programming!

Be sure to check out my program called H2SV!
