More String Manipulation

Jun 6, 2010

im working on a small application that lets you input a phone number with "-" hyphens, and then copy that number to a label control minus the hyphens. So for instance 111-234-567 would become 111234567, i have accomplished this using the string.

replace command, however i was wandering if it would be possible to iterate through the string with a for next loop looking for the hyphens and then removing them with the string.

remove command, ive spent nearly 5 hrs trying to get the code to work, but to no avail, no errors are being thrown up, but the hyphens still display along with the number, i am currently teaching myself, and its a sloooooooow process. here is my unsucessful code

Output Name Using String Manipulation / Concatenated

Aug 15, 2011

I'm suppose to end up with a label box with my name spelled out in it using string manipulation. This is suppose to happen using the concatenated string to output the name into the label box. I don't have any error codes but I also don't have my name in the label either. [code] "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. [code]

String Manipulation - Caps To Only One Letter

Oct 6, 2010

So I have a string "New". What is the simplest way to convert that string to "New". Basically right now I'm doing this:

Case "NEW"
makes = connector.GetMakesByYear(_AuthorizationKey, "NewCar", CDate(Now), Year)
Case "USED"
makes = connector.GetMakesByYear(_AuthorizationKey, "UsedCar", CDate(Now), Year)

And I would prefer not to use a case statement because it's only one parameter that needs to change, and both are appended with "Car".

String Manipulation By Hiding And Showing

The idea is simple, if I have a string value "ABCD" then with a ButtonClick event it should randomly reveal a char while others are hidden. i.e, "B*" another click would "AB**" and so on. So far, my I have been stuck in a for loop.

Conceptual / Rule Implementation / String Manipulation

Dec 29, 2011

So I'm working on a software in VB.Net where I need to scrape information and process it according to rules. For example, simple string replace rules like making "Det" into "Detached" for a specific field, or a split/join rule, basic string operations. All my scraping rules are RegEx and I store them in a database in rows of rule sets for different situations.What is the best way behind creating/storing rules to manipulate text? I do not want to hardcode the rules into the software, but rather be able to add more as there will be a need for them. I want to store them in a database, but then how do I interpret them?

Fractional Part Of Doubles Without Using String Manipulation?

Jun 24, 2011

Is there a way to get the fraction parts of a Double without using string manipulations? Specifically in vb.net?

There are numerous examples for a decimal in various languages. One for vb.net is this one

Basically they all seem to use either a mod or Truncate method or they take advantage of casting to integer behavior. But none of those approaches will work for a double/float type due to the inherent inaccuracy of the double/float type. There is also the problem that doubles don't cast to decimals reliably. Below is a test case to show what I mean and expect.

Public Class BasicNumberTests
Function DecimalFractionalPart(ByVal number As Decimal) As Decimal

String / Array Manipulation - How To See If Field Contains Comma

Nov 7, 2011

VB.NET 2010/ASP.NET 4. I am using a web service which returns a string like this:
US,"UNITED STATES",MN,MINNESOTA,"MAPLE GROVE",45.1234,-93.4947,613,763,AMERICA/CHICAGO,NA,55311,"COMCAST CABLE","COMCAST CABLE",COMCAST.NET,"AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC",CABLE/DSL,RESIDENTIAL,3,99,35,96,,

If I split by comma it's usually fine except in the above string I have the following:
"AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC"
Which contains a comma and splits into two. This I don't want.

How to see if this field (array(15)) contains a comma & if it does to leave it intact into one array field? It's always constant in the same place in the array

Example:
(14) = COMCAST.NET
(15) = "AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS"
(16) = "INC"
(17) = CABLE/DSL

But I wish to keep it so it's:
(14) = COMCAST.NET
(15) = "AS13367 COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC"
(16) = CABLE/DSL

String Manipulation - Split Lines To 3 New RichTextboxes

Apr 23, 2012

I have a Richtextbox with many lines. The data is as follow:
[Z=100, A=10, B=20, C=100]
[Z=100, A=33, B=50, C=255]
I want to split the lines to 3 new Richtextboxes, with the A, B and C values + the line number. Should maybe not be so hard, but I got stuck.

This code extracts the A, but obvious only the first line.
Dim values As String
values = RtbAll.Text
Dim Rawdata As String() = Nothing
Rawdata = values.Split(","c)
Dim s As Integer
For s = 0 To Rawdata.GetUpperBound(0)
RtbRed.Text = (Rawdata(1) & Environment.NewLine)

String Manipulation And Preventing Variable Destruction?

Oct 17, 2009

I've made a class that's supposed to manipulate strings in a textbox to turn them into integers and let the cursor return to the place it was before a character was removed. It seems to work fine as far I've been able to figure out, but when I use it from the TextChanged event things go wrong. The problem is that when the class is finished and the corrected string is written back into the textbox, the TextChanged event is fired again. That on itself is not the worst problem as it runs too quick to notice, but the disadvantage is that a variable needed is destroyed with the class after it's finished the first time, resulting in the cursor ending up in the wrong place at the left of the textbox after it's run for the second time.I've been thinking of 3 solutions, but none of them I've been able to find out how to put it in code or even if they are possible:

Unformat A Phone Number Using String Manipulation?

Apr 27, 2011

I need to take a fully formated number:

Ex: (111)-111-1111

And take out all the none integer characters, such as parens, hyphens, and spaces.So far I have:

sNumber = txtNumber.Text
If sNumber.Contains("-") Then
sFixed = Replace(sNumber, "-", "")
lblNumberOut.Text = sFixed

[code]....

sNumber and sFixed are both declared class/global level. The thing is, I've made two separate if's, i've made the second one an elseif, It just only enacts one if statement, such as only taking out the hyphens and not taking out the parens, or vice versa. I'm thinking i need to declare multiple sFixed (sFixed1,2,3, etc) but that seems terribly inefficient.

Use Of Variables Across Several Forms In Application - String Manipulation?

May 5, 2010

I am a beginner trying to write code. I am creating an application that is a questionaire with 3 forms that have questions for the user with text boxes, list boxes, and check boxes for response. Some of the text boxes with the user response are on different forms. Will that cause me problems? I would like to write code that will combine a literal string with responses from text boxes and string snippets which are inserted based on check box condition. I think I would like to create the string to be printed to a RichTextBox and then output to peripheral printer. How do I make inserting or not inserting a string based on check box condition? How can I trim the response string to allow a output string without annoying extra spaces and such?

Achieve CSS With Constant Values , Arithmetic And String Manipulation?

Mar 30, 2012

When developing ASP.NET websites (using VB.NET web forms) - a lot of my time is spend writing CSS files and they always seem to get messy (code duplication) and very long.

All I want to achieve is to be able to manipulate the CSS using VB.NET code in the following ways:

Use an integer variable to store my "golden" number 7 and use that for width, padding, margin etc where needed
Use string variables to store my "golden" hex color codes e.g. "#44C5F2" and use them for color, background-color, border-color etc. where needed Use an integer variable to set the height of an element and have four child elements each with height: mynum / 4

I just want to use basic VB.net number and string manipulation in order to create a CSS file on the fly.

I understand that the end product - the CSS file shouldn't change much - it should at most change on a daily basis otherwise caching couldn't be used.[code]...
