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]

I have a concatenated string like...
str= 1010,5050,6079
And want to separate the string In Javascript I can do
string = Srt.split(","):
and the result...
string[2]=5050
Is there a way to do this in VB.NET?

I am writing a tool that logs stats for a first person shooter game. The game writes its information (including who killed who with which weapon) to a log file, which I read every so many seconds and parse so that I can write that information to a database.I am now having trouble parsing the weapon out of that string of information.
Some additional information is required: a weapon in this game can contain attachments (such as a scope, a grenade launcher, etc). Weapons can have either 1 or 2 attachments. Some weapons however cannot have any attachments at all.
Each log file entry that describes a kill contains a code that describes the weapon that was used. This code is a concatenation of either 3 or 4 parts:
<weapon>_<attachment>_mp
<weapon>_<attachment1>_<attachment2>_mp
where <weapon> is a code that describes a weapon and <attachment> is another code describing the attachment.This should be easy to parse by just splitting along the underscore characters, but there's a few catches:
1. Some attachments are able to kill players as well. Specifically: grenade launchers, flame throwers and underbarrel shotguns. In this case, the attachment is listed before the weapon:
<attachment>_<weapon>_mp Note also that in this case there is always only 1 attachment.
2. The biggest catch: some weapon names have an underscore in them (some even have 3 underscores)! So simply splitting along the underscore won't work in all cases; if the weapon name contains an underscore I'm splitting the name of the weapon..This makes the list of possible combinations a lot longer. The ones I can think of (I think these are all):

I have a dictionary that I want to access with a key that is the combination of a string (AcctNum) and a date (BalDate).It seems to me the simplest approach is to create the key by simply converting the date to a string and concatenating:MyKey = BalDate.ToString & "|" & AcctNum
I know I also have the option of creating a composite key by writing a separate class and overriding GetHashCode() and Equals() a la this solution. To me, the concatenated string is a simpler, if somewhat less elegant, solution. Am I missing some compelling reason why I should go with the composite key class approach?
This lookup is the crux of the project I am working on, so performance is my main objective (with readability a close second).

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

This is probably quite a simple question, but I can't remember how to do it off hand.I have an e-mail address of "foo@bar.com".I want to grab the @ and everything after it and then I'll be adding a prefix to the front of the address as I go.
I'm just wonderng how I get hold of the @bar.com from the string?
I know I should know how to do this as this is a really simple operation.

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".

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.

I am trying an encrypting exercise which takes the txtmessage and encrypts it in characterarray.IStartAt is the starting point and by taking one character at a time from txtmessage I need to insert it in characterarry allowing a gap in between which is IUseGap. KeyGap and Keyfirst will be the next two characters after txtmessage and when insert have no gap in between.I think the logic I done is good however, I get syntax errors on the red lines.[code]

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?

I thought you could use a structure as a container. I have line_1 with a line of data read in from a file. I only want to Look in position 1 of the line and position 8 for 9 and position 31 for 11. If I create a line_2 with the parts broken out for pieces that I want to look at then I could use a with statement right?

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.

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

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:

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.
