.net - Extracting The Wildcard Value?
Jul 20, 2011I've been having problems extracting the value of a Regex in a String. I have a string with several regex expressions and I need to get the value of each expression's match. The thing is though, it's not returning the last match correctly. For example:
Regex Pattern: I play (S+.*?) and (S+.*?)
String: I play the guitar and the bass The program is returning the value of the first expression as "the guitar" but it's returning the value of the second expression as "the" instead of "the bass".

Extracting Bit From Byte?
Feb 14, 2011I am trying to test bit 7 (87654321) in the byte DB2 to check if its true. The below code does not seem to be working:
If DB2 And &H40 = &H40 Then Label1.Visible = True
If DB2 And &H40 = &H0 Then Label1.Visible = False
TextBox6.Text = Hex(DB2 and &h40)
I do see the value of DB2 changing from &h00 to &h40 in the textbox, but when evaluating in the two if statements, it never evaluates to true (for testing, the only possible values for DB2 right now are &h00 and &h40)

Extracting Text From A URL
Jul 21, 2010I realize this may be a simple request, but I am fairly new to VB so even the simplest tasks are sometimes over my head. Basically, what I need is a function that will take a URL from one of the text boxes on my form, and extract a certain piece of text from that URL. The problem, for me, lies in the fact that the text in question isn't always in the same position, character wise, every time. Basically, the URL looks something like this:
url...randomNumbers rarely seems to be the same amount of characters each time, however the randomNumbersINeed always appear after the second underscore and end right before the third underscore, no matter the amount of randonNumbers that appears before hand.The process I am working on does the following:
1. Takes the raw URL that I have pasted into a text box on the form.
2. Declares that text as a string.
3. Extracts randomNumbersINeed from that string
4. Assigns or declares randomNumbersINeed as a string
5. Appends that string to a .txt file.
I can do steps 1, 2, 4, and 5 with no problem, in fact I've already got those set up in my code ready to go. I just need a function that could extract the numbers from the URL.Could someone help me out here or point me in the right direction?

View 2 RepliesExtracting Data From Database
Nov 7, 2010Here is what I did.
1. Went to data source window and clicked "add new data connection"
2. Choose Data Base clicked next
3. Clicked Create Typed UserInformation as the name
4. Next.... Under Data set name I typed UserInformation again
Does naming the database and the data set the same cause problems?
5. Created New Table called users for UserInformation Database.
6. I added the following Columns: FirstName, LastName, Address, and Phone
7. Edited the table to add a couple of people. Tom/Franks/108 blah street/5555555 and Bill/West/109 blah street/5555555.
8. I also reconfigured the data connection in the data source window to show the users table.
I have four labels on my form, a text box, and a button.
I want to be able to search the database by last name for what the user typed into the textbox when they click the button.
I know this is probably easy for all of you but I am still trying to get used to using databases.
Extracting Data From MS Exchange?
Mar 19, 2010I need to convert a VB6 application into VB.Net Windows application. The program pulls data from MS Exchange (UserID, firstname, lastname, etc - not the emails themselves) and places it in a .txt file. The code has been converted, but the program does not work. When the application is run, the .txt file is created, but is blank and I get a pop-up that shows the following, "trying to access email in outlook do you want to allow this?". The popup box is gone in an instant and when I try to click on yes, it does nothing. I always have to end the program as it is non-responsive.

Im trying to get this process as automated as possible, so Im trying not to use 3rd party applications such as pdf file convertors or in-line pdf readers.

Extracting Information From HTML?
Oct 2, 2009The method I'm currently using to extract html and the parse is via a WebBrowser control.I'm grabbing a collection of tags, sorting through the ones I want, and then pulling the innertext.Doing this on my development machine is kind of slow, but manageable. At max, I can go through 60 different web pages across 3 different sites. It takes about 5 mins on my machine.
However, this app is targeted towards machine that have a quarter of the technology that my computer has. So, it takes anywhere from 10-15 minutes. This is less than ideal.I've bee reading up on the documentation on HTTPWebRequest. However, form what I've seen I can't seem to find a way to grab the HTML and then parse it with a method from HTTPWebRequest.
Due to the way I'll be using it, I won't be able to use RegEx to parse the data and was hoping there was a method within the HTTPWebRequest property to do it.

Extracting Integers From A String?
Jan 3, 2012My 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:
