I am writing some code which needs me to parse the integer from a string. For example:
Dim str as String = "300ML"
I need to store the 300 to an Integer and discard the "ML" from the end. I can't seem to find a sensible way of doing this other than using RegEx. However, for the life of me I can not get my head around RegEx.
I am trying to parse several strings to integers where I both tried cINT(string) and Integer.Parse(string) but it seemed to fail at the string 'h1', I think I need to use substring for this, but as the input can be different decided by the user, it is kinda impossbile to use substring, as I do not know how to locate the integer in the string..
View 10 RepliesI have a LINQ2Entity problem, I want to get the value, string, from a database, so I select FProducts.Serial_number, and to end the query, I do .ToDictionary. The problem is, it tells me that it doesn't have sufficient parameters, to convert ToDictionary. So I need something like select FProducts.Serial_number, Nothing). ToDictionary. Also FProducts.Serial_number, 0).ToDictionary doesn't work.

I have a field that I display via: String.Format({0:c},amount) This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception: amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency) I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?
View 2 RepliesI have written a program that uses an array of the english alphabet and Morse code. I also built a form with a input box for the alphabetic information and an output box with the Morse Code. What i am trying to do is basically type a word like "Hi" in the input box and produce the Morse Code equivalent in the Morse Code output box. [Code] This works but only one letter at a time. Do i need to Parse the string of characters one at a time, and then run it through a loop like i have created?

View 4 RepliesWhat i need to do is parse an integer to a "library" of co-ordinates. This integer allows for a random co-ordinate to be chosen. The "Library" i mentioned is shown below

return "(0,0)"

How can this be done?I am either looking to convert the string "(0,0)" to grid(0,0) or can use another method to lookup the co-ordinates.
I am making a change to an existing process. Currently the csv file (which can have embedded "," with the field in quotes), i being passed as an
IO.StreamReader parameter pStreamReader.
dim vLine as string = pStreamReader.ReadLine
dim vFields () as String = vLine.Split(","c)
Well ... obviously the split does not work with embedded commas in a field. Looked at TextFieldParser, but it is in the FileIO class and the module is passed a IO.StreamReader. Can it work?
Or how abour a RegEx? Does anyone have any suggestions? I have look around on the internet and it seems like a common questions with a bunch of wild goose chases.

I would like to parse a string to extract embedded parameters. [code]...

I would like to use the ParseQueryString()method which works fine with equal signs and no spaces. Does anyone know if this method can work with other delimiters and spaces?
I am writing a VB.NET application which needs to extract data from an XML document. The Dataset.ReadXML function would be suitable, if the XML document was held in a disk file. However I would prefer the XML document to be passed via a string property of my class object, not as a disk file.
Is there a way to make the ReadXML function take its input from a string instead of a file ? If not, are there other functions which can be made to parse XML which is held as a string.?

I need to parse and separate input strings using VB.NET. Split method works in Example 1, but my problem is when I need to "skip" a space if the following value isn't in the list like Example2. My code works as expected for String1 using Split, but it fails my needs when it outputs EXT1000 and 3 as individual values - they should be part of the original string if not found in the list.I would prefer to keep it in Linq if possible. Generate some type of collection to be used for later manipulation. The main output will end up with a For Each "Results" WriteLine in text file.
