Convert Regex Variable To String So I Can Use It In Textbox?
Mar 9, 2012Dim phone As New Regex("(?d{3}[) ]s?d{3}[- ]d{4}")
BUT I can't use it with txt1.text = phone as it isn't string.
How can I set new regex as string ?

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.
View 2 RepliesPart of my project is to retrieve a string variable from an external source (google docs) and parse it. This string represents width and height. I have no problem retrieving, I just need to parse it in to two strings. The string has 4 variations.
Here are examples:
3"x4"
3"hx4"w
3hx4w
3x4
The width is always the first number and the height is always the second. Sometimes, the width and height have decimal points. Any way to parse this into two strings of the numeric values only?
i'm using Regex.Split to convert a text file's string to System.Array. The end result is System.Array of 211 strings.
Now what i need is to convert System.Array to a Byte of 211. How would I accomplish this?
System.Array to Dim x(211) as Byte?? Sample code would be great here. I've already visited many sites on this subject with no luck. code below.

I have a list of string. When user inputs chars in, the program would display all possible strings from the list in a textbox.
Dim fruit as new List(Of String) 'contains apple,orange,pear,banana
Dim rx as New Regex(fruit)
For example If user enters a,p,l,e,r , then the program would display apple and pear. It should match any entry for which all letters have been entered, regardless of order and regardless of additional letters.
I am having an issue where I am using regex.Replace to replace part of a string. The basic idea is that I want to capture the beginning of the string then replace the end of the string with a value from code. For an example pretend I have a string that says "Test Number " followed by number and I want to increment that number. I capture the "Test Number " but when I try to concatenate that capture with the new number it treats the capture ($1) as a literal and replaces the entire string with $1[new number].
[code]...
This will output "We are on Test Number 2", as expected. how I can use a variable in the replacement string portion of the Regex.Replace when including a captured group?
sRndMessageNumber = "sNewMessage" & CInt(Int((3 - 1 + 1) * Rnd() + 1))
I want to Calculate a number between 1 to 3 and then call the variable sNewMessage2 for example. So how to convert from string to variable?
I'm programming a basic slot machine in Visual basic, and want to use a for loop to randomly choose the image for each slot, display the image in each slot, and change the slotName variable (so I can check later on which symbols are in the slots) for each slot. The problem I'm finding with a for loop is that the variables and objects for each slot have different names (slot1Name, slot2Name, slot3Name, lblSlot1, lblSlot2, lblSlot3, etc). Is there any way I could have could something like:
currentSlotName = "slot" & i & "Name"
This is the code at the moment, this code is repeated (with different variable and object names), for each of the 3 slots, which is pretty inefficient.
' Randomise numbers and assign images to slots based on random numbers, if the hold isn't on
' Slot 1
If Not held1 Then
slot1Value = Int(Rnd() * numbersGenerated + 0.5)
Select Case slot1Value

Convert String Variable to an Integer?
I tried this[code]...
Here's my problem :
Let say I have a variable called A
Which value is 100 ( A = 100)
In a form, I have a textbox, where I want to enter a variable name
textbox1.text="A" for example
Then I want to display the value of that variable
msgbox (somefunction(textbox1.text)), which will popup 100
I read some info about Reflection, but they all seems to refer to controls and not simple variable

I have a form where a number of textboxes are programmatically created within a flowLayoutPanel and named by adding together 2 strings.
With the click of another button i hope to have all the values entered into these text boxes stored in a text file. However, i cant seem to find a way to add strings together to allow me to retrieve the values entered within the text boxes created.
Below is the code i have so far: BTW FLP is my flow layout panel and c is my calculated nmber of textboxes that are created.
Private Sub createTB(ByVal c As Integer)
Dim x1 As Integer = 1
Dim y As Integer = 2

If edate has a value 29/12/2011 than the value in expenddt gets changed to a different format and the value in expenddt comes to 12/29/2011 and later after subtracting a day expenddt is 12/28/2011 and than when i convert it back to a String i get the value in asd as "12/28/2012 12:00:00 AM"

I am developing an application which initially allows the user to browse and select a save location. The selected path is assigned to a public variable which is used with concatenation to crate folder for saving user input data. How can I change the path string to a constant so the user can run the program again without having to run setup routine unless they want to change the save location?
View 1 RepliesI am currently looking into the conversion of a string value to an integer. Obviously I will need to do some validation as to whether the passed value is in fact convertible to an integer.
At the heart of my question is this: the users' local is nl-BE (dutch (Belgium)), which means that we use a comma as decimal sign (and points as thousands separator); e.g. 123.456,78 would be a valid nl-BE number. Now, when using the numeric keypad, the
decimal key will yield a point, not a comma (weird huh!). So many user will enter 123456.12 and when converted to an Int, this should yield 123456.
The thing is that I want to cover all possible angles; both points and commas may be used as decimal sign by the users. So I wondering if anyone has written some code that deals with such a situation. I was thinking of an extension method that makes the
conversion based on whether a point or a comma is last used in the passed string (since no thousands separators should occur after the decimal sign).

I need to get just the date and times from this list, and put them in variables. so that I'll end up with:
1) A string with a value as a date, which would be "10 January, 2011" for example: strDate1 would have the value of "10 January, 2011"
2) A start time, for example: strStartTime1 would have the value of 9:45
3) An end time, for example strEndTime1 would have the value of 18:00
I have a WinForms app with a multi-line textbox. This displays and retains (after loading from the DB) line break characters fine. However if I assign the TextBox.Text value to a string variable and then re-assign the variable back to the TextBox.Text property, the line break characters are lost and replaced with a square character (can't past them here as they just paste as a line break!)

I'm looking for a way to search a string variable for two words and copy the text in between them into another variable. This needs to be done as many times as the match occurs.
View 3 RepliesThis is a pretty complex regular expression that returns an array of key/value pairs from a proprietary string of data. Here is sample of the data, in case the express can not be used in .Net and another method needs to be used.
0,"101"1,"12345"11,"ABC Company"12,"John Doe"13,"123 Main St"14,""15,"Malvern"16,"PA"17,"19355"19,"UPS"21,"10"22,"GND"23,""24,"082310"25,""26,"0.00"29,"1Z1235550300000645"30," PA 193 9-05"34,"6.55"37,"6.55"38,"8.05"65,"1Z1235550300000645"77,"10"96,""97,""98
If you look closely you see its key,"value",key,"value" The only guarantee on formatting is that each key value pair is separated by a comma, and each value will always be encased in double quotes. The main problem (the reason you cant explode it) is the poor choice of the previous coder to separate keys and values with the same character as the entries. Anyways, out of my hands. Here is a working PHP example.
function parseResponse($response) {
// split response into $key, $value pieces
preg_match_all("/(.*?),"(.*?)"/", $response, $m);

We know that VB string start and end with double quotes " "
So we have to use "" if we want " in VB string.
I wonder if there is a regular expression pattern which will match VB string?.
Using VB.NET, Is there a way to do this RegEx call in 1 step... instead of 2-3? I'm trying to find the word "bingo", or whatever is between the START and END words, but then also inside the inner FISH and CAKES words. My final results should be just "bingo".
