Loop through empty textbox until the textbox has data

Question

I\'m sure there\'s a simple solution on this, but it escapes me. I have a form with three text boxes on it. Before the main code is run I want to make sure each text box has dat

Answer 1

I moved my evaluating condition to the execute buttons on click event. There I run an if statement and when hasData is true run the function with the rest of the code.

    Private Sub btnExecute_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btnExecute.Click
    Dim hasData As Boolean = False
    If txtTechManName.Text.Trim = "" Or txtDirectory.Text.Trim = "" Or txtBxUnique.Text.Trim = "" Then
        hasData = False
        MsgBox(" Please fill all text boxes on form ")

        If txtTechManName.Text.Trim = "" Then
            txtTechManName.Focus()
        ElseIf txtDirectory.Text.Trim = "" Then
            txtDirectory.Focus()
        ElseIf txtBxUnique.Text.Trim = "" Then
            txtBxUnique.Focus()
        End If
    Else
        hasData = True
        runProgram()
    End If
End Sub
