Checking String If 7 In Length And Contain Any Other Characters

Dec 3, 2011

I am working on a program that will take in a string of length 7 containing either R,G or B for the colours. The program will then check that the string if 7 in length and if it contains any other characters than R, G or B then it will be invalid. I created this code but when I enter the right string length and characters it always gives me the error for not having the right string length.

Private Sub get_cars()
Dim Letter As String
Dim valid As Boolean
Dim position As Integer
txtPosition.Text = position

Get The Length (i.e. Number Of Characters) Of An ASCII String In .NET?

Jun 17, 2009

I'm using this code to return some string from a tcpclient but when the string comes back it has a leading " character in it. I'm trying to remove it but the Len() function is reading the number of bytes instead of the string itself. How can I alter this to give me the length of the string as I would normally use it and not of the array underlying the string itself?

Dim bytes(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize) As Byte
networkStream.Read(bytes, 0, CInt(tcpClient.ReceiveBufferSize))
' Output the data received from the host to the console.'

[code]....

Len() reports the number of bytes not the number of characters in the string.

How To Split String Based On Set Length Of Characters

Nov 2, 2011

MVC 3. Vb.net. Part of my app generates PDF files using Itextsharp. Some strings are too long to go onto the background image correctly. So I basically need to split this string when its over 26 characters long and when it splits it cant split in the middle of a word. from there I will use newline to add the string to the right to the next line... I did start bulding the function that I will pass the string into test for length and then pass back the string after it finishes.

Private Function stringLength(ByVal _string As String) As String
If _string.Length < 26 Then
_string.Split(
End If
End Function

String Modification - Length / Remove Characters

Dec 27, 2010

I have a notify icon and I use the 'Text' property instead of 'BallonTipText' because I just like it better and it fits well with my application. The only thing wrong with that is the 64 character limit. How can I determine the length of a string, remove all characters after the 61st character, then add three periods at the end of the new string? I've looked around and can't find any solution to removing all characters after the first X characters.

Regex Replace All Characters In Variable Length String?

Oct 6, 2010

Using VB or C#, I am getting a string of variable length from the database. This information is sensitive information that only certain users will be able to see.I have two cases that will use the same logic (I think).scenario 1: replace all characters with xscenario 2: replace all characters with x except the last 4 characters (assume length > 4 - this check is being done).I thought that this would be easiest using Regex.Replace(input, pattern, replacestring). As opposed to a lot of string handling with substrings and forcing a length of 'x's.

Length Checking In VBA With Null?

Jan 7, 2011

I have some code that is meant to check the length of the values in the text boxes, and if any of the boxes has no content the length of the string is 0 (or null). Here is the code:

If (Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl48.Value) Or Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl49.Value) Or _
Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl50.Value) Or Len(Form_MainScreen.Ctl51.Value) Or _

[code]....

When one string is blank, the length check becomes "null" and so does the whole statement.But if the length checks are all not null, the if statement becomes a "1" and then procedes to execute the Do X procedure again.

VS 2005 - MaskedTextBox - If The Length Of The Text = 14 Characters, Enable The Reset And Start Button

Jan 2, 2011

I am using the MaskedTextBox and I am wanting to check for the following:

1. If the length of the text = 14 characters, enable the reset and start button

2. If the length of the text < 14 characters, enable the reset button, disable the start button

3. If the length of the text = 0 characters, disable both buttons

I am able to get most of it to work but when the length = 0, the start button is disabling like it's supposed to but the reset button is staying enabled. Any ideas? I have been looking at this code for hours and can't figure out why this is.

Here is the code.

vb Private Sub mtbClientPhoneNumber_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles mtbClientPhoneNumber.TextChanged 'Make sure that there is a phone number entered into mtbClientPhoneNumber. ValidateUserInput

To see the form in action, you can see it here. The reset button isnt disabling when length = 0

Error When Getting A Substring Of X Characters Out Of A Parent String Of Less Than X Characters?

Feb 23, 2011

Not sure if too many people know this, but the following line will cause an error:

GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_"

....if the length of GroupName is less than 3 characters. I always thought it would simply return whatever characters in GroupName, but no, it errors. I must be thinking of the old VB6 days.So, I now have to change the code to:

If (GroupName.Length > 2) Then
If (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then

Note that the two comparisons need to be on separate lines. If they are on the same line, such as:

If (GroupName.Length > 2) and (GroupName.Substring(0, 3) = "jt_") Then then the code will still fail as the length command is executed at the same time as the substring command- which will cause the error when the GroupName length is less than 3.Just thought that those of us not aware of this should be!

My problem is that in any given line of data, say it could have three columns of numbers, each five chars wide at positions 10, 16, and 22. If on this one particular row, there's no data for the last two cols, it won't be padded with spaces; rather, the length of the string will be only 14. So, I can't just blindly have
