Many types of credit cards have the same format. This format is XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX, where X is a digit.The dashes are embedded into the string containing the card number.Create a console application to * Declare String variables Partl, Part2, Part3, Part4, and InputString. * Read a credit number consisting of 16 digits only, no hyphens, into InputString.* Write the statement(s) to extract each four-digit segment into Partl, Part2, Part3, and Part4* Display the four parts.This is what I have, and I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong because there is an error when it runs.
Sub Main()
Dim inputString As String = "1234567891234567"
Dim part1, part2, part3, part4 As String

I am trying to extract numbers from string text. e.g. 1 day (8 hours)' I need the one and the eight integers pulled out I would like to extract then store each number separately for use later. I am aware of techniques to count string text, but not pulling certain information from it.

Basically this is my problem, showing the results of a string. I am making a program for a customer and he wants to be able to extract a string or set of emails from a large group of text. In this case he wants to be able to copy a webpage and extract all the emails out of the webpage. The problem i am having is showing the results of the List(of string) Function. So far, I can copy the page, paste the content to a textbox and then i have a function that is supposed to filter out the emails and paste or Show them in a list box.
I dont know why but no matter what I do I always get this error:
Error1Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)' cannot be converted to 'String'.
This happens when I try to output the return results to a textbox or list box.
Here is the code for the whole program:
Entire Program Code:
Imports System.Text.RegularExpressions
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code] .....
I have tried almost everything I could do, I am relatively new to string functions so that is my main problem.

I have a text file I'm trying to pull specific data from to make a report in excel and am wanting to know if my code can be improved or if I have something wrong. If it's apparent to anyone that I should be doing something elThis code does work but, very slow. These reports take up to 20 minutes for about 100 files so I am wanting to decrease the time somehow. I have attached the whole sub in a text file, it's about 900 lines long so don't think I should post all of it. This is one part that seems to take the longest:Partial code that reads the text into a string, then each line is read to find whether it holds the data or not. Inside this while loop, I am checking numerous lines to see what they hold and extract specific items. First I verify it's a interface by checking for "line protocol".
Dim str As StreamReader = File.OpenText(filefound)
While (str.Peek <> -1)
If txtLine.Contains("line protocol") = True Then 'Found an interface,

I have a program that goes through SQL statements, identifying component parts with a space. eg: -
SELECT * FROM tblSales WHERE CustomerID=10 AND Year=2011
Would produce the following as separate components: -
"SELECT","*","FROM","tblSales","WHERE","CustomerID=10","AND" and "Year=2011"
The problem I have however is the use of spaces within values eg.:-
SELECT * FROM tblSales WHERE CustomerNameID='Test Company' AND Year=2011
Using the same space-separating logic, this would produce components of:

I'm trying to create a small program, which I think will be helpful to others(in here). My aim is to convert the English text shown in screen to Malayalam. English-to-Malayalam conversion is not a problem. But the problem is, how to extract the text from the screen. In most of the converter/translator, the text needs to be copied or written down in the translator tool. But my program will cut off that part. That is, simply move the program window (having a rectangle hollow portion) to the English word that needs to be converted. And upon pressing a button (or autodetect), the English word is converted to Malayalam.
So, my question is how to extract the English text(or words) from the screen (which is seen through the hollow portion of the window.
Here's a screenshot of what I'm trying to do.

Does anyone know of a way that you can get the string that is held at this reference point (its the contents of a registry value that corresponds to a string - see this thread for more info [URL]
@%Systemroot%system32wbemwmisvc.dll,-204
I think I've seen C# (or maybe C++) code use lines like this but I cant find any way of getting the value from the DLL in VB.NET

I'm fairly new to VB and I had a quick question. I have a multi-line text box that currently looks (line for line) like this:
scn <Name>
Begin <Start Variable>
End
What I am trying to do is make so when I enter text into a different text box (lets call it textbox2) and push an 'Update' button, it replaces a certain part of the original text box. For example:
If I enter "Dogs and Cats" into textbox2 and push update, then this:scn <Name>
becomes this:scn Dogs and Cats
How would you do that? Excuse my lack of VB programming lingo like I said I'm new to this language.

OK, so the following is a link to a picture of my program. I'm including it because I feel it makes things a lot simpler. some information. When you click Rename, it goes to that Rename form. The information already there is the current name. What I plan to do is make it easy to rename the file.What I want is when the user clicks one of the handy buttons, the information appears in the text box (as I've gotten that far already). When the button is clicked again, it removes ONLY the specified information. I don't know if you can, and if you can, what to use. Currently I'm using clear which is obviously wrong. I want essentially:
When button is selected
Append Text Variable A
When button is deselected

I am using a label to display a song for an mp3 player. I wanted to scroll the text inside the label for anything that is longer than the label width. I figured out the width of the label and if the width of the text inside the label is longer. But I have no idea how to turn this into subtracting parts/pixels of the text currently displayed and how to append the subtracted parts to the end of the new text.[code]

My program uses the serial port to receive characters as a string, then it should extract the integers from this string. This seems fairly simple, but so far has been a very tedious job.
My string is called txt. The problem is that there's no telling how many characters / integers txt will hold at any given moment. For instance, it may equal "4" or "4 5 6 7" or "P 0 1 2 3 4 5 6...255" - with spaces included. I need to reference every number within this string to use as data. I've tried the following:
dim c as new char
dim n as new integer
dim i = 1

This is my second post on this topic. I included all the code this time. In calculate click event the value is zero and I don't understand where I went wrong. My work is due tomorrow, if anyone can tell me why I can not extract the price from the string. What this program is doing is taking items from the stockListBox and adding them to the shoppingList Box then extracting the price from the shoppingListBox and adding the prices together.t a note- in public class I changed the string and seperated the price from the item, not sure if I was suppose to do that.lso, everything works except the calculate event.

I m trying to write a program that is mostly dynamic. This program enables the user to read in several inputs (temperature, pressure .) and perform calculations on those inputs. After that the program sends an integer to an analogue output port. The program automatically determines the number and type of the inputs. It also creates something called a variable handle for each input.This is then saved to an array input_handler(0,x). That array is sized this way input_handler(0 to 1 , 0 to 9)
0= handle (integer)
1= value (integer)
The program dynamically creates a button for every input. There also is a button for every mathematical operator. This way the user can create a function by pressing buttons.This function will be saved to a string. That string will look something like this input_handler(1,0)+ input_handler(1,4)/ input_handler(1,3)Well now Im stuck with a string and VB will obviously just print out that string instead of calculating anything. Is there any conversion I can perform so that string becomes the actual array values?
