Create Strings On The Fly?
Oct 22, 2010
I'm trying to create a number of strings based on one long string that i'm passing.
Basically this is an example of my long string
StrMain = AL123456 - PR123456 - RD123456 - LO123456
So in this case I want to create 4 separate strings.
Str1 = AL123456
Str2 = PR123456
Str3 = RD123456
Str4 = LO123456
But there isn't always that many or there may be more so I need to count how many - there are and with that then create the amount strings needed.

Say I have a List(Of Tag) with Tag being an object. One member of Tag, Tag.Description, is a string, and I want to make a comma-separated concatenation of the Description members.Is there an easier way to do this than to read the Description members into a List(Of String) and then use the Join function?

I would like to make a program that generates a safe passwords for people to use. I want to make the passwords vary in length, include numbers, letters and upper case letters. I've been able to write code that prints out a random string but it includes unrecognized characters for most passwords. How would I write the code to create a random string that has parameters? (in this case upper case lower case letters and numbers).

If I have a list box or something that has a list of like 4 years (like 2006 through 2009), how do I programmatically make variables of these years with names like pTable2006, pTable2007, etc (as ITable of course). If this isn't possible and I have publicly declared these tables in the declarations (like pTable2006 as ITable, pTable2007 as ITable, etc), how can I programmatically assign these variables based on user choice?
What I'm asking is, if the user wants to choose years 2006 and 2007, how can I write this:
pTable & ListBox.Items.Item(0) = [table path string] & ListBox.Items.Item(0)
(please ignore the syntax of the "listbox", I'm just trying to come up with an example)
Whenever I put something like pTable & "string", I get an error.

I'm working on something relatively simple I am trying to create a dynamic amount of comma separated strings.I have a variable (numberOfStrings) which is the number of different strings I need.I just want to loop thru the aryDrivers and assign then to the different strings.Dim aryHeats(numberOfStrings - 1) As ArrayList
Dim aryDrivers() As String
aryDrivers = txtBatch.Text.Split(",")
For i As Integer = 0 To aryDrivers.Length - 1
For j As Integer = 0 To aryHeats.Length - 1
aryHeats(j).Add(aryDrivers(i) & ",")

I need a bit of advice. I am working on my project with the listbox. I know how to create a source to get the strings from the text file using ReadLine method, but I have no idea how to split the strings in the text file by on the third commas and ignore the other strings while select with the matched strings on the listbox for each row.Here it is an example listbox Here it is an example items on the listbox
random item 1
random item 2
random item 3
random item 4
random item 5
And here it is an example text file.
example strings one, any strings 1, any random strings 1, other strings 1, final end of strings 1
example strings two, any strings 2, any random strings 2, other strings 2, final end of strings 2
example strings three, any strings 3, any random strings 3, other strings 3, final end of strings 3
example strings four, any strings 4, any random strings 4, other strings 4, final end of strings 4
example strings five, any strings 5, any random strings 5, other strings 5, final end of strings 5
The listbox is display the list of an example items, so if I select the "random item 1" item on the listbox, it read the strings through in the text file on the first line to get the strings on the third commas in the same line which it is (any random strings 1) to split it while ignore the other strings (other strings 1, final end of strings 1) that come fourth and fifth commas. So, if I select the "random item 2" item on the listbox, it read the the strings through in the text file on the second line to get the strings on the third commas in the same line which it is (any random strings 2) to split it while ignore the other strings (other strings 2, final end of strings 2) that come fourth and fifth commas and so on...That is what I am trying to achieve by select the each listbox item to get the correct strings for each line in the text file that come on the third commas while to ignore the other strings.

I'm trying to create a form that accepts names (or any strings) as input and stores them in a object. See attached form sample.Form Image:
Operations: ï Initially the NumericUpDown object on the form should be disabled.The user enters a value (string) in the textbox and clicks the Add button or presses the Enter key to activate that button.The application then stores that name in a List object, and displays the last entry in the Label underneath.The NumericUpDown should become enable after the first entry. The user should be able to move between all the values entered using NumericUpDown.

I am trying to create an application that will randomly select 14 "stations" (strings) from a list of 33. My thinking is that I have a for/next loop that randomly selects a number between 1,33 which is then inputted into an array (arrnumber) I then want those random numbers to then be used to call the Station name which is saved in the second array, and then for the selected stations to be populated into a listbox (potentially by storing those names selected in a new array?)
Various people have suggested either using a list (of t) instead of arrays, or a Dictionary(?) or perhaps even a database, though I am not all that confident with VB to be able to know where the best place to start with that is. So if anyone can offer any advice, pointers as to how I can link my 2 arrays (I am pretty sure I know how to make the array populate a listbox) I would be very much obliged.
Public Class Form1
Dim Stationid() As String = {"Cardiovascular Examination", "Respiratory Examination", "Abdominal Examination", "Abdominal Examination with Stoma", "Groin and External Genitalia Examination", "Cranial Nerves Examination", "Arm Examination", "Leg Examination", "Parkinson`s Examination", "Cerebellar Examination", "Speech Examination", "Hand Examination", "Elbow Examination", "Shoulder

I have a list of strings. For each string in that list, I want to prepend another string. I wrote a method to do it, but I was wondering if there was something already in .NET I could use to do this. It seems like something that could be built in, but I was not able to find anything.
Here is the method I wrote:
Private Function PrependToAllInList(ByRef inputList As List(Of String), ByRef prependString As String) As List(Of String)
Dim returnList As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For Each inputString As String In inputList
returnList.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", prependString, inputString))
[code].....
It works, but I would rather use built in functions whenever possible.

I'm migrating from VB6 to VB.NET, in hence my questions below:
I have to write a function that returns array of strings.
How can I initiate it to empty array? I need it since I have to check if it's empty array after it returns from this function.
Is list of arrays better for this purpose? If I use a list - Is it empty when it firstly defined? How can I check it it's empty?

I have been looking for examples to find the string between two strings. This top one works fine;
Public Sub ReadData(ByRef keywordStart As String, ByRef keywordEnd As String, ByVal filename As String)
Using reader = New StreamReader(filename)
[Code].....
Now the first one is fine - Ext_Volume is result of the string between the strings <Volume> and </Volume>. <Volume> and </Volume> are unique so this is straight forward.
However the second one - "^FDExp:" is unique, but "^FS" is not unique. There are occurances of "^FS" before and after "^FDExp:".
How do I get the string to search AFTER the occurrence, not before etc?

Is there an easy way to find a certain string within a string and then return the strings that you find as an array?I have written this:
Public Function FindStrings(ByVal strSourceString As String, ByVal strStartString As String, ByVal strEndString As String) As String()
Dim StringStartposition As Integer

I have a DataGridView that has some columns with dates. It binds to an in-memory Datatable which gets loaded from an string array of data passed back from the backend Some of the rows returned have nulls for the date columns. Solution 1: If I define the Date column in the DataTable as "string" I can easily convert those nulls to empty strings and display it in the grid as empty strings (desired results). However, if the user clicks on the date column header to sort by date, it doesn't order the rows as you want. You get a purely string sort order. Not acceptable

I want to create an array of an array (or arraylist of an arraylist) to hold strings.I want to fill an array1 with string values Then add this array to array2. - but only taking up 1 row in array2 e.g something like array2(index)=array1 Then clear array1 then loop through this again with different data, and add it to the array2.so will end up with something like
array2(0)... contains a collection of array1 data
array2(1)... contains a collection of different array1 data
.. and so on
i think i need to make new instances of array1 each loop, but not sure.I dont mind if it uses arrays, or arraylists, or lists, or structure of arrayslists?

Here's the weird problem I am trying to solve but cannot get my mind around it. In a text box 1, the user enters 2 or more strings separated by comma. then in text box 2, the user enter 1 or more strings separated by comma. The output then puts the strings from text box 2 between the strings in text box 1
Example:
TextBox1 = visual basic, java, perl
TextBox2 = is better, compared to
