How To Remove Any Word From String
Nov 27, 2009I have a string which contains words with parentheses. I need to remove the whole word from the string.
For example: for the input, "car wheels_(four) klaxon" the result should be, "car klaxon".
I have a string which contains words with parentheses. I need to remove the whole word from the string.

I'm trying to write a function to find a word in a string in the this format : "ThisissometextthatIneedtofindandthisisthetext. This is another text."It's read as " This is some text that I need to find and this is the text. This is another text." but there is no space between each word. I want to get the word "text" or any word in that string. Can you help me with this function with a code sample ?
And I think that this method can be implemented with a string of Unicode also because in a sentence of Unicode it contains one or few, sometimes zero spaces between each word.

I am trying to create a function that searches each line of a richtextbox and returns that row if one of many search phrases are found.The app works wonderfully when used with longer words or muli word phrases as the search criteria.The problem I have is if the search word/ criteria contains a small string such as bae or sp then I get alot of false positives. Anytime bae or sp is found within any word it returns the results.I need the function to stop looking within the words for results and instead look at the word as a whole for a match.Below you can see that I am taking each line of text in the richtextbox, removing most non-alpha numberic characters and replacing them with spaces.Then I have it remove any double spaces with single spaces.For the search term list I have it take the text before the delimiter;and do the same.Trouble I am having is,if the search term is SP and the search phrase is "This is a space shuttle lauch"it will return the sentence since the sentence contains the word "space" which starts with sp.[code]

1- Find a String
2- Create sub-string
3- Erase a portion of a sting
4- Replace a word in the string
5- Count number of words and characters in the string without spaces.
6- Capitalize first character of each new sentence and convert the rest
of the characters to lower case.
7- Sort all the words in alphabetical order. (Use Bubble sort algorithm to perform sorting).
To perform all the above mentioned tasks you can only use pointers. Create a function to perform every task.

This should be simple but apparently it's not. I have a text file, 694 bytes. At byte 500 there's a null in the file. I've tried reading it as text and binary and I end up with a string, 694 bytes long. But anyting I do with this string fails because it appears to stop at character 500. I can do a ? asc(mystring.substring(549,1)) and I get 9 (tab). Print character 550 and I get 0. Print character 551 and I get 32 (space). How do I get rid of this null?
