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?
Dim str As String
Dim str2 As Array
str = "blabla duhduh"
str2 = str.Split(" ")

If I change the outer loop to:
For Each str() As String In newdata
It builds ok but I don't get what I want. The outer loop process the elements of newdata as a 1d array and the inner loop sees each character of the strings from the outer loop.So...is there a way to use the for each structure and process a 2d string array? If so, what should I change? If not, what is the best alternative?

If possible I'd like to dynamically at the start of my code be able to add apple, plum, carrot and scotch to the contents of an array (really a combobox) and if I have to had another item to the Enum that it automatically be added to the array.I seem to keep having to add vendor names (replacing produce/liquor) and I need the items to show up in a large project in many places and it's a pain to have to add the item to each every time.
i have an array of 30 strings , the names of the commands send to the serial port, the serial port adresses 16 devices. each device has its own set of commands.
of course i could make subarrays for each device, but for the saving of memory it would be better to use a integer index to name the commands, so like command 0 to 30.
dim command(29) as array of strings.
dim device(7) as array of devices.

View 1 RepliesOk so what i'm trying to do is grab some strings from a list box and put them in an array so i can list them in a message box each index of the array on a new line
So it comes up like this
you ordered :
arrayindex1
arrayindex2
arrayindex3 and so on
The obvious first thought is:
Public Function CheckStrings(ByVal input As String()) As Boolean
For Each s As String In input
If s.Length > 0 Then Return True
Next
Return False
End Function
I'm sure there is a simpler way than that though. At least simpler in terms of the code if not necessarily the performance.
Here's my final code:
<Extension()> _
Public Function AnyNonZero(ByVal value As String()) As Boolean
If Not value.All(Function(x) String.IsNullOrEmpty(x)) Then Return True
Return False
End Function

View 2 RepliesI have an array of strings such as "blue", "green", "red" and I wish to sort them so the longest string comes first and the shortest last.
Currently I am creating another array with the lengths of each string in the array in the same index positions and using this array as the key array to sort by as can be seen below, but I think this could be optimised into one line perhaps?

Edit: just realised I defined colours as a list in the example code, it's an array in my actual code.
