Hello. I have made an Enum in visual basic to hold different objects. As an example I will say it was Fruit.
Public Enum Fruit Banana Apple Orange Watermelon End Enum
Then I have a text box. In this text box the user could type a fruit. What I want to do is have code that will be able to recognize if this text contains a possible value of the Enum Fruit, then subsequently find which value it is.
What I have now is this:
Private Sub txtTextEntry_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles txtTextEntry.KeyDown If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then Dim Search As Fruit Search = Fruit.All End If End Sub
I realize that Fruit.All does not actually do anything, but that is the kind of effect I wish to have. Any suggestions?
