Count How Many Vowels There Are In A Word Or Phrase

Jun 21, 2010

I have an assignment that asks me to create an application that lets the user enter a word or phrase, then displays the number of vowels found in that word or phrase.

Here's what I have so far:

Dim mystring As String = Me.txtenter.Text

Checking For Vowels In Each Word And Order Them

Nov 13, 2011

The text file words.txt contains a list of words. Write a program that displays the words in a list box sorted by the number of different vowels, they should be ordered first by their length(descending) and then alphabetically. The display should show both the word and the number of different vowels in the word.

So I have
Private Sub btnDisplay_click handles(...) btnDisplay.click
Dim Words() as string= io.file.readalllines("words.txt)
I can use for each word in words to check each word but I don't know how to check how many vowels are in each word or how to order them.

Scan Text For A Certain Word/phrase?

Dec 14, 2010

I am trying to make a program which goes through the HTML code of a page and then searches for a certain phrase. I have gotten up to the point of executing a search on a site and then dumping the html code of the body.How would I go about doing this?

The phrase I'm looking for is "<tr><td><a
href=javascript:d(87178)>Name of File</a></td><td>Date Submitted</td><td>Likelyness
to work(%)</td></tr>

All I would need to do is find the number inside of the parenthesis (87178) in this example and I THINK I'm good to roll, so how would I do that?

Read A Word Document For The Purpose Of Obtaining A Word Count?

Oct 29, 2009

I'm trying to read a word document for the purpose of obtaining a word count, I realise Word has built in functionality for presenting a word count but I want to write a little app that will omit certain parts of the document from the word count.

So far I have tried this code to open the document but I am getting an error 'Word.Document cannot be found' and 'Microsoft.Office.Interop cannot be found'. I have added a reference to the Microsoft Office 12.0 Object Library under the COM tab. I have Office 2007 installed and I'm using VB2005.

Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop
Dim appWord As New Microsoft.Office.Core.Application
Dim docWord As New Word.Document
docWord = appWord.Documents.Open("c: est.doc")

Count Syllables In A Word?

Mar 5, 2009

I'm trying to count syllables so I can calculate the Flesch Readability Index of some text that is inputted into a textbox. I can count words and sentences fine but my syllable count stays at 1 no matter what word I enter. A syllable is defined as follows:

Each group of adjacent vowels (a, e, i, o, u, y) counts as one syllable (for example, the "ea" in "real" contributes one syllable, but the "e..a" in "regal" counts as two syllables). However, an "e" at the end of a word doesn't count as a syllable. Also, each word has at least one syllable, even if the
previous rules give a count of 0.

Here is my code.

Public Class Form1
Public Sub txtInput_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtInput.TextChanged

String Parse - Display Word Instead Of Just Count

Feb 17, 2009

I am new to Visual Basic and I am having some problems with a programming challenge. The user is told to enter their city, state, and zip into a textbox seperated a certain way (Ex. City, State. Zip). The program is supposed to display the City, State, and Zip in three seperate label boxes broken up. So far the code that I wrote for the button click event displays the count up to where a comma is found (City). Im not sure how I would display the word instead of just the count. Also, finding the state and zip after the City is found. I know I have to use the IndexOf method as well as the Substring method.

Here is what I have so far:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnProcess.Click
Dim strCity, strState, strZip As String
Dim strInput As String = txtInputData.Text
Dim intCount As Integer
'Obtain the count for city
intCount = strInput.Length
strCity = strInput.IndexOf(",")
lblCity.Text = strCity
End Sub

Phrase To Passphrase (Password) Generator?

Sep 27, 2011

I wanted to make a simple program for people to create passwords out of phrases. A phrase can be a quote, or something that is easy for you to remember. An example would be: "I visit the MSDN often". The passphrase from that would be: "IvtMo".Notice the case is retained. The phrase is just the first character of every word. The button click function is to convert the phrase into passphrase.The capital() function is change random characters in the passphrase to uppercase. This works by using the Dim x As

String = Int(TextBox2.Text.Length * Rnd())

which allows "x" to be equal to the length of the passphrase text times a random.

Controls: Button named Button1 CheckBox named CheckBox1 TextBox named TextBox1 TextBox named TextBox2
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

RichTextBox Highlight All Instances Of A Phrase

Jul 7, 2010

In VB.Net, is it possible to highlight ALL instances of a phrase instead of only a single instance of it, for example: txtView.SelectionStart = txtView.Find("ERROR: Invalid command entered.") txtView.SelectionColor = Color.Red This would highlight "ERROR: Invalid command entered.", however if my RichTextBox text is: ERROR: Invalid command entered. < Only this line will highlight ERROR: Invalid command entered. ERROR: Invalid command entered. Alternatively, is there a way I can simply colour the line when I write it to the RichTextBox?

Text Phrase Identification - Determine Type Of Input?

Feb 22, 2009

I'm trying to identify if the input of a textbox is non numerical, which cannot be converted to an integer/double for calculation. I do this by converting the input1.text to ascii, and looking at the value to determine the type of input. My question is whether there is any way I can analyze the whole input character by character? Asc() only gives the ascii value of the first character, but what if the input is "9W" etc? Such inputs will pass my character test, but cannot be converted to an integer.
