i need to be able to get the difference between two strings, i found out how to get the difference with this code:
Dim Changes As String = NewText.Replace(OldText, " ")
but i also need to be able to find the index of where the difference is, does anybody know how to do that ? EDIT:I just found a flaw in that code, if the OldText is "html" and the NewText is "html html" Changes is not gonna be "html"

View 6 RepliesSay 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?

View 39 RepliesI 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))

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;

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?
Dim str As String

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:

Dim StringStartposition As Integer

View 2 RepliesI 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

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

I have in the past used .net executables as libraries. I'd just add them to the references in visual studio and I was ready to go. Today I tried the same to a new exe (actually mine) and it doesn't seem to work. When I add it to Visual Studio and try to watch its members on the Object Browser, it doesn't show up anything inside that executable's assembly.
I know the main difference between an exe and dll is that the first has an entry point while the 2nd doesn't. Are there any more differences? I know that unmanaged dll's also have a DLL entry point, do .net have one too?Also, what might be the reasons that could make my standard exe/dll (with this i mean, not obfuscated or anything extreme like that) not show up anything in the Object Browser?
